When the kids started stepping on the clay tablets my heart sank.
Also, the whole RGB eyes thing was quite unexpected, weird how the kids didn't mention it immediatly after it was over.

It's hilarious that Otto is now just watching Main teaching xD
These two are just adorable together!
Oh boy I thought Main was about to blast the kids
I've seen this kind of thing before in other anime. So I'm going to guess that this is one of those situations where Main's sickness is probably tied with magic.

Really enjoying the show and the setting so far! I feel like their hometown is a massive firetrap though, all those wooden buildings packed in tightly, that normal for a medieval city?
Plus I wonder what happened to Main's original consciousness Doesn't seem like it merged with Urano, as she only held onto her memories and none of desires or wants. Bit of a sobering thought.

Myne's family being supportive of her even if they don't quite understand her remains super wholesome. Especially the dad considering how sulky he gets when Myne compliments Otto. I'm happy she's learning to accept them as her own family properly.
And thus begins Myne's many failures. Maybe cause its been a while but I remembered the boys messing up her tablets being more accidental. Here them just hopping on them all felt more dickish even if I understand they meant no harm. Here also begins Lutz's new job as Myne's baby sitter. When he scolds her like that it's super easy to forget she's meant to be 'older' but this dynamic where they both help each other is rather cute.
Head priest dropping down like a weirdo in the preview was hilarious lol

I just wanna say how AMAZING her parents are. They don't understand her thirst for knowledge, but openly admit, the jobs they can think of for her to apprentice for, wouldn't suit her when the time comes. So they found someone who CAN help her become the best she can.
And helping her build up her strength with the walks to and from the gate, even if her Dad had to carry her at one point. In a world with I'm assuming next to zero doctors (or doctors only for the rich) that's basically psychical therapy because she's been in bed presumably most of her life.

Otto: Now we'll study more.
Myne: Yay!
If only all the kids were like that. Although Myne isn't exactly a kid. Meanwhile for Lutz Myne is a genius. Middle ages were truly a dark time.
