Tearmoon Teikoku Monogatari ~Dantoudai kara Hajimaru, Hime no Tensei Gyakuten Story~ - Vol. 10 Ch. 46

This is arguably one of the most depressing arcs in the LN. Especially once we get to the dark bits of the Bad End Timeline.

Weird to think we just passed the anime's first season

I was checking with the light novel for my bit earlier, and there was none of that in there. Could have been something originally in the web novel the author didn't like and scrapped it when moving things into the light novel. The event is the exact same in the light novel as it is in the manga

Its been a while since I read the light novels as well, but this is a detail I don't think was there either.

I think the Remno revolution arc is Tearmoon's weakest arc, but the student council election arc is nearly as bad as it. It's the arcs after that that really get the ball rolling since we finally get more details about what they're really up against, and the greater worldbuilding sets up the stakes.

The student council election arc also doesn't have much in the way of interesting happenings, but I still remember it fondly due in part of it having one of my favourite: "Mia gives up and turns her brain off and yet the universe still somehow bullshits its way into making things work for her." moments in the series, and also due to it having one of the scenes that sets up the foundation for Mia's more in-depth relationship and further exploration of Rafina's psyche and character.

I'm glad that I got this recommended! I binged read all the chapters and I absolutely love and adora Mia-sama!
Shes cute and funny absolutely hilarious when she gets all smug. And I like how shes sweet on Abel and feels happy when hes with her even though she doesn't realize that shes in love with him.

But man... After reading some spoilers about her bad end and her eventual execution... I don't know but feel, angry? Infuariated? Pissed off? Like if you take off the comedic glasses her life in prison before her death is just absolutely depressing.
She got verbally abused, physically abused by the guards pulling her hair and punching her, humiliated like how the guard shoved the food she disliked into her mouth. And with her only light being Anne whenever she visited.
If this wasn't Shoujo, but Josei/Seinen and mature themed, you know they would have done a lot more darker things to her...

What the heck, we don't get to see the famine after all these build-up? We go straight to her great grand daughter?

Don't worry, the EN TL'd LN has just barely gotten to the famine. The manga has a looooong way to go before it gets to the famine.

Oh, thanks for the info! As long as the famine is going to happen, the journey to reach there is just as entertaining. Maybe more build up too?
