Prince's eyes when he heard Anis was going to fight the dragon were the eyes of someone who knew all his plans just went up in flames

Completely-out-of-left-field dumb prediction: the prince's new fiancee or someone backing her were somehow responsible for releasing the dragon, it was a ploy to make him look heroic & princely

I think that's only an option if Anis keeps up her streak and seduces the dragon.

Given this is an Isekai I'm not ruling this one out. The genre has a track record of that sort of thing.

Having read the Light novel's I'm enjoying the wild speculation on Laine and welcome the threads response when the anime gets there

Laine is actually the prince this is actually a story where people have strong cases of the genders in addition to being gay.

Watching this is basically everything I love anime for and it has been far too many years since something felt this good in the gay way. Really, not since Yagate Kimi ni Naru.

That was pretty fuckin' hype.

Was absolutely expecting the dragon to be sentient but I'm wondering what the curse is, also what the gently caress is prince up to with the minister and is the curse related somehow.

Yeah that was really all I could of hoped for the Dragon Fight. Good stuff all around and Euphie/Anis danced at the end!

Looks like we start in volume 2 next week and I wonder if we're gonna get the Laine stuff next week. Also the show has kinda of skimmed past some of the reason why people don't like Anis' Magicology and I hope we see it cause it also plays into the politics of the setting

Is one of the reasons that magidrugs turn you into a powerful crazy person that coughs blood but are legal? She can't be the first person to try a mad scientist monster implant either. Anis please stop, you have a magic girlfriend equipped now, you don't have to do this!

Maybe it's one of those things we the audience are meant to kinda infer? At least with this episode my guess would be (a) It gives commoners access to power that before only the nobility had (politics of the setting?). (b) Without the limiters and safety features these items presumably drain something from the user and can kill you? Presumably stamina which is why Anis needed the special drugs? (c) The drugs make you enter basically Barbarian Rage mode turning you into basically an unhinged crazy person.

Presumably this is """legal""" because Anis is literally above the law.

Heeeeeey


I'm sure it's legal much like inventing a new way to dig for stuff is legal, nobody knows about it to regulate it. I mean come on, powdered magicite? If somebody in the kingdom knew about this other than the duo and Anis' apothecary friend somebody would be doing time.

BRB gotta take my Magic Adderall

I will be curious to see if the show follows the obvious political ramifications of giving magical power to commoners, when it's normally the domain of the nobility. Like another poster said, it certainly would be implied by the word "Revolution" in the title, but the show doesn't seem to be going that direction yet.

She started coughing up blood when she took the limiter off I don't think "there are horrible consequences to forcing your body to do magic" is a wild bet.

Maybe it made her super healthy and that was just extra blood. At least having her quest for magic be more of an unhealthy obsession gives Euphie something to work on in their relationship rather than just be rescued

She just had an excess of one of the three humours and was getting them back in balance.

That's actually just a quirk of her being an isekai'd soul, the drugs are to keep that from happening 6 times a day naturally. It's a very serious condition when she could potentially choke on her blood in her sleep.

This week: we finally get introduced to Lainie.

At the rate they’re going, I imagine the anime will wrap up Volume 2 of the LN in about two episodes, leaving the rest of the season to adapt Volume 3

Me watching this episode and seeing Anis's harem grow :haw:

It's also nice to be on the otherside of formula, watching this show there's something in its DNA that reminds me of My Disciple Has Died Again but like a different side of the tropes in question.
