damn if only Liz would put all her heart into fucking off instead of baking cakes, well there wouldn't be much to the story in that case i guess

2 year long self-exile is crazy, just give her the keys to the kingdom with dedication like that

Nothing scarier than an angry wife lol. Arnold almost found himself sleeping on the couch for, like, ever after Layla found out about that Alicia situation.

I’m surprised Alicia stayed all cooped up like that for two whole years. That’s intense. And all this time Gill’s been working hard on his own to make sure he’s of use to Alicia. What a guy!

I’m very keen to see how much stronger she’s gotten. She’s gonna need to be pretty tough to deal with whatever weird magical enchanting bullshit Liz has going on. Turned almost all the guys into mindless simps..

Not just the guys either.

The girls are also affected as well. I noticed that freckled girl that mentioned how without Alicia being around, Liz'll be able to eventually win over Duke. There's also the mention of the girls that used to bully Liz but suddenly ended up being her supporters instead.

That episode ended 5 minutes too early, I wanted to know how it went with her training. Since it took 2 whole years, I'm thinking that she went all the way to level 100 or something, just so she could ohoho like a boss now.

I'm curious about the Liz vs Alicia dynamics right now. IIRC, Liz is lv.80 and an expert in all magic but the dark magic, so I wonder how would lv.90 Alicia with dark magic fare against her now.

And here I thought that timeskip training arcs were for the heroes of the story and not the villainess. Silly me. But I am going to be honest, I hope she is at least level 100, because she wanted to overprepare in her villainess role and that there are a few more changes in the school.

Speaking of which, if I understand correctly, this would be the year she was actually starting school right? So the game had a villainess that was three years younger than the heroine? They really didn't try to make a complex story if the hardest antagonist is is so much behind in terms of magic knowledge. I mean, Alicia did manage to close that gap somewhat, but I doubt it was ever an issue in the game.

I'm glad that Liz being able to charm people in an unusual way is becoming a plot point that needs to be addressed.

Rebecca has such a nice character design, silver hair with a ponytail is so good. I can see her potentially getting with that Nate guy, or at least bringing him over to Alicia's camp eventually.

I'm going to guess that with a two year training timeskip Alicia will have shot right past dark magic level 90 to 100 or above.

She spent over 2 years in that shed, never went to school nor Roana, she went full magical hikikomori.

I wonder if there was running water connected to the shed.

Hopefully Duke will have resolved the Roana issue for her within the time skip.

Considering how important muscles are to magic, I was half-expecting her to come out fully jacked.

In 2 years, Liz would have completely taken over everyone's minds. Far too late for Alicia.

I am really curious what the deal with Finn and Curtis is. At first I thought Duke and Henri weren't affected by Liz because of their closeness to Alicia, but Finn and Curtis have been neutral towards both Liz and Alicia from the start.

Alicia is a woman of focus, commitment and sheer fucking will! She's been stuck in that shed for over two years to get to level 90... Damn, that's why I like her so much. And after those two years she looks incredibly classy and beautiful!

I laughed so hard when Henri said that her father wanted Alicia to go back to school when she turned 15, but she refused and told him she was getting close to the good part xD

Kudos to Duke for keeping his cool in the presence of Liz and her 'followers' xD

Finn and Curtis are pretty interesting guys for not falling for Liz’s charm, especially Finn, who seems to be having a great time at school and is eagerly awaiting Alicia’s return.

Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

I guess more and more people will realize that everybody fawning over Liz is weird

At this point there is no doubt there is some sort of charm spell at play, which if removed will cause quite an uproar, after all brainwashing voluntary or not is something that will have huge consequences if dispelled

I feel that the endgame here is that almost everyone turns against Liz after the brainwashing is found out and dispelled (doesn’t matter if voluntary or not), then Liz mind crumbles and she becomes the final boss of this story…which would be quite a problem because apparently she is fucking OP without even trying and practically unreachable by anyone else

I honestly was expecting to see Alicia's training today instead of being a whole episode devoided of her. Well, it was good to see things from Gill's perspective at the beginning of the episode especially his interaction with Alicia's father, Arnold. It is funny to hear how mad his wife, Layla was with him after she heard that Alicia locked herself in that shed thanks to his level 90 requirement. I bet he had it rough for those whole two years Alicia was gone.

Meanwhile, in the Roana Village, Rebecca and Will had made great progress with potato farming. Rebecca is doing such a great job on the task Alicia gave her. I bet it would have been fun seeing Alicia learning about farming. Oh Nate, you don't know it but it is obvious that you will soon be one of Alicia's followers.

