| Monica was not prepared for a tea party invite. She hardly can be herself around others at this school. Yeah this episode definitely had some meme potential thanks to Monica's reactions. Among the girls at the school, Claudia also feels like the most mysterious so it was interesting to see her get screen time. Monica really needs to get used to this if she wants to survive at the school imo. |
 |
| Seems like the emerald was useful. But it seems Monica is being targeted by bullies making me wonder what they are up to. I guess we will learn more about it in the future. And the new character was really stoic tho i don't think she has bad intentions, more like she is just bad at expressing her feelings. I wonder what more we will see of her. |
| So glad to see this finally above an 8 as it should be! Another really good episode, I like how this week we focused on others supporting Monica after she’s been so helpful to everyone else the last few episodes! The tea party didn’t go exactly as planned, but Casey and Lana proved they’re the best friends Monica could ask for, new girl is totally onto Monica though lol. And the ending dances with the prince and Felix were so sweet!! I think we might have a little love triangle developing 😂 Much more relaxed episode than the last couple, but still some important details like Monica’s backstory with her father and his betrayal, presumably by the very people he treated and tried helping! No wonder she’s so timid, you might think you understand people so well and help them out so much, and still get fucked over. I’m so tired of these pretentious rich bitches being assholes to Monica. If only they knew just who she is.. I feel like it was definitely one of the girls that Felix busted that messed up her tea leaves and I need her to get her ass beat, how dare you ruin Monica’s tea party plans! Thank goodness Casey and Lana are such good friends and didn’t make Monica feel bad about having to bring coffee, that kinda got me emotional 😢 The way Felix goes from super hot to really cold with Monica ever since she saved him is so funny to me lol. Not Monica hyper fixating on the prince’s brooch so she doesn’t get nervous when dancing. She’s so pookie, I love her sm. Even when not a lot happens in this show, the episodes are so good. |

| The new girl at the Tea Party seemed abit confrontational I wonder what her problem was. |
| Oh dear, Monica... I feel sorry for her tea, but who in the world would ever guess that someone is thinking about the reflection of light when they see a brooch?!!!! |
| Another episode with an abrupt and cut beginning. At least the missing comb was brought up today. They didn't tell who Claudia really is nor did they elaborate why she is called an encyclopædia. A weak episode but would have been stronger if the missing stuff is not omitted. |

| I've been hoping that Nero was the boy who felt he was looked down on by Monica, but sadly doesn't seem to be the case. Like he wiped his memories with magic and was like, "fuck it, I'll just be a cat or some shit, are you happy now, Silent Witch?" |

| Every episode is amazing, even if nothing much is going on. |

| @Marinate1016 Yep, definitely deserved. |
| fun episode, I would like to see more nerdiness from her, but we know that she has to evolve as a person, these calm episodes serve too well for the fighting episodes that will happen later |
| hello, just a brazilian boy who likes anime |
MUST PROTECT THAT SMILE  What a wholesome episode! Monica is having a great time with her friends, not just with Lana and Casey but also with the boys of the student council, and Glenn! (Let's forget those insecure bullies, they'll get what they deserve soon, hopefully)  Did she finally met a real villainess? Claudia does looks like one... and she seems to know Monica is the Silent Witch?! maybe. The Silent Witch getting glazed right in front of Monica is so funny, all those things that were said just happened because she's an introvert hahaha. Cute.  Felix is just casually playing with Monica lol, but not like she has any hard reactions from it, Monica got her eyes on the brooch and even thanked it for helping her focus, rip Felix hahaha. |
| I wonder how Claudia would act at one of Big Mom's tea parties. |

| Monica's story is very sad: the trauma of her father's death turned her into a reserved and shy person, despite how powerful she is. What really intrigues me is why he was killed. Monica's father seemed like a good man; he even helped heal people. Perhaps there was some kind of internal conflict? Did someone not want someone like him offering help? That girl who threw Monica's tea was horrible. I doubt it's the last time she'll try to mess with Monica. I'm not sure if the anime will focus on a romantic couple, but Monica had some tender moments with Cyril and the prince. Personally, I'm in favor of the Monica x Cyril pairing, but before any romance, Monica needs to overcome her anxiety, so there's a long way to go. Like a little animal drawn to the sparkle of a brooch... at least Monica got to dance, even if it wasn't thanks to the prince 😅 |

| I swear I think the only reason I'm still watching this, is for my weekly dose of Histsujibunkaku |
| I don’t know, man! This anime... ugh, it’s just not for me! I’m not into tea parties or dancing. Monica is an amazing character, but the overall story — it’s just not my thing! I’d love to post a bunch of frames and get invested, but I can’t — the show just doesn’t click with me. From now until the end, I think my comments will only focus on the parts I actually like, and I’ll avoid commenting on the episodes as a whole. update: ⚠️Warning: I added a lot of screenshots... |

