I am a bit sad about this third season. I was looking forward to it of course as the 1 and 2 seasons were great, differnt from the Manga but still great.

but this one seems a new and for me unfortunate direction. It has a kinetic, loud and forced feeling to it, like a new director is trying to put his mark on it. I wish and hope it will settle down and become more of what it should be but at t his point, frankly and I never thought i would say this, i am close to dropping it.

the story is there, the manga has laid the path clear and much can be done and wonders unveiled but at this point, i kind of cringe to think of some of the story being done in this overblown manner. Please please be a odd detour that will be corrected. From the poll lit looks like may be others feel the same. I will hope for better

Actually the director even the whole staff, writer etc are same as Season 1 and 2...I think that there is no major events in this starting episodes thats why they are trying to make these average episodes into something better..We should wait for greatness

Dont get me wrong, this has still been very good so far, but is it just me or does something just feel a bit off about this season so far? IDK, the jokes just arent hitting for me
Many people are feeling the same but its just the beginning and manga readers are hyped hence high rating , so we must wait for greatness which hasnt come yet

Didn't Shirogane just expose that he likes Kaguya?!

If the coin of 1989 disappeared and was not found among the results. One can easily deduct that if there now are 3 of the same coins whereas there were only two from the previous round with the same year one of them must be his.
Furthermore, it also shows that the person who had 1989 tried to hide his answer and would "most" likely be the one who answered yes if it was one of the same year coins.
We are only here for a short amount of time, I want to waste as much of that time possible doing nonsense

This show is too funny. My sides. Help.

What makes this show so great is that without all of the comedy, there're great messages and references to real life interactions, thoughts, anxieties and quirks. Some that many won't probably admit, but because it's laid out in the open in the funniest scenarios, it makes it all so much more enjoyable to laugh at.

The direction is also god-tier. In the beginning of this episode, it references back to a time when Shirogane took all sorts of training from Fujiwara, and Kaguya can't help but think of her 'evil influence' when Nagisa claims that Tsubasa is taking tutelage from Maki. Then it cuts to Fujiwara training Shirogane to rap. He's wearing a red hoodie and all he's doing is say 'yo yo yo.' Referencing another joke that he can't fking rap.

This show is so genius, I can't believe it. So many beautiful misunderstandings and so many equally beautiful revelations.

This season so far has taken the whole concept of the show to the next level. I can't think of a more satisfying romcom. I already solidified my love for Kaguya-sama in season 2, but now I'll protect it with my life.

Yeah, but they don't necessarily know that. If she asked him, he could just say: ''I don't know. Maybe Fujiwara changed it.'' Kaguya has no other proof other than she saw it. In fact, if she started to be adamant about knowing it, it could be dangerous because she might leave her open for Shirogane to say: ''Why are you so flustered? Could it be you want to know if I love you? How specific. I wonder why?''

Another 5/5 episode and Kaguya sama keeps on delivering the high quality content.

During the ten yen game when they showed Kaguya remembering the year of the coins to find out what Shirogane answered, I was just sitting there like :000000000 in disbelief but well our boy Shirogane is no less and attacked with a nice counter.

Honestly, I'm at loss of words about what to say, this really is the peak till now. Can't wait to watch next week's episode. Hard to see if Spy x Family is gonna be the AOTS or this, let's see, though I don't care which one of them is AOTS until t's among these two.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

Never underestimate the yandere switch being flipped on. Poor Miko had a rough time listening to Nagisa's rantings, in which Kaguya agreed to readily on almost everything she said, about how her boyfriend was cheating on her with Miko. Thankfully, that wasn't the case and with that, she french kissed him in front of the entire student council. Their reactions were hilarious! XD

Maki, on the other hand, is a cute, but serious tsundere who DOES have feelings for Nagisa's boyfriend, which was made apparent during her talk with Miyuki and Ishigami. Not just that, but she's related to Kaguya and their little talk was filled to the brim with tension. I'm sure we'll see more of Maki sooner or later.

The ten-yen game was the best part of the episode. Chika was in her element with getting everyone involved with the game and how honest they would answer to the questions, although it didn't stop both Kaguya and Miyuki from trying to rig the game to their advantage. As for me, I loved Miko's wholesome reaction to when everyone rallied around her and reassured her that she wasn't annoying and that they all like her. =3

Overall, this episode was very good, as expected of this series by now. =D

They didnt skip anything on S3 content and probably wont have to skip anything this time, but do some 3.5 chapter episodes during the season, maybe streamline a bit if they want to adapt 137-139 also this season within hopefully 13 episodes.

