Well, that dragon isn't the only friend getting along with Yumiella.

It's been building up to this point but about time she realizes about her feelings towards Patrick, that's beyond just friendship. We do see that Yumiella also has a strategic mind on who she can trust as well. Clever girl imo, with underrated intelligence in this show.

The romance is finally starting.

Yumiella, who refused the recruitment offer from the intelligence officer of the Varschein Kingdom, began to wonder during their conversation if she harbored special feelings for Patrick. She was curious about Patrick's secret actions, but he refused to disclose them to her no matter what. Later, the long awaited exam finally begins.

Yumiella and Patrick did well in the entire exam, but Elenora struggled during the makeup test. Fortunately, Yumiella helped her study and she passed. Then, we had Edwin apologizing to her... Sure, all's forgiven. But something I really wonder about is Yumiella and Patrick's relationship; lol.

We're almost at the end, but can they finish everything in just three episodes?

Yumeila still has a lot to learn about her own emotions mainly love.
I feel sorry for Patrick and everything he has to go trough to get his feelings across hopefully he will succeed in doing so soon.
It also seems that the prince and his followers are finally starting to get some sense the question is for how long tho.
And it also seems their way of handling Alicia isn't very good for her the question is wether they will understand that or not.

Yumiella is still dumb enough to not know that Patrick is in love with him & also she has feelings towards him and also Alicia has been kidnapped.

I think Alicia is just trying to solo dungeon by herself. After all, her level is so low it's not even a joke anymore, especially when there's a threat from both demon lord and neighbor kingdom.

I've no comment on the relationship between Patrick and Yumiella.

My man Patrick's been diligently trying to level up, you can do it. Yumiella's beyond dense, she realised her feelings and was like nah that can't be right. Heck she even thought Patrick got an abusive girlfriend lmao. Patrick has a tough time ahead of him but he's a great guy, he even changed the prince. He seemed like a different guy entirely. What happened to pink hair girl though? Btw I found the info that demon lord will only attack this kingdom interesting, something's up.

“That made me realise how I feel about Patrick” let’s goooo finally the dense cutie is being smart… or maybe not 💀 Yumiella still not quite understanding Patrick’s feelings, but at least she realises how important he is to her.

Feel bad for Patrick. Doing all this to level up and be someone “worthy of her” only for Yumiella to interpret his actions as him hiding a gf 😩. Obviously will never reach lv 99, but respect to him for trying to better himself.

Elenora is an idiot for everything but Edwin, lmao. The fact she turns into a damn genius when you connect academic facts to the prince had my dying. Remembering Silas? Too hard. Remembering Edwin’s grandfather’s grandfather? Easy.

Well well well, an apology from Edwin for all his shitty behaviour since the entrance ceremony was a welcome sight. He and his cronies have been nothing but rude to Yumiella simply because she’s strong and it’s about time they squashed it. At least until Alicia goes missing and William doubts Yumiella is telling the truth 💀 these guys are so unserious.

I feel like Alicia might be under a mind control spell and that’s why she went off to the dungeon alone? Her eyes were blank in that last shot and it doesn’t really make sense to go off to a dark dungeon solo like that..

Either way, next ep should be fun.

"There's one thing l'd like to know, purely out of curiosity."
"What's that?"
"Your reason for staying in this kingdom."
THE WAY MY HEART MELTED WHEN HER FIRST THOUGHT WAS OF PATRICK (*≧∀≦*)
Now she's second guessing her feelings since he's the only one who really talks to her but
COME ON YUMIELLA, THIS IS PROGRESS ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶ | really hope she doesn't settle for friends!!!

Yumiella: “want to go ride Ryu with me?”
Patrick: (on the inside: 😰 *has flashbacks from her rather interesting flight last time*)
On the outside: “pass” (*^^*)

I love that she wants to spend more time with him and this time it’s HIM not getting the message, he wants to get stronger so she’ll notice him but doesn’t know that she already has 🥰. Watching him be so emphatic that he doesn’t have a girlfriend so she knows he’s available- they’re both so cute 😂

Yumiella is starting to get respecting/appreciated (and less feared) by people a lot now, but still funny when she has the misunderstandings with Patrick (who's growing on me now that he's starting going to dungeons to try and win over Yumiella).

Interested to see how far the story gets, and hope it gets a second season if it finishes without them defeating the Demon Lord! (Imagining it might not get that far)

Also nice to see that she is starting to reciprocate, though of course it's being done gradually.

The Linus Tech Tips spy was kinda random but he did have some interesting things to say, like the fact other kingdoms are aware of Yumiella and that the demon lord is supposed to only attack the kingdom Yumiella is in, that’s intriguing for sure but for now that’s all we got as Yumiella helped the spy escape, she might be betraying the kingdom with that but what can you do lol. And behind the scenes Patrick has been leveling up because of Yumiella’s comment about only being into people that are stronger than her, and I respect that he’s doing it despite knowing he can’t reach level 99. And in regards to this we had quite the funny scene where Yumiella thought Patrick had an abusive girlfriend lol, rip Patrick.

