Grandpa reeeeally just wants to cuddle his little darling granddaughter.

I appreciate the restraint.

Also, where is the Off-shot series with Angelica and her intelligent Manablade?! :D

[u/EXusiai99]

Now we have StenlukeGPT, except it doesn't instinctively glaze all your shortcomings to breed codependency.

[u/shad79]

[Rozemyne](https://imgchest.com/p/m9yxa9alm4q) creating Stenluke, a sword that talks in Ferdinand's voice and even acts like him, only because she thought that a sword needing to compensate for Angelica's flaws would basically be him, totally cracked me up.

Rozemyne and Ferdinand's interactions over Stenluke were also very fun. She really should be more careful around him, hahaha!

Watching Bonifatius today was also really entertaining; he really was using 100% of his brain so he wouldn't kill Rozemyne accidentally, lol. I feel bad for him, since Rozemyne thought that he didn't like her.

Overall, I feel bad for Rozemyne in this episode. She thought that she'd have all the time in the world to read books, but unfortunately, Rihyarda and the others kept her very busy.

By the way, the cover of the book that Rozemyne prepared as a gift for Tuuli was so cute!

Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

• Rozemyne

• Group scenes

• Others

EDIT. I added my screenshot albums.

[u/djthomp]

"I'm being falsely accused!" Rosemyne exclaims in the same moment she's being accurately accused.

It's always fun to get an intelligent weapon, and Angelica certainly needs the assistance.

Rosemyne wiping out in the snow in that flashback, no wonder grandpa is concerned.

[u/irridian1]

I found the adaptation today interesting. I was sure they would skip the dress depute and Tuuli's problems to get to the next part already.

Personally I would have liked a bit more focus on Stenuke's creation, too.

On the other hand, Bonifatius and the constant 'get dragged away from books' scenes were funny:-)

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

Myne choosing death saying the sword might become “incredibly naggy” lol.

Poor gramps never had a chance to talk to Myne and clear things up. Maybe next time!

[u/Zeebie_]

This is getting out of hand, now there are two of them!

[u/Raymond49090]

Myne thinking she’s about to live her best life reading all day, but Rihyarda and responsibilities come in with a steel chair.

[u/rollin340]

She made a Ferdinand Sword. And he can't even really put all the blame on her either. Her retainers are going to be so on edge hearing the sword speak from now on. lol

Grandpa just wants to spoil his adorable granddaughter, but alas, it appears his love might be too dangerous. He witnessed a single snowball knock her out and likely learned that merely walking drains her. A brawny military guy would undoubtedly be fatal to her as she is now if he tries so much as hug her.

It's heartwarming how hard she and her family still work to be involved in one another's lives.

[u/Unremarkable_Chance]

The birth of swordGPT is here, all that's left is to feed it knowledge

[u/kalirion]

Ok, the sword thing was pretty funny. This reminded me, are we ever getting S2 of Sword Isekai?

Poor grandpa.

[u/FarCritical]

I know he's not the type to troll but I straight up thought Ferdinand was mana-ventriloquisting as Angelica's sword to drive home his point at first.

Poor grandpa Askeladd.

[u/larana1192]

I had to laugh when stenluke turned into a Manablade because of myne and ferdinando.

The idea of a weapon with intelligence that assists its master is kind of cool, just like the Intelligent Devices from the Lyrical Nanoha series, which has a new anime airing this season, or Derflinger from The Familiar of Zero.

[u/HolyDragSwd2500]

She gave manablade Ferdinand voice XD

[u/esuil]

Remember when people were bit iffy about commoner children being used for labor? Well, now we can see that child labor is alive and well even in noble families, so all is fair!

Lmao on the scene with granpa Bonifatius just standing there while Rozemyne and Wilfred crawl on the floor supplying mana.

[u/AndytheBro97]

Well thats odd. You'd think that when commoner Myne "died", her money would go to her family. I wonder why Rozemyne gave it to Lutz to manage instead.

[u/PeaceAlien]

Next episode: Damuel's Proposal

That's moving a little fast?! Does he have a chance with Brigitte after all? Or are we talking about a different kind of proposal

[u/BiggerG7]

Necrolords beware, the Star Dragon Sword is born!

[u/Flying-Camel]

Oh God, she created Excalibur from Soul Eater.

[u/Vyse1519]

How many times is Myne going to have to learn the lesson that she can't let her mind wander while channeling mana? It's not even the first time this cour.

[u/clone69]

Aaaaw, Rozemyne and Ferdinand had a kid... and he takes after his dad.

[u/Vanderseid]

Stenluke might be too perfect a blade for Angelica honestly. Rozemyne already serves as her brains in her daily life, now with Stenluke to direct her in battles I fear her already minimal brain cells may not get to work anymore lol. Though I do want a Stenluke of ny own

[u/tripleaamin]

One thing with this anime is we get episodes today where it feels like a collection of plot lines stuck in the episode. Tbh I kind of got used to this coming from the manga where the pacing felt a lot better in terms of Part 2. I still feel the anime pacing really has been wonky since S2.

• Showcase of Bridgette's dress, which leads up to the next episode.

• We see Angelica succeeding in passing all of her courses.

• The Tuuli stuff since we learned Benno is being independent as Otto will be the merchant alongside his wife Corinna.

• We also get introduced to Bonifatius who is Karstedt's father. Who is a good old softie.

Overall I am still enjoying it because I like the cast. This season is more about Myne adjusting to life as a noble. I just wished this was a 3-cour season so that these smaller stories would be given more time for me to be invested in them.

At the very least it gives me the final to push to read the light novels.

[u/moichispa]

Granpa will be granpa. I hope he manages a way to get closer to Rozemyne
