But anyway, the main (yes, Main) point here is : the whole discussion about how to spell her name correctly is silly. The original "spelling" is マイン . Spell it Mine, Myne, Myn, Main, Meine, Mein, Mhyne, Mhayn, it doesn't matter, what matters is how you PRONOUNCE it, as this is the only thing that is absolute in the original material. Spell it like you want, as long as your interlocutor understand who you're talking about. Like, I read the novels in Japanese. To me all of your spelling are equivalent. Quite often when I speak with others about bookworm I end up not knowing what spelling is used in the English book for said character, place etc, so I have to improvise. It happens ALL THE TIME. As long as the other understand, it's fine.

Because this is a Series with a Female Lead character and written by a Woman, so it can be considered as a Shoujo/Josei target Series. And it's common for Japanese Women Authors to include "Boys' Love" (BL) scenario in their stories, because apparently Japanese Women like those stuff.

Meanwhile, one thing I forgot to mention was that I loved Main trying to get her mother to do Lamaze breathing during labor. How long has that technique been around? |

Well, I don't know. The interaction between the Head Priest, Sylvester and Benno in the last episode was kinda... off. Especially Sylvester and Benno. Or maybe there's something else going on of which I am not aware yet, but it was most definitely brought to attention in the show.

I disagree with you all.

They don't. Very few people know that "Myne, the commoner blue shrine maiden" and "Myne, the sickly girl from the poor part of town" are the same person. For that matter, even the connection between either of those and "the Gilberta company girl" isn't widespread knowledge.

Well, it certainly seems that the big conflict of this season is about to arrive rather sooner than later. The baby at the orphanage kinda seems like a distraction from everything else, although it might turn Delia around in the end from reporting on Myne.

So the new evil plot is to have an evil noble from another province or whatever where the same rules don't apply "adopt" Myne.
The baby is pretty much just there to provide Delia a reason to stay instead of trying to become a noble's mistress. At least that's what Myne is planning, and it'll probably work.
