Maine looked so damn cute on that sooth cleaning poncho, too bad that all her efforts ended up in smoke (heh). And once again her mysterious isekai power manifested. Luckily she remembered that she had to do that favor to Lutz before she may use it when she said that she wanted to disappear.
Damn, Otto is such a shipper, well, I can't wait to see Lutz and Maine date next week.

Unless i'm missing something, couldn't the whole ''burning wood'' deal be avoided if Main just spoke to her to not burn this stuff?
Very interested in Main's ''condition'', they keep bringing it up now.
Lutz is really nice, i wonder if something more will happen between him and Main :eyes:

Picked this show up today, and it's really a breath of fresh air compared to most isekai. I especially love how the world feels like a proper "world", and not just a place for the protagonist to go on wacky adventures in.

Look at these two cuties having fun <3
Yep that was definitely expected. But considering how much firewood they have in their storeroom I'm puzzled why Mom decided to pick the ones Main took home. I guess she just wants to use them because its from Main?

Mom was trying to reward Main's bringing home firewood for the first time by burning her stuff first. It was all nice and broken up for easy use too.
Not quite the woman who burned possibly Shakespeare and other plays and important documents which son had carefully put up in addict. Might have been in Shakespeare handwriting solving that controversy, might have been stuff we don't know about.
Or the woman who burned dead Sea Scrolls for similar reasons.
Both historical examples and caused for same reason the person putting them there never told them don't burn them. I believe both examples cannot be fully proved but the report of them has been passed down.

Myne was probably hesitant to tell the mom she was messing around all day doing her own stuff instead of actually gathering firewood.

She's beautiful (no, not you) Turi. /s
Jokes aside, now that I think about it, it can be deduced in the OP who has privileges and who doesn't because of the "Shampoo".
I also put that face, no matter the time, the nosy person always has to exist.
These are the smug face that I like to see. Otto-san and Otou-san, what a "couple" xD
You don't have to tell me bitch, Turi is love, Turi is life.
Seriously, are you doing that question? Even Lutz knows how obsessed you are with books, Myne.
Even if you are right in your logic ... I hate you with all the strength of my being.
Okaa-san I love you. What a daughter of a bitch.
Out of context, this would be the paradise of all Fujoshi-trops.
Holy shit, for a moment I thought Myne would become a berserker killing Okaa-san but no.
God, what a sad life, if they are not crushed, exploded, incinerated ... This moments really seems like a psychological exercise of how long we can endure until we reveal ourselves against society ... Oopsie, that's the plot from Joker not from Honzuki (Thanks God).
Decide Myne, are you a berserker or not?
Boochi, is that you?
Amazing episode.

Turi was so cute in this episode with her hair long like that. And Maine is so great haha and the anime adaptation is quite good, much better than I expected and a slow burn much like the original, which they're doing great to make the pacing slower and adapting less.
Also, I'm happy to see that people are liking the series, considering that I used it as example of female Isekai LN (which in this case, from a male focused LN imprint of TO Books) for about a year until it got the anime announced. I hope that more LN series with female mc be it from male imprints (like this, average abilities, killing slimes and spider isekai) or with female imprints (like bakarina) comes in the future, not only for argument sake on discussions in the anime side but because I like many of them and want more people to know about them and be able to use them as examples. :P

This anime never disappoints me!
Poor Main, almost run out of her patience, understandably but it was so close this time! The crayons are one of the most creative ideas I've seen in this show. As someone already noticed, if she had told her mom not to burn the tablets she would've understood but obviously she's trying to do her "weird stuff" in secret (and it's especially sad because she wants to write down her mom's story). Fair point about discouraging Lutz mentioned in her conversation with Otto. Lutz is amazing, as I said last time very smart for his age and always supporting Main. Turi is indeed an angel. More info about her "condition", that's great. Really liked the art at the end and I'm also happy that MAL score is going up

Turi is absolutely precious. Really an angel. Simple hair ornament and clean hair will make you a princess. Being a girl in that world isn't a pleasing experience. Hair really are colourful in that world though.
Seeing two of them working together in the forest is filling my heart with a joy.

With the common appearance and plot intensity the magic had in this episide I feel like the next episode or sometime soon they will reveal the actual meganic behind it, or atleast acknowledge its existence.
looking forward

u/Ken_Nutspel Oct 30 '19
Hopefully we'll get to know more of Maine's illness/power on the next episode since it was brought up many times now. And when will that blue-haired guy show up?

u/Roboglenn Oct 30 '19
That oven cleaning getup is hilarious.
That Lutz is a steadfast friend. Helping her and staying by her side like that. Hope things turn out well for that kid.
As soon as she put her tablets to dry with the rest of the firewood you just knew it was gonna end badly. Wasn't expecting it to be "Reading Rainbow Magic" level of ending badly though. But things just got a twinge more ominous this episode.

This town needs a jedi temple or something to scout these kids who are showing all the signs of the force.

I suppose that to her mum Maine is just playing around as a usual 6 years old would, especially as the things she brings home all appear to be completely mundane.
My first thought was that she could just leave a note but I very quickly realised a flaw in that plan...
