| Mia got dressed up for a ball party this episode. You can tell how she plans her life with every detail but also trying to get the most of it. The dance itself was charming to watch, especially with teh magical-like aura and chereography. I think Mia herself wasn't fully prepared and flustered a bit. Still, I think this is the most elegant episode of the show so far. |
 |
| I thoroughly enjoy the diverse ways they show the guillotine in this series. The ball is upon Miss Mia, and Princess Mia's meticulous preparations have been flawless. Yet, a sudden mishap with her dress and makeup disrupts her carefully laid plans. Meanwhile, a noble unwittingly becomes ensnared in an imperial kidnapping scheme. Admiring how Mia can express something straightforwardly, yet everyone else delves two or three layers deeper, like astute theorycrafters. Thanks to her memories from her past life, Mia comprehends the dynamics at play. Consequently, she takes it upon herself to address the issue and discusses it with Rafina. Surprisingly, the outcome surpasses her initial expectations, partly because of her newfound candidness about her experiences in prison. Abel is best boy. |
 |
| Tiona certainly is the target of some others the question is will those who wished malise upon her have learned from this incident. And Abel seems to be pretty insecure but it's clear he is impressed Mia wether that will evolve into feelings for her is something for future episodes tho. Sion on the other hand is confident and has the skill to back it up but there are some misunderstandings here but those might work in Mia's favour. And Mia made a friend which is nice. |
Selfish reasoning wins the day again. |
| Mia sure has a talent for bringing back people from the abyss of despair. Anne really outdone herself with her choice of dress for Mia though. Abel finding his spark for wanting to improve himself was a nice thing to see. The dance at the ball really was impressively animated. Princess Rafina really has a pretty interesting personality that shows not just grace but also a degree of intimdation as well especially when she needs to get serious as shown in her little chat with Mia. A fearsome ally but also one that would ensure that what Mia does is always just. |

| Mia looked amazing in her dress at the ball and she dances so elegantly |
| Awesome episode! Loved the dancing animation during the Sion and Mia scenes. She may not have wanted there to be, but definitely some nice chemistry between the two of them lol. Poor Abel, having to watch from the sidelines as Mia and Sion put on a masterclass, but at least she promised to help him with his dancing. Plus he’s the first guy to actually see her as a girl so he’s got an advantage. As usual, Mia’s antics result in her looking like a benevolent genius in this episode. The ballroom dance went well and now she’s got three new allies. Pacing was a little fast, but again you’re always gonna have that with LN adaptations. Make sure you read the LN if you want the full version. |

| There's always a ballroom dance in these kind of "princess" story shows. Quite enjoyable to watch with the comedy though. |

| Mia is so cute in this episode, love how Anne acted as well. A solid anime. |

Reply to Rifad
This just my opinion
Maybe it can be concluded that in the previous timeline, Tiermoon's imperial servants tried to lock up Tiona without Mia's knowledge. Tiona's servant who ran away will meet Sion's servant Keith and finally, they conclude that this is all Mia's doing, because Mia also insulted Tiona in the previous scene. Ultimately, this is where the relationship between Tiona and Sion started the revolutionary movement in the empire.
It was from this scene that Rafinha-sama heard the scene and looked at Mia with a cynical look.
In the current story, because there is Anne who keeps Mia trusted, the future really changes
Iona, who tried to come to the ball in an ordinary dress, made Prince Sion see her and read a message from Keith that this had something to do with Mia as a plan from the princess of the empire.
In the previous timeline, Mia tried to show off that she was invited to dance with Sion, and Sion, without caring about Miia, immediately asked Tiona, who had just come from the tower. The letter from Keith made Sion think that Mia's invitation to dance was to buy time so that Tiona didn't get to dance.
Mia was just trying to dance, and because no one had asked her to dance before, even though Mia was very good at dancing, in the end she became a loner there.

| @Rifad That would make perfect sense if that were the case. I don't suppose we'll ever know though, Mia's knowledge of the past timeline is only what she herself experienced and wrote about after all. |
| the small comedic moments are very funny |
ow + nw = 90-2000s |
| I’m loving this story so far. It makes me wanna pick up the light novel. This has become my second favourite thing airing this season |
| Rafina looks like non-loli Index |
 |
| I can't get enough of the convenient misunderstandings of this show and the facial expressions are always so funny, it has to be my favorite new show from this season and this season is packed with so many that cater to my taste. and while people are bitching and crying about some odd frames in Jujutsu Kaisen animation and etc. I'm just glad that dance sequence in this show was so beautiful. |
| Give us more Anne aventures! And give us more Liora too, she is so cute ❤️ |
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it.  |
| I like seeing how the Princess' selfishness is being directed towards the right path, since she's scared of dying. A perfect motivation for someone as self centered as her. And the misunderstandings in this anime do not annoy me at all, surprisingly. |
Undefeated  Bahamut |
| At this point, Mia can use misunderstandings for world domination lol. This show is so underrated. Very entertaining. Easily became my most favorite show this fall 2023. |
| Lol everything Mia does comes to reward her later. She has the devils luck itself. Quite amusing though. The dance looked beautiful btw. |
 |
| Mia-sama. Mia-sama... Mia-SAMA!!! I just want to say that out loud. To think even Kirito is here... lmao Well played, Mia. You got yourself another admirer, without you knowing. lols P.S. I forgot to say how lovely Mia is in her simple attire. However, they made the zoomed-out part "CGI" which is kind of weird, but, the dancers form was splendid to the eyes. I can't pick which one... Mia or Tiara... |

| 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. |
| Wearing that much perfume? That didnt seem like a good plan she originally had. That can be suffocating. That white dress suited her well. The 2D animation of the dancing was nicely done and the CGI shots werent too bad when kept for distance shots and partially camouflaged with the lighting effects but certainly noticeable |

| I love how this episode portrayed Tia becoming more humble, which was beautifully shown in her modest dress design just like she was willing to lower other's perception of her by lowering herself to Abel's level by leading him in dance. This subtle development makes it clear, that Tia is actually becoming a better person and is not just pretending to avoid guillotine. Definitely the Black Horse of the season, just like the other Sumire Uesaka loli anime, that is airing the same day. |
 |
| im so so enjoying this show so much !!! really excited waiting for next epiosde !! |
| On this week of SASUGA MIA-SAMA, Mia won over the 2nd Prince by just giving him dance lessons (and a confidence boost I guess) and also gaslight Princess Rafina into a more "learning experience"-type of punishments. While also winning completely over Tiona and Prince Shion's bodyguard by doing nothing lmao |
| What??! i was not expecting for them to focus on the Sion/Mia dance at all! amazing work, adapting this and the kidnapping incident side-by-side! |
| This anime is very fun, I hope some kind of love triangle doesn't emerge, the story is going well for now ._. I love these inserts that they add, xddddd  |
I'm liking the amazing artwork in these still shots they've been showing at the end of every episode thus far.  |
