| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Oh silly Viola. Whenever she gets more screentime, it feels like the show gets more crazier, in a good way though. Also interesting to see Walter this episode and his relationship with her. Also interesting to see some more of Alice's past too. I feel like this was also one of the most emotional episodes for her and the Duke. |
 |
| Cuff is learning how to write and read while Zain is working at a circus. And Viola's back once again. She's just messing around. That yuri bait was something else. And we finally saw the secondborn son, Walter. ''two'' is a cursed word for him. It was pretty interesting to see Alice's and Bocchan's past. They went from a gloomy, dark relationship to such a wholesome and lovely one. |

| Viola's quikcly becoming my favourite side character of the series lol, wherever she is, chaos ensues xD. Bocchan's past was rough, but nice to see alice got him out of his shell lol |

| Cuff learning how to read and write to impress Zain was so cute. Rob is a perfect teacher for her. We also got to see Bocchan and Viola's other brother, Walter who doesn't like Bocchan just because he's born second to Bocchan. He desperately tries to make Viola believe that he's better than Bocchan. Also, got to see Alice and Bocchan's past and how they used to be when Alice first came to the mansion as a maid and how they grew close to each other with time. A really heartwarming episode. I love them both so much. Alice is just too sweet. |
 |
| Caph and Viola hahaha. That backstory part between the duke and Alice was really great. |
 |
| Hahhah, the other brother obsessed with being second, I just hope he doesn't say anything to the mother 0.0 Viola catches Cuff because she thinks she's a ROBber to impress ROB. Good thinking God, seeing how they met and Bocchan before he met Alice, I can't think of how important she's been to him throughout this time c: Emmm, imo, best episode so far, almost got a little teary eyed (´･ᴗ･ ` ) |

| Great Episode especially the Second Part with the past of Alice and the Duke..they should've Made a whole Episode of their Story |
| Caph is learning her ABCs to level together with Zain, that's nice. And we finally know the family's brother: Walter, the next to ascend the throne, but the 2nd born son. Viola burning him was just the most hilarious thing ever with everything about him being 2nd place. WHAT A PAIN IN THE ASS about Walter LOLS. The first time that both Caph and Viola met each other, and like mother like dauughter, they're flat. The jealousy of the only sister from Caph's boobs that turned out to be a misunderstanding, and Rob's affections will never cease to please this sister-loving old men. A game of chess between Bocchan and Alice with the usual seduction, and the reminiscence of their backstory that's a stark contrast of their current relationship. Bocchan was distraught after learning of his curse, and the childhood friend Alice was brought and hired in as his personal maid for more than rememberance. Rob...is just the same old Rob. That's the starting point of the flirty relationship with the lows of Bocchan not being able to accept his fate. And try as Bocchan might to chase Alice out of the mansion (even choosing to leave the mansion without rebuttal), he couldn't muster why would she of all things, stay close to him after suffering through a similar fate of sadness. The backstory alone wins my heartstrings of how a relationship like Bocchan and Alice's is quite the strange one, but one that's still leaps better alongside most dependent relationships in anime. Now I understand and endear their relationship more. |
|
| Jesus this episode was so beautiful. Literally brought tears to my eyes seeing both Alice and Bocchan's backstories. The music in this episode was insanely good. You could feel the anguish that Bocchan was going through at that time as well. Sometimes you need a little light in your life to get you out of the darkness. |

| Good episode for character building and all that but I seriously hope they somehow break this curse in the next 4 episodes |
 |
| Wow! That was a beautiful episode. I felt bad for Alice in the scene where she was cleaning the room of Bocchan. It shows how much Alice loves him and to think that Bocchan also saved Alice from loneliness in the past, they are clearly meant for each other 😍 |
 |
| Such a damn cute episode. Really nice to see how Alice and the Duke’s relationship developed over time. That “it’s impossible to not like you” at the end was so damn cute. I hate how the score has dropped so much. People really sleeping on this. |
 |
| Cuff and Viola are surprisingly entertaining together. I hope we see more of that but wow.. I wasn't expecting an emotional episode like this. The story of the two is beautiful right from the start and it was very well done. |
 ManWild |
| That was a great backstory not gonna lie. Bonus for the Viola scenes. :D |
| Emo Bocchan lol... Another great episode for the most underrated show of this season. The CGI took like 1-2 episodes to get used to it, come on people... |
| Great to see how Alice cared about Bocchan since day 1. |
| I like how none of us are talking about Walter much. He was someone I was interested in learning about and now I don't care about him |
 |
| Another beautiful episode Part A w/ Viola x Caph was hilarious. I especially love Viola's voice and how they animate her expressions. Part B (the flashback part) was beautiful as well. The confession in the snow was done perfectly. Probably one of the most consistent shows this season. |
| Caph is learning how to read and write to impress Zain, how cute. Some yuri fanservice in this episode. Damn, the backstory between Alice and Bocchan is really well done. It, honestly, really got the point across well. Alice has definitely been a meaningful impact on Bocchan's life. |

