Tearmoon Empire Light Novel #2
Tearmoon Empire: Volume 2
It’s the summer holidays, and Mia’s on a roll.
Ever since the spoiled princess of Tearmoon leapt through time and restarted life as a twelve-year-old, everything has been going her way. Leveraging her memory of future events and — unwittingly — the delusions of those around her, she secures a source of wheat for the coming famine and prevents a civil war from breaking out.
And then, at last, she manages to avert her own grisly death by guillotine, erasing from existence the very diary that foretold her doom! Things are going so well that she can't help but erupt into song and dance...
...Only to slam into a proverbial brick wall. And have the rug pulled out from under her. Just for good measure.
That dreaded word — revolution — once again reaches her ears, only this time, it’s not in Tearmoon. She is horrified to learn that a popular uprising in Remno is threatening the stability of the entire kingdom. To make matters worse, her princely sweetheart, Abel, has gone home for the holidays, trapping him at the center of the chaos. To go, or not to go? That is the question. Should she brave danger to mount a rescue, or sit safe in the comfort of her own castle? Freed from the curse of the guillotine and faced with an uncertain future, what choice will Mia make?

Absolutely LOVED it and had to buy the rest, as my friend only had the first two volumes for me to borrow. Really, it’s that good! Very fun. 5, narrator snarky, stars!

這個系列雖然文筆很淺(一行沒幾個字的網小風格) 但米雅王女的求生意志還蠻有趣的~
而且意外的很...現實??? 像是革命說來熱血, 但其實人民若不到比死還痛苦的境界是不會去革命的; 還有糧食無法運輸造成的飢荒(欸這個很有既視感...) 不過開掛這種路線看久了會有點膩, 不知道作者後續還能變出甚麼花樣呢~

This was a bummer, honestly. It’s perfectly fine, but it lacks the spark and wit that the first volume had. What’s worse is that occasionally those things still crop up, serving as a reminder what how much fun the first volume was.
Mia’s still on a quest to avoid the guillotine and stumbling her way into being a revered monarch of her country as a consequence of ostensibly selfish actions. It doesn’t feel quite as well done as last time - the previously refreshing narration just feels less clever and opts instead to be meaner more often than not.
I also don’t love how they kind of undercut her character arc by positing a third party as responsible for her situation in the other timeline. It’s very ‘have your cake and eat it too’ when none of that was even intimated in the first volume.
Another thing that struck me here is how a lot of the descriptions are just giving depictions of how this would look as an anime. I mean, I’d watch it, but it’s really easy to feel like there’s some authorial hinting here that doesn’t need to be present.
The horse shampoo is the best part of the whole thing and if the book had been as clever as that concept throughout it would have been amazing. Sadly, this was really just okay stuff where I was hoping for more.
I’ll read another one; there are hints of some interesting possibilities afoot, but I don’t intend to keep at it if it becomes relentlessly mediocre, lest I become victim of a Sunkland cost fallacy.

paused
October 8, 2024note to self: paused because you started reading a bunch of other stuff + the looming question of if you're willing to commit to reading all these light novels. i've heard this is a big dip in quality in the series and that it does smooth itself out eventually.

okay, lost steam here for it (not the fault of the story) but will probably take a break from this series since this volume ended at a pretty wrapped point. Very very political schemes heavy this volume.
quick, enjoyable read. no idea where the plot could go now though

