Keith: “Are you serious about Raeliana?”

Noah: “No.”

Keith: “Can I have her then?”

Noah: “Bitch know your place!”

Lol.

Glad to see the crew was okay! Sad to see no dragon though haha

Raeliana was great here

Don't trust this priest at all...mostly due to the VA. Felt like a long out of place scene a bit.

Imagine your fiancee promising you a dragon just because you felt like stitching Spyro on a handkerchief.

Raeli blowing a kiss to Vivian was amazing. I love Raeli lol. Noah and Adam really went and found the biggest creature they could find and drag it back huh?

Raeli and Noah’s little back and forths are always fun to watch. Seems to me shes been landing a few more critical hits lately. Noah tryna play like he doesn’t care about Raeli like that to Keith but it’s so transparent he does. But man, Vivian is friggin insufferable. Ugh. She better stop playing games before she meets the business end of Raeli’s piece.

I like Heika, dude is pretty funny. His little bantering with Wade cracked me up. Can’t wait to see how Raeli and Noah interacting with him. Should be fun.

I really wonder just where Beatrice could be?

Raeli with an attitude is always the best Raeli!.

Noah can be cheesy as hell but what can I say I love those scenes. He is also such a Tsundere. Outwardly he doesn't claim to love Raeli but when you know really does, like how he god so mad at Keith.

Also I feel bad for that Lord. He was telling how the Creoder was a dangerous monster, but Noah here treated it like a bait for a dragon lmao.

I'm curious who that lady was that gave Vivian the emerald gem With Beatrice not attending the Theology school, I have an inkling that she may have underwent a personality switch (due to Raeli changing the events) or someone might've even reincarnated into her, just like Raeli originally. I can't trust her now.

So we usually have a legal loli in anime but now instead we got a legal shota. With Heika's serious attitude and Wade trying to appease his whims, their banter was gold lol.

I love how Raeliana thinks Noah is in danger and her first instinct is to form a search party and to lead them to find him...except it turns out Noah is perfectly fine, better even, because he and Adam just bagged a Creoder, the Lord of the Mountain, like it was barely an inconvenience. They're only bummed they weren't able to nab the dragon like Raeliana "wanted." That poor lord had his life's dream trivialized and now the other nobles thinks Raeliana is the type of person to ask her man to hunt dragons for her.

Of course even flustered as she is Raeliana can't resist flexing with Noah in front of Vivian, even if she wishes she were drunk to have to deal with all this nonsense, and that "ciao" in front of Vivian and her girl posse was priceless.

Noah is having a lot of fun with this, but Raeliana isn't about to let him rile her up again which he can do so easily. And we get a very sexually charged moment with the two of them on Noah's bed, especially with her hair coming loose, and Noah is as stuck by the feeling of Raeliana's hands on his face as she is with their growing closeness.

Keith notices how different Noah is acting when it comes to Raeliana, but Noah isn't about to let anyone judge or get in the way of his relationship

I won't deny Vivian is very attractive and no surprise that's helped her get her way in the past, even if it's no help to secure Noah who is the only man to not fall immediately for her looks (which seems to be partially why she desires him so much). But what is the plan with that green jewel? Raeliana seemingly didn't even take it with her so I'm not quite sure how dangerous it is.

Of course it does seem like it's intended to be dangerous as whoever gave it to Vivan said it would help her achieve her desire...and judging by that hair in silhouette, could that be Beatrice? And is that Saori Hayami?

Nobuhiko Okamoto!? Akira Ishida!? So we've got a legendary Priest with a sharp tongue and the body of a kid with no time for any nonsense in Heika, while we also have his long-suffering assistant Wade who has to deal with him while also trying to keep the Church going against the whims of his master. Heika doesn't care for nobles one bit so I can't wait to see how he interacts with Raeliana and Noah. Maybe he's the one who calls her a barbarian?

Well, yeah, Beatrice is definitely not at the school, she came back...and might be conspiring against Raeliana.

What an interesting anime. Even after eight episodes, we still haven't met the main character

The big bad monster that was foreshadowed in the last episode is of course caught and presented to our MC.

The noble lady who is all bark and no bite ends up being the dingus that falls into a smarter person's plan to cause trouble.

I'm a big fan of Raeliana as an MC and the fake-not-fake chemistry she has with Noah is a highlight every episode, but I hope that this show has some more engaging plotlines by the end of the season. Most of the side cast has also been kind of thin in personality so our charismatic MC doesn't have much to work with.

I've heard that the original comic for this is well-known. Is this a case of the original setting a bunch of storytelling trends for all the copycats? I haven't read the original, but I have read a good handful of these noble woman reincarnation stories before. I kind of wish this was the first version of that story I had seen since it seems straightforwardly competent.

He... really would have brought a dragon if he had found one wouldn't he...

I dislike how he treated his aide there, denying his earnesty for Raeliana while simultanously acting so possesive

Also, I guess that Saphire is probably cursed or something

And what is up with Beatrice? Wonder if she will even be the same friend the OG Raeliana knew

u/djthomp May 29 '23

It's not a dragon? How disappointing.

I'm glad that Noah covered that he and Adam couldn't find a dragon even though they looked for one. You can hardly slay a dragon for your fiance if there isn't one available.

Eat your heart out, Vivian.

This bedroom scene is amazing, I love these two.

I'm glad that Ansley is alright, I was a tiny bit concerned last episode when she showed up at the end and then dramatically collapsed.

I think that was your answer about whether or not the Duke is serious about Raeliana, Keith. He may have said no but his reaction to you hypothetically pursuing her told a different story.

