| So the Mother - Son fight was resolved way faster than I expected, and there was no bloodshed involved. Just a bit of slavery. Now that Hart's problems are all solved, he can live happily ever after, frolicking in the snow with his demon servant, parents, and of course his loli sister! Psych, he's going to go to magic school now, per king's orders! Truly an offer you couldn't refuse! Of course Hart doesn't exactly want that so he's planning on sending out his clone that's unable to use magic instead, so that he gets expelled and left alone.  Charlotte is still a weeb, and Hart figures out how to make portals. |

spfy said: Iirc they said subs were also CN. I didn't see it, but I guess voices are JP? JustAnotherShiro said: Oh? Do you know if the Chinese release still has English subtitles? That would be kinda weird if there was an English release out there but it's only available in China.Chinese release Otherwise, I don't understand why someone would start a discussion on an English forum for an episode in Chinese... And cmon, we have ppl here discussing untranslated manga, anime that aired only in cinemas in Japan and prescreening episodes. Most of episode discussions for popular titles are made by guys who watch in on Japanese TV. Nothing wrong for Chinese watcher to post here lol. |

Not that I'm aware of, sorry. spfy said: Otherwise, I don't understand why someone would start a discussion on an English forum for an episode in Chinese... I wanted to mark this episode as watched, and I like reading what other people think >.< Didn't want the lack of a discussion to dissuade people from talking about the episode. spfy said: I guess I would not complain as much if the thread was titled more like "episode 5 discussion (only available in Chinese)" I would title it that way, but unfortunately you can't edit titles for episode discussions 😖 I didn't want to confuse anyone, sorry about that. |

| Haruto brandishing as the Black Knight, counters his way into the Flash Princess's quarters, though whatever attacks that she tries against him, it has no effect on him. And he made his statement clear enough to last 5 years, with Char unchanging being an anime otaku, and Flay being moronic to the blizzard cold. Despite being embarrassing to always do otaku stuff, all Haruto want to do is to impress Char. Hah, leaving that attack to the Black Knight, what a hilarious save lols. The peaceful life that has lasted 5 years, Haruto can finally become a shut-in, though Gold enrolls him into magic school, something that he cannot refuse, and Haruto must avert all conditions to get his shut-in life together. The thing is, Princess Marianne's father, King Jilq has set his eyes on Haruto to send him a recommendation letter, though it's his father who has sacrificed much for him. But an attendant outside from Flay, their mother has been hearing this and wants to be part of it, though the detest of school can be left to his copy...NOT. The real and the copy bickering about how they can make him not go to school, and for better or worse, the copy goes in the real Haruto's stead. Haruto finally having a place to himself to play games and be a shut-in, Char and Flay would come in to drop by often. Asking his copy to try about with his magic experiments, and it got the the point of asking Flay to take the copy to their dimension. Time to find another attendant... Almost halfway through, and this is more intentional comedy than most. |

| My fave episode so far honestly. Wasn’t expecting Haruto to pull up on the queen and make her his bitch this soon lmao. Dude is ruthless and I love it. The slave collar not only prevents her from acting on his family and their land, but also serves as a reminder to her and everyone else that there’s someone out there stronger who can get to her at any time. A real power move. 5 year timeskip kinda shocked me, that’s a lot of time to blow by lol. Char and Haruto really don’t look that much older. A magical school arc lets gooo… oh wait he’s gonna stay at home the whole time? 😂 I love how he’s dedicated and committed to the NEET lifestyle. Nothing is taking this man out of his room. I thought he himself would give it a try, but making a clone to attend school in his place is crazy. Given that he built the door connecting the two, I’m sure he’ll pop in every now and again if something interesting happens. Funny that we get a precure reference today given Hirogaru airs tonight lol. |

| Honestly, I am surprised with how bad this anime is. It's like every aspect where they could do something fun, they decide... no let's not do that and instead make it boring. Magic school? Naaa, let's just send the copy there and instead focus on the lazing around and otaku sister crap while having Haruto do dumb stuff for her. It feels more like this is anime about her pestering him to cosplay as Lelouch. I want this anime to be good, and keep watching the next episode in hopes for something more. But maybe I should give up ... |

| loved seeing haruto absolutely defeat the queen. i originally thought just putting the collar on her was letting her off easy, but i actually think it was appropriate. killing her would've been letting her off easy. this is instead a constant reminder that her life is held in someone else's hands and she's not the strongest like she always thought. the 5 year time skip caught me a little off guard. especially since haruto and charlotte didn't really change in appearance during that span of time, which they definitely should have. i always get a kick out of haruto's interactions with his clone. it's so funny to me. looking forward to seeing how the clone takes to school life and if their plan to get kicked out actually ends up working or not. |

| i feel bad for copy H, but he sure has a nice rapport going between him & OG H, plus Flay thrown in the mix lol it was kinda anti-climactic what happened to Queen Consort, but i have a feeling she will make her move now. |