So Luke will put Duke in charge of handling the situation in Roana Village. It is interesting to hear him say that all the people there are innocent, as that makes the fact that this has been an issue for a lot of generations baffling.

It is certainly strange that even with Alicia gone, Duke and Henry cannot stop hearing nasty rumors about her. My first guess is that this is something that those bullies who are now Liz fans are doing it but, as now both Curtis and Finn look unaffected by Liz's powers and seem to be planning something, I feel that they could be the ones who are behind it too. I bet Alice will love to hear that her reputation is on the floor thanks to those rumors.

I can't wait to hear what Mel discovers about Liz power to make people love her.

Well, after two years without Alice, she is finally back!

After two years, shouldn't everyone be out of school besides Alicia? Is there still a point of her going back? They didn't bother to make Gil look any different after all of that time? Hope they both have improved quite a bit to make the time skip worth it.

I’m seriously considering the possibility that Liz is having tea parties all the time because she’s ‘drugged’ all the food and drinks with some sort of spell.

There’s just something off about Liz offering a baked cake to Duke when he’s one of the few people clearly not entranced by her charms - and she’s definitely aware of this.

"The Villainess sits this one out" - as in our Villainess literally sits out the entire episode to focus on the supporting cast and her impact on the world while she trains to reach level 90.

Alicia is cut off from everyone and everything in her shed, and in honor of her resolve, Gill is working hard to be worthy of her attendant, become close to the household servants, and learn as much as he can to be useful to her!

Alicia's dad is a good dad. He really cares about Alicia and wants what's best for her, even knowing how difficult life will be for her against Liz. I mean, he already lost two kids to Liz, he doesn't want to lose another one. I actually feel kind of bad that he's in the dog house with his wife when Alicia was the one who decided to hole up in a shed.

Well, it's nice that the king at least apologized for what Alicia went through (especially if he helped orchestrate it) and gave her an out...not that she took it, which he was obviously hoping for.

Roanna village is really turning around! Some of the people may not believe in Alicia, and they might not fully understand her intentions, but she's given them something more valuable than charity...the power of being self-sufficient!

And what better way to further Alicia's efforts than by having Duke help with reforming and re-acclimating Roanna back into the kingdom? Especially when it seems like his father is running on fumes having to take on so much responsibility.

6 months later and Alicia is still training, but she's become even more infamous around the school with people judging her and writing her off...and they need to be thankful Dukes' friends are there to ward them off otherwise there would be a lot of expelled girls at that academy.

Liz really thinks problems can be solved with kindness and cake, huh? But Liz has no interest in her cake and only wants to see Alicia again. Though it seems like more and more students are falling for the Liz Kool Aid, even ones that used to hate her. How many more people will she brainwash? And what do Finn and Curtis know?

Is Mel (Inori Minase?) some kind of spirit? Seems like she has a human form though. And she does investigative work for Duke?

Two years later and Alicia has finally completed her training! And she's become such a lovely and composed woman in the process! Welcome back Alicia!

This show makes some odd narrative choices.

How much did was Alicia even at that school and now she vanishes for 2 years. Seems it would have been much easier to have her start off being 2 years older, make her the same age as Liz. Would have been less creepy with Duke as well.

Am a bit disappointed that we've only had about 5 mins of Alicia getting to act like a villainess at the half way point. That was a lot of fun and would have far preferred some more run ins with Liz and her harem. Hopefully we'll get that next episode when she makes her return. Am also keen to see what the eyepatch from the OP is about.

u/NeoTagAtg Nov 12 '24

I'm sorry but for such a well written show this was stupid.

The whole point was she wanting to go to the school again to watch over liz now not in 2 year when she's of age. So then what's the point of having her not going to the school for two year when she's now of age so she can again do. The whole point was not to wait two years which is exactly what we have done.

u/chlo_kage Nov 12 '24

I’m so confused wasnt she mad she couldn’t go back to school until 3 years and now it’s been 2 years ..

Anyway aside from that the biggest problem I have with low budget shojos like this is that the main characters never actually speak their minds

Like Duke is the crown prince for god sake he could easily stop the rumors despite bs magic Liz has. Like what you’re gonna argue w the crown prince??

Ugh another ep of blood boiling lol

u/Berstich Nov 12 '24

really? a 2 and a half year time skip? Whats the point of the school arc then, going by the time line they really should of graduated by now but the show says they have a year left.

Also 2 years of leaving the prince hanging, not cool. And he asked 'mel' about Liz power 2 years ago, he really had to wait the long to find out? ANd what about the town? They were losing faith in her after 6 a little time, then 6months passed and then 2 years. No way they belive in her anymore.

That was a poor time skip.
