It always seems like Yumiella would be a target, although this time around, she gets targeted by skilled assassins.

They're still pairing up her and Patrick although at this point, they seem to be the most important part in the show. Never mess with Yumiella when she's in a foul mood though. She can be quite scary. Only one more episode left...

Alicia has improved since the last time Yumiella forced dungeon raiding down her throat, and the same is with Edwin, William and Oswald.

Yumiella being called for an experiment from the academy's magic tool development team, though a lie like that would not slide them away from her, what cowards. Still though, this proves that Yumiella is deemed a threat from assassins, though this is hilariously nothing to her lols. Aside from the Otome Game mechanics, her comparing the assassins to monsters is a reasonable example, though targeting Patrick too, she especially will not let the matter go. Even in the kingdom, there're people like her with dark hair who are ostracized as well, not to mention the threat from within from Rita with the word from her very own father which her sister Sara is held hostage in, she's facing her very own family.

Rita and Sara are fine, though Yumiella now faces her parents for the first time. Though the plan has always been to instigate war from the king's faction, all of this is just gibberish for Yumiella who just wants to live life her way, and her parents are no exception to the rule. With the relinqushing of the title to Yumiella to take over her domain as a countess, she still has a long way to go, though she's still always on the move of how to improve things within her domain. But calling Patrick to be her adopted son, that's hilarious as heck to being familial as opposed to being involved romantically.

With Patrick revealing his intentions to Yumiella that he's been leveling up from the dungeons to fight the Demon Lord, he finally makes his confession clear from the ball that she's into stronger people than her...and what a kiss man, that's one.

The Demon Lord and its army await the arrival of the academy's capables, it's going to be a finale of a fight.

These assassins messed with the wrong person.

One fateful day, Ronald approached Yumiella with a seemingly innocent request - to test his newly crafted magical tool. Little did she know, it was a cunning device designed to seal her powers. To her shock, it succeeded, revealing Ronald's true colors as an impostor, part of a group of assassins targeting her. Fortunately, Yumiella's unparalleled strength at level 99 allowed her to shatter the magical bonds and apprehend the assailants.

From that moment on, Yumiella became the prime target for relentless assassination attempts. Wave after wave of assassins descended upon her, yet her level 99 prowess rendered them powerless. Amidst this turmoil, while navigating the bustling streets of the royal capital, Yumiella chanced upon a boy whose dark locks mirrored her own. It was then that more assassins appeared, to which Yumiella quickly dealt with and headed back to the school, where her maid explained that her parents were the ones behind all of the assassins.

Seriously, these guys... There's one with just a knife as his weapon. Come on, big mistake. Doesn't he know she's LEVEL 99? And then he acts surprised when the knife doesn't work. What did he expect? I never thought Yumiella's father would be behind it all. What a terrible dad. But hey, in anime, there's always some family drama, usually with the dad. And her parents not letting her do what she wants?

She's way stronger than them and has her rights. These parents are just awful. The mom even said she regrets having her, then suddenly wants her to get married. Crazy. But I doubt anyone can beat Patrick. And Yumiella seems to want him as a son, which is kind of sweet... is what I thought until that confession. Now that we've had the big confession and kiss, all that's left is the finale - beating the demon lord.

With Yumiella's hellish training, it should be easy, and then she and Patrick can live happily ever after.

That the parents where trash was clear from the start but to hire assassins to kill their own daughter just how low can they go.
Well they are dealt with now so we don't need to worry about them anymore.

Anyway we finally got the couple we were waiting for let's just hope that it wasn't a flag for the final episode.
Now the question is what will happen in the final fight and will the useless prince finally be useful?

The confession scene is very short but also reasonable since Yumiella has a no-nonsense personality. But even though it's short, it's quite complicated. For example, the confession is usually under a shining moonlight, but since Yumiella's element is darkness, the cloud cover the whole sky and the confession happen in the dark instead, with Patrick's love representedd by the firework shining in the darkness sky. And Patrick is such a smooth lady-killer, he pretend not to see the result even though he lose so that he'll force Yumiella to judge the result instead. If she said she win then her answer is no, if she said Patrick win then the answer is yes.

