This is a topic Iâm revisiting after my first theory about the royal familyâs magic was shown to be dismally wrong (I said that it might be light and black magic in my post, The Obelian Royal Family: The Heir). But what is their magic? Well, letâs review what we know so far: 1. Strong magicians are said to âfreezeâ their hearts because emotions can cause them … Continue reading The Obelian Royal Family and Magic
I remember finding Daughter of the Emperor about a year ago and reading late into the night to catch up on the 80+ (maybe even 100+ at that point) chapters that were already out. I loved it then–but now its been a year and Iâm growing impatient. Letâs jump into why: The story begins much like other reincarnated-as-a-princess stories of the isekai genre–in childhood. Daughter … Continue reading Taking Too Long: A Review and Critique of Daughter of the Emperor
A lingering question I have following the series… I wonder why no one considered Edna to be a bastard child or hidden daughter of King Ducaine. I mean, the story was easily set up for the possibility of Edna being viewed as a lost twin to Edan when a few characters recognize her as identical to âPrince Edan,â like Kain and McFadden never reach this … Continue reading Side Note for Light & Shadow Series
Summary:Â Light & Shadow is about a princess whose kingdom has fallen. Princess Edna, raised as Prince Edan, kept her gender a secret growing up, especially from her father whose rule as king was best known for his cruelty and lack of leadership. She waited for her eventual succession of the throne while growing up, with plans to forever keep her gender a secret and aspirations … Continue reading Light & Shadow: Defining Nobility
Please like and share this post! Currently unlicensed in English (BUT NEEDS TO BE). You can see the Korean version here. According to the baka-updates, the manga has over 100 chapters out and according to me, this series deserves more attention, more love, and more translations! I read a lot, I mean a lot, of stories, particularly of the isekai genre lately, and this by … Continue reading Spirit King Elqueeness: Review, Analysis, & A Plea for More
If youâre reading this, you might have already read some of my many other posts on Who Made Me A Princess, particularly the post I made on Claude and Athanasiaâs father-daughter dynamic. In this analysis, I want to discuss how their relationship is shifting in the opening chapters of Season 2. Last time, I said that I thought Claudeâs personality was appearing in Athanasia, âThis aside, … Continue reading The Obelian Royal Family: Claude and Athanasia, Revisited
theanimeview: theanimeview: In chapter 45 we see the hint of something Athanasia asked Claude forâI believe that she asked for a portrait of them together. Here is why: First, in chapter 45, we see what is very likely to be the feet of an aisle twice:Â I havenât seen much discussion about the gift before, but thatâs my theory.

Okay, holy smokes. I just read chapter 47 and how shocking! Claude is suddenly acting all cold like he was in the book, and I wonder if itâs because he lost a good amount of magic or because of some curse that has been hinted to earlier. It might be a while before we find out completely, but–in the meantime–letâs look at the imagery of … Continue reading Chapter 47
By: Peggy Sue Wood |Â @peggyseditorial I unexpectedly became ill at the end of Day 2, so I missed the last half of the convention, but while I was still there I had a blast! The lines this year were as long as the last time I went, but this time there wasn’t as much of a claustrophobia-inducing-feeling from being crowded into a tight space during … Continue reading Anime Expo 2019 Review
