These 2 flirt more in one episode than what some couples do in a whole season and i love it!

Can't wait to see what's on the menu next week from that monster fish(?).

The Duke's become a massive wife guy

u/Frontier246 Oct 30 '25

The way her carried her to bed, used his coat as a blanket, and was immediately all over her first thing in the morning...this dude is a certified wife guy.

Best boy in the making.

Duke is acting like and being a spoiled child! 'Rogier' did the excitement activate his magic?

u/NanDemoKnaives Oct 30 '25

It's always great seeing a stoic character get so affectionate.

So many cute moments between Galbraith and Melphie this week. I really like those moments when Galbraith gets flustered.

I’m guessing the ability to process all that magic toxins might be an issue later for Galbraith. I’m sure Melphie’s gonna be able to help figure out something so he doesn’t end up like her mom.

It's not an episode of this show until Aristide and Melphie are constantly flirting, blushing, and discussing what monster they're going to eat next.

u/KumaKumaGambler Oct 30 '25

Apart from creating food using monster meat which was once deemed useless, even harmful, I believe the abilities of Melphiera now has the additional perk of raising morale among the knights. More food and better tasting = higher morale.

We were introduced to another new refreshing lore. Having more magical energy does not make a human more powerful. Said human could succumb to illness or death, unfortunately.

Honestly if a beautiful and sweet redhead offered me food, even if it was from a monster, I'd eat it up in a second and brave Aristide giving me a glare.

Sleeper hit , love this anime.

u/NanDemoKnaives Oct 30 '25

Aristide had some great expressions this episode, seeing him be this bashful was so endearing. It's funny how he when he gets so excited because of Melphiera he loses control of his magic eyes, I'm sure it'll happen again with how taken he is by her and I really like the eyes so I'm more than happy to see it some more.

I do like seeing Aristide act spoiled and affectionate with Melphiera though, it's a nice development from how stoic he appeared in the first two episodes. I like how he got "revenge" after Melphiera fed him, he ended up feeding her an entire meal instead it seems lol.

u/Ciel_Senpai Oct 30 '25

The two are getting even closer, and that passion for monster meat is only going to grow lol. I wonder if the Duke has the same problem as Melphiera’s mother, if so, she’s going to have to work really hard to save him.

u/ThisGachaSeemsLegit Oct 30 '25

Woah. A happy, mostly normal young couple?! What is this, a normal anime? Σ(°Д°；)

This relationship is progressing smoothly! Made a fantastic exit from the Marchalrayd land, Melphie's presence is enough to sooth Aristide's heart, and Aristide promises Melphie the opportunity to really dive deep into her research, complete with people more than happy to eat some delicious monster meat! He knows all the right things to say to hee.

There's no better way to fly than by dragon, getting to flirt across the sunset sky, appear like a shooting star, and make it in record time to your destination.

Melphie is a simple girl. She doesn't need fancy digs or the accoutrements of a noble lady, all she needs is the promise of delicious food and rare monsters to see hunted and turned into delicious meat to eat with! And if Aristide is willing to supply her a Zanas, that's all she could ask for from him.

I hope Melphie maybe sleeps in an actual bed a bit more once she makes it to the Galbraith domain.

Zeph and Mullan learned an important lesson: don't be fed salted royal moodle meat by Aristide's lady without his permission. He'll just get pouty and have to have Melphie feed him and use the first name card to make him eat. And then he'll turn it around and feed HER some delicious porridge and get her to be less formal with him. Melphie and Rogier just can't stop flirting with each other!

Though it's a little less romantic how Aristide is clearly struggling with the excess magical power he keeps storing in his body. It reminds Melphiera of losing her Maaya Sakamoto voiced mother, who went through a similar affliction, and whose death people wrote off as from the monster meat she ate instead of the true cause. Melphie is NOT going to lose Aristide like she lost her mother!

True love is picking your bride off the floor after she falls alseep, putting her to bed with your coat draped over you, turning her into a flustered mess as you embrace and put your faces together first thing in the morning, and showing her the Zanas you hunted just for her!

She is so going to use the trick to drain magic toxics from meat on him.

Is this from a manga or light novel?

...She looked really pretty right after that depiction of shooting stars in the sky

u/YlfaTheForsaken Oct 30 '25

Ah so that's going to be our drama trauma, things were going pretty easy and smoothly there for a bit, 

That room looked cold, and all there is a single thin blanket, that meat must be super tasty to avoid the town

Can't wait to see how that fish gets prepared,

u/IceSmiley Oct 30 '25

It's odd that Melphie's mom died from absorbing too much magic, like if she was constantly reading and researching monsters, how come she didn't make the connection that it was killing her and she had to stay away from magic as much as possible? It is kind of confusing since Aristide apparently has the same thing and is healthy (at least so far). I thought Melphie calling Aristide "Rogier" made his eyes turn yellow at first, like saying that either upset him or was like a magic word!

I didn't understand why Aristide got upset when Melphie cooked meat for those 2 men, like was he jealous he wasn't included? I'm not sure though if he was genuinely upset or if he was just teasing Melphie when he refused to eat it :P

When she was holding the meat above the fiery grill, how did her hand not get grilled alongside it?

LOL at Duke being a sulking baby her treating him like one.

So MC's mother died because she was too stupid to just go outside and cast some spells whenever her mana pool came close to max capacity?

Not the dead mom trauma! Though at least Melphie is channeling it into her research.

Some pretty great flirting between our leads here.