Bro got adopted then kissed in the same episode. The confession scene was very sweet. Also, it was clear the parents were going to be bad from the start(neglecting a newborn on hair colour) but to send assassins after their own daughter without ever meeting her in the first place is just garbage. Well, atleast she dealt with them appropriately

Things went super fast suddenly. In just one episode we got some serious plot (assassins and family matters), confession and go into endgame. Idk, maybe I'm wrong, but it felt rushed.
As a side note, her relationship with Patrick was developed rather nicely, but I'm still not a fan of it. I'd prefer if remained as comedic part.

Raaah, banger Akuyaku99 episode. Best yet.

Moral of the story, it be ya own people. Can’t believe the first time we see Yumiella parents in the story is because they’re trying to kill her just because of her relationship with the royals.. maybe if you talked to your own daughter from time to time you’d know she wasn’t planning on anything lol.

The assassin trying to stab Yumiella in her sleep got me dying man why would you attack a level 99 πŸ’€ like I swear so many of the characters in this series are so painfully slow. Sucks that the maid got roped into the assassination plot, but helping her sister and forgiving her was probably the best move by Yumiella

“Damn those losers I paid them a lot of money” πŸ’€ trying to kill your kid and then the first reaction you have is being upset that the assassins failed is hilarious. Very Unserious people. They got off quite easy with just house arrest imo, but Yumiella is too kind.

Getting son zoned is CRAZY. Patrick had to do a confession today because otherwise he would’ve been past the point of no return, deep in the abyss of the friend zone lmao. So glad they both finally expressed their feelings and the way it was done was so classic Yumiella and Patrick. Awkward, a little misunderstanding, sweet and sincere.

Not ready to see this end 😩

That confession scene was so dark and brief, kinda upsetting. Building up for it this much I hoped for something more profound. At least there's another episode to look forward to, usually this would be the end.

The conversation with her parents was so... well, let's just all remember this is a world of otome game and it shows. They probably weren't even in the list of important characters in the first place, and act purely in accordance to their one-line description or something.

Yumiella: "Now that I'm a countess, I need to think about my successor too."
Patrick: "S-Successor... Yeah, I guess so." (in his head): ...could it be? ...is this it?!?
Yumiella: "So... Would you be my..." Patrick: "Yeah?"
Yumiella: "My... my adopted son?"
POOR PATRICK πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ oh man, that actually made me cackle, the poor boy.
"You are NOT adopting me!" She already has Ryu as a son, no need to go overboard ohhhhh Patrick, I wish you the best of luck.
"I thought it would be nice if you and I became family. But I guess you don't want to, huh?" These poor kids πŸ˜­πŸ˜‚

He looked shady the second he arrived, I can’t say I’m surprised he tricked Yumiella. She’s pretty gullible, especially when it comes to her magic
“My physical strength is also level 99” she pulled a Mash with her muscle magic πŸ˜‚, go Yumiella!! It was a solid effort, but she’s simply too strong for that. The assassination attempts were hilarious at how badly they went, but it’s really cute how Patrick is worried

It is really hard to swallow that Yumiella has to deal with such scummy parents. They wouldn’t have to be terrified of their daughter if they had just raised and loved her and given no thought to the discrimination directed towards her, I’m sure she would have enjoyed having a relationship with them. But telling your kid that you wonder why you ever gave birth to them?? That’s a whole other level of cruel. It’s really sad that they couldn’t marry her off and decided to try to kill her, but at the very least, I’m glad that she learned that she doesn’t have it in her to kill anyone.

“Why were you in such a hurry to raise your level? To be ready for the Demon Lord’s return?”
“Because you…”
“I what?”
“I… wanted to be even stronger than you.” πŸ₯Ί he really is taking this so seriously, he has all my respect. I love that she used Rock Paper Scissors to tell him, although indirectly, that she liked him. Everything about that scene was beautiful. The best confession I could have hoped for the two of them!

Okay...let's see how they decide to resolve the anime. They really did erase almost all of the harsh discrimination from the LN...which I guess goes along with how they changed Alicia's character fundamentally in the last episode. Phil's scene (little brown haired boy that was blink and you miss it instead of becoming Ryuu's friend) was really different. Being excluded instead of being actually bullied by the boys are two drastically different things. I'm really not on board with these changes. I wish I had read the LNs after watching this so I could have enjoyed it more.

I did really enjoy Yumiella going to her parents' house and that whole storyline and how it was portrayed. And how they kept her motivation. And of course I still love P & Y's interactions. They are perfect and make this show still worth watching!

