Premise An ordinary family that loves cats, the Tanaka family, was one day killed in an earthquake. When they woke up, they had reincarnated as the Stuart noble family in another world. Though they dressed in Western style, they have the memories of their previous Japanese lives.
Characters Stuart Family Formerly the Tanaka family, they all woke up in their reincarnated bodies roughly at the same time. With their modern values setting them apart from the medieval kingdom they live in now, the Stuarts attempt to continue their former lives. Leonard An Earl, who cannot go against his stubborn wife. Melsa Stuart Matriarch of the Stuart family. She never had grandchildren as Mrs. Tanaka, even with her children in their 30s; this makes her have an unhealthy obsession with forcing her kids to get hitched just for that. She couldn't care about the kids' happiness unless they were in danger. Emma Stuart Only daughter of the Stuart family, she was previously Minato Tanaka. Prince has a crush on her, but she can't see it as he's just a child to her; she is instead smitten with the king. William Stuart Youngest son and formerly Heita Tanaka. George Stuart Oldest son and formerly Wataru Tanaka. He kept the peace in the Tanaka family. Arban He is Leonard's brother and the only member of the Stuarts not to be reincarnated.
Stuarts Pets Violet A pet spider Emma had before regaining her memories. Violet is very smart and caring of her owner; webbing up enemies when needed. Komei Minato 's cat and leader of the litter. When she died of old age Komei wished to have 8 lives dedicated to the family, resulting in her litter being reborn as the size of horses in the new world. Emma can often interpret what Komei is trying to tell her by feeling. Kan
