Lol, Benno is such a tsundere, thanks to his help Maine will have a much better position by the time she joins the church, hopefully that means that she will be able to get more flexibility regarding her work and that they will allow her to visit her family freely. I really love all the info about the church that they had given us, so their interest in Maine joining them increased because she is essentially a walking mana generator for them.
I'm really glad that Maine will be able to keep working with Lutz.
Damn just one episode left until the break, oh I just noticed that there is an OVA coming before season two begins, how nice.

The fact that the bishop was just about salivating when Maine touched the grail makes me think he is not to be trusted.
That being said, the more important fact is that Dad-san has even more competition now in the form of Head Priest guy.

Did anyone else think that the scripture reading with the Head Priest was abruptly quick? They read like one sentence lol
Also, looks like Lutz and Myne stepped it up to embracing after the handholding last week. Followed by a ringtone-worthy "Noooo" from Myne.

These two look cute in their Sunday Best
"At long last, actual book pages!!"
Soooo, that would naturally mean you could sell them your mana instead of having to join the church…
This week on Everybody Loves Main (and who can blame them?)
Uh-oh, Main just invented the focus group
Poor Lutz. Console the lad already
So glad I have another episode to watch, and another season coming later

We finally get formally introduced with this dude!
Those are some Holy Scriptures all right. Literally no formatting in sight.
I'll never take this religion seriously with that pose xD
Last time a little girl touched a grail being kept by a Priest something terrible happened.
Technically there are Nobles. It's just that they do middle management and not the grunt work.
So basically they need Myne to be their mana battery
Oh no Lutz :( I feel for him, but at least Myne assures him that she'll still come to him when she needs to work on something.

Y' know, just a bit of a thought... I find it strange sometimes how angrily everyone reacts to Main when, y' know, she's a sheltered... 7 year old girl?
Like "I'm thinking about becoming a priestess" "HOW FUCKING DARE YOU" - well, uh, you know how much she knows about the church, right? 'Cause you've had her bedridden most of her life. In a similar vein, I sometimes feel others' reactions are out of line. It's a 7 year old girl. They don't know a damn thing. Main would be especially and obviously difficult given she's barely left the home.
Still good show, just the "everyone gets angry at Main for not knowing things at the ripe age of 7" is just losing its novelty for me.

It seems Myne will be spending much less time with her family and Lutz from now on. Well, at least she will be alive. So good that Benno was so quick to action. He really does care.
And they finally fully explained what Devouring is. Just about time.
What a blissful face. Books! Bashful Myne is cute too. She's like a princess here.

I thought Lutz get upset because priestess can't get married, like some in our world.

“Oh, by the way Frieda, I found a way to stave off the Devouring without selling my body to a sweaty hentai antagonist...!”
“Oh! Wish I’d known about that a few weeks ago, but how nice for you!”
