----------------------------------------
It seems that this episode isn't to popular nobody has made a topic for them yet. I am very intrigued by the "masked man" it was rather kawaii when she jumped on him because she is scared of thunderstorms. Also his thing about maybe marrying her was rather odd, I mean he had to now that she was the consort of the Emperor for that short time. Anxious for the next episode...

i'm really curious about why Reishin won't tell Shuurei that he is her uncle and Kijin's intentions towards her. i hope Ryuuki will get the document to pass. (which i'm sure will anyway. XP)

Ok...so maybe I was wrong about the woman thing :( Darn, it woulda been so cool too...oh well.

Anyways, it was really cute how Shuurei screamed and jumped on top of Mr.Mask. :)

Aww, what a cute episode. I had to pause it when Shuurei was found on top of the Mr. Mask dude (can't remember his name for some reason >.<) by the two others working in the department, because I was laughing so hard. It would be weird if he asked to marry her, but a little competition between the Ryuuki and him would be hilarious.

I liked the quote for this episode, "A journey of a thousand miles begin with a single step." I knew it way back in high school, oh man that brought back memories. :D

Yeah the Emperor has an uncanny 'spider sense' specifically attuned to her. XD

Another Imperial Court character. Wait...according to their conversation, the guy who introduced himself to Shuurei as 'Oji-san', he's a real uncle to her. Maybe he could be a brother to Shuurei's father, Shouka? It seems he also adopted Kouyuu, so that makes Shuurei and Kouyuu first cousins by affinity?
You see there's no need to wonder where your god is,
Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy.

Okay nevermind, I see why Kijin is weird even if he didn't wear masks. The way he speaks is so monotone and blunt? He's an interesting character. I think it's fairly obvious to anyone that Shuurei is not a boy...especially her voice lol :P it does seem like Kijin has taken a liking to her which is good, it gives a higher possibility that the proposal for women to take the exam to be accepted by him.

Great Episode!

Shuurei is a hard worker! Even if she's a woman, she still can do these physical tasks with no problem!

Seems Kou, Houju has taken a liking to her :)

And wow! I actually thought that Uncle guy was Kou himself. So he's Shuurei's true uncle? He's also related Koyuu is related to him? Does that mean Koyuu and Shuurei are relatives??

And that scream! That was really loud! She could have been mistaken as a woman in that instant!

Shuurei really wants to pursue being an officer of the parliament. I do hope Ryuuki manages to pass the bill!

Wonder what Reishin and Kou are planning? They don't seem bad guys so far.

Ryuuki's really desperate to see Shuurei!

and wow Kou's mask opened O___O

I hope to see more exciting scenes in future episodes!!!!

Reishin is really Shuurei's uncle haha. No wonder he was so happy when she called oji-san :p I wonder why he won't or can't tell her the truth though. He dotes on her so I doubt he'd do anything that would bring her harm.

well, he was obviously rejected for being prettier than the woman,
such is the fate of pretty boys and handsome men.
(i just reached this conclusion when they mentioned he wears a mask since he got rejected)


-ouch, i kept facepalming so hard when she assaulted the poor fella,
scared of thunderstorms, prlffft,

More mysteries and secret identities. It hasn't been made clear yet what happened to all the brothers of the emperor, so whenever a new character is now introduced, including the masked man, I'm wondering whether we'll get another brother added to the cast.
