【海外の反応】ふつつかな悪女9話、「皇太子が自分の宮廷でほとんど影響力ないの、ほんと笑える」

玲琳が皇后になったとしても、現実的に考えてどっちも死なずに健康な子どもを産めるのか？皇后の次の位の妃になるほうが、長い目で見れば勝てる見込みが高いと思う。

Even if Reiren becomes the Empress, could she realistically give birth to a healthy child without one of them dying? Being the top consort next to the Empress has a good chance of winning in the long term.

体が入れ替わってでもいない限り、妊娠に耐えられるかすら怪しい

>>1

Doubt she'd even survive pregnancy unless body-swapped

でもこいつが、みんなが言ってるとおりの黒幕なら、ここで死んでおくべきだったんじゃないか？

but if she is behind what anons say she's behind, maybe she should have died here?

何もかもの黒幕ってわけじゃない。黒幕なのは玲琳の呪いだけ。妹を生き返らせるために玲琳を生贄にしたがってるから。

>>3

She's not behind EVERYTHING, just behind [spoiler]Reirin's curse because she wants to sacrifice her to revive her sister.[/spoiler]

>お前のネタバレ
その可能性は前にこのスレで言ったことあるけど、本当にそうだったのか？

>>4

>your spoiler
I've mentioned that as a possibility in these threads previously, did it actually turn out to be true?

>破魔の弓で慧月を呪いから救う
>でも今回は効かない、呪いを返せるのは呪いだけだから
よく分からん。説明のどこか聞き逃した？

>uses the Bow of Warding to save Keigetsu from a curse
>oh but this time it won't work because only a curse can counter a curse
I don't get it. Did I miss something in the explanation?

小説と漫画だと、元の呪いは弓で壊されたんじゃなくて、絹秀のほうに移っただけなんだよ。アニメがなんでそこを変えたのかは分からん。

>>6

In the LN and manga, the original curse wasn't destroyed by the bow, it just moved on to Kenshuu instead. No idea why the anime changed that.

考えてみると、朱貴妃ってけっこう詰んでないか？
慧月の呪い返しが自分に跳ね返ってきて、しかも破魔の弓じゃ呪いは解けないんだから、一生あのままってことにならない？

>>7

thinking about it, Noble Shu is kind of f****d, isn't she?
[spoiler]Keigetsu's counter curse reflected back to her, and since the Bow of Warding cannot break curse, isn't she doomed to live like that forever?[/spoiler]

俺は単に、玲琳がぶっ倒れるまで矢を射続けるより、呪い返しのほうが効率がいいって意味だと思ってた。あのひ弱な体でそもそも耐えられるのかって話もあるし。でも……
なるほど、それは大きいな。

>>6 >>7

I just assumed she meant countercursing was more efficient than Reirin shooting till she keels over, if her weaker body can even handle it. But...

Well that's significant.

この作品の何がこんなに面白いんだろうな？いまだによく分からんけど、今期でいちばん楽しいのは間違いない。今期ベストとまでは言わないけど、それに近いところにはいるし、何の期待もせずに見始めたんだよ。

What is it about this show that makes it so fun? I still don't get it, but it's definitely the most fun show of this season. Not necessarily AOTS, but it's up there, and I picked it up without any expectations.

普通の作品なら大きな真相が明かされるまでに3期と劇場版くらいかかるのに、ここは展開がめちゃくちゃ速い！作者が自分で書いた設定や、物語の前提がひっくり返る仕掛けを、怖がらずにちゃんと使って遊んでるのがいいんだよな。そこが面白さだと思う。

>>10

A normal show would take 3 seasons and a movie to show the big reveal, but things are going so fast here! I like how the author is not afraid to actually play around with and use the premise and paradigm shifts they wrote into the story. That makes it quite fun in my opinion.

俺にとっては今期ベストだわ
これ。テンポが最高。入れ替わってからまだ9日しか経ってないなんて信じられん

>>10 >>11

it's AOTS for me

this, the pacing is fantastic, hard to believe they've only covered 9 days since the swap

>テンポ
このスレを覗いてて、昨日見始めたばかりなんだよ。8話まで一気見した。今は仕事に行くところだから9話はまだ見られない。すごく楽しい作品だ。

>>12

>pacing
I literally picked up the show yesterday after lurking this thread, binged 8 episodes. I can't watch the 9 right now 'cause I'm about to go to work. Very fun ride.

>原作小説がどれくらいの長さか調べようとWikiを見たら、まだ続いてた
アニメ勢だから、てっきり1期で終わる完結済みの作品だと本気で思ってた。全部まとまっていく感じだったし。続きを読むなら完結するまで待たないとダメだな。

>went to the wiki page to see how long the LN was and it's still ongoing
As an anime only, I genuinely though it was just a finished series with a 1 season deal since it seems like everything was wrapping up. Guess I do actually need to wait until it's over before reading more.

あれだけキャラを出しておいて、まともに掘り下げたのは4人くらいだからな。どう見てもまだまだ話は続くよ。

>>14

They introduced so many characters and only gave characterization to like 4 of them, so clearly there's a lot more to tell.

>ひ弱な玲琳の体に入った慧月に中庭を走り回らせる
アホすぎる。

>making keigetsu in reirin's frail body run around the courtyard
So stupid.

玲琳の体を玲琳より
よく知ってる人がいる？

>>16

Who knows Reirin’s body better
than Reirin?

慧月が運動不足なのは分かってるし、玲琳は自分の体が完全になまらないようにしてるだけだろ。

>>16

We know Keigetsu isn't exercising enough, Reirin is just making sure her body doesn't become completely rusty.

玲琳の体はどっちが入っても似合うのに、慧月の体は地味ってのは不公平だなと思ってた。でもこの絵の元の慧月、めちゃくちゃいいな

I was thinking how it's unfair that Reirin's body looks good on both of them, but Keigetsu's is bland. But god damn, OG Keigetsu looks so good in this pic

慧月（中身も体も）が表情と仕草の使い方を本当に身につけたら、もう誰も敵わない。

>>19

If Keigetsu (soul+body) actually learns how to make the best use of her expressions and body language, it's all over.

あとは根性さえあればな。

>>20

All she needs is some grit.

朱慧月は魂が美しいから、どの体に入っても似合うんだよ。

>>19

Shu Keigetsu has a beautiful soul that looks good in whatever fleshbag she's wearing.

玲琳もそう思ってる

>>22

Reirin thinks so too

俺だけか？慧月の肌の色、話によってブレてない？
最初はかなり褐色（日焼け）だった気がするのに、玲琳がずっと畑仕事してたわりに、今の玲琳（慧月の体）はほとんど玲琳並みに色白になってる。

Is it just me or is Keigetsu inconsistently brown?
I feel like she started off pretty brown (tanned) but despite Reirin working in the fields the whole time she's nearly as fair as Reirin (Keigetsu) now.

アニメで慧月の肌が浅黒いのは、たぶん演出上の判断だな。玲琳や他の妃たちとの違いをはっきり見せるためだろう。

>>24

Keigetsu's swarthier skin tone in the anime is in all likelihood a directional choice to more strongly contrast her with Reirin and the other maidens.

