----------------------------------------
Damn, seeing the despair on Klass' face is hard to watch. The idea of her becoming a witch isn't an easy fact to accept, especially after what she's discovered.

A bit of a slow episode as they gave more time for Iska and Klass to bond. This war really has an effect on everyone. I didn't expect Rin to spike Iska's drink though.

Captain Mismis turned into a witch.

When Rin gave drink to Iska, I was already suspicious, there's no way Rin could do something nice to Iska

OH HO, it seems like Alice has roped in her personal assistant Rin to desire peace amongst the two empires. After time and time again of encountering Iska in neutral land, it may seem coincidental, but the narrative already swings that way, so what's new.

An infiltration to kidnap Alice for continuing Iska's mission? That is a lofty goal, but as with Rin, Alice's ideal situation to meet Iska for days can only mean bad omens, one after another. Even Rin not being enamored by Alice's declining wish of being Queen and leading their own empire, that's just normalcy for warfare.

Captain Mismis being affected by the Sovereignity's astral spirit curse from the Vortex last episode, WELP, so much for being a useless support character...? Yet the senseless Iska and the others choosing her to take precedence for the entire N07 team, I'm sure they've considered their hard and thoughtout choices should she be found out by their own ally and branded a traitor, which is totally like Iska.

This plot of always meeting in the Neutral City, has gotten a lot more worse each and everytime. Iska being sleep-drugged (thank God it wasn't poison) and taken into custody, looks like Mismis is gonna do something...?

I sincerely don't know where this is going, this entire episode felt like it's the audigy of "beating around the bush".

Rin fucked up big time. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Kidnapping Iska is going to have the opposite effect. Not only will he and Alice grow closer, but you’ve also now pissed of Mismis who’s awakened her witch powers, as well as angering the empire. Good one.

Overall, probably my fave episode so far, lots of cute Alice and Mismis moments. Wish this show got more love.

So Mismis awakened her astral power after falling into the vortex from the previous episode. Good thing her team will keep this as a secret. Tho it probably will not end well for her if the Empire finds out.

The Empire has big goals like trying to kidnap the enemy Queen.

Man big mistake by Rin in her part. Not Surprised that Rin spiked the drink I scene anime in this Situation and they don't turn out good. And taking Iska to custody at there place I can already tell whats gonna go down Good Things and Bad Things Alice is going to glow more feelings for Iska and Bad Thing is that they made themselves more of a threat to the Empire I already have this feeling something Big is going to happen.

And With The Captain Gaining Witch Powers I can tell. She's going to use her power to bring back Iska

I can tell someone is going to get blamed for this
It's going to be there down fall

Well, well the captain is now a witch...interesting. Hopefully she's doesn't get detained by the empire but do something useful for once.

When Rin gave Iska a drink it was so obvious that she would have drugged it. Welp, now Iska is captured by Sovereignity, I'm kind of excited to see what's to come.

OK episode :\

For a seemingly calm episode after how crazy action packed last weeks was things did not go well. I wondered if Mismis would be effected by the vortex and come to find out she absolutely was. Getting an astral crest is pretty crazy. That means big changes for Mismis and 907th, having to keep her new witch status a secret will not he easy. Especially now that Alice and Rin know she has an astral crest at the end of this episode. It was really emotional seeing the team comfort Mismis after she started crying about not being able to be their captain anymore. I'd be heartbroken if the Empire separated them from her. She's kinda ditzy but a good captain all the same, it would be a sad moment to see her taken away. I hope they can keep it a secret even from the Saint Disciples.

I did not expect Rin so spike Iska drink with a sleeping drug, that was crazy. Alice seemed kinda ticked but not nearly as upset as she should've been. Although maybe secretly happy they can take him back and she can fight him finally. Don't think it'll be that smooth but we'll see. Mismis trying to stop them was sad, if she had more handle on her new astral powers maybe she could've. Hope we see the 907th bust into the sovereignty and take him back, with Mismis unleashing her powers.

I practically feel like i am watching Kaguya and Hayasaka all over again.. Rin having sem voice as Hayasaka is a bonus..
Anyways.. really glad that this didn't turned out to be a harem atleast in first 6 episodes..
Captain becoming a witch is a fairly cliche but good plot twist imo. makes you feel like that there are other characters beside the main cast.. lets just hope that this makes her less annoying.
anyways.. a good episode.. loved Rin's reaction when MC-kun drank the can.

