Well, your sister dying in an accident on the way to marry the guy, who wanted you in the first place, and your parents sending you as a replacement is certainly a way to get betrothed to your sister's ex. I wonder if Anastasia may have survived somehow.
To my surprise, I quite enjoyed the premiere. Yes, it was tropey in the way all Cinderella type stories are, but I didn't mind it. The maid is shaping up to be my fav. Hopefully, it turns out to be a decent fantasy romance.
OP looked interesting, so I'll continue watching for now.
Monica is an adorable main heroine. Loved every single one of her derpy faces.

Takopi being an alien from Happy Planet and thus not understanding the concept of bullying is so frustrating to watch at times. Didn't expect this episode to end the way it did.
I'm glad Kyou-u survived, someone needs to continue interrupting Jinshi when he's imposing romance on Maomao.
Spring season:
My AOTS is either Shoushimin or Apocalypse Hotel, I can't decide.
Man, the nostalgia; I was obsessed with Bleach in those days. For me it's either Velonica or Ranbu no Melody, but I'm leaning towards the latter.
Sword of the Demon Hunter comes out of nowhere to top the chart on AC this week.
It was a pretty good episode both in content and visual direction.
I have been more than satisfied this season
Same.
Osanai destroying Urino was brutal and, I must add, quite satisfying. I can't stop laughing.
~~Collecting wives~~ befriending other witches is more important than collecting teardrops that can save your life. Meg knows her priorities.

Or Osanai has been influencing him too
I've also thought about this possibility, but it weirds me out that Urino became so bold with Osanai right after Hiya told him to be assertive with her. Before their conversation Urino was intuitively cautious enough to not overstep her boundaries.
Sometimes I think Hiya's too suspicious to be such an obvious suspect, which is kind of suspicious in itself. Maybe not all of the arson cases were done by the same person. The first fires could have been a coincidence used as a cover-up to burn the van, and it would be easier to find some kind of pattern between just a few cases and deem it serial arson, like Urino did. Or someone tested the waters with those fires, Urino took the bait, and they decided it was safe to burn the van so no one thinks it was the initial target. Anyway, I hope Kobato solves the case soon enough, so my brain stops with all these theories.
~~I'm glad they didn't go with the abusive step-mother trope in Kyros's backstory. Laura looked strict but at least she didn't wreak her frustrations on a child.~~ Oh, she was going to poison him instead.
That body pillow scene was both funny and cute.
Did Kyros get a new one with Marie's name on it? Considering her severe case of inferiority complex he may need it for quite a while.