慧月は世界でいちばんかわいい女の子だ。誰かが慧月を悲しませたら、そいつを始末するだけじゃなくて、そいつの親族にも罪を償わせてやる

keigetsu is the most cutestest girl in the world and if anyone dares to make her sad, I would not only murder them but their relatives will also suffer for their mistakes

お前にも呪い、お前にも呪い、みんなに呪いだ！

>>26

You get a curse, you get a curse, everyone gets a curse!

>そいつを始末するだけじゃなくて
玲琳は実際にそう言ってたし、慧月を傷つけようとした奴を、間接的か直接的かはともかく始末してたはず
>そいつの親族にも罪を償わせてやる
それは絶対やらない。玲琳は悪女であって怪物じゃない

>>26

>, I would not only murder them
Reirin did say this and I'm pretty sure she indirectly/directly killed someone who dared harm keigetsu
>but their relatives will also suffer for their mistakes
She'll never do that, she's a villainess not a monster

玲琳って病弱な猫猫だよな。
許してやれよ。男勝りの女に負けて、太っちゃったんだから、罰としてはもう十分だ。

Reirin is just sickly Maomao.

Forgive her, anon. Losing to a tomboy and becoming a fattie are enough punishment for her.

猫猫のアニメ（『薬屋のひとりごと』）って見る価値ある？人気っぽいから見ようか迷ってるけど、普段は超常的な要素がある作品のほうが好きなんだよな。

>>29

Is Maomao's show worth watching? I've considered watching it because it seemed popular but I usually prefer some supernatural element.

別タイトル：『薬屋のひとりごと』の待合室

>>29

alternative title: Apothecary's Waiting Room

アニメ、慧月の体に入った玲琳に尭明が「お前を信用することは決してない」って言う場面まで削ってるのか
第1部の尭明を、なんとかして受けのいいキャラにしようと必死だな

Man, the anime even removed the part where Gyoumei tells Reirin in Keigetsu's body that he will never trust her
They're really doing everything they can to make Arc 1 Gyoumei more marketable

正直、「玲琳」を裏切らないために彼女に冷たくしてたのは、別に嫌な奴だとは思わないけどな。

>>32

tbqh being cold to her to not betray "Reirin" doesn't make me think of him as an asshole.

冷たかったことが問題なんじゃない。肝心なときに、3度目も公正な判断ができなかったことが問題なんだよ。最初の2回は許せたけど、この時点じゃ彼女を疑う正当な理由なんてなかったし、せめて誰か別の者にやらせるって申し出るべきだった。

>>33

It wasn't the cold part, it was the inability to make a fair judgement for the 3rd time in a time of need. The first two were forgivable, but at this point he had no valid reason to doubt her or at least offer to have someone else do it.

これって百合？

Is this yuri?

玲琳は慧月にしか興味ないけど、慧月のほうはほぼノンケ。

>>35

Reirin is Keigetsusexual while Keigetsu is mostly straight.

慧月が玲琳にとって初めての友達だったとしても驚かない

>>36

I wouldn't be surprised if keigetsu is also reirin's first friend

何をもって百合とするかは人それぞれだな。

>>35

Depends on what you would personally qualify as yuri.

まさにこういう感じのアニメ、他にある？

>>38

animes for this exact feel?

この人だろ。誰だったか忘れたけど（宮女が多すぎて覚えきれない）、しゃべり方が回りくどすぎて字幕があっても理解できない。もう何か理解したいなら漫画を読むわ。

Her. I forgot who she is (too many court ladies to keep track of) but her speech mannerism is so convoluted as to be incomprehensible, even with subtitles. At this point I'll just read the manga if I want to understand anything.

で、この慧月って結局は救済されるの？
莉莉にあんなひどい扱いをしてたのに？

so does this keigatsu get a redemption arc ta all?
even though she treated leelee like absolute s**t?

元に戻ったあとの二人のやり取りを見てみないと。慧月は玲琳に心から平謝りしてたし、ありえるかもな。漫画のページを見る限り、莉莉は引き続き彼女に仕えてるみたいだし。

>>41

We'll have to see how their interactions go after switching back. Keigetsu groveled sincerely to Reirin, so maybe. Especially since Leelee continues serving her, going by manga pages.

莉莉と慧月は原作小説の後半で仲が深まるよ。二人のやり取りはあんまり掘り下げられないけど

>>41

Leelee and Keigetsu get closer later in the LN, though their interaction aren't focused on much

横からだけど、二人の間のわだかまりってちゃんと描かれるの？それともスルーされる？

>>43

nta but do they actually address the tension between the two or does it get ignored?

なんで玲琳は莉莉を買い取らなかったんだ？莉莉がどんな目に遭ってきたか知ってるのに。莉莉の心が真っ二つに裂けたコマを特定できそうなくらいだったぞ（泣）

Why didn't Reirin just buy Leelee? She knows what she went through. I could almost pinpoint the exact frame where her heart ripped in half [spoiler];_;[/spoiler]

>なんで玲琳は莉莉を買い取らなかったんだ？
朱家を回していくには慧月に莉莉が必要だって分かってるからだよ

>>45

>Why didn't Reirin just buy Leelee?
Because she knows Keigetsu needs Leelee to run the Shu household

>莉莉を買い取る
あのな、扱いはああでも一応は貴族の宮女なんだぞ。奴隷みたいに売り買いできるわけじゃない。

>>45

>buy Leelee
Anon, even though she isn't treated like it she's still a noble court lady, she can't just be bought and sold like a slave.

要するに、今の流れなら玲琳がその気になれば何とでも手を回せるってこと。慧月は玲琳に借りがあるし、雅媚もそろそろ窮地に立たされそうだし、朱家のほかの使用人たちなんて莉莉を追い出したも同然だし。

>>47

The point is Reirin could arrange something if she wanted, with how things are going. Keigetsu owes her, Gabi's about to be in hot water too, and the other Shu staff practically drove Leelee out anyway.

今回は尭明が本当に気の毒だった。入れ替わりを知ったのが最悪のタイミングだったんだから。
それにしても金麗雅はほんと最悪だな。口を開けば毒しか出てこない。

I feel so bad for Gyoumei this episode. He had to find out about the switch at the absolute worst time.
And oh boy is Kin Reiga the absolute worst, poison dripping from her very lips.

＞それにしても金麗雅はほんと最悪だな。口を開けば毒しか出てこない。
出てくるたびに、どんどん腐りきった人間だってことが分かっていく。

And oh boy is Kin Reiga is the absolute worst, poison dripping from her very lips.
The more we see of her the more we see how rotten she is.

前回、皇后が「純」妃をやり込めたのはちょっとやりすぎかと思ったけど、20年もあれをやられてたなら、そりゃそうなるわ！

I thought the empress was a little heavy handed in the smack down to the "pure" consort last episode but if 20 years of that oh heck no!

子を亡くして悲しみに暮れる朱雅媚に金麗雅がひどい仕打ちをしたことが、雅媚が金家にも復讐の矛先を向けている理由なんだろうな。「玲琳」と絹秀への蠱毒の呪いも、「慧月」暗殺を企てた雅容の件も金家の仕業に見せかけることで、雅媚は標的（金家と黄家）の間に大混乱を引き起こしてる。互いに潰し合わせておいて、自分は表向き潔白なまま絹秀から皇后の座を奪う。天才的な一手だよ。

Kin Reiga’s toxicity toward the grieving Shu Gabi after she lost her baby is likely the reason why Gabi is also targeting the Kin clan for revenge. By framing the Kin family for the venomcraft curse on "Reirin" and Kenshuu, as well as for Lady Gayou's plot to assassinate "Keigetsu", Gabi is sowing massive disarray between her targets (the Kin and Kou clans). It’s a genius move to make them destroy each other while she claims the throne from Kenshuu while appearing completely clean in public.

