| Second episode streamed from Anime Prime Japan today. Raw is out. But damn, Scarlett again is targeted, this time even by an assassin. Also, the prime minister is behind the scenes with some of the major events so far. Scarlett's punch defintiely landed her into trouble though, to no one's surprise. What a badass though. Just from these two episodes alone, Scarlett shows that she's not someone that gets pushed around. Julius could also be someone to keep an eye on. |

| Amazon Prime Video Early Streaming. Scarlet's brutal violent wave of her villainess "tragedy" definitely set both Prince Julius and her older brother Leo seeing what had transpired, though it's the princess herself who literally hard-carries the entire fakery in the ballroom to the point of overusing her power of Chronoa, the God of Time's power and falling unconscious for 3 days. From the literate morning, Scarlet getting assassinated in broad daylight from a maid, the annulment of her engagement really caused quite a stir within the Kingdom of Pallistan, recognizing that the Mad Dog Noblewoman is a force to be reckoned with. However, that's not the end of the story, as the Crown Investigatory Office that was founded with Leo in charge, and needing to deal with the remaining remnants of Kyle's faction, his once-servant of Sigura Forgrave joining her to deal with Prime Minister Godwin Bene Carmine, plus the imposter maid of beastman slave Nanaka to reverse and release him from his slavery. And if anything, Scarlet is not privy to taking down corrupt nobles, and whoever it is, she's going to beat the living ass crap out of them. Godwin's slave auction which both Scarlet and Nanaka attends, Julius has a reason to always follow her for his amusement, and be it in the slums or wherever, Scarlet's name recognition enough sure puts everyone on guard once they know on her. Julius at least acts on his tact, and infiltrating the slave auction for the trio, is a journey worth pulverizing for. A jam-packed premiere that doesn't slow down its narrative, and we're only barely scratching the surface of what this show has to offer. Regardless, more is the word we want to see. |

| @EcchiGodMamster She smacks a noblewomen in EP1, and a trap maid in EP2. I would not call them fights, though, just one punch each. This is my favorite new show of the season so far. Comedy a plenty. She picks up a sidekick, a beastkin boy with cross dressing talent. "And what's the real reason?" "Class begins now and you'll pay full tuition" Sounds much like the welcome to one of my Evil Academies. "The Lady of Beatings!" Yep, gonna have to recruit her, and not just as an Evil Lieutenant. Clearly General and Wife quality. "Cetainly not." "Thought so." "And it is hilarious." I concur "Scarlett, its sad you presume there were talents beyond my reach." Spoken like an Evil Overlord. Kyle replacement finance show prominently in the ED. Is she going to be some sort of hidden villain? |

| Lord Cruelty V "But my Dreams they're not as empty, as my conscience seems to be" |
| Well this had potential, but devolved into a selfish unwise person, just beating up anyone they wanted for their own pleasure in a fit of emotional rage, without an clue about who or what she was doing to whom, instead of doing the entire kingdom a favor, by working to take down the entire faction of the second prince, making her in fact a beast, like the first prince had said in this episode, and therefore, if this anime follows the rules of most kingdoms, she should be in prisoned and put to death, but "because anime logic" prevails, by some anime miracle, she will escape her destined fate, so predictable and lame. |
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating. |

| I love how regal all the nobility sounds, it's pretty great that Scarlet keeps up the poise even when dishing out insults and curse words. The king certainly did a job raising his kids. Julius is leagues better than Kyle, but his fascination with viewing Scarlet as a plaything rather than a lady has me worried if he'll remain unpunched by the end of this season. Her blessing granting her control over time is extraordinary. That drawback to her using it is quite fitting. |
 |
| These 2 first episodes were really fun, Badass Female MC but with an also strong partner, cool power couple and Leo seems like a nice guy too, he loves his sister. Scarlet making the world a better place one punch at a time. |
| yeah this show is going to be fun. scarlet dealing out punches all those good guy MCs have held back |

| I was wondering why this felt so unbelievably rushed but turns out I watched episode 2 before episode 1 on accident, its been a while since a seasonal show I watched dropped multiple episodes at once so I guess I just didn't think when clicking the episode. But my opinion of the shows gone up after properly watching the first 2 episodes, essentially its just crashout the anime |
| All her problem will be solved through her fists and new friends are made... also with her fists. She even got another new nickname to be added to her profile. I wonder how many more we'll get if any. |
| no idea how but " hianime " got the second episode on 4th october 2025 ( idk if 2 episodes were to air on the same day or not but ) welp for the episode it was great ! |

| Aside of Asami Seto playing her role pitch perfect, sadly this show is nothing more than slopy written revenge porn + generic reverse harem. |
| Can't lie, I love Julius. He seems to always laugh at the same things I do and his interactions with Scarlet are great. I wonder what his character will be like during the series though, he isn't exactly a straight forward character, so he probably has some sort of secret agenda. |

