| End it right here! This is the only episode of this unnecessary spin-off that matters. Man, I had so much hope for this spin-off after watching KonoSuba Movie, but only Komekko moments were somewhat fun here. |
| I hate everyone equally |
| Something I've really come to love about Megumin, and really all of the Crimson Demons, is that they could make a legitimate run at world domination if they weren't so chuuni. Most, if not all of them, are OP as hell, and a lot of them clearly possess above average intelligence that's only inhibited by the sheer desire to be chuuni. |
 |
| It's good. Wonder if we'll get a Darkness piece down the line, although I'd much more prefer a continuation of the OG. I'll take what we can get. |
| She sait it! She said the thing!!! |
 |
| Ahah we finally got Megumin's infamous EXPLOSION! xD And now they have their diploma and leaving school... might be more interesting from this point |
 |
| Finally Megumin with her first EXPLOSION! |
| Well that was a fun episode, finally the explosion we were all waiting for |
  Grant me one hour on love's most sacred shores To clasp the bosom that my soul adores, Lie heart to heart and merge my soul with yours |
| Was definitely anticipating the big reveal of Megumin casting her first Explosion to be well done, but man the build up and visuals still shook me. Personally, Megumin's Explosion magic has to have one the most visually pleasing casting effects out there, its got some crazy visuals with all the colours and effects, and the actual explosion itself sounds like something straight out of FireForce. Idk why i found it funny that Soketto's fortune telling globe censored, what i'm assuming, the events of Konosuba s1+2 like they didn't want to spoil anything even as a gag. |
 "yabe." |
| Megumin's first experience with explosion sheeesh. The nod to the future with the crystal ball too, though it was blurred, it definitely showed the sus moments lmao. |
 Never ending plan to watch list... |
| Pure kino. Megumin-haters will never recover from this |
| "Chimp in state of nature never jerks off, but in captivity he does, wat does this mean? In state of nature he’s too busy, to put plainly. He is concerned with mastering space: solving problem of life in and under trees, mastering what tools he can, mastering social relations in the jockeying for power and status. Deprived of this drive to development and self-increase he devolves to pointless masturbation, in captivity, where he senses he is in owned space and therefore the futility of all his efforts and all his actions." |
| Can't wait for megumin adventure. I hope we'll meet kazuma😂 |
 |
| Komeko might be wild and wreckless. However, you can't help but adore her. She's so sweet and funny. I love how she came back to Yunyun after running away with Megumin. Megumin also got a glow up. She used up her magic skill points on her beloved explosion spell. She didn't disappoint. The iconic explosion came to life and blew everyone away. Let's gooooo!!!! Blow away all the demons like they're fourth of july fireworks! |
 |
| Quite interesting that Komekko had been working on unsealing the Dark God since episode 1 off screen when Megu was first introduced. And Yunyun decide to use all her points to learn magic so she can protect Megu and Komekko, awwww. Also, while Megu is cray-cray at times, she seem to possess a talent for deduction huh, should have become a detective instead of a one-magic user, lol. Well, I guess the Farfetches didn't die in vain, they gave Megu just enough point to get her trademark skill. EXPLOSION Also... huh... I wonder who this "goddess of vengeance" is... LOL . HAHAHA, Soketto's fortune telling... "you'll meet capable... capable... oops, *covers up crystal ball*" LOOOOOOL, they'll be anything but capable, LOOOOOOL But Hey, at least they'll make perfect companions since everyone in that group has literally similar traits as Megu... and that trait is...... CRAZY. . |

| Nothing Written Here But Us Anime Bunnies *boing boing boing* |
| Bruh. Explosion/10 |
| What a way to graduate, learning magic, then they just trash you out in the world without any guidance |
 |