先代たちの揉め事のせいで、今こんなゴタゴタに付き合わされてる若い世代の雛女たちが気の毒だわ。

I feel bad for the younger generation of maidens who are now dealing with all this B.S. because of their predecessors' drama.

玲琳がうっかり始めちゃった虫のデスゲームなんてギャグシーンが、まさか皇后の命を救う重要な伏線になるとは。
このアニメ良すぎる。

I can't believe the joke scene of the Insect Hunger Games Reirin accidentally created is now a crucial plot point to save the Empress's life.
This show is too good.

＞玲琳がうっかり始めちゃった虫のデスゲームなんてギャグシーンが、まさか皇后の命を救う重要な伏線になるとは。
だよな？見事なチェーホフの銃だよ。慧月が「蜘蛛を捕食する虫のはず」って言ってたから、玲琳が知らずに育て上げたのはスーパームカデなんじゃないかと思ってる。

I can't believe the joke scene of the Insect Hunger Games Reirin accidentally created is now a crucial plot point to save the Empress's life.
Right? A Chekhov's gun if I've seen one. Since Keigetsu said it should be a bug that preys on spiders, I imagine it'll be a super centipede what Reirin unintentionally raised.

まさにムカデ映画（センチシネマ）、完全制圧。

Absolute Centicinema and Domination.

同じく。そこそこの悪女ものかと思ってたら、出来の良さにも、キャラ全員にここまで入れ込んでる自分にも本気で驚いてる

Same here, i thought this would be a decent villainess show but im genuienly surprised at how good it is and how much im invested in all the characters

この作品には悪女がたくさんいる――しかも、そうだと思わされてた人物とは限らない。なかなか巧妙な脚本だよ。
今回、本来の慧月は思ってたよりずっと好印象だった。

Lots of villainesses here -- and not necessarily the one we were led to believe it would be. Pretty sneaky writing.
In this episode, OG Keigetsu is coming off a lot better than one might have expected.

「殿下がご決断なさったのは承知しております。ですが、愚かなご決断ですので、無視することにいたしました」

"I recognize the Prince made a decision, but given that it's a stupid decision, I have elected to ignore it."

玲琳が真顔で淡々とした声になって、尭明に「もううんざり」って突きつけてそのまま出ていった場面、最高だった。間違いなく今回のベストシーンで、めちゃくちゃかっこよかった！
だから、そのあと慧月と話して自分の言動を恥ずかしがっちゃったのはもったいないと思う。

I loved that moment when Reirin got that deadpan expression and voice, basically told Gyoumei that she's fed up with him, and just walked out. It was definitely the best part of this episode, she was so cool then!
So I find it a shame that she later got embarrassed over her actions and words, once she talked to Keigetsu.

まあ、全部を自分でやる必要はないってのは事実だし、殿下が断ったのも彼女の体を心配してのことでもあったからねw

Well it is true that she needn't do everything and part of the Prince's refusal was worry over her health XD

皇太子が自分の宮廷でほとんど影響力ないの、ほんと笑える
「丁重にお願いしましたよね（3回も！）、だからすっこんでてください殿下、私は許可なんて要らない自立した強い女なので」
「お、おう、まあいいけど」

it's really funny how little influence the crown prince has in his own court
"i tried asking nicely (three times!), so go eat dirt your majesty i'm a strong independent woman who don't need no permission"
"wow, uh, fine i guess"

＞皇太子
むしろ道化太子だろw 四六時中玲琳にデレデレで、彼女のために宮廷のほかの人間はそっちのけなのに、術の水鏡を見るまで入れ替わってることに気づきもしなかった。

crown prince
More like Clown Prince lmao. He gushes over Reirin 24/7 and ignores the rest of his court for her but didn't even notice she was swapped until he saw a magic water reflection.

『ふつつかな悪女』は今、日本でめちゃくちゃ力を入れてる。池袋のサンシャインシティプリンスホテルとのコラボで『ふつつかな悪女』のコンセプトルームまでやってて、いつものグッズのポップアップショップや短編集も出てる（幼い玲琳が兄たちや叔母に寝かしつけのお話をしてもらう話はコミカライズされる予定）。
これだけ力を入れてるんだから、2期、いやそれ以上があってもいいはずだ。
あと公式サイトに、皇后と玲琳の兄の公式誕生日イラストが上がってたよ。

The Inept Villainess franchise is going all out ATM in Japan; they were able to get a collaboration with the Sunshine City Prince Hotel in Ikebukuro for an Inept Villainess themed room together with the usual merchandise pop up shops and short story collections (the one featuring little Reirin being told bedtime stories by her brothers and aunt is getting a manga adaptation).
With all the efforts they are putting in, it seems only fair they should get a S2 and maybe even more.
Also, some official birthday art of the Empress and Reirin's brother from the official website.

まだ登場すらしてないキャラ（玲琳の兄）のデザインを公開するってのは、かなり意味深だと思う。

I would definitely say releasing a design for a character we haven't even seen yet (Reirin's brother) is pretty telling.

これ以上は言わないけど、兄たち（特にそのうちの一人）は私の好きなキャラの上位に入る。

I won't say anything more, but the brothers (especially one of them) are among my favorite characters.

＞池袋のサンシャインシティプリンスホテルとのコラボで『ふつつかな悪女』のコンセプトルームまでやってて
慧月は毒を盛られるんじゃないかと警戒してるのか……それとも月餅ってなんだろうって思ってるのかw

they were able to get a collaboration with the Sunshine City Prince Hotel in Ikebukuro for an Inept Villainess themed room
Keigetsu is either worried she's about to be poisoned, or... wondering what a mooncake is hahaha

慧月「これ、毒入ってないわよね？私の死を望む人間って意外と多いのよ」
玲琳「ご安心ください慧月さま、私が毒見して差し上げます！」
慧月「こ、こ、これがいわゆる間接キスってやつ！？」

Keigetsu: "This isn't poisoned right? There are a surprising amount of people who want me dead."
Reirin: "Don't worry Keigetsu-sama, I'll check it for poison for you!"
Keigetsu: "I-i-is this what they call an indirect kiss!?"

尭明や絹秀と雅媚の過去のドロドロが話題になってるのは分かるけど、慧月の体に入った玲琳がフィジカル面でとんでもない怪物になってるのが、どうしても笑えてしまう。

I know people are talking about Gyoumei and drama of Kenshuu and Gabi's past but I just can't help but find it funny at how much of a physical juggernaut Reirin in Keigetsu's body is.

あんなひ弱な体で、どれだけの間か分からないくらい真剣に武術の鍛錬を続けてきたんだもんな。ずっと付けてた重りを外したようなもんだよ！

She's been earnestly practicing martial arts in such a weak body for who knows how long. It's like we've removed the weights holding her back this entire time!

