I enjoyed it well enough, didn’t drag out for too long. I appreciate a show that doesn’t center conflict around poor communication. Now my Tuesday animes will all be crap glares at Red River and The Oblivious Saint

Me toooo!! Poor Azu, rejected before she even confessed :(

That’s a sinningia muscicola, its pretty compact, super cute, and is basically always in bloom

I have an older post of it in my post history that shows more of it.

When I started out I looked up plants on The Spruce and got tips from there. My first battle was moldy soil, but adding in some things to make it more airy eliminated that problem (I use 1:1:1 soil, pumice, and orchid bark these days).

I got a lot of tips from Reddit before I left with the whole API debacle. Honestly these days I just use Planta (phone app) and water/fertilize every week or two (or 3 or 4 if I’m feeling really lazy) depending on if the soil feels dry and Planta says it’s time.

Whaaaat a cliffhanger! Is it next week yet?

Mine was Azuma’s skip at the end. I just want those two to get together, they’d be so happy!

Reijin’s dance was good! I really enjoyed this episode. I wonder who’s behind the hairpin, I thought it might be Shu but I think she’s too sick to be scheming

At least Azuma seems to be starting to realize her feelings

“I’m really cute today” lol that’s one way to put it… 😬

I built one of my Rolife model kits that’s been hanging around since christmas:

I watched a lot growing up, probably my first one ever was Sailor Moon or My Neighbour Totoro when I was around 5, then as I aged my anime choices slowly evolved (and I was also limited to what was on the TV until around 2003/2004 and started watching streams on whatever site I could find. My first ones that I guess I thought of differently than as an after school cartoon would’ve been Escaflowne in 2002 and Inuyasha in 2003.

I died this whole episode. The cracked phone screen was the cherry on top. I’m really hoping Taira and Azuma date soon!

I’ve actually had people be less pushy about it once I hit my 30’s. Though I still get the occasional “why not?” and “what if your husband changes his mind?” when they ask if I have children. Which is honeslty pretty crazy to me, what if it wasn’t by choice (it is) and now you’re asking “why not?” to someone who wants them but for whatever reason can’t have them.

I’m fortunate enough that my parents and in-laws both don’t bother us about it. They’d love grandkids but know we won’t be having any. The pressure mostly came from coworkers in my 20’s where they’d say “You’ll change your mind” and dismiss my opinions.

This show’s sooo good, it’s just a spectacle to behold. Yousuke is definitely very interesting, it’s like he hit his head in that first episode and then just became his current erratic self.

Yay weekly dose of smiles! They don’t even acknowledge Suzuki’s stained fingers lol.

Anyone else as confused as I am? There’s no way I can keep up with all those factions lol.

One brief conversation is all it takes to get someone’s sworn fealty apparently. The saint is pretty bland and yet everyone is instantly falling in love with her, it’d be nice if she actually did something to warrant everyone’s adoration. She basically just smiles and looks pretty, you could swap her out with a mannequin and get the same effect. Tuesdays are definitely not my favourite day on this anime schedule. I may drop this one too.

I’ll give it another episode or two but this show may be a drop for me. The protagonist is so whiney and impulsive. Like you know this lady controls water, so why not stay away from the massive tub of water when you’re about to invade her place?

Why not wait with the prince who has very reasonably said to wait for the right moment?

Why are you executing the kid when the only 3 people involved don’t want him to die? Just don’t tell anyone it happened?

Why is the prince not telling the protagonist his reasons for keeping her nearby?

So many questions… Maybe it’ll be my love to hate show this season, though there’s a couple contenders right now. I need to go back to Polar Opposites, at least they can communicate effectively :P

The picnic was pretty cute. I think they’re making Vicky a little too perfect though, no one is that perfect. Hopefully they make her a little more human in the coming episodes.