| This episode reminds me of why I'm starting to hate 99% of anime this past decade. This anime (the author precisly) could have made a "girlboss" and "badass" type of character, even archetypically. But no? Of course not. She'd just playing into the hands of blank slopy ass-written male characters (the blondie prince and others to come) even when she takes a decision to do something on her own. Even 2025 there's barely any anime with a female main character who dictates the pace of the show by her own decisions, without having to consistenly rely on male characters who think they worth something while being to most generic male characters, and without having others consistently think they should intervene to help while they are totally not needed (despite the show forcing situations that feel fake where they are needed). Gimmick isn't an excuse here. 2025 but still no originality for better gimmicks. |
| "you can drop the formalities" "they pissed me off so I beat the living shit out of them" even the prince can't help but laugh at that lololol lol her brother is NOT amused at the new nickname! I like it though! "it's both of you. you both share the blame" WHY DON'T YOU TELL US HOW YOU REALLY FEEL, HMM? lolololol lol the first prince is wholely amused by this whole situation and I honestly love him for it, because so am I lololol lol ofc first prince was spying on her! I do like that beastkin tho! hopefully he'll serve our MC for a while! lol yet another nickname and the prince is still laughing and I love him for it lolol whew, for a sec I thought they were suggesting pretending to be selling the beastkin, but seems they were just asking him for advice! can't wait for the next episode! |
| Sometimes you just need to scream into the void. That said, AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH PLEASE GIVE ME FANTASY ANIME RECS!!! I'M PRETTY MUCH OUT ON CRUNCHYROLL AND I'M BORED!!! Streaming services I have: Crunchyroll (this is the main one I use for anime and I've pretty much exhausted my options there), Netflix, Disney+ (including Hulu), Peacock, Paramount+, HBO Max, Apple TV+, Amazon Prime |
| I always like a good double premiere, and this show is 13 episodes so it won’t end much earlier than everything else because of it. We got a bit of world building in this one paired with Scarlet’s throwdowns, the “blessings” thing helps explain why Scarlet is so damn strong, she’s basically a superhuman thanks to the time god’s blessing, but apparently there are drawbacks to it so she’s not overpowered, I’m down with that, I do enjoy seeing her zoom around while beating up chumps after all lol. We were also introduced to Nanaka, he had me fooled at first but he is indeed a femboy, and also a beast person, interesting combo, and with Scarlet releasing him from slavery, she’s now got a little helper, his reactions to Scarlet were pretty funny so I’m happy with his addition. And now the name of the game is getting revenge on the Prime Minister for attempting to have Scarlet killed, he’s a bit of a generic villain but I’m sure it’ll be fun to watch Scarlet deck him in the schnoz. We also got more Julius in this one, looks like he’s gonna be really prominent so I’m happy about that, and although his “real reason” for following Scarlet is entertainment (I can’t blame him lol), I think there is some truth about his initial reasoning as well, I’m sure he’ll be a great king if he’s got an outlook like that. |
| "They pissed me off, so I beat the living shit out of them." Scarlet is just amazing. I love these nicknames Scarlet is receiving. |
 |
| Surprisingly good lore, great fights, funny, I'm really enjoying this. |
| another ONE JOKE generic villainess anime... this season is so fucking bad holy shit. at least the ED theme is decent. |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| First two minutes of ep 1: "Wow, isn't that punch a little excessive?" When the punch finally lands: "Yeah, fuck that wench, kick her ass" Now: "What a distinguish way to be violent against people" Indeed, in a rare instance of me actually reading the material before the adaptation comes out, this is one I'd been looking forward to watching for a while. While the animation is simply ok I will say that the hits feel just as satifying as when they did upon reading. The op is so-so but the ed song in particular is pretty good. I wonder up to what part they'll be able to adapt. |

| Didn’t mention it earlier, but yeah, two back-to-back solid Kazuya Sakamoto SBs here were a nice touch. You can definitely see the production’s limits in the stop-and-go pacing of the action, but the drawings are strong and the comedy still lands. They’re working well within their scope, and the fact that episodes are being completed well ahead of schedule is just icing on the cake. Good stuff all around. |
 |
| Decent episode, although it’s pretty obvious what’s going to happen next. Nanaka gives Julius and Scarlet one or more ideas on how to infiltrate the auction Godwin will be attending. They all manage to get inside, and then Scarlet punches Godwin. All's well that ends well. I AM excited to see that though. |
| MC getting dumped in front of everyone and Prince no longer wants to marry her.. didn’t we literally just get this premise in a villainess show like two seasons ago I’m blanking on the name rn lol? Unlike every other villainess series before her, Scarlet isn’t just going to take things lying down. She fights back and beats the shit out of everyone and it’s so satisfying. I couldn’t get thru 2 minutes of that Kyle flashback in the first episode without wanting to see him brutally killed, while we haven’t got there yet, Scarlet taking out the nobles at the party and tearing down Kyle’s slave trading operation is a good start. The absolute audacity of the goon in episode 2 who thought he could get off with just apologizing after he talked all that shit to scarlet lol. Just seeing her completely dominate and destroy all these sexist and gross dudes is so fun. Production values are amazing, it’s funny, scarlet’s OP af and there’s a political conspiracy to unravel? This has everything I want in my villainess show. Scarlet might have the deadliest face card this season, too, oh my god she’s fine as fuck. Girl who can kick my ass PLEASE lord 🙏🏾 |
