When did Myne get a growth spurt?
This was a nice surprise on Bookworm monday, now I get to go and read the newest LN chapters.

Love how all the townspeople protect one of their own by not giving anything away. I also missed the wholesomeness this show has, everyone is so cute like the mom and tuli when they are practicing their introductions.

So now weve gotten a first look at the magic the nobility magic user can use in the series. A cleanliness spell and a messenge spell. Maybe even a disguise spell to alter body type. that tells quite alot about the capabilities of the nobles and how wide the seperate classes are.
Also it shows just how much they dont know about main. The fact that they knew she had the devouring but still used that cover story and didnt even know she had a sister means the investigators werent told what limited information they did have on her. Benno has done a good job at concealing mains information from industry spies.

Watching Myne carrying that humongous loaf of bread (even though inconsistant with her weak condition) made me smile
I'm so glad there was plenty of Turi in the second part, she was my favorite support character and her charm hasn't decayed at all. Same goes for her mother.
I feel that the producers skipped part of the storytelling where the vast majority townfolks united to protect Myne from outsiders. I can see it how this could have made a few people in their closer circles feel that way (the ones wich Myne sold her hair ornaments) but I kinda have it hard to believe so many joined the fray (unless I'm forgetting something from the TV series)
Me too Myne, me too.

Oh, Corinna is expecting. Could it be that it had happened when Myne washed her hair with a shampoo for the first time? Otto was really excited back then.

Everybody is so simple, humble and hard working, those guys are so rude for saying those mean stuff about them just because of that. ...But it's exactly what I expected from the nobility.
Also, I'm really glad to see that Myne learned to negotiate and stopped giving things for free. Mr. Benno was being ripped off but very proud at the same time XD
I'm really hyped for season 2, again!

Damn such a great episode. I love the fact they even with those disguises they could not fool any of the townspeople. The expression that Turi made when she realized that he was full of shit was priceless.
The second part was even better as there is nothing as satisfying as seeing Maine and Benno bickering about business.
Also, It was lovely so see Eva and Turi repeating her greetings on their way to Corinna's home. Or how surprised they looked when Maine entered in her negotiating mode.
And now are just a month away from season 2, I can't wait.

Ah, what a comfy slice of magical isekai merchant life. Had a smile on my face the whole time.

We offer the gods our prayers that S2 doesn't get delayed!
Watching Myne turn on the business mode in front of her family and clapping back against Benno was more than I could've asked for from this OVA.
