I feel like Ann just has bad luck these days when she gets caught into a drama when it's out of her control. This time, she got caught into another mess because of some thief.

On the other hand, I do like how she is more confident in her skills now. Plus, she has new allies on her side. Cute character chemistry imo this episode. Seems she's more and more conscious about Shall.

It's unlikely to warm hands by breathing if you have a stove in front of you. Anyway, it seems that Ann got warm from the inside.

Omg Challe trying to warm up Anne’s hands was so cute. May not have been very efficient but I love that he’s talking strides to understand her finally.

Kat being alph is a predictable but cool twist. This was a nice growth opportunity for Anne not only to improve as an artisan but to stop comparing herself to other people.

Kind of a chill episode. Can’t wait for next week

Anne's pursuit of being a Silver Sugar Master brings the gang to Lewiston, to the heart of one such sugar artisan that's out of the way.

With a beautiful sugar confection unceremoniously almost stolen and shattered to the ground, blaming Anne would be just uncalled for, but since she was the only person at the scene, the sugar artisan "Kat" can only pin the blame on her to work for free labor to restore the sugar confection that's to be used for a wedding. Seeing that there's no more silver sugar left, Anne taking things personally to make more silver sugar, even in the dead of the night, it raises concerns for Challe to provide ample heat...by heating her hands with his breath. The romance grows...?

Day by day, both Kat and Anne working tirelessly to restore the sugar confection, and it's only until the vixen of Viscountess Clay shows up to purchase the sugar confection, shows their unwillingness to give up, coupled with the thief that happened to almost get off the other day. And this time, Anne did the delivery before the perpetrator could get to it, pleasing the customer being a cobber's daughter. Kat's fairy servant Benjamin is such a mood that he doesn't have to do much most of the time other than looking over Kat.

On the way to Westol to meet the Viscount Hugh once again, Anne only realized that the sugar artisan she wanted to meet was Alph Hingley, which was Kat himself, which Hugh gave him that nickname. Hope to see Kat once again in the journey.

I guess they finaly ran out of budget, huh? After 4 amazing EP, finaly a slightly mediocre EP. Or at least they just simply ran out of time during production perhaps?
I mean, there are quite a lot of strangely made and unecessary montages here, where they can opt to actually made actual scenes out of them. Montages was to be used to compress several scenes, that would otherwise took an entire EP on their own, together in a more compact format to fit a smaller amout of screne time. The montages shown in this EP however, wouldn't actually took a significantly more of the screen time than if they weren't made into montages instead. So the montages just felt out of place here.
There's also some strange scene where Alf is kneeding but the scene was shot strangely too high, most likely to hide the actual kneeding animation itself.
What a strangely made EP.....

That was a lovely episode, Cat is an interesting character, and he also treats fairies with respect. His sugar craft was beautiful and he has his own principles. I like that we get to learn more about how this world works.

Really liked this episode. By the way, it gave me a nostalgic feeling of another old series called Hello Sandybell. It’s not the same but has some points in common.

every episode of the show is beautiful. hope we can see Cat and his fairy in future.

Imo Shalle seems to be the best romance male character of this season.

Cat is an interesting character, he treats the fairies well and he doesn't seem arrogant. I hope to see him again in the upcoming episodes~

Benjamin is so cute! and it's adorable to see Benjamin and Mythrill together ♡

I'm glad that the romance is starting to grow, though I don't want it to be too rushed either. Can't wait for next ep~

Anne is involved in more drama but in the end it was more of a learning experience working with one of the crafters she looked up to. Although she didn't know until when she was about to leave lol.

Also that scene with Shall warming up Anne's hands was so niceeee. Anne definitely felt something inside warming up.

Now onto Westal where we will probably meet that Hugh guy again.

Lighting a fire with flint and steel isn't as easy as it looks. It's a pity she doesn't have a couple of candles burning already.

Look at our boy Challe looking all smug when Anne told off that noble lady. A free Challe is built different, you flirt. 

Damn, I should've seen it coming lmao, Kat being Alph did not cross my mind at all. But I hope we see him again, he's great, also Benjamin. On the other side of the spectrum, I hope we never see Jonas again, he's ass. 

That sugar confection Kat made looks so beautiful though.

Also, just noticed now that Anne's eyes kind of looks like apples. Really looking forward to the next episode.

For me this was an OK filler episode. Cute and, perhaps, introducing us to Kat for a later role in the story. The lesson on kindness around the wedding piece for the cobbler’s daughter was a nice piece of character growth.

But, the hand warming moments between Anne and Challe in front of the fire was a sweat, wonderful and wholesome image of growing friendship and intimacy!

This episode was a bit predictible.  In part, because we don't have the world knowledge that the characters have, so we had no way of knowing who this Alph was or why he was important.  Because of that the impact of the reveal is extremely muted.

I love the art and style of much of the animation, and the characters aren't terrible, but the execution of the plot really feels lacking.  Sad, because Part of me really wants to see this story drag on for another season.

This episode went by pretty quickly! I loved it :D

Anne met a sugar artisan she looked up to and she got a bit more experience when it comes to making sugar confectionaries. And I guess from here on out she's just going to go around to different places learning how to improve her craft and meet other artisans? I mean I'm definitely not complaining! This episode was great!

