Funny / Accomplishments of the Duke's Daughter

• Dida's reaction to the Armelia family maids learning about conditioner and mobbing Iris.
  Dida: "...Holy shit, the girls have gone rabid."
  • Even better, it's implied this was a gambit on Iris' part to set up her own personal commercial to start having Azuta branch into beauty products, complete with framing that wouldn't look out of place in a TV ad, meaning this was all Just as Planned.
• Generally, Iris is a genuinely good person exploiting her knowledge of economics to help the little guy in society...but she's not without her own petty pleasures. Her inner monologue makes it very clear how she feels about her mother, an influential socialite, snubbing the father of the man who held her down and humiliated her back at school.
  Iris' Inner Thoughts: "EAT THAT, DORSSEN!"
• Dida has an...interesting opinion of women, which is only shattered when he sees his lord and another career-focused woman talk about the best ways to organize documents for business.
  Dida: ...Hey, Tanya? Both the princess and Leti are pretty young, right?
  Tanya: ...What of it?
  Dida: It's just...I imagined a conversation between two young women to be a little more bright and flowery. Y'know, about their favorite restaurants? Or guys they're interested in, right?
  Tanya: How do you see women in that shallow mind of yours?
• Related to the above, Iris and Leticia are just so charmed to meet another career-focused woman they can talk to that they spend most of their conversation treating poor Alfred like a third wheel.
• After the war with Tweil breaks out, and Alfred, the new king, has to go to the front to support and command the troops, Leticia confronts him to convince him to give up his kingship, which he only took on out of a sense of duty so that he can go and be with Iris, while she becomes the queen of the country out of a genuine desire to rule and affect real change. The funny part is that she starts this off by cheerfully announcing that she is conducting a coup d'état to depose her brother.
