A young noble Rishe Weitzner gets her engagement to the Crown Prince annulled. This is the seventh time it happened. She is stuck within the time loop. No matter whatever job she takes up or the location, she ends up dead at 20, five years after the annulment.
This time she catches the eye of Prince Arnold of the neighboring Galkhein Kingdom, who becomes smitten with her at first sight. He was the source of a world war , pestilence, resource depletion & even direct murder in all her previous loops.
Rebecca Silverman from Anime News Network praised the heroine, artwork & the story, calling it unique.
Leaving out the few gory moments in the beginning, it is a soft, sweet love story. It has a couple of hidden gems. Like the hero, it turns from good to better.
The heroine’s risk taking steps allow us to enter the palace, move around & get a few snippets which we value today.
A delight to watch.
