| They're really pushing Yumiella with responsibilities in this show, not that it's surprising or anything given how she's the main star in this show. We also got some outdoors competition and activites this time around. Not sure how I feel about the Alice and Yumiella's relationship yet..the two are so different from one another. Then again, I guess they're trying to build more into Yumiella's character more and more. |
 |
| Yumelia's training tactics are to much for most people in this world it seems. Judging from the reactions their are those that want to get stronger but they aren't willing to sacrifice their safety to get stronger unlike Yumelia who thinks sacrifice is necessary to get stronger. Her fundamentals are just to different from the rest. As for her reputation it's not just her strength but also her personality that creates it. I have to say tho the prince and his group make it worse their way of dealing with Yumelia shows their lack of maturity but it isn't just that they way they are acting right now makes one wonder if they are truly fit to be in a leading role. |
| Alicia's reasoning for Yumiella being the Demon Lord because Edwin told her so, it's because of her black hair. But other than that, it's quite a baseless and strange argument, though Yumiella wants to keep the return a secret, and Edwin...just runs his mouth in typical royalty fashion. That said, with Yumiella being here, she's not the Demon Lord, and the other princes William and Oswald are complete idiots to think that they can defeat her. In the same sense, training them would help improve her reputation and trust in her, and her barrage of how to level up is quite the infodump, it feels like she's mocking them all. Also, Alicia being a reincarnation may be possible as well given her change in stature, but all that Yumiella finds is that...she's just as what the gameplay has given, except the response itself, which scares of both humans and animals. Once again, Edwin reinforces to Alicia that it's wrong to assume Yumiella as the Demon Lord, though her perception is quite the surprise. The new headmaster Ronald who has taken over the position, is also aware of the Demon Lord's return, though Yumiella is confirmed that she's not the one. Regardless, something feels sus about Ronald, but that Yumiella doesn't know what, it's a mystery for now. Still, with the field lessons that Ronald asked her to supervise regional nobles increasing their levels to 40 before graduation, Yumiella wants a further 60 like Captain Adolf. Until then, all of this feels like a stretch, and with another classmate of Patrick Ashbatten that she can converse with, she pushes further with the Monster-Calling Flute and even with her own dark magic, though that puts her on the line of Patrick's chagrin. Patrick's involvement with Yumiella, it creates a flutter of emotions...and she's quite the player to force people to her call. |

| Once Patrick got introduced it got more interesting, thankfully because I was getting annoyed at those three nobles. Yumiella keeping using that flute and not getting it why the group weren't happy was funny. CGI monsters looked rough. |
I have no idea how it played out in the LN, but in the manga that scene was a lot more panicky and imo funnier. Bit of a bummer how stiff and stoic they both are in the anime.    |
 |
| Ah, the frequent trope of the female lead's reincarnation in the FL genre, a common theme in Otome Isekai. From a social perspective, it might be wise to mix up the groups. And Ronald's deadpan level is nearly as amusing as Yumeilla's. |
 |
| CGI budget not found. Proceed to ask free AI software for few monsters. |
| I'd prefer it without this guy. I knew someone will appear eventually I guess... I hope they won't go too much into romance though. |
| Can I just destroy the three idiots and save Alicia from their bad influence?! Dear Alicia is getting corrupted by their filthy delusions... 😖 I definitely enjoyed the spamming of the flute. Yumiella is getting better as a character. P.S. I shouldn't have read the web novel ending spoiler. 😖 P.S. #2 I really dislike adding a love interest this early in the story, especially if it's not a romance-focused story. It irks me just thinking about it. Yumiella need some headpats.  |

| 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. |

| @felixsifuri wow that was a horrible delivery... I felt like that scene lacked something but the sucked all the soul out of it... |
| - we got the explanation to why they thing Yumi might be the demon lord, specially since Alicia sees her with a dark aura - prince knows that she isn't the dark lord, but is dumb enough to tell everyone about it... baka ouji - well after Yumi told everyone about the flute method, makes sense to see her using it to help them LOL what a fun last 5 minutes - Patrick is good at leadership, unlike baka ouji |
favorite "new girls" from fall 2024 <3 (yeah i didn't watch much in 2025...) ... click sig for older seasons  |
| Sadly, this is going to turn romance focused. What a shame. |