Summer vacation has come, and Mia is back in Tearmoon surveying the results of the work she did in the previous book. After safely avoiding a bloodbath involving the Lulu tribe, the bloody diary finally disappears and Mia learns that she has safely avoided the guillotine future… only for the revolution to move to Remno instead. As Mia goes on a quest to save Abel with her friends, we get to see more of the world with its political intrigue that turns out to be directly tied to her execution in the first timeline. It's a fresh change from the previous volume that took place mainly in Saint-Noel Academy.
While Mia is still the dumb, selfish, and vain princess that she is, she's showing significant growth in this volume. The trip to Remno forces her to spend more time with Sion, which gives her the opportunity to confront his view of justice. It gives more depth to her execution scene since Mia was never given the warning nor the chance to reform, and as Sion struggles with his brand of justice and superiority, it also leads to Mia learning to forgive Sion for her death. We even get a glimpse of what happened to Sion in the first timeline. The book also introduces us to Dion, the soldier who had the honor of beheading Mia. Naturally, she's holding that against him and finds it hard to like him. For now. Unfortunately for her, he's slowly but surely cementing his place as yet another rabid Mia fan.
There are many times when Mia's fans started to question her less than stellar behavior, but it only leads to even more hilarious misunderstandings that only feed their delusion. The writing is still as sarcastic as before, but it does give Mia credit when she actually does what needs to be done. I really like how it smoothly transitions to a more serious tone when necessary, and switches back to the usual wittiness right after it's over. Since Mia has warmed up to Sion a lot in this volume, hopefully we'll get to see her bonding with Tiona, Rafina, and Dion too in the next books.

Mia's struggle to avoid the guillotine continues, partially through misunderstanding and competent underlings and friends. Still, some of the events are her doing and there is some growth although it is slow.
I like the mix of humour, mostly through the sarcastic storyteller and misunderstandings, and the drama of (inter)national politics and worldbuilding. It is also not often that side characters develop as well if not more so than the MC in light novels.
At time Mia's foolishness and it leading to positive outcomes is overdone and stretching believability. The complicated plotting behind the scenes is usually not my thing either. It feels a bit unlikely to me for such things to have a chance of success. It is not prominent and is not too bad due to the comedy part of the book. It makes me curious where things are going.
So, really enjoyed the read and looking forward to part 3. I never thought I would enjoy a book filled with flashforwards...

Mia is incompetent as ever but that`s fine.
In most stories with a trash character for a protagonist, they will slowly get character developmented into becoming decent and or capable people. Mia grown a lot as a character from making friends last time, she is still useless as a heroine as ever. She does make a good princess though in how she provide opportunities for others to do good by simply acting on her self-centered desires and badly thought out plans. It was a fairly fun read even though the the writing is getting repetitive as it has fallen into the pattern of Mia did a thing and hero see master plan and pressure Mia to follow 'her' plan. I like the ending where Mia fulfilled everyone's expectations by considering something more complicated than I expected her to notice and making a choice.

Go Mia!!
I have been anticipating for this light novel for months now. When I finally received it, I started reading right away. It’s adorable and Mia definitely has grown and started making her own decisions. Her cutie prince has grown as a person. And Sion finally learned an important lesson.
I believe my favorite part of the story, is reading snippets of when Mia died. You read what happens afterwards and the regret tone. God I cried in that part. My respect to Ludwig.
You won’t regret reading this story and I recommend it to anyone who wants to read a princess changing her future.

A Main character who shows remarkable growth!
The first book left me a little... Uncertain how I felt about Mia. This book shows that her development as a character shows a lot of promise!! I feel remarkably parental feelings of pride towards our main character. She is starting to see why her actions are good, and to make choices herself.

Still good, but it felt like Mochitsuki was trying to tie up too many loose ends that didn't need to be tied up at all - frankly the character interactions are more interesting than a step-by-step of how Mia changed the world.

