Sinopse:
Jill Savelle—fiancée of the crown prince Gerald der Kratos and known as the "Lady Goddess of War"—is being hunted down by the same country she swore to protect. Betrayed by her betrothed, she is framed as a traitor and imprisoned. In her last moments, Jill is filled with regret, but just as death approaches, she awakens six years in the past. This time, she will not be a mere pawn.
Now as a 10-year-old girl, Jill resolves to escape her imminent engagement to the prince. To this end, she jokingly professes her love to the 19-year-old dragon emperor Hadis Teos Rave, who will one day stain the land in blood due to madness. But against all expectations, he accepts!
In contrast to the tyrant from Jill's memories, the Hadis of this time is a kind albeit unfortunate emperor. Can Jill prevent Hadis from descending down the same dark, villainous road, or is he bound to an inevitable future?

interesting premise and semi-decent plot ruined by weird ages and character writing this show honestly in plot wasn't awful. some of the characters were decently written and the premise was intriguing. the main problem is the plot trying to explain away a very much grown 19 year old man marrying a 10 year old. just disgusting no matter how you slice it. i understand the backstory and reasoning for it to be that way, however what reason does the author have to make it that way? there could've been literally any other requirement for the goddess to possess someone, and yet they chose anyone over 14.just seems wholly unnecessary to the story at large and sets the whole vibe of the story back quite a bit. whether or not Jill is mentally in the same age group is irrelevant given that no one knows she went back in time and even then, she was only 16 in her first run so that's still highly questionable. aside from that, the villains seemed almost cartoonishly evil and something just feels missing to me. overall, it could've been a good show but was immediately run into the ground by the writers taking a weird route with the ages.

This one started off pretty strong with a solid female lead and an interesting premise, but it quickly fell into way too many clichés. Honestly, it just didn’t work for me. Jill's character felt all over the place—like, she couldn’t decide what kind of person she wanted to be. The prince was just as weird and didn’t add much to the story either. The world-building was weak, which made it hard to get invested in the setting or the stakes. And don’t even get me started on the timeline—it felt so off and hard to follow at times. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend thisone. It had potential, but it didn’t deliver. If you’re looking for a strong female character and a well-structured story, you’re better off skipping this.

Ok, I will start with how good this show is, and only then address The Problem. The show is extremely good, and undoubtedly is a hidden gem that is lost because of unnecessary Puritan nagging! A lot of time has passed since I've watched something that dynamic. Sometimes plot twists turn the tables by 180 degrees TWICE or even TRICE a minute! The action is just breathtaking, and the authors don't think of the viewers as dummies, they say just enough to get what needs to be gotten. Sometimes I felt a need to rewind a scene, and I felt that it was not because ofthe lack of details but because of the lack of attention. And I am grateful to the creators for respecting me that much and for the abstinence from overexplaining. Partially, that is the same genre as One Punch Man or Overlord, but even here it makes the job better! Because, besides the sweet feeling that the Emperor will always crush his enemies, you still have a whole lot to worry about. Jill is still struggling, and yet, your and her main worry is that the Emperor becomes a bad guy. This ultrahero anime made the same thing The Eminence in Shadow did, but saw it through to the end!
And guess what? Just when you start getting tired of action, this anime gives you an opportunity to rest! It brings you quite a good comedy break for around one episode. It's not a masterpiece comedy, but just enough, no, I'd say just perfect to catch your breath and be ready for new vertiginous adventures!
Now, let me tell you my two words about the 'relationships problem'. The main characters certainly didn't have physical closeness. The idea was not to seduce a child, but to nurture relationships emotionally, preparing for the future life. I get it that people are triggered. And I love how they were triggered, because by breaking contemporary stereotypes, sometimes you find something correct. I truly believe that their relationships are an ideal example of how young lads and ladies should make an engagement, foreshadowed by the good, and not the bad, examples of historical contract marriages.
As one of the commentators already mentioned, please seek Therapy if you had immoral feelings during the watch.

