The Empress Strikes Back

They take her throne in episode one, and the remaining 61 episodes are the recovery of it. This 62-episode revenge title from 2026 is the court version of the counterattack arc: the weapons are legitimacy, marriage and public record rather than evidence folders, and the reversals happen in front of witnesses.
It is the shortest revenge title in our index after Rebirth From Betrayal, and the compression suits the material. A court plot needs alliances to be visible and betrayals to be public, so the show keeps its cast in rooms together and lets the politics do the work instead of spreading out into subplots.
It is complete, but no published figure exists for The Empress Strikes Back, which keeps it out of the revenge order.
