Oh boy, a blast from the past. Komori actually handled this somewhat well but a bully from all these years coming back is a haunting sight.

Thankfully, this episode had a lot of amusing moments as usual.

Very good episode again. Things got truly serious after that crazy bitch arrived.

Poor Komari and Vill.

Another great episode. We got some Komari flashbacks too.

Also nice Halloween visual.

Milicent is clearly messed up, she belongs in a psychiatric institute with her sick mind but that's just my opinion.
Terakomari has finally made up her mind the question is will she be able to overcome her trauma and move on since that's clearly holding her back.
Hopefully she will manage to achieve something her that will help her out a lot.

Millicent is so comically evil I'm shocked there's even 1 favorite for her.

They better not try and pull some sympathy for her, cuz it seems they are going for, she already was down with murder. she bullied someone with magic to the break, made them snap, got blamed for it, and now wants revenge.

Milli is just an insecure person who’s become obsessed with the concept of death. Hope she’s taken care of in the next episode!

Good to have a third episode centered on actual plot just to remind the audience that there is one in the first place. The backstory to Terakomari and Villhaze is now explained by the introduction of Millhaze and while the details about the incident 3 years prior are still a guess at least now we know what motivates the maid to be that way. Furthermore we get a glimpse at a secret organization which Komari will inevitably have to face but first it's time to battle.

Things escalated quickly, and it was definitely the best episode of the show so far, with Milicent causing trouble in the past and present. The bullying aspect was quite shallow I'd say, but that's also because for now, Milicent as a character just exists as a comically evil character, and I'm sure she has a backstory of her own that led up to her personality being this twisted. I do hope that this all ends up being worthwhile. I'll say this though, I am quite impressed that Project No.9 was able to have an episode with a good level of animation and tense moments.

You know, based on Millicent's words and Komari's missing memories between snapping in school and waking in her bed, it's entirely possible that her subordinates were actually right and it really was Komari who went on that rampage in the school...

Same thoughts as you. She is probably very powerful but holds back unconsciously. Hopefully we will see that flashback.

sad that Millicent is a really bad person. I think she's beautiful, almost like a gacha game character.

anyway, things got serious. Vill is in danger, and Komari going to rescue her meido.

looking forward to next week! :)

What the hell is wrong with this series, every episode gets better! As someone who enjoys watching trashy anime, it's nevertheless a really pleasant surprise when a plot you though you'd be very simple with some fan service here and there, but then you get a in-depth reflection on bullying and a complex plot (I haven't seen or read anything about the source material just to clarify).
The episodes all seem too short, can't wait for the next one. This one is a 8,5

Considering the comedic tone of most of the first two episodes, this got dark a lot quicker than I expected. The tone shift feels somewhat abrupt, but not completely out of place. It was obvious things were gonna get more serious, but I didn't expect it to switch up so hard

Wow, what an episode.

This is more than your regular episode; it almost feels like half of the anime season. The past stories of both Vill and Komari related is so mind-blowing. The dialogue also revealed some secrets about Komari that show she is more than a weak/cute/funny MC. The animation is so great, especially kudos the face gesture of Millicent and the capture of the scared feelings of Komari at the dining party. Millicent shows great potential as villain who loves playing with her victims. Some anime at episode 3 sometimes still introduces the side characters, but this one straight up introducing the villain, which makes it so unique . It’s surprising that this episode comes up at really fast pace at number 3, despite how deep the storytelling was and the villain introduction now.

Easily giving 5/5 rating for this episode.

Okay something had to have happened those 3 years and why Komari cannot remember any of it, is it related to her mother's pendant? Did Komari do something that had to be covered up so much that the blame had to be put on that bitch Milicent? Not to mention the fact she was happy to be targeted adds more layers to how insane this woman is, hopefully next week provides more info on this.

What made Milicent act the way she does in the past and the present? I guess it's some kind of inferiority complex. I would sure love to know her backstory first before she gets killed :D

Fine episode, setting up a brutal beat down next week I hope. I think we've seen enough clues that our shut-in is actually a berserker, or turns into one in certain circumstances. Although, I'm not sure why she didn't during the battle where she could have been killed. I'm enjoying this and really look forward to it each week!

This episode was spoiled for me which was unfortunate but regardless of that

The backstory itself is decent if nothing new
However what ultimately is kids drama(though bloody) being this consequential to a whole kingdom is weird, it makes the whole setting feel shallow
