Damn, that was a tense episode. The first half really had its moments with the students. I do kinda like how Inaba kept his cool and tried to figure things out with his mental skills though.

As for the episode itself, I think Chiaki made a strong impression of himself.

The teacher/students drama really reached to new heights regarding behavior.

In this episode, Chiaki showed the school a different side of him. He got very upset when a student cheated on a test with a cell phone. The students were very surprised. A general assembly was held and things got intense. Inaba came up with a quick solution to quiet things down. It got resolved at the end, but some students still feel indifferent about Chiaki.

Chiaki getting angry at the student betraying his trust, general assembly and the students are easily swayed.
Aoki ruining things and some students hate chiaki now.

Yet another episode to repeat the same philosophy about life and society, with a different situation. Really aren't they tired of it ?

Phew, that's what they got for betraying "Trust". But surely it's not gonna move smoothly since the "Orleans' Maid" trying to oppose him.

lol that was interesting assembly and quite hilarious only to get cringy the moment it turned into bargaining

And I knew it, from the looks of the preview, Chiaki would end up being the one possessed since the start of the 2nd cour

Tbh that trio girls around inaba are the only interesting characters since they appear in the show

I really hate Aoki-sensei now
Before she's just annoying.. but this... no
I don't know but students shouting at formal assembly.. It's not normal and annoying

A month? Oh wow.. It's still Chiaki-sensei's win xD
"Shat de doa in the fais" nice engrish
Yep... That's what I thought.. Chiaki-sensei is a strategist

Well that's people for you, never not disappointing with their hate thoughts

Chiaki and Kamiya for the saving of the day along with Inaba's help.

Judging from the preview something big will happen next week.

I think I just got culture shocked here. I didn't get this episode at all, why were they making such a fuss about someone cheating? How does taking away some kid's phone for a month benefit anybody? Why is Chiaki acting like he's their dad? Why did the student council president have to apologise for something she didn't do? Why is punishing the whole student body ok?

It just felt weird.

I agree, as a European this would not have played out that way in my old school.

I think group punishments and leaders being responsible for their subordinates is a much more common and accepted thing in Japanese culture. For example in episode 18 of Youkai Apartment the new guys at the moving company that Yushi works at make a mistake and both Yushi and their supervisor are the ones apologizing for it.

I thought it is a standard that smarphones for students must be alaways kept inside their locker cabinets? just like workplace offices? (cuz there are some offices that smartphones are not allowed if you know what i mean)
4/5.

This is what happens when you abused a very good person like Chiaki-sensei. He's like the coolest teacher, but they took his kindness for granted, so I'm on his side throughout the time. But let me just bring up that I'm against with the limitations in using mobile phones because how about emergency? Like your parents are calling you over an emergency. I swear this type of rules concerning mobile phones are ridiculous. Allow them, but tell them to put it on silent mode, or once someone's calling them, let the students show them who they're talking to for proof or whatnot.

This episode made me realize how much I fucking hate the guts of that Haruka-sensei. Humiliating my Chiaki on stage. Fuck her! She can choke!

Glad Kamiya and Chiaki-sensei managed to get through this, but Chiaki gained haters in the school. Heck, haters gonna hate. Lmao.

CHIAKI-SENSEI, DAISUKI! <3

This felt like a poorly executed episode. It wasn't nearly as subtle as the others and it felt overly preachy.

26 episodes??¿¿ i was hoping to hold on for maybe two more, nah. i'm dropping it.
this show could have been brilliant IF it in fact featured youkais and magic, but all I see is school drama. took this long, but now my patience says bye bye.

I don't know. There's never much discussion to be had on MAL. Unless it's just people arguing back and forth, of course.

Unfortunately, that's basically been the entire second-half of the show. It can be very preachy and silly. Like @neko_cola said, it's barely even about the youkai. The title of the show should be "Not-so-elegant school life."

1 month for recidivist cheaters is extremely lenient. Cheating IS a big deal unless you are the son of a big name in a corrupted country, so hopefully you're culture shocked from your other remarks rather than from this.

Is it? We keep them on our desk at work and at school a decade ago we had to keep them in our bags, otherwise it was ok.

All of it really. I'm from a country where cheating is not seen as a big deal.

You really have no punishments for cheating at big exams (those where you get a real diploma) ? Here in France, you're banned from taking further exams or even enter an university, up to 5 years. Now think about it. Do you want to get your belly opened by a surgeon who cheated his exams ? Do you want to live in a house whose carpenter cheated his exams ? Do you want your ambassadors screwing up and trigger a war against another country because they cheated their exams ? No you don't, and unfortunately some of them are here around you, and they replace someone who would do the job better but failed some kind of selection at some point.
Now, it's not like they had such a big exam in this anime, but here you go. Better teach them it's a big deal before they think about doing it when we don't want them to.

Two lessons I learned as a working adult are that 90% of people suck at their job and your school performance really, really doesn't translate to job performance. A lot of what you take tests on is random bullshit and busywork. I really don't care if my cardiologist cheated in his neurology class or even failed some random other class unrelated to his specialization, and his highschool results interest me even less.

I used to think differently, but I consistently see people performing great at jobs they never studied for and failing at jobs they did study for. I'm in tech support, of my higher-level colleagues, between the dude with several certifications and experience as a sys admin, a girl who studied comp sci and has years of experience doing this job, and a girl who studied germanology or some bull topic like that and climbed up the job ladder after swearing up and down that she can't into tech, the most technically capable one is the germanology girl just out of sheer bull-headedness and intellectual curiosity.

Schooling matters, but a lot less than students and people involved in academia think.

Chiaki had every right to be mad. He gave his students the freedom with their smartphones and did they do? They betrayed his trust. Of course he would get mad if a student is cheating with their phone during a test. What did they expect?! He takes his job as a teacher seriously.

Aoki is just so damn annoying. God, both her and Yamamoto.

That was awkward. This whole Chiaki vs. Aoki was pretty silly and poorly executed.

All this school drama in a series like this is just too much.

Not a fan of the whole Japanese mentality of if one person does something wrong the whole group is to blame and must be punished. Something I never really understood, and really I thought was a dated mentality, but maybe I am wrong. That being said though I'm kinda getting tired of this show, it was a mess to begin with but it was somewhat enjoyable at first, but ever since about half way through it's become this preachy morality lesson thing and it's getting old. I also kinda hate that he's given this magical book and he's trained himself to use it better yet the show barely ever puts it to use other than very minor plot points. Also what happened to this being a supernatural slice of life show, at this point it's just a poorly written high school drama used to push the author's (or maybe the anime producer's, not sure how close this is sticking to the source meterial) personal ideals...

The midterms exams are here. One student was caught cheating using the smartphone making Chiaki sensei very mad. So a resolution needed to be found to resolve the smartphone issue at school. Not everyone is happy with how things were handled.
