VerifiedWow, this episode frustrated me again like the last one did. We get to see more of Myne's dynamic with Lutz, and he's starting to really grow on me as a character. What a sweet kid. Looks like the story's progressing toward something, but I still don't know what's gonna happen.

VerifiedLutz is so sweet; I love it when he appears. Although Myne showed some character growth in the previous episode, she’s so focused on her goal that she forgets the obvious: her family needs her to do chores, If she doesn’t speak up, it’s obvious there will be misunderstandigs

This episode got its ups and down. I really like how the family came together to celebrate Turi's baptism, it was wholesome. On the other hand, Myne was acting childish, was she a child before she died? She doesn't really care about anything except for her book, it's frustrating.

Okay this is getting really interesting, but first i just want to say, i liked that Lutz is showing his best boy aura to Myne and their time together warms my heart. And then, something big might be coming or showing on the next episode. Great episodes so far.

At times it feels like the show isn’t fully sure how to handle Myne's character. There’s a noticeable clash between her acting like a child and suddenly offering high-level insight, which makes her portrayal feel uneven.

Another really wholesome episode! I was kinda confused earlier on with all the talking and explanations, but taking it slow actually makes it feel super calming… I’m starting to enjoy just sitting with it more!

I’m still a bit on the fence about the MC’s role as Otto’s assistant. Even if she’s portrayed as a prodigy, it feels logically inconsistent for someone her age to be trusted with that level of responsibility. It kind of breaks immersion.
