Aww, young Alice is adorable.

Glad to also see more of Zain and Caph this episode. Caph is also very kind and helpful towards others. Still felt like this was a somewhat important episode especially with Alice and the Duke's relationship.

Also, I kinda liked the piano tunes this episode.

Young alice is the epitome of cuteness goddamn, never thought I'd say that about a CGI anime but here we are, getting taught that anime is an art form beyond just images eh?

Got to see little Alice once again and I can say that I'm blessed. Her mother was such a dependable maid, everyone used to look up to her. No wonder Alice wanted to be like her. Zain looking after Cuff was really cute and considerate of him. Alice teasing Bocchan while laying beside her was cute again.

Man... I really don't want any of them to get separated. Bocchan, Alice, and Rob, all three look better together. Rob has been looking after Bocchan since he was a little kid. In one way or another, Rob is like a parent to Bocchan and Alice. Alice has brought so many smiles to Bocchan's face. I hope everything will be alright when his curse finally breaks. Otherwise, it's gonna be hella sad.

If this was an action anime Rob would be 100% the family hitman.

The kid almost falling on the guardrail remembered me of Hot Fuzz.

Rob was given a really difficult mission, raise a kid over the rebel phase without help for a while.

Great duet.

Another great episode, the song at the end gave it an extra touch

Am I the only one that things that Alice's mom is the witch that cursed Bocchan?
This episode cleared me out. The reasons I thought on this is because when Alice was a child she had a very weak health so why does she not have any problems now in the present? The second reason is because a few episodes ago when they go to the "witch land"(don't remember the name) one of the witches says that the witch that cursed Bocchan died instantly and guess what? Alice mother is dead along time ago, even do we don't know when.
I would like to know your thoughts and opinions about this :)

She did mention in one of the episodes (where she got sick) that she has weak health, so I don't think that's plausible.

They're setting up some drama there...
So, expect the curse to be broken soon. No clue how, though.

Isn't the source still ongoing? Maybe we'll get an anime-original ending...

Yes, That would be DEVASTATING for me, and I might not watch Anime with any romance for a long time. Although who knows if we'll get more seasons and even get the chance to see that since the CGI animation has probably put a lot of people off before they even give it a chance 🖕👎😩

Seriously when Rob said it's fate, was that Duke's Father with Alice's mom, and they were in love but because of the stuff with Maids and Nobility, he ended up getting together with Duke's mother? And that's why it's fate like a chance at correcting the mistake his father made by not going for the one he truly loves. And now our Duke will be able to(HOPEFULLY) make the right choice, and rather than listening to his mom and going down that road, he will choose Alice regardless of repercussions (hopefully not much) but even IF he had to be poorer and live in a nice little house with Alice and be a Musician I am ALLLL for it. There are two couples that NEED to happen for me in all of Anime, Alice and the Duke and Iruma and Ameri from Demon School lol

A day in the life of Alice...that is providing the context of Chibi Alice, and she's such a beauty with her mother Sharon. Like mother like daughter when it comes to personality, together with butler Rob who doesn't change for time millennia.

Caph's first errand outside, while Zain looks outward with a worried expression that Caph would go with a hitch, but thankfully she's able to manage well.

Alice sleeping together with the restless Bocchan, and she's still the same devil of tease to Bocchan. Sleeping nude on purpose...is Alice a succubus? But on a serious topic, the issue of the curse affecting Bocchan's family relations, and Alice giving him a pep talk to ensure a good night's rest.

Rob reminisces on handling Bocchan's situation when he was a kid in his growing-up years, and it's quite the stark contrast. It's a good thing that Alice stuck by to not make Bocchan lonely, but when bringing family context to sound weird, it really isn't a weird kind of love, but fated love.

Bocchan's usual piano playing impresses, and so is Alice's teasing. Singing the children's song of The Owl And The Pussycat in a duet style, this mesmerizes me a lot. Bocchan is elated to have his curse lifted soon, but Alice prepares for the worst. But just for now, let this moment linger longer...

Beautiful episode from start to finish. That song was interesting. I thought the subtitles were messed up but no...those are the lyrics. Either way it was still a very beautiful episode.

Inoue Kikuko for the role of Alice's mother was an awesome choice!!

also, who is this man, for the love of god?



don't tell me Alice may be an illegitimate daughter of the previous lord of the house? that's the impression this pic gives me, especially because Rob talks about Alice's pure feelings towards Bocchan as fateful feelings... this would make Alice and Bocchan siblings and I hate even to start thinking about it

Nah, I've been thinking this for a while now. The fact that an affair between Alice's mom and someone in the house (can't remember who was mentioned as dancing with her in that one episode) seems to be hinted at, it has to be meaningful somehow.

Ah, we got to see Alice's mother, Sharon. Child Alice was pretty adorable. We got to see Caph doing some "independent" training but, Zain ends up helping. The duet was pretty nice but, the lyrics are quite strange without context. We also got A lot of insight into Alice's dilemma. Hopefully, Bocchan's family doesn't interrupt their relationship if Bocchan's cure is broken.

Not a bad episode, but a little weak for this show's standard

The story just felt a little fragmented. Starts off with flashback of Alice, then Caph/Zain skit, then Alice/Bocchan bed scene, then Rob flashback and finished off with Alice/Bocchan singing. This type of episode would have been OK if it was like episode 6, but now that we're up to episode 10, I wished they did something more concrete.

Definitely loved the special ED. This show has the best character songs of the season.

Well, that was such a dissapointing act of their mother following up the previous circumstances. A silent treatment will never be a good sign, ffs you woman. As expected, Walter always blame his brother xd.

A little good moment from the witch couple Cuff and Zain. Shopping alone, while he stalked behind. They both looked so damn cute.

Back to Bocchan and his maid, after that dreaming sequences. Damn the story looking more deep than i thought as the usual non-context sol moment of flirting between them. The story progression getting a strong part. Never expect Alice's mom to be revealed, even in just her dream, and also using Rob's perspective about them, all of my previous assumptions might be lost without a trace. Well, whatever happen in the future within them, either if its raise another elses story of it, it doesn't matter much currently when Bocchan still under the influence of the witch curse.

So left aside and continue for the next that might be their best effort again to lift the curse. Lets see....

And Alice, it is way too late to step back from bocchan now lol

And I must say I love Alice seiyuu voice, I always watch the ending because I like how her seiyuu sings, so it was nice to hear another song of her, I hope she can have more singing chances in the future

What a beautiful episode, smol Alice was really adorable and her mother had huge ara ara energy.

It was really nice to see how Rob thinks of all of this, Alice's presence really helped a lot in that lonely mansion. It's really sad though that because of their positions, even if Bocchan breaks the curse, it's not guaranteed that Alice and him will be able to live a happy and free life. Really looking forward to the next episode.

Interesting that they would go into such topics in the final segment of this episode. Kinda doubt we would even get to a point where the curse is broken and that would be something to consider in the final 2 eps but we'll see. Course it could be a S2 thing but I'd be surprised if there was a S2 announced.

Young Alice was adorable. Loved the storytelling, truly loved seeing Rob getting some spotlight. My favorite character of the anime. The one that supported Bocchan since the beginning and never gave up on him. It's a CGI anime, but it's one with a meaning behind it. The bed scene was quite fantastic.

To all who think that the ending song was strange, the lyrics are based on "The Owl and the Pussy-Cat" poem from the late 1800s
