Crunchyroll provides a tantalizing glimpse into the anime’s narrative:
“Surprise! I have a head, and oh my, I’m youthful!” Meet Princess Mia, aged twenty, from the Tearmoon Empire. Often labeled the “selfish princess,” she met her demise at the hands of a guillotine during a rebellion. However, her story doesn’t end there. Awakening within her twelve-year-old self, a blood-stained diary – a relic of her past – rests beside her pillow. This second lease on life propels Mia to a grand endeavor: rebuilding the empire.
Is her motivation rooted in Tearmoon’s future? Perhaps to stave off famine’s grasp or to honor fallen soldiers from the civil war? Not quite! Every move she makes in this new life is a strategic dance, ingeniously designed to avoid the ominous guillotine.
With an indomitable spirit, the seemingly inept and self-preserving princess engineers one remarkable feat after another, all in a daring quest to rewrite her destiny in this captivating alternate-history fantasy.
Mochitsuki embarked on the novel’s journey via the Shōsetsuka ni Narō platform back in August 2018. TO Books brought the tales to print, adorning them with Gilse’s intricate illustrations, beginning in June 2019. The enchanting narrative also spawned a manga adaptation by Mizu Morino, with its debut volume hitting shelves in January 2020.
