Hajinnie said: Thanks to everyone on reddit and their speculations, I could see that royalty revelation coming from a mile away. I still was surprised to see Mauve tell that to Jean directly though. On MAL it was as soon as ep2, so it was "from a mile away" too. But with source material out there, it was probable something like that would happen. |
| The hints about Jean being royalty are out from the very first episode, when someone gave some very convincing explanation of the crown symbolism in the opening credits (I still wish that was placed within spoiler tags). Even though I learned about the twist from the very beginning, I could never get used to the idea and I was half-wishing it's not the case. I can see how it's a perfect explanation why people are so interested in pulling Jean into the coup mess, but it's still a bit too soap-opera material for me... Now the least I could hope for is that Jean does NOT inherit the throne. I'd rather he continue living an easy-going life with Lotta and Nino. I don't see him giving his support to the coup at all, especially now that we see that Schwann is not that much of an idiot there's a possibility that the status quo can go on (the coup fails and the monarchy will continue). |

| I knew it! After the sight of that framework, in the previous episode, I sensed that there was something intriguing tied to essso, and now, after they showed the face of the person portrayed in photomontages, I was clear from the start the situation of sister Jean, but my eyes had not seen well, not caring of that Otus, then, to discover that he is a nobleman was a nice twist, because I had the immediacy of revelation, a revelation and I correlated many events still shrouded in mystery. Slow and measured pace to the narrative, but the intriguing thing is to see how the main character now, is an integral part of the story, being part of the advocate of them. I love how the plot, again, shows new characters and different contexts, makes dynamic history. I wonder if all the foods shown in this anime series, also exist in reality, however, I always very hungry at the end of episode. |

| Jean is royalty?! |
 |
| Oh boy, that was something I didn't see coming, he being Royal? I wonder what impact does have the coup d' etat with that revelation right now, things are getting even better right now |

| I had vague suspicions, they all blonds and Jean and his sis look a lot like the girl in the portrait, but to think it's actually true... and he's first in the line to the throne to boot... Nino is his personal guard basically since every member of the royal family seems to have one of about the same age as them attached for life, so now his mentioning that he's been watching Jean for 30 years makes sense. As well as his calling Lotta "Princess" once before and his obeying Jean's order to take Lotta to dine every night and answering it like a soldier. I'm wondering how many people know Jean is actually the crown prince. It's obvious that Jean and Lotta's parents were the 2nd princess and that personal guard of hers. They staged their deaths in a ship incident to live like ordinary people, possibly because they couldn't marry normally due to the huge difference in the social status, and had 2 children before dying in the train accident at Rokkusu's border. The mother's name was Schnee, which circumstantially proves that she was a member of the royal family because the stupid official prince's name is Schwan, so it looks like normally the royalty's names start with 'sch'. Jean and Lotta also inherited the king's love for smoking and sweets respectively. I also assume that the king has been grooming Jean to be his successor for a long time, pulling strings to make him work in Inspection dept specifically because it forces him to travel all across the country and get to know each district, their problems and their people firsthand, building his knowledge and experience to be a wise ruler. And well, it's obvious that Jean makes a much better king than that stupid prince can ever be, in any case. So now this is getting really interesting. If the show doesn't drop the ball till the end, it'll be 9/10 for me. |

| First of all, I might be missing something but why there is need for coup d'etat again? Isn't king going to retire sooner or later given his old age? Anyways, it was good episode. Everyone saw the connection coming but despite all that, it retains its interesting and mysterious trait. I love how the revelations made in the show so far wasn't made dramatic of any sort but as more calm and natural with the flow of events. |

FinalFlash18 said: The coup would occur if Schwan (the brainless prince) were to take the throne. Because he's a goddamn moron who declared that he was going to abolish a few most important government institutions including but not limited to ACCA the moment he ascended to the throne. He doesn't understand jack about the country and how delicate the balance holding it together is, and he doesn't even try to understand. That arrogant prick is absolutely incapable of ruling a country or holding it together.First of all, I might be missing something but why there is need for coup d'etat again? Isn't king going to retire sooner or later given his old age? As I understand, the king isn't going to retire until he deems Jean ready to take his place, and that moment is approaching, I guess. |

