During the Foundation Day Fair, an interesting twist occurred as all participants decided to crossdress. The girls confidently dressed in servant's uniforms, while the boys boldly flaunted maid's attire. The entire event ran smoothly without any complications, until the unexpected arrival of the crown prince from the Empire of Loro. He made an outrageous request for a dodo bird dish. Fortunately, Rae, who was attending to him, managed to escape trouble thanks to Claire's expert handling of the situation.
Rae later suggested accompanying Claire to the fair, which Claire agreed to. At the fairgrounds, students from more humble backgrounds gathered, rallying for the cause of equal rights between nobles and commoners.
One of the students approached Rae, but Claire successfully extricated Rae from the situation. It was then revealed to her that, despite Rae's sympathies towards their cause, she remained committed to serving Claire.

Rae proceeded to gift Claire an amulet that was believed to manifest affection. Claire couldn't comprehend why Rae, who harbored romantic feelings for her, wished to witness her with Prince Thane. Rae clarified that the fulfillment of her own love paled in comparison to Claire's happiness with her beloved.
The ultimate revelation of Rae's love for Claire was brought to light when she realized that playing the game featuring Claire in the real world was her source of survival, providing her an escape from the exhaustion and suffocating nature of daily life.

Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z fan, I'm really excited for the release of Episode 8 of "I'm in Love with the Villainess". The anime has been a lot of fun so far, and I'm eager to see what happens next. I'm especially interested in seeing how the relationship between Claire and Rae develops. I think they're a really cute couple, and I'm rooting for them to get together.
I also appreciate the way the anime tackles the issue of discrimination against commoners. It's a serious issue that still exists in many parts of the world, and I think it's important to raise awareness about it. I hope that the anime will help to inspire people to fight for equality and justice for all.
