Izana is not so bad and I must say the same about Raj.
Zen and Shirayuki are so cute hugging, we need a kiss soon!

Raj makes a terrible "villain" lol he's so tsundere cute. Shirayuki has easily become the most empowered female leading lady of all the summer anime, and I'm so glad that her and Zen are becoming a bit more open about their feelings for each other, with all the touching and hand holding and moe~ I REALLY can't wait for next week!

I thought there would be more to Izana's character abd I wasn't disappointed. Though he is manipulative and calculating, he has the vest intentions.

Raj being an awkward tsundere as usual lol

Zen and Shirayuki... Just fuck already lmao

Seriously what was the point of this episode? I watched it but it seemed like nothing happened.

Thats it I'm dropping this series. The last few episodes seemed like nothing was going on, the characters are boring and I'm just moving on past this series.

Interesting.
I like the determination of Shirayuki to make it in the castle where Zen is. Big bro Izana is such a cunning manipulative ruler. It's great that he is also fair above all.

Another really chill episode. Enjoyed it quite a bit.

It was fun seeing Raj and Shirayuki slowly getting along. Yesterday's enemy is today's friend.


Indeed, it's nice that Raj is able to come back into this and get some character development rather than simply having been the spark that started everything and left to rust.

I get why Zen can't feel any hostility towards his brother. I'm starting to like Izana as a character.
He's shown great leadership skills and he's concern for Zen's relationship is what any responsible king would feel.



Agreed, it's strange, I kind of want to dislike Izana, but he's just... so... cool. It's like he's got the most subtle form of charisma I've ever seen.

We got the introduction of Izana
and the re-appearance of Raji
. These two episodes gave Shirayuki the confidence to stay at the castle because let's face it, a foreigner girl with strange hair color who was to be a concubine of another prince staying at a neighboring prince's castle... If this had be real life, Izana would have banished her immediately, maybe even have her head. This whole issue with Shirayuki staying at the castle had to be addressed sooner or later and I think AnS did it just fine with the addition of some important new and old characters.

Such a cute episode. So much hugging and awkward cuteness between Zen and Shirayuki. Shirayuki is definitely one of the best heroines this season. Or period really. Got to love her.

I didn't realize that Mitsuhide's past was so early on. I thought it was later. Well, whatever. It's cool with me. I like him quite a bit.

Only a few more episodes until the long awaited part (most likely). But also only five more episodes left until 2016... I think I might go reread the manga once this is over. Maybe.

I have no shame into becoming a literal fanboy just for Zen and Shirayuki.

Anyway, it was pretty nice to get some insight of prince Izana, he's not evil by any means just like the flashback showed. Also, next episode we get to know more about Zen's past and his friends which is very good indeed.

Gotta admit it felt a bit slow, not much action. But still a lot happened. And it's cute.

This episode reminded me of Glasslip though, probably because of the voice actors and the slow calm pace...

Sure, he came off as a jerk in the start of the series but that is again why I'm interested in his character development and his story ahead... if there's gonna be any that is.

Also, Zen x Shirayuki seem boring couple and given how light-hearted the series is, I don't think there's gonna be any tension or drama in it.

While Kiki x Mitsuhide FTW!

I actually would prefer two people who like each other to gradually progress in their relationship rather than some no doubt contrived drama or love triangle. There is so much of that to be found elsewhere.

And, spoilers for Raj ...
[spoiler] He actually gets some pretty great character development. Shirayuki's influence on him is profound.

It seem we're back to "everything's very dramatic" route, even just to prevent someone from drinking a wrong medicine was so dramatic. Wow. Well, this is just how every shoujo anime goes.


But it wasn't? He's the first prince of a country, visiting Clarines' royal palace - and he was invited by Clarines' first prince. Poisoning him during such a visit would have probably had pretty serious political consequences.

I guess, but given his smart looks, abilities and personality is what makes him boring to me tbh. He's already a pretty perfect candidate for romance against Shirayuki.

^ Exactly.. I don't really like the cliche love rival plot.
It's better for everyone to have their match and live happily ever after lol.
Oh well as long as they know where to pull the stops its fine.
The hug was pretty nice.. yes cuddle more young puppies. XD

Izana is a GENIUS. Easily the coolest character in the series so far and a very welcome balance to Zen's insipid personality.

Raj is surprisingly cool too considering how much of a douche he was in the first episode.

So the brother is not so much of an asshole..? Or he's a bipolar asshole, who can't decide whether being an asshole or a good prince?

Shirayuki sure is some good wife material. Just admit it, Zen, she's yo' waifu. I'm sure he's hidding a body pillow of her somewhere...

Raj rose a bit in my estime. He's probably still a bastard, but at least, he's trying to chance.

Please, just keep teasing me with all of these not-yet-romance but totally ship worthy moments. Izana's ploy with the feuding lords was marvelous, I have a new found respect for him and I'm glad that they didn't play him off as a villain. It's just that people are rightfully dumbfounded that a prince would pay so much attention to Shirayuki and it looks like he got his answer by the end. I also like how they brought a bit of closure on Raj as well, that he's probably been somewhat inspired by Shirayuki's desire for him to become a worthy ruler.

That awkward moment when Izana ends up kissing Shirayuki before Zen does. xD It doesn't really make sense why he did that. Was it acceptance? Amused affection? A whim of attraction because of the prolonged challenging eye-contact?

I like Izana's character though. He's incredibly manipulative, and communicates in a subtle, indirect manner, but doesn't seem like a bad guy overall. Especially considering his move against corruption. I'm glad he gained a bit of respect for Shirayuki, or at least saw the strength in her that his brother does.
He just thinks strategically and not emotionally; about their status and positions as opposed to matters of the heart. That's refreshing for a character as manipulative behavior and deviousness stereotypically go hand in hand. He may make a very good king.

The hugging and hand-holding was so sweet. It's such an innocent, honest romance.

Also starting to like Raj though still think he was a complete prick to Shirayuki in the first episode. His interactions with her and Zen seem to be having a good effect though so we'll see how he turns out.

When oniisama hits that before you do
I feel like this was all a test to see if Shirayuki would be an asshole princess (Or Queen?)
I agree though, Izana's a troll but he really does have the best in mind. At the same time, while I ship ZenxShirayuki, I'm wondering how it'd affect him if he became king. (and she became queen)

I knew Izana was an awesome dude. He's more interesting than that overly zealous Zen. Zen isn't my favorite character as of the moment but I'll forgive the fucker because he makes Shirayuki happy.

I wish the romance wasn't so linear. I like the somewhat apothecary/pharmaceutical aspect of it but I wish there was more to it.

I wish Shirayuki had more choices than just Zen and some random guys who are bland that end up having crushes on her. Ugh.

Shirayuki and Zen, they may not want to admit this yet but they look more like a couple. The way Zen embraces Shitayuki, holds hands with her, walks with her while holding hands, that to me is what couples tend to do.

Loved how Shirayuki was so firm with Izana.