＞慧月の体に入った玲琳がフィジカル面でとんでもない怪物になってる
強くてニューゲームを始めたら、スキルポイントが全部貯まったままだった感じ。

much of a physical juggernaut Reirin in Keigetsu's body is
When you start New Game + and you still have all the skill points saved up.

経験も根性もあったんだよ。それを最大限に発揮するための体力と健康が足りなかっただけで。

She had the experience and the grit, she just needed the stamina and good health to be able to actualize it in the best way possible.

慧月の「丈夫な」体ですらギリギリだった儀式をやるために、HPマイナスの自分の体に戻ろうって、玲琳の計画はどうなってるんだ？まあ良い面を見れば、今回は慧月が計画を立てる有能な側として活躍するチャンスになってるけど。

Why is Reirin's plan to return to her -1 health body to perform a ritual that Keigetsu's "robust" body was barely able to handle? On the bright side, it gives Keigetsu the opportunity to contribute as the competent one with a plan this time.

玲琳は主に「私だと分かれば弓を貸してくれるはず」って考えだったんだよ
ほら、別に自分がやらなくてもいいって慧月に指摘されて恥ずかしがってたじゃんw

She was mostly on the path of "If they know it's me they'll lend me the bow"
Look she was ashamed when Keigetsu pointed out she didn't have to do it necessarily XD

自分から身を投げ出して、やらなくてもいい主人公ムーブをかますことに関しては、玲琳は病弱な体より熱く燃えてるからなw

Reirin runs hotter than her sick body when it comes to putting herself out there and doing main character stuff she doesn't even have to do lol.

玲琳（中身は慧月）は、超強力な毒虫がしまってある場所にたどり着くころにはヘトヘトになってそう。

Reirin (Keigetsu) is probably gonna be wiped by the time they reach the place where the super venom insect is stored.

慧月（中身は玲琳）が途中から玲琳（中身は慧月）をお姫様抱っこすることになるんじゃないかと思ってた
「わあ、すごく軽いですね、いえ私の体がすごく軽いという意味で、あなたのが別に――」
「黙って走りなさい！」

i was thinking that Keigetsu (Reirin) would have to princess-carry Reirin (Keigetsu) halfway through
"wow you're really light, i mean my body's really light, i mean not to say that your—"
"shut up and keep running!"

どうせなら雅媚が金麗雅を呪ってくれればよかったのに……
皇帝と皇后の言う通り、あの人うるさすぎるしウザすぎる。😠

I wish Gabi had cursed Kin Rei-ga instead...
The emperor and the empress are right, she's way too loud and annoying. 😠

雅容に成りすましてたのは、暗殺未遂が麗雅の仕業に見えるようにするためだった気がする。

I feel like her stint as Gayou was to make it seem the assassination attempt came from Reiga.

たぶん麗雅に罪を着せて、処刑される前に罪人の烙印を押される屈辱を味わわせる計画だったんだろうな。麗雅みたいな高慢な人間には、さぞ甘美な復讐になるはず。

The plan was probably to frame Reiga for the crime and make her have to put up with getting branded a criminal before her execution, which would probably be delicious revenge for someone as haughty as Reiga.

「純」妃はもうとっくに呪われてるんじゃないかな、あの口から出てくる汚い言葉の数々で。特に碁を打ってるときとか

maybe Pure Consort has already been cursed with all the filth that comes from her mouth, especially when playing go

[](#cantbehelped)

悪女の顔
あっ、彼にもバレた
抜け目ない慧月
赤面
雅媚さまには同情するし、その苦しみも分かる。でも彼女の心に憎しみの種をまいて、その憎しみを黄絹秀に向けさせたのは金麗雅だ。
ほんと人を操るのがうまい狡猾な女だよ。
玲琳が自分の体に戻るって言ったときに莉莉が寂しがってるのは本当にほっこりしたし、二人がこれからも会い続けられたらいいな。
莉莉は本当に素晴らしい侍女だし、最高の幸せをつかんでほしい 🩵🩵
あと、か弱いはずなんだから、あんなふうに走っちゃダメだと思うw

Face of a Villainess
Oh he found out too
Sneaky Keigatsu
Flustered
I sympathize with Lady Gabi and I can understand her pain but Kin Reiga is the one who planted the seeds of hate in her and also caused her to direct her hatred to Kou Kenshuu,
She really is a manipulative and cunning woman
Leelee feeling lonely when Reirin says she'll go back to her body is really wholesome and I hope they can continue meeting each other.
She's really a great court lady and deserves the best 🩵🩵
Also i dont think they should be running like that lol since she's supposed to be frail

前に『令和のダラさん』で、現代の農業技術の進歩のおかげで妖怪の怪異が減ったって回があった。で、今週のこのアニメは、基本的な衛生習慣で呪いが防げるって話。科学こそ最強。

A previous episode of Reiwa no Dara-san has youkai hauntings being reduced thanks to advances in modern agricultural practices. This week's episode for this anime is about basic hygiene practices preventing curses. Science: the strongest.

麗雅の過去の役割を踏まえて、金家についての補足情報を：
［金家の情報・長文］各家にはそれぞれ誇りとする特性・気質がある。黄家は慈しみ、朱家は何事にも全身全霊の感情を注ぐこと、玄家は武勇、藍家は知性。一方、金家は特殊で、本家と分家で特性が違う。清佳の出である本家は美しさを重んじ、その美しさのための努力も含めて大切にしている。麗雅の出である分家は権力を重んじる。財力的な意味でも、人を支配するという意味でも。建前上はそれだけの話だけど、実際には分家の権力欲が腐敗を生み、しかも権力を手に入れる術には長けていた。対する本家は、美しく品位ある存在でなければという意識ゆえに、分家ほど冷酷になれる精神的な強さがなく、太刀打ちできない。結果、権力に飢えた腐敗した分家が実質的に本家となり、本家のほうは分家とその政治的つながりにいいように使われる存在に成り下がった。物語全体の中での清佳の役割は、分家が引き起こしたこの混乱を正す道を探すことなんだ。

Some extra info on the Kin's considering Reiga's role in the past: [Kin Info Wall Text]>!All the clans have a special attribute/personality they all proudly exhibit: the Kou's have caretaking, the Shu's are being giving everything they do with 100% emotion, Gen's are martial prowess and Ran's have intellect. The Kin's meanwhile are a special case where the main branch and side branch have different attributes: the main branch, where Seika came from, value beauty which includes the efforts put into said beauty. While the side branch, where Reiga came, values power, both the material and having control over others. On paper this means nothing but in practice the side branch's want for power caused them to be corrupt but savvy enough to know how to get that power while the main branch is too weak to handle them because their need to be beautiful and dignified means they don't have the mental strength to be as ruthless as the side branch. So now the side branch's corruptive need for power essentially turned them into the main branch while main branch became the whorehouse of the side branch and their political connections. Seika's part in the overall story is trying finding a way to fix this mess the side branch has caused.!<

