Alright, let’s talk about ‘Tis Time for “Torture,” Princess Season 1 Episode 1. First off, if you went into this expecting dark, edgy torture scenes, you’re in for a surprise—this show is all about the food. Yeah, you read that right. The “torture” here is making the princess drool over delicious-looking meals until she spills kingdom secrets. And honestly? It’s way funnier than it sounds.
The episode kicks off with a badass opening: our princess, Hime, is leading her army into battle, sword raised high, looking like she’s about to take on the Demon Lord single-handedly. The OP song is catchy too—mixes action beats with cartoony vibes, which sets the tone perfectly. But then, bam, she’s captured by the Demon Lord’s forces. Enter Torture Tortura, the top torturer, who’s not here to pull nails or anything. Instead, she whips out a plate of freshly baked toast with gravy. And Hime? She’s a goner. Her reactions are comedy gold—wide eyes, shaky hands, trying to resist but failing miserably. It’s like watching someone try to say no to pizza after a 12-hour fast.
Fans on MyAnimeList are loving it. One user called it “comedy gold just like the manga,” and another said the animation makes it even better—seeing Hime’s face light up when she takes a bite? Chef’s kiss. The voice acting helps too; you can hear the desperation in her voice when she’s begging for more takoyaki (those octopus balls look insane). And let’s not forget the ramen scene—Tortura makes this bowl of noodles that looks so good, even I was craving it at 2 a.m.
But wait, not everyone’s on board. Some viewers are like, “Where’s the plot?” And yeah, the first episode is basically just food porn with a side of interrogation. One person even called it “odd food fetish series” and dropped it. Fair enough—if you’re not into food-focused humor, this might not be your jam. But if you love shows like Food Wars! or Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle, you’ll eat this up (pun totally intended).
What’s cool is that this is an adaptation of a manga by the same creator as Senyuu!, so the humor’s got that same silly, self-aware vibe. The anime adds some extra flair too—like the battle scene at the start, which wasn’t in the manga. It’s a nice touch to show Hime’s badass side before she’s reduced to a food-craving mess.
The characters are already winning people over. Hime’s a tough cookie, but her love for food makes her relatable. Tortura’s not a villain—she’s just doing her job, and she’s weirdly endearing when she’s proud of her cooking. Even Hime’s sword, Ex, has a personality; it’s like her tiny, sarcastic sidekick.
Will this get stale? That’s the big question. The manga has 214 chapters, so they’ve got to keep the “tortures” fresh. But if the first episode is any indication, they’re up to the task. One fan compared it to Sleepy Princess, which kept the gags going for ages, so fingers crossed.
Overall, ‘Tis Time for “Torture,” Princess Episode 1 is a fun, lighthearted start. It’s not deep, it’s not dark, but it’s entertaining. If you’re looking for a show to make you laugh and crave snacks, this is it. Just don’t watch it on an empty stomach—you’ll regret it.
P.S. That toast with gravy? I’m still thinking about it. Someone please make me some. 🥪✨
