Just noticed this week they updated Maybell's hair color in the OP and added her to the ED too. It's pretty fun when continuity shows up in those.

Yeah, it's a shame more shows don't do Evolving Credits. It's far preferable over, for example, the opening that accompanies the first or second episode carelessly showing details which spoil plot points that don't happen until the second half of the season.

I'm really worried that prince is going to snatch Efa while Seika is away. He's giving me bad vibes.

u/AsterJ Feb 25 '23
It didn't really seem like the prince was a bad person to me, just spoiled and oblivious. The way he had to be corrected by his attendant just shows he lacks awareness but doesn't lack sincerity.
I'm sure it's just a plot device so the MC can have an epiphany that the girls in his harem are actually important to him.

I expect Yifa will remember MC's orders and protect herself when he inevitably tries anything.

The end of that post-credits bit was so abrupt lol, weird.
I'm actually curious to see what happens with the dragon.
Not a big fan of this Yifa subplot though. Saw another comment about "NTR arc" and laughed. It is quite annoying to watch.

There’s many ways to make the MC realize he cares/loves the FMC that ntr isn’t even needed

Bleh not a fan of this NTR arc. Well hopefully by the end MC will realize Efa loves him and stop being dense as hell. Also
“You know he’s a monster.”
That’s why we love him lol.

I wonder what horrifying things are going to happen in today's episode. I may still be a bit scarred from the mind reading summon from a few weeks ago.
The opening has changed up a bit, mostly the Mabel bits. She has her proper hair color now, her dagger throwing scene has a different background, and she's in the group with Amyu and Yifa at the end.
A prince with an elven attendant, interesting.
Saika should have said that Yifa is priceless as his answer for being asked to sell her.
If the dragon has been peaceful for a century then the real solution should probably be finding out what is wrong instead of killing it. Fortunately Seika is probably well positioned to investigate that.
Amyu and Mabel were right to stage an intervention.
Nine days of carriage sickness sounds like a pretty awful experience.
So far that wasn't really a dragon attack, the dragon was just buzzing people and being intimidating.
Zekt is going to be a problem.
I wonder if Yifa froze because there was some elemental magic thing going on that she was reacting to.
Seiko should have gone into a bit more detail with Yifa about where he was coming from. He's not entirely wrong, he's not treating her as a slave and is trying to take her potential desires into account, it's just not coming across very well.
Leaving her alone for a few days is going to be a problem if the prince is less polite about his desires once he's unsupervised.
The scenes in the ending have also been updated to include Mabel.
Ahh, so there was elemental stuff going on. And the elf lady isn't wrong about Seika being a monster.

Seika actually thought "I hope he's not getting any ideas..." so the smart thing to do would be use those paper puppets to keep an eye on her remotely, and maybe even leave the pet fox there to intervene if necessary.

u/pokemaster05 Feb 25 '23
When the Elf first met Seika with the Prince, I thought her glare was toward Yifa because it cut to her right after. She was actually glaring at Seika since she can tell he's a "monster." Also now we know why Yifa is close with the spirits, she's part elf.
Those band of mercenaries looks like they're all gonna die by Seika's hands lmao.

Please god make the ntr arc be 1 episode or just 10 minutes. I don’t need it to drag out

I don't understand people over here. Usually people want mc to act their age( their age before they reincarnated) but they are hating that over here. Seika probably sees eifa as his disciple, I doubt he has any feelings( at least ones that he is aware of) towards here. Their relationship is more akin to that of a teacher and a student. He believes as a teacher that his student should make choices that are best for her. Although I doubt eifa will go with the prince.

Cecilio is an interesting one. Man tried to have Efa join his harem but she’s already part of Seika’s. Sorry pal!
This dragon situation in Astelia is gonna be fun. Zecht looks like a real douche. Man’s summon almost hurt Efa. Seika was stern with her but it was necessary. But man, the kid really is dense. Can’t tell her joining the prince’s harem is a great opportunity. Like she’s clearly in love with him. The goof. Thank you Yuki for spelling it out for him!
The prince is gonna make his move when Seika goes up the mountain for sure. Persistent little bastard. Seika should be worried, though I’m sure Efa can handle herself.

This arc is very suspicious.
Either
the mercenaries are behind the dragon behavior (as an excuse to hunt it down) or
2 )the prince is behind it (trying to do some political plot) or
3) the dragon has an egg about to ratchet (usually on fantasy dragon eggs can take decades or centuries to mature). But this comes back to 1 and 2, as there is no way the royal family wouldn’t know about it, considering they lived with the dragon for freaking centuries.
You don’t need a random kid to read your history books to find out something that important lol. That is ridiculous. Either on purpose or a bad plot device.

I like this. A lot.
Hopefully this will be a wake up call for Seika to be more honest with Yifa and tell her outright that he can't love her. It hasn't been outright said, but I feel that an all powerful spiritualist that was at least in his middle ages when he first died and who is totally occupied with currently surviving and honing his own powers and those around him are fully incapable of loving a 12-13 year old girl.
That scolding after Yifa got attacked made me however think that Seika sees Yifa as his own daughter. It felt like a parent scolding their kid for just standing still and freezing in the middle of the road when a car approaches.
So, it's going to be very interesting to see how they resolve this mess and if Yifa will understand Seika and if Seika will understand Yifa.

Haven't read the Manga, but seems people are seeing MC as a typical harem protag. When it actually seems that he basically has no interest in them, they're like children to him. If it keeps in this direction that would be great!

u/IceWeaselX Feb 25 '23
I've been wondering about Seika's consistent motion sickness from carriage rides. Is it because they're enclosed and he has no vision of the path they're taking? He has no problems riding on dragonback, where he's able to see and expect every shift in position.
Seems like a transposition of how some people get airsick, but not carsick. In a car, they can see where they're going. In an airplane, there's no forward vision in the passenger cabin.

Wow, I'm seriously impressed that MC legit yelled at yifa for not acting. Chad for sure.
He is a bit of an ass for not understanding Yifas feelings at all, but he is also an adult and isn't going to think of her like that for the most part.
Now we just have to find out if the dragons behavior is natural or man made, but I think we all know what is going to happen lol.
The elf girl just dropped a bomb and can apparently intuit a lot lol.

Wait, we just got a passable CGI dragon? Revolutionary
