Instead of learning magic and the sword, he sets out to rectify the problems facing the kingdom through economic and political reform\u2014becoming the Kingdom\u2019s new king in the process!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why I\u2019m excited:<\/strong> This story twists the archetypical hero transported to a fantasy world story by making it less about battling demons and more about the socio-economic issues facing the fantasy world. This ranges from the problems caused by an overreliance on cash crops to simple corruption in the government and lack of proper oversite. Even when war does enter the picture, it\u2019s more about the tactics and backroom deals than the actual fighting. If applying actual social, economic, and political theories to a fantasy world sounds interesting to you, be sure to check this one out.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Watch it if you like:<\/strong> <em>Maoyuu, Spice and Wolf<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Where to watch:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.funimation.com\/new-releases\/\">Funimation<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/EwwwDyvVEAIt7lp.jpg?w=700&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"  \/><em>Image source: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hamehura\/status\/1372744640739282946\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u300c\u4e59\u5973\u30b2\u30fc\u30e0\u306e\u7834\u6ec5\u30d5\u30e9\u30b0\u3057\u304b\u306a\u3044\u60aa\u5f79\u4ee4\u5b22\u306b\u8ee2\u751f\u3057\u3066\u3057\u307e\u3063\u305f\u2026X\u300dTV\u30a2\u30cb\u30e1\u516c\u5f0f<\/a> on Twitter<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! (Season 2)<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Genre:<\/strong> Reincarnated as a Villainess in a Fantasy Dating Sim World<\/p>\n<p><strong>Studio: <\/strong>SILVER LINK.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Premiere date: <\/strong>July 3, 2021<\/p>\n<p><strong>What it\u2019s about:<\/strong> After being reincarnated as a villainess character in a female-aimed dating-sim, the not-so-bright Catarina has spent the last decade of her life working to avoid her tragic fate. After many comical misadventures, she has succeeded and a bright future seems to await her. Unfortunately, she\u2019s unaware that the game she was reborn into has a sequel where the villainess is supposed to return to take her revenge!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why I\u2019m excited:<\/strong> One of the most important aspects of the first season is that Catarina has played the game she is living out. This basically allows her to know the future (though she admittedly diverts from the main plot drastically early on by befriending all those who would have stood against her). In this season, however, she is left without that foreknowledge. Instead of acting, she is forced to react in order to survive the trials that await her. And given how dim-witted Catarina is, this might prove to be a bigger problem than expected.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Watch it if you like:<\/strong> <em>Accomplishments of the Duke\u2019s Daughter, It Seems Like I Got Reincarnated into the World of a Yandere Otome Game, The Daughter of the Albert House Wishes for Ruin<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Where to watch:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crunchyroll.com\/my-next-life-as-a-villainess-all-routes-lead-to-doom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Crunchyroll<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/E3BtLXWUUAMLdJD.jpg?w=700&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"  \/><em>Image source: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/bocchan_anime\/status\/1400739529942654979\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">TV\u30a2\u30cb\u30e1\u300e\u6b7b\u795e\u574a\u3061\u3083\u3093\u3068\u9ed2\u30e1\u30a4\u30c9\u300f\u516c\u5f0f<\/a> on Twitter<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>The Duke of Death and His Maid<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Genre:<\/strong> Romantic Comedy, Fantasy<\/p>\n<p><strong>Studio: <\/strong>J.C.Staff<\/p>\n<p><strong>Premiere date: <\/strong>July 4, 2021<\/p>\n<p><strong>What it\u2019s about:<\/strong> After the heir to a noble family is cursed by a witch to kill anything he touches, he is exiled by his family to live alone in a remote mansion. There, his only companions are an aging butler and his buxom maid, Alice. But while the young man may wish to be alone in his despair, Alice won\u2019t allow it\u2014invading his personal space and flirting with him even in the face of mortal danger.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why I\u2019m excited:<\/strong> This is one of the cutest little rom-com stories out there. Rather than being cruel, Alice\u2019s relentless flirting proves to be the young man\u2019s lifeline to his humanity. And, beyond the lighthearted comedy lies several intriguing mysteries. Why has the young man been cursed? Why has Alice stayed by his side despite him being abandoned by his own family?

To start off, he does not realize how powerful he is. Moreover, as the goddess rejected him, he is not able to even speak the human language. And because he is so very ugly (by the impossible beauty standards of the fantasy world), most humans think he might be a monster of some sort. This all serves to isolate him\u2014and lets him develop without any influence from either side of the human\/demon war.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Watch it if you like:<\/strong> <em>That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, How Not to Summon a Demon Lord, Demon Lord, Retry!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Where to watch:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crunchyroll.com\/lineup\">Crunchyroll<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><em>Top image source: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/bocchan_anime\/status\/1394608704465489922\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">TV\u30a2\u30cb\u30e1\u300e\u6b7b\u795e\u574a\u3061\u3083\u3093\u3068\u9ed2\u30e1\u30a4\u30c9\u300f\u516c\u5f0f<\/a> on Twitter.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"more-link-wrapper\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/biggestinjapan.com\/index.php\/2021\/06\/29\/my-most-anticipated-anime-of-summer-2021\/\">Click to Read<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">My Most Anticipated Anime of Summer 2021<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3388,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[269,181,270,271,272],"class_list":["post-3387","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-how-a-realist-hero-rebuilt-the-kingdom","tag-my-next-life-as-a-villainess-all-routes-lead-to-doom","tag-the-duke-of-death-and-his-maid","tag-the-honor-student-at-magic-high-school","tag-tsukimichi-moonlit-fantasy","excerpt","zoom","full-without-featured","even","excerpt-0"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/biggestinjapan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/E1VorUsVcAA-1Jq.jpg?fit=1920%2C1080&ssl=1","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/biggestinjapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3387","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/biggestinjapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/biggestinjapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/biggestinjapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/biggestinjapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3387"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/biggestinjapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3387\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3414,"href":"https:\/\/biggestinjapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3387\/revisions\/3414"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/biggestinjapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3388"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/biggestinjapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3387"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/biggestinjapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3387"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/biggestinjapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3387"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
