Well, that didn't take long for Elianna to realize tha she likes Christopher. One thing I will say about her character is that I really hope she grows more confidence in herself soon. Right now, it feels like her feelings can easily be shattered.

Still, I believe the character chemistry is appealing so far in this anime.

Dude, the drama, lmao.

Wasting no time with it, are we. Our heroine already getting blamed for something she havent done by some two faced whore. Naturally, it was all just a misunderstanding (and a conspiracy on top of that, i guess ?), good on Elianna tho, having someone keeping an eye on her.

Still, she needs to fix the "i live in a castle, spending my days doing nothing but reading books, living the most luxurious life possible, but cuz my fiance won't talk to me much, i'm so depressed" attitude.

All ends well, for now ...

Elianna is having an identity crisis wih Christopher for her being a phony fiancé, despite knowing that he has eyes for Irene instead enough to ignore about her, only to realize that her love came all too late to even be a viable candidate to the prince.

Eilanna as the Bibliophile Princess, everyone reckons that if there's anyone heading to the archives, it would be her, as demonstrated by Alexei. But oh man, Irene's "falling down from the stairs" drama is so pretentious enough that Christopher doesn't buy her words, and the evidence is right in front of her eyes that he initially was concerned for her, until the truth was shown. Even the royal court magician Alan played the fiddle to add fuel to the fire, with the Palcas father and daughter brought to trial.

With Prince Christopher's account, the trial of mounting evidence, plus the secret pawn that was Alan, made everything clear that it was an assassination attempt to get rid of Elianna with everyone already made aware to stop her from getting into trouble. Plus, her talent is displayed with Christopher's account with everyone on the ground, and she is officially indicted as the Royal Princess on Earl Casull's account that he is the last of those who don't believe that Elianna could lead a kingdom together with Christopher.

Their official engagement has been solidified with this ordeal, and what a display. Christopher's such a gentleman.

This anime makes want to watch while lying down on the couch dramatically.

Well if this keeps up, we have then, mystery in imperial China-like country and one in early modern Germany(?)-like country. Which is great.

It ain't a shoujo anime without misunderstanding but well that got resolved fast. Though Irene's falling from the stairs plan was so dumb.

Irene is such a treacherous bitch, her father is as bad

Everything was a series of misunderstandings for our hime-sama Elianna, she is more talented and liked than she thought and will be Queen

freaking trash people who make false accusations, they got what they deserved lol

damn the prince has been giving mc some "achievements", now she can't leave even if she wants to haha

tbh it makes sense to keep someone vigilant/guarding the future queen (?), even inside the palace, to make sure neither she does anything bad, nor someone else hurts her, and that pays off like it did in this episode, catching liars who want to take her place

I like his look when he's damn serious. Also, the animation where the eyes move when he's reading.

Oh my, did they meet much earlier before the engagement? She doesn't seem to remember it though. This is keeping me interested.

Think the prince might end up being my favorite character though he does need to work on communication. Would have lost my shit if no one noticed her carrying all those books. Also, this girl still can't shut up and let me see what's going on for myself. *sigh*

Did you misunderstand the dialogue or something? Those were legitimately her achievements and not something Christopher made up or arranged to have her take credit for.

I don't recall when they became engaged but they've known each other for a fair amount of time, though I think that in the light novel, it's only later that she recalls that the boy shown in the library with her was Christopher.

I like it because the Prince makes people agree for Elianna to be the next and standing as his queen by getting them acknowledge Eli's greatness by themselves :D

I think Irene is really silly and stupid, how come after her lies were exposed she still has the audacity to say that Eli doesn't deserve to be the next queen just because she's a bibliophile xD she's just embarrassing herself more.

tbh i thought that at least some of them were fake (i mean she literally eeehhh every single time), but then again, most of them have to do with books, so i'm not surprised they were real lol

Ah, yeah, I can see why you'd think that. That was more a matter of her not realizing that her actions had made such waves rather than her not hearing of them before though. It's only been hinted at thus far so I'll put this in a spoiler (though it's not that big a spoiler really) but

wasn’t expecting irene’s involvement in the plot to be resolved so fast, but at least this gives some more credibility to christopher and elianna’s relationship (i like how confident christopher is in elianna’s abilities, it’s quite cute).

calling tampering with a ladder rung and putting bugs in food an “assassination attempt” feels like a bit of a stretch though lol

So cute. Already love this couple. Surprising that the MC has already found out she likes the male lead. I thought she'd be obilivious the majority of the anime until towards the end.

