Oh. Now we'll have to deal with a magician.
But I'm guessing this guy'll be of more importance, seeing his rather spectacular (in comparison to the rest) scene in the OP.
And Victorique (Yes, I insist on calling her Victorique.) got pretty riled up.
And stop breaking Knox's most elemental rules, it's making me sad! 。・゚・(ノД`)・゚・。

Tl;dr dat turban.

Feels like I'll have to watch the episodes more closely (Because of the Nun).
Now when they arrived into the big village, it feels like things will get very interesting.

- Interesting story behind Victorique's mother.. (even if not much was said).
- Victorique was cute in the hat/turban.
- Victorique had a cute sleeping-dress <'3

We now know of Victorique's past and her mother. Poor thing she was tortured and imprisoned just for being an illegitimate daughter. Kuzuya was in the wrong anyway because you really shouldn't tease a really shy girl that way.

Half sleep talking is the best lol. I wonder if all of this means we're gonna see Victorique's mother soon and if she is cleared wouldn't that lead to her being able to travel outside more?

I didn't expect Avril to still be around; I guess I should've since she's in the OP. And the red-haired magician makes his appearance. I've been looking forward to his character, so I hope he doesn't disappoint.

Lots of cute Victorique moments in here! She's so stubborn; I love it. And I hate to admit it, but I'm just as bad as her is and act the same way when I'm upset with someone... ^_^;;

Since they're talking about Victorique's mother now + introducing that magician, I wonder if we're going to get a glimpse at our "main mystery"?

Also, why in the blazes didn't Kujo go ask that guy to give him back his textbooks? He just kind of gave up like they were really gone for good. o.O

Great scene at the end there with everyone taking a step back, Victorique holding her ground, and Kujo stepping in front to protect her. I enjoy cliches too much.

I think that nun might be Victorique's mother.
The way she looked at Victorique seems to suggest that she knows her, and she was hiding something.
She was lying in the train it took her to long to answer last part and her behavior at the market was also strange.
I don't think she stole that plate tho, why would she steal it while she is selling it?

There was also something suspicious about that magician why would he change books into a hat?
And why did Kujo accept it without thinking?
I mean those text books should have been importuned to him since it's his learning material.
And he didn't complain about it he just walked to his friend and asked if he could copy it.

Kujo deserves punishment because he made Victorique cry and even laughed at her.
Later on he was completely misunderstanding her when she wanted to leave the academy to go to that village and prove her mothers incense.
He did follow her all the way tho.

Victorique was cute ones again this episode especially that sleep talk part was nice.
Grevil's reaction when he saw her was awesome and gave me a good laugh when he thought Victorique was Cordilia.
We also learned a bit about Victorique's mother and i wonder if they will be able to clear her name.

Heh, I for one loved the episode. Loved especially the small laughs which centered around Victorique. Now that we even find out she is a Gray Wolf, things will get tricky; at ;least it seems that way after the 'welcoming party' she is getting at her exiled mother's home. I'm curious if it will be her home from now on as well...

^Also, nice theory you got there about Victorique's mother and now that I think about it, it may be true and if it would be true, Victorique might have already recognized her after looking at her reactions towards the nun.

Very interesting with the whole village and past story of her mother and all.

Also, I loved when Victorique was sleep talking, and when she was attempting to pick up the chair to throw at Kujo.

Why the heck did the nun steal her own plate? It made me think that she was trying to frame the magician by releasing those birds and making it look like a magic trick. Of course, there's no way Grevil could arrest the nun since its her plate in the first place.

I can't imagine how those gray wolves treated Victorique!! They're the worst, not only did they cage her for years but also separated from her mother! I don't know how she became sophisticated and cute after all those terrible things though. xDD

PS: I can't wait to know about Victorique's past and her mother.

As usual, +2 for Victorica awesomeness, -1 for Kujo being a dimwit and plain jerk
Your reaction towards a girl who is rubbing her forehead because she just tripped on your leg and landed on her face/forehead was to... FLICK HER FOREHEAD? And then when she cries, you tell her you WON'T SEE HER AGAIN and run off?

And the next time he sees her, he ruffles through all her stuff and misinterprets pouting for a cavity...

Kujo's IQ must be in the single digit range, if not a negative number.
Can they not make Kujo semi-likeable? He's dragging this show down. The pacing is already suspect.

Kujo says, "I'm not a dog." Funny, because I think a dog is probably more intelligent.

I want to watch this show for the plot and characters, but I find I'm only looking forward to the Victorica moments, which were plenty this episode.
Manga readers, please enlighten me if it gets better.

I have this nagging feeling that the nun might be Cordelia (Victorique's mother, however you spell her name). After all, Victorique refuses to look at her in the carriage the night after she revealed her story.

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

basically, none of the manga material is covered here
all are from the light novels

this show's main factor for being likeable is it's characters and it's doing it very well, as for the plot, you already have your "plot" ^^
and i don't see why Kujo is not likeable, his reactions are natural and funny st some points and besides, Victorica will not shine if it wasn't for him
this is one of the greatest pair i've seen since Senjougahara and Araragi.

Kujou seriously drags this show down, and is quite possibly a contender to the worst male leads this season. I lol'd when he ran away from Victorique like a 12 year old girl.

Among Kujou and boring mysteries, Victorique is the only thing which makes this show watching so far..

Very nice we get to learn more about Victorique's backstory and the Grey Wolves.
That magician was awesome, I hope he plays a big part in the story.

The nun (smelling of liquor?) stealing her own plate was fishy. Why would a thief make a public display of his theft?
It's clearly a disguise, but I doubt it's Victorique's mum, unless she wears colored eyelenses.

If a girl falls flat on her face in front of you and tells you it hurts, comforting her would be the natural reaction. Not flicking her forehead and telling her it's her own fault.
Kujo may be a nice guy overall, but his density is making me crinch.

Aw god, if this show hadn't Kujo in it, then it would have been 10x better than it is now.. Just how annoying and stupid can he get? Calling Victorique's name every 10 second is getting on my nerves.. The situation when she was running away with her luggage and him showing up and thinking that she's going to the dentist? Do you really have something in your head or not?

Complaints aside, mystery part is still quite interesting.
And yeah, Victorique is still cute xD

You do have quite a valid point in that Kujo's stupidity does lead to what I would call "Victorica moments." He's essentially a foil for Victorica. But still, his stupidity is criminal.
When she takes out the chain locket and shows it to Kujo, he asks, "Is that you?"
Because we all keep lockets of ourselves close to us... He must leap to the dumbest conclusions...

But then again, I am basing my observations on the anime, which may or may not be a good retelling of the original manga or light novels.

even though Madoka Magica is mind blowing and turning out to be the best this season,
GOSICK is an instant favorite for me, i fell in love with this show ^^

(and i don't see why the lame IS gets the 2nd rank xD)
