Sei is so wholesome, I love her. Her smiles give me life. <3

Nice episode again, it has a very shoujo-esque feel to it which I'm all for. She literally got swept off her feet by the 'Ice Knight'. xD

Curious if we'll end up in some sort of reverse harem scenario and if the plot is going to focus more on slice of life or if we'll end up in more intense scenarios.

damn we got introduced to more pretty guys what a treat lmao
no but for real, another quite enjoyable episode, I like the main heroine, she's not some another dummy helpless girlie who needs someone to save her constantly but rather a strong independent woman, also I hope the romance between her and the blonde prince will blossom, they look adorable together!

Awesomely cute episode. OP/ED visuals and songs are so beautiful, wonderful.
I love this show's characters including Sei so much. They're handsome and kindly. Albert is literally a knight on a white horse :D

I hate how Hawkes was instantly thrown into the mix as the main love interest. I always thought Jude would have been a better fit but even with a HEAVY amount of Hawkes moments my boy Jude slid in with that "You're looking more beautiful moment."

My man. Though at this point even two episodes in, it''s clear as day where this anime is going Romantically. Which Sucks.

This reminds me so much of Honzuki. Sei is absolutely adorable and I love the different take on the isekai genre. The Op and the ED are amazing too! This is gonna be a nice, cute and wholesome ride. I’ll have to check out the LN

Ya know this happens irl too so the show's not that off on this point. Plus, if the girls' goals are to keep their fiancees, blaming the guy just makes things worse for their relationship. The thought of finding someone else is probably something these girls aren't that confident about...
There's no inherent right or wrong in this universe, but when we think with emotions rather than logic, we make things so.

This show does everything all right and is refreshing to see a female MC in an isekai, but everything feels so cheap and generic. It could be my problem with the genre, but yeah, I got bored from this ep pretty quickly

Sei is totally gonna lewd at the Knight Commander

And looks like her "mysterious 50% increase" is still going.

Also, we got the usual "Shoujo issue" where guys would go for the cuter girl. Especially since everyone wants to be like the "prince" (even if he's a douchbag), where the Prince in beginning of episode 1 went straight to the "cuter" girl instead of our lovely megane wearing girl (oops, no longer megane I guess)

If this weren't a shoujo-oriented series focused more on interpersonal relationships, then I would have liked to see her revolutionize the food industry, secure spice trade routes, marketing high end cosmetic brands nationally, monopolize big pharma, and dominate the economy. And then, take over the world!

I wanted Sei and Albert's development to be like Arte and Leo but instead the dude has already started flirting XD

It's turning out to be like those shoujo manga which is totally not my thing, I hope they focus more on their potions and all so that I can survive till the end.

I feel duped by those saying "it's like ascendance of a bookworm, so if you liked that you'll like this one", this is just another shoujo with the twist of an OP protagonist in an isekai.

I'll give it another episode but I bet I'll drop it, don't get me wrong, it's not bad but it's not my taste.

I noticed this too. Pretty over the not holding both parties accountable thing. Sucks, because I'm currently enjoying it and it's annoying to see you know? I'm going to overlook it for now and hope the show can keep up its charm, at least for me so far.

Sei impressing everyone with her dishes. It may be too early for Sei but looks like she likes Hawke. Hawke is quite handsome himself. But, because of her skills, she can get into trouble. Sei also helping other girls with cosmetics. Nice.

Ladies and gentlemen our ship has sailed, like any other seas or ocean I expect storms, rogues waves, pirates and sea monsters ahead on this maiden voyage of ours but this will one adventure for all of us! I trust our gallant knight to protect us, and our Holy Saint to guide us and show us the way.

Her 50% efficacious magic not only works on potions, but on cooking and cosmetics too. Heck she might have corrected her own eyesight problems with her own eye cream!

So who the eff is Liz? A princess? Another powerful and influential noble or a daughter of one?

Inner-monologue gives me a Girlish Number vibes for the script (same studio).

So Hawke and Sei will be a rival Knight-Saint pair to Kyle and the other girl made into a saint in episode 1?

The knights want Sei's high-grade potions, so she'll continue making them at the lab, but she has to be careful about her improved food and cosmetics spreading? Does the institute have a monopoly?

How big is sink? Looks like Sei couldn't reach the tap/faucet.

I prefer the look with glasses. So removing them is what enables her to read the ancient language the books in the library are written in?

