The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess is a feel good isekai about an iNteReStiNg royalty who loves magic. Nothing stands out particularly but what can I say, I loved this manga and I had a great time. And if you like yuri, isekai, and otome like me I think there's a high chance you will too.
As a fluffy magic isekai, if you've read Mushuku Tensei, or the shouta magic geek one, you know what to expect. Stronk quirky mc, crisp artstyle, the plot is well-paced, there are almost no stakes, and the vibes are of a nice casual sol. Not too standoutish but nevertheless, the cute FLs were enough to carry the story and keep me interested.
Euphy is a perfect sheltered lady who has spent her life accomodating stupid nobles, an polar opposite of Anis who is a unhinged magic freak who has only been doing whatever shennanigans she wants. They have a fate encounter in chapter 1 after which a lot of the manga is focused on developing their relationship which is very very precious. It's a Utena-Anthy dynamic we're not at all unfamiliar with but what works works.
Euphy learns to express her feelings and support Anis out of her own free will, while Anis grows fond of the found companionship she never had befor
e. Magic theory side characters, action every other plot device is built only as to support the main character dynamic, which in my opinion was a great decision not many mangakas make anymore.
You see, other isekai might place focus on magic systems, power levels, booba fanservice, braindead harem, side characters no one cares about, imperialist bs, overpowering the mc, discussing kitchen sink ethics, cardboard villains or drama etc etc. MRotRP strips the genre down to its core and gives me the only fantasy I really want which is to be loved. It is a good reminder of how enjoyable isekai can be without the cheap gimmicks we have grown accustomed to. Further positive, the choice for a mary sue female lead rather than a op/edgy/pervy/oblivious male lead helped me self insert without feeling like a pathetic incel.
I mostly focus on the negatives Magical Revolution managed to avoid rather than the good things about it, but I really can't help it. I've read a good number of isekai already so nothing stands out anymore. The best compliment I can give Reincarnated Princess is that in 21 chapters I didn't find a single dull or obnoxious panel, and I'm certain that I won't be bored if the main focus continues to be the romance. When it comes to isekai, for me, these 3 volumes are as good as it gets.