After falling in love with the first volume of Tearmoon, I decided I immediately wanted to run into the second volume. So within a day i ran out and got the next volume. Was it as good as the first one? Well no, but that doesn't mean it wasn't very good.
Let me clarify. the first half of the light novel was just as good as the first one. 5/5, no problems. it dealt with mia having to deal with an issue in the forest with tribespeople and was great. However, then the second half happened.
Essentially, her future telling diary goes away, essentially signifying that she'll no longer get her head cut off in the future. However, where do we go from here? It's then that we find out the group that was trying to get Tearmoon to fall realizes that Mia fixed all the problems they tried to create, so they shift to Abel's empire instead and it's up to Mia and her friends to quell a rebellion and save Abel.
This.... lost me a little. I really enjoyed the stories more where she was fixing problems in her own kingdom through sheer luck and ineptitude which people mistook for sagacity. When it became a "save somebody else's kingdom in a rescue mission" it indeed dragged a bit for me. I can see what they were going for, but there was a good 100 pages in the middle where i wasn't enjoying it nearly as much as i had previously.
The characters are still all great, ludwig, Anne, Chloe, etc, (Sion i'm...still tolerating as he's getting SLIGHTLY less annoying), and it's cool that her ineptitude is still saving the day for her, the second half of the book just took a long time to get there.
I still adore Mia and think she's a riot and a half. That hasn't changed one bit. She's still every bit as annoying and selfish, but you can see the bits of kindness starting to etch their way in to her heart and it's pretty sweet. True she does the right thing for the wrong reasons a lot of the time, but, in the end, she still ends up doing the right thing.
I also thoroughly enjoy this book's sheer aversion to violence. Not one person has died in this story so far (if you don't count bad ending prologue in the bad future) and i love how it's going out of its way to save people and rehabilitate them, even those who don't necessarily deserve it. Since Mia had no second chance, it's nice to see her character come off as "other people besides me deserve that second chance as well" (even if at times this resolution comes from her own selfishness)
Despite her true motives of selfishness, everyone Mia meets comes off as a better version of themselves for having met her and I find that wonderful. It's not quite a slice of life, but it's what a medieval politics book should be. A story where there's stakes, but there doesn't need to be people exploding and being stabbed every five pages. Where political intrigue can be fixed with words, not violence. Is it unrealistic at times? Sure. do i care? no. And even though i grumbled a tiny bit towards the middle of the book due to it dragging its feet, i still adore this series and this book. I can't give it AS high of a rating, but it's definitely a 4.5 out of 5.
Still rounding it up to a 5 with the small caveat that the first volume was better. so instead of a solid 5/5 it's a 4.5/5 rounded UP to a 5.

Mia has more or less reset her future by preventing the downfall of her country, but her work is far from over. Prince Abel, the person she chose over Prince Sion this time around, is facing a revolution in his own country. And Mia's not sure she should help, or how. She's not the wise princess everyone believes her to be. But she has to do something . . .
Everything I said about the worldbuilding making no sense for the first volume goes double here, because not only Mia, but also Prince Sion, somehow decide that going undercover to a neighboring country is a good idea. And other than a few token arguments, no one tries to stop them.
That said, taking Mia out of her comfort zone, and taking away most of the people usually enamored with her, was a good step forward. She's able to show off the (very few) things she can do on her own, which she learned as prep for being overthrown, and she's starting to care about others. A little.
I did like Sion having to face the issue of his own superiority. He's always been good at everything, and he doesn't see how that leaves him without compassion for those who struggle to do what comes effortlessly to him.
Overall, if you liked the first book this is probably worth checking out. I'm annoyed Mia takes one look at her "happy ending" and decides it's too much work; as the sole heir, she's going to be working whether she likes it or not. At least if she doesn't want to be ousted as a drain on her country. I rate this book Recommended.

It's good, but unfortunately average.
The tropes and events were very typical of a fan-rom Japanese light novel, which isn't bad if that's what you wanted, but not what I originally read it for.
I came for the snarky narrator and the humorous silly recounting of events but was left disappointed as these flairs didn't really feel as witty. Part of the reason why I enjoyed the first volume was due to the fact that it was absurd and satirical; Basically had barely any plot, and contained all the qualities and tropes that every other Japanese fan-rom light novel has, except that it had a comedic charm to it.
I do understand why the author switched it up by adding a sprinkle of plot—as the whole premise is basically that Mia has to remain passive and inert for the whole comedy to work, and that gets boring quite fast—but personally, it just highlights how exceedingly tropey the whole novel is.
Nevertheless, though this volume was somewhat ordinary, it was still fun for leisure reading and I'll still be checking out the 3rd volume. There are outcomes hinted that keeps my interest going.

