The Eminence in Shadow : Episode 3

Current Episode Score: 7

Still doing great, and still no complaints from me after we have passed that odd first episode. It has been on a good track since than, following the source material pretty closely. And respecting the characters and the world really well. I’m enjoying it fully and could fully recommend the show at this point.

Something I do love about this show/LN/manga is the context of events like this episode. You have one of the most powerful people on the planet, if not most powerful, trying to pretend to be an average nobody and get along with the princess. Fully showing off his acting abilities, and the fact he really should drop out of this school and just start up a traveling drama club. The entire idea behind these scenes are just ridiculous.
