1 | "Dahlia's Dream" Transliteration: "Dariya no Yume" ( Japanese: ダリヤの夢) | Masato Uchibori | Yuichiro Higashide | Yosuke Kubo | July 6, 2024 | |
After overworking herself to death a Japanese salarywoman is reborn in an alternate world as Dahlia, daughter of Carlo Rossetti, a magic device craftsman. From an early age Dahlia is entranced by magic devices and decides to one day become a craftswoman herself. Carlo is impressed with the drawings Dahlia makes of modern Japanese technology adapted to work with magic. Dahlia’s friend Irma hopes to be a hair stylist one day so Dahlia decides her very first device will be a hairdryer powered by wind and fire magic stones. In her haste she ignores Carlo’s warning not to attempt to build it until she has had more training and she sets fire to the workshop. With Carlo’s help they complete a working hairdryer together, though Carlo is severely scolded by their maid Sophia for allowing a child of Dahlia’s age to work all night without stopping. Many years later Dahlia’s skills have improved considerably but feels she is not yet ready to tackle crafting a fairy crystal light, a notoriously difficult device to craft. Carlo considers taking on another apprentice but hesitates as he is unsure how Dahlia might react. | ||||||
2 | "Memories Of Being With Carlo" Transliteration: "Karuro to Issho ni Ita Omoide" ( Japanese: カルロと一緒にいた思い出) | Xu Chenfeng | Makoto Nakamura | Masato Sato | July 13, 2024 | |
Carlo hires Tobias Orlando, an apprentice craftsman and heir to the Orlando Trading Company. Later, Carlo and Tobias get caught in the rain and Dahlia is inspired to craft a raincoat since the animal skin cloaks most people use aren’t very waterproof and tend to smell. Her solution is to craft a water repellent fabric from slime monsters with help from Carlo and Tobias. After registering the patent for the fabric under her own name they are instantly swamped with orders and require substantial help from the Orlando Company. Tobias’ father privately reveals to Carlo that he is terminally ill, leading Carlo to confess that he is also unwell and doesn’t have much time left. This leads to their decision to push Dahlia and Tobias to marry, ensuring their successful futures and protecting each other. Dahlia eventually agrees and becomes engaged to Tobias, though it is clear she doesn’t love him but respects him as a businessman and a craftsman. Immediately, Tobias becomes critical of Dahlia, pressuring her to dress differently and change her appearance and behaviour so as not to embarrass him. Tobias’ father dies soon afterwards and Carlo steps in to help Tobias manage the company, but the stress worsens Carlo’s own health and he passes away soon after. | ||||||
3 | "True Love?" Transliteration: "Shin no ai?" ( Japanese: 真の愛?) | TBA | TBA | TBA | July 20, 2024 | |
Shortly after Carlo’s death Tobias suddenly ends their engagement, having fallen in love with Emilia, a receptionist at his trading company. During the formal cancellation of their engagement and Dahlia’s business partnership with the Orlando Trading Company Dahlia receives gold but loses her part ownership of the house she and Orlando built together to marry in. To add insult to injury, Dahlia discovers Emilia had already moved her own possessions into the house and had sex with Tobias in Dahlia’s bed mere hours after the engagement was ended. Dahlia moves back into Carlo’s tower outside of town and almost succumbs to depression as she did in her previous life, but she realises in this life she has both friends and business contacts who care about her wellbeing and quickly recovers her cheerful self, starting with resuming her former style of dress and hair colour which Tobias forced her to change. Dahlia discovers Emilia is the illegitimate daughter of Viscount Tallini and likely stole Tobias from Dahlia to get access to his money and trading company. Deciding to have some fun Dahlia disguises herself as a man to go travelling but in the wilderness she encounters a wounded knight and helps him recover. The knight turns out to be Wolfred of the Monster Suppression Squad who works directly for the King. |
Sean Gaffney from A Case Suitable for Treatment praised the characters and romance, though he felt the story was a bit generic. [1] Rebecca Silverman from Anime News Network praised the illustrations and main characters, though she criticized a "lack of authorial focus". [52]
In the Kono Light Novel ga Sugoi! guidebook's tankōbon and novel category, the series ranked ninth in 2021 and 2022 and second in 2023. [53] [54] [55]
The series has 1.2 million copies in circulation. [56]