The anime could’ve been a solid fantasy series. The time-rewind trope always carries promise: a protagonist gets a second shot at life, learning from their past mistakes. But instead of focusing on clever plot twists or character growth, the story shoots itself in the foot by making weird romance its main trope. The core issue is the relationship between Jill, the 10-year-old protagonist, and Rave, the 19-year-old male lead. The romantic undertones between them aren’t just weird—they’re deeply unsettling. Dialogue like “It would’ve been better if you were 2-3 years younger” raises red flags immediately. Why in the world would a grown man wish forsomeone even younger than 10? It doesn’t stop there, either. Rave openly calls Jill his “ideal” and constantly tries to coax romantic feelings out of her, despite her being a literal child.
The weird romance overshadows everything else, which is a shame because the premise had potential.
It’s not just the dialogue, it’s the way their interactions are framed. The scenes where they cuddle or share private moments come off as outright abnormal and crazy given the size difference that is portrayed in the anime. The narrative tries to pass this off as romantic, but genuinely it makes my stomach turn. Trying to normalize this given a fantasy world really questions the author's intentions.
The show had so many ways to avoid this weirdness. A simple time skip or even aging up the characters could’ve solved everything. Instead, the story doubles down on this dynamic, and it’s impossible to ignore.
Even without the unsettling romance, the rest of the show isn’t particularly good. The pacing is just bad and the characters lack depth. The villains feel unserious at times.
Although the art and sound design are good, wouldn't recommend watching this anime. Not worth it.

Honestly, i’m a liar if i say i didn’t enjoy show. This is not for everyone to enjoy. Especially the WEIRDOS that GOONS over this kind of things and cant be objective NEEDS TO BE ON THE FBI OR THEIR OWN NATIONAL’S WATCH LIST. Please seek a Therapy if you have immoral thoughts during the watch. Story, Plot, Art, Writing, Pacing and even the sound effects. If you allowed me to continue, this is honestly more than a decent anime and it derserves the score 8/10 First and foremost i need to say that i did felt disgusted, blasphemous and it shivers me down to my spine. But,i can’t particularly find any hate for this anime other than this diabolical relationship standards thats been shoved down my throat throughout this series.
My take on this anime is If it follows our modern legals it wouldn’t be a true medieval scene. I did still rate this a 7/10 because of my today modern day moral standards that went through a battle of heavy moral conflict while watching and also reviewing this anime. If i’m talking about plot and story wise, threw aside all of my modern moral standards i’d give it a solid 8/10.
Indeed its a fantasy medieval, we all know our own world has past like this story as well. It was the social norm at our medieval time, also anything that happened in this anime was also normalized.
As far that i can see, even the author/animator/publisher has their own moral conflicts by showing other than the MC and the Side Characters, the Norms are weirded out by the relationships of the royalties. It can also be a critique of our own world. Nonetheless i’m not defending this diabolical standards of this anime. All i say theres 2 sides of a coin, as i write this review i’m still conflicted and outraged with my decision on scoring this anime high, but the other counterparts i enjoy the well made anime and the comedy of this anime.

Do Over Damsel is a semi fantasy title with an interesting world and impressively strong female lead that is hidden & diminished by a creepy age gap romance between a physical 10year old & 19 year old that only gets worse with each new episode. I would love to say that you can ignore the age gap & focus on the good but it is so prominent and built into the overarching story & characters that it simply can’t be ignored or glossed over. The first episode represents the entire show with pedophilic comments, jarring tones, conflict & rapid personality cycling. Everything devolves as episodes continuewith lack of consequence, skipped character introductions, rapid pacing, romance progression, dog shit drama & (A BIG ONE) the regression of the female lead's strength & mentality to that of a child rather than the battle hardened leader we were introduced to in episode two, making the romance worse than it already was.
It takes 5 episodes to address the elephant in the room and when it does, it’s too late & so contrived that it makes you further question why these specific ages were chosen in the first place. The couple could have been aged up so they were both adults while maintaining the age gap or given the age of teenagers and the story wouldn’t have changed, instead the author chose a physical 10 & 19 year old to lead the story & fall in love.
While people can state in threads that the age gap isn’t a problem due the fantasy themes & human history, everyone except the male lead IN THE SHOW is appalled by the age gap, his interest & actions towards a 10 year old that once again only get worse as episodes continue. It's played for gags in most cases but it's clear from their reaction that it is not normal in their world. The female lead also shares these feelings but at some point similar to here strength & mentality, it disappears in favor of the romance.
If you are curious about a few comments by the male lead without further clarification or answers they follow:
10 Years old is the "Ideal age"
"It might have been better if you were two or three years younger”
“An adult is just a child who’s grown older"
"I've made up my mind to stay with you even after you've turned fourteen."
and more…
Honestly I don’t recommend it but if I were, I would only recommend the second episode where the female lead steals the show with a commanding presence & story line somewhat disconnected form the pedophilic crap.

