Fans are talking about Ascendance of a Bookworm: Adopted Daughter of an Archduke #11 โ here's what they had to say.
Ferdinand fighting at full power is honestly way too cool, but Myne stumbling upon those shady letters instead of rare books is peak comedy.

Praise be to the gods! ๐ Pray to the gods! ๐โโ๏ธ
Commenter
An even stronger enemy than Gorze: sleepiness.
Commenter
Wait, is this the kind of anime where we fight magical beasts? ๐บ
Commenter
Rosemyne is so adorable (*ยด๊ณ`*)
Commenter
Rosemyne is way more chill than expected.
Commenter
Myne-chan is getting sleepy ๐
Commenter
Sleepiness... well, it *does* have "ma" (demon/evil) in the word lol.
Commenter
Sleepiness is truly the enemy of all mankind.
Commenter
Her Highness always manages to turn a normal gathering trip into a huge deal, smh.
Commenter
I mean, it is past her bedtime! Hang in there, Lady Roze!
Commenter
Gotta say, I kinda like this ending card screen.
Commenter
Of all times for the parasympathetic nervous system to kick in!!!
Commenter
It's late night, can't really blame her for being sleepy lol.
Commenter
Don't fall asleep, you'll literally die if you do, Lady Rosemyne!
Commenter
Hurry up and get here, Lord Ferdinand! (So sleepy rn)
Commenter
That face Rosemyne makes when he says "Well done" is so cute.
Commenter
All smiles after getting praised by Lord Ferdinand. Absolute perfection...
Commenter
Gotta love the High Priest when he actually decides to be nice.
Commenter
Wait, is she suddenly wide awake now?!
Commenter
He's not even wearing armor, is the High Priest gonna be okay?
Commenter
A zweihander is just a big two-handed sword, huh.
Commenter
Zweihander = two-handed sword???
Commenter
Whoa, Lord Ferdinand going all out is seriously so badass.
Commenter
Was the magic power Rosemyne gave him just *that* massive?
Commenter
There goes the barrier! The barrier is literally shattering!
Commenter
Ah, so Lord Ferdinand going full power means he needs someone to shield the allies...
Commenter
Lord Ferdinand is way too OP.
Commenter
That was over in a flash! Hayamin's voice acting is top tier as always.
Commenter
"This magic stone is defective. Useless."
Commenter
Gathering ruelle fruit is a fail. Too much mixed-up magic power.
Commenter
The beast's mount doesn't even fly with its wings, yet it still flaps them lol.
Commenter
?! She can make *that* face??
Commenter
Lord Ferdinand is way too cool for words lmaooo.
Commenter
Such a clumsy way to comfort someone, Ferdinand-sama.
Commenter
Soft Ferdinand is the best.
Commenter
I wanna get headpats from Lord Ferdinand too (my sinful desires speaking).
Commenter
Can't she just make another one?
Commenter
The animation feels super stable and cute today.
Commenter
Oh, look at that gentle expression when he tells her "Don't cry."
Commenter
Guess the magic stone creation was a total bust.
Commenter
Ferdinand saying "Don't cry" has me simping hard ngl.
Commenter
"I'm not crying! My eyes are just drooling..." - what a lame excuse lolw
Commenter
That combat scene was wrapped up almost as quickly as early Frieren.
Commenter
Rosemyne battling sleepiness instead of Gorze. Fall asleep and it's over. Magic sword slash turns the magic stone useless for Jueve. What a world where magic power is basically liquid sealed away.
Commenter
The magical beast extermination wrapped up at the speed of light w
Commenter
Gorze is down, but the magic stone is useless for Jueve.
Commenter
Preparing for winter. Gotta stock up on preserved food I guess.
Commenter
*Glug glug* (pouring tea)
Commenter
Hmm hmm ( หฯห ) The art really is top tier here...
Commenter
Bringing up the Noble Academy stuff now would just clutter the plot.
Commenter
Wait, carrying that small chalice filled with liquid in a carriage without a lid is totally a no-go mission.
Commenter
Oh nice, donations actually come with tangible perks. Wish that was a thing irl.
Commenter
Wait, Lady Rosemyne's holy water?!
Commenter
Bruh, there are totally other fruits right there โ๏ธ
Commenter
So *that's* how they were storing the small chalices.
Commenter
The High Priest's workload is no joke man.
Commenter
Story just keeps moving smoothly even without getting the magic stone lol.
Commenter
If you don't explicitly say there's magic power in that chalice, it just looks like some sketchy liquid...?
Commenter
Give me reading time rn lol. Rare books?! Wait, is this a banned book?!
Commenter
Love how Myne gets all hyped up over books.
Commenter
You can't stop Rosemyne once she hears the word "rare book."
Commenter
The High Priest chuckling a bit while comforting her. Such a softie.
Commenter
Hiding letters like it's some shady stash of secret money.
Commenter
Thought it was a rare book, but turns out it's just a letter.
Commenter
Rare... wait, what even counts as a *not* rare book...
Commenter
The cover looks super fancy like a rare book... wait, it's not even a book.
Commenter
A love letter...? Packed with a ton of complaints, but the passion is real...
Commenter
Is this basically a love letter?
Commenter
A love letter to the former High Priest?!
Commenter
A love letter addressed to the former High Priest......... yikes.
Commenter
Why on earth would anyone think that beer belly (former High Priest) gets "love letters."
Commenter
Guess she's pretty into these little hidden gimmicks.
Commenter
A box? A letter? A love letter?!
Commenter
Library -> Wait, this isn't a book, it's a box. A letter from the former High Priest. Guess he had someone he secretly fancied.
Commenter
Ah, this is Sylvester's sister...
Commenter
Exchanging letters with a woman who "was born as the successor, only to have her little brother steal the spot and get married off left and right," all while dealing with the High Priest.
Commenter
Left behind a mountain of bribery evidence w
Commenter
If she had just reported the contents of that letter properly......
Commenter
Well, she just stumbled upon something super sketchy.
Commenter
Viscount Gerlach's name drops again.
Commenter
So a "rare book" was actually just a hiding spot for personal letters.
Commenter
The real question is why on earth was this left alone for so long.
Commenter
Viscount Gerlach making the most evil face ever >.<
Commenter
Bribery negotiations disguised as a love letter.
Commenter
Plot twist: it's actually cipher text disguised as pure romance.
Commenter
Bribery exchange lol Wait, are we sure those pure love letters aren't super sus too?
Commenter
Even the love letters look sketchy tbh, better just leak the whole lot.
Commenter
Ferdinand's plotting face lmaoooo.
Commenter
Even when he's scheming he still looks like a bishounen.
Commenter
I live for Rosemyne's side-eye at Lord Ferdinand!
Commenter
Veronica finally getting brought up.
Commenter
"We don't really need to show him *this* love letter." And then Rosemyne asks who Veronica actually is. Answer: Sylvester's mother.
Commenter
Your Excellency, that letter is definitely not pure romance, it's super cursed, hand it over to the High Priest already.
Commenter
The name of the step-grandmother dropping right here.
Commenter
A love letter...? Sweating rn. Ah, if only she handed *all* of them over...
