Where to watch

Japan broadcast: Tokyo MX, BS11, Chukyo TV, MBS TV, Anime Theatre X, Gunma Television, and Tochigi Television. Outside Japan: Crunchyroll has the global stream, and Muse Communication is handling Southeast Asia.

Why this show is suddenly everywhere

It is pulling real numbers fast. According to Flixpatrol’s snapshot of Crunchyroll’s Top Ten in the US, the show jumped to 8th place off a single episode, rubbing shoulders with Gachiakuta and My Hero Academia. For a premiere week, that is a strong flex.

What Episode 2 is setting up

Quick refresher: Scarlet El Vandimion gets publicly dumped by her fiance, Second Prince Kyle of Paristan, who falsely pegs her as a bully while pivoting to marry someone else. She asks permission to go off, then absolutely does, revealing the sharp, sadistic core she usually keeps tucked away. Kyle did not keep her around for love anyway; he wanted her magic, which Episode 1 makes very clear.

Episode 2 picks up with Scarlet waking three days later and swatting away an assassination attempt from her own maid, Nanaka. Meanwhile, Scarlet’s brother Leonardo teams with Kyle’s brother Julius to launch the Crown Investigatory Office, a new unit meant to scrub corruption out of the government. Scarlet is also going to dig into why Nanaka tried to kill her and whether the would-be assassin will talk. It is a messy, political follow-up to a delightfully unhinged meet-breakup.

Who is making it

The anime adapts Nana Otori’s light novel series and is produced by Liden Films Kyoto Studio.

The core cast

Asami Seto leads as Scarlet El Vandimion, with Morgan Laure in the English dub. Wataru Katoh plays Julius von Paristan (English: Reagan Murdock). Shoya Ishige voices Leonardo El Vandimion (English: Alex Hom). Nanaka is voiced by Miyu Tomita (English: Lexi Nieto). Sigurd Forgrave is played by Kazuki Ura (English: Kieran Flitton).

Final note

Episode 2 lands October 10/11 depending on your time zone, and the show feels like it is just getting warmed up. May I Ask for One Final Thing? is streaming on Crunchyroll. What are you expecting from Scarlet’s next move?
