this was an average episode. about standard for what i'd expect for a "stranded in the wilderness and forced to work together in order to survive" type of storyline. i just...am still struggling with how *this* is what the show has turned into. and i have no clue what that muscle man is doing

dropping this series to 6/10

episode 8 was so confusing for me, personally but towards the ending i could grasp a few things;
1.i think Sakura likes Ayanokoji

2.Yoshida acted weird to Ayanokoji when Sakura left him

3.A surprise test for THE WHOLE WEEK!?

Ok there's just no way the bald dude from class A is the leader. It's just a trap to make other classes believe he is one so that they'll lose points... there's no way someone that's supposed to be so smart walk with their leader card in his hands and talk about being the leader outloud... right? He most likely knew Class D was around there. And MC is aware of this which is why he didn't tell Hirata anything like he said he was going to
Also I get Class D is overrall full with nice people but inviting someone from another class in is plain stupid even if she's not planning anything.
Blonde beautiful dude is the hightlight of this show btw

Why not pledge to earn enough points to both have a surplus afterwards as well as purchase the reusable toilet? That would get everyone motivated.
Instead of walking the girl back to their own camp, why not walk her back to hers?
Kouenji aka Tarzan here just lost points for his class and he doesn't even look sick. He acts like he is the protagonist.

"Careful, we don't know who could be listening, we can't make any dumb mistake.

AS THE LEADER, I-"
Bald 30yo-looking student holding his leader card in an incredibly visible manner, 2017.

Unless it's some trick to make it seem like he is the leader when it's actually someone else, I'm pretty sure I've just found one of the dumbest characters in anime.

Aside from that, this show is really not redeeming itself in my eyes. The characters are uninteresting aside maybe from Ayanokouji (who I still don't expect to be anything amazing anyway), the rules are illogical, when there's no blatant fanservice, we have an entire subplot about girls needing to use the toilets (in any normal anime, I wouldn't have questioned this being brought up in a survival plot, but this show isn't the "normal" kind), and overall the show is really taking itself way too seriously for what it is. Go on, just go and quote Sartre to appear smart for an episode of Survivor with dumb students applying camping stuff to the life on a deserted island. The worst thing is that the initial idea for this episode AND for the show as a whole could've made for something truly interesting, but instead we get... That.
I'm in such a state that I end up appreciating the blonde rich boy (who I initially couldn't stand) because while absolutely flat so far, at the very least he can be quite funny.
I don't want to be too harsh because I know many people enjoy it but... Yeah, I'm quite baffled at how stupid things can be in this "deep and philosophical" show.

EP 9

SO LUCKILY the school is not totally bastards who sent them out to die but still. on survivor i honestly dont know what they are given but almost nothing i think



Looks like most likely some big plot twist is gonna happen in ep 10. They actually skipped the op this time which is kinda.
Its kinda silly because since like what, ep 3, the points havent been super important and they havent really focused on it. Meanwhilee
Feels like most of the episode was just a setup and sakura being a moeblob but I dunno. suzune cant really do much since its not her expertise, and now they have to just prepare and then see what the other classes are doing.

Kouenji wtf?! I was hoping he finally show his good useful side.. but Ike is MVP of episode

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;)

I still don't understand Koenji, he has to have a good reason for all this, lol.

Nice start of the arc. I don't really like how Sakura keeps going for Ayanokouji.
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones!

@Skydis agent 47 has infiltrated the school lol

Infinitely better than the last like 2 episodes. I wonder how this will end though... I feel like Class D is missing something. Is that girl from Class C going to sabotage them somehow? Also why was Koenji disqualified for being sick? He looks perfectly fine to me

You definitely did not realize this, but the last two episodes were fillers. The source material readers utter hate them(well, they also hate the anime adaptation, but they hate the fillers more)

@Tyrecty Yeah I get that they were filler but I wasn't just going to skip them. I try to not skip filler... Unless it actually becomes a chore to watch lol in that case I would skip it, but there hasn't been a show with filler that's made me want to do that yet.

Kind of curious to see what the source material is like though.

Most source material readers will tell you to check it out if you can. The anime cut a lot of contents that would have made a lot of things make sense/coherent, jumbled different sort of stuffs together to fit the episode length and made some stark changes to some things. For example, Ayanokouji is super awkward and more human in the source material. He sucks at making friends when he tries to, and has interesting thoughts about a lot of things, and isn't the same one liner emotionless dude you see in the anime.

The anime tries so hard to sell him as this edgy sigma lord. [I see you've completed s01, so this isn't a spoiler: what he monologues at the end of the season was more of a commentary on how the white room made him see the world, and less as the "evil MC twist" the anime tries to sell. Matter of fact: he didn't even monologue that when Horikita came to thank him. It was at a different part and he was reflecting on himself and not monologuing as a response to someone]

And speaking of the ending of the season, the anime tries to sell Horikita as this tsundere love interest. In the source material, she was anything but that. In fact, she isn't the only main girl that's supposed to be in this season aside from maybe Kushida. The anime made Horikita like the one that mattered the most and gave the role of other characters to her.

Speaking of Ayanokouji's backstory, it gets explored soon. In the source material, he is kind of an unreliable narrator(he tries as much as he can to hide it from the readers and other characters, because he desperately wants to forget it).

Koenji is de facto sadistic and he would have been in A class but he came down to D to harvest the emotion he wanted to experience.
