Sabine seems like the type of princess you'd expect straight out of this type of show. 

That general store did have some cute stuff so no wonder it caught her interest. I love how Mitsuha immediately took action and showed no mercy against those kidnappers that took Sabine. There's still a lot of her personality gags that I found amusing as usual. Seems she even made a great impression in front of the king himself.

When Mitsuha said “no women”, how did the king interpret that as her saying that she won’t be bought out? Did she mean it like she wasn’t for sale?

A new little sister figure for Mitsuha and this time it’s the king’s daughter. She’s a cute chuuni.

Now that she got the royal family on her side she should have no issues with people trying to mess with the general shop. Adler was an idiot trying to mess with the shop honestly lol.

Uh oh, looks like trouble is brewing next week tho.

Loved the precure references

I'm pretty sure that Mitsuha meant it somewhat jokingly "we don't do human trafficking" given recent events, and didn't really mean anything by it, but the King read between the lines and instead interpreted it as Mitsuha saying that she wasn't under the King's authority. And given the guards witnessed what she said and how easily she took the kidnappers down, he's being wary of her and not challenging it. (And because she seems friendly with Sabine... for now.)

Nice one Mitsuha, saving the princess by showing those kidnappers no mercy, stunning one guy and threatening the others with a gun.

Now Sabine is really attached to her. Also she never does miss a business opportunity by selling those reading glasses to the king and the chancellor. Which in turn has helped her get more customers.

One thing I learnt this anime is to never disturb Sabine's dee vee dee time. Also apparently they were watching PreCure. I legit am about to watch the latest episode of PreCure now lol.

That Adler dude really fucked around and he definitely found out. Unlucky for him, Mitsuha again had him on her finger.

We about to have more trouble next episode!

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.

Mitsuha has gained a royal princess sidekick. Looks like she's dubbing anime to keep her happy! What a wild thing to do. Even wilder that a merchant would try to publicly attempt to purchase the princess. He got off easy!

Mitsuha has regular visitors: from the commonfolk to a shiny blonde gil visiting her general store. being surprising that there's no guards around her given her royal aura. And this getting targeted by lowlifes and having Mitsuha to save her, it's almost a joke that allowed her to wander free and alone. It's awkward, but Mitsuha visiting the Royal Castle is only a matter of time. Whether she's the Messenger of Lightning of the general store worker, saving Princess Sabine who's sneaked out of the castle to help them clear out their human trafficking problem, it's a tit-for-tat problem for Mitsuha taking care of not just Sabine, but the 2nd prince Rouven as well. Their father having a serious eyesight issue, and all it took was some reading glasses to convince them of her potential, but it's not just a simple open-and-close case where the chancellor Sahr is summoned to investigate of her antics.

The head of the Adler Trading Company Nelson, already showing off his superiority against Mitsuha, it's not like she's unprepared for moments like these. Sabine always coming over for dee vee dee entertainment after Mitsuha made a blunder and showing her the exquisite DVD technology, along with PreCure into it since she doesn't understand Japanese. Nelson comes back the next day, and being greeted with the chancellor with Mitsuha relaying Nelson's request to Sahr, Nelson's karma got served to him in the most justice-ful way. Checkmate to this corrupt organization being involved in the human trafficking ring.

Sabine really is invested into the dee vee dee so much that merchants find it hard to do business lols. But still, baby steps, and Mitsuha is growing in this win-win trade.

Even Sabine knows that Mitsuha's voice acting is a little bit off, I did find the voice acting on this anime a lil' bit bland though but the story carried the whole anime, this anime just feels so satisfying to watch.

And Colette's "Wow" is very cute, wish she appear again in the future.

This was an amusing episode with Mitsuha's cringy lines, Sabine being a handful and Adler getting caught in her trap. What I can't believe is how Mitsuha being so smart she forgot about the front sign.

I really like the royal family so far, it seems like they’ll be really helpful in the future and they’re funny lol. Though I’m really curious about the first prince, a potential love interest maybe? (I’m a sucker for any hint at a romantic plot even though it’s probably never going to happen. I’ve been watching too much romance anime lately lol) I haven’t read the manga so I don’t even know if we’ll ever get to see him.

My family operates a commercial building, and we've had tenants forget the sign before. There's just so much to do when you're setting up a new business and moving in that it's easy to forget something like this. There is no comprehensive step-by-step guide on the Internet that you can follow, so everyone is winging it. Often for the first time. We try to drop by and check up on them, and remind them of little things we notice like a missing front sign.

At the series' current pacing, I suspect the massive gunplay arc will be what they close out the season with.

