Both Belzebuth and Keith try to restore the engagement between Aileen and Claude, and in fact, they did a rather better job, with Aileen receiving her dress for the ball from the Demon Lord himself. Though Almond and the beasts doing their own "Don't Leave Us" dance, is just cute and sweet lols.

It's time to face the ball for the 3rd and final time...BUT WHY THE HELL did she have to wear the duck head accessory just to cover her face lols, I'd swear the duck segments are easily the show's highlight. Sure enough, Keith taught Claude how to seduce Aileen the way he did before his amnesia, and with or without memories, he would take responsibility for leading her back to love. Feels a bit cheap just to resolve it like this, but whatever.

For Elephas, this plan does not slide with him well, and this is also true in the game's plotline to regain Claude's memories and turn him back to the Demon Lord, only to have Aileen interrupt his process, which he exhorts her with the beasts' hostage and subjecting both her and everyone else to his "poorly-acted" play. This plan, almost succeeded with Claude magically escorting them away in the nick of time, and right into an underground labyrinth where everyone holds temporarily with the right-hand man Keith to cast all demons into hiding as Acting Demon Lord.

The cat is out of the bag: Lilia begins her sortee to turn Claude into a demon with demon incense, and everyone else with it dragged into this circumstance of escape, only for Elephas to catch up with them. The only hope is that Aileen can resolve everything with the Holy Sword within her.

Intense penultimate climax here.

Aileen really the goat otome protag. She’s really been amazing in this mini arc, having to save Claude and go up against his mother, Lilia and so many other obstacles. Really proud of how she’s handled everything. Can not wait to see her get rid of elephas and lilia for good next week. But also really sad because it’s the finale :/

Please Don't Leave Me Dance, that's funny!
Oh my, all those cuties dance.
That look on everyone's faces when they saw Aileen at the ball. 🤣🤣🤣
That duck made my day. Kono Ahiru Style!
Aileen was blushing throughout.
Elephas was suspicious from the beginning.
As expected, Lilia was the one who stole Claude's memories.
Time for the Holy Sword to shine. Oh my, it's gonna be the last episode next week.

Demon dance is so cute!!!!! Awwww I'm so healed.

Aileen is born to play the villain, when she lied that she doesn't love Demon Lord is such a strong independent moment.

Belzebuth's lack of common sense always entertain me.

The demons Aileen go to the ball dance was definitely a highlight of the episode. But so much happened it was insane. Elephas turned traitor and definitely ruined a lot of things. I was kind of wondering why Aileen wasn't expecting Lilia to pull anything. I hope Claude is alright, and I hope Almond isn't truly dead.

Aileen was indeed return Claude back by the previous slap lmao

Well ofc the problem isnt easily get solved like that because theres still one more episode to be held on. So yeah, backstabber arrive to tell the truth, Almondo did a sacrifice move and things looking pretty chaotic after then. The true evil girl showed some stabby-stab move again and Aileen free fall with Elephas. I see everything escalate very quickly near the end.

One more!

Theres so much context cut out from the LN 🥲 Claude seems like he has his memories back, but he actually just trusts Beezlebuth and Keith because they fixed his chair and made him tasty tea. Talking to them he realizes its ok that hes a twisted sadist because its his personality, not because its some influence from once being the demon lord. He realizes he loves Aileen after being apart from her for a week and obsessing over her the whole time (because shes mad at him).

this pacing is so silly. just, we went from claude suddenly doing a 180 entirely on his personality out of the blue for no reason, to all of a sudden we've got a slideshow of dancing muppets, to a now a traitor holding a demon hostage, to a fancy ball where the traitor pretends to be sleeping with aileen, to claude who has no memories asking a girl he does not remember supposedly having an affair to say she loves him... the demon being killed, claude regaining his memories to then ordering the execution of aileen and all the demons to then him magicking them out.... all in the span of 15ish minutes? this is ridiculous.

also of course, aileen stole lilia's holy sword and plot armor, she has one again. this is such an absolute trainwreck. of course the hyper-contrived magical amnesia is undone instantly by not actually regaining your memories but trusting that some random people who set fire to your wardrobe are actually right.