| the second brother LMFAO kinda want to see him and the bocchan a lot, along with how it progresses alice tried damn hard to stay by his side and im so glad she did my fav episode so far :D |
| Pretty solid episode. The Caph-Viola combo was funny and the second half with the flashback of Bocchan and Alice meeting for the second time when Bocchan was at his worst was handled quite nicely. They are really meant for each other, huh? |
| Fuck man, that second half with how Alice started to work as a maid to Bocchan made me tear up. I also love the new intro scene before the op, that shit is wholesome. Fantastic episode! Cuff and Viola interacting is somethin I knew was gonna happen eventually, but didn't expect their interaction to be this hilarious lmao, that was great. Walter overreacting everytime he hears the word two or second and gets a seizure is pretty damn funny, I wonder if he'll come visit Bocchan's mansion eventually too. |
 |
| This episode reminded me of myself, I feel just like his past self, hopeless, helpless, worthless.. s-suicidal.. The words said in this episode really touched my heart and its a special episode for me. |
| The opening sequence change again with different voice narration on it, showing the general idea of these episode. Is that the witch? So, Cuff-dono learn some ABC, while Zain get left behind, working as a circus performer. What-? Ah, Bocchan younger brother, and Viola second brother, got a lot of talks this time. He sure had a charm as a cool boy, in the eyes of those innocent maid. However, in the palm of Viola, the Queen, those poor boy actually holding up some unexpected trauma. Number two, always be the nightmare to him xd. First time, Viola met with Cuff. They had some 'good' moment there, if you know what i mean. Too bad, the 3d design kinda putting me off. Next! The second part finally take an interesting moments. Another white snow memories for Bocchan and Alice. Bocchan was a real delinquent back there. However, with all of her patience, Alice finally brought back the same Bocchan he found out in the childhood ages. Sweet little end for them, far before everything started. White snow on the background, black clothes in the middle, a very satisfying part. Hope its stay longer. But, lets see what else they got next.... |

| Too good to be true. This episode was so beautiful. So dark at the backstrory, but close it with the warmest ending. |
 |
| @Momonga-sama18 and I thank you for reading it, don't quote the whole thing though. I'm a seasonal watcher (if you never glanced at my profile well enough). |
|
| My heart... seeing Bocchan so sad and lonely and distressed was horrible. I'm so glad Alice came into his life and brought the sun with her! Confirmed: Alice's mother is dead and therefore I feel even more sure that she is the witch that cursed Bocchan. I can't imagine what he did to deserve that curse though since he was only a little boy. I got ridiculously excited when I heard Yuuma Uchida's voice - playing a comically unstable yet arrogant character like Walter is unusual for him but I like it! |
 |
| Beautiful episode. The best of the season. |
| I'm glad that this anime also can succesfully adapt heavier sides of the story. Bocchan was really broken, that was more than what I imagined. He was a nasty brat lol and Alice was so nice, she had a very hard time to be accepted as personal maid, there. Sometimes you really need another person to drag you out of the depressive swamp. |

| I like the new introduction. It's happier and I think that means some good things are on their way. Besides, it's interesting finally getting to see the second son. I didn't like him much, but it seems that he will be of importance in the following episodes. Apart from that, I loved that flashback to when Alice and Bocchan met for the first time after he had been cursed. She's always been a precious human being, and she found a torn apart Bocchan and proved him that he's worthy of love (just like all of us). That, in my opinion, is beautiful. |
