7th Time Loop has a well executed balance of comedy, drama, and romance. The animation and sound editing are excellent. The voice acting is fine, unfortunately it is currently just English Subtitles. This charming story has similarities to "Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke's Mansion" and I expect people who like one will like the other. However, I enjoy "7th Time Loop" the most.
The main character is Rishe Weitzner, who was raised by her parents to marry the local prince. When the prince suddenly falls for another woman and cancels their engagement, he accuses Rishe of false crimes and her parents reject her. Abandoned and homeless, Rishe strikes out to start a new life of her own making.
The story only gives brief flashbacks, but we learn that Rishe has previously lived 6 times until the age of 20. She chose widely different lives, yet each one ended with premature death caused in some way by Arnold Hein, Crown Prince of the Hyne Kingdom.
Rishe is now in her 7th time loop, and this time (after being dumped again) she becomes engaged to her mortal enemy - Arnold Hein. As the story progresses, she tries to understand the causes behind Arnold's cold harsh personality and tries to change his circumstances so she won't die in the future. She is also determined to live a fulfilling life, regardless of when she might die.
Arnold Hein looks at Rishe as a self-determined free spirit and watches her living a happy life he wishes he could have. His real feelings for her grow, yet Rishe assumes they are just an act.
Careful writing creates a unique blend of comedy, romance, tension between future killer and victim, and mysterious psychological trauma in the royal family.
This is not fluff, but it is not so heavy-handed that you will find it depressing. I highly recommend it. If you want the full story in English, seek out the translated light novel series, or even the manga adaption.
