AlthoughBibliophile Princessdoesn’t bring out and subsequently break the villainess trope until episode # 2 , the first and majority of the second episode set the microscope stage for the whole public spectacle before the substantial story can commence , as originally bewitch in the light novel series by writer Yui and illustrator Satsuki Shiina .