felixsifuri said: In a One Piece perspective, the biological mom was likely the Big Mom, of this anime, Yet the main character destroyed her easily; ironic, queen threw wine at her lackey for failing to kill the Black Knight, only for her to feel a one-sided Defeat. Like to know what the Queen's power level is supposed to be since, like you said, I am surprised Little bloodshed occurred. Meh, now imagine if doujinshi writers were to "rewrite" this battle. So the Mother - Son fight was resolved way faster than I expected, and there was no bloodshed involved. Just a bit of slavery. Now that Hart's problems are all solved, he can live happily ever after, frolicking in the snow with his demon servant, parents, and of course his loli sister! Psych, he's going to go to magic school now, per king's orders! Truly an offer you couldn't refuse! Of course Hart doesn't exactly want that so he's planning on sending out his clone that's unable to use magic instead, so that he gets expelled and left alone. Charlotte is still a weeb, and Hart figures out how to make portals. Anyway, as expected from anyone wearing the same costume as Code Geass's Zero, he likes his little sister so much that he enslaved the queen; now that is how you treat your crappy "blood relatives" 🤣. Now question is how long the queen's lifespan is, this isn't the Christmas Carol when one learns and repents his/her sins; characters design to be arrogant tend to have short lifespans. On the side note, while she is evil, I like the Queen's Fashion taste (you only see her type of "fantasy" fashion in Queen's Blade, not sure any other anime?). Now what are the odds that the main character can create a "magical stick", like Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, that can turn Charlotte into an actual magical girl? |

| The fight Haruto had with the Flash Princess went faster than I thought and Haruto totally owned her. That slave collar is a constant reminder to leave Haruto's family alone which was a pretty clever move. However, I'm sure the Flash Princess will make a move when Haruto attends the school. I'm thinking they will attack Haruto's family not realizing the real Haruto is at home while the copy is at the school. |
| That colar scene could've went hentai at any time. Hikikomori life is just not meant for the MC. |
| . |
| The battle between mother and son was pretty cool. The MC and his clone riffing with each other was also funny. |
 |
| Char! How old is Char now! Why her appearance is the same as five years before?? |
| The queen's hot but she's a bitch unfortunately. Did she change after her defeat to Haruto though? Kinda felt like it. It's sad that he had to fight her biological mother. Maybe someday she'll know and they'll mend their relationship. Haruto gotta go to school or not. He sent his copy. It's good that Char still comes to visit him, she's adorable. Talking about adorable it was adorable when Natalia wanted to go with him. |

CalorieEnchilada said: The magical school stuff would still have been way more fun even if it's retreading than what the series is currently doing. I am going to give it another episode, if it's still just him playing with his sister doing the cringy hero crap, I will be dropping it.MarchinBunny said: Don't know if that's entirely fair yet. We don't know that something isn't going to happen that will cause problems and make him actually have to go.Honestly, I am surprised with how bad this anime is.

It feels more like this is anime about her pestering him to cosplay as Lelouch. I want this anime to be good, and keep watching the next episode in hopes for something more. But maybe I should give up ... Even if he sends his clone, it also doesn't mean that he won't have to pop over there to get involved from time to time either. Magical Schools have been done so often that I could see it be better if it's not something that he's entirely involved with and instead hops over with his teleporter from time to time to do stuff with his clone. If he did go then I could see it retreading a lot of stuff that have happened in other OP magic user anime. |
| I am become bunny, fluffing of worlds. |
| why does he so desperately be a shut in? I'm pretty sure most actual hikikomoris would love being isekai'd with OP stats and have adventures. This MC is pretty weaksauce overall and a big reason why this show is below average. |
| Everything was so fluid and integrated.. I felt like I was in the anime.. to think i'm that fond of this anime. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| That is some way to put your biological mother in place huh? LOL Lemme guess the blue-haired girl will his attendant? |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| The Code Geass references are so blatant... -Zero costume parody, also the Black Knight, who is secretly an abandoned prince -Marianne Giselotte the Flash as a selfish queen -Nunnally Charlotte as beloved little sister, the blind and crippled part removed. |
| There's no inherent right or wrong in this universe, but when we think with emotions rather than logic, we make things so. |
| The queen got what she deserved for messing with Charlotte. I like how it got resolved quickly. That log house looks cozy. He was able to create more modern appliances. And them Code Guess references stuff. Heh Anyway, its a fun to watch anime that doesn't it take itself too seriously. Charlotte is adorable cosplaying as a magical girl anime. She's adorable to begin with. |
| Nunnally the anime. Narrated by Nunnally. |

 |
| I was wondering, would Haruto eventually reveal his origin to both his (foster and biological) parents? |
| that clone is more funny than the original. |
| MC fights against the queen and despite her multi-attribute skills he attacks with even more grit than her. She seems more like a demon letting her true colors show. At this point Gold and his wife are just blind to the fact that MC could potentially have a sinister background or be involved in some underground activity. Hart is enrolled into a school thanks to the Princess - his sister - recommending him. That means we'll get some spoiled noble kid enemies! Finally the clone is getting some human rights back and has his own choice in the decisions Hart is making. |
| sych a punishment was kinda satisfying. but i was kinda hoping for him to kill herand then be all like "good bye mother" or something stupid |
