MAL entry, Anilist. The zeroth episode is a spin-off-ish, focusing on Sylphy after the Calamity meeting with Ariel, becoming "silent Fitz", and struggling with her new situation; as well as the power struggles between Ariel and her brother I-always-forget-his-name for the Asuran throne.
You're viewing a single thread.
Definitely a good first episode to bring us back into the world. The scene with the princess being aggressive with Sylphy seemed unnecessary though.
Maybe I’m missing something but why is she wearing glasses and have her hair change to white?
The glasses are like Altair said, to make sex id harder.
The anime doesn't mention address it, but the white hair is due to mana exhaustion. Basically she force consumed so much mana, trying to cushion herself against the fall, that it took a toll on her body.
The anime didn't convey well enough that she was constantly using magic to help try and slow down her fall. As a result, a lot of people are missing the connection of the hair color change with the (over)use of magic.

Don't forget the glasses are a magic item which I'm sure will be revealed later in the show.
O wow, so that's what it was. Not obvious at all. Thanks for mentioning it. I kind of like her with white hair and totally sets up the option for Rudy to not recognise her in the near future.
The scene with the princess being aggressive with Sylphy seemed unnecessary though.
Have you even watched Season 1? That's like complaining about the rape in Goblin Slayer or the card games in Yu-Gi-Oh!
I mean yeah, it’s not like I was a fan of it then either. I don’t think it’s entirely fair to say it’s a core part of the show like card games are to yugioh either. The show does not revolve around being creepy. Particularly in this episode, it’s not like it’s preceded or followed by anything that makes it connected to the world or plot building.
