Komaya Kenichirou is directing the anime at Signal.MD studio and the show will star Tanaka Minami as Nina, Umehara Yuichiro as Prince Azure, Uchiyama Kouki as Seto, Touyama Nao as Muhulum, and Tomizawa Tatsuya as Dytus.
The anime is based on the Hoshifuru Oukoku no Nina manga created by Rikachi (Hatori Kyoudai, Meiji Hiiro Kitan, Kouri no Joou). The manga was launched in October 2019 in Kodansha’s Be Love magazine and won the Best Shoujo Manga award in the 46th annual Manga Awards. Kodansha published the manga’s first tankoubon volume in March 2020 and the 13th volume in April 2024.
Nina had a rough start to life, stealing to survive—and eventually being sold into slavery by her brother. But to her surprise, her captor, Prince Azure, ordained that she would live the life of a princess…specifically, that of the recently deceased princess-priestess, Alisha. But despite her changing fortune, Nina won’t give up her old life without a fight…and Azure might finally be the one to match her wits. But how much can she trust Azure? And can she stop the feelings budding in her heart, knowing she must eventually marry another…?
