The premise of the story isn't complex nor complicated. Previously stated the show is just like Cinderella and Miyo found her prince charming in the form of Kiyoko Kudo who is my favorite character. He does come as a mean and cold person at first but he is actually a nice and cares so much for Mio. Their interactions started off as very one sided and slow but as the episodes went on we saw their interactions becoming more and more like they're already a married couple.
The main point of the story is seeing Mio breaking free from her tragic past and moving on to find happiness. Miyo is probably the type of character who will forgive people who hurt her so badly and I won't be surprised if she gave her step mother and her step sister so easily after all that she went through in that household but that's what her character really is. She's very obedient and is willing to forgive people who treated her badly.
One of the anime's most notable characteristics is its supernatural elements. The Supernatural Fantasy elements isn't just for show. It tells a story of how each character's ability works and how it connects to their past life and and it is the main driving source of conflict. My favorite part of the fantasy element was seeing Kudo solely destroy everyone in the Saimori household to rescue Miyo. It shows how strong and badass he is. Tbh I think he's OP and probably the strongest character in the show just saying.
The most and probably the most important characteristic of the show is the realism and the portrayal of trauma. Th constant abuse and mistreatment Miyo received in the Saimori household made her really timid to the point that she always apologizes for something that she couldn't have avoided. Speaking her mind was even challenging for her as she is scared that something will happen to her if speaks what's on her mind. Kiyoka noticed this very early in the anime and realized that she had been through a lot and thankfully he really was patient with her and didn't force her to open. He allowed her to take her time to slowly build confidence and become a new person. Patience is key when dealing with someone suffering from trauma and PTSD. Use the right methods and do not go beyond what your limit is
The animation was very bright, beautiful and colorful. The character's eyes, and facial expressions were very much on point. An the OP was amazing and a total masterpiece.
Watashi no Shiawase na Kekkon (My Happy Marriage) is a great anime that manages to effectively execute romance and combine it with supernatural elements. I didn't think I would enjoy the anime and this is the first fantasy romance anime I've watched. I guess I will be looking for more fantasy romance anime to watch and overall I found the anime to be a beautiful masterpiece.
