"REVIEW TILL EPISODE 12"
Story is about Wein Salema Arbalest a prince who wants to laze around and in order to do so he must sell his country which is small, literally has no means of income, almost no fertile land and almost winter all year. But his talent and bad luck ( good luck for the country ) doesn't allow him to do so.This is because he is the extremely capable heir to the throne of his country Natra and is lauded as a genius (which is actually true). But whenever he finds a way to make the country enough money and thinks he can sell it for e.g., after winning a war against another country, something disastrous happens ( for him) which makes him unable to do so. But every time he fails (in selling his country) he gains acknowledgement of the people of his country due to his achievements (as a ruler) who care for him very much (Obviously they don't know he wants to betray the country).
The main heroine Ralei Ninym has white hair an red eyes, which are characteristic of the Fram people. She is the childhood friend and assistant to the protagonist (the prince) she knows about his secret plant to sell off his kingdom and brushes it off every time the topic comes up and also the only one who knows his true nature. She is the caretaker of the lazy prince meaning she makes sure that he does the duties required as the crown prince. The prince cares for her calling her his "HEART" an has decided to kill anyone who dares to insult her. She has a teasing side, constantly teasing Wein, usually to bring down his ego and she also has a caring side, doing whatever she can to help Wein on his duties.
Falanya Elk Abralestyounger sister of Wein Salema Arbalest. She has long brown hair with yellow eyes and has a cheerful and energetic personality. She adores her brother very much and wish he would spend more time with her. She also adores Ninym and wishes Wein to marry her.
Lowellmina Earthworldis the second imperial princess of the Earthworld Empire. She was schoolmates with the protagonist during his time at the military school . She has blonde and has blue eyes . She's naturally intellectual and cunning similar to that of the prince and hates the patriarchal society and wants to become the ruler of her nation and wants the protagonists help to do so. She has a good relationship with both main characters.
Overall the story is simple and revolves around how the prince rebuilds his kingdom from nothing and is funny as well having good comedy scenes . They have hired good voice actors who are making the characters both serious, funny and likeable with their great control in their voice according to the situation in the scenes and the opening song is also good .
Till now the Yokohama Animation Lab has done a good job in animating this story as most of their work is average at best.They started off this show on a good note and hope they don't ruin it at the end.
After watching till the 9th episode i felt that they rushed the story in episodes 6 and 7. It felt like they wanted to finish the arc as soon as possible and enter a new arc.
When entering the new arc in episode 8 and 9 they slowed down again and started to properly build up the story again. The story became much more interesting as they started focusing on the development of a supporting Character(Falanya Elk Abralestyounger sister of Wein Salema Arbalest) and not just focusing on the main characters as I feel that good story develops both the main and side characters.
I thought that the episode from episode 10 was going slow and in detail, but the last episode was too fast and the fight with the King of Soljest was different from the Light Novel.
So in the end I have given it a rating of 6/10. If they hadn't fast paced it it would still have the score of 7 which i put in initially.
For those who want to watch this show it does not contain any form of Magic , but is interesting in its own way because it focused on Strategy and comedy.
