"Born of an old, respected family in the land but subsisting on a low income, Shuurei accepts an invitation to become the new Emperor's concubine while believing that he is homosexual. The real purpose of her marriage is, however, to educate the lazy Emperor. Her close friend, Seiran, also enters the court as royal guard. Things get complicated when the characters unexpectedly develop feelings for each other."

this show seems like a typical ancient drama so far, but it's kinda interesting to see it in an animated form. kinda throws me off that it looks like ancient china or something but it's in japanese. but other than that, i'll keep watching this series, seems like there's gonna be multiple twisted love triangles too. decent first ep, really vibrant colors and nice character design too.

Just watched the first two episodes, they weren't that bad, I'll keep watching. The pace is pretty slow, but I like the character interactions, I think that alone will make this series worth watching for me. Hate the bishounens, but there's nothing I can do about that but bear with it.
