Yarinaoshi Reijou wa Ryuutei Heika wo Kouryakuchuu Episode 9 Discussion

Princess Faris looks like a cunning whore to my eyes.
Those proposals looks SUS, even her smiles are suspiciously unnaturally creepy. Please get away from that loli. Scary. Even that attendant of hers is seriously SUS. lols

Anyway, it was mostly a fun episode with Jill restraining Hadis while he was on the floor. Jill making decisions appropriately was lovely! 🥰🥰🥰

Her character is so pure, how adorable. 🥰

For someone who is clearly a smart tactician, Jill is pretty dumb sometimes; it would’ve been more advantageous for her in this episode if she dangled her future knowledge in front of everyone. Plus this episode also shows how toxic Jill and Hadis’ relationship is

They went from 10 years old to 8 y.o. Lol. Her incestious brother prince got even creepier than he was before.
Anyway. Didn't get like 25% of the politics they talked this episode. It was confusing before, but this time it was the most confusing. Maybe it's badly written or I'm not enough engaged to follow it, I'm not sure. Generally I don't have problems with any shows having politics.

I feel the politics are getting hard to follow. The only thing I dont like is how often i have to pause and replay lines

Faris has a kind of spooky look to me and I already dont trust her

Lol Hadis continuously growing weak from Jill saying passionate words about him


That was just the subs. What what said was "juu-sai" (10 year old) and "juukyu-sai" (19 year old). "Teen" is an English speaking concept that emerged later yeah. Also while i doubt they are going for historical accuracy I dont think people in that time viewed life stages based on age strictly. It was more to do with the responsibilities they held too.

Preindustrial workers worked less than modern standards actually. Though that's in general not the ages you spoke of.

An now 8 with 19. If wasn't for age thing I would only love this, but the age thing 🤮. Jill is slightly exceptable, since mentally older and such, but from Hadis perspective 🤮

@LilyVarbik
Aside from being fiction the boundaries between different kind of relationships are pretty fuzzy and ill defined when you look at them at the surface level without cultural context and the writer seems aware of this. What I mean is nothing has Hadis done on surface level that you couldn't see in a close platonic relationship at least in some cultures. Not only is Jill actually 16 and been through a lot of experiences dealing with people to have her be more matured socially and emotionally Hadis has been socially isolated due to his curse making everyone turn against hm and went through a lot of trauma from that so he's exceptionally lonely and he's mentally in the past not well socially or emotionally matured and very well knows he could never be with anyone 14 or older with the curse which would alter his perceptions even more. So they are basically like same age mentally and actually Jill the more mature one. On top of that he also did mention age gaps like over twice his are common in where he is from with his family. What is the norm for someone influences views. So from Hadis perspective he's just being completely normal. Jill herself said he's like her little brother. He has shown no sign of any interest in doing anything sexual with her just cuddles and kisses and even that it's not only for his pleasure it's for the emotional support between Jill and him plus he barely can do anything without dying of embarrassment. Also this is a shojo, you're supposed to see things from Jill's perspective not so much Hadis'. So just enjoy it for what it is. It's a female fantasy of an older boy liking you, getting second chances, and regaining youth while finding a true romance; all of which I know plenty have that kind of fantasy.

Cunning whore is CRAZY
