Intersting though how Lilia seems to be relieved to find out that Rudy married Sylphie.

The LN mentions that Lilia was mentoring Sylphie in etiquette so she would grow up with confidence as a lady to attract Rudy when he got back from tutoring Eris, so she's happy to learn her efforts were successful.

The LN explains that Zenith's religion doesn't believe in polygamy and she is very pious. So it was a deeper betrayal than just of marital fealty.

I am irrationally excited for Roxy's return; goddamn this episode ending HURT. The wait for next week is going to be literal torture.

Can't remember if they mentioned this in the anime, but in the LN it's mentioned that Lilia mentored Sylphie in the ways of etiquette while Rudy was away with Eris in order for her to gain confidence as a lady in preparation for when Rudy returned, so Lilia's relief was one of satisfaction that her guidance must have paid off.

Got another recommendation for you I totally forgot about; Hi-Score Girl. Classic boy meets girl story but with the backdrop of fighting games from the 90s. One of my absolute favorites post-MGX.

MGX is really unique, but the closest show I watched that gave me similar vibes is The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses https://myanimelist.net/anime/54234/Suki_na_Ko_ga_Megane_wo_Wasureta

Similar to MGX, the female lead has a quirk about her that the male lead can't help but become curious about and their interactions are really fun to watch as they become closer to one another. Check it out!

Haha and I still love MGX to this day! Can't believe reddit still has my comments from 12 years ago, wow. Well, I'm happy you're able to find some new anime to watch! :)

I use a q-tip and some isopropyl alcohol.

Same; manga's been great and really looking forward to the anime, despite the inevitable toning down of the lewd.

I know what you mean, I've been thoroughly enjoying this show and I really hate it's coming to an end. No idea how popular it is overall so I'm not going to hold my breath for a season 2 announcement but BOY HOWDY do I want one.

Why? Are they publicly traded now or something?

Tao is quickly climbing up the ranks for me as Best Girl this season, and that pic might just cinch it.

My life was never the same after MonMosu. The lack of a season 2 continues to depress me.

Love this so much! More Pandoria art is always welcome <3

I think you're right. It's a shame though, because I've grown so attached to the casts of the trilogy, and as I'm currently halfway into Future Redeemed, I find myself wishing the game would be more explicit about how its main cast relates to the cast of prior games (or heck, just tell us what happened to the ones that are missing in FR). Like I understand they want new players to be able to follow the story but for diehard fans who've been with the series since day 1, I wish they'd have thrown us more of a bone.

Rys & Flio Hug

TFW you will never have a lupine waifu to hug from behind.

I know right? Sure she'd be "plain" if she compares herself to Pearl but Nel has nothing to be ashamed of.

Definitely a once in a decade type show; I love it so much.

Every time I see her cry, from the first time when she was being bullied to now, my chest gets tight and I want to reach into my TV and hug her. Poor girl's been through so much and she now has to deal with a pregnancy without her husband for an extended period. How can you not feel for her?

Watching Sylphie watch Rudeus leave caused a lotta onion cutting ninjas to show up to day. Really, really, really hope she will be OK while Rudy is gone.

Glad Rudy was able to resist temptation from the succubus and Laine. That couldn't have been easy.
