Beautiful.
The chapter was fun, but the most important part of the chapter was the second part. How Alice arrives at the mansion and supports the Duke even though he tells her to leave because of the curse, but she still wants to be by his side. And everything after that(plus the little flashback) was really nice.
I loved this chapter, Alice <3!

I loved the backstory, so sad yet so beautiful. By the way, what's the reason Bocchan got cursed?

Alice sure is an incredibly patient and good-natured person.

You could read this as dressed up wish fulfillment if you look at it cynically but it's undeniably dressed well

The episode introductory scene changed along with its dialogue. I think this new one is better and more impressively done visually. It's something that'd be very hard to pull off in 2D drawing so glad they took advantage of the CGI.

So we finally get proper lines from the younger brother Walther. Looks like he has insecurity being the 2nd and younger sibling and unlike Viola he has no respect for his older brother. It's hard to take him seriously. I wouldn't mind if Bocchan loses his nobility or something but I probably wouldn't want Walther to be the head of the house.

The chemistry between Bocchan and Alice have been going so strong since episode 1 that I simply forgot about their introduction in the villa. It's not something that I'd say was necessary but I'm very happy they did this in a flashback. We got to see so much of their interactions in like 7 episodes that a backstory gives you a different perspective, granted it being fairly basic and predictable.

The best episode so far for me. Still not a fan of the animation, does not emote as much emotion imo, but that's how I feel. This episode tho was more emotional connective to me. Plus downplaying or back seating the sexual teasing that has riddled the show, that has always made me step back from investing

Loved the face Walter made after being called "secondborn son" at the beginning lol

Also lost it when he started crawling around the floor like a cockroach and when he spasmed like a jackhammer

I don't know why I find this character so funny
But I'll always love the manga/anime trope of introducing new characters as the season progresses



The second half was tastefully heart wrenching. REALLY nice to see an angsty/angry/rebellious side to the Duke, and Alice with a saddened teary look. This show really adds a diverse palette of emotions to the two MCs. And the meaningful scenes are never forced.

I didn't like the first two episodes, but since then this show has found its footing and is quite stellar.

Interesting episode about the past of Alice and how she got to be his maid. Guess their attraction to each other makes sense.

The second part of this episode really got my attention, it was much better than everything else so far, I was binging the show just for enjoying it, nothing special, but this episode was really GOOD.

They have a checkered past huh, It was refreshing seeing alice not be all in control and stuff at the end seeing her sad at the thought of the duke dying It makes her feel more genuine to me now & It was pretty sentimental 5/5. How does cuff know how to speak and stuff but not even the abc's? that son is an l, gets all the girls but is salty over anything 2nd from being 2nd born and not the air.

a lot of flashbacks this episode.
also alice saying her mom is dead would support the theory that she is the witch. could be that when they were kids, alice started to really like him and the mother didnt take well to that for whatever reason and cursed him.