And later we had a scene where we got to see Edwin apologize to Yumiella at last since he was the only one not to so far, and it was all thanks to Patrick, if no one else got Yumiella’s back I know Patrick does lol. It was also cute how Yumiella wanted to know what Patrick said about her, really enjoying how she’s progressively thinking more and more about him and being unsure of her feelings. And speaking of Edwin, I also enjoyed that bit where Eleanora only knew history that was related to Edwin when they were studying, it’s all Edwin with this girl lol. And lastly we got teased on Alicia being missing, and based on those eyes at the end there’s definitely more going on than meets the eye.

He must become level 99... otherwise she will destroy him in passionate moment. She almost broke his arm while the dragon was hatching!!!

LMAO this girl Yumiella is SUCH a dense airhead like she really views everything as platonic😭

So this girl Alicia is controlled by most likely the enemy kingdom or something bc it seems like she’s nowhere near the school or anywhere in the kingdom, my guess is she’ll be saved by Yumiella easily and Alicia will stop being afraid of our dark princess😭

Alicia looks like she is possessed and went off somewhere. Maybe she's heading towards the dungeon Yumiella mentioned to her, but her sudden disappearance has caused quite an uproar amongst her three knights who are the main reason why she ain't even leveling up in the first place.

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.

there is no development for patrick and yumiella... Yumiella is like a straight girl and doesn't know how to interact with Patrick and this makes it easy for Patrick to misunderstand Yumiella's speech at the same time he tries to be what Yumiella wants😂

I wonder what level Patrick is right now. I'm beginning to think that actually reaching lvl99 is quite impossible for others, and the reasons why Yumiella was able to reach lvl99 other than being extra hardworking is that she was born as the 'hidden last boss' and also since she is an isekaijin (they are usually people with great potentials, etc.). It's also nice that the prince managed to lessen his imbecility and reconciled with Yumiella.
Anyway, maybe Alicia was mind-controlled by a rival country like the one who tried to poach Yumiella

Why cant this show just be about Eleonora and Yumiella?

I dont want the side characters to apologize, I want to keep hating them!

This show lost all spice now. And the romance just has no actual chemistry either..

LOL

Yumi thinking Patrick looks like a "Ikemen" (beautiful hot sexy man)

LOL

.

Also... Eleanora... so she can only be good at memorization if it involves Edwin...

It's interesting that Yumi is actually trying to hang out more often with Patrick, but she keeps on getting detoured, LOL

But Yumi gets SUS at Patrick and think he's meeting with other girls... HAHAHA

Yumi's starting to get Jelly... soon... she's going to turn this into a certain Yandere school incident...

.

BTW, Chibi Yumi in Wedding Dress, so cute. I want to grab and squishy squishy her.

A spy from the Kingdom of Remlest, Linus, meets Yumiella for solicitation, but the kingdom does not get along with Patrick's family. And to make matters worse, the dragon that she acquired recently, Ryu has become a tool to spite war between kingdoms. And her noticing the kingdom's soldiers chasing after him, they both make an escape, though she must make calculated moves...like her road to romance, when it comes to Patrick. Eleonora coming to Yumiella for her help in her exams, she's just not fit for the job, but add the things about Edwin, and suddenly she gets the motivation to be serious for once, with perfection. I swear, she always interrupts the time between Yumiella and Patrick, when the former is always about to enquire about his likings, but at the very least, he is making the effort to be her companion. But Yumiella too...she also has her misunderstandings lols, but assuming that Patrick has a girlfriend, from the dungeon training injuries that he has. Will these two ever get along at all?

Yumiella, still on the love train about the affections of Edwin and Eleonora, she's at least glad that Patrick is kinda open. And Edwin finally having the balls to apologize to her for all the trouble he and the other people had given her, it's all part of society, and the other part, thanks to Patrick for clearing the perceptions about her. As compensation, letting Yumiella participate in the battle against the Demon Lord is a godsend, though his comments about her lights a brutal fire inside of her. The problem now, is to properly power Alicia up, and Yumiella's proposition to bring her to a dungeon, she's just not ready for it.

Alicia's disappearance, though sudden, has everyone scrambling to find her...and by the looks of it, she's deep into manipulation.

Another weak episode.

It's stories like this that give anime a bad reputation. Pure amateur stuff in the writing department from start to finish. Also, the writer for some reason thought the main character very likable. In reality she's barely tolerable. Her humor sucks, she's inconsiderate to an irritating degree, immature despite her advanced age, and her rotten cynicism the cherry on the cake.

To be forced to marry a prince is her fantasy. The protagonist is a typical Japanese woman, and a modern one at that. She follows the current hierarchy, the rules. She's not interested in power. She wants to have fun at school. She wants to hang out with her friends, fall in love and so on. This whole monster thing is a game to her. In many ways, she hasn't realised her potential yet. Not everybody wants power and fame and stuff like that. For some, it's just as stressful as the weight of responsibility.

Patrick's thoughts during dungeon leveling may sound like he is only doing it because Yumiella said she needs someone stronger than her.
But in LN he has a bit more space to expand on that idea. He fully understands that that line was not serious, but just a way to ward off unwanted suitors. But at the same time he still wants to level up: to not be a burden, to not be a vulnerability that can be taken hostage, and to be able to join her crazy antics.
Pretty cool guy.