A solid premise for a fantasy series, perfect for those who enjoy stories of reincarnation and do-overs. Reincarnation, time travel, and other similar tropes are some of my favorites. This anime comes so close to hitting the mark on what i want from a fantasy series. it has just the right amount of world building that makes the environment and people feel real without sounding like a textbook. The magic system is interesting; I love that dragons were included as something other than violent monsters. In this anime they are beings of logic and royalty--as they should be. For all the positives though, there is a majornegative that is constantly hanging over your head while you watch: Jill is 10 years old and Hadis is 19. There is nothing comfortable about a 10-year-old being in a romantic relationship. it could be reasoned by saying it's "period accurate" or "Jill is mentally 16" but I think those are weak excuses. If the author wanted an age difference between the main couple (to allow characters to still call into Hadis' judgment for marrying a "child"), then why not make Hadis 30 and Jill 19? Still the same difference in age but not as creepy as a 10-year-old being married off. (There's also the brief mention of the incestual relationship between the prince and princess which is also distasteful but they don't elaborate on that so it's possible that's a misunderstanding...(I can only hope)).

Short version: If you can overcome the obvious elephant in the room, you’re in for a great story with fun characters, comedy, intrigue and world building that you want to dig your teeth into. If the premise alone turns you off, I can’t exactly blame you though I do think the series is still worth checking out. Long version: Do-Over Damsel is a Reijou series, ie a story about a mistreated young noble woman getting a new lease on life and making everyone regret treating her badly, usually by falling into a romance with a man who seems dangerous and intimidating but who ends up healingher as much as she does him. This is honestly a staple in Shoujo and I’m usually not a big fan of it since they often bring a “women should fix men” mentality with them but I can say that Do-Over Damsel while sharing a lot of blood with its contemporaries manages to feel fun and fresh regardless.
The biggest reason is, of course, the main character. Our protagonist Jill seems more like a Shounen hero than a Shoujo heroine at first glance: stubborn, battle hungry, glutenous and just a little bit stupid. She’s not revolutionary by any means but she does give a bit of flavour to a genre that often has protagonists who are so downtrodden they are resigned to their fate no matter how bad it gets. That’s not to say Jill is invincible of course, for all her military prowess her experience as a simple girl in love is basically non-existent and she can get insecure like anyone else which gives her character a depth that I really enjoy.
Her love interested and deuteragonist Hadis is similar, perceived as dangerous and powerful while having the personality of an absolute loser, and ends up creating an incredibly funny dynamic when combined with Jill’s all business attitude from her military life. In general, the series loves to play with contrasts between and within characters with each character having more depth than initially perceived and playing off other characters and their depths too. How much you will like it, especially the comedy bits, is subjective but I found it incredibly enjoyable.
Another part that I think made it stand out is its story and how it portrays the complicated political world royals and nobles have to navigates. While regression stories are a dime a dozen, especially in the Reijou genre, how her past and present intermingle are incredibly interesting since Jill, unlike most time travel protagonists, lacks any useful information that could be helpful outside of combat.
This gives the story tension in a way a lot of regression stories lack because she doesn’t know anyone’s motivations or plans to manipulate her way out of it and frankly, she’s a bit too stupid to do that anyway. So despite our two heroes being overpowered in combat, the political nature of the story doesn’t let them just punch their problems away, at least if they want to keep the peace. This means the characters and the writer have to get creative on how to solve things while also letting us have some cool action scenes now and then.
Speaking of the action, I think it’s worth noting that the animation isn’t that great. Not terrible by any means, especially in the first few episodes but as the series goes on you can tell that the budget ran out or the animators were seriously overworked because from composition to the artwork to the actual animation it keeps getting worse. The show does use some shortcuts to hide it and I don’t think it’s a huge detriment to the series since it’s mostly political and character driven anyway but if you expect the show to keep up the quality of the first episodes you will be sorely disappointed.
Now, I think it’s time to address The Elephant. Our protagonist is 10 years old. Granted, she is mentally 16 because of the regression but functionally that doesn’t matter since nobody knows it happened. For all intents and purposes, she’s 10 years old and her love interest is 19 going on 20. That is, to put it mildly, really really weird. Insanely weird. Ridiculously weird. “By god why would you do this?!” weird. I’m not even going to try and defend it because it’s a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge ick and by far the biggest hurdle for anyone watching the show, more than the characters, the animation and the plot combined.
Now I understand the thought process, regression stories face a problem that when a character goes back in time, there’s always the issue that they’re mentally older than their potential love interests which opens a huge can of worms. So giving Jill an older love interests closer to her mental age makes sense in that way. Why her physical age has to be that much younger and Hadis so much older is a mystery to me though and I can’t justify it beyond “the author probably liked that”.
BUT! And it’s a soft but, I think the series is still worth watching despite that huge ick because of it’s great writing and characters. If it helps at all, Jill’s child body is never sexualized in any way and her bodily autonomy is always respected. Her relationship with Hadis, while undoubtedly romantic, is not sexual in nature which doesn’t make it okay but let’s the ick go down a bit smoother. I didn’t mind it much since every Reijou series has a bit of toxicity mixed in and this series has probably the tamest instance of a huge age gap relationship with a minor I’ve seen in anime in general. I don’t think it’s as bad as, say, Mushoku Tensei, but if you can’t tolerate it at all, that’s completely fair and you should probably find a different series to watch.
Overall I still give the series a recommend because of how much I enjoyed it and think others will enjoy it too if they have any interest in the Reijou genre or Shoujo in general. I would say give it the first episode if you’re unsure if you can tolerate the elephant or not. If you can, congratulations and have fun! If you can’t, no big deal, just find something else to watch.