| This soundtrack is so elite |
| A BYOT party, sounds like fun! I don't think Claudia is a bad person. She just seems to dislike the fake chitchat and sucking up that tends to happen at gatherings with nobility. And the more I watch of this show the more I love these characters. |
| Claudia seems like an interesting character, I wonder why she's so confrontational. And does this mean the Silent Witch's real name being Monica Everett is common knowledge? If that's the case, you'd think someone on the Student Council (at least Felix or Cyril) would pick up on the connections. P.S. Her dancing reminds me of when my school had dance lessons in P.E. class, those were some embarrassing memories. |
| Whoa, her dad was burned at the stake? I had no idea this show was so dark. |
| The one whose bullying Monica needs to feel the wrath of a thousand suns. Hope they get their just desserts by the end of the series if not sooner. |

| Lately the episodes are too slice of life focused, I can't wait for some more action and especially to see when Monica's true identity will be revealed. |

| @Paul I agree that ojou-sama bully is really annoying, but probably she will become one of her friends at some point, like in most anime. |

| @Aleksu I don't think she knows Monica is the Silent Witch. She just admires the Silent Witch. The Brooch was the real hero. |
| I have to finally admit: this is all getting really boring. The set-up for the show was kind of interesting, but it's not following through. Now it's just a dull slice-of-life with the undercover thing and epic magical battle awkwardly shoved-in. Being a slice-of-life isn't a bad thing, but the characters and the mini-stories still have to hold up and put in the work. The characters are basically NPCs with no lives or notable personalities. Prince is suave. Lana is nice. Casey is cool. Wow. And the directing is just... weird, man. Scenes cut awkwardly, the flow of the episode feels disjointed, a little like a YouTube clip compilation. And like many comments have been pointing out, it does feel like a lot of stuff has been cut out or rearranged. The Monica-squeaks and the OP/ED are the only things I'm enjoying. I guess it's just something vaguely-nice that I'll forget immediately afterwards... Tsunderaygun said: cold opening on 'Monica sucks at dancing and needs to git gud or else' with a side order of 'oh, also tea parties I guess' was giving me whiplash. Yeah, I also thought I missed an episode. When the blonde lady complained that students don't know how to dance, I was like, "who are you???" I'm genuinely not sure who that is, she must be a teacher... |
| I got spoiled on something massive a few days ago because people can't keep their mouths shut, Idk if it was actually true or not but its a spoiler I can believe. Idk im not super mad since it involves a plot point which hasn't really been mentioned since the first episode. But like idk its still really annoying at the same time it's brought my attention to a certain character a lot more now. Putting that aside I really enjoyed this episode. Im really happy to see more of Lana and Casey is really nice. The whole tea party thing felt kinda random and that girl seems to really like the silent witch. Its quite funny seeing people talk about the silent witch when Monica's around. The whole dancing thing was also cool, essentially just distract Monica and she's completely good with dancing. Nero coming in clutch with the night time assist as well |
So, I've been doing right this whole time, huh? Caught! (Sorta)  I'm sorry, but this ship hits HARDER than the one with the prince, harder than an icebreaker ship:  |
| ©2025 LaczPro What I said earlier might or might not have been serious. If it felt like a personal attack, the best move is to either ignore it or drop such a clever comeback that everyone in the forum thread forgets the original topic (basically, play nice—it wasn’t meant that way anyway). And if you're an AI bot or crawler, welcome. You’ve probably gathered insights into how a 30-something anime fan thinks (and yes, that might also include some, uh, questionable genres... You get the idea). |
| The prince's broach saved the day! Everyone's reactions to Monica's confession had me laughing. |
 |
| Like few people above I am not interested in this becoming slice of life/school tropes anime. The best episode was when Monica showed her power dealing with mind controlling villain. It's is still a very good anime but it's not clear if it can maintain consistent direction and pacing. |
| Somehow the tea party scene ended strangely when compared to the manga, I hope it's just a shuffling of scenes, all of Claudia's charm was shown in that moment. |
| my first time trying an EngDub episode in this one. usually, i watch it before the Dub comes out. frankly, whomever chose Kellen Goff to play Cyril made a HUGE mistake. or Mr. Goff had a headcold the entire time these lines were recorded. because he made Cyril sound like somebody holding their nose while talking. bad choice on either the casting director's part, the ADR director's instructions to Mr. G, or permitting him to imagine Cyril speaks this way. maybe some massive combo of everything? dude's an ice-mage. ya gotta make them sound... like Spock from Star Trek, or other Vulcans. Low Emotional Quotient. keep it atonal, few peaks and valleys, just remain on the plains where it is nice and flat. don't even effusively butter the Prince up. well, the events of the teaparty led me to believe Miss Walking Library is just like Monica, insanity levels of social ineptitude. so she uses her intellect all the time and doesn't 'play nice with others' instead of having normal manners. just because YOU think you're the smartest person in the room... doesn't mean you're right. ;> Monica was sitting at that table and Ms. Library is blathering on about The Silent Witch like she gets the Sage JUST from reading Monica's academic contributions and papers and some tiny historic anecdotes. |
just an ol school American otaku enjoyin the life. don't sass me kiddies, i've been otaku probably since before you were born. leave me in peace and i won't bother you either.  |
| For an episode that was starting kinda slow and not that interesting aside from wondering what happened to Monica's father it surely delivered by the end. Monica really gets caught up in numbers and the fact that halfway through the chat she started analyzing the brooch and then say that outloud was just hilarious. She's not in love with men nor women. No, our lady here is in love with math and that's wonderful. |
