----------------------------------------
Lol there's more fan service than I had expected. Those bath scenes ;) Kiki also looks great imo.

Torou's introduction was funny and I think her voice works quite well. Her flirty personality is how I remembered in the manga. Her connection with Obi is interesting though.

A stop by because of the rain. A lady, also customer (Mizuki-san), appears.

Bath time and lol @ guy's (especially Nobu's character) having talk about girls. Then talk about cooking because the male friend / guard of prince cooked before. Peaceful and fun night. Wait, so the customer knows Nobu's character?

She is requested by someone to get his son, who ran away from home, back and she asked him to help out. It progressed easily until she got attacked and fell. The past talk. He rejected her offer to pair up with her again because he enjoys his time with them. Everyone found them and not only her case is closed, Nobu's character's "friend" understood why he rejected her offer. lol @ the prince jealous about Nobu's character gets to ride with the main girl.

The king is up to something again next.

I'm so glad Obi has found a place where there are people he cares for to the point he doesn't want to leave. It's too bad Zen is the only one who has not ridden a horse with Shirayuki. XD

Gasp! Is the next episode...


Edit: I had to correct 'rode' to 'ridden'. It was bothering me. XD

A nice paced episode with good background information. I mean I have always kinda figured Obi has had a bad past since the way he was in the beginning of season one. I seriously love Obi though for giving Zen a hard time about Kiki and Shirayuki. I also felt bad about Obi scars ;(. I do think he still likes his "Miss". BUT we all know it can not work so move on boy. Kiki and Mitsuhide were also cute this episode I really hope they end up together. I was hoping for some more cute moments between Zen and Shirayuki but maybe need week.
NEXT week Izana get on the Zen&Shirayuki train it's leaving with or without you. I hope Zen asks Shirayuki to marry him and that will be the end of it! Oh my waiting a whole week to find out is going to be rough.

(Side note for anyone that could help. Where can I get the manga in English? I have been trying to find it and I can only find it in Japanese. Thank you!!)

Kiki is so charming that even Shirayuki was blinded by her.


Way to go Mitsuhide, you can't find any women better than Kiki as your wife!

It would be great if Zen also employed Trow as his underling too like Obi, she would be a nice addition to female character in the castle

Why the fuk is shirayuki always riding with obi? Why the fuk is she always having these intimate moments with obi? I feel like they should let a girl come by that starts to get all over Zen and then Shirayuki can finally get jealous for once.

Also obi needs to know when to fuck off already

I cant be the only one getting annoyed by this... jesus christ

hmm, not a bad episode. loved all the character interactions this episode.
loved Shirayuki being blinded by Kiki in the bath.
Seems obvious the best person for Mitsuhide is Kiki. Loved how Kiki suggested Obi as his wife XD
Seems like we got a lot of Obi this episode. He definitely likes where he is at now and seems to have no interest in going back to what he used to do.

I wouldn't really call those intimate moments, since they have always been and will always be one-sided. I agree with wanting a girl to momentarily make Shirayuki jealous, but the reverse harem tendencies are strong with this story at times.

Anyway,

They already skipped the Mitsuhide chapters which included some of my favourite parts in the manga including:


It was a bit sad tbh, particularly because the skipped chapters had a Mitsuhide's conversation with Shirayuki that made me an even bigger Mitsuhide fan; a conversation which turned out to be really important for Shirayuki and Zen's future.

Besides, they didn't really do my favourite parts of this chapter any justice.



If that wasn't enough, they are going to skip a lot of chapters. When I said a lot, I mean A LOT (including the entire Assignment to the Northern Territory Arc, and our lovely Kiki's past arc 💔)


and go straight to the marriage meetings so that they can end the anime.

This also means there will probably never be any sequel after this season after all.

Looks like I would need to read the manga, the adaptation seems far away from faithful.

This episode wasn't bad at all, it is good to show that Obi stays with the group not only because he loves Shirayuki but also because he belongs to the group.

This season has a lot of Shirayuki skin revealing scenes as compared to the almost nonexistent ones in the prequel – they showed her feet for the first time earlier this season, during her visit to Tanbarun while walking through the hidden path and getting lost there was a brief focus on her thighs, while kidnapped with Kazuki there was another brief moment of focus on her thighs as she ripped the hem of her dress, and now we have this bath scene. Along with that, while the prequel had the first episode of long hair ultra cute Shirayuki, this season has more Shirayuki cuteness and adorableness with her ponytail version being incredibly kawaii and her loli form being super duper kawaii.


Ahem... moving on... This episode was a bit about Obi (but the Shirayuki blushing in the bath and her ponytail form were the highlights). Obi meets an acquaintance from his old days and they go on a mission together just like old times. And he stays out a bit too long and Zen gets mad at him for not returning.

Obi has changed a whole lot after coming under Zen. Previously he wouldn't get close to anyone and now he's close to a bunch of people and is attached to them. Previously since he wasn't attached to anyone, no one really cared about him. Now he's got people who would get worried sick if something were to happen to him.

Obi really likes teasing Zen "every time I would remember those words, you'll show up naked in my mind" lol.

Can't deny it. I mean, I like Obi and all, but his past just wasn't very interesting at all. That, and I want to see a lot more moments between Zen and Shirayuki than we have been so far.

A nice relaxing episode with a ton of funny moments and some interesting backstory for Obi. I really loved the funny moments in the batch with Obi teasing Zen and omg the Mitsuhide x Kiki moments were so cute! But yea overall a pretty chill episode with showing how much Obi really has changed from his past and It looks like the next episode will be about marriage! Hopefully Zen proposes to Shirayuki soon!

Loved the episode. The return of someone from Obi's past triggers some nice flashbacks. He really was a wild animal back then compared with what he is now, and it's all thanks to Zen and Shirayuki that he's changed so much.

The Mitsuhidde Kiki moments were some of the best all season, though I really wish they'd put in that goodbye kiss moment. It would have been hilarious!

Overall this episode was just chill to watch, with little to no action, but enjoyable nonetheless.

It was nice to see a bit of the past of Obi. We already knew that he was badass, but it's nice to see he had a hot onee-san.
Now, all I need left is some KikixMitsuhide and the circle will be complete. No seriously, we need some serious confirmation for that pair. They're cute together, in a stoic way.

This was a fantastic episode imo. Had a good mix of romance, comedy and action. And a lot of Shirayuki being cute, especially when Mitsuhide was being picked up lol.

Mizuki Nana omg what a extravagant one-episode guest <3 It's been awhile since I've seen her in anything.

That's to be expected. It's really quite lucky that 2 cours were decided from the start so we got to enjoy so much, because the first season didn't sell well at all. I'm rather glad that they're not going to end it in the middle of nowhere.

The yuri and yaoi bonding this episode though, didn't expect. I swear Shirayuki ate some yuri drugs this episode. "She didn't choose me either!" lmao I wouldn't mind more of it Ok but seriously, I liked all that bonding. I prefer slice of life far more than action, anyway so... yeah.

MitsuKiki scene was fun as always, felt like Mitsuhide was trying to imply that if it's Kiki, then he might consider marrying. Not sure though. It was lowkey anyway.

Probably my favorite episode yet, it was refreshing. And I would love to see Trow again, she's fun.