This had so much potential and that makes me want to give it even lower score. The story set up was pretty decent, definitely better than most anime in this genre. Same goes for the animation - it was okayish nothing breathtaking but it was not a literal slide show - for the most part. But both of them get so much worse as the story goes on. We get extreme expositions dump at the start of the show. I dont understand why they didnt pace out the story more so we get to know all the characters better. The story would be alsoless rushed and we wouldnt need these pathetic info dumps. I personally believe that the first six episodes couldve been the whole series if it was written better. This way the goddess looks so pathetic - but thats not really surprising since all the villains are extremely cartoonish. The main protagonist is also very confusing. Its like the authors cant decide what her character should be - witty, tsundere, funny, serious,... it is important for characters to be complex but this she isnt. She is a mess. Its really sad that the story had potential but it was ruined by laziness and lack of planing.
Now. For the elephant in the room. The age gap. I dont understand why so many anime are affraid to have characters older than 20. Like its so easy to fix it - goddess can poses anyone who is 18 and older, make the main girl 16 and the guy 18 meaning they were in their 20s at the start of the show which would make so much more sense??? They are really pulling that "iN ThE oLd TimEs", "iTS noRMaL fOr RoyALty" and "hE iS AlsO juST a cHiLd" like please. What is the point of it if you are not going to use the insane age gap for anything like... the curse could have any age, the characters dont act their age (mc does not act like she is 16 anyways), we dont see the mc being comflicted about suddenly being in prepubescent body, we have nothing. So again, why? And what makes it so disgusting is that it is not just a platonic love - like bro why are you kissing a 10 y.o. when you are 19 six episodes in? Yuck.