| Hahahahahahaha... so, this was the iconic moment in KonoSuba when Yunyun learned intermediary magic to save Komekko? Should've known they would make a joke even out of it, in KonoSuba universe. To be honest, that's a massive plot hole. Megumin was already eligible to learn the Explosion Magic, by the time she was trembling there and left an opening for Yunyun to intervene. Yunyun just squandered her potential for nothing, due to this plot hole. Megumin has already killed that duxcallion before finding out her Komekko was missing in the first place. Not gonna lie, unless they find a way to square this circle somehow, I'll feel bad for Yunyun. But by the time we were introduced to Yunyun in Konosuba, she's already learned advanced magic out of the academy. So, I guess it isn't that bad, for her. They both graduated, after all. So the world is really their oyster. Maybe it's good for Yunyun in the long-run she graduated prematurely. |
| This!!! This is it!!! This was the episode I'd been wanting to see!! Her first explosion!!! Also, I liked that reference to her future friends, lol. |
| that moment when you kill a duck and unlock the most destructive spell in existence |
| yayyyy explosion! |
| SHE DID THE THING! EXPLOSIOOOON!! Also interesting to learn Chomusuke is related to the sealed Dark God (or even be it) with how it resembles those flying chickens and all. Makes me curious who exactly the lady was that showed Megumin explosion magic for the first time. |
 |
| The flashback teases in the movie, it's here. Wished it got portrayed a bit better though, atleast the explosions were nice. |
| Komekko is a bit of a bad bitch… she’s got a bright future ahead of her 😆 Omfg I can’t believe Chomusuke is actually a dark goddess… how fitting for Megumin’s familiar! |
 |
| This episode really turned the whole show around for me to be honest. I was not loving the first 4 episodes, seemed kinda meh. This episode though truly packed a punch, and I was happy that it kept the moment for the rest of the show. It would have been a 5 for me if this didn't pick up speed and continue it, but it deff brought it up to a 7 rating for me. Great stuff, to bad it was a slow start, but overall an enjoyable experience. |
 |
| Komekko really messed up things in this one... Well at least Megumin and Yunyun were able to deal with the monsters. |
 |
| Komekko's interactions with the Demon were so cute and wholesome. Chicken and a chick as an offering (instantly thought of Oyakodon). Yunyun learned intermediary magic to save Komekko! The foreshadowing during the fortune telling. SHE SAID THE THING |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| It was OK. The story in this episode didn't make sense. It's really a stretch to accept the presented narrative as is, things don't check out. There's also still no orientation and direction whatsoever. This episode could have been the beginning, episode 1, or the final, episode 12, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. But it's episode 5, why? No reason at all. Series composition remains sloppy and random. No structure was spotted during the creation of this anime. |
| Megumin flips back and forth from being a real one, to being an a$$hole to Yunyun. I just can't help but feel bad for poor Yunyun. |
      |
| omg she said the thing |
| Megumin's first Explosion! Awesome. |
| amazing episode felt like a season opener and finale all at once |
| Komekko is so cute, especially rolling away after Yunyun used her magic for the first time lol Yunyun really is the only sane person in the Crimson Demon village But I really feel bad for Yunyun, graduating only with intermediate magic for the sake of saving Komekko ;-; I've always felt really sorry and sad for Yunyun, she's gone through nothing but hardship but she's such a sweet girl |
 |
| Yunyun is too good for her own good . Half of the stuff went tangent but hey it's KonoSuba who cares !! The animations were bombastic(pun intended) and that's what matters |
| So that was Megumin's first explosion, didn't think we'd get it in episode 5 already. Komekko is a pretty good little sister, not annoying at all. |
| Best episode so far! This show's underrated, damn, I was tearing up a bit at the explosion. More of second best girl Kommeko is great too! |
 |
| Poor YunYun.. but she could kill a ducky and get advanced magic ;/ I wonder how in the world the adults or teachers didn't know that Megumin learned explosion magic? just look at her card when she graduate your school... and it is kinda sad I hoped for more interactions with other girls... |

| (づ￣ ³￣)づ ちゅっ ちゅっ キス (´｡✪ω✪｡｀) 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 ;) |
| This episode some serious some comedy. But the animation is really nice. Finally Yunyun and Megumin graduate. |
