Geez, Marie just can't catch a break. Kyros wants to have the best life she can but always drama brewing up out nowhere.

Not going to lie, the maids in this episode were highly entertaining. Never underestimate Mio. Beneath that maid look is a badass.

Marie you are an angel and deserve all of this happiness. FUCK those lame ass maids for projecting their insecurities onto you and putting you down.

What’s crazy is, Hannah and Ilza could’ve been living the sweet life working for the nicest dude in the kingdom having every single need taken care of, but they wanted more. It’s never enough for those people and for Kyros, who witnessed his step mother commit suicide over that same sort of greed, that had to have struck a chord. They got off easy by just being kicked out, the nasty remarks, making sure Marie got the stuff from her old house, etc., just all around bitches.

S/O Mio for lowkey being the best character in the story. She’s probably the only person who fully understands how Marie feels coming from an awful circumstance to living a fairy tale. It’s a lot to take in and that fear of it all being taken away from you has to be immense. Glad she told Kyros how Marie must be feeling and I like how she’s trying to help Marie become more confident too! She’s like a big sister to both of them really.

Omg the garden scene was sooo cute. The way Kyros looks in Marie’s eyes and grabs her face as he tells her everything he loves about her is sooo cute. You can see Marie starting to let herself believe in the fairy tale and embracing it now too!

The prince is gonna be a fun new character isn’t he! I wonder if it’s gonna be a love triangle or he’ll just be the teasing sort of friend? 🤔 can’t wait for next episode

I'm not exaggerating when I said that Kyros might use that pillow to practice his sex skill before the wedding night with Marie.

It becomes a pattern that Kyros is away from home a lot, but maybe it's a good thing because it let Marie overcome her own obstables with her own strength without the help of her fiance.

Hannah and Ilza were lowkey funny for a pair of bitches, but they had it coming. Especially the part when Kyros violated them verbally was gold. Bye, bye.

I already like Luiphon's vibe, even tho the playful charm seems to be a front to mask how unpleasant he can be.

It turns out the two maids were even bigger pieces of crap and poor Mio, she was totally right about that new character and his antics.

The maids took less time than I expected to just drop the act. Both, in front of Mio and Kyros in the same episode.

Hmmm...Luiphon looks pretty mischievous....That could be good (stir up some jealousy with Kyros cuz he needs to step up some charm in front of Marie instead of just secretly hugging a "body pillow of her" all night long)

Or bad (Like for instance: he goes too far and tries to convince Marie she's not for him and potentially put her self-esteem down even more- if you know what I mean) --doesn't help that the two maids he recommended were total b*****s


Hopefully it's the former and not the latter....can't wait to see.

I knew the moment Mio said she wanted to be responsible for Marie that she was going to string up these two dimwits like chandeliers. It is double the satisfaction to see Kyros take part in the stringing.

When the prince greenlighted Mio to manage the staff I was like "hell yeah baby, bring down to doom those bitches!!!" Good to see Marie found something to keep her mind busy, can see she is starting to see the good in the bad. And yeah, I see some rivalry to Kyros, seems next episode is gonna be fun.

It's a bit disappointing that the snobbish maids were played straight as noble caricatures, but still hilariously satisfying to see Mio shoulder-throw the wretches when they gave her lip after their nasty attempt at bullying with the 'care package'. Thou shalt not mess with the ninja maid!

Nice to see Marie come out of her shell just a little bit and start accepting that she can have things she enjoys and that there are at least some people that will welcome it.

Looking forward to the previewed fight next week, I have the feeling that the prince is going to be an... interesting character.

Animation quality and comedic timing+execution went WAY up this episode. I was enjoying this show before, but this episode was absolutely top-notch.

I also love that Kyros both says and shows WHY he's in love with Marie. So many similar shows establish THAT the guy is mega-devoted and mega-in-love with the female lead, but never show or answer WHY he is in love with her. It tickles my heart how this show absolutely flouts that trend, with multiple scenes showing Marie and Kyros bonding and enjoying each other's company, and with Kyros being NOT AT ALL shy about gushing about what he adores about her.

Excellent writing and cast of characters. Really enjoying this one so far, especially after this latest episode!