I see. I always thought it was against the current king. |

| I love how the Kororē district is basically Paris. The buildings, the subway, the cafés... Everything looks like Paris. They should just have named the district "France" or something like that. |

| So much build up, but the revelation turns out anti-climatic... I bet the one giving Nino's orders is Otus dad, his probably the landlord from their building too. |
| I'm not sure yet if that development is a good thing or not, let's see. Urge to protect smile is rising. |
 |
| there is just one question in my mind . How old is jean 33 years ago he was at least 9-10 y old now over 40 he and her sister looks like in 20s |
 |
| Jean is from the royal family, I should have seen it come. That's explain why he can't be transferred. Once again, it was very interesting. Jean and Nino interactions are great |
| If anything happens to the prince then Magi will share the same fate. Poor kid. I got scared for the King's life when Schwan stood next to him and asked him which painting was his favorite. That girl in the paining looks A LOT like Lotta. OMG. Maybe that's why the prince is interested in her. Rail lowkey trying to photobomb all of Lotta's pictures lol Jean and Lotta are royalty! D: No wonder the prince is interested. He might kill them now TT__TT |
| 臭い- |
| wow! Jean Otus is the successor to the throne!?!? 4/5. |
 |
| So as I expected after the first few episodes Nino actually works for several people. I expected it in a different way though. Jean and his sister are the children of the girl in the picture the current king is always watching. So Jean is the rightful heir to the throne and Nino is Jeans "guard", right? It'd explain why he is watching him for 30 years already(while Jean thinks they know each other since highschool). Now I'm not sure who made Nino follow him but it is either Abend, the guard that disappeared, or a supporter of the king I think. The whole story just became even more interesting! I hope so much that the brat won't become the next king... |

| I never even thought, let alone suspected this kind of twist until this episode when the portrait of the 2nd princess was shown. Oooohhhh~ I bet the owner of the ritzy building Lotta is managing is the king or that Privy Council president guy. As for Nino, I suppose he was assigned to guard Jean and Lotta after the 2nd princess and her guard ran off and died. |

| Whoa Jean is royalty! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| I KNEW IT!!!! I frigging knew Jean was royal blood!!!I could smell it all over since episode 6!!! The only thing I'm wondering is who is Nino working for, not Grossular but the other. It might be too soon to say is one of the other chiefs but hum hum... |
 |
| Nice episode actually, while I really can't stand the slow pacing of this series, the actual development ain't all that bad. |
 |
| Dat imouto hair down. lol at Nino's face. He has no eyes. Pretty girl in the painting. WTF! Jean is royalty? |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| Wow, Jean and Lotta are royalty. Kind of puts a puzzle piece together now, although I find it weird how even Jean didnt know becauseh he's a pretty smart guy. That boat accident 33 years ago was most likely faked. The second princess must've fell in love with the guard that was mentioned and ran off with him, and then had Jean and Lotta. They must've changed their identities, but ended up actually getting killing in the train accident. The King might know about it too, unless him asking Jean to come sit with him was just because he's a nice king or he wanted to spend time with him. Schwan finding out definitely ticked him off now that Jean is in the way of him becoming king and leading out his plans. |
| Yuuki Aoi's character is way too cute Help! xD Yeah no one suspect Jean is royalty No one Especially he and his sister are the only "commoner" that have blonde hair Except for Chief, but he's old, maybe like Jean's parents so didn't count or maybe he's related to them too? Sureeeeee :P |

| Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan i can't deal with this anymore, i know i'm being quite repetitive but for christ sake stop it with the breads and good looking cakes. (Don't stop i i love it) This is so chill. Jean is such a chill non-annoying character. How great to find MCs like this. |

| Things finally got interesting |
  . |
| What a twist about Otus being related to royal family, wanna know what's going to happen next! |
 |
| I'm actually in shock right now. Jean is part of the royal family and has more claim to the throne than the correct prince even Lotta has more claim. The prince now, of course, feels threatened. Groshular was definitely the guard Maggie was talking about. |
