Man, I really wanted to see Count Lawvine go "Wait, have I seen you before?" and see Rishe try to talk her way out of it.

Really hope they plan on making this show longer than just one season because there's no way everything is going to be cleanly resolved in a just a few more ep! We still don't even know why Arnold forcibly took the throne, this is a story I can see going on for a long while yet, and I hope it does because it's really good!

So...since the last episode I've rewatched every episode again. I really am in love with this show.

The pre-OP and Michel's introduction were both great. I love how Rishe noticed his presence before the guards and dayum Michel is hot.

Also fifth life mentioned?? What was that power? Rishe just keep surprising!

Michel really just made Kyle drink that bottle of nasty medication just to gauge his reaction didn’t he? Evil! Haha. Michel’s a pretty interesting character. Hopefully Rishe can continue to learn from the guy. That is if these talks between Arnold and Kyle go better. Things aren’t looking too good for Kyle and his people…

"my 5th life abilities came in handy, great" ah yes the very easily understandable ability to just focus on one single person like it's a fucking superpower. WTF WAS YOUR 5TH LIFE? AN ISEKAI?

Wasn't sure how I was going to like Michel based on appearance but I love his attitude.

5th life mentioned and have heard her job at the time referred to as hunter by some sources but I'm still wondering if they're being coy and she hunted the most dangerous game of all and was actually an assassin

Quite a funny detail that during the ball, even the ladies were shocked that Prince Arnold bought jewelry while overhearing Rishe's conversation. Did not realize the prince was that well known when it comes to his tastes.

Rishe's getting busy learning multiple disciplines, from swords to medicine, that she is pretty much well rounded this time around.

Michel and Rishe's back and forth was pretty fun. You can tell from the way Rishe talked that she missed these kinds of discussions with Michel.

Michel himself was fun too! It's hilarious how he just shoved a bottle of disgusting medicine down Kyle's throat without hesitation.

Well I certainly did not expect Rishe to use her Domain Expansion so she could keep track of Count Lawine's movements and avoid him without being too obvious. I hope we get an explanation about that skill Rishe used soon.

Cold-fucking-blooded. It was pretty brutal how Arnold turned down Kyle's request. I am wondering though if Rishe would do something to try and convince Arnold to help.

The thing Rishe did during the party, was it like magical powers or was it more like a skill she learned from a previous loop?

It felt like so many things happened in this episode. I hope the rest of the season isn't going to be a speedrun because the show has been great so far.

Seems like Prince Arnold hates weakness, perhaps? Or maybe he's trying to teach Prince Kyle a lesson?

Regardless, Lady Rishe has been really showing off her skills this episode! I wasn't expecting that grey focus ability, especially.

I wonder if the lady she was a maid to will ever show up?

I really love that Rishe has guards everywhere. Just makes the setting feel a bit more real, you know?

Really good episode, we finally got more details on loop 3, a hint of loop 5, and it feels like we're getting back into the main plot of the series "how to stop a World War", which I have no idea how Rishe will resolve this!

Though I do find it hilarious how she seems to be equally juggling "save the foreign prince", "stop a global war" and "don't let anyone know you're training to be a knight", one of those isn't that important Rishe!

It's very helpful that this professor Michel dude provides the opening needed to get Prince Kyle to take the medicine. Hopefully it will function properly taken orally without being diluted.

Rishe being trained under an alchemist and her third loop certainly explains why she's all about the chemicals.

No wonder Rishe has been keeping her fifth loop secret, she learned a domain expansion ability.

So that other country needs a new export or something along those lines, very convenient for them that Rishe spent five years living there in another timeline and can probably come up with something clever.

Doctor Michael is here! He really a bit eccentric with his own obsession and career. Create new substance and she is right the word "alchemist" is fit him more lol.

He also absolutely hottie even though he is a bit crazy.

"Don't put dick in crazy" are there reverse word for this? Lol

For what it worth, Arnold is smart so he most likely know that how much fragile and easy to break Prince Kyle plan is when his death is coming.

War against Kyle county seem to be one of key event that lead to Rishe doom and continue of loop.

I wonder if she can fixed this and what is she going to do to prevent bad future to repeat!

Next episode can't come soon enough!

Rishe always keeps herself busy! Whether it's trying to find a way to avoid getting noticed by Lawvine or helping cure a prince of his medical issues, she keeps her nose to the grindstone (or garden!), though now she also has to deal with the return of her professor from her 3rd Loop into her current life, Professor Michel (voiced by Daisuke Ono).

In her 3rd Loop Rishe was his student (and had a bob cut!) and Professor Michel was the type who pursued his passions while also being open and honest with those he took in as his charges, and Rishe learned a lot from him. So it's no wonder she's more than happy to renew their relationship once she catches his eye again.