だから絹秀は、最近の件の裏に雅媚がいるとたぶん気づいてて、自分まで被害に遭っても黙ってたのか。雅媚の憎しみを溜めさせて爆発させれば、最終的には痛みから立ち直れると思ってたし、自分の「裏切り」を罰したい気持ちもあったんだな。
雅媚の絹秀への恨みって、皇后に選ばれたことへの嫉妬だけだと思ってたけど、もう一つ理由があった。流産したときに見舞いに来てもらえなかったっていう裏切りだ。というか、絹秀の立后そのものに雅媚がどう反応したかは描かれてないから、そっちは関係ないのかも。流産の件が唯一の理由ってこともありそう。
で、そもそも火に油を注いだ麗雅は本当にクソ女。わざと雅媚を煽ってこの騒動の種をまいた。雅媚が金家に罪を着せようとしてるのって、最初に麗雅があれを吹き込んだからなのかな？
慧月は毒には毒をって提案したけど、それは明らかに玲琳のやり方じゃない。きっと雅媚を傷つけずに止める別の方法を探すはず。
「武官の誰かに引いてもらえばよかったじゃない」
玲琳は懐の深い人かもしれないけど、論理は明らかに得意じゃないな。しなくていい犠牲を払おうとしてたことに気づいて、恥ずかしさで頭を下げてるのが最高に笑えた。そばに理屈で考える人が必要だったんだよ。

So that’s why Kenshuu kept silent about Gabi despite likely suspecting she’s behind the recent events, even when she ended up falling victim herself. She thought letting Gabi’s hatred brew before erupting would ultimately let her heal from the pain while she also wanted to punish herself for the '*betrayal*'.

I thought Gabi's grudge for Kenshuu merely stemmed from jealousy over the former being picked as the empress but turned out there's one more reason – the perceived betrayal over not being visited when she had a miscarriage. Actually, we never saw how she reacted over Kenshuu's ascension itself so that might not be a factor. The miscarriage incident could turn out to be the sole reason.

Meanwhile, Reiga's an absolute bitch for stoking the flames in the first place. She deliberately provoked Gabi and set this whole mess. Could Gabi be framing the Kin clan because Reiga first broke the news?

Keigetsu suggested to fight fire with fire, but that's clearly not Reirin's style. She'd definitely try to find some other way to stop Gabi, likely one that doesn't involve harming her.

*You could have one of the military officers draw it for you.*

Reirin might be a woman of vast heart, but logic’s clearly not her strong suit. It’s hilarious to see her bow down in shame for her needless sacrifice. She clearly needed to have someone rational by her side.

>玲琳は懐の深い人かもしれないけど、論理は明らかに得意じゃないな。しなくていい犠牲を払おうとしてたことに気づいて、恥ずかしさで頭を下げてるのが最高に笑えた。そばに理屈で考える人が必要だったんだよ。
かばうと、今の玲琳には確実に味方だと言える人がこの世に2人しかいないんだよ。莉莉と冬雪。慧月が困ってたときも自分でなんとかするしかなかったんだから、全部一人で片づけなきゃと思い込んで、他の人に頼れるって考えが浮かばなかったのもそこまで意外じゃない。
むしろ尭明がそれを提案もしないし、手を貸そうともしなかったのが驚き。自分の母親なのに。どうでもいいのか？

> Reirin might be a woman of vast heart, but logic's clearly not her strong suit. It's hilarious to see her bow down in shame for her needless sacrifice. She clearly needed to have someone rational by her side.

To her defense, she really only has 2 people in this world you can confidently say are on her side right now. Leelee and Tousetsu. I don't find it too surprising she felt she needed to fix this all on her own and didn't stop to consider others could help, considering she had to when Keigetsu was in trouble too.

I'm more surprised Gyomei didn't suggest it or try to do anything to help, since that's his mother after all. Does he not care about her?

玲琳があれ以上の口出しにうんざりして、殿下を見限ったりしなければ、別の案を出してたかもしれないけどな。

He might have suggested an alternative if Reirin hadn't had enough of his interference and basically gave up on him.

玲琳があまりに頑なに自分で弓を引くって言うから、黄家の清らかな乙女じゃなきゃダメな儀式なんだって自分に言い聞かせてたわ。でも違った、ただ視野が狭くなってただけ。まあ良い面もあって、そのポカのおかげで慧月と組むことになったし、慧月はこういう状況で何をすべきかちゃんと分かってた。

Reirin was so stubborn about drawing the bow herself that I gaslit myself into thinking it was a ritual that required a pure maiden from her clan specifically. But nope, she was just tunnel-visioning herself. Though on the bright side, her goof got her and Keigetsu together, with Keigetsu knowing exactly what to do in this situation.

玲琳があの無表情な顔と声で「もう殿下のことはどうでもいい」って言ったの、めちゃくちゃカッコよかった！そのあと自分の振る舞いを恥ずかしがり出したのは残念だったけど。
尭明は玲琳が慧月の体に入ってると今さら気づいたけど、その直前にまた弓を貸すのを断って彼女を怒らせてる。やらかしたな、笑
で、雅媚の憎しみの元は、自分は息子を流産したのに、絹秀は元気な尭明を産んだことだったのか…そりゃ憎しみも残るわ。しかも雅媚と絹秀は、あのことについて一度も腹を割って話してないみたいだし。
そして今度は玲琳と慧月が一緒に皇后を救いに行く。ただ、あんなふうに走り続けたら、玲琳はまず慧月を助けなきゃいけなくなるぞ。あの体はあんな走り方に耐えられるほど丈夫じゃないんだから、ははは！
あと、麗雅は本当に腹立つ。マジでこの作品で一番嫌われるキャラだろ。良いところが一つもないんじゃないか。

[Reirin](https://imgchest.com/p/ne7bbaa5v75) saying that she doesn't care about Gyoumei anymore with [that deadpan expression and voice](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/005bd2b9ec3c.png) was so cool! It's a shame that later in [the episode](https://imgchest.com/p/lqyebxxaxyd) she started [being embarrassed](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/14265a5aa682.png) about her behavior.

[Gyoumei now discovered that Reirin is in Keigetsu's body](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/2a0fca605130.png), right after [he made her angry](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/c3650d6ae2f5.png) by not letting her borrow the bow again. [He screwed up](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/3632c2aaa402.png), lol.

So [Gabi's hatred](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/c4985ea96c5e.png) stemming from the fact that [she miscarried her baby son](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/02d63d8ff602.png) while Kenshuu got [a healthy Gyoumei](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/df93d2a090a3.png)... Damn, no wonder that [hatred in her heart remained](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/ade0b3185030.png), especially since it seems that [she and Kenshuu](https://imgchest.com/p/agyvo55qw78) didn't talk honestly about what happened at all.

And now [Reirin](https://imgchest.com/p/ne7bbaa5v75) together with [Keigetsu](https://imgchest.com/p/vj4jbll9e78) will save [the Empress](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/f4aaad39719a.png). Though [if they keep running like that](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/445a91b82f86.png), Reirin will have to save Keigetsu first, because her body is too weak for running like that, hahaha!

Also, [Reiga is so goddamn annoying](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/1fdb4c7bed90.png). Seriously, [she's the most hateable character in the whole show](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/ee8df72c04c5.png), it's like she doesn't even have one positive trait.

Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

尭明はやらかしたと気づいた。たぶんもう、自分が望む形で玲琳の心を得ることはない。
視聴者は気づいた。朱雅媚があれだけのことをした後でも、金麗雅が最悪だと。
絹秀は気づいた。親友のためと思って憎しみの燃料になるのは、いい考えじゃなかったかもしれないと。
玲琳は気づく。何でもかんでも自分が主人公として片づけなくていいと。
玲琳と慧月は気づく。協力すると意外と良いコンビだと。

Gyoumei realized he screwed up and will probably never truly have Reirin's heart in the way he wants.
The audience realized that Kin Reiga is the absolute worst even after everything Shu Gabi has done.
Kenshuu realized that maybe becoming the fuel for her besties' hate thinking it was for her own good was not the best idea.
Reirin realizes that she doesn't have to MC every problem.
Reirin and Keigetsu realize they're actually a surprisingly good team when they work together.

＞尭明はやらかしたと気づいた。たぶんもう、自分が望む形で玲琳の心を得ることはない。
正直、最初からそんなもの得てなかったと思う。二人はいとこ同士だし、黄家は、特に皇后は、根性と義務を重んじる。玲琳は恋愛感情じゃなくて、家への義務で話を合わせてただけだろう。
＞玲琳と慧月は気づく。協力すると意外と良いコンビだと。
作者が百合を書く口実に、入れ替わりと暗殺計画をでっち上げたなんて信じられないなー（棒）

Gyoumei realized he screwed up and will probably never truly have Reirin's heart in the way he wants.
He probably never did to begin with tbh. They're cousins and the Kou clan, and the Empress especially, value grit and duty. She was probably just going along with out of duty to her clan rather than romance or love.
Reirin and Keigetsu realize they're actually a surprisingly good team when they work together.
Can't believe the author contrived a body swap and an assassinate plot as an excuse to write yuri. /s

＞そりゃ憎しみも残るわ。しかも雅媚と絹秀は、あのことについて一度も腹を割って話してないみたいだし。
だよな。憎しみが残ったのも分かる。流産のトラウマを抱えただけじゃなく、頼れるはずだと思ってた唯一の人がいないまま、一人で悲しみを乗り越えなきゃいけなかったんだから。

Damn, no wonder that hatred in her heart remained, especially since it seems that she and Kenshuu didn't talk honestly about what happened at all.
Yeah. You can see why the hatred remained. Not only did she have to have the trauma of a miscarriage. She had to go through the grief alone without the one person she thought she should count on.

朱妃が皇后に毒を盛ってるのは、流産のあとに見舞いに来なかったから、ってのは、最初から二人が一緒にいるのを見てきた身としては、ちょっと飛躍してる気がする。妊娠も出産もほぼ同時期だったわけだし。
そもそも玲琳が自分で弓を引く必要なくない？ってずっと思ってたけど、殿下に向かって無表情になって「もうお願いしません」って言い放つシーンはカッコよかった。
この件が片づいて莉莉が再会できたら、入れ替わってた慧月とどう接するのか見てみたい。この9日間で二人ともかなり変わったし。慧月はすっかりおとなしくなったみたいだ。

So Consort Shu is poisoning the Empress, because she didn't visit her after her miscarriage seems a bit of a leap after seeing them together since the beginning. Along with they got pregnant and almost delivered kids at the same time.

I was wondering it the whole time that Reirin didn't need to handle the bow herself anyways, but that scene where she goes deadpan on the Prince and tell him she isn't asking anymore was badass.

I'd be interested in seeing how Leelee interacts with swapped Keigetsu after all of this if they have a reunion, as both have changed quite a bit in these past 9 days. Keigetsu seems like she's quite meek now.

あの「純」妃（いや「腐」妃か）のことだから、あの女が雅媚に何か吹き込んで、見舞いに来なかったこと以上に絹秀を憎ませたんだろう

knowing the Pu(trid)re consort, that wench probably said something to Gabi that made her hate Kenshuu more than just not visiting

そういう示唆はあったよね。絹秀に言ったのと同じことを雅媚にも言ったって。絹秀の子が雅媚の子の生気を奪ったに違いない、ってやつ。
それに朱家は感情的なことで知られてる。慧月と莉莉を見れば分かる。

It is implied she said the same words she said to Kenshuu to her, after all, that Kenshuu's child must have stolen Gabi's child's vitality.
Also the Shu are known for being emotional, just see Keigetsu and Leelee.

>ちょっと飛躍してる気がする
あれが最後の一押しだっただけかもよ。その前から心の底にある程度の恨みがあった可能性も同じくらいある。あの出来事でどん底まで突き落とされたのかも。

> seems a bit of a leap

Could just be the event that acted as the final straw. It's just as likely that even before that, she already had some level of resentment underneath. That event might be what pushed her to the deep end.

耳に注がれた（比喩的な）毒のせいで、全部がさらに悪化したんだと思う。雛宮に入るのを手助けしたあとに自分の地位を「奪われ」て、それから子を失って、さらに自分の子は相手の子を強くするために「奪われた」んだって考えを頭に植えつけられた。恨みが元からあったのはその通りだけど、これが引き返せない一線を越えさせたんだよ。で、慧月のことを知って、ついに「自分の」地位を取り戻す計画を立てる手段を手に入れた…

I think the (metaphorical) poison in her ear is what added to it all going further. She'd already had her position "usurped" after helping her settle into the Maidens Court, then she lost her baby, then she has the idea that her baby was "stolen" from her to make the other one stronger put into her head. I agree the resentment was already there but this was the thing that drove her past the point of no return, finding out about Keigetsu finally gave her a way to come up with a plan to get "her" position back...

こう言うとアレかもしれないけど、尭明にはこの作品の男主人公になってほしくない。隊長のほうが断然いいわ。尭明が嫌いってわけじゃない、少なくとも今はもう。ちょっと変なやつだけどな。それに、あの話し合いのあとじゃ玲琳とはもう元には戻れなさそう。玲琳、本気だったもん。
それはさておき、玲琳が勝ち残った虫たちの呪われた在庫を開放して、慧月がそれで蠱毒の術を使うわけだ。ああ、雅媚さん、ご冥福…じゃなくて、その後も生きていられますように。たぶん生きてるだろうけど…

Might sound bad to say this, but I don't want Gyomei to be the male lead in this, the Captain is the best tbh. I don't really dislike Gyomei, not anymore, at least. He is a bit weird, tho. And it does seem like there ain't going back with Reiren anymore after that talk with him, she was damn serious.

That aside, Reiren is gonna open up her cursed inventory of victorious bugs that Keigetsu will use to perform venomcraft. Ahh, I pray for you Gabi san, may you have another day to live after that. She probably will...

尭明が入れ替わりに気づくのにあんなに時間がかかって、しかも水のおかげでやっとだったってことは、これまで玲琳のことをあまりちゃんと見てなかったってことだよ。冬雪みたいに彼女の癖に気づかなかった。シリーズの最後で二人が本当に結婚したら驚くわ。尭明が大きく成長するって筋書きでもない限り、玲琳は別の誰かと結婚する気がする。

Gyoumei taking so long to notice the swap and only thanks to the water tells us he was not very attentive of Reirin in the past. He didn't notice her idiosyncrasies like Tousetsu did. I'll be surprised if those two really marry by the end of the series. Unless he's meant to undergo some great character growth, I picture Reirin marrying someone else.

