Another SoL episode where Shirayuki aids Zen in his quest to learn more about his kingdom and play hero/detective. That first line may sound like a complaint, but to be perfectly honest, I'm loving this slow, chill format of this show. This is literally becoming my favorite shoujo, specifically because the female lead isn't a damsel in distress, and the White-Horsed Prince spends most of his time doing his own thing, instead of agonizing over how he should "get the girl" and all that.

Sure we have drama, but it rarely involves the internal feelings of our two leads. The two of them are so well put together that they can operate on their own, making the fact that they compliment one another just an added bonus, instead of a necessity like in most shoujos. It also helps that the supporting cast are all just as well composed, making for a nice realistic story with less of the romance drama that these shows normally entail.

What can I really say? This show is so chill.
I'm loving it. I'm even looking forward to seeing what the Older brother brings to the table.

Loving it so far. Super chill and sweet fantasy series, something younger me would have really liked around the time they were discovering Pretty Cure. Shirayuki + Zen moments are still 2cute4me.

Now this is what I have been waiting for this anime to have. Less cheesy & over-the-top interaction between the characters, a real conflict(not a small thing but made to look dramatic/important), & a believable(neither corny nor overly convenient) way to solve the conflict. Now let's see whether they can keep this quality until the end.
I like anime.

Yes her feeling will remain unwavered, but if the older prince's personality is the forceful type of prince I can imagine lots of things happening on the next episode. But considering that this anime is only PG-13, I guess I'm just imagining too much.

I'm really liking this anime, really glad Shirayuki only has eyes for Zen but that doesn't mean other's won't try. Damn, Shirayuki and Zen will make amazing children lol (I'm thinking in the future here)

Also, I have a strong feeling that the Brother will put Shirayuki though a ton to see if she is really worth it to be with Zen. And maybe the same for Zen to make sure Shirayuki is the one he truly wants..Make's sense. I doubt he'll try to force himself on Shirayuki that wouldn't really suit this anime, but you never know

Episode 5/5 from me.

Liking the characters more but i feel the show could be a bit better if it was a bit more linear, the prince next week looks intriguing.

Simply perfect, I don't know how else to describe it. It's just such a likeable series, the last time I felt this way was when I watched Barakamon, it's just such a chill show to watch in the evening.

Loving the growing chemistry between Zen and Shirayuki.

It is a relif to see believable romance. It's definitely what lacks in writing nowadays, more so than anything, really.

First episode where someone didn't bring attention to Shiraiyuki's hair color.

That last bedroom scene was so cute, I can feel that they're just a few episodes away from fully realizing their feelings for one another.

What are you saying? A sequel is already scheduled, most likely for Winter Season (2016 Jan-Mar). If they touch the chapters of the Sea-Talons this season (which is now likely with the current pace, even though the characters are not listed in the anime cast as of yet), then it will already be a great season. But expect a fantastic ride this coming winter (if the sequel airs then) because this is one of those stories (particularly in shoujo genre) that keeps on getting better as it progresses.

I remember reading the chapters they were a couple chapters but they put everything in 1 episode. Kind of felt rushed to me not only that they also left out couple thinks that I liked like for example when Obi helped Shirayuki with the box he had to hide because Zen was calling her from the Castle above :/

Am I the only one seeing that she's starting to build up her own harem?

Also, I'm quite disturbed about Zen fighting on the front lines, and why didn't he bring any of the fort soldiers when they went to the bandit camp, Dude seems like an easy target.

Overall, I think the episode made me pull my hair and scream "JUST KISS ALREADY" a couple of times. 8/10

His brother next time? Good I was wondering about him. The fight was cool and it's nice to see Shirayuki saving them with her knowledge. I honestly don't like their character designs, the faces seem really weird to me.

Is it me or Zen was the only one fighting with his sword in a non-lethal way? That's cute :)
But bodyguards can't afford that much compassion.

Eh, so Zen has a hot blond older brother? I'm sure this won't create any trouble at all...

Ah, I'm loving this anime. -w- I like how they make the story progression pace, it does like two chapters per episode. Already to when things get great, I hope they stick close to the manga. ;w;

Regarding this particular episode:

Those little snowmen Obi kept making. So. CUTE. XD I love that cat-ninja.

Yay~ for ZenxShirayuki moments~! So adorable, they make me go 'aww' and grin like an idiot no matter how hard I try not to. :'D

I like that guard at the fort, he was sweet. Poor guy. .3.

Oh, and yay, Izana makes his appearance next time! I'm a bit of mixed feelings about him, from what I've read in the manga. Still, I kinda like him, it helps that he's super-hot. -w-

Don't expect there to be a kiss early on even in a romance, as kissing--particularly deep kissing--is more intimate in Japanese culture than a lot of other places. Our two love birds are taking it slow and steady, the kiss on the hand followed by hand holding on her bed indicates that our OTP are pretty much really into each other already. Keep in mind that as a prince of the realm, even a younger prince, he has to keep his heart somewhat guarded as it is likely that he will have to eventually make a political marriage unless he can justify doing otherwise.

This episode was pretty cute without the moe. But forcing Shirayuki to count to 60 with her eyes closed was GENIUS! The end of the episode seemed like a confession to me....I love how slow paced this romance is, kinda like Spice and Wolf in pacing.
