Indeed. Ralaire's owning it.Great Ralaire's this chapter.
This is completely manga original. Did not happen at all in LNs. Ignoring the made up Lilly stuff (of which I'm not sure if I'm a fan of), you should still have noticed some familiar things and setups.As a LN reader I don't have a clue what's going on
It's a less direct method of introducingAs a LN reader I don't have a clue what's going on
I could be misremembering but I think the mangaka doing the adaptation said they were a fan of Lily. Either way, I've felt like they've been finding ways to squeeze more of her in for a while now. For me, it's not a big deal, as long as they don't get too carried away. This chapter did a lot of other things too that are cool if you're in the know.The editors sure want to take advantage of Anime/manga onlys, this much Lily content as if she had any chance cannot be explained otherwise
That's absolutely not what happens in the LNs. And you're taking a line from SSCC to mean something it didn't as well. Rae does not ever love Lily in a romantic sense and Lily is never a mistress to anyone. She's just a good friend and a third party with an unrequited love from start to finish. Rae famously only loves Claire. If you've read the series, I'm a bit confused how you'd say otherwise?In LN her efforts will actually bear fruit and Rae will eventually love her back. Even Claire will eventually not mind Lilly being a mistress.
Oh. My mistake. My excessive "hope" to add Lilly into Rae's harem affected my brain and made me confused and delusional.That's absolutely not what happens in the LNs.