I'm really glad they've got rid of that b*tch already. I originally thought she'd be the main villain and pester the mc the whole anime but nope, just a one off villain.

I'm really looking forward to see this childhood that the male lead loves so much.

What a sweet twist, it wasn't even about stopping the forgery but to get Elianna's full approval with the added bonus of proving her worth to herself and the bonubonus of Elianna finally realizing her true feelings for the prince.

Lmao fuck Irene all my homies hate Irene. Glad that lying pos is going to pay for her accusations. The throwing yourself off the stairs trick only works if the person you’re accusing isn’t carrying an entire load of books lmao.

Extremely satisfying 23 minutes of seeing Irene’s schemes fall apart and eli validated. Shouldn’t have anymore nobles in her way now. Really good episode can’t wait for next week

Funny to read all the praise when I hated it so much. Guess the show wasn't subtle about what it would be, but the fake bullying cliche and Elianna just standing there through accusation, praise of numerous off screen exploits, and everything else drove me crazy.

All of those overthinking of Elianna's... when those instances are really intended to protect her. Such beauty and innocence... those who plan to do nasty things with such character should be punished! Must protecc Elianna at all cost!

not sure what you meant by that but no. The prince does not control all of Eliannas achievements but thats her own doing.

He is just protecting Elianna in some cases as what a fiance should do.


For me he has some control freak tendancies and i also don't think she is controlled however it seems that the main wants her in his garden
It would have been cooler to be more clear of his purpose than to make a surprise event in front of a large crowd using his power and influence
I personally find that part disgusting and not romantic at all (but it's just my view)
Why not explaining the situation earlier? Would she be unable to keep her tongue? Would she be scared? She has so many streghts and abilities keeping her in the dark seems so unfair. All the drama could have been resolved so easily but it was prolonged too much.

In an investigation. There are some things you can not simply reveal even with the assumed victim as that may cause some problems.

for example, Elianna might become stress that someone is trying to kill her without her knowing what it could be. She might even cancel the marriage arrangement just because of her fear.

Of course, the crown prince knows that and would rather pursue the attackers than create unnecessary chaos. For example if they told Elianna this, she might start talking about this unto her family and might compromise the investigation or the kingdom might suddenly fell into chaos if the news spread that someone is trying to assasinate a royal member.

sometimes, Its better to keep it confidencial until you have taken the proof or have the culprits on hand.

Alright but the prince is till forcing her he has a lot of insecurities and i also think elliana would have been a bigger help to the investigation would have been more impartial and understood better the scheme of the prince becoming more at ease knowing it all forgiving him easier etc
The prince underestimate elliana a lot i think and what he does for her would hurt a lot of girl even more

This was so cute bro. Eliana is so precious. Must protecc.

The part where everyone looked at Eliana holding all those books, being accused of pushing that red girl down the stairs got me good.

It was very satisfying to see everyone acknowledge Eliana's achievements and praise her and deem her worthy of being the queen.

Glad all the misunderstanings were cleared. Eliana must be feeling a little dumb thinking so negatively lol. Looking forward to seeing her becoming more confident and also to to romance between Christopher and her, for now Christopher seems to be very much in love with her and that too since childhood it seems. Both parties are in love now all we wait for is some romantic developments. I want to see what kind of face Eliana makes when Christopher holds her hand or something lmao.

Excellent episode overall. Looking forward to next one.