I was thinking to myself, man Yumiella really fell for that first trap easily lol, but turns out it’s not enough to keep her from using magic, those shackles were as good as play dough. And the other assassination attempts were goofy as well, especially the guy that tried getting Yumiella in her sleep lol, and it ended up falling back on Yumiella’s parents in this world who we haven’t seen the first time until now. Well now I wish we never did because they were definitely very poor excuses for parents, not to mention people lol, so Yumiella did the right thing and took their title by scaring them with a black hole, yeah that would probably work on me too lol.

And there were some good bits between Yumiella and Patrick, the first one where it seemed like there might actually be a confession but instead was an offer to become Yumiella’s adopted son was pretty funny lol, not what I was expecting her to ask, but of course Patrick was not happy with that. And with the upcoming battle with the demon lord being very close, we got that scene between Patrick and Yumiella in the dark, and the title may have spoiled but I was surprised by that kiss, I didn’t think Yumiella had it in her to understand what Patrick meant but maybe she ain’t quite as goofy as she appears, love to see it tho, glad the lad finally went for it. And with one episode left, all there is to do is stop the demon lord and his army, I look forward to seeing if it goes smoothly or something unexpected occurs perhaps in relation to the game taking control of someone else.

Time to drop this.
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

I also have to admit...I had hoped Yumiella would've been the proactive one after the realization...but I guess that clever janken thing makes up for it....

Yumiella has always been insecure about being loved by someone, with the developments that have been given I think she'll come to her senses eventually. Although it felt too fast-paced and a lot happened in one episode, I'm glad it finally happened. Congrats to Patrick for never giving up.

It makes sense they rapped things up in this episode to have last episode all about the demon lord and his army.

It surprises me, that so many people didn’t expect or were surprised by the confession and kiss in this episode, I was thinking that it should happen sooner than later, so they are a couple before the end.
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.

After the kiss it'd been hilarious to have Ryu pop up and give Patrick a congratulatory head glomp (I know, I know, Ryu's usually in his pen by evening).

Also, Yumiella is smart enough to logic out her parent's schemes and a fitting solution on the fly but can't figure out romance if it jumped up and bit her, hilarious. This spoof of otome deserves a comedy tag, can't count how many times I've lol'd in this series.

This is a nice 2nd to the last episode. Yumiella technically was just cleaning house and finally settling things up with her parents and technically with society as a whole - not to mention Patrick finally had the guts to confess and Yumiella also now understood Patrick's and her own feelings.
This is really a satisfying anime so far (manga adaptation is not far from the anime and actually the anime already overtook it, so I guess even if this season ends, the manga adaptation will still be there to continue the story)

LOL @ the Assassins... you know kitty level attacks aren't going to do shit to a level 99... or they are actually stupid enough to not know, LOL

And yea... "Dark color = bad"... sadge, this is a reflection of Real life that still happens in some places.

Tho with this series, Yumi said at the beginning that everyone in this "game" with dark color hair is dark attributes and dark attribute is extremely rare like light attribute.

But there are quite an amount of people wondering around with dark color hairs... I guess it's just "black color" that's dark attribute, rest of people with "dark color" are just regular people with normal attributes that gets categorized with "black" cause they're all "dark colors"...

.

And yea... the parents are so shitty... if I was Yumi, I would just kill them like hey tried to kill me. Pure self-defense.

Yumi's too chill and kind.

Especially with the Parents random switching sides?

Parents: "We're anti-king faction"

Also Parents: "Why not? if you help the king, you'll get great benefits for our Family Name"

Are you with or against the King? LOL... these Parents are retarded.

.

Also... LOL @ Patrick during the "succesor" scene.

Yumi: "WILL YOU BE MY ADOPTED SON"

hahaha

hahaha hahaha

hahaha hahaha hahaha

hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha son-zoned

.

Also, "ok, I'll stop being so reckless...." "but... when have I been reckless?" Pretty much all the time, LOL, if you weren't level 99.

.

But Patrick got out of being son-zoned and entered BF-zone. Gratz my man, you deserve Yumi. Patrick's one of the best non-MC supporting side male character. (since the MC is suppose to be the Prince and Friends).

Yumi deserve Patrick too, he's the most non-racist or actually the only non-racist in the entire series... everyone had something negative toward dark hairs even if they don't outright show it. Patrick's the only one that said he liked Yumi's dark hair since the beginning.