Sweet baby Jesus and raining prophet Muhammad teddy bears raining from the sky!! Why could this eps not be longer. It would seem the vortex spirit if it really does exist chose the captain. And right at the climax you get the sense these supernatural spirits exist beyond simple human pleasures and desire and are creatures of immense power beyond comprehension.

And for a brief moment, I think the one which has attached itself to the captain showed a little bit of awakening. Before the false prophets Muhammad and Jesus came to rule the world there was many gods, and it looks like they are finally awakening! And it looks like they wont necessarily slot nicely into the human constructs which were built after there time!

I'm on edge of my seat now to see if the captain taps into her power next eps. I'm pretty sure the old ogds have greater plans than having MC drugged and taken away by heathens!!

Useless captain became useful captain (?) this episode, huh... or something. I have no idea what's going on in this show anymore. Budget Kirito falls right into the hands of the enemy through sleeping... it's super effective!

Can't complain about the moments Alice was on screen, oh yes, but I really want to see what the story is, if there's ever gonna be one... or are we going to just be getting couple clichés back and forth? I'm pretty sure next episode's gonna be all about "That Day I Got Kidnapped By A Big Tiddied Witch" and nothing more.

Oh well.

Too much time was spent on the loli captain. God I find child like characters like her annoying. At least I hope that transitioning to witchood will make her more useful.

Their new mission though has to be far the riskiest one. Meanwhile looks like royal selection is also here for the Nebulis. To think falling into the vortex would turn Mismis into a witch. Still the loyalty of Iska and his friends to their captain really is impressive. The insight into both Alice and Iska's inner thoughts as they reflect on their respective homelands though sure was insightful. In this war the soldiers and mages are just as much victims of the greedy upper echelons of both powers. Capturing the queen i fear will only serve to inflame the witches especially if any harm is come to her intentional or not. Their interaction at the bench though sure was cute. It sure is rare to see Rin lose her composure but Iska's actions really was that unexpected. Overall an interesting ep that featured equal bits tension and romantic tension via Mismis's ordeal and Iska and Alice's encounter in neutral city. The capture of Iska by Alice though sure will offer Iska a new opportunity to learn more about the Nebulis and perhaps a way forward of ending the war.

So as expected, Mismis had her witch powers awakened due to falling into that vortex last episode. Interesting change. Perhaps she will have a better role now, more fitting of a captain.

Damn Iska, you didn't seem to be so dumb to just accept that drink from Rin, who has been hostile towards you from the get go.

also how do you spike a Can drink without it being opened small things like that bug the hell out of me could have just changed it to a bottle of water at least that's believable because you can reseal it

Did not expect Mismis to gain witch powers, I guess that's how they make her have more impact.

Alice is just way too cute, she picks some top tier dresses too. Loving all of her and Iska's interactions.

To be honest, I would've expected Rin to poison the can from the beginning given how much she's against Alice associating with Iska but even after I figured they would just let him lie on the bench and sleep, to think they actually kidnapped. This probably isn't going to bode well but I'm curious how it'll play out.

Ah, i really wanted Mismis to stayed her antic as a useless captain. Then, with these episode development, i might had a feeling she will be more useful with her sudden astral spirit power after entering the vortex. 'Oh well, she really became a witch! But she still couldn't controlled it, yet.' They even created that emotional scene. But its just felt cringe for me because of its clicheness. Ofc The Empire already knew the situations there, you soldier. You just grown up already with that situations! Thats where Risya announced a plan to infiltrated the Nebullis kingdom. Its may related to Mismis condition, maybe. Even with the sudden kidnapped of Iska too. Well, interesting to see how far the Emperor's direct order to surpass that situations. Even knewing the fact that they still hide the Emperor's identity, when the opening itself already revealed her appearance, even though its only a glimpse, its really tickling me a bit.

Well, the title showed the real thing happened on these episode. I might just thinking that its not just a miscalculation for Rin. Its really a perfect timing to executed all of Alice's desire: to be closed to Iska. Lol. And ofc to succeeded the whole plan of the Emperor.

