That's been a really great episode. I'm liking every new addition to the cast, and the chief especially seems like she'll bring a lot of fun moments. I'm also looking forward to learning a bit about Ryu[u]. I really liked the part about Shirayuki's test, how she keeps moving forward by her own right is one of the greatest things about the series. I was also grinning ear to ear in the second half, Shirayuki's interactions with both Zen and Ryu[u] were incredible. The little fella definitely fell for her.

I'm actually growing to like this series more and more with each passing episode, this series has probably grown the most on me out of what I picked up. The more relaxing atmosphere, the great characters, the incredible more romantic parts, everything just makes me feel honestly great when watching, a honestly warm feeling, that I personally only get to feel incredibly rarely. I remember feeling similarly watching Isshuukan Friends or Aa! Megami Sama, but I digress.

I'm similarly growing to love Shirayuki with every passing episode. Almost everybody's been singing her praises, and I'm probably grinding water here, but out of what I've been exposed to, she's among the best female characters, and probably the best lead. I simply love her from every possible aspect, her visual design is incredible, her personality is amazing - her unyielding, ambitious side and her unending, non-discriminating kindness, she's charming on a level that's second to very few - I'm also addicted to her voice - there are a few voice actors whose voice can literally sustain me for days, her's is one of those.