I really like this light novel. It reminded me of some of my favorite pieces of media. One of them being Avatar Last Airbender. The other one being I swear I won't bother you again. The fact that they kept referring to Mia as the moon of the Empire, reminded me of Yue. Of course if Mia is Yue then Able is Sokka and I love that for him. Not to mention the plot point of the Sunkenland Kingdom basically being similar to The Fire Kingdom. Wanting to spread their Kingdom through Force. Moving on the comparison I see with I swear I won't bother you again is that Prince Sion reminds me of Prince Claudia. There morals being unflexible, feeling righteous but not seeing that there are grays. Morality is not black and white. Loved the ending it's very cute. Princess Mia getting married with Prince Abel and having beautiful grandchildren. Of course that's not actually the ending because it's been rewritten but I loved it.

Pretty much, I had a blast, looking forward to the next volume.
P.S. The bonus story was just as lovely as the one shared in Volume 1 and oh my lord. I really like some of the author's adorable to hilarious commentary from time to time (including the profound ones). Hahahahaha.
[Personal thoughts]
If there's one thing that I do agree with the author, that this is definitely a book series that I wouldn't mind recommending my kids and grandkids to read.
I'm getting ahead of myself here but even with the first two volumes, I can tell that this series covers a number of topics and subject matters that I don't often think about, consider, or have experienced yet.

The misunderstandings and the writing are just as good as the first volume, if you loved the first volume you should definitely carry the series on. Mia is slowly developing as a character without losing any of the characteristics that make her uniquely her and the scenes from alternative timelines/the original timeline that are sprinkled in are absolutely heartbreaking! I can't wait to see what Volume 3 has in store and what kind of world Mia is going to craft for us! Also Dion might be one of my favourite characters in this (of course after our Goddess Mia)!

I like this series a lot more than the similar titles out there right now, including the one with it's own anime on Crunchyroll (ahem). It's probably too early to say this, with just 2 books out so far, but so far this series might be one of my favorites, all-time. I'm really invested in the characters, and the story is funny and interesting, while most if not all of the character development seems to be earned.

"Just as good as the first one. Actually the first half of vol2 was way more interesting this time.If you liked vol1 then it's totally worth the read. "
My only complaint is that the second half of vol2 was dragged on. We can clearly notice the story being told in direct speech only to have long paragraphs in the middle describing the obvious. If I were to guess, the book did not have enough pages so the editor added filler material to stretch it out. The story itself was good though.

This one was action packed! I was honestly dying of suspense for a while there.
This is also the point in the story where Mia starts to understand that what happened to her wasn't entirely her fault and she has to come to terms with the unfairness of the whole thing. The way her flashbacks were triggered and how poignant they were while shaping her resolutions was beautiful.
It's a silly, funny story but it has a lot of heart.

It's basically the first volume again, but whereas the first novel was basically just a flat series of incidents, this one has more of a plot. So that's nice. Sion gets a little character development, which is also nice; it seems like a likely pitfall of this series is that Mia has to remain basically stagnant for its one joke to work, but I guess we'll see.

Esta parte es mucho más completa que la anterior, debo admitir que no esperaba toda la conspiración tras los eventos sucedidos y los capítulos dedicados a la línea del tiempo anterior son por mucho mis favoritos, no sé si continuaré pronto con los siguientes volúmenes, a pesar que los tengo, pero realmente es una historia bastante más interesante de lo que esperaba.

Ridiculous and tropey - but if you like the go-back-in-time-to-do-better-villain stories you will probably like this one. Definitely a case of a main character that somehow stumbles into success through good luck and misinterpretation.

This book was definitely a bit slower than the first but the ending let's you know that book three is going to ROCK your world with the main characters coming to some realizations about their situation and positions in the world!

Everything comes together
The first book suffered a little with a web novel short story feeling syndrome but this one felt more together. All the little pieces set up come together in a satisfying way.
Looking forward to the next one

Must read
I freaking love this girl and the humor balances the tragedy well. The historical aspects are very realistic and complete your journey into this world.

A good story
Once again the author delivers a delightful tale about the misadventures of princess Mia. May she be forever misunderstood and her deserts forthcoming.

Fuck both Abel and Sion. It's a shame that Dion & Ludwig have zero chance to end up with our princess.
