Okazari Hime no Dekiai Keikaku: The Battle of Pride and Love Begins! First Volume on Shelves
The latest series from beloved manga artist Yukie Nozawa, Okazari Hime no Dekiai Keikaku (The Decorative Princess's Doting Plan), arrived for readers with its first volume on May 15th. Serialized on Harta Alta, the digital platform of KADOKAWA's Harta magazine, the series managed to draw attention from its very first day with its narrative blending romance and drama. With the first volume now on shelves, this passionate story is finally accessible to physical copy collectors as well.
The story centers on a political marriage between Luche, the princess of the Principality of Crofy, and Rinon, the crown prince of the Saint-Ilia Empire. Burning with the dream of building a loving home like her own parents, Luche unfortunately encounters Rinon's icy, cold demeanor. The prince breaks the young princess's heart by clearly stating that this marriage is only for state interests. However, Luche has no intention of remaining just a "decorative" (okazari) princess.
With some very bold and unconventional advice from her maid Yelka, Luche decides to launch a "night battle" to melt her husband's ice. Luche's plan to defeat Prince Rinon in the bedroom with romantic and provocative moves turns into a struggle filled with pride and desire between the two. The effort of an innocent princess to bring an arrogant prince to his knees promises readers both fun and quite steamy moments.
Series creator Yukie Nozawa, known for works like Hanazono ni Miki ga Tatsu, is recognized for her ability to convey character emotions and aesthetic drawings.