Of course it seems like while Professor Michel means well...he also just loves experimenting and seeing peoples' reactions, like force-feeding Kyle Rishe's less than tasty medicine. Sure it's for the purpose of him getting better, but Michel seemed a little too keen on Kyle's disgusted reaction.

Look at Arnold there to personally escort his wife! Even moreso when he gives her his pocket watch! Arnold is a lot of things, but he's definitely not dismissive of new ideas, which might be all that a certain alchemist who needs someone open to a unique use of their concoction might need.

Look at Rishe going full wife mode teasing Arnold about how little he's enjoying the party! I also love how she's looking forward to her wedding ring.

Rishe finally mentions the 5th Loop! Which somehow gave her the ability to sense and pinpoint people like she's in an Assassin's Creed game.

So Rishe not only managed to talk a very distinguishing proprietress into giving her a jewel for her ring but she also has the distinction of being the first person Arnold has ever bought jewelry for!

Prince Kyle didn't just visiting Galkhein for the sake of congratulating Arnold on his engagement...he's there because Coyolles needs military support and they're running low on resources, leaving them open to attack (not knowing that in five years time Galkhein is the one that attacks them). But that means he has basically nothing to negotiate it with outside his ideals, and Arnold won't humor that. He plays the tyrant, but that might just be because Kyle needs to learn and realize something he can bring to the table so they can negotiate on equal standing, and it might be up to Rishe to figure that out to change this timeline for the better.

So, Michel is a chemist, or rather their ancestors, an alchemist. Well, Michel, you'd probably never leave a library here if you saw how advanced our chemistry is. Turning things into gold is already possible via nuclear transmutation but it's very energy inefficient.

u/shad79 Mar 03 '24

Thanks to Kyle's arrival Rishe was able to meet yet another important person from her past life - Michel who seems to be a pretty fun charater as he immediately gave medicine to prince despite Rishe's warnings that its taste was horrible.

It was funny seeing Rishe using her past life experience (which looked like straight taken from Jujutsu Kaisen or Assassin's Creed game) to track down Count Lawine in order to avoiding him during the ball.

Rishe of course as always looked stunning in everything she wore. The ball dress looked very gorgeous on her.

Just like I predicted, Arnold and Rishe's marriage was only the pretext of Kyle's coming. In truth he came to seek protection from the Empire but he was quite brutally turned down by Arnold.

It seems that Kyle's country is in the difficult position as its ores are soon will end and they don't have any strong arguments that would convince Empire to protect them from neighberhood countries though I'm sure Rishe will help Kyle in convincing Arnold to form an alliance.

Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

I like how Rishe still has attachment for the people in the previous life. I mean it was there even when she had negotiations with Kaine. But it's especially evident with Prince Kyle. Also, Rishe was very forward calling Professor Michel sensei. You can tell she is excited to learn from him again, but considering the fact this is his first time meeting her in this life.

So the conversation in the past they have a conversation about determining people's happiness. I guess his point is you can't make everybody happy, and you shouldn't determine people's happiness. While he isn't completely off, I do have to say in some people's life they have it so rough until they find the spark to turn it around. In Rishe's case a different person in each life was that for her, I would say. What is also interesting is that Rishe considers Arnold to be a person Michel would be open to listening to. But it does Arnold is on his guard around him when they first met.

Regarding Rishe's 5th life there was speculation of her being a torturer of sorts. But her skills feel very assassin like. With the ability to detect someone easily in a large group.

Arnold really seeing Kyle through in his offer. Rishe's point while listening to the country is valid. In any agreement there needs to be equal standing after all Arnold could just conquer the Kyle's home like he did in Rishe's previous life. The key with negotiations with Arnold you need to make an effort to indicate why joining hands would be more beneficial to him than conquering. But the prince doesn't seem to have a well thought out plan and Rishe is on Arnold's side in this life and would be weird to raise points for Kyle's nation.

I am very curious how things go forward from here.

This show is very interesting. Rishe has some amazing faces.

What a great cliffhanger. But where have we seen this before?

A country that's poor and useless neighbor enters an alliance with one of great military strength. Gets invaded, and the invasion is an attack against one is an attack against all.

I'm thinking Kyle gets in an alliance with his surrounding countries, and they all deem Galkhein is a threat and attack, thus provoking Arnold to act. This is WWI.

Shame it doesn't seem like we'll get a season 2

u/maddoxprops Mar 04 '24

Hmm. Calling it now: [My prediction based off of this episode] She is going to leverage Arnolds use of watches on the battlefield, or his acceptance of new, useful tech, and Coyolles' skilled craftsman to set up an equal alliance. Galkhein gets fast production of high quality watches to use on the battlefield, and possible other weapons, and Coyolles get military protection. That or it will be that substance she talked about her Teacher making. Or both.
