At least Pride didn't order Val to kill her if she gets out of hand... although I suppose that is the thrust of the "protect Tiara" loophole.

Also, extra Bakarina points to Pride for not understanding why Arthur had to defeat the entire knight corps to become her bodyguard.

Pretty cool plan, particularly for giving them an excuse to use their younger designs again. Koji Yusa playing Shota Gilbert was kind of funny.

Oh hey, it's MAO!

Ha! Did they actually just have Yuma Uchida as Powell so they could have a scene where his big sister saves him (Maaya Uchida is the voice of Stale)? That can't be a coincidence. I think this is like the 3rd or 4th show Yuma and Maaya have been in together. And speaking of which, anybody watching MIX?

Everybody was just waiting for Pride's moment to show off, and it was glorious.

Are we about to be introduced to the main antagonists next week?

What a sweet, hopeful, kind-hearted anime! I loved it, and I hope for a second season. Pride is one of my favorite characters now.

Well, let's see if Episode 13 brings more foot-licking and friendship

I thought episode 12 was the final episode?

Correct! Episode 12 IS the season finale. Hopefully Jacki will see this and amend her review soon.

This isn't my favorite Villainess anime, and I feel like the story is still in the waiting/introductory phase, but the cast were likeable, Pride was a very compelling and capable Heroine, and there were some surprisingly poignant moments across the series. I would've liked a little more romance but Pride making everyone crush hard on her was fun.

Pride's insistence that she was going to turn evil again despite numerous changes to the timeline did start to get a little old.

Surprised they didn't end on a time-skip to the game timeline.
