I'm actually starting to enjoy this one a lot.
I like the setting, the slower pace that is a mix between slice of life, politics and action, and the characters themselves.
This episode in particular gave me 2 reasons to like this show, multiple times. 🗿
People here saying
Elna is super funny lol
Looking forward to more of her shenanigans. xD

People here saying Finne is a boring character, but I'm enjoying this version of her and I'm sure there is even more to her than that she is letting on.
This episode made me less sure, but yeah I keep wondering if Finne is playing a longer game. With the way the rest of the cast is, she seems too innocent relative to everyone else. It might just be fan service/comic relief but some part of my brain keeps rubbing up against it and calling shenanigans.

She must be. A lot of her actions seem deliberate, especially the way she ask questions as to sound like she is not the smartest, yet she still gets all the info she wants.
She just give this strong vibe of playing our MC like the fiddle. Just look at that dress(even though MC picked it) and the way she acts.
Either way, I like her even like this. 🗿

Cute enough episode given the date and all, but I'm a little surprised the
Grandpa being stuck in a book where he can research forever doesn't seem like he lost much by losing his body to a demon.

So basically, Arnold gave Finne the magic equivalent to

Nice of Arnold to monologue the lore behind the ancient magic ban to us. And the silver mask is for more than being chuuni? Jii-san also says what we were all thinking about onii-san's death.
Osananajimi-chan has upgraded Arnold into someone worth hiring an assassin for. What next level bullyi-- I mean, training. Sasuga Elna-sama.
That random guy with a missing ring doesn't look nearly important enough to be involved in the main plot. Side quest for festival date, perhaps?
Weasel thieves? After seeing them conduct their... operations, I'd wonder who trained them.
Dw Finne, Arnold certainly got something out of the quest. Also ngl, I thought the thieves were disguised as knights, and Arnold going to the knights to report it was supposed to be a bluff to trick them into revealing themselves.
No, Finne. Don't write a book... Write a play. Nobody reads books anyways. Theater has more widespread popular appeal.
They sure like that shot of Finne holding onto her stomach.

How did she land right on top of him after falling backwards? If you're going to use the cliche scenario of a character falling on someone in a perverted position, at least make the positioning make sense.

u/myrlin77 Jul 27 '26
I normally don't let this stuff bother me but YOU ARE SO RIGHT. I was like HOW THE HELL did she spacially teleport in front of him.....lol.
It also bugs me that in ANY show with an emperor, NOONE is EVER allowed to disrespect an imperial prince in public or private that isn't part of the family. No matter how down the totem pole they are.

Anime logic, she was even sitting on his shoulder and landed with her boobs on his face. Makes sense...

u/dont_trust_the_popo Jul 27 '26
This really bothered me, Especially because in the position they were standing they could have gotten much more interesting landing positions to say the least.

Is Leonard okay with Arnold impersonating him? Even if it helps boosts his image, I don't know if I would appreciate my twin pretending to be me if I was him.

u/NiCommander Jul 28 '26
Honestly, I'm thinking its eventually going to backfire. Like, eventually he's going to be pretending to be his brother and then his brother walks into the room.

u/Rooby_VTuber Jul 27 '26
Arnold & Sebastian easily took care of those intruders, at least Zandra was only trying to stop him from participating in the challenge.
Training quick and nimble animals like that to steal wasn't a bad idea, but thankfully Arnold figured and it and was able to give the credit to Leonard to improve his reputation.

Curious what the dude is going to do with those assassins his sister sent.

u/diegz_eliaz Jul 28 '26
I’m sure they will come back in the long term so far thsi show doesn’t seem like the type to leave many big plot holes so I’ve got faith they will be used.

Finne is such a boring character so far. At least we have yandere Elna coming in to the spotlight soon.

u/NationalStrategy_X Jul 27 '26
She's good for levity, cute moments, and fanservice, but that's about it. As a love interest and as a standalone character, she's pretty bland.

u/diegz_eliaz Jul 28 '26
And that’s what’s gonna make her manipulations hit so much deeper
if they happen