Next episode are 106-108, what you are referencing.

Kaguya asked the question for me :


The first 2 segments were really unfunny NGL. Not just unfunny but just plain annoying . Hope we don't see more of this new maki girl cuz she is not at all worth the time ......
But the 10 yen game was brilliant . The mind games in place were hilarious .

Overall , ishigami carried the ep . And as always , superb directing . The usage of various ,simple animating and video editing techniques is just pure comedic genius .

the 1st and 2nd parts were so weird I don't even know how to rate them. This was one of the weirdest anime episodes I ever watched. The 3rd part however was pretty enjoyable, so I guess I'll have to rate the entire episode only based on part 3, which will be a 5/5

I wouldn't be really surprised if they skipped that part since I didn't really love that training arc, also they shown it like a cameo so I thought they are hiding it under the rug this season. And I'll give you a plus for the chapter numbers, it's been years since I read this part of the series so my memory's hazy.

There was soo much win this episode, but my favorite part goes to Maki introduction, like FINALLY.
Coin game was fun too, specially with that ending, but it is good to see another great character finally getting some screentime, this was definitly needed for them to setup the journey to Festival arc, after all, it should start at ep5 or ep6.

Goddamnit. They are skipping the rap god training...

Sigh .. i wanted to see Karen today... At least we got cute Maki

I guess there was something like that, the truth is, they skip soo much already, if this was a normal adaptation, and they took 3 chapters per episode, then we should not be around chapter 81-82, far into what S2 did, and there is no way S3 would ever reach chapter 136.

Hopefully they dont skip that much from now on, that was always my major complain with the adaptation, and while not all chapters are born equally, all deserve some love, thus I would like to see OVAs covering all chapters that were skipped (in a dream world)!

hey! I want to know who was the third persion in coin game(chika's Question) who love someone. I am fine with spoiler.

and one more question in Ishigami's Question is it Chika who turned coin Yes?

To me the episode left it clear it was Ishigami that did it, because doing so he was testing if anyone hated him, since only one coin, his, no one does, and he was happy, and Miko called him on this scheme.

This season is called ultra romantic for a good reason, and it was not this episode, rather the climax should me truly OFF the charts.

They adapted 97, 98 and 99 in this episode.
97 has that frame with the training. They didnt add that in as a cameo, its part of the original chapter as well as the references to the Karaoke chapters. Its all part of the same small arc about Hayasaka.

Its fair to think they might skip stuff given S1 and S2, but that was when they basically had to reach certain milestones for points and there were less chapters with a flow. But in this case they are pretty much adapting it 1:1 for the flow and it isnt a challenge to reach the milestone for this season with the normal pacing.

A much more serious episode than the previous one but hey I'll take it

Talking about relationship issues but this time there seems to be an "affair" among the couple which is exaggerated if you ask me, Like breathing the same oxygen as the girl in the same room is cheating like no way

The 10 yen game is actually quite fun to watch though probably the best part in the episode.

It's getting better, but the repetitive animations really hurted. They could have tuned down the tempo, so as to make the cuts appear better, instead of recycling the animated punch lines just to fill in the time.

The story definitely carries the production value. 4.5/5.

Love how some of girls pretty much went almost full yandere, it’s exaggerated here but they are definitely people who actually thinks just be around someone of the opposite sex means they’re cheating. Also is a heart shaped necklace really considered that lame of a present?

Lmao Chika was training Miyuki again to beat Eminem. And that Maki was like a carbon copy of Kaguya when it comes to their character, which I thought.

Anw, this is what I missed on this series, the mind games between Miyuki and Kaguya to make the other party confess. That was a solid laugh all throughout.

10 yen coin game is something I'd imagine my friend would propose during a drink session. I loved it though.

Can't say I'm on board with Maki as a character yet, but she is a supporting character I think. Maybe she'll fit in with time.

The comedy is so funny, especially when playing blind dates. Fujiwara's performances always make me laugh, Ishigami and Iino are also consistent. That scene of Miyuki and Kaguya was really emotional, I won't forget that finger.

Poor Maki...

She had to help the person she likes get closer with his GF.

She's like a weird Tsundere that goes "I don't like him, but I do like him" LOL

(and she can kinda turn it on/ off at times, not sure if on purpose or just her nature...)

___ ___ ___

LOL @ the Ten-Yen game... Ishigami...

and then Iino... Ishigami's right, stay away from Group Dates... you're too easily tricked.

But then Shirogane found out everyone but Iino was trying to cheat the game...

This means Iino REALLY is the most innocent girl of the group.
