The Most Heretical Last Boss Queen: From Villainess to Savior anime is based on a light novel series written by Tenichi with illustrations by Suzunosuke. It was launched on the Shosetsuka ni Naro website in April 2018 and was later published in print by Ichijinsha in June 2019.
Seven Seas Entertainment licenses both the light novels and manga in English, and they describe the story:
Pride Royal Ivy is only eight years old when she realizes that she’s been reincarnated, destined to become the future wicked queen and final boss of an otome game. She’s got it all in this new life: razor-sharp wit, boss-tier powers, and influence over the kingdom as crown princess. Determined to sow despair and destruction across the land, she… Wait, what kind of a rotten future is that?! Princess Pride decides to drop the maniacal villainess act and protect the male love interests instead, cheating her way to saving everyone she can! Will this final boss end up earning the adoration of her kingdom?
