| Anna's mother seems like a nice person, very mature and I'm sure her daughter can learn a lot from her. This episode loves bread though and gave Josette a treat. The transition to real life parts and references were more amusing. One of those typical episodes that does a neat job at protraying character personalities. |
 |
| The child was saved and Grace's reputation is skyrocketing. And now we can look forward to a crossdressing performance and maybe a meeting with her mother. Guess next week should be nice. |
| It was nice seeing Anna's mom she seems a really nice lady. Am glad to see that they were able to save the kid from falling. |
| It's a surprise to know that Anna's mother is of noble blood, but if we think about it then it makes sense. A commoner can't have magic if it's not in the family that means her mother can also use magic. Even Kenzaburou's family is fan of him and that's cute. Hinako and her mother, Mitsuko are amusing. Fangirl segment was hilarious, when ever they are shows it always end with my smiling or laughing. |
   |
Anna was already gushing hard with just her imagination of Grace crossdressing, can't wait to see her gush for the real thing. |
| Lol I'm pretty sure graces acting when she does cross dress will be perfect... seeing as how she is a guy lol |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Funny episode, as always. Excited to meet Grace's mom, and how she would react when she sees her daughter has completely done a personality 180. Love that Hanako & her mom still think that this game is actually just a game after that episode where Hanako just dove her hands in the TV while mixing the 2 dolls for Orion's creation, lol. This is the furthest from just your average game. |
| fun episode but as there are only two episodes left i wonder how this'll end. will dad just plop out of the game world after the performance? or will the game continue longer. s2 perhaps? |

| Weekly dose of Grace and my girl Anna! This was a fun episode as usual and we got to learn about both of their mothers. Who would’ve guessed Anna’s mom had some nobility to her, guess that explains some of Anna’s magical abilities and how polite she is. Biggest shock was Grace mom being behind the cross-casting rule.. I wonder if I’m reading too deep into it or if Grace mom is meant to be the game’s writer?? Since the writer made that decision in the game and now it’s the mom.. could also just be a coincidence, but I can’t wait to see the play! “Thank you for making the pretty boys cross dress.” Ahhhh she’s so fucking real π |

| @Mainnus We got Saber reference at the far left. This show was already peak without that, now its legendary. |

| ME TOO! lol that had me cracking up. This 'games' migrations from the original plot is interesting, I still don't understand the cage thing. Maybe the villainess didn't want to be that way, being forced by the writer, and wanted to vicariously live through a different option? |
 |
| Are we finally getting that scene in the OP?! interesting, but I'm not fond of it. But Anna dressed in her casual outfit is cute. |
| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| i'd definitely love to see all the boys cross-dress & see how they perform during the festival lol but darn. anna needs to tone down her fangirling & try not to let strangers know stuff about grace lol |
       |
| Little maid is chomping on that bread is as cute as ever. |
 |
| It wouldn’t be a villainess anime without crossdressing, at least I can think of one other that did it atm lol, being “I’m In Love With The Villainess”, fun idea tho that will surely make for some great moments, Anna’s imagination of a crossdressing Grace was already awesome, although to Kenzaburou within Grace it will just be dressing appropriately for once lol. It’s very interesting that Grace’s mom came up with the crossdressing rule originally tho, and this coincides with the creator of the game, is there something there or what? Not sure if we’ll find out in this season if the story isn’t wrapping up by episode 12. Also the stuff at Anna’s hometown was nice, I liked seeing Anna become so beloved by the townsfolk along with Grace who now has even more people backing up the queen thing lol, the way they saved that kid was cool too. But there’s definitely more than meets the eye with Anna’s mom, respect to Kenzaburou for not prying but her potentially noble background is interesting, another mystery we may or may not learn before the show ends. |
| I recognized Shin-chan's butt shaking silhouette during Kenzaburou's rant but I had to look up what the other two silhouettes were representing. Turns out that they're both characters from variety comedy shows that aired throughout the 80s (γΏγ±γ‘γγγγ³ and γͺγ¬γγ‘γ²γγγγζ). |
I love the mom...a woman after my own heart ππ and I love the daughter...both of them together are hilarious, the anime wouldn't be the same without them.  Also Grace looks awesome in the Rose of Versailles homage outfit! Idk if it is supposed be based off of that but it looks very similar  |

