Recap of Episode 12
In the preceding episode, Kenichi and his group arrived in the royal capital, where they were greeted by Princess Lilith, who quickly took a liking to Kenichi. With the king’s audience expected to be delayed for months, Lilith offered them land near the castle for their stay and chose to observe their lifestyle closely, while Queen Amaranth watched with interest from a distance.
During their time together, Kenichi prepared meals that impressed Lilith, leading her chefs to try and replicate his dishes. However, they struggled to match the allure of Kenichi’s chocolates. Lilith also enlisted Kenichi and his friends for various tasks, such as pest control, testing the castle’s defenses, and auctioning off items like the cave spider corpse. A surprising revelation occurred as Lilith disclosed her non-blood relation to Amaranth, revealing her lineage traced back to a deceased royal concubine. Moreover, they discovered a haunted vase in Amaranth’s quarters, prompting a warning to remove it. The episode concluded with anticipation as Kenichi and his crew prepared to meet the king.
Anticipations for Episode 13
Looking ahead, Episode 13 is expected to kick off with the pivotal meeting between Kenichi and the king. This encounter is likely to introduce key figures, including Queen Amaranth and other pivotal court officials. The purpose of their meeting remains uncertain, but it’s anticipated that the king will request a favor from Kenichi, potentially laying the groundwork for narrative threads in a future season. The episode may culminate with Kenichi’s party being assigned a significant quest dictated by the king.
