Manga 'The Banishment of Lady Arialaine' First Volume Hits Shelves
The story of a count's daughter taking revenge on a foolish prince who looked down on her is now meeting readers in manga format. The first volume of the series 'The Banishment of Lady Arialaine' was released in Japan on June 12, 2024 under the Earth Star Entertainment label. The manga's illustrations are handled by Nigatsu Ni Maru, while the script belongs to Shiroururi, who wrote the web novel of the same name.
At the core of the series lies the unjust accusation and exile from the palace of Arialaine, the daughter of a noble family, by her fiancé the prince. However, instead of accepting this situation, Arialaine prepares a revenge plan to hold him and his family accountable for this injustice. The story stands out as a typical example of the 'villainess' and 'revenge' subgenre that has gained great interest, especially among female readers in recent years. Shiroururi's original novel quickly gained popularity after being published on the Shōsetsuka ni Narō platform.
Nigatsu Ni Maru's illustrations successfully reflect the dark yet captivating atmosphere of the novel. Especially Arialaine's determined gaze and the clever moves she uses against the prince are among the most talked-about aspects of the manga. Although the series has just begun, readers are treated to a very satisfying opening in the first volume. Like similar mangas previously published by Earth Star Entertainment (for example, 'The Daughter of the Albert House Wishes for Ruin'), this series is expected to quickly build a fan base.
The increasing interest in such stories in Turkey is leading local publishers to turn to such works. Although 'The Banishment of Lady Arialaine' has not yet been officially published in Turkish, it is only a matter of time before it reaches our country through digital platforms or physical copies. For manga fans, especially those who love series about 'revenge' and 'noble intrigues,' this new series deserves to be added to their follow lists. In future volumes, we will see together how Arialaine's plans take shape and how much the prince will regret looking down on her.