Also I love the little message at the end that Kat gave to Anne. How she shouldn't look up to others, as she isn't second to anyone. She's unique. She has her own style that no one else can steal from her, which we kinda saw a bit of in the last episode. Idk I just like that message because I think it's something I needed to hear as a writer and I'm sure it was something she needed to hear too >w<

I thought she wanted to apprentice under a Master. A self taught Master?

Looks like Westol's lack of sugar shops is because they don't make money. I'd hurry back to Kat before he pulls stakes. Shisho!

Anne is all excited to visit the town, while Challe is bored as hell ... too bad the guy she wanted to see has moved away
but there's another different shop, with a strange looking outside, but very pretty inside

there's a little fairy there , but he rather sleep than listen to Mithril lols
oh no, there's a thief, and he destroyed the art piece, and ofc Anne is now the suspect
oh the guy recognised her from the tournament, and now made her work there for a bit, but Challe didn't like the idea

Anne, taking this as a chance to learn from someone she recognised talent from, and she is very serious, even while doing preparatory work
meanwhile Mithril, not being able to beat Benjamin, he just decided to sleep with him lols

oh, the guy only seels sugar candy art to people he likes, and for those, even the small price he is asking for is already an high one, he is a nice guy, but Challe doesn't agree with that, every sugar crafter is a baka lol

Anne is worried that they don't have enough sugar, even with her own, so she got up in the middle of the night to make some more, what an hard worker
but it isn't going well, her hands are too cold to do what needs to be done, but tbh, wouldn't it be easier to ask Challe? something as simple as hitting 2 rocks together should be easy for him, and cold doesn't work on him
oh, there he is, and as expected, it went as easy as i said

Challe warming her hands, that's cute
but shouldn't she be hot already, she is literally in front of a fire...

next, time to eat breakfast, and guess Benjamin has to wake up and work once in a while
i like how he made sure she ate first, working without energy can't be a good thing, specially after she stayed up late last night

she is impressed by watching the guy working on the sugar, i mean, it's nice to learn from other people when you're serious about something
there's also a nice song in the background (12.50)

there's a noble woman, trying to buy the candy piece for double the money that the original girl is gonna pay, but she was turned down, money ins't everything after all
LOL she wanted to buy Challe, but even he sent a bad comment at her
oh, so she was the one who made her servant go and steal the piece earlier, what a scum
i wonder if she really gave up or if she will send someone to attack them later

the piece is finally finished, and it's as pretty as the one before
Anne will be the one delivering it, seeing the buyers face when they see the piece, will be a good reward for her

but ofc, like i said, it won't be that easy, there's the scar guy again, can't wait to see Challe hit him
HAHAHA they actually prepared a fake one knowing the guy would come, actually funny to see their faces
oh she already gave the piece, and ofc the girl loved it ... and while the guy apologised for making Anne work, she enjoyed it since she learned how happy someone can be when receiving the arts. and ofc seeing the work being done is also a good experience
Challe feels good for insulting people, he is as dark as the obsidium lols

she even got a beautiful coat, which will be perfect for her after 5 years, if she grows as expected :v

Benjamin's wing was hiding in the coat tho, he can run if he wants, but being with his owner is the best place for him ... and damn, he is old lol he stopped counting his age after 250 years

LOL before leaving, he learned that the cat guy was actually the one she was looking for earlier, he didn't move that far from his original place huh
he told her to not look up to anyone, she is herself, the only one out there
well time to move to the next town, and there, maybe meet the guy from other episodes, Hugh

she tried to seel some candy but seems like no one cares, it's an expensive thing after all

Is there a point where silver sugar confections can expire or something? They seem really fragile.

I feel like a lot of the problems in this show so far could be resolved if the artisans had some kind of spell to protect their confections.

Need me a fairy husbando who will do this to me

Literally the most wholesome ep, gave me sm dopamine >u<

Benjamin is literally the cutest omg. Him deciding to stay with Kat even though he could escape at any moment was too wholesome -u-. And Kat sticking to his morals and refusing to serve the woman was commendable and something I would respect a person even more for. Overall, such a sweet ep (❀´ ˘ `❀)・:*ੈ♡‧₊˚:・

I'm glad this series seems to be sticking to the wholesome vibes. I'm sure we'll get some more drama towards the end but I'm not too botherd as long as we get more wholesome stuff to balance it.

Another heartfelt and inspiring episode.

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.

This was a pretty good episode. Kat-san is even a supreme artisan. And Benjamin is adorableeeee.

They finally gave Anne a night gown instead of making her sleep in her damn day clothes; it was very cute.

I do wonder why Challe won't attach his other wing on now that he has possession or if it's because he's traveling with Anne. The smirk Challe had on his face when Anne said he didn't belong to anyone, I almost hollered.

Cat is quite talented, and fairly mature as well. He's alright.

Ann had a great time at his shop making that confection. The winter clothes Cat gave her are really something else.

The only thing that makes me mad about this anime is the fact people keep telling Anne she's going to be pretty/prettier in the future when she's already cute and pretty <3

I like how Cat/Alph is actually a good person (and teacher for Anne?). Not really a surprise he turned out to be the person she admired and whose work she wanted to see but still nice they could work together. And I also like how he chooses his clients (even if they don't have money).

Overall a pretty cute episode (especially the scene when Challe tried to warm Anne's hand had me melting *-* I bet she warmed up from inside :). And I finally found my anime persona = Benjamin (how he keeps sleeping through everything and doesn't care about anythig :D).
