Feels like plot progression has ground to a halt since a few episodes ago. Don't get me wrong--this is still a decent lighthearted comedy, but every character so far has been captured too easily and too completely. At first it was interesting at least to see how Katarina unwittingly caused the original plot to diverge, but at this point there's no development and every bit of Katarina's interactions with others is starting to feel stale and repetitive. And this kind of stagnation is entirely avoidable since we got teased something pretty interesting already--Sophia potentially being a reincarnator just like Katarina.

So here's hoping we see something different in the last 4 episodes, because if it's just more of the same Katarina swoon I won't even hope for a S2.

Alan being a tsundere he is definitely one of my fav, I thought they were gonna keep Katarina pairless or Katarina x Sweets, but are they hinting towards a real couple? :o

LOL, the book makes everyone but Bakarina pervs...

Also, I wonder if the event continues even if Mary/ Maria closes the book...

IE: Bakarina getting "uncomfortable" by Georde for an entire night... oh god... (cause that's Georde's "desire")

___ ___ ___

LOL @ Alan getting slammed 5 sec into the book.

And Bakarina turns into Fatarina then explodes, LOL.

___ ___ ___

And the end scene... looks like they're about to kiss, LOL. "Is this another Illusion? NO, it's REAL LIFE". WELP, looks like Alan got another step up into Bakarina's Harem chart over other Harems.

P.S.: I really wish Katarina would have commented on the fact she just got isekai'd out of her isekai. That's something I've only seen Shield Hero's manga pull off before.


Do you think we will get this scene in second or third season of shield hero?



Probably, the manga really only covered one major arc since the anime's ending, so either it will happen on season 2, or be the start of a possible season 3.
If I could be an expert in just one arcane,
and madness inducing field of study,
it would be you.

lmao Mary got her own personalised hell just for her xD This episode is definitely one of my favourites so far.
omg Alan probably the least looking but most innocent one out of the group, all my guy wanted to do was play the piano for Katarina why Mary gotta do him like that :c still i can probably confidently say at this point that Alan is my favourite male character from this anime.
Sophia did not hold back on Katarina, she went IN. I guess the fact that sometimes Katarina can be denser then a black hole at times worked in her favour but.... i'd slide Silverlink a £20 to see how far they'll animate sophia's desires ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) hmmmm Silverlink i've SEEN what you can do with your Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya i know what you can do *lenny face intensifys*
Episode was overall fucking brilliant, but the final scene when all the characters realised there desires for Katarina were revealed... and just suddenly got up one by one and excused themselves was fucking the tipping point to uncontrollable laughter for me idk why. I haven't laughed at something this hard in an anime since Konsuba lmao

I love the fact that Mary is not worried that her future husband is falling for someone else, but that that someone else is her prospective future wife.

the dream with Nicol had some serious tuxedo mask/sailor moon vibes not gonna lie XD I really liked that!

Maybe Bakarina has the best chemistry with Alan after all? He always seems to be the only character that is not openly lusting after her in some way. At least that's how I see it...I think he hasn't even realized his own feelings yet :o

Personally I'm team Geordo tho hehehe

I couldn't have been the only one who felt bad for the fact that Mary had to see snippets of every possible ship circulating around Bakarina..

Alan, even you can't hide from the harem that she commands control over.

Still, I had fun with this episode. Of course the girl's still too innocent and oblivious to know what to do with the harem XD part of her charm. I can't say perfect because I almost thought that the book would reveal her desire of avoiding death flags, it would have been a nice way to expose her paranoia to at least the supposed MC Mary. but nope. Food wins lol.

I wonder if Catarina collecting all the romance flags and dodging her doom flags - turns Mary into the vileness?

The last two episodes are not in the source material I've read are they anime only? If so have they written an alternative timeline ending specifically for the anime?

If they were following the source material they'd be doing the "Dark magic arc".

Lmfao this filler completely reminded me of Yandere Otome Game,

I was like.... Uhhhh I don't remember this happening in this anime's original plotline wtf but I remember it in another ones.

Regardless, I liked it. But wish we got actually content from the manga/LN.

I really didn't enjoy this filler. It wasn't because it was not in the manga, but because the plot and the joke is painfully average. It also did not do too much in character development (maybe a little bit with Alan). Really wish the add more depth to character or maybe some character to another character interaction because right now the group revolves around Katarina.

Tbh, I feel like this anime misunderstand what is depth to a character. It's not about a character's past or gimmicky trait. A depth of a character is seeing the character from different perspective, for example, what is Mary like without Katarina around? Is Geordo and Keith friend without Katarina around? What does Geordo actually do around the academy? What does Maria think about Sophia and Mary? Does Sophia really loves Katarina or do she wants Katarina to marry her brother? etc etc

This anime got filler because it has to be stretched but it is wasted.

This was a funny episode as we got to see the desires of each of the people teleported into the book, we got to see them as they "Could" have been like if it were the otome game.... And then there Catarina, who desire was too great for the magic book.

It was funny to see how everyone was embarrassed once they are realised what had happened.

Entering the world of fantasy in the world of fantasy? I can't believe Katarina would survived on that whole situations. Unfortunately, she could! Lmao, every person had their own lust toward Katarina. Its obvious, honestly. But seeing that shit in the real occasion really served something different. Mary jealousy felt a bit exaggerated on the whole book story. Why you stopped the whole fun thing like that? Damn you, girl! I felt bad to Maria too, she couldn't received the same bloodlust. And congrats with that confession Sophia, you really deserved that. However, such a sad to all peoples, that Katarina couldn't feel the same way to the others. Because, yeah, her only love just for the snack. Great, Katarina, great! XD

Ah, everything I dislike about Mary pulled into one episode. It is one thing to have a decade-long crush on someone, it is another for it to be the main focus of your life 24/7!! I do not want her to end up with Baka-chan. We got to see everyone, except Maria, play out their fantasy story with Baka-chan and I am sure Mary's story would be the most perverted of them all!!! I think it would be hilarious and satisfying if she finally fell in love with Prince Alan, like she is suppose to in the game. She is NOT a good match for Baka-chan because she is not considerate for others, even refusing to acknowledge that some people might be a better choice for Katerina than herself. Lastly, the pervert in me wishes I could have seen more of these fantasy segments, at least let them kiss her in their own fantasies!!!!
I feel so bad for Geordio. He has been crushing on her the longest and everyone (including Katerina herself) ignores the fact that he is ENGAGED to her. At least allow him to get SOME privacy time. I know everyone is "cock-clocking" each other, but he has a RIGHT to flirt with her. This is an injustice. I know this is a comedy, but other people have had far better success and I feel like he has never had a chance to connect with her on an emotional level. It is funny that all he cares about is getting her in the sack and Keith is being "the good brother" by making sure Katerina stays a virgin bride, but LET HIM KISS HER ONE TIME. LET HIM GET THE FIRST KISS AND THEN THE HAREM BATTLE CAN OFFICIALLY COMMENCE. I don't care, as long as it is not Mary, who gets her, but I want Geordio to get the first kiss out of respect for his position.

They left Mary as one of the two left behind, cause if her desires with Katharine were shown, it would’ve been like Sophia’s, but quadruple the intensity. It would’ve had to be censored.

This episode is less than stellar for me, but it's keeps up with the great storytelling that is this anime series.

The whole "Desires" magic bit is cool, as I finally realize that Catarina has completely misplaced Maria completely as heroine of the otome game as all the love interests' desires involve hitting on Catarina. None of them play out due to Mary's closing the book before they completely play out.
