@arghc - If I had to guess, it's one of the baby toys for Kamil. I think there was something about a metal ball that jingled and was wrapped in soft cloth? Maybe it wouldn't be too much extra to dress that up as a rabbit or something.

@LurkingMcLurk Looks like they moved a scene from one of the extra stories to this upcoming episode. Wonder if they'll still include the visit to Johann for the cat bells or if they'll skip over it again.

Everything is set up in this episode (34) for season finale. Last 2 episodes will be epic. Can't say more in order to avoid spoilers :)

I think others have mentioned this, but it is at times way too amusing reading comments on the anime from folks who have clearly not read the LN or Manga.

I really like the minor details in this one. Damuel knowing a shortcut that Lutz seemed to not know meant that he'd actually been putting effort into how to quickly get around in the lower city despite his aversion to it.

Minor note: Even in JP, this exact bit hasn't been covered in the manga. They'd know some vague details from the P3 adaptation that references back (and from what I remember searching in the past, p3 only has 1 chapter scanlated), but the specifics would be unknown to them. Only WN and LN readers know for sure.

OK.
I'd tossed in the manga having spaced entirely that JNC is translating it and hasn't reached that section of the story as of yet...Anyway, some of the reactions to the last episode made it more than clear that they had no clue what was coming up next.
And had no knowledge of the power struggle going on at the top of Ehrenfest.Actually, I should be taking the perspective that it's interesting viewing it through the impressions of someone coming across these things for the first time.
I mean, I actually know someone who watched a live performance of Romeo & Juliet without knowing a thing about the story.
I wasn't there, but her mother was.
Hearing about that was an eye opener; probably one of very few in the last several hundred years who watched it of whom that could be said. -

I've been using MAL for over a decade, but very rarely do I venture into the forums. Seems like I may be missing out on something for Bookworm then.
But as for not knowing what's coming, even if you genuinely don't know, surely the sheer size of the Bookworm LN will inform your opinions. Or is that meta-information still in effect a spoiler? I mean, when people talk about Myne's plot armour they have a point, but then they get reminded that her family doesn't have it.
PS sent you a friend request just so you can laugh (or despair) at my tastes in anime so feel free to otherwise ignore it :)

There's probably a good chunk of people that do not know about the LNs. I embarrassingly enough didn't even know LNs were a thing until I started looking for what the anime was based on and I was expecting a manga.

@talisein, OK, so it's got THAT scene from what will presumably be the final episode of this season (
or maybe even next Monday's if the last ep heads into the side storiesEdit: looks like the final ep based on the preview pics below), but it doesn't have the one from ep 31 or therabouts where Myne leaps into her father's arms from halfway up a staircase - now that really shows trust in someone!(recites mantra: S4 please, S4 please, S4 please, S4 please, S4 please)

@LurkingMcLurk, so that's how they're going to do it, with yet another cliff-hanger at the end of an episode - been a few of those already this season.
And I know it's just a trivial thing compared to all the other stuff, but I love how they're still showing the difference between the rinsham users and the rest of the characters.

That is what I was thinking as well based on the last frame. But it makes since, if they stop the show this season instead of continuing, they will really want to think hard about that notion; they need to make it a good ending, thus they cannot rush the ending.

It seems obvious that they'd stop around that point. There's so much to cover between now and the end of the volume (not even counting side stories) that trying to push past would be a disaster. They need all the time they can get for the final bits.

I would say it's not the final ep of the season. I'd venture there's at least one more, because given how the episode preview pictures are in the order they appear in the episode, that scene isn't in this one (because there is no way they don't include that scene). Given how heavily a certain character who does not appear in the previews features in the finale of P2, there is no way that they wouldn't show that he is very definitely involved.
My grasp on sanity remains absolute.
Oh, right, the poison, the poison for Kuzco, the poison chosen especially to kill Kuzco, Kuzco's poison. ...That poison?

You are correct, it's not the final episode; there are two episodes left.
We've seen eight, and there are ten total. -
@TheGrimLich, my hasty edit wasn't clear enough. What I meant was that the some of the scenes from that PV video looked as though they were from the last episode (June 13), rather than the next episode (June 6).

@NekoInu, I was just about to say that it's in all the usual places like MAL and ANN, but when I checked I found that ANN was still listing 12 episodes. I still think it's more likely to be 10 because it started 2 weeks later than most of the other anime this season.

Information for the JP home release of s3 said that it will contain 10 episodes.
