The wait is over! A new anime is coming in 2025, and it’s based on the bestselling light novel “Loved by Her Sister’s Former Fiancée” by Tobirano!

Tobirano’s fantasy romance story follows the journey of a poor baron’s daughter who’s been living in the shadow of her sister. With a heart full of hairballs and a wardrobe consisting of tattered clothes, Marie is sent as a substitute bride for her sister to the high-ranking noble Earl. But, what seems like an impossible situation becomes a beautiful and happy story of love.

Did you know that the light novel has already sold 1.6 million copies worldwide? The series has also been adapted into a manga by Chikage Nakakura, which is available on the Gaugau Monster website.

Check out the synopsis below:

A poor baron’s daughter has lived under her sister’s shadow, where she always had nothing. Her hair is full or hairballs, she doesn’t have a single dress, and all she has are tattered clothes for work. Her sister receives the attention of a high rich noble, but she dies on the way to her marriage.

Marie is sent as a substitute bride for her sister because the baron cannot repay the already sold dowry to the earl. But… that’s impossible? In the first place, the proposal was a misunderstanding? A beautiful and happy story of love about a fallen baron’s daughter and an eloquent earl. (Source: Shousetsuka ni Narou, translated)
