No unless they are going with an absolute monarchy, which, seeing the situation with this show it obviously isn't the case here. |
| Pleasantly surprised with this anime, the mindset of Anis prior and post royal position responsibilities, is great to watch, the drama doesn't feel forced at all, personally. |
| well this is just getting more and more shit with unnecessary drama. |
| I guess weebs, critical thinking, and basic political knowledge don't go together. Been seeing a lot of shit takes in this thread, completely ignoring common political sense, previously established world-building, and pivotal events that changed the direction of the story. All they care about are probably yuri, moe, and cum, I guess that's why |

gawed said: this story has the entire potential of going FMA level of storytelling and drama. it could give so much depth through well done emotional conflict that could merit 2 or 3 24 ep seasons (and obviously a lengthy manga ride)... yet it seems they went the way of a cliché rushed and badly sustained romcom conflict that will end in some sillyness, just like they rushed the whole Al situation. The princess suddenly changes character, it could be great to show how deep her inferiority complex actually runs beneath all that showoff personality mask, but the conflict suddenly becomes shallow and even childish, while it was perfectly executed in acting and directing . so if only, if only had they decided to invest more into giving depth to the entire world building situation and the weight and consecuences, this could become a top show. but surely next episode will be a silly fight with a sudden obvious confession and everybody happy with an easy solution in place. rom com cliché. The potential for a true magical revolution/civil War in the kingdom to seriously address it's problems (with a tad of deep personal and lovers struggle is farther away) :(. Either a deep plot twist happens in the next episode or it will be just another rushed Isekai/romcom of sorts. Sad. but hey, at least it brought Yuri a bit closer to mainstream. A better comparison would be Ascendance of a Bookworm, which has amazing world building and clearly established character motivation, showing how powerless individuals can be even for a genius Isekai'd MC. This show could have shown what the kingdom looks like (from the inside, outside, among social classes, potential threats against it's wellbeing), especially the lives of the peasantry and the nobles. This will provide support for Al's action and Anis' change in behaviors. |
|
| tbh this is one of the most annoying arcs I've ever watched. Anis' motives really feel as if they've massively shifted just to fabricate this drama. I will be shocked if this has a satisfying ending, as there really doesn't seem to be any good outcome with this situation. |
 |
| Very sad to see how weak and pathetic Anis has become. Quite interesting how all of the sudden things are reversed and Euphie is not the strong one. |

| Wow this one is rough for Anis' choices, if only Al wasn't a dumbass to begin with. Man this is why I can't stand Politics in anime, where's my cute girls doing cute things! One has to sacrifice their freedom, I wonder if there's another option to this. Great episode so hard to stomach this one. |
Why do we have to live in such a cruel world?  |
| This episode is kinda on the heavier side compared to the rest of the episodes in the series. Now Anis is the one being all depressed. Imma just guess that next episode they'll make a magical revolution like in the title. But still a pretty neat anime despite it. |
 |
| Here it comes, the Battle of the Heroes. That's what I'm gonna call it. Whatever happens next episode, I hope they announce a S2 since I'm not sure how else I will satiate myself. |
 |
| The anime and the next episode are named "Magical Revolution", so I guess Anisphia won't just quietly accept what the nobles want from her. It might have to do with magicology that she pioneered. They could potentially try to revolutionize the country, but will surely meet with opposition from the nobles. Anisphia seems unsure what to do. She doesn't want to get rid of her hobby, marry and have children immediately. |

| Hmm, I'm sad to say the past few episodes have lowered my opinion of the show. It could've been a 9 but my rating will definitely be lower by the time it ends. Not much is going on and there's a lack of variety in setting. The characters are always just arguing and crying in some room. I echo the thoughts of everyone saying the drama feels contrived and also doesn't make much sense. The quality in animation and voice acting are still there, but that's it... it's polished boringness. What's the point of things looking nice when nothing interesting is happening? I think the story is going to end in a way that feels incomplete and unsatisfying. Based on this episode, I don't anticipate a good conclusion. Feels like lost potential in a series with such lovely characters :( It wasn't the yuri fantasy story of my dreams after all |
| yes. didn't kigns have the power to do anything? execute people on the spot etc? sounds like it. I don't remember any bill of rights or voting or checks and balances back in those days... |

