    Romantic Beginnings, Fantasy Ending

    My Happy Marriage started off with high marks all around. The art was detailed, the music was haunting, the emotions portrayed were delicate... I think I got teary eyed almost every episode in the first half of the series.

    If this had been the main premise, I would have rated almost 9!

    The premise is a girl, abused by her family, was bequeathed to another family as a bride. The romance that began subsequently was gentle and touching.

    However, there is another angle. In this universe, there are people with superpowers. These superpowers are inherited genetically. The girl is from a long line of powerful genes that everybody apparently wants. The second half of the series focuses on this. As a result, the powerful love story turns into a dragonball type fantasy fighting story. Sorry to say, but I suffered through the final episodes only to complete the series. The romantic drama at the beginning was enough to make the story... the action fantasy towards the end seems to be an entirely different genre/story... a little of a pity.

    Touching and loving

    This show was a blast from start to end. The animation was beautiful as well as the characters are all good the only characters that I don't like are Miyos mother and her sister they were super cruel and (mostly her sister) psychotic. I felt super happy when Miyo over came her past and was able to move on and be happy I also really liked Lord Kudo he was serious yet kind and caring in the inside which was nice. Also it was crazy when the show was about two characters in a complex relationship then turned to deep lore about the characters (mostly miyo though. I absolutely recommend this show you will definitely like it.

    Better than I thought it was going to be

    This is my very first anime and I have to admit that it was way better than I thought it was going to be. What intrigued me first was the title and then the story from watching the trailer. It had a Cinderella kind of story and I love Cinderella, so I thought I would give it a chance. I have only watched three episodes and I am loving it soo much that I can't wait for next week's episode. I wish I could binge watch the whole series, that's how much I love it. I kind of wish this anime could be a series with real people, but then I don't know if the storyline or the characters could be captured so beautifully as in the anime. I can't wait to finish seeing it!

    I wanted to try something romantic

    (Watched: 6th-8th April 2025) I recently got to watch this Shojo anime as lots of posts flooded social media about it and I wanted to try something romantic. Well, it was basically the Cinderella story by reference.

    💞 Story Summary: It is about Miyo and her soon-to-be husband Kiyoka Kudou, slowly falling for each other.

    Not only is it a historical romance, but there is something more to it: fantasy.

    ✨ What to Expect: Strong female lead Slow-burning romance Emotional depth Supernatural aspects like magic and psychic powers

    Family drama and personal growth

    🎯 Final Thoughts: This one is mainly geared toward the girl demographic. Nevertheless, anyone who enjoys a soft, emotional romance with fantasy woven in should give this a try. Definitely a one-time watch.

    Rating: 7/10.

    Try it out if you're looking for a peaceful and heartfelt story. 🌸

    A beautiful anime with a beautiful cinderella like story

    I've been watching anime for so many years, at first I thought it will be a very cringe type anime but after seeing the first two episodes I was stunned and too curious to stop. I went and read the manga, and it is beautiful and a story I can not wait to see the rest of anime. Anime is better and well improved compared to manga and soft novels. Manga only has 23 chapters released but they are all beautiful too. I really wish to get this series thrive, as it is indeed one of the depicted anime. Story is unique, it is soft yet so beautiful.

    I would even watch a live action drama for this story line but I don't think they will be able to capture the sci-fi and magical stuff as good as the anime. I've really high hopes for this series.
