Mm, Sistine's family dresses pretty nice. They got that feel of royalty.

Felt bad for Rumia again. Feels like she's always been on the receiving end of pain of some sorts in this show so far. Still, I think she is lucky to have someone like Glenn around who is always trying to help her.

Glen has food money is at stake tho it's his own fault.
The class seems to be enjoying it tho they are very motivated to win the competition.
Anyway Lumia seems to have more too lose her judging the situation.

And Shironeko's parents are also pretty interesting seeing how her father reacted.

Really great episode although it feels like the pacing for this episode was oddly fast for some reason.

With Glen's judgment, he selected the most appropriate students for each competition. It's great to see Class 2 working together, doing their best, and supporting each other. :)

Always makes me lol to see Glen worrying about his allowance. xD Rumia did great withstanding the Count's magic spells in the mental defense competition and my goodness, that Count is a big pervert lol!

Sisti has become so damn likable and cute lol, she's getting so much better with each episode, I love it....I'm with her dad 100%, she and Rumia are way too awesome >.< (Their mom is hot too)

This episode was a lot of fun solely because of how enthusiastic the class is because best boy Glenn had faith in them all and fully understood all of their strengths like a great teacher SHOULD and seeing them all have fun makes me happy because that's what matters at the end of the day

I must say though that the real MVP here is Rumia, this girl has clearly been through a lot but I love her drive, determination and straight up love and loyalty for her friends and teacher and seeing her mom (I'm guessing that's her mom?) see this through her own eyes is a joy to see

For that reason alone, I hope that she can get to have a 1 on 1 with Rumia because I would really love to see that and I think that'll benefit the both of them in a positive way (Also I'm 99% sure now that the guy from Rumia's past was Glenn lol)

Great episode overall and I hope that their class wins the competition but I did not expect to see those 2 new characters pop up at the end, yet alone at the same time....I wonder what's the deal with them (Maybe they were in the military with Glenn?)

P.S. That last instructor was way too creepy lol and I died when the principal was all like "Let's fire him" LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

This episode kinda had Ansatsu Kyoushitsu vibes for me... the way how the teacher put his faith in his students and was looking up to each of their talents and personalities in secret...
Didn't expect the competition to start in the episode, and thus the pace was very good throughout. Class 2 managed to do great with Glenn's backing.
Even though Glenn had no idea what he was getting into after all that encouragement he gave to his students, I didn't like that character break but oh well...
And Sistina saved Glenn's ass from Class 1's teacher Haley. So I'm guessing the bet is off now? Good for Glenn.
Also, the ED has nice visuals, and the illustration at the end this week was pretty too~

Feel really bad for Rumia. At least Sistine and her family treat her as one of their own.

That pervert instructor needs to get fired.

Dunno about the LN, but the manga had a bit more content here. It was explained how exactly Glenn helped the contestants with his tips and advice, while here they only showed the very fact that he was helping. They also omitted why Glenn needs the money in the first place. (He lost it all gambling)

This ep was yet another awesome one!
Despite Glen's motives, I think he really does care about his students, his judgement on who should participate in that range were all correct.
I thought Sisti was gonna be one of those beta tsundere bitches, guess I was wrong, she's slowly becoming likable, Im still with Rumia tho! that girl is just a box full of sweets, I can damn understand why the pervert teacher wanted some Rumia action ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) but still, control yourself man.
We finally see the 2 characters in the OP and that blue haired loli like girl that seems to be one of the main girls in this show, about damn time!
Sisti and Rumia's biological moms tho.... MILF's I tell yah! fucking MILFs!

PS: We finally get the ED, cute song and visuals.

Got to see Sistine's family. They really care for her. Glenn is broke, so he made sure his class needs to win. They were doing better than expected. The class were really motivated to win. Rumia did great withstanding the Count's magic spells. He was being a pervert and is getting fired. Also got to see her mother. She feels bad for abandoning her. She feels content Rumia is happy.

Aaww, Sisti. Come on, why did you have to be Glen's "party-pooper" in this episode? First about the student that represent each class, and then about those Three-months salary wages.

Really fun and light hearted episode.

I love how Glen shows care and passion for his students but with his own ulterior motives. XD
I find it funny how he's doing it all for money and his bet with the Class 1 teacher, the guy must be broke. It's nice that despite all his ulterior motives and reasons he does actually pay attention to his students. Loved the part where he chose students for the different activities.

We get a glimpse at Rumia's past and her mother. Looking forward to knowing more about that.

Sisti's Dad is awesome, he has the same reaction as me. XD Sisti and Rumi are both wonderful especially Sisti since she's grown on me a lot since episode 1.

The magic games are pretty fun and it's nice that Rumi won at the end. :)

Classic Glenn getting way in over his head. It never gets old. I love it. Even though the pacing is a bit crazy so far...



I also tried my best to photoshop the final image of the ED for a good background without the credits. A little sloppy and I spent only like 5 minutes but I think that it came out ok :P Would love for a creditless Bluray version. If anyone wants to improve on it, be my guest.

He's too Obvious... whether his own class.. would win by default...

Good thing his salary for the Next Three Month was solved..

It's good to see Glenn's hardworking skills even though as a Scumbag..

No one back down... in the competition... Nice one!! Indeed..

And Who could else that be.. at the last scene...

Acquaintances or a Foe... Neither...