That event had to happen for Claude to react and he was halfway there. I like more how he looks with heterochromia and poor Almendra, I hope it's not serious but at least this "sacrifice" helped him to remember his beloved Aileen again and that wretch I hope Aileen gives him a well-deserved punishment once and for all what should.

Omg how easily Claude, who was a demon king, was defeated and manipulated,

the king and queen and all the inhabitants of the kingdom were just as stupid because words without clear evidence immediately said execution, how shallow Claude's father was, lol

but yes this is a shoujo anime, sometimes a lot of ridiculous disputes trigger,

because it takes a woman's point of view, so I understand it

A bit disappointed because it feels like another rushed job however I still like the story.

Aileen getting dominated by Claude's words even if he has a handicap of memory lost, it was animated intriguingly...

I can't wait for what happens next!
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Yeah I could feel the Elephas betrayal coming lol, man just looks evil and appeared too randomly, and I sure hope Almond isn’t dead because of him, I’m betting he’s still alive but I’m down for this show getting slightly dark too. It was also nice to have those sweet Claude x Aileen moments back, even with memory loss he still has the moves lol. It’s also great that he has his memories back now, but the slippery snake that is Lilia has pulled some sneaky shit once again, I hope we see her get what’s coming next week. Then we get a bit of a cliffhanger as Aileen tumbles to the earth with Elephas, definitely excited for the finale!

And speaking of finales, it’s crazy how we’re already at the end of this show next week. I know it started earlier than the rest of this season’s shows but it’ll hurt to say goodbye all the same.

Overall great episode but seriously demonic 60 year old lady dressed in kimono with extreme high pitch voice gets over look. This grandma screams villian. I gave to much trust to Elephas. I thought he was going to betray them than kind of felt he wasn't. Oops. I just hope last episode ties it all up neatly.

Elephas being revealed like this feels kinda dumb ngl. Like did no one really think it was odd how the same night he was at the castle, Claude got stabbed and lost his memories? That feels kind of off at least to me.

Also Lillia along with the emperor and empress or whatever she is need to get messed up by the end of this. I hate them so much lol

So much was going on in this episode >.<

First off, the demons dancing were so dang cute, I cried XD The Don't Leave Us dance and the Demon Lord is Calling dances were the cutest thing I've seen in a while <3 Definitely clapped along.

Then Claude carrying Aileen off and using Keith's pointers.

Elephas revealing he worked for someone else (not really surprising, he really did randomly show up and Aileen didn't need to win him over either...). Lillia succeeded in winning over two characters beforehand it seems (ugh that b*tch). Also that Empress Dowager feels so out of place, she's annoying too.

And it hurt to have Aileen have to say mean things to Claude in order to protect Almond </3 ... Almond T^T Please be okay huhu. Sweetie made sure to let the Claude know she was lying but got hurt DX

Really hate Lillia >.< What did she do to Claude!? At least everyone working with Aileen is very reliable, helping her get back on track and protecting the demons.

This episode pissed me off royally at how cheesy it was. Every single one of these characters were exasperating with their canned performances of "acting" out their plots during the ball. It was so annoying I sped it it up 1.5 times to get through it faster. Felt like I was watching a scripted stage play by amateurs. I feel absolutely nothing, unlike previous episodes where it was more interesting.

I guess the one thing I didn't expect was her coming in with the duck head again. Quirky. But that moment was short lived and the rest of episode went back to the other character showcasing how evil they are acting evil for the sake of being evil...there was no substance.

LOL @ the Duck Head

Also, apparently Claude ends up falling for Aileen even tho he was so insistent on trying to be human... just last episode...

He did a full 180-degree turn... not only that, but he's trying to seduce Aileen...  I thought the King/ Empress already ordered them not to get close to each other? yet they simply just stood by and watch Claude take the duck away?... well... I guess they don't know that's Aileen?  but Lilia is also there and she knows, but also did nothing...

Only to end up with a "Play". Tho Aileen is doing her Queen acting, LOL

Meanwhile Almond escaped and try to help Aileen but ends up getting hurt and triggers the Demon Lord's memory.

Also... HOW THE FUCK DID LILIA GET ANOTHER HOLY SWORD? ? ?  didn't Aileen took it? WTF? Plot hole? Plot hole that you? (especially as Aileen's Holy Sword activates at the end of episode....)
