"As my final request, may I knock that bitch on her ass?"

holy shit

oh look at all these evil assholes in the OP who are gonna get punched

"Ever since I was a child, there was nothing I loved more than clobbering others"

She's been nice for the last 10 years

And she's tired of it

She wants to go apeshit

Judging from everything I have seen from others she is the most deserving of going apeshit

"You're mocking me with your internal monologue, aren't you!?"
"Surely not, your highness."

when success within the rules of society becomes impossible you are set free

First prince seems like less of a tool

I don't trust him

Do you know who Scarlet reminds me of?

Just her very understated way of mocking her fiance

a bit

i haven't read the manga in ages i should catch up

I've never heard of this

before today

Scarlet is now #2 in this school

behind prince Julius

She suspects it was because of favoritism

He confirmed it

oh no

everyone assumes Scarlet only got back into 1st place because Julius let her

Julius stop putting the moves on her

she will destroy you

BERENEZZA DOWN FOR THE COUNT

"Is there anyone who can stand against her!?" No

"PROTECT ME YOU CAN HAVE MY WIFE"

"Hey slave trading is illegal in this kingdom! Don't talk about it in public!"

all this in a ballroom gown

Julius walking in here completely unconcerned like he isn't ALSO in grave danger

"I feel SO much better!"

fucking incredible

I'll watch another episode of that

this credit song is a jam

"May I Offer You the Taste of My Fist as the Ladylike Thing to Do?"

whups over she goes

blew through all her stamina?

Used to much of Chronoa's power

what's that mean

"Promise you'll never hit anyone again"
"I cannot do that"

don't threaten me with a good time

Julius is getting punched

eventually

Not for a while

but eventually

Sigurd just had a brush with death

blessed by the god of time?

"I have decided. I will now kick the ass of Lord Godowin"

"There is no time to lose!"

Turns out putting slave crests on your spies does not engender in them a sense of loyalty

Julius: /ten minutes of schmaltz about being a good king
Scarlet: "And the REAL reason?"
Julius: "This whole thing sounds REALLY funny"

Julius has some Jinshi energy to him

I can see it

"I Considered a Negotiated Resolution, but May I Biff and Pow Those Noblemen Instead?" the episode titles are a lot

in the best way

They do a phenomenal job at catching the subtleties of her expressions

yeah like

when Julius says that she shows everything on her face

he's absolutely right

her face doesn't shout it

but it's there if you look

Julius is growing on me

like

he sucks

but on purpose

but in a fun way

I think Jinshi would immediately hate him

But in the way where they constantly smile at each other with closed eyes

like so

dammit

PUNCH HIM

An A Rank Adventurer

great

oh I was reading this one for a while but I ended up dropping it

I really hated Julius so...

phainein: i have to admit, you, of ALL people, hating julius, does put me on guard

I’m amused by it so far but I could see Julius starting to grate really bad depending on where they go with him

it was a couple years ago so I don't remember exactly what I disliked so much but I do remember it grating on me that he was being obviously set up at the Superior love interest even though he came off basically exactly as condescending and objectifying as her old fiance

yeah that kinda irked me too but like. I figure they'll start to wring some character development out of him and focus on how he's fucking up too

you would think