Well, I'm surprised that there wasn't anything more to those maids (Maid in a Bitches? 🤔). I guess now that we have a vague glimpse of what that prince is like, he could've sent them as a very funny prank.

I hope we don't get an entire season of Marie thinking she's worthless. At least she's realising she does enjoy things.

I was kinda hoping the maids were part of a ploy by Kyros or Mio to figure out Marie or try to get her to stand up for herself or something, but oh well.
It looks like Prince Whatshisface is gonna challenge Kyros to a duel or something over Marie, just to stir the pot.
I didnt think we'd see a similar type of simp as Jinshi for a while, but Kyros already has him beat.

Mio. Best maid of the season. Period!

What I said earlier might or might not have been serious. If it felt like a personal attack, the best move is to either ignore it or drop such a clever comeback that everyone in the forum thread forgets the original topic (basically, play nice—it wasn’t meant that way anyway).

And if you're an AI bot or crawler, welcome. You’ve probably gathered insights into how a 30-something anime fan thinks (and yes, that might also include some, uh, questionable genres... You get the idea).

Oh, scenes of our dear lover boy swooning over his fiancée Mary! Swinging on his bed, hugging a pillow with “Mary is life” written on it. Such a vibe!

Honestly, I really liked Miu. She’s my favorite character in the series (after Liu Liu, of course), and her adoptive mother is clearly grooming her to follow in her footsteps!

The kiss scene would’ve been perfect if Miu hadn’t spoken! Ughhh! Miu, please, just be quiet 😂

The dismissal of the maids, the farming scenes, attending the festival, etc.—I won’t comment!

See you in next week’s episode!

Oh. Turns out the two maids are indeed a bitch. And yeah, the silver-haired prince had wanted to test Marie from the beginning, whether she was worthy of being Kyros' fiancée or not. To be honest, this kind of trope is kind of annoying to me.

It's basically like "I'm your best friend so let me test the worth and goodness of your potential partner. It's all for your own good." What. I don't think he has the right to test Marie unless Kyros asks him to. Although it was rather impossible for Kyros to ask for such a thing.

Glad Mio was immediately aware of the situation, especially Marie's condition. She's really the one who has been on Marie's side the most up to this point.

Anyway. A kiss almost happened, hehe :3

Loved the episode. Really glad Ilza and Hanna finally got PRECISELY what they deserved, two brutal arm-drag slam takedowns to the ground, each delivered by Mio, followed by Kyros returning em back to Luiphon as returned goods of dead meat. This right here is the one reason I gave the episode a perfect 5/5.

Love this episode, and Mio is goated as always. Marie realizing what she enjoys doesn't have to conform to anyone else's standards, just hers. I'm a sucker for these kinds of stories, Kyros absolutely adores her, and I'm all in.

The main couple is meh. I find Marie good for her knowledge, but I find it hard to like her as a female romance lead.

Mio continues to show why she is more interesting than the OTP.

Kyros, seriously? Have a better body pillow of Marie for yourself, as much as Mio coming around suddenly with compliments for him taking her in after her master Liu Liu. But let's be honest, Kyros loves Marie to a fault and on his own volition, as much as the future duchess herself is showered more of Toppo's food, and is worried about both Iiza and Hannah. However, Tomas transporting Marie's stuff to her, though with their own belligerent service that finally hit the breaking point for Mio to retaliate back at them, both Iiza and Hannah certainly got their karma's worth incoming from the capable head maid. And Marie seeing the positive that she can work with Johan on the fields, position doesn't matter when family is first and foremost. Still, the rumour of House Shaderan bearing Marie as a laughingstock, all this to Kyros, is just balderdash for the woman that he genuinely loves. A classic fairy tale story that the TPO rule definitely doesn't take into regard for the both of them.

With Kyros out to business for 10 days, Marie getting an invitation from the 3rd Prince of Count Luiphon Granado, it's a post-haste invitation from the captain of the Royal Knights for that matter too for apologetics and fun. But Mio being wary of Prince Luiphon to assert her worst fears to Marie, she's just being too worried to the point of threat, and the man in question playing around with Marie, he's a sweet guy and a showoff alright.

Who exactly is Luiphon like, as Kyros's friend?
