The Sacrifice and the Night of the Ritual

The Sacrifice and the Night of the Ritual (生贄と供犠の夜, Ikenie to Kugi no Yoru) is the first episode of the Sacrificial Princess and the King of Beasts anime series.

Summary
Sariphi arrives in the kingdom of beasts as the 99th human sacrifice to its monstrous king. But this surprisingly upbeat girl isn't what anyone expected. What will come of her brief days with the king before he's scheduled to devour her?

Plot
However, unable to do so to the girl who showed him kindness, Leonhart breaks her shackles before pulling her into a hug which Sariphi embraced, telling her that she is his now.

The day after the ritual, Leonhart announces that he planned on making Sariphi his future bride and queen instead, much to the shock and horror of Anubis and the council. When one of the council asks why he wants to mix the royal bloodline with human blood.

Trivia

 * The anime reveals that Sariphi's adoptive sister's name is Maria.

Anime and Manga Differences

 * In the anime, Sariphi tries to wake up her adoptive sister in the flashback by using her name. In the manga, Sariphi only ever refers to her adoptive sister as "sister".
 * In the manga, there was an innuendo at the end when Sariphi says "This isn't what I meant by "eat me." It was cut in the anime.
