Nice to see such a strong bond between Oscar and Andre. Marie's character walks the thin line between annoying and endearing. Just as I start to find her annoyingly simple-minded and possibly bratty, she goes and does something admirable like standing up for Andre, Oscar, and Fersen. And I laughed at Fersen's "Oscar, you're more manly than a man".

Also, jeez, this show loves to use their sparkle effects!

So it's not manly to sigh? I'll keep that in mind.

And I agree Antoinette is pretty annoying and a spoiled brat, but she can't ehlp it, she never knew a situation where she was NOT the center of attention. She's old enough to start to reflect a bit on situations though. But she's definitely not a bad person.

And then there was the wooden stick of doom that made me expect cyborg Oscar for a moment. But it turned out well, strengthening her bond with Andre. Their relationship is by far my favorite one so far. Very Reindhard/Kircheis-ish. I guess that means Andre will die a good way before the ending :/
I probably regret this post by now.

This pretty much sums up my thoughts on the show. Very good episode.

Young Oscar and Young Andrés made me chuckle. :D Their voices were pretty amusing, IMO. The sparkle effect's [over]usage is another thing I find amusing. So, indeed, I was quite amused by this episode.

I agree with other commenters that Andrés and Oscar's relationship is probably my favourite one here. Antoinette is naïve to the point that, yes, she really does start to walk a "thin line between annoying and endearing", as atrophaneurae succinctly put it.

So where is Fersens relationship with our main characters coming from? He was introduced last episode and suddenly started to hang out with Oscar and the rest.
I wish this Anime will start to move forward soon. Till now we just had "dumb girl doing dumb stuff" and "evil traitors plot conspiracies but fail because of Oscars luck".

So the anime earlier on hinted to me that there was going to be some kind of love triangle between Fersen, Antoinette and Oscar, but I really do not see how this is possible (with the development so far... When Fersen first appeared I actually initially thought Fersen would love Oscar and Antoinette love Fersen that kinda thing..)

And it seems that Andre has some strong (love) feelings for Oscar...?

Oscar went to go save Andre from being executed while she was bleeding a lot from her arm wound. See Andre she still cares for you. <3

"I will give my life for you just like you did for me yesterday" Yep death flag for Andre. T^T

Considering the time period this show takes place in there is a death flag for pretty much everyone.

Fersen's a chump; speaking up after Oscar did, and then she acts like it was some kind of heroic gesture. He wouldn't have said diddly if it weren't for her sticking her neck out in the first place. She's the hero, dammit! lol Maybe her feelings for him don't allow her to see that?

Major death flag for Andre this episode, the amount of foreshadowing in this anime hinting that it will end in a tragedy is pretty strong :(

Wonderful episode. The chemistry between Oscar and Andre is really the highlight so far.
Poor Andre. That foreshadowing was really hard to take...

Loved that scene where everyone and especially Oscar spoke up for Andre,but Fersen could have said something a bit earlier.

That mini flashback of Oscar and Andre was great too,what a friendship.

Oscar sem dúvida alguma tem um coração muitíssimo nobre, e isso é o que eu mais admiro nela. Esse episódio também me deixou com medo, em relação a resignação de André em dar a vida por ela em troca do que ela fez por ele.

Great. Since when the princess started getting so spoiled? She saw du Barry riding a horse so she requested having one too; and above that, once she got it, she didn't listen to any of the instructions Oscar and Andre were giving to her and she stuck to her excitement just getting on the horse; thus she upset the horse and caused so much trouble to the point of all the blame fell on Andre. What a BRAT. It's none's but her fault alone!

this is what happens when you're a lil spoiled girl, life gets back at you... ahhh Atoinette, the horse ain't Oscar or your soft heartened Prince v-v they told her to stay still, but yeah shit had to happen and the horse went on a rampage- her girly and fancy outfit was eye catching tho t-t
my Oscar got injured too :c

UNFAIRNESS fuuuuu how tf is Andre guilty for the incident smh :v (i will keep my disgust towards the king low cause i know royalties were protected so by no means would they ever be guilty of anything :v while commoners had to carry the weight f*ckers :v) death penalty? lol give me a damn break .. justice? hello, it's me (?)

Oscar save him!!!!!! your most loyal man t-t (btw Andre is my fav in terms of feelings and all the love affair/childhood friendship during the series)- loyalty really buys me

skipping a bit the injury part-
Fersen's reaction after finding out Oscar is a female hahahaha priceless :D "you don't wanna peek at a woman's naked body, do you Fersen you pervy sage :v"

Damn that selfish brat Marie almost costed our man André's life (since he's the one responsible for the horses as the stable guy) and injured the manliest of man Oscar. I don't get a good feeling hearing André say that he'll give his life up for Oscar someday...

Great episode, I really like how they went more in depth about Oscar and Andre's friendship. I'm really starting to like Fersen more tho, I never expected him to risk his life for them like that.

Andre might be foreshadowing something there. I hope he survives to the very end.

Now that Fersen knows that Oscar is a woman, I wonder if something happens there.

Fersen doesn't seem like a good person , another reputation player?
Also princess was childish and egotistical from the start and now she is just getting bored of being caged in her castle and just wants some freedom. She is not a bad person , just pretty stupid and capricious.
What's Jeanne up to?She will have a major role I guess.
There''ll be a lot of deaths , Andre's death flag is not the only it feels like.

"It's not manly to sigh" ugh Oscar relax and then she go feeling all moved easily by Fersen lol at least Marie is entertaining with how annoyingly spoiled she acts.

Andre feeling all dramatic and romantic this episode.

Now Fersen got more interested in Oscar?

It was honestly quite upsetting to see Marie spending time with another man. She is the wife, the Dauphine and the future Queen..

Also, I feel a bit guilty for feeling this way but I did wish Marie would fall off or be thrown off the horse. Sometimes that flower-garden head of hers need to be told that there are actually people who go to a lot of trouble to fulfill her desires.

Ugh, and that "someday I will give up my life for you".... I hope none of them die.

To be honest, as much as people hate her, this anime is currently being hard carried by Madame Du Barry. I also really like Andre a lot (problematic fav). The rest of the characters aren't enduring at all.

- Oscar is annoying. She obviously cares about this affair with Marie and Fersen because she has a crush on Fersen.
- Marie is annoying. I find it funny how she slut shamed Du Barry, while having an affair as a married woman.
- Fersen is bland AF.
- Marie's husband (he's so irrelevant that I'm not even going to remember his name) is bland AF as well.
- The King is just plot device.
- Duke Orleans is a rather bland villain.
- The rest are side characters.

Madame Du Barry is the only exciting one so far, and Andre has some charm about him.