うーん、それはちょっと言いすぎだと思う。
尭明は玲琳の根性、強い心に惚れたんだって、はっきり語られてるし描かれてもいる。
ただ、玲琳が使ってる新しい体にすごく怒ってたし、入れ替わりなんて…普通のことじゃないだろ？
点と点を結べなかったのは責められないよ。
事件以来、玲琳が前と違うとも言ってたけど、論理的に事件のトラウマだと思い込んだ。それは妥当だろ。
（玲琳は玲琳だから、あんなトラウマ反応を見せたら引っかかるべきだってのは分かる。でも、バルコニーから突き落とされた人に「突き落とされてちょっとトラウマになりすぎ／目覚めすぎじゃない？もっと平気だと思ってた」なんて言えるか想像してみ？笑）
冬雪ですらすぐには気づかなかったんだぞ。尭明よりずっと長くそばにいたのに。

Eh I think that’s a bit much

We have been told and directly showed that Gyomei fell for Reirin due to her grit, her strong spirit/ mental fortitude

It’s just that he was very angry towards the new body Reirin was using and body swap it’s not like…normal?

I can’t blame him not connecting the dots

He also does say that Reirin does not feel the same since the incident, but be logically just assumes it’s trauma due to the incident, which is reasonable

(I get that Reirin is Reirin so that trauma response from her should trigger some bells, but can you imagine telling someone that was pushed off a balcony “hey getting pushed off that balcony traumatized/ awakened you a bit too much, I tought you would have taken it better” LMAO)

Even Tousetsu didn’t catch on right away and she was by her side way more than Gyomei

男主人公なんていない、いるのは主人公だけ。😉

There are no Male Lead's just Main Characters. 😉

ついに皇帝も知ったか。あの聖なる水に映った姿がちょうど目に入るなんて、都合がいいな。
皇后を救うための時間との勝負だ。朱妃の流産の件があってから、自分が狙われることは分かってたみたいだな。玲琳と慧月が、朱妃のやったことに対抗できるくらい強い呪いを作れるのか気になる。玲琳の虫の壺があってよかった…

So the Emperor finally knows. Convenient he caught a glimpse of her in the reflection of that sacred water.

It’s a real race against time to save the Empress. Seems like she knew she was already going to be targeted after what happened with Shu’s miscarriage. I wonder if Reirin and Keigetsu are going to be able to craft a curse strong enough to counter what Shu has done. Luck they’ve got Reirin’s jar of bugs…

一応言っておくと、尭明は皇太子で、皇帝じゃないよ。

Just want to mention that Gyoumei is the crown prince, not the emperor.

あ、ごめん。

Ah, my bad.

あー
玲琳、その体はあのスピード向きじゃないから、自分の体を担いで運ぶことになるかもな。
やる気になった玲琳は止められない重戦車なのに、恥ずかしさで意外とあっさり脱線するんだよな。

Ah 
Reiren, you might need to carry your body as it ain't built for that speed. 
Reiren is a heck of juggernaut when motivated but surprisingly easy to derail by embrassement.

慧月「黄玲琳…あ、あなた…今度は私を殺す気！？」

Keigetsu: "Kou Reirin...are...are...you trying to kill me now!?"

玲琳玲琳玲琳玲琳玲琳玲琳玲琳玲琳玲琳玲琳玲琳
ついに来た！玲琳が堪忍袋の緒を切らしたところで、尭明がやっと入れ替わりに気づいた！ここの古川慎の演技と苦悶の叫びは最高レベル～
で、今の体のままじゃ破魔の弓を使う許可がもらえないと見て、玲琳は突撃する。莉莉に心のこもった別れを告げて、金の衣を持って帰ると約束して。莉莉を踏み台にして黄家の宮に忍び込み、伯母の治療を手伝ってから、慧月のもとへ急いで入れ替わりを解くよう説得する。自分の体に戻れば、みんなちゃんと話を聞いてくれるはずだから…
…そこで慧月が常識で返す。なんで弓を引くのがあなたじゃなきゃいけないの？って。玲琳が全部一人でやろうとしてたことに気づいて恥ずかしさでいっぱいになるの、作中屈指の笑える場面だったわ、ははは。それに慧月は、弓だけで呪いが破れるとは思ってない。必要なのは対抗する別の呪いで、それには虫が要る…それとも玲琳はもう持ってる？
そうそう、雅媚の復讐の動機も明かされた。自分の子は死産で、絹秀の子はそうじゃなかった。赤ちゃんの尭明だ！しかも麗雅が、死産は尭明がもう一人の赤ん坊の気を吸ったせいだとほのめかした。絹秀は、自分は恵まれて相手は打ちひしがれてるんだから、慰めに行くより雅媚に憎まれるべきだと決めた。でも正直それは馬鹿な考え方だよ。今の状況を見てみろって…
とにかく尭明と莉莉のパートはめちゃくちゃ楽しめた。もちろん玲琳は大好き。
黄玲琳愛してるぅぅぅぅぅぅぅぅぅぅ

REIRIN REIRIN REIRIN REIRIN REIRIN REIRIN REIRIN REIRIN REIRIN REIRIN REIRIN

It's here! Gyoumei finally figures out the swap with Reirin losing her patience with him! Furukawa Makoto's acting and cries of anguish here are top-tier~

And thus, seeing as she cannot get permission as she is to use the bow of warding, Reirin charges, with a heartfelt farewell to Leelee and a promise that she'll bring her gold robes. Sneaking into the Kou compound with the help of Leelee as a jumping pad, she helps with her aunt's treatment and hurries to Keigetsu to persuade her to undo the swap, since if she was in her body people might properly listen to her...

...and Keigetsu counters with common sense, why does it have to be her to draw the bow? This is one of the funniest moments of Reirin realizing that she'd been trying to do everything on her own and is filled with shame, hahaha. Besides, Keigetsu doesn't believe the curse would be defeated just with the bow--- what they need is another curse to fight it, but they need the insects for it... or does Reirin already have it?

Oh right we also get Gabi's motive of vengeance, since her child was stillborn and Kenshuu's was not--- baby Gyoumei!--- and Reiga insinuated that the stillbirth was because Gyoumei absorbed the qi of the other baby. Kenshuu ended up deciding that Gabi should hate her rather than approach her to try to console her since she's been blessed while she was devastated, but honestly that's a stupid line of thought. Look at where we are now...

Anyway I thoroughly enjoyed Gyoumei and Leelee's parts. And of course I love Reirin.

I LOVE KOU REIRIN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

やらかしにも色々あるけど、尭明のは玲琳が抱いてた敬意と忠誠をひとかけらも残さず吹き飛ばしたやつ。
玲琳はカッコよすぎるし、主人公すぎて自分のためにならないんだよ。黄家の「根性」が裏目に出たのかもな。義務だからと思って何でも一人で抱え込みすぎるし、絹秀も、自分を憎むことで雅媚が子を失った悲しみを乗り越えられると思ったら、それが呪いになって返ってきて噛みつかれたわけだし。

There are fumbles and then there's Gyoumei destroying every shred of respect/loyalty Reirin had for him.

Reirin is just too badass and too much of a main character for her own good. Maybe the Kou Clan's "grit" worked against them if it means that they take on too much by themselves, feeling they have to by their duty, and also that Kenshuu though "grit" could help Gabi get through the loss of her child by hating her only to come back and bite her with a curse.

