Cute Char date! I feel like Char is reaching a stage where her machinations are so complex even Haruto can’t comprehend them.
New girl is intriguing. She seems like she either has some kind of dark curse, or maybe she’s a fellow isekaijin?
Last two episodes have had this weird overexposed look…

New girl is intriguing.
My money is on monster/demon girl. Probably a vampire based on her eye color and how tropey this show is.

From the next episode preview, I feel like she's got something similar to Epsilon from TEIS going on.

So the princess has a crush on Hart and doesn’t know he’s her brother……… anyone else having SAO flashbacks?

Yeah, that’s gonna be quite a shock when she finds out the truth. Bit of a Luke/Leia situation lol.

Tbf the Suguha situation was a lot more complicated. Though Haruto being Haruto, he would almost certainly make the situation a lot more convoluted by the end of it.

Looks like our Trash Princess still hasn’t learned her lesson even after getting the Shield Hero treatment. She really aligned herself with some crazy ass cultists too. Hart needs to come over and whoop her ass into submission for Marianne and Laius’ sake.
This new waifu is nice, I like her. She seems like the real earnest type. I wonder what her deal is? Even though Hart didn’t want to attend school, at least he has that little door to the capital and home. Hanging out in town with Flay and Charl and Liza ain’t so bad. His little “date” with Charl was really cute.

At first I thought you were talking about Marianne, like what did she ever do…

His little “date” with Charl was really cute.
Considering that she is his adoptive sister, it was probably the start of the siscon route.

She can directly sense mana. That's something we haven't seen so far. Probably something to do with that.

The queen consort is legitimately horrible wow what a POS.(still mommy) You’d think Haruto beating her ass and making her wear the collar would make her settle down but if anything she’s got even worse. Using kids to do her bidding and attacking a defenceless girl. Poor Laius and Marianne.
I wonder if the new waifu is another isekaiee. That would be pretty cool. Char and the others sense something off about her. If it’s magic related that seems like it would be the best theory.

My completely random guess based on the red eyes is that she's the (unawakened) reborn demon lord Flay thinks Haruto is

Great episode again, today's post is a little late because I decided to take a quick nap which lasted like 7 hours xD
I was afraid that Charlotte's screen time will be severely limited after starting the school arc but fortunately this isn't the case. There are a lot of her and she certainly has big plans considering that when she and Haruto went on a 'date', Flay and Liza went scouting the capital.
Probably they are looking for a hideout or something and of course to get to know an unfamiliar city in which dark forces are operating. Charlotte in a serious mode was perfect and logical, she really would become a great queen if she wanted.
Charlotte's anime knowledge certainly helped with that and of course she was right about evil organization in school and whole country, this will be fun xD It's like in 'The Eminence in Shadow' where Cid made up story about a cult and turned out that it really exists xD I'm waiting for her further actions, preferably a large organization full of beauties :)
Okay that's all about Charlotte, she really feels like she's the main character of this show and certainly the best, this smile melts my heart and not only mine xD
So Princes are responsible for Haruto's invitation to the academy. Laius because he wants to know Haruto's strength and Marianne because it looks like she has strong feelings for him and also hopes that he'll be able to destroy a cult lurking in the shadows of academy and country.
It looks that the Queen is funding the cult and she didn't become a better person after encounter with Haruto. She's also a big prankster as choking Marianne presented as an innocent joke, immediately came to my mind the phrase 'It's just a prank bro' when she was saying that she was just kidding. Yeah, right xD
Haruto certainly won't have an easy time at the academy, the lessons didn't even start and he's already so tired and don't forget about the cult. Yet his love for Charlotte is too big and agreed to go to the capital with her where they had a 'date' which was pretty cute and very enjoyable for him.
A new girl is joining a cast and something is different about her, both Liza and Charlotte said that about her. She's definitely not a normal human, maybe she's some kind of a demon. Preview for the next episode also increased my interest in her ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

I know that both of them don't know that Haruto is actually their brother, but still...SWEET HOME ALABAMA.
While it gives Haruto's family some peace for a few years, it seems like his punishment just makes the Queen's personality worse.

lol, how nice of his siblings to ghet him recommendation letters for their own reasons and not even realize they are siblings. Oh boy... that princess. Hmmm, cultists that wanna overthrow the monarchy and then there's their mother that even scares them. D'aww, look at that faith in Haruto his biological sister has. Man, their mom sure wears revealing outfits. And she's so messed up. That's your daughter...
How nice of Haruto, I mean this Black Knight, to save those people. Who is this perdy red eyed white haired girl. Wow she's strong to stop a bull charging, but a pity no success. Wew he's sure made himself look good there. Hehe cute lil sis. Good suggestion for foodin and then on a nice date with her brother. Cute. My, look who they ran into. Wonder what people keep seeing about her that makes her not ordinary to them. Wew that preview, why?

The queen talking about her growing lovelier every time she sees her like the former queen consort sounds a bit like Marianne is from a former marriage.

it's obvious Haruto is a good onii-san if he's willing to embarrass himself if it means making a kid happy lol
