2025-10-10 14:19:19 +0000 UTCI really love the plot twists that starts here. it makes this story a lot more intricate and enjoyable. I felt like you guys when i watched it for the first time.

(its also something revealed in a single sentence in the light novel in exactly this chapter, again, no spoilers, just a fun fact): if you pay attention in this episode, his vision while he takes off the monocle is the same even when seen through it, and in fufure episode you can notice: he puts it on the wrong eye. that is correct, his monocle is fake, he just wears it for looks, hes just kinda weird like that

2025-10-06 20:55:19 +0000 UTCYeah you'll never catch me eating pufferfish. Not that I'm afraid of the poisoning so much but just don't have the right tastebuds for seafood ha! For real though I do enjoy Maomao being in this new area and getting to have a good bit more freedom. More mysteries!!

2025-10-06 12:56:07 +0000 UTCI also had to look up the history of the monocle. Because I was curious. Early 1800's Europe, the timeline of the series isn't really set other than it is sort of Imperial China.

2025-10-06 01:24:05 +0000 UTCParboiling is semi-boiling fish in the first step of preparing a fish dish. It doesn't completely cook the fish, just gets it ready for the next step in the recipe. I freely admit that I looked that up. Ad for the monocle man I will say nothing! NOTHING! I have a post it note on my computer "NO SMEGGING SPOILERS!!!"

2025-10-06 01:15:21 +0000 UTCI will say that you double posted this one.

2025-10-06 01:15:09 +0000 UTCI want to say so much, but I know I'll spoil something if I do, so I'm just gonna say that down for the ride! I love this show so much and don't eat puffer fish! LOL! I don't know, I've actually heard it's really good, but I'm a wuss, lol! I will say, I like seeing Maomao in the outer palace. It's a nice change and we're getting even more little mysteries and more Jinshi. I crack up every time I see her smile at him in that one scene! Poor Jinshi! LOL! I love them! Also, helicopter parent is a good description of his attendant!

2025-10-06 01:10:24 +0000 UTCto parboil is to partially cook food by boiling it for a short time 16:04 Jinshi.exe has overloaded, reboot required.22:52 Oh there is a very shady character you've seen twice (not Lakan) lots of things going on in the background that are slowly coming to a boil. Check your notes (you are taking notes, right?) little seeds have been dropped.