Gonna take a huge controversial opinion on this big platform for "The Do-Over Damsel Conquers The Dragon Emperor" anime — if one can just look past the (justified) problematics of a minor betrothed to a teenage-adult, the series is a treat. And I mean what I said. Cautionary disclaimer follows: it's *okay* to not take fiction as fact or reality. This is quite literally a safe space where no real-life actors on screen are being paid for acting out characters. It's creative - it's as fictional as it can get so let's not dwell too much into it. So, should you pass this up even ifit's absolutely not up to your palate? - well....yea, please watch what you really want lol.
For those who can conform, here's my review.
The story this anime has BY FAR makes up for the romance issue. I definitely agree that, although setting & plot-motivated, it could have still been remedied. Okay let's get past this already. Moving on–from the time you meet Jill on screen, you're in love with her, and hooked. There is no return until you click on next, next, next episode, and it's over and you're feeling left with "wait! what?? How is this over?? They have had to greenlit this for S2 right? right??"
It's such a rollercoaster of a ride - the myth-and-magic infused dark political upheavals and dynamics of this show just has you by the throat. I'm not gonna lie but Jill kept giving me flashbacks of "Youjo Senki" - she is just that powerful! scary? no not really, but truly a great soldier character. Her character is also well-complimented with Shuu Uchida's voice acting (my 1st time hearing her) & it's a great combo - the talent really shines and you just cannot help but love Jill! (My only wish was to see more of her 16-yo self because that's badass too)
Next, we have our love interest the Dragon Emperor voiced by Kikunosuke Toya (can you believe that this VA had voiced Chouji in "Windbreaker"? the difference is contrasting, but an easy fan fav VA for sure) - feared by all, definitely has unresolved abandonment and abuse issues (with a lolicon complex maybe), but to Jill, he is the one looking after the house, waiting for her to return from the battlefield with the dining table set with sweet bakeries and pastries, meat, veggies, and a whole heart of love and bashfulness. He still has hope for a happy ending because of her. Can you tell I enjoyed his character? (of course you can) - I also liked his 'dark moody' character whenever he's pressed and angry too. I think the spectrum of his emotions are well-done in his character that it doesn't feel 'cringy' or too 'try-hard' and that is definitely a praise.
Jill and the Emperor's relationship grows, albeit a little strenuously and somewhat at a disapproving pace for Jill. But the latter is just trying to survive and marrying the emperor is her trump card. So what can be done, the least is to fall in love and make sure that the dark future of the kingdom does not repeat itself and she, once again, doesn't end up dying.
So far, it all should sound a little like "7th Time Loop: The Villainess Enjoys a Carefree Life Married to Her Worst Enemy!" And you'll not be wrong. "The Do-Over Damsel Conquers The Dragon Emperor" would be if "7thTime Loop" and "Why Raeliana Ended up at the Duke's Mansion" had an adopted daughter and "Youjo Senki" was an influential aunt (minus the isekai)— it makes a lot of sense to me so that's why I wrote it. It's a very good senin-jousei rom-com that has you seated throughout. And speaking of the 'comedy' in the romance - it's alright. it's at times pretty funny and other times I was neutral about it (the only 'comedy' that i nodded my head to was probably when the adults in the anime also wanted to punch the Emperor for pushing himself onto a minor)
Okay (this is already pretty long so) a few quick good points:
- animation - JC Staff is cooking in their kitchen when the cooks are good. 10/10 no notes
- overall voice acting - good stuff 8.5/10
- music/song - OST is pretty good; Shuhei Mutsuki is the composer and there are some pretty solid A+ in the album
so, TL;DR - should you watch it? - Yes. Absolutely. You should. If you're one who understands that fiction is not real-world, this can easily be a higher-mid story series for you
Overall rating - 7.85 out of 10 (someone please fix the Review radar for this anime)

