Glad that this episode focused mainly on the 4 MCs, in particular Akari and Chinatsu.

Didn't like the opening as much as the first season's but otherwise it was good. I actually thought at first that they decided to change Akari's role in the series but it quickly became pretty obvious that it was a dream as it went overboard to say the least >.>

But yeah, good stuff.

I laughed so hard at the part in the opening credits, when the spotlight misses Akari.

HAHAHAHA!!! Oh....poor Akari....no presence whatsoever.

Akari's dream at the start is pure gold, great way to start up the new season. Fun episode, that skull crush scene "cracked" me up.

Very funny indeed. I guessed it was a dream pretty much straight away. Akari was never that popular with the other girls! ^_^

Apparently I'm in the minority here: I found this to be kind of a meh premiere.

Meh OP and ED (liked the first series' a lot better and really wished they'd have given at least a little OP/ED screentime to someone beyond the big 4), WEIRD first half. Second half was win tho. Chinatsu's brief dere moment toward Kyōko left me scratching my head a bit - as if I needed the waters muddied even further.

Seriously thought Akari's dream was actually her sister's fantasy/story/something; much disappoint that we still haven't really seen her. Was really looking forward to her adding a bit of creep to the first series, but LOLnope. A dream like that, tho...pretty well solidifies the idea that Akari's got a bit of an ego, however repressed it may be. Prob'ly a good thing in her case - she'd prob'ly be a total wallflower otherwise. XD

Hoping for a lot less Toshiderp; I absolutely hated how stupid Kyōko got near the end of s1. Not that I wanna see less of her - I just hope they dial the stupidity back down. I actually find Kyōko really interesting when she's not acting like a complete retard. Also hoping for more of the Akari/Chinatsu tandem; fun things tend to happen in scenes with them as the focal point.

Shipping Akari/Chitose until further notice.

I see that Akari still as much screen time as ever.
And more yuri between the others.

That hair eating the table tennis/ping pong balls.

One of the few fun parts with Akari turns out to be a dream, huh.
Not a bad episode for the start of the season, lacks student council though.

5/5

Start to the season in style, the quality of the designs and animations, is greater than that seen in the first season, with vivid colors, animations and drawings without the slightest error.
Storytelling fun and Akari much present in the story.
Very nice the Opening and Ending.

First part kind was kinda irritating, since it was too obvious that Akari wasn't really getting all that attention, but it was dragged out anyway. At least she can dream though?

That part where Mirakurun pretty much murders Ganbo with that hammer really caught me off guard though!

Akari is such a kind hearted good girl. She really deserved that first half even if it was just a dream, haha. Very good episode to start off the second season.

Holy sweet fuck I could not stop laughing xDD This humor is just golden. Her hair eating the balls, Akarin decking Kyouko in the face with the paddle xD The fuckin floating sunglasses thing having it's head smashed in and the reaction just too funny. So bizarre and awesome.

It was plain awful to see Akarin in the center of attention even though I feel bad whenever Akarin gets the short end of the stick.

The first half of this episode was better than the entirety of the first season. I hope the rest of the season can live up to it.

Fantastic start for the season. Scary Chinatsu and best girl Akarin were great! I hope this season can surpass the first. Plus I really want to see more of Akari's sister.

I see, Karamatsu is a reincarnation of Akarin (or is it the other way around) Whatever, both of them are amazing and I love them a lot!

May Akari's dream come true (not) But really, she deserves more love.

Time for Akari to disappear, I'm gonna love this season, too! 9/10

They'd be made for each other, if not the age difference.

Karamatsu is karamatsu, the immortal. He doesn't age... does he?

That Akarin first half. xD Akari would only wish to get a fourth of that attention lmao. Loved the second part more though lol.
Chinatsu eating all those Ping Pong balls. xD The last moment was cute lol, but yet again they forgot about Akari. xD

So the first part was just a dream. Haha I saw that coming. Even Ayano was yelling "Akaza Akari" instead of "Toshino Kyouko". lol
The second part was silly and funny. I liked it. Chinatsu's hair was scary! D: Mirakurun's movie was so random and graphic. omg xD

After the first season I'm back to watch for the umpteenth time this second season, hoping to get to watch all the seasons and not only, this anime series. Compared to the previous one, the opening and the ending are less fresh. What does not change is the comedy and the pleasure that is found in the characters. Furthermore, the quality of the drawings has increased compared to the past. Even after so many years, I enjoyed watching this episode.

I'm not sure why or when the word "epic" was first coined, but I have a strong feeling it was first done after seeing that opening. IT WAS EPIC ~AKARINNNNNNN~

Both parts were fantastic, there's something about the comedy it gets so right, I actually laugh out rather than simply smile for most comedies I see

Speechless, probably this is the best Yuru Yuri so far, and, can't describe how I laughed when seeing Kyouko's face after Akari's mishit.

Excellent OP.

A great start to the second season.

"Why is the sky blue?"
"Because you're all so cute!"

It makes perfect sense. xD

Aww, Sakurako and Himawari wanted a morning kiss from Akarin. Lol at Chinatsu and Ayano's reactions.

Cute Akarin cookies. I'm sure they are delicious.

Everyone is in love with Akarin. Of course, it was all a dream. Poor girl.

That ping pong match was pretty fun. Ouch! That had to hurt.. Well, revenge is sweet.

Chinatsu's hair eats ping pong balls. O_o That was such a random and creepy moment. x3

Kyouko's pout face is too cute. <3

Also, R.I.P Ganbo. Mirakurun Hammer was a little too much.
