Well, Richard has guts to go to that castle to save Edward. In the meantime, I find Richard to be more and more of a complex character when he realizes the stakes are for his missions.

It's like everyday, he walks the line between life and death closer than any character in the show.

Warwick has Edward all cornered and ready for George to be king, while Richard is with his bodyguard Catesby. Having Edward of Lancaster escort Richard as a rouse while the true objectve being to save Edward out of his plight, he sure didn't know that he is the direct brother of the expelled king while following him along to be offered as a "high-class prostitute".

Seeing this naive Edward lead the intersex Richard along, only knowing that he looked like a girl from the outside and treading along kingdom lines to make a way for Richard to reach his older brother Edward of York by being a prostitute to save his ass, that worked subtlely.

The Duke of Birmingham saving their asses, but also staying true to his objective to remove Edward when the time is right. Warwick can't wait to get rid of Edward of York and find Richard, but with Edward of Lancaster merging hands with the Nevilles Isabelle and Anne, the reformation is complete for Henry's upheaval on the throne.

Not sure I feel of this, but slowly the puzzle pieces are falling into place...

Warwick has thrown himself firmly in the Lancaster camp by marrying Anne to Edward of Lancaster and bringing back Henry VI

Richards using their feminine parts in order to save Edward of York rather it be a hindrance it worked in their favor their plan worked perfectly. And now Edward of Lancaster is going to be king and marring Annie.

I still hope Henry is ok tho.

Warwick is in tough position. I still don't understand his superior moves. But what I understand is his loyalty.

Edward of Lancaster and Richard of York teaming up for a short amount of time was a nice breather as they spent time together (Edward pining the whole time lol)

Warwick has changed plans yet again, this time joining the Lancaster house and returning Henry VI to the throne. His daughter and Edward marrying, but they both like Richard instead

Duke of Buckingham being at the right place at the right time haha, too bad his plan to kill Edward of York now was shot down

Most confusing love triangle thing I've seen in anime.

Richard loves henry and anne, but thinks anne hates him. meanwhile henry, his son edward, and anne all love richard.

edward thinks richard is a woman. anne thinks richard is a man.
I'm not sure, but I think henry might be gay and thinks richard is a man, and may be traumatized by his wife.

I think henry relates with richard as he was troubled being gay while richard is troubled being intersex, but maybe henry thinks richard's problem was also being gay.

edward doesn't know henry is gay, but thinks his dad is after his woman. edward is now married to richard's woman, anne. both still love richard though, but no one that loves richard knows that any of the others love richard.

I wonder what will happen when/if they all learn that richard is intersex. Maybe edward and anne might be cool with it and have a polygamous thing going on.

maybe henry would accept richard anyway, as I'm assuming richard's genitals are male, so for henry, it's just a man with breasts. but then edward might murder his dad, then get mad when he finds out richard has a penis.

I don't think richard can have kids, so anne would probably reject richard.

I think edward and anne having a polygamous relationship with richard is the best outcome. they are king and queen, and richard is kinda like a concubine for both or something?

Edward and Anne married, huh? I wonder how Richard will react after hearing the news.

At this point I don't think his moves are really superior nor I believe he's a loyal subject to whatever king he's propping at any given moment.
I bet the man's ultimate goal is just to consolidate his title and make an aunthentic king once and for all.

Wait, huh? What? I am not being able to follow!! Henry's back on the throne all of a sudden? I hope they expand on this decision a bit more next episode!

For a moment, I really thought the bad wife was killed, which seemed like a bad decision. Thank god she's still alive. It would be anti-climactic if someone died while scheming without doing anything more.

The scene where Richard goes to get a bed, he has to share with many people. I liked that detail. It added historic realism.

Oh, poor Edward of Lancaster. He bought food to impress Richard, but Richard gave it to another guy!

Edward, I am not a fan of his actions, but I feel bad for him. His dad doesn't show him enough love, and his mother only cares about what she can get from him. And now, he has to marry a woman he has no feelings for.

Duke of Buckingham really wants Richard to be king. lol (But, how did he get there?)

I also feel bad for George. He was given so much hope, only for it all to be taken away.

I am kind of shipping Richard and Catesby. Catesby is the best boy here! lol

I actually feel bad for Edward of Lancaster, he's simping so hard for Richard, yet Richard pines for his father. Plus, Richard suddenly sleeps in that room and Catesby uses his hand right beside Richard and said pardon me lol, it was interesting how Richard thought of Henry when being embraced by Catesby.

And frankly seeing Richard deal with all this interest while trying to maintain his dignity and self-identity is consistently entertaining. Looking forward to next episode.

I know what is going to happen because history, but wow I cannot help but be in the camp of wishing that Richard would just abandon all these truoblemakers and drama queens and run off with Catesby.

Okay, I don't think I will drop this. At this point I became able to differentiate among the tons of blonde bijin male characters who all look to be of the same age. Like really, how can Edward be the son of Henry, when they both look the same age. Though, maturity-wise they are different for sure. Anyway, the story itself is full of twists. I guess the manga is better than the anime adaptation because of the tremendous difference between the scores. Not sure if I'll read that though. I like that it's based on a historical event and real people though. I'm rooting for Henry and Richard as a couple though, I guess it will never happen anyway. And the first and maybe last female character who is actually nice remains Anne. It's funny that she marries Edward and they both secretly love (?) Richard. Anyway, yes, I'll stick to the anime to see how the story goes.

Richard harem :p He owns the hearts of Henry, Edward of Lancaster, Anne, Catesby, Buckingham.

It was fun that Richard and Edward of Lancaster teamed up to save King Edward. I didn't expect Richard to kiss his brother to shut him up!

i feel like i'm slowly warming up to the anime adaptation, even though it still doesn't hold a candle to the source material. things are heating up and starting to get complicated now. it seems like george has made the wrong choice in betraying edward 👀 and the romance... edward lancaster thinks richard is a girl and loves him, however richard is not only Not a girl but is arguably in love with edward's dad henry- who probably isn't pleased to be back on the throne. i feel bad for anne, she's really innocent and caring and her falling out with richard was really an obnoxious misunderstanding, but now she's married to someone else... (who is also in love with richard. lol.) expected the richard making out with edward scene but still hated that 😮‍💨 usually the unnecessary censoring gets my goat a little bit, but i'm glad i didn't have to look at that. also good for buckingham, that sly little man. looking forward to seeing if he puts his money where his mouth is as far as becoming richard's kingmaker in the future...

so true, shout-out to my man catesby !! he's been by richard's side since DAY 1, knows richard's true self, and continues to be loyal and supportive even beyond what royal customs dictate. i think richard ought to be appreciating him a little bit more. catesby's my vote for the vip of the last couple episodes 👍

Henry son is so cute in this episode. He truly love a 'tough' women. But I thought they already meet before.... how come they act like they doesn't know each other status?......
Poor Anne... She misunderstood by Richard, and now she is married with the 'enemy' side prince. They all are having their hard life moment.