Let's start with the obvious elephant in the room: Yes, this is a story that features a physically 10 year old Jill (mentally she is 17 as she regressed after being killed) being in a relationship with the physical 19 year old Hadis. I won't try to sugarcoat that, it is one of those ideas that can easily kill the show for someone. And that's totally fine. I am also not going to say that it "has a story reason" because we know that the author could have just slightly changed the rules for Jill to not being physically 10. However, if that premise didnot make you drop the show and you'd like to know how serious this matter is, let me just say these two things:
1) Jill is a character first and foremost. She is not a trophy piece for the male lead and she is also not portrayed as a fetish character. She is never sexualised at all (I know a low bar, but we know anime), meaning she is always wearing non-revealing clothing, there are no bath scenes, no underwear scenes or anything that you usually expect from anime. And I would definitely not recommend it if that was the case.
2) While the age gap can not be overlooked, one has to accept that the relationship is mostly on the emotional side and not the physical. Meaning that Hadis' and Jill's love come mostly from loving the character and what they mean for their live and not because they are necessarily sexually attracted to them. And since Jill is mentally 17, this whole aspect was not as bad as you might expect.
Now with that out of the way, what I can say about the show is that if you can look past the controversial decision, then you get a really well-written fantasy show. The anime constantly walks a fine line between serious tone and humor and while this can be jarring at times, one has to give credit to the writers for actually making something this difficult work. The humor contrasts the seriousness very well without actually undermining it. It also helps to give the characters a second side that make them more entertaining in a result.
But what is the story actually about? You have heard the premise: Jill, a warrior princess type gets betrayed by her fiancé and is going to be killed, however, instead of dying she goes back in time keeping her memories. In order to not having to get engaged with the same man again, she is proposing to a seemingly random person which turns out to be the emperor of the neighbouring country which they had a war with in the original timeline. The idea is now obviously for Jill to figure out what made Hadis the way he is in the future and how she can prevent it. However, despite her age, she is not just looking for information, since she also has a lot of magic, once she figures out what has to be done, she is fighting on the front lines as well. Which makes her an entertaining character that can carry most of the show by herself.
But the good thing is, she isn't the only reason why I consider the show well written. The other characters work well as well. Be it the male lead Hadis or even the side characters. They have a similar seriousness to them, but can also goof around which again, helps this show to never get unnecessarily dark.
But what really made me like the show was how well the whole regression aspect plays into the story. When you hear stuff like that, you immediately think of political betrayals. And yes, this is part of it. But this show goes a bit further and actually has a really interesting story for the world involving two gods and their love/hate for one another. Not to spoil anything, the show is really well done at giving the right amount of information every time so that reveals don't become overwhelming as everything you knew changes, but still give you enough information that you can slowly but surely piece together what is the truth of the world and how this affects the present. It's one of the best in that aspect and I can only recommend it if you enjoy a mystery like that.
As for negatives (other than what has been written in the beginning) are both animation and (in some parts) pacing. Animation isn't truly bad, but it's noticable especially in the fights where the characters can be a bit too stiff. Though, I also have to say that the show comes with a fantastic soundtrack that can make you forget the not so good animation. As for the pacing, it's usually okay in my opinion, but I am also more a fan of a bit faster pacing compared to slower. But even I have to say that there were one or two moments where I would have liked if they gave it a bit more breathing room. Still, overall, it's not too bad.
In the end, the show is a really well-written fantasy show with a great balance between seriousness and humor and a strong mystery around the regressing story point. I won't tell you to forget that there is an age gap, because this is't possible, but if you do think that this might not be too much of an issue with the points I raised, then give it a shot. I feel, you won't be disappointed.

Everyone focusing on how she's a 10 year old tend to ignore that, although that is creepy and weird, the story also has boring characters and a forgettable plot. Want to see a privileged girl go back in time and get another chance? there's lots of shows out there that do this premise way better! try "7th time loop" or the "Tier Moon Empire" For some very good content. Do over damsel conquers dragon emperor is not specifically bad (except of course the ten year old part) But it doesn't really excel at anything, It Could have been good, but there's no real magic at play here,no chemistry between any of the characters.
So to sum up if you can get past the fact she is reincarnated as a 10 year old you will find a somewhat bland anime behind that so not really worth your effort.