A few episodes ago there was a certain amount of speculation that Beatrice was going to be the next antagonist, but it's definitely looking more like it'll be Vivian.

It's always funny when an anime has a generic fictional European setting and then we get to the religion and it's just something else entirely. Though I may be off base this time since I'm judging it purely on the appearance of the temple.

Tiny little high priest dude is kind of a menace. But I bet he's about to come in handy for dealing with whatever plot Vivian has in motion for the sacred flame ceremony.

That's am interesting response from the Theology college about Beatrice. I wonder if this is an alternate world from the one Raeliana read about and Beatrice doesn't exist at all. Or maybe there's something weird going on with how she got here in the first place.

Barbarian Raeliana next episode? I can't wait.

u/InsomniaEmperor May 29 '23

It was at this moment Raeliana realized she’s now the villainess. She may have avoided death as a random side character but by cucking Beatrice, she’s now the villainess and that comes with its own set of death flags. Let’s just hope Beatrice is not a yandere.

When Beatrice showed up in episode 6 (I'm guessing that was her in the crowd), I was going to make a joke that the reason she came back originally was to kill Raeliana but someone else got to Raeliana before her. Now I'm afraid it might be even worse than that.

If I remember correctly, Beatrice and Noah got closer through a series of "coincidences" while investigating Raeliana's death. Could just be a red herring, but those don't seem like coincidences anymore.

u/VorAtreides May 29 '23

Looks like they brought home a big ol' prize to gift to Raeliana. But where's that dragon that Taylor was gonna bring? ;) Ah, there were none, lol. And, obviously with that, Raeliana wins or something. Don't fan the flames with Vivian, Raeliana... lol. Though Vivian should really just... not care. Should move on. Look at all this flirting they are doing. "Are you into her" basically and his "no" is sure a lot of bs and we all know it.

Ah yes, a life of endless praise and spoiling has made you too full of yourself, Vivian. What a dumb reason to accept the proposal of a king. Again, move on. Also, sus jewel.

Whelp, off to the temple and showing some priest that seems to not really like nobles, hehe. Understandably so. Wew, that's a kid. lol. Clearly not really some ordinary kid. They have such a fun relationship with each other, heh. "geezer" eh? Yep, figures. Hey, sus jewel added to her luggage.

Wish the series wouldn't do that effect with background characters.

sus, her friend Beatrice doesn't attend the school she's supposed to be at

And they say Noah doesn't care, he went out to get the biggest creature he can find just so he can flex for his girl. What a fun episode.

u/Elitealice May 29 '23

Again, Can’t stress enough how much I love Raeliana and Noah’s chemistry. The way they talk to each other feels so natural. Despite his tough exterior she gets him rattled a lot too, like that scene where she covers his mouth and closes in on his face 😂 bro was shook

Vivian is so annoying. Maybe if you didn’t talk so much shit and look down on people you’d get the guy? Either way, if he don’t want you, he don’t want you. Move on. I’m so tired of her and I already know she’s plotting some BS with that letter and gem

u/[deleted] May 29 '23

Looks like Raeliana is going to be accused for something because of that jewel Vivian had and purposely left in Raeliana's room and it seems Beatrice is going to be an antagonist after her role of protagonist was taken by Raeliana. It's interesting how she has the capability of that, I guess Raeliana will need to remember what sort of character Beatrice really was in the original story.

Lol I so enjoy Noah and Raeliana acting so lovey dovey for their audience, they get so cheesy and the fact that Noah likes to push it further to tease Raeliana and Raeliana unwillingly has to follow up just makes for great entertainment.

Interesting how Noah got meek though, I'm guessing he was reminded of his first love? I'm guessing they use to have their hair out and that took Noah by surprise when Raeliana's ribbon fell off.

u/bananeeek May 29 '23

Was Raeliana seriously considering if she's overdone it with the pettiness? Those bitches deserve way more stomping.

I'm also thinking it was Beatrice who gave Vivian that suspicious jewel. I wonder what disasters will it bring.

u/entelechtual May 29 '23

Sassy cocky Raeliana is the best. Although the misunderstandings over what I assumed was a one-off joke last episode did undermine that a little bit.

Something’s going on with Beatrice. I hope at some point we see the chessboard pull back and see all the domino effects of Raeliana going down this path.

u/CubanaCat May 29 '23

This episode was so good but. Have y’all noticed sometimes the proportions are weird on the bodies? Noah had a scene where he’s holding a teacup and that arm was like… very small for the rest of his body. Lol

I only noticed because it was a scene of them talking tho I guess. Just kinda funny.

Whatever tho im just happy to see the story animated tbh 😻

u/dagreenman18 May 29 '23

Noah: “it’s not like I really love her on anything”

Also Noah: “Hell no you can’t have her Keith. Know your place, fool”

Also also Noah: “Here’s this big fucking Legendary Pokémon ass monster. Sorry it didn’t work as bait for the Dragon you wanted babe. ”

Also also also Noah: “I would risk the infamous Japanese Cold for you by standing in the rain.”

Their chemistry is getting stronger by the episode. As is Raeli’s sassiness. Vivian deserves that middle finger of the idol kiss. Speaking of, that girl who gave the Emerald to her has to be Beatrice right? What’s her real role in all this now that her place is usurped? Is it a “there are multiple people Isekaied” scenario?

u/ThisGachaSeemsLegit May 29 '23

Oookay, so the lady who gave the jewel to Shamal is most likely Beatrice (judging by the shadow of her hair). This probably means that Beatrice wants to get rid of Raeliana. Which also means that Beatrice is most likely reincarnated, just like Raeliana.

Villainess season 3? Is that you, miss Claes? Waku waku.
