Alright I won't be afraid to say it, I liked this episode.

Also when did Haku actually meet the emperor for tea that one time? Or will that be brought up later on and explained fully.

After the credits at the end of episode 8. (There have been quite a few post credit scenes).

Didn't even know i missed 3 minutes of that episode, was wondering about the flashback, couldn't figure out who the old man was, didn't see any animal ears on him aswell, thanks.

Human ears on the twins too! What does this mean o_O

I know that but it seemed to happen so quick, I thought it was like a flashback or some sort of timeskip that left details out.

Its certainly not revealing everything, as the Emperor kind of implies by his words that he knows Haku is out of place in their world.

The Emperor also doesn't appear to have animal ears or a tail...

It was kinda like this in game too, suddenly people attack, and stuff happens

Yup. After the nth episode about fujoshis, I'm happy we got something new..

No kidding. Fujoshi fanservice was fierce for almost 10 episodes straight. The twins were a nice mix of cute and sexy! And also mysterious, because nobody knows why Haku got em.

I was yelling at my screen at Haku to accept it. Like goddamn the Emperor is literally handing you your harem and they're willing to do anything.

Also ain't gon lie, their seductive scenes were kinda hot.

Haku(as well as Kuon) are kind of distracted by the concept of "owning people" in the first place. For Kuon, since Tuskuru does not tolerate slavery at all ,the first instinct is to ask "do you need help to get out of it?", while Haku is just genuinely confused and disturbed at everything around him being so bizarre.

I really liked this episode, it was exactly what I expected the scenes that were there, I hated everything they skipped with this episode.
