English Dub Review: You are Ms. Servant “What You Want to Protect.”


Overview

After the After School Nurse incident, Yuki decides to become Hitoyoshi’s bodyguard, sticking to him 24/7. When she is distracted for a moment, a woman named Grace appears and takes Hitoyoshi hostage, seeking to kill Yuki for prestige and revealing her dark past…

Our Take

This episode was pretty damn good when it came to high-stakes action and intense confrontations and subtle emotional depth. Yuki’s exceptional abilities are on full display, delivering visually striking sequences while also hinting at a mysterious past and other things about Yuki even I didn’t expect. However, I had to watch certain parts of the subbed version as it’s revealed that Yuki can fluently speak Chinese and the Dub didn’t bother to translate what was said between Yuki and the Nurse.

The rest of the proceedings maintain a refreshing balance between tension and humor, with character interactions adding charm and levity to the story even when new challenges arise, pushing the characters, while the dynamic between the leads continues to evolve in meaningful ways.

Overall, this episode highlights a new challenge for both Yuki and Hitoyoshi. The unfolding journey of the central duo provides a compelling narrative hook, as they navigate challenges while building trust and understanding without losing its unique charm. And while it wasn’t perfect, it still left me curious enough to see where it goes next!
