Episode 1 recap
The first episode of The Ancient Magus' Bride season 2 began with Chise and Elias arriving at the college. The pair then split up, with Elias being shown the campus by Adolf Stroud and Chise being medically examined by Alexandra Heath. However, Chise realized she was being watched, while Elias ran into old frenemy Mikhail Renfred.
Chise was then shown around the dorms, where she chose the talking cat known as Rose Lyn to be her dorm mother. She also met her roommate, Lucy, but got off on the wrong foot in the process. At the same time, Elias told Adolf that he and Chise planned to commute to the college, revealing that Renfred and Alice Swayne also do the same.
The episode then ended by primarily focusing on Chise, showing her getting her school clothes on and heading out to meet up with Alice in the episode’s closing scenes. However, the final scene saw Chise come upon the same girl who was watching her earlier, who then passed out.
What to expect (speculative)
The Ancient Magus’ Bride season 2 episode 2 will most likely begin with a focus on Chise and the unconscious girl whom she just caught. Fans can also expect Elias’ own adventures around the college to continue, with him likely set to meet a new colleague.
Similarly, Chise will likely meet additional peers, and hopefully classmates, in the upcoming installment. With her seemingly determined to attend class during her time at the college, she’ll undoubtedly begin forming relationships with her various peers and classmates.
Of particular interest to many fans are the seemingly insidious intentions of Liza Quillyn, who seems to have a suspiciously particular interest in Chise. Fans will likely be learning more and more of Liza’s plot as the season progresses. It is currently the most likely candidate for the season’s central conflict.