雅媚の喪失はお気の毒だけど、取り乱した雅媚もかわいいな。
うわ、あの水にそんな力があるなんて思わなかった。完全にトンデモな瞬間だったわ。でも殿下が気づくのが遅かったおかげで、慧月の命は今のところ無事だ。
二人とも皇后を救おうとしてるんだから、救い主として知られることになって、慧月もたぶん許される。もし…誰も彼女の手柄を知らないままドラマが続くんじゃなければね。
玲琳は恥ずかしがるかわいい一面で、慧月の株を上げ続けてるな笑。慧月本人ですら、自分の体があんなことしてるのを見てどんな顔をすればいいか分かってない。
玲琳の自分への厳しさ、次元が違う！！

Sorry for Gabi loss but [distress Gabi](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/d4aaa597bc62.png) looks cute too.

Woah, never thought [that water can do that](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/478a6e73d2e4.png) too. Totally a quack moment there. But since the prince was late to notice it, Keigetsu life has avoided being harmed for now.
Now that both of them are trying to save the empress, they will be known as saviors and Keigetsu probably be spared unless...nobody knows her feat and the drama goes on.

Reirin just keeps rising Keigetsu stocks lol with her [embarrassing cute side.](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/1e93ba092e58.png) Even [Keigetsu](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/be7b33a1a64a.png) herself doesn't know how to face properly seeing [her body doing that.](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/92add8bb080f.png)

Reirin being [hard to herself](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/78976373a259.png) in a whole another level!!

朱家の人間らしいよな。雅媚も慧月も、激しい感情を抱えてるときが一番魅力的に見える。雅媚の普段の振る舞いは落ち着きすぎてて冷めてるけど、もちろん今はあれが演技だって分かってる。呪いが（きっと）解けたあと、彼女の怒りが見られるといいな。

It makes sense as members of the Shu clan, both Gabi and Keigetsu look most captivating when holding the fiercest of emotions. Gabi's normal demeanor is really too calm and detached, of course we all know its an act now. I hope after the curse is (surely) dispelled, we get to see her anger.

>慧月本人ですら、自分の体があんなことしてるのを見てどんな顔をすればいいか分かってない。
「自分がこんなにかわいくなれるなんて知らなかった」
――本物の慧月

> Even Keigetsu herself doesn't know how to face properly seeing her body doing that.

Didn't know I could be this cute.

-OG Keigetsu

麗雅ってほんと性悪な女だよな。どんな些細な得のためでも引っかき回さずにいられない。流産したばかりの相手を前にしてもだ。

Reiga sure is a little b\*tch, ain't she. She just had to stir sh\*t up for any possible advantage, even in the face of someone who'd just had a miscarriage.

付け加えると、皇后様もこの件ではかなり疑問の残る判断をしてるよ。後宮の連中はみんな、ちゃんと話し合うことにアレルギーでもあるみたいだ。前回の慧月と玲琳は、実はこの分野の先駆者だったんだな。

I will add though, that Empress-sama also made a lot of questionable decisions in this whole thing. It turns out everyone in court is allergic to having a proper conversation, and Keigetsu and Reirin were actually pioneers in this field last episode.

性悪なんて言葉じゃ足りない。とんでもなく邪悪な女だよ。心の底から嫌い

Only bitch is an understatement. She's a f*****g evil bitch. Hate her with all my guts

尭明にまたがっかりさせられたあとの玲琳の切り替わりっぷり、すごかったな。完全に見限ってた。尭明がこのタイミングで玲琳と慧月の入れ替わりに気づいたのは面白い。次のシーズンになると思ってた。これまでのやり取りを必死に思い返してるのは笑えた。玲琳には普段見せない一面を見せてたから、今は彼女にどう思われてるか本気で心配してる。
玲琳が莉莉に金の衣を持って帰るって言ったのは本当に優しかった。それが実現したらすごく心温まるだろうな。
雅媚が清佳の一族の者のふりをしてた理由も分かった。麗雅は卑劣すぎる。雅媚に何を言ったかを得意げに白状する態度には腹が立ったし、あの口から出てくる汚い言葉には本当に面食らった。悪役になれば雅媚のためになると皇后が考えたのは悲しいけど、結局はかえって悪化させただけだった。

Damn the way Reirin switched after Gyoumei disappointed her once more, she was done. It's interesting that Gyoumei has realized Reirin and Keigetsu are swapped at this point in time, I thought it'd happen in the next season. Watching him think hard about all their interactions was funny, he's been showing a side he doesn't normally show to Reirin so now he's really worried about what she thinks of him.

It was really sweet that Reirin said she'd bring a gold garment for Leelee, that'll be so heartwarming to see.

I can see why Gabi was pretending to be from Seika's clan, Reiga is despicable. The way she was acting all smug confessing what she had told Gabi was infuriating, I was taken so aback by the filth coming out of her mouth. It's sad that the Empress thought being the bad guy would help Gabi, but it just made it worse instead.

かわいそうな莉莉。自分を人間として扱ってくれた唯一の人を失うのが本当に心配なんだな。

Poor LeeLee. Really worried about losing the only person who has ever treated her as a human being.

でも心配するのは当然だよ。慧月がどれだけ成長したか、莉莉は知らないんだから。知ってるのは視聴者と玲琳だけ。入れ替わりが終わったら、最初の頃の慧月が戻ってくると思うしかない。玲琳が金の衣を持って帰ると言ったのが、莉莉を黄家に迎えるって意味だったらいいな。

She was right to be worried though. She doesn't know what kind of growth Keigetsu has been through. Only the viewers and Reirin know. She can only assume if the swap ends she'll get the minute 1 Keigsetsu back. I hope Reirin saying she'll bring her a gold garment was her way of saying he'll adopt her into the Kou clan.

殿下に入れ替わりがバレたから、もう元に戻るんだと思う。でも今は二人で一緒に動いてるから、大丈夫なのかも。

I'm expecting them to swap back now that the prince knows the swap happened, they are sticking together now though so maybe it will be fine.

殿下にまでバレたか。秘密、全然長く守れてないな。
雅媚の息子の死を利用したあの妃こそ、次に獅子の檻に放り込まれるべきかもな。
玲琳の体に入った慧月が、自分の体に入った玲琳に全力疾走で引きずられてるのはかわいそうだけど、ついに二人が協力してるのを見られたのは嬉しい。ただ、このムカデ作戦はちょっと不安だ。鷹の目の兄ちゃんは弓の見張りに行ったから、何回か引いて手伝ってくれるかもな。

Even the prince has figured it out, they're really not preserving the secret for long.

That one Consort who used the death of Consort Gabi's son should maybe be the next one thrown in the lion cage.

Poor Keigetsu in Reirin's body being dragged along at a run by Reirin in hers, but it's a win to see them working together at last. I'm a little unsure about this centipede plan, however. Eagle Eyes dude went off to guard the bow so maybe he'll give it a few helpful draws.

辰宇は兄より先に気づいてたと思うけど、さりげなくしてるだけなんだよ。さりげなさすぎて、玲琳が彼と組んでたら実は話の役に立ってたかもってレベル笑

I also think Shin-u figured it out before his brother did but he's just being subtle about it. So subtle that he could have actually been more useful to the plot if Reirin just worked with him lol.

ここまで来ると、慧月の体に入った玲琳を見てるのが案外好きなのかもな

atp he might actually like seeing reirin in keigetsu's body