I just started watching this. It's nice, but her name should be Mary Sei.

My God, the potions she makes are fifty percent more efficient. The food she makes is delicious, no one else has ever thought of mixing herbs with food before. Also the food enhances physical capabilities without Mary Sei even trying. She touches, it turns to gold.

Everyone around Mary Sei is in awe of her and want to be near her. Including the handsome Ice Knight, who apparently has been icy to everyone else - but is completely different with Mary Sei.

Also her eyesight just improved by itself, and she can suddenly read another language when she couldn't in the beginning.

I can't wait to see what wonders she'll accidentally come up with next!

English: Sei discovers that Commander Hawke was the person she saved. A possible romance begins to surface between them. Meanwhile, she develops her skills and alchemy for food, which also aids in healing and increasing power.
A new friend, Elizabeth! I hope we will have many episodes with her.

I'm so blah about the whole romance thing. I'm already exhausted. Maybe the show will surprise me and Sei will end up with Liz. Or Nicole. Seriously, this is like reading some of my friends' old fictions in high school where they were sent to another world and suddenly all these pretty boys were very interested in them-- actually, wait that's... exactly what's happening. Damn it.

The lack of glasses has made my quality of life drop drastically. Okay but jokes aside, let me say something about those glasses. The glasses were one of the only things that were kinda keeping Sei on our level. Not really a self-insert level, but on a level that makes me want to kinda root for her. There was a "this kinda nerdy girl" feel about her that made the show a little more palatable. Now that the glasses are gone, she's kinda just a kinda an average, clueless MC without much charm to me. Like her glasses took away a bit of her foreignness/what distinguished her from the others-- ya know, what made her stand out and made you think that perhaps she was going to struggle a bit with being in another world. Now it honestly just feels like you could probably tell this story another way without even really making this an isekai. Like pretty much it feels like you could say this MC came from a distant country in that world and is just bringing ideas over and I'd believe it.

Speaking of struggles, man, the whole getting a little upset because she realizes how different this world is... because they don't use herbs in cooking?? Come on now. Also, that's pretty basic stuff. They have already been doing that. It's a little weird. Just a little annoyed that she's pretty much like introducing the basics of society to them when we know the history of cooking with herbs is not recent at all and honestly the way people don't seem to season gosh darn anything anymore makes me feel like the folks in this world should have probably been able to teach her more than she could teach them... but that's just me being bitter about certain food cultures.

Anyway, it's just annoying to see Sei so quickly devolve into Mary Sue territory. Not amused. Still, I'll keep trying. I appreciate that Liz is pretty chill.

While Isekai lately have become quite the oversaturated genre, this looks pretty interesting to me so far with the 'second' Saint Sei joining the researchers.

She is actually a decent character since she is being cautious from the previous episode the moment she came into a new place she never heard of (unlike some that are happy to be transported 😅😁).

I honestly disliked (but not hate) this when there's a pretty lady being the MC and I can't find the perspective to relate to the story but now I found it! Simply put, be the hero beside the Saint, lol (and of course just don't compare it to other stories and reset your idea of what is good and bad and just enjoy it) and hate that jerk fiend prince for ignoring our Sei, such prince shouldn't exist in the first place! 😏

I also noticed, Sei is getting more cute and adorable every time I see her. Her character is pretty cute and not arrogant. No indecisiveness and does all she can for what she likes.

Another thing to look forward here is that our MC has a pretty great art style quality (most of the characters, really) and moe, if you didn't see her moe moments, you need training (especially her pouting) and more blushing!!! 🤣

I will be looking forward for more of this wonderful slice of isekai. It is so romantic, relaxing and inspiring! 🥰

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.

Neat little bit of world-building there. The food tastes awful because they don't use herbs and spices in food, just for potions!

Cute how even the Director sees his friend and Sei blushing at each other and is just quietly shipping them lol

Such a lighthearted anime..almost like a slice of life but with a constant slightly dark undertone. I'm liking this alot honestly. Although the romance between her and the 3 guys they showed in the OP is a tad bit overwhelming. I'm sure it will feel more natural as the episodes go on. It's probably just because of the content they keep cutting that it feels a bit sudden.

Sei should make booze. I just wonder if the booze will increase or decrease intoxication by 50%, perhaps 50% less hangover? Or does the alcohol content go up by 50%?

Or perhaps she should make drugs, "Breaking Bad in Another World".