MRD_Crowe said: To add, it's always been the case that Anis has been conscious of the words being spoken behind her back. How she concedes to her Heretic reputation, when she rescinds her right to the throne due to rumors, or even how she isolates herself by living in a detached villa. Even with her pursuit of Magicology, she holds back on bringing any of it to the public eye, not because of a lack of desire, but likely from fearing the ministry's ire. At least that's what I glimpse from the way she gets emotional seeing Euphie defend Magicology and trying to push for its acceptance. You've hit the nail on the head. Anis' behavior in this episode didn't just come out of nowhere. It actually makes perfect sense. This all came to a head during her battle with Al when she realized how much pain he had to go through in her place after she kinda just dropped all of her responsibilities on him when they were kids. So, when you combine her guilt with her dream, her inferiority complex, her unfavorable reputation among the nobles, and the fact that Euphie—someone she cherishes—has expressed interest in not only replacing Anis as the future queen but is even willing to give up her humanity to do so, it's no surprise that she's experiencing a slew of conflicting emotions. A lot of folks in this thread have either not been paying attention or have completely missed the point of what was being conveyed in this episode. Now that she's back to becoming the Queen Regnant, she can't run from it anymore and all of those insecurities are coming back in full force, and Euphie implying she'd be unfit to be queen was probably a low blow for her. |
Kayle_x_Morgana said: No one rules alone, even to execute/imprison someone, you need someone who controls an enforcement regiment to seize that person, and people to watch over prisons and hold executions and these are managed by those under you. Imagine if you suddenly stepped into power and gave the order to kill/imprison a large majority of the nobles, do you really think they'd carry out your orders? Don't you think they'd try to depose you?yes. didn't kigns have the power to do anything? execute people on the spot etc? sounds like it. I don't remember any bill of rights or voting or checks and balances back in those days... I understand the imagined myth of Kingship is someone whose words weigh absolute, but that's not the case in reality. Look at the list of kings who are deposed, sometimes within just a couple of years from when they took power. If Kings were truly absolute, we wouldn't even be able to arrive at our current state of society would we? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_monarchs_who_lost_their_thrones_before_the_13th_century |
| This episode broke me man. Between Euphie wanting to be queen but in order to do so she'll lose all her memories, the fact that the nobles were talking so non-nonchalant about marrying Anisphia to someone (Probably old) so she could have a kid/heir, her throwing up at the idea of it. It just broke me. |

|
| As I see it, Anis needs her position to do research and be able to spread it once it works. Without such a position, she would be subject to harassment or worse, like heresy. However, I don't think the series will come to a conclusion in the next episode. Cue the next season! |
| Interesting to see the reactions towards this shift from a story of Girls Love in a fantasy setting, to that of fantasy politics. I totally can sympathize with anyone who aren't liking these last two episodes. Ri-KoRin said: I think that the anime adaptation's lack of setup/worldbuilding is to blame for the mixed reactions for these last two episodes. Some viewers would not be asking questions like "why not get a royal relative?" if the anime did a better job of showcasing how plot essential facets of society functioned in this fantasy world.gawed said: this story has the entire potential of going FMA level of storytelling and drama. it could give so much depth through well done emotional conflict that could merit 2 or 3 24 ep seasons (and obviously a lengthy manga ride)... yet it seems they went the way of a cliché rushed and badly sustained romcom conflict that will end in some sillyness, just like they rushed the whole Al situation.

