Thing is, the story starts out great! You quickly get the sense that this is basically going to be "Sassuga Mia-sama!": The Series. And they really work the joke, while making FMC believably flawed. Just because her personality got her killed once, doesn't mean she's suddenly going to pull a 180. She's mean, childish, and manipulative, and this time around, she has her execution as a fantastic excuse to be that way. The issue is that somehow the show peters out as time goes on, with issues coming to a head in Episode 8. I can't put my finger on it, but after seeing her failing upwards for three quarters of the series, I'm not invested enough in seeing her do the same for five more episodes in even less believable circumstances. If this series had ended at episode 7, I'd give it a 5 and move on happily.
