The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady
24 March 2023
This series is set in the Kingdom of Palettia, a nation where the ruling classes can use magic. Our protagonist is Princess Anisphia Wynn Palettia, Anis for short. She loves magic but can't use it herself. Instead she uses the scientific skills she remembers from her previous life, on Earth. One day she learns that her brother has ended his engagement to Euphyllia. She had been due to be the next monarch but following accusations she loses the position. Anis befriends her. Together they will have to work hard to re-establish Euphyllia's reputation.

I thought this was a decent enough series. The characters are rather fun and there is some enjoyable action. The story is enjoyable while watching but ultimately felt forgettable amongst all the other series in the crowded fantasy genre. I found the earlier episodes, where we got to know the characters to be more fun than the somewhat cliché conflict in the later episodes; it did have a good finale at least. Now it has finished airing viewers won't have to wait a week between episodes which is obviously a bonus. The yuri elements add some originality and it manages to avoid being salacious. Overall I'd say this is worth watching if you enjoy the genre, it isn't a must see though.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.
