An Observation Log of My Fiancée Who Calls Herself a Villainess Ep. 5

Heronia is now claiming that Bertia bullies her. My first thought is you need evidence! You can’t just say whatever you want willy-nilly! You need evidence to back up your allegations! Then it zoomed in, so I saw that stupid bird. It’s probably using its dumb charm magic or whatever to sway people to her side. Sure enough, we’ll later find out that this is the case… sorta. So far, Heronia’s charm seems to only work on the boys at the academy. Bertia has gone ahead and even protected the capture targets, so Heronia doesn’t even have the important boys on her side.

The Ramparts of Ice Ep. 5: Of course, the girl ends up apologizing…

Minato wants to get along with everybody. Let’s assume he has good intentions, because I’d hate to think that a kid has anything nefarious in mind (even though this is not entirely out of the question).

I Made Friends with the Second Prettiest Girl in My Class Ep. 4: Hopping on the hate train

After scolding the class, Yuu volunteers to be the other class rep, but Umi swoops in and draws the winning (losing?) lot. Hm, it would’ve been nice if she had defended him. Instead, she gets to have all the fun pairing up with Maki even though Yuu did all the heavy-lifting? Gosh, I dunno about that. Umi then tells Yuu that the latter had gone too far. Huh? Hold on a minute. Hoooooold on. Moments ago, everyone was trashing Maki left and right. Just straight up insulting the guy to his face. How is a little scolding from Yuu “going too far?” What the hell is Umi talking about? She then actually makes Yuu apologize to everyone. My gast has been thoroughly flabbered.

Witch Hat Atelier Ep. 5: A promising start derailed

The girls keep running in circles. They come to the realization that they’re trapped in a very small, enclosed space. Maybe even a pocket dimension! Luckily, what Coco spotted in last week’s episode — y’know, before Agott had her (admittedly valid) crash-out — might just be the Casting Seal keeping them trapped here.
