Trapped in a Dating Sim Leons Racing Challenge Leads to Another New Friendship

The following contains spoilers for Episode 7 of Trapped in a Dating Sim, “We Both Hate Hot Guys,” now streaming on Crunchyroll.

Trapped in a Dating Sim stars the plucky isekai underdog Leon Bartfort, who will need more than armored mech combat skills and a sharp tongue to survive in this otome game world. He needs to forge strong, meaningful relationships with the right people, and in Episode 7, Leon expands his social circle once again with Lady Clarice.

Leon has already formed a “squad” with Angelica and Olivia, and has even won the royal family’s favor after defeating prince Julius in the mech arena. Now he can explore the possibilities of having Lady Clarice as a grateful ally, and in many ways, she is the new Angelica Redgrave. That could be promising.

Episode 7 of Trapped in a Dating Sim moves on from the dramatic school culture festival and moves on to high-speed hoverbike racing, which feels like a combination of NASCAR and Star Wars-style podracing. Prince Julius is nowhere to be seen — instead, Leon and Olivia must deal with the obnoxious Jilk, one of Julius’ best friends, but the prince has a few problems on his hands. Jilk suffered an injury in his recent race and cannot take part in the next contest. Worse yet, he is at personal odds with his fiancée, Lady Clarice, since he has moved on to the scheming Marie instead.

Julius shocked everyone in previous episodes when he ditched his elegant fiancee Angelica Redgrave for Marie, to the point where Leon fought him for Angelica’s sake in that arena. Even now, Dating Sim’s main characters must deal with the fallout of the Julius/Angelica/Marie affair, and now that goes double with Clarice and Jilk.

Lady Clarice cannot stand her fiancé abandoning her in favor of Marie, but that is where Leon steps in. He politely challenges Clarice’s best racer, Dan, on the racetrack and wins, then demands that Jilk formally apologize to Clarice. Jilk does so, but Clarice states that she is done with him. She moves on to the next phase — which has room for Leon in it.

Like Julius, Jilk makes a serious personal sacrifice to protect his loving relationship with Marie, and that shows just how effective a manipulator the latter really is. Most tragically of all, Marie doesn’t even love Jilk back — she simply convinced him to love her more than he does his fiancée, which wounds Lady Clarice’s heart. Hence, Clarice washes her hands of Jilk and takes an interest in Leon who, despite being a smart-mouthed antihero, won’t stoop to manipulation or toying with people’s hearts.

Clarice personally thanks Leon for demanding that Jilk apologize to her, and for giving her a brief pep talk to boost her flagging spirits. She shows clear appreciation for Leon and his actions, and for that matter, so does Dan. This is good news for Leon, while spiting Jilk is an added bonus. The real gain is having Lady Clarice as a friend and ally, and in Trapped in a Dating Sim’s otome game, having trustworthy comrades means everything.

It’s not yet clear what Leon can get from his friendships to Angelica and Clarice, but they are bound to pay off soon and give Leon many options he wouldn’t have as an isekai lone wolf. Clarice and Angelica both hail from powerful families, after all.