| Bruh, those four geezers in the beginning, she just needs to bury them alive. And then she has the perfect 'king' for her already, so she can still focus on magicology...don't you see it too, Anis? I hope so. |
| bruh |
| Espero que saquen una segunda temporado pronto |
 |
| Sure that's quite sad of course she wouldn't want Euphy to do that spirit contract after learning what it does... they're going to fight for the finale? Interesting |
 |
| w0w! that was impressive dramatic as hell! they're gonna duel next ep! i wanna see what would happen if it ends-up "draw" hahaha 5/5. |
 |
| bro felt like a 5 min episode. this ep flew by. feels like this season will end on a huge cliffhanger or something. i hope we get a new season, hopefully in fall2023. |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| Poor Anisphia ;_; All the nobles in this show are trash Overall this was an alright episode though. It felt really slow and honestly kinda boring in some parts, but it's not that bad. How is this going to end though? Is Euphie seriously going to become a spirit contractor? |
 |
| Tilty, my beloved, The only character with some semblance of common sense in this land of idiots. Seriously, what a bad episode this one was. Unnecessarily overdramatic and with Anis acting more insufferable than ever. Her now caring about her royal status feels forced asf and the same goes for her currently feeling "useless" when she clearly didn't give a shit about any of these matters at the beginning of the show. Like, "useless"? She killed a damn dragon mid season ffs. And hell, what's wrong with her father? Does he even know where he's standing? Why is the King being so useless and stupid? |
| yeah it's gotten very disappointing, what the hell was this episode, felt like I was watching a completely different anime, definitely changed for the worst compared to the first episodes |
RinTheWanderer said: I agree, the rules for rulers break down when the destructive power of the ruler is equal to or above that of the rest of the army. Annihilating the keys that do not fall in line is a viable strategy. LostSpectre said: I think you're assuming way too much, she clearly does not have the kind of power or influence you're talking about nor are the nobles just a bunch of doddering old pushovers. You're also not accounting for the difference in her circumstances, the only reason she could be the carefree adventuring princess in earlier episodes, was the fact that she was removed from all royal responsibilities, all of the burden was on Al's shoulders. It's also clear the she may have more of an inferiority complex about her lack of magic, in a world ruled by magic, than what has previously been shown. Now that the weight and responsibility of succession lies with her, I don't think it's ridiculous at all for her to demonstrate some measure of pride as the kingdom's princess or to feel anger/shame at the idea of being replaced. The fact that Euphie would have to sacrifice herself is absolutely part of that, even if it wasn't the main focal point, and it can be assumed she feels guilty about Al's circumstances, and how he suffered while she was free. The military could not stop the dragon, anis could and then after that anis gained the dragons knowledge and power so she's even stronger than when she was already stronger than the entire nations military. You don't know what you are talking about. Who could stop her? The only person even approaching her power, is euphie, who is on her side and her vampire brother, who she beat, and is on the side of overthrowing the trash government. The military should absolutely love her, as she is the only reason they didn't die to the dragon. The people love her so much they'd be sad if she was queen solely because they couldn't see her anymore, while they despise the actual nobility for discrimination. It's all very visible during her "date" with euphie where they go to the blacksmith. Let's look at it another way though. Let's say she remains stupid and becomes queen. What is a queen's duty? To protect her people. Who is hurting her people? The nobility. No matter what, she has to eradicate the nobility and she already has power, popular support and authority. She was literally in a meeting with the spirit fuckers agreeing to not vastly improve the lives of her people in order to let the spirit faction retain the control they use to exploit the people. And her responsibility. She shirked her responsibility right from the start. Yes, it had Al that it fell too, but now it would just fall to the king, who can either have another kid or adopt. Dude is also 40 and isn't ill. Theres no reason to think anything needs to be done anytime soon. She's sacrificing everything good for the sake of gaining the favor of evil people. It makes no sense for her character to do that. Not when so far she has butted into formality and taken euphie away and continued to develop magicology despite the spirit factions protests. It's just stupid and out of character. Where was the drive to prove the power of magic that she had to put her life on the line fighting the dragon? Where is her sense of justice the steeled her heart to kill her only brother for lesser crimes than the people she now supports? It's ludicrous and bad writing. |