| Honestly, I'm very curious to know what Anna's mother's lineage hides. If she really is from some noble family that would explain why Anna is so talented with magic despite being a commoner. Time to cross-dress! When they saw Lucas, I think they winked at Candy. |
 |
| Josette eating that choco cornet was a really cute sight. Hinako and her mother's reactions were hilarious this episode. "ME TOO!" xD Really looking forward to this "School" Festival. I have been wanting to see Grace in that "Rose of Versailles" outfit the moment it was teased in the OP. |
| That play plotline reminds me of the Prince and the Pauper. Does anything else closer come to mind for anyone? |
| LOL @ the Dad doing his take on the "censorships" in TV and Anime shows Which is actually true. Every country in the world has a censorship they go by. Japan has some censorship with certain character styles, and recently more and more series are changing character designs to fit CN and West audiences, even tho their source (manga, novel) were originally revealing designs NA EU also have some issues with revealing outfits and young characters that's generally popular in the East. China has the most censorship, from characters in revealing outfits to political (such as banning tons of series that features the West cause it promotes West ideals) . LOL @ the crossdressing. Anna's head's exploding with that. Can't wait to see what sort of crossdressing they'll actually end up with (and what play they're doing, but it seems to have a Prince in it as they mentioned) And Grace's Mom... huh... feels like she's going to be a chill type, since she came up with the cross-dressing play... that most nobles would probably reject (like they tried to reject Maid Cafe). |
| Nothing Written Here But Us Anime Bunnies *boing boing boing* |
| Inevitable cross dressing episode coming up. I wont complain, girls in suits do look superb. |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would describe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| Kenzaburou sure deduced Ana's moms big secret very quickly! That's a perceptive bureaucrat for you. Grace's mom getting better is an interesting development. No matter how that turns out, this cross dressing rule for plays she left is going to be grand. |
 |
| Cross-dressing, ha? Of course they'll cross-dress π |
 |
| It's summer vacation, and Anna is sure looking forward to having Grace at her place. Exploring Anna's commoner family deriving from a family of bakers, Grace and Josette entertains Anna's mother to a degree, but the suddenness of a child beastkin in trouble for both Anna and Grace, the former helping out and showing her chops is one thing, but to attribute the help to Grace...that is no longer the case to not impress anybody, anymore with her Elegance Cheat. Even for the campus (cultural) festival, wanting a maid cafe is not out of the way for Grace (or Kenzaburo rather), but due to special restrictions helmed on the Student Council, this adds a layer of difficulty for the villainess to exact her appropriate measures. But to expect a Kabuki or Takarazuka-esque cross-gender play based on the rule itself, Anna wants no better than to have Grace cross-dress for her MC instincts lol. We all know where this going... |
 |
| So what if Anna has the blood of a nobility? It excited me watching Anna's mother's reaction when Grace told her she must have a deep connection of nobility. Acting as if you can't tell she's lying. Furthermore, Anna's mother had knowledge about magic that townsfolk were not well aware of. Now, the game itself was not the game the daughter played before, so few parts of the game were new to them. |
 |
| crossdressing plays and maid cafes, we’re back in the typical high school slice of life trope again lol. not a bad episode tho |
| Grace got to meet Anna’s parents, and it turns out Anna’s mother was actually a noble who also has some knowledge of magic. But suddenly, the story shifted to the academy festival preparations I’m not sure why, since that part had so much potential, but maybe it’ll come up later. At first, the idea of cross-dressing didn’t seem that interesting, but once I realized Grace would be part of it, I got just as excited as Anna for it to actually happen. I really can’t wait! |