Lets see if all of it will become a truth. I just hope Mismis to be a useless captain again as the only funny elements appeared over these cliche fights show between two countries.

Alice literally just went against everything she believed in...I'm sorry but she should have been WAY more pissed off at Rin for doing what she did in a neutral city. Then they make a scene and just walk away? What is this? I felt everything up to this was reasonable development but I am not too fond of this.

Also Alice seeing Mismis is a Witch but just smiling at the end...again weird.

I love Alice but I actually disliked her for how non-nonchalant she was during the LITERAL KIDNAPPING! Like Iska just got drugged and her response is "Rin what are you doing?" Just so stupid.

Just goes to show though that the Higher ups including the Emperor know everything. Makes me wonder if Rin is actually a Spy from the Empire.

Yeah. That's exactly how I feel.

I like these Romeo and Juliet stories enough to keep on watching this show in spite of all the flaws it has. But this time, I feel they've really dropped the ball.

Alice's reaction definitely goes against her character. And for no reason, they suddenly agree it's a good idea to straight up kidnap someone in a neutral zone. Then, they make the brillant decision not to clear things up when Mismis appears.

Everything was so out of character and convenient. They've crossed lines no author should ever consider crossing imo. It's not even that hard to edit a story like this here and there just to make that situation more plausible. What a horrible way to move the plot forward.

Man wtf bro. Rin you piece of shit. I was really suspicious right when Iska said it smelled weird. I knew she drugged it, but wondered why she was shocked when he drank it. Iska is a little too trusting for his skill.

Why'd Alice go with kidnapping him smh, she isn't the type of person to do that. Especially in neutral city. I feel she should've been way more angry if anything. Her whole character just took a full 180.

Only thing keeping me hooked with this show is the opening and Romeo Juliet romance aspect.

Iska will probably escape somehow. With the help of the pink girl he saved they mentioned in the beginning of the show? That's my little guess.

Iska and Alice met again. Iska surely trusts Alice and Rin, but Rin drugged Iska's drink. I wonder what will they do to Iska. Held him captive forever?

I knew that Mismis will become a witch from the last episode. Mismis come from supporting character to one of the important characters in this series. So Iska will be in Alice's nation next week, doesn't it means that we will see the girl that Iska had saved in the first episode? Man, I really cant wait to see the next week episode.

Pretty good episode, I feel bad for Mismis. I was hoping Iska would ask Alice for help regarding Mismis Astral mark thing. Did not expect a kidnapping lmao, though I am very interested in what's gonna happen next.

Risya didn't look bothered at all when Iska got kidnapped, in fact she's exuding "All according to keikaku" energy. Though I wonder, why didn't Alice just clear up the confusion with Mismis. Well, explaining that Rin drugged Iska is not really a good thing lmao. Welp, we'll see I am excited for next episode.

I was struggling throughout this episode REAL HARD, I feel like I'm coasting for 24 minutes of annoying cringe. Not only do I need to deal with the "Captain" being really mid in her actions, I also need to deal with the "not so sincere that it's annoying" need for Alice to see Iska, which is making me mad.

Also Rin um, you messed up. Now both sides are really going to war, and with Mismis finally awakening her witch powers, the pieces in action will be really messy. I know I'm coming back for next episode to see what happens, but temporarily, I'll DROP this show for now for being so messy in its story and the characters being so meh at best.

Somehow empire making a quite impposible mission to Iska's squad, kidnapping the Nebulis Queen.

haha..poor Mismis she's always getting bad omen, because of vortex now he accidentally become a witch, it'll be bad if the empire know it.

After tiring 3 day of llooking for Iska ,finally Alice found him in the bench at the Neutral city, by the look and her approach she's like flirting and seducing him to tell his whole problem.

Somehow Rin really want to end their meeting these days and giving him a drink with sleeping medicine in it. confuse of the condition Alice decide to take Iska.. a.k.a kidnap him. To make the matter worse they spotted by Mismis and somehow she almost revealed her witch power in the neutral city.

I assumed by the time Iska news of getting kidnapped spread off, that was exactly the empire plan to inflitirate the Nebulis, well it seems Rin plan backfired, i wonder how the outcome of this mess..