Wow, quite an entertaining episode. I noticed a cute trap, Cecil, I'm quite enjoying the colorful class actually, which makes me sad this show will only be 12 episodes and probably won't give enough time for them to shine. Maybe a season 2 in the future would be nice. Also, I'm glad Rumia's not the stereotypical weak gentle nice girl and actually pretty cool.

Quite a good show so far, nice to have something to enjoy this season.

Super rushed episode, very boring turn of events and I'm thoroughly disheartened that Glenn is actually strong at all after he was beaten up so easily by them half-ass dark mages in episode 2-3. I heard from friends that he's not so weak due to certain circumstances so I'm going to stick through until the end, but they sure are wasting money by putting in these lame developments. It better get more juicy, because I love the persona of the lazy protagonist.

This was one of those episodes you can tell they really rushed through the material with them jumping from scene to scene and seemingly speeding through their lines without properly pacing most of the jokes out or giving them the spacing and delivery they needed.

Oh well though I guess they deemed this novel unimportant and want to cover 3 and 4 this season? I assume it is to 4 from the opening since i can't imagine they would try get to 5.

They rushed through all the training parts and all of Glen's blunderous antics again... it was less funny than I expected it to be because they were rushing through one joke misunderstanding after another.... I guess they really want to finish this arc in 3 episodes or less.

Time fore the drama to unfold now.... Re=L deadpan incoming. XDDDD

Interesting episode
Though the magic competition was the main plot it was also nice to see a bit of Rumia's part of the plot in the episode as well. So this queen doesn't seem to be as bad i thought she will be. Sure she thought that Rumia's family had all died but it seems that she bears no ill will towards Rumia and seems to be happy that she's survived and grown to become a teenager. At the same time she's seem glad that she's made a lot of friends and has a good mentor teaching her.

Hmm in steps the members of the government or maybe the royal family since they seem to know Rumia intimately.
So this is the queen of the kingdom eh
So the queen still intends to keep Rumia's existence a secret then eh
Yet at the same time she still wants to see her eh
Love the opening theme though Konomi Suzuki is such a great singer. Been a fan of her since i heard her sing the opening for Ange verge and Re Zero.
Gathering people for competitions is always hard though since most will be too scared of embarrassing themselves.
Ah so this is to show a performance to the queen eh.
That will put much more pressure on the students.
Lol Great teacher Glenn. Great parody of GTO though.
Hmm Glenn is determined to make his students win eh.
Unusual to see him so fired up though
Knowing the strengths and weaknesses of each student though and allocating them correctly where they can apply these is pretty impressive for Glenn.
Hmm Glenn's analysis of Wendy's weaknesses and explanation of why he put her in that group was well done and explained actually.
Wow to think that Glenn can be this good at organizing his students when he's serious though

Sistine's impression and view of him has really changed since the attack though.
Glenn and Celica's relationship though sure is interesting
So thats the reason why he wants his students to win eh. To get paid early so as to avoid starving eh.
Hmm well using the top ranking students for the competitions will be standard practice for any competition. Though useful it prevents the whole class from getting the chance to take part though. Something that Sistine is determined not to allow to happen.
Lol Sistine completely derailed Glenn's plan there
Lol Glenn's way of treating Halley is just hillarious
Looking down on people is something that Glenn absolutely hates so its to be expected that he will be angry at this arrogant teacher
Lol both ended up reacting before thinking with both having money on the line lol
Hmm it seems that Sistine has some element of power here given her noble status lol
Lol Sistine and Glenn are definitely not on the same page.
Still with so much on the line Glenn really has to step up his serious self to help them though

Lol Sistine is turning into a tsundere eh
Rumia still remembers the moment that she was saved eh
Since her true parents were killed when she was little the current queen isn't much of a relative to her at all. Her parents now are Sistine's parents.
Lol Sistine's parents are pretty hillarious.
The mother especially looks to be the dominant one in the house
Hmm that maid though
As expected though thanks to Glenn's teachings the class is doing pretty well
As expected Rumia's mental defenses are solid
It seems that new characters will be appearing next episode
Friend or foe though i wonder
Love the ending theme as well
Its also nice that we get to know the members of the class more too.

The pacing of this series is insane. Even if there's only 12 episodes for this season it's still going to catch up to where the manga is right now. So much stuff skipped over to explain why things are working the way they are (especially the kids winning their competitions), his past not revealed, and they're doing like 2-3 chapters an episode. It's almost neck-break speed. This is why anime need to be allowed their original 24 episode mark like they used to be.

I did not like this episode.

We see the queen seems to dearly care about her lost daughter yet does nothing to reclaim her? What? This is a medieval society ruled by a monarchy. Rumia appears to be the only child so that makes her the heir to the throne. Hands down she would be returned back to the castle to be groomed and defended.

Also, The noble parents definitely wouldn't "have work". Noble's in such a society would rule a section of territory and answer only to higher nobles and the crown.

Basically, just a lot of dumb things happened in this episode that I felt to be out of place and nonsensical. Hopefully, the show reigns it back in a bit.

Even though this is based on the light novel. Compared to the manga the anime skipped over quite a few things. I don't know how much the manga differs from the light novel. It wasn't bad, just pointing this out.

Liked this episode. Nothing special, kind of typical tourny episode but these episode is always cheerful and not blatant stupid fanservice like swimsuit/beach episodes. And ones that actually get stuff done.

I'm really liking the main characters now. I can see where they are going with that glasses kid at this point. Also Teresa; the girl with the purple hair have some really alluring smile.
Also that perverted professor doe.
Overall pretty cool. This series isn't anything too special but at least it doesn't go in too much of those cliche.
