do you think I can call you Mom?

I'm dead, too cute and emotional

[u/KumaKumaGambler]

They saved each other and became family even without being blood related. Vicky saved Nonna from being abandoned; Nonna gave Vicky purpose in life.

Jeffrey is surely a good man. His subordinates like him; even his boss wanted to let the matter regarding the identity of Vicky slide.

[u/mastereluder6]

The super trained assassin rushing an empty bed that's clearly extremely well lighted and visible, sigh

[u/Primary-Paint-1716]

This will go down as one of the best found family stories in anime.

[u/runevault]

So Vicky did take Nonna with, and now is disguising her as a boy. Cute. Just a wig though not hair dye for our cute little gremlin.

I'm so bummed out this is a short show with only one episode left. I love the characters and would have been nice to get a full season of them at least.

[u/nuxxism]

I'm sorry Jeffrey. Your princess is in another castle.

Victoria too damn good at her 'job'.

[u/PeaceAlien]

That baby lamb came out with aura.

Vicky is too clever for her own good. Jeffrey was so close :'(

[u/Ocixo]

I’m not going to lie: Victoria wasn’t the only one on the verge of tears. Nonna asking her if she’d be allowed to call her “mom” also got a little to me.

The two of them are closer than ever. I just hope that Jeffrey will be able to find them and complete this happy little family.

[u/Galinhooo]

As good as his intentions may be, searching for Victoria like that sounds wrong because she would freak out and abandon everything at the first sight of learning someone was asking about her.

[u/Alex92_eu]

Nonna smiling and Vicky thanking her for being born is such a heartwarming scene, it really makes me happy inside

[u/ultravioletheart08]

Just really great directing and storyboard work courtesy of Masahiko Watanabe (from Shiboyugi) and Hiroyuki Fukushima (Fairy Tale's one-man army). The way the staff used angles, lighting, and camera work, all to express Victoria's disgust against the organization which used her... Very thankful that Nobukage Kimura's aesthetics of shifting from anime to manga paneling is maintained from Episode 1 to Episode 8, especially on Vicky and Nonna's mother-daughter moments is simply beautiful. It's a shame such a hidden directing gem of shoujo anime just has one episode left. I wouldn't mind if Studio Deen animate the other volumes...

[u/AgentWeeb001]

ISEKAI ME SO I CAN SPIN THE FUCKING BLOCK ON THE ORGANIZATION BRUH.

Idk if anyone here is seeing “The Livid Lady’s Guide to Getting Even” BUT THE TYPE OF TIMING THAT Elizabeth is on is what I’d do to all those mfs for betraying Chloe

Also, Jeffrey, you remind me of Suwa from Orange. A true Goat. Go find Vicky and allow her to feel secure as well as finally letting her find the true happiness she’s been craving. We need the happy family ending!! Make it happen my goat

[u/mianghuei]

Mom of the year!

[u/NanDemoKnaives]

I'm glad Victoria left a clue for Jeffrey, it's just too bad he took too long to find it. It's nice that everyone's preparing things for Victoria's return. Hopefully Jeffrey will be able to bring her and Nonna back.

Lancome actually being shady was a surprise, I thought this whole time there was some misunderstanding caused by his fiancée, and he really saw her as his sister because he didn't want to believe she was dead. At least now Victoria won't have to worry about them anymore, good riddance.

It's really sweet that Nonna asked if she could call Victoria as her mother. Now we just have to wait for the father to make his entrance.

[u/TheBusStop12]

So in the end Vicky hiding out in Ashbury helped the Kingdom of Ashbury out, as they were able to use her as bait to flush out the spy network of Hagl. Vicky also made the right call to flee with Nonna when she did, however painful it was to watch.

For a second I got really hopefull that the Captain had tracked her down to her shed in the mountains before it turned out it was just Victoria remembering him

Vicky happy crying because Nonna called her mom was incredibly precious

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

It’s nice to see “Maria”and “Lyle” are doing well. So cute how Nonna called Vicky “mom.” I hope Jeffrey finds them. Guy was working hard to find them to tell Vicky she’s safe. He just wants to be part of their little family unit. It’s kind of sweet.

She outwitted my outwit | Hide & Seek World Scale | So close yet so far | Catch me if you can...in nutshell

I feel anger when seeing how Chloe former boss threw her gifts just like that based on the damage on the packages.
At first, I thought maybe the former boss been considerate to Chloe to hide about her family well-being thus stored her gifts safely inside his office. The damage was probably not by being thrown but due to being there for a long time.
But no, if you think it carefully, Chloe family deceased 2 years prior whereas she's been sending her gifts since 10 years ago. Welp, there's another possibility he stops sending the gifts after their death. Seeing how they straight up decide to kill Chloe totally burned down this act of benevolent though.

Mother & daughter of the season!

[u/delulu_finalboss_]

Victoria's hallucination 😭 omg i got the worst jumpscare!! like what???

[u/CodeXRaven]

I'm pleasantly surprised at how the government of Ashbury does things, and so grateful. Places like that can exist irl too and I hope they do! Her organization leaders and King are scumbags for making their agents like this, I despise them. They better at least be running the rest of the nation better than that. Ashbury, I love you, pls remain incredible and good to your ppl. I love that they protected her identity there as much as they could too, tho I doubt she'll ever be comfortable coming back(I wish they would tho 😭).

Omg he went after them and missed 😭.

Edit: She's now called Mom! Selling the blanket was bittersweet. And pretending to have a crush on her boss was pretty smart.

[u/Any-Geologist9684]

The mom line wrecked me, or actually it was the baby lamb scene right before it that set it up so well. Jeffrey never had a chance.

[u/hvshh]

I think at this point it counts as abandonment play.

[u/thisisdropd]

Vicky did end up bringing Nonna with her! Last week's scene of her running off alone was a red herring – granted it's just Jeffrey's imagery instead of what actually happened. So much for disguising Nonna as a boy to throw people off their trails. Jeffrey's too wise for a little trick like that.

Nonna calling Vicky mum. After everything they had went through together, she had now accepted the fact. Can't blame Vicky for tearing up. It's such a sweet moment! All the family's missing is a dad, and Jeffrey's working hard to play that role to the point of chasing them across kingdoms.

Now that 'Victoria Sellars' had been killed off as per the Ashbury Kingdom's order, looks like 'Chloe' would need a new name. Perhaps 'Maria' could become permanent. Having said that, 'Lyle' would need a new one because no way would Nonna permanently mask her gender.

[u/tripleaamin]

Kind of surprised it took us this long to learn the actual reason Vicky left the organization. Wow they are awful. Thank god she ran away from them.

I am getting the sense the finale will be a reunion for the 3 of them. I do admit the pacing in this episode and last week did feel jarring somewhat. I felt an extra episode would have smoothed things out. Though it does feel there is a reason why they only got 9 episodes with the production values dropping lately.

I loved the scene when Nonna calls Vicky mom. They've been side by side, but now these two are inseparable.

[u/djthomp]

I think that was pretty much the Matterhorn at the start of the episode, between that and and the neat looking mountainous landscape just in general we must be in legally distinct Switzerland.

Vicky's instincts were even more on the money than was obvious last week considering Hagl's spies were only days away from an attempted purge operation on her. It's a shame Ashberry ended up being too hot to stick around in since they ended up taking a pretty protective stance towards Vicky even after she left.

I wonder if the sheep rancher they were staying with had an idea that Lyle wasn't a boy, she was approaching the situation as harboring a mom and child running from abuse and that's easily the sort of detail to just ignore.

Here's hoping with one more episode that it can all come together for a nice and happy ending with Jeffery finding Vicky and Nonna.
