TBF the family resemblance has always been obvious whenever Honoka got drawn in the "high resolution" mode - the sisters defo won a few genetic lotteries. Less of a given that she could talk the talk and walk the walk too, even if she now immediately lost momentum and had a CHARISMA BREAK lel

Putting aside how Honoka went from Nerd to Peak Chad in about one second flat, you kinda have to give Eli brownie points for how she first steered the convo and then just went for it the absolute madlass o3ob

It occurs to me how deliciously ironic it is that on a meta level poor Honoka just can't escape comparisons with her big sis.

I particularly like how for the entire rest of the chapter Honoka is drawn in that "casual" round-faced style, but for the one frame she gets her Kaoruchad on it switches to the refined "high definition" mode.

It's super effective!

What your totem pole analogy literally says is that the king is the least important person in the kingdom, & dukes are slightly less unimportant than him. What do you mean by that?

I can only wonder if you quite understand just how silly this vain attempt at smartassery is making you look...

Or whether you act equally inane around the numerous other similar figures of speech, of which I could rattle off a list of examples off the top of my head.

It's certainly only too apparent that you have neither anything approaching actual arguments nor anything of substance to contribute to the discussion.

One YT comment summarized Iffy as "like having the 4x1 tile in Tetris" which sounds about right. You kind of start looking for "Ifrit Lanes" in maps with her around.

Somehow I doubt a newbie teacher would have much influence over dormitory rooming arrangements...

Hypothesis: the causal relationship is the other way around, Shiro was recruited to snoop on Nekozaki because she has an "inside" access to her through Tsubaki. Which would imply whoever she's working on knows about their relationship and thus has some pretty hefty kompromat on Shiro who thus would not be in much of a position to decline. (In this scenario The Mysterious Snooper would presumably have learned about it through digging into the backgrounds of the people presently around Nekozaki while looking for openings.)

I seriously can't get over the faces Inui makes as she brazenly throws the main pair under the bus lmao

Wow, there's someone here who's racist enough to mock Alaska Natives by appropriating totem poles, while unable to comprehend which part of the structure matters.

@DR2 Hajime Hinata: It is a good ending. There is no need to be fooled by someone who hides behind smart-sounding nonsense to get away with looking down on everyone else.

That's a lot of gratuitous ad hominems and absolutely zero arguments of substance. Your :contribution: has been duly noted, ignored.

Some kind of more figurative meaning perhaps, like how "suit" in English rather varies by context? She is talking about her "appropriate workwear" there after all.

Ducal families weren't the sort of thing you pissed off willy-nilly even if you were a ruling King you know. Those guys were right below the monarchs on the aristocratic totem pole and more to the point before modern centralised states were more often than not practically minor kings themselves in all but name, who could go to open war against their nominal suzerain and win.

Shit - at least one (William the Bastard of Normandy, better known as "the Conqueror") went and conquered himself a whole kingdom on the side which resulted in some pretty complicated feudal relations down the road.

Which would be the "lolpolitics" I referred to earlier. By the sounds of it this match was arranged between the King and the Purpleices for strategic reasons and both oughta have a decent bit of political capital riding on it. The Heir Apparent publicly outing himself as a complete tool isn't particularly going to change the calculus, as his questionable intellect would be an open secret in the court anyway.

You might also note that on the same page Shelphie sighs and mutters about the Maid's "optimism" rather implying it's not nearly as simple as she claims. Something similar can be inferred from the fact that the Prince seems to find it necessary to level fairly serious charges (practically amounting to attempted homicide) against Shelphie in his harebrained gambit to get the engagement annulled implying he can't just nix it without serious leverage either.

^reminder about explicit text around that topic. Take it up with the author for throwing that stuff in and then never having the King call it off.

but the ending was sweet none the less

I don't recall seeing anything about the engagement being called off you know. So Milady's still scheduled for a political marriage to a vain, overprivileged idiot who disliked her to begin with and now doubtless outright hates her.

Did you even read the title? "...Her Engagement was Annulled..."

It's what the dumbass prince declares.

Which is completely irrelevant if the King and the ducal family don't happen to agree, which is likely because lolpolitics.