| @felixsifuri doesn't seem that different to me |
 |
| People in this realm are real wimps! Ah the CGI monsters terror, enough to fill a lifetime of nightmares! Dark healing also repairs fabric apparently 😅 |
| Someone should just make that meme of the trumpet boy but replace the trumpet boy with Yumiella blowing the monster calling flute and the girl as Patrick. |
| “The demon lord is returning in 2 years, only a few people know that” lmao proceeds to tell the entire cafeteria. The prince is so dumb Matter of fact all the guys are dumb in this show lmao. Why do they keep antagonising someone who can kill them instantly. Then when they ask how she got so strong and she tells them to go into the dungeon they bitch about that too. yumiella can’t win 🤦🏽♂️. Happens irl too. People will ask you how you got something and then you explain and they say it’s too much work or they don’t wanna do it, but still jealous of you lol. Well we know Alicia isn’t another isekaiee now. She and Edwin are getting on really well for a commoner and royalty. It’s interesting seeing an otome where that doesn’t even come up, everyone is so hyper fixated on Yumiella that it’s not an issue in this one lol. It’s funny seeing how to Alicia, Yumiella is like this ball of evil energy because of her dark magic. After how he treated his brand new student on her first day, principal definitely deserved to be sacked but I think the new guy the king appointed is just as weird. Clearly hiding a lot behind that smile. Guess this is the king and queen following up on their conversation from last week about changing the culture at the academy Field exercise time to help the students level up, likely in anticipation of the coming battle against the demon lord’s forces. Yumiella notices the potential inefficiencies of this drill and takes things into her own hands with the demon flute. Patrick and the student’s reactions to her constantly blowing the flute and calling reinforcements was brilliant lol. She’s such a troll. But at least she held the monsters down so the students could take them out at their own leisure. Like getting carried by your friend in a game Speaking of Patrick, it’s no surprise Yumiella is so taken by him so soon. He’s the first guy to actually treat her like a girl. Protecting her from the beast even though she’s clearly the strongest on the field and how he just has normal strategic convos with her. He understands the ins and outs of things in a way she hasn’t seen anyone do yet. Looking forward to seeing them interact more. Anyone who can make Yumiella blush is good in my book Another fun episode |

| Yumiella, the embodiment of the classic "high Int, low Wis". :D |
 |
| Finally a decent male classmate, big fan of Patrick, he seems like a nice guy, talented on combat and with impressive leadership skills. That was pretty funny about the healing spells of Dark Magic, Yumiella was a bit on the villainous side with her tough teaching methods. |
| I'm about to rip my hair out with how dumb and ridiculous the 3 "love interests" are but thank god Patrick finally came in. Assumed he would be normal based on his appearance coming in the OP/ED (can't remember i apologize) and so far he seems like he'll keep my sanity in check anyway great on yumiella lol looks like she'll forcefully level up the nobles whether they like it or not |
| whats with the blonde girl in the ed is she Eds sister making her the princess also romantic environment created |
 |
| Those three noble guys are actually annoying. I genuinely despise them. Patrick getting introduced is probably the best thing to happen with the show, I'm gonna be honest. Dark Bind sounds like an XP glitch that anyone could use to their advantage. The fact that you could ask Yumiella to tie down monsters for you to get an easy kill would make you level up so fast. Demon Lord has no chance, none at all. |
 |
| YAY Enter Patrick~! Yaaaaaay! Gotta LOL at the end with her blowing the flute nonstop. PS: UGH, it's always painful seeing the "romanceables" flock around the "Otome MC" with this 3rd person viewpoint....totally looks like mind control |
:3 |
| So many things to say here! She said the line! She said the name of the show! I really really hope they do the based Claymore thing and have them be friends instead of forcing romance into this.. I was so glad to find an Otome show without romance.. The 3 boys are insufferable, how can they be this stupid? How can they even try to pick a fight after they got their asses handed? Have they no shame? Especially after Ed already got a good scolding by his parents. I want Yumiella to talk some sense into them. The literal king and queen had to apologize for his stupidity before, I think she should just tease him with that a little. Even worse since she is essentially getting bullied by their pure stupidity, after the class started opening up to her.. That is a pretty efficient and safe way to level, I guess they dont get combat experience, but that can come after they have the basic strength to use it! Also dark magic can heal?! Op please nerf. |

| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would describe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| Quite a fun episode, the cliffhanger of the last episode wasn't much trouble and the story is progressing a bit, with the introduction of Patrick, who's the only non asshole/scared shit towards Yumiella lmao. My favourite part was when she saw the cat and she seemed excited but kept her apathetic face XD. |
| I like everything, ok |
| Well she actually said the name of the show in this episode, we can all go home now lol. This was a funny one tho, I especially got a kick out of Yumiella just throwing caution to the wind when it came to the monster calling whistle lol, it was cool seeing the students use a formation and coordinating attacks the first time but then it just got goofy, it’s kinda reminiscent of a veteran player carrying blueberries in a game lol. And I’ll say the CGI monsters looked pretty shit but they didn’t hurt the scene that much for me. We also met Patrick officially in this one, he seems like a cool lad but I’m sure his introduction to Yumiella was a ride lol, I’m definitely looking forward to more moments between the two of them. And lastly we got some more insight on why Alicia thought Yumiella was the demon lord, it must be weird seeing a shadowy creature instead of a cute girl lol, and of course there’s also the possibility she’s reincarnated too but I feel like that might be a red herring, too early to tell. |
| xD I knew she'd blow that horn a third time but I didn't expect her to do it a fourth and I think I heard a fifth time too xD Great end to a great ep. |
| THAT'S RIGHT PROTAGONIST, xp farm, that's good, evolve everyone and don't depend on the annoying guys |
| hello, just a brazilian boy who likes anime |
| the four "heroes" of the game are really a buncha useless nitwits. yumiella's interactions with patrick's much more interesting. also, that new principal's sus, and i still think alicia's not worth putting her guard down. |
       |
| that one group is going to be buff as hell by the end. seems like she found a kindred spirit in patrick. |

| @felixsifuri Well, in the manga, the dynamic nature is emphasized by the presence of around five panels, numerous onomatopoeias, and diverse postures and perspectives. However, in the anime, they adhered to one or two plans but stick with the plan of the second screen you sended. It seems they didn't pay much attention to that particular scene and opted to save some frames on this part. |
