More flashbacks of Yuuri and his parents this episode. He's actually quite normal and curious as child.

He seems to have loving parens too. Reflecting back, it seems he didn't change much either in terms of personality.

Lilith now realizes that her sudden inclusion into Yuuri's life definitely is sus, though to what extent she's still unclear. At the very least, Yuuri at least is boisterous and apparently straightforward with his replies, so as much as Lilith counters, he's gonna call out her suspicions for getting close to him. And one such way is through games like chess, while sharing his flashbacks with his deceased parents playing with his father, and his mother making pudding. A perfectly normal family of a King, a Queen and a Pawn.

Making pudding for Yuuri to enjoy, but the young master's not feeling it for some reason, though he's quite OK with the pudding and doesn't find it suspicious anyhow. The role's reversed now, and his worries extent to a class open house that he doesn't want people knowing about Lilith, even though she's practically his only family. And to go to the classroom visitation just requires normal clothes, and Lilith instead, dresses like Gojouin's servant Fujisaki because she didn't have any appropriate clothing.

At least, Lilith made Yuuri's day, and it's all good.

Great episode! Lilith is wearing a suit!
It seems she also noticed how suspicious Yuuri is of her. But she made it her duty to be close to him so he could grow up happily.
Maybe he has HINAMIZAWA SYNDROME??!
She was very flustered hearing Yuuri's honesty as always xD.
She decides to first get his guard down to show how dependable she is. But that doesn't work and he thinks she is suspicious again!
And of course Yuuri practically confesses to her again unaware of it lol.
Her next attempt also fails... and leaves her flustered again!
It was nice to see a flashback of Yuuri and his parents.
They seemed to get along well and he was very happy to learn how to play chess from his father.
Yuuri was sad when he returned from school so Lilith made him pudding. Though his reaction wasn't what she expected...
She was upset he wasn't suspicious of her!
Seems there is an open house at school and you can bring your servants. He was scared Lilith wouldn't come but of course she would!
He asks her to come to it in normal clothes to not attract the attention of all his classmates so she came in a suit!

Looking forward to the next episode!

Beautiful episode. Yuuri playing chess with his dad was so sweet. He had such a loving and happy childhood, it’s understandable why it would be hard for him to be alone.

Lilith going through all that effort to find something to wear to pick him up from school was a nice touch. May not be much to the story, but I do really enjoy seeing them just going through life together.

Her flirting not being intentional was a shock to me. She definitely gives off ara ara energy and I thought it was on purpose lol

The first half was mainly more suspicious shenanigans, but Yuuri did get a face full of Lilith booba so that was fun lol. My favorite part was definitely when the two of them played chess together and we got a wholesome flashback featuring Yuuri’s parents, they really were sweet and it makes seeing Yuuri happy with Lilith that much nicer, while also being depressing at the same time lol.

And the bit at the end of the episode when Lilith came to Yuuri’s open house was sweet as well, seeing Lilith in Fujisaki’s uniform was a treat as well.

Lilith looks great in a suit too. Dayum lol. So all this flirting by Lilith is unintentional huh? She’s just trying to look out for him but I suppose it just comes off as flirty. Plus it seems she’s always blushing because he’s always saying such embarrassing stuff lol.

Yuuri’s parents were pretty adorable, it was kind of sweet seeing little Yuuri hanging out with them. Poor kid has been all alone but now he’s got Lilith! I like that she was sad when he wasn’t suspicious of her. She can be so cute sometimes!

Yuuri’s right though, if Lilith went to school with that outfit the whole class would definitely be obsessed with her and it would totally collapse the school lol. I’m glad she made it! Those were some nice outfits. Lilith looks great in everything haha. But I liked that ending, very sweet. Those two are getting along very well, even if Yuuri’s still suspicious of her.

This one trick trope got old REAL fast, they need to splice it up with something, it's not doing it for me. This is bottom of the barrel stuff as far as teasing or shota anime is concerned.

Maybe I'm just not a huge fan of Yuuri's seemingly unshakeable confidence and/or obliviousness.

The trope with teasing and pickup lines are getting tiring. I hoped they put some kind of a new spin and just don't rely on this trope to spice this anime up. I have seen this trope used to a much better extent such as Teasing Master Takagi-san.


I find it amusing that the voice actor of Takagi-san now plays the role of a character that completely fails to tease and seduce an innocent boy.

Hey the POV is on Lilith, glad to know her version of the matter. The fact that she always adjust herself to counter Yuuri's suspicion but it's either a misfire from our boy or Lilith ended up blushing.

Also a very nice suit, Lilith dons it well.

Lilith is super cute as always. A fluffy anime if there ever was one. I don't expect anything from it, and that's exactly my mindset going into these episodes.
So every time I see lilith being cute AF i enjoy it. her design is adorable

I always enjoy watching Lilith blush with Yuuri's indirect confessions and this episode was no different except they got a little closer.

Funny that even Yuuri knows that Lilith's maid outfit is sexy and would make the school collapse lol. Sad that Yuuri's parents died and were usually too busy to spend time with him but glad he got to learn chess from his dad. Lastly, of course Lilith would show up at Yuuri's school and she made his day. Props to Fujisaki for coming in the clutch for an outfit for Lilith. 👍

Lilith wants to be closer with Yuuri, but because of the situations he was still going to be suspicious xd. And in one of those he tells her to play, and Yuuri accepted. They played chess, and from there he had a memory of his parents...it was very nice. And now he has Lilith so he can play whenever.
Yuuri was acting a little weird and Lilith was worried, and it was because at his school they're going to do the thing about relatives coming to watch classes, and he was seeing how to tell her. And she said yes she will go.
The day came, and Yuuri was waiting for Lilith to arrive, and she did arrive. Yuuri was happy that she came.
It was a very good chapter. And yes, Lilith looked beautiful in that uniform <3!

Damn I want to see Lilith in that beautiful pink dress. That flashback of Yuuri's parents, awww cute. Yuuri is a tough boy. I can't imagine losing both of your parents in a car accident at such a young age. Thankfully Lilith is there right beside him now.

So the show takes place in Japan. I thought the set up was somewhere in Europe, but last episode kinda gave it away and this episode confirmed it.

The parents backstory is not so nice because the conclusion is that they neglected him for the most time. His mother didn't want him to disturb his father from working but he did it and in this tiny free moment he was able to learn chess. That is the only game he ever played with him so good family memories like this were rare in Yuuris life. And the mother is also a bad cook. They also did not attend his school meetings. No matter what this could be the reason why Yuuri don't like to rely on adults because of neglection and missing family love from his parents.

And now Lilith plays chess with him for hours and she attended school meetings and the sports festival already in this short time. She is also a good cook, gives him much attention and love. She is a much better caretaker. She fills all the gaps of missing childhood happiness in his life.

This episode's animation was lacking in frames a bit but it's still decent enough.

I'm glad the flashback scene of Yuuri's parents' faces weren't removed like most background stories give.

I'm glad that the two of them are happy with each other.🥰🥰🥰
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.

It's not the outfit, it's that she was there for him what matters. But fr, Lilith should keep wearing the butler uniform, maids are boring.

Flashback to Yuuri's parents.
Tomboy Fujisaki dishes out an extra butler's uniform for Lilith so she can come in place of his parents while not being too noticeable.

I watched this right after Chainsaw Man. I was looking for something sweet to calm down. Maybe I should watch it in the opposite order, because this was a little too sweet.

That flashback was a little too bittersweet and wholesome. Yuri had a really cute mum.
