i love alexia. real waifu fr fr.
real csm energy with the dog behaviour. they even had a noodles scene.
banter continues to be funny.

wonder if this set up is going to somehow be mr. betrothed's secret flaw? it'd be funny.

Ok, so this is one of the episodes that actually made me stop and pay attention to this show... I LOVE it! Now, tbh, I am totally identifying with "cid" I'm a bit of a w#&@e for cash, but it goes WAY beyond that, and... yeah, I get cid. So yeah, I LOVE this one!

I am starting to see which direction this anime is headed. I think that this will ultimately be nothing special but by judging for what it is rather than what it could have been, it seems decent so far. A chunni that got isekai'ed and now we are waiting for a heavy plot to strike. Let's see where it goes

Against my expectations this was a very good episode that almost entirely redeemed the catastrophical beginning. Episode 1, and to some extent also Episode 2, had almost the qualities of an inside job to sabotage what is in reality a sound premise with a, seemingly, good story.

At the end of episode 3 we have virtually all the ingredient of a proper anime-style story assembled, some even in double layers, owned to the double-life motif of the story.

Now off to see the next episode. Awaiting with curiosity if the same forces responsible for the awful first two episodes will strike again to ruin the entire series, or if the beginning was a mere anomaly.

Let me guess the plot, now our MC will save the princess by showing her his real power and then princess will really fall in love with the MC, usual isekai plot.

nope, not at all... Thats what a her does.

this is guy is not.

he is the Eminence in Shadow.


This sad as fuck pathetic mc tired to hard and goes so fucking hard out of his way to be a loser and live a loser life... and despite all the blood and guts and killing per episode him doing about half of it he somehow thinks there hot as fuck chicks would waste their time time to go out of their way to deal with this pathetic perma-virgin.  

On top of that ppl keep saying this is a comedy but nothing has been funny yet that i have seen maybea small giggle once but thats it.

What the hell is this

Where all his waifu harem went.

Why they are replaced with this annoying white-head?

The show is trolling me and I do not like it.



Does it gets back to waifu harem in black clothes?

Lmfao he jumped in front of the truck??

Ok this show is truly something else.

Nevermind I had not even reached the asking out scene yet.

Literally what is this story? Is this some secretly god type of thing, Haruhi style?

I will get no sleep tonight.

Holy shit this is getting better and better.

I love that girl.

Cid's plan always backfires in a rather good way? Lmao.
This episode was just pure funny especially with how he managed to score a girlfriend so easily even though later on their relationship didn't last long and i literally find the coin scenes so funny like they reminded me of Denji and Makima's woof dynamic.

What an inconvenient relationship (that Cid bent into his convenience of sort) even though it's most desired by most. And big trouble you say? Probably another elaborate scheme of theirs, but what do I know?

Aren't we going to see big sis on this? She went berserk even chained last time when she heard about Cid to be looked upon by the guy Cid eventually beat up. She's on the capitol as well and it's been months, why the no show?

This ep felt really different from the first 2, in a not-good matter of fact. Probably a bit too sudden to have a 2 year timeskip after his group got disbanded
@FragmantLemon it's like you can literally see the author changing what he wanted the story to be about episode by episode

They really showed his death scene?? 0 sense. Like saying the word magic allows u to go to a magic
world... Also the name CID has some historial sense that its driven away, is not something important, but is an important detail

"main character tier event" (hahahaa more RPG vocabulary please) The dog thing seemed to be too much
Also think it was a mistake for the show to go direct to main suspect to direct torture so 3/5

Same level of wave-riding as the Shield Hero. The protagonist is a generic edgy Japanese teen No. 9993940. I am unthrilled: life is too short. Dropping this show, and may not look back.

Cid tries to be a background character but ends up being accepted when he fakes his confession to princess Alexia. Looks like she is stuck in an arranged marriage and used Cid as a scapegoat because of his status. She has an inferiority complex against her older sister who has already established her skills. Episode was decent.