From its interesting time travel concept to should never have been done execution in grooming and world building, this show truly has been one of the worst shows I’ve watched all year. The show sees our main character, Jill whatever the hell her last name was, being executed at the hands of the man she thought loved her but instead of dying she is sent 6 years back in time to when she was 10 and was to be wed to the man who kills her in the future, however this time she chooses another guy instead to marry… insert the groomer/pdf file who isjust as bad as Rudefile, the Dragon Emperor, who immediately accepts her proposal and it only spirals from there.
The world building and writing are absolutely abysmal and is very much so fantasy for kiddies with things like the Dukedom of Neuhtral and so on.
I truly hope this show does not get a second season because it does not deserve it.

So this is absolutely a very good anime,totally love this. If you are finding to watch some heartfelt Romance with the male character being obsessed with the female character this is absolutely the right anime to go with. The female character is also very strong, brave and smart and not like some damsel in distress being dumb and totally relying on the mc. The MC who is a dragon Emperor is a little bit childish which seem very cute but he becomes very serious when it comes to his wife which I love the most. ( Like the touch her and die troops will obviouslylove this anime.)
The overall story is also great like the full anime is packed with intense drama, action and Romance obviously. It also has some comedy scene.The animation quality is also fantastic and the character designs are also great. The only problem that might seem to be there is the age of the characters like the Fl being 10 years old while the Ml is 19 years old though there is not a single weird scene or stuff about that but some people might find it problematic but in the Anime it doesn't cause any issue. This is the only reason why it can't be labelled as the best but it is not so much of a problem because the FL is actually 16 years old and has been reincarnated into her younger self to correct her mistake in the past. The story line is actually very much interesting and good with a mix of many genres together.
If you want to watch something with fantasy,royalty,action,comedy, reincarnation and romance this is a very good anime to watch. It also has fighting scenes,magic and Dragons. I would totally recommend it to watch.
Vlasov-kun
Almost as bad as the Knights of Sidonia. All the characters ignore that the main character is 10 years old. Never mind the romance line, which is completely unnecessary there by the way. A 10 year old girl is accepted as a knight, she's counseled like it's the norm. It's not the norm. On top of that, most of the characters act like they've been hit over the head with a board between scenes. They forget their previous words and actions as if they never happened at all. On the plus side, no one burps, farts or talks about peeing.

This show is one of the most senseless I've seen, yet it takes its plot seriously! It’s proven its senseless nature from the very beginning. The romance, although a bit weird, is enjoyable, considering it's fiction. Surprisingly, the comedy lands for me too! The animation in the first couple of episodes was really good—felt like watching a high-quality production. However, as the episodes progressed, the quality declined. One thing that remained consistent was the sound design. It was magnificent to hear, making the scenes more impactful than they really are. The opening and ending songs were okay for me but somewhat fit the theme of theshow.
There were some boring moments, such as exposition dumps here and there, but fortunately, they were infrequent. The plot moves at a very fast pace, almost like it's running at 1.5x speed! It was a bit surprising at first, but I got used to it as the episodes progressed.
Overall, it's a show that's heavy on exposition, tightly gripped with no sense, and full of plot holes and dumb twists. However, it has sweet sprinkles of romance here and there with hilarious situations at times. I kind of like it!

A reverse time anime about a 16 year old girl that gets betrayed by her husband and is getting another chance at life at age 10. Everything good until now... then it hits you. Right from the start. Her husband from her past life was the crown prince of a country, so at age 10, when the crown prince chooses her, she decides to go with another one... and that another one is 19... and he accepts her... he is overjoyed by her age... While there is a plot reason why he is overjoyed by her age and such, it is still quite the :| moment forme (could have been easily changed...). But okay, let's say we get over this, what do we have then? A comedy mostly that switches between somewhat serious moments with jokes and... quite a few close, heartfelt moments between the FMC and MC... Oh man, it just likes to emphasize the fact that it is a 19 y old with a 10 y old, huh... Let's see who is the author... a female... I see... well, I did hear quite a lot of 18+ stuff is drawn by females...
Plot is basic to the point it is cringe at times for certain moments, but the main point of this anime is comedy, so ig it doesn't really matter that much, but there isn't that much comedy to make up for the plot imho. Nothing is explained when it comes magic and stuff. Worldbuilding? Ye, don't expect much. And man, sometimes it feels like you're watching on 2x for how fast the story suddenly starts developing, like they remembered they only got so much time and need to finish everything ASAP! Fighting scenes are quite meh as well. Quite a few "perfect" moments that aren't funny or anything, they just seem to be the copy paste of moments I've already seen in thrash animes... It's just the typical feel good story where everyone will be happy and the bed guy gets it.
There are some characters that are quite funny, but they don't appear as much as I would have wanted. MC is the strong female lead type. I like her spirit. MC is okayish? Tbh he's pretty boring to me...
Story: 7 -- There is a plotline... but it's kinda thrash anime plot style...
Art: 7 -- Art was okay. Didn't use horrendous CGI at least, but the fights were kinda 1 frame per second type most of the time, or short af.
Music: 7 -- Okay music.
Characters: 8 -- A few funny ones, but that age gap is still bugging me quite hard...
Enjoyment: 7 -- Was somewhat enjoyable, but didn't leave me with a strong impression or anything... besides that age gap.
Overall: 7

