When a shoujo show has more action than even action anime...

This was a really fantastic episode. I loved how everyone worked together and all had an important part to play in saving Shirayuki. I almost forgot how Shirayuki was just putting up a brave front for most of the ordeal; you can really feel her relief flooding through when Zen hugged her. I'm glad that this arc has ended, as much as I enjoyed it. Also Raji is the cutest <3

Kind of expected the dad thing. Mitsuhide's face in the last cut made me cackle. I hope we get some cute awkward family scenes next!


First off, Prince Raj's development Has been going on very nicely. Finally Shirayuki gets back to Zen.

Kinda expected The Lions of the Mountain to be related to her somehow so not much of a surprise.

DAD?? :D
I'm afraid Zen is gonna have troubles with his brother when they try to return Shirayuki to the castle. And Obi is gonna feel very guilty, for few reasons.
Lets see how it all goes.

This season/cour of Shirayuki feels more like Yona of the Dawn. Not saying that that's a bad thing. Just feels nothing like the first one, which had more of an Aria tone to it.

I don't think he knew the girl who was kidnapped was his daughter, judging from his reaction. I can't recall if anyone ever mentioned Shirayuki's name to him though so I might be wrong.


I dunno not many people have red hair, that's why she's so special. He must of known it was a red-haired girl, he should have at least suspected it might be her. But you're right he seemed surprised when he saw her.

Another theory is that he didn't want to see her cuz he obviously abandoned. Her grandparents raised her. While this man is off playing bandit/bodyguard.


It would be super cheap if the reason for kidnapping her is that Kazuki found himself in her because of the red-hair-incident, so it would be the best if her dad wanted to see her or whatever (and couldn't ask her the normal way 'cause he's a bandit). I just hope it ends up like that and that the reason for his surprisement is that she changed a lot over the years and he didn't see her in a while...something among those lines.

I agree. The first season felt more special, like an old Disney movie, while the second season resembles more of Akatsuki no Yona as the episodes progress. Especially with this pirates-kidnappers and battles on the sea.

Good arc overall. Ended on a nice surprise--DAD!
Pretty cool to have mountain vs sea, then Clarines representing sky with smart use of the bird tracker with Obi relaying the stone. Well planned flanking their base. And Raj bravery & development was excellent to see. Never expected him to lead a fleet & ram a ship with himself in the bow. Animation was fine but fighting too short, or just wanted pirates punished more. Kiki did well but still needs more screentime. Nice vortices.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?

That was quite the twist, didn't see that coming at all!

Still super lame to see Obi get shafted and Zen to be the hero, same with Prince Raj. At least Raj was able to change his image that the merchants originally had for him.

Raj should've made the pirate lady his personal concubine. That would've been perfect.

Oh, Raj made this episode a lot better than I thought he would. Way better than Zen being the commander. Plus, it shows his character development, too. My favorite episode so far.

Another nice MitsuKiki moment Also, it was satisfying to see Umihebi drop that smug off her face. She was annoying me for a while now. And yay for the plot twist, loved it!

I obviously don't care about ZenYuki at this stage. ObiYuki and RajYuki are far more entertaining to watch. All ZenYuki has is, awkward hugs and cheesy dialogues. I used to like them together, but it's getting annoying.

Shirayuki's long lost family returns??

A nice development with her relationship with Zen as well. Their hug was cute. Both of them must have strong feelings for the other, don't forget Zen told his brother he wants to marry Shirayuki.

What a fairy tale.

- Kiki is thrown her sword.
- Me: gets excited to see Kiki beat up the bad guys.
- Mitsuhide jumps in and beats the bad guys.
- Me: dissappointed

At least there was a later shot of her slicing and dicing the pirates.

I was wondering about Shirayuki's parents a couple episode back, but couldn't recall what was mentioned about them in the first season...

Obi seems to still feel frustrated at his incapability to protect Shirayuki properly from the beginning :(

Nice action this episode. Zen looked totally wild and he and Obi were going all out. Better not to incur his wrath. Well, the pirates learned this lesson the hard way. And Raj was actually cool.

I hope this pirate scum gets executed. Or at least thrown in jail forever. I love her facial expression, when she realized she's fucked.

I'm not surprise that the pirate chick gets to live in jail. If she was a man, probably Zen would of finished him off and my second disappointment has to be with the blond chick, I thought she was added in the story to fight 1 on 1 against the pirate chick. What a total let down, but a twist with Shirayuki dad in the end was unexpected.

LMAO I had a feeling he was her dad. The hair and eyes gave it away for me when I first saw him.

ALL RIGHT, FOLKS. THIS EPISODE IS SO INTENSE. HEROES TO THE RESCUE!


Everyone is badass here.


Prince Zen goes in full wrath mode with his glaring eyes while fighting against the pirates. (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ (ง ͠° ͟ل͜ ͡°)ง ♥‿♥




Prince Raj becomes courageous and performs his duties well. He overcomes his fears. I am so proud of him! He has a good character development!




Obi, Mitsuhide, Kiki, and the Mountain's Lions squad have also a good fight against the enemies.






AAAAAH. ZEN AND SHIRAYUKI EMBRACE EACH OTHER. THEY FINALLY REUNITE!


ZEN X SHIRAYUKI. (>人<) (ღ˘⌣˘ღ) ♥‿♥





Enemies have been defeated! Goodbye, Umihebi and your squad!




So the chief of the Mountain's Lions is Shirayuki's father. What a plot twist!

I knew it!!
Shirayuki and the Cheif of the LoM both have such similar complexions, and once I narrowed it down I realized that them being related is the only reason that they would want her. I also thought that the Woman who kidnapped them was her mom, but I doubt it since Shirayuki didn't recognize her but did for her dad.
Watching lots of intellectual animes with a bunch of plot twists really helps out in the end haha ^^

Cliche but great episode to complete the rescue of Shirayuki and Kazuki, by Prince Raj, Prince Zen, their people and the Mountain Lions. Everything was well handled, and the twist in the end with Shirayuki's father was a genuinely surprising one and a damn good cliffhanger I have to say, really came out of nowhere. Even so, lots to love about this episode and by far the best episode of this season so far that's paled a bit in comparison to the first one, helping this season come close somewhat. Might end up giving it the same rating as the first season (7/10) if the next few episodes can deliver somewhat.

Wow, great episode! The entire episode was thrilling, and the end twist was really great too.

I really like Raj now. The sight of him, the Crown Prince of Tanbarun, leading a fleet of warships against the pirates was just amazing. His growth has been great, and he's slowly shaping up to be a true royal prince like Zen. Really loved the panicked look on the pirates' faces.

And when he appeared out of the vortices too. That was awesome. And then he rammed the ship, before it was all topped off with a pincer attack by Zen's party and the Mountain Lions. Pretty amazing battle, and a sweet embrace between our two main leads ^^

So the dark red hair indeed foreboded that the Mountain Lion leader is Shirayuki's father? I know I entertained the possibility last episode, but the way it was shown was really surprising. I want to know more, and also why Shirayuki's parents left her with her grandparents and why he seemed like he didn't recognise his daughter (although that's maybe acting, since he did send Kazuki and Itoya to rescue her).

So exciting! This second season is multiple times better than the first!

I knew it'll be a fairy tale rescue. Zen miraculous appeared out of somewhere.. I guess they didn't explain how but fine I won't ask for the reasoning. As that's how it goes in these shows.

Raj, though finally elevated his status from a clown character to somewhat someone we can atleast see in a new light lol. That dad thing in the end sure was something lmao.
