The fifth volume of this series. It is more of the same from previous volumes, cute and low-key stories of Princess Syalis and her hapless nominal captors. Many of the stories show them actively trying to get ahead of her schemes and derail her troublemaking. Of course, this leads to more comedic shenanigans.
One chapter is about them trying to hide various valuable magic tools so that the princess doesn't steal them, like she has before. This leads to the tools being unavailable for their intended use.
Another chapter is about the princess attending demonic kindergarten, with the adults worried about her preying upon the little tykes like she does them. It turns out to be an unintentional Paranoia Gambit.
Then there is Hostage Re-education Week, which is a multi-chapter event of the demons attempting to make Syalis act more like a proper hostage. None of these plans involve actually hurting Syalis, of course. This is still a silly, harmless, comedy, after all.
The art continues to be cute and endearing. This is a fun and relaxing read. The chapters are short but there are many of them.