The anime touches on this briefly, but they don't really dwell on it so it's easy to miss. Mitsuha is 18. But even by Japanese standards she looks young (short, flat-chested) . In the manga she was at the cliff trying to decide between college or work after her family died. The guys who pushed her off the cliff hit on her thinking she was a middle schooler. (BTW, if that loose end bugged you, they got arrested for her murder even though her body was never found.)

The people in this world, being more *ahem* European in bust size, frequently mistake her for being about 10-12. Beatrice (the Count's 13-yo daughter) thinks she's older than Mitsuha. Which leads to lots of attempts by nobles to hook her up with pre-teen and early teen boys. Given that this is published in 21 century Earth, that makes a romantic relationship with any of them problematic. I could see it working if Mitsuha's true age had been in her early teens. That would make it the standard teen-on-teen or tween-on-tween romance.  But the author making her an adult is an impediment in this setting.

That was a pretty entertaining episode especially with meeting the cute princess and the reaction with the king and chancellor trying on reading glasses. Sabine discovering the DVD player was funny and Mitsuha dubbing was great.

I find it a bit fascinating on how people from the past would react to modern technology and this series shows some of that but I have concerns that Mitsuha could be accused of being a witch. Regardless, the cliffhanger implies some trouble with a girl and she reminds me of the 3 girls that visited in a previous episode.

Fair enough, sometimes we're so focused on the big picture that the small things can slip by.

I feel like Mitsuha is the kind of airhead genius that is smart and plans ahead, yet overlooks the small details and can be quite careless. Like the front sign or selling fish away from the ocean.

the shampoo sales are going great, thanks to the other 3 girls who have told her friends

a pretty girl came to visit, and seeing the title of the episode, maybe she is a princess
the shop doesn't have a sign? wtf Mitsuha? lmfao
the girl bought a ton of items, paying upfront with gold coins without even thinking about it, totally a rich girl

outside the shop is a shady guy, stalking the girl... Mitsuha is ready, after last episode, she got her bag prepared just in case
lol the 4 guys acting tough, but Mitsuha scared them the fuck out with her electric gun thing, and those eyes omfg
after some "cringe worthy past" scene, the guards appeared and she got escorted to the palace

meeting the king, no formalities needed... lol she actually won that "fight"
she told her story, a lot different from what the guards told him (they were watching since the start)
the princess, Sabine, calling Mitsuha with sama... oh no lol
she was about to get a lecture for escaping the guards, but thanks to her, they got some bad guys, so it's a win
ofc she went out after listening to the maids talking about the store, why else would she go there? the king can't say no to the cute daughter, the usual haha

Mitsuha already trying to go for business, but the king already has glasses, but those are no match for modern ones ofc, with that none of the old guys will have troubles reading anymore ... also damn she was prepared, who carries all those glasses
her shopping can get anything, with the exception being... woman LOL that sentence alone made her a target to investigation

Collett and her isekai nonbiri nouka collab lols

some ugly noble(?) came to visit, the president of the Adler trading company, and he wants the store ... he will have to come back next day tho, Mitsuha needs her partner

princess is back, she visits all the time ... and look how cute she is :D at least she changed her Mitsuha-sama to nee-sama
she discovered Mitsuha's DVD lmao how careless ... ow she get's to see it all she wants
the letter was for the chancelor, good thing she knows him then
this dvd, another precure reference like every anime we know lol Mitsuha had to dub the voice so Sabine could understand

the ugly guy is back and he wanted to take the 2 girls to his house as well LOL with the chancelor coming, the guy not only lost his plan, but he also had to make sure no one else in town did anything to Mitsuha, rip hahaha
as if things weren't bad enough, he lost his company rights to go to the palace, his fault for not remembering the princess's face lol

wth that, the princess was dragged out of there , she wasn't happy to leave nee-sama

the king is very thanful to Mitsuha for helping him get rid of that bad company... but he is more and more interested in knowing more about her

continuing with the dee vee dee session... if someone comes, they shall meet the menacing look of a annoyed princess :D
that being said, a lot of people came for glasses, thanks to the important chancelor
well.. if costumers are happy, Mitsuha is happy as well

next costumer already here... but it seems like something is wrong, what could it be?
favorite "new girls" from summer <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks (rip all the other choices)

Mitsuha met the royal family and even managed to get pretty close with them too! And it looks like some pretty shady stuff is happening around the city. I feel like there really hasn't been too much of a story at all, but it looks like Mitsuha is going to somehow get involved with this!

Sabine so kawaii and a good actress (lol). Mitsuha finally come into contact with the royal family after rescue the princess.

Adler has the badluck of trying to steal Mitsuha's shop + try to blackmail the girls. Chancellor Sahr is really intimidating to people that he does not like. In the manga his position is translated as "prime minister" - so I assume he's the second most powerful man in the country, and only the king ranks above him?