Tbh I cannot really recommend it much to anyone... there are better thrash animes out there. This one is for those that want a comedy that doesn't take itself serious, with a bit of shoujo put in it between the FMC and MC, can get over the ages of the MC and FMC, doesn't mind the generic thrash anime moments and just wants to chill at something and pass the time.

A friend recommended 'The Do-Over Damsel Conquers The Dragon Emperor' to me based on what I was watching for Fall 2024, and I'm glad I did. Jill rocks! § Overview Jill Savelle was betrayed by her fiancé, and he was chasing her to be killed. Fortunately, for some reason, she was able to re-do her life. As she was about to be killed, she became younger. From 16 years old, she went back to her 10-year-old self. To prevent her fate from happening again, she proposes to the dragon emperor, Hadis Teos Rave, who accepts. And from there, an unusual relationship develops.§ Notes
1. Since its target audience is female (it's confusing because MAL calls this shoujo but its manga adaptation puts it as seinen), I call this 'Redo of Healer' but for females. After all, Jill redoes her life and seems wiser. Plus, there are too many moments that it tries to make the watcher feel 'diabetes.'
2. Even in her younger form, Jill is mostly overpowered, except in the last few episodes because...just watch it, please.
I had mixed feelings at first because she is so badass and seems to have it so easy. I'm glad there were moments when she seemed powerless or at least struggling.
3. Some may be infuriated with the dragon emperor Hadis because he is a borderline pædophile. He only wants to marry girls who are younger than 14, and he is 19 years old. There's an in-story reason why he is forced to only care for young girls. Again, watch this to find out.
4. Our couple are complex characters. In the old world, Jill was 16 years old, but she had the maturity of someone at least 20 years old. So in her ten-year-old body, she is a girl boss and sometimes clashes with Hadis because whatever she wants to do, she is decisive.
Hadis has the potential to be cruel and he has a lot of angst. But for much of the screen time, he displays childish behaviour. Like it or not, this somehow negates the iffy feeling that he is a pædo because of how cute his behaviour can be.
5. Most fanservice is understood to be nudity, but properly understood, it can include unnecessary scenes that might be fun to watch but don't advance the plot, e.g. sweet moments, gazing at each other, kissing, and stuff like that. In that case, there's a lot of such fanservice in this anime. For people who are neutral, you probably won't care that much. If you like this couple, you will enjoy it. But if you find their pairing sus, you will be annoyed.
6. Since Jill is just 10 years old in the present timeline, she looks incompatible with Hadis despite their chemistry.
7. Whilst the anime has good character design, I don't see any waifu material. So if you're only interested in attractive female characters, you might not find one.
8. Since some scenes involve recollection of what would happen in the future, which was what Jill in her old life experienced, you get a good presentation of its lore and believe me, this anime is rich in it.
9. Animation is mostly standard, but the art direction sometimes be all over the place with some colours not mixing well.
§ Conclusion
If you want a badass female character, consider this. She may be overpowered, but why she became one makes sense unlike what's usually sold in Western media as Mary Sue. But this is balanced with sweet moments between Jill and Hadis, moments that will make you smile (or cringe).
