Chikara o Tare Nagasu) will begin airing on Japanese television during the

About
the work
The story
follows Carolina, a young woman who has lived her entire life under
the shadow of her prestigious family. With a father serving as the respected
prime minister and an older prodigy sister destined to become the country's
next Saint, Carolina has resigned herself to being considered the black sheep
of the lineage. However, her monotonous existence is shattered when a royal
order forces her to marry Edward, the fearsome prince of the neighboring
empire. As she begins this new and dangerous life away from home, Carolina
begins to unconsciously manifest an overwhelming amount of magical power that
she did not know she possessed.
The
original work, written by author Almond, began publication as a web
novel on the Shosetsuka ni Naro portal. Subsequently, the
publisher Earth Star Entertainment began publishing the printed
volumes with illustrations by Yoshiro Ambe, officially concluding
the story of the light novel with its fourth volume in June 2023. The franchise
continues to expand through its manga adaptation, illustrated by Yona
Etou, which has been in continuous serialization since April 2022.
