| did this episode air exclusively on funi? |
| A solid start to a Season. This made my depression go away again! Especially when they talk about the ABC's of love. One of my favorite Anime's comes back with a 5/5. I spotted something during the end credits though and I was curious. |
 |
| It's back. That Ai Hayasaki Mission Impossible thing is the highlight for me. |
| Kaguya-sama is back, and off to an okay start after a solid first season. The manga where it's at is pretty unbearable for me for a while now so my opinions have changed on the overall franchise since season 1 ended, but this episode wasn't too bad. The first half was pretty boring but I found the board game stuff to be pretty decent atleast. It was nice seeing Kaguya overreact in jealousy and sadness for a boardgame. I didn't like Chika in this episode though. She was more annoying than cute. Overall, I thought the comedy was very hit-miss here, but not necessarily the worst start overall. Not terrible so far, and the anime isn't close to where the manga is currently, so I should be able to find this season to be watchable even if not particularly good. |

| Nice start.. I laughed many times in this eps especially the board game part.. |
 |
| If you do just keep in mind the anime jumped around a bit and skipped some things, alot of it is up in the air about whether its actually skipped or if this season is covering. This thread covers the one's skipped so far though this episode adapted one of them https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1761357 Its up to you if you wanna read instead of watch, this anime has proven to be an excellent and capable adaptation even with some unfortunate cuts here and there. The only reason I do kind of reccomend it over is simply cause of how far behind the manga it is sadly, like this anime season might cover up to chapter 90 or so when we are already at the 180 range in the manga |

| Enjoyed the first ep, Happy to see that the comedy aspect and the animation is still the same, Opening is catchy aswell. This might top season 2 maybe, Who knows xD |

| That Hayasaka beginning was awesome!!! <3 Poor Maki ... So funny yet so sad =( The horror scenes were always great, scary Kaguya! Also Ice Kaguya appeared oO Overall great comeback! |
 |
| God, I missed this! Already laughed so much! Kept going back to laugh some more lol Gotta love this cast. |
 |
| So glad that this wasn't delayed by Corvid 19. Damm thats some impressive reflexes that Hayasaka had. That intro of her was pretty cool. Inducing sleep by subtlety switching out Shirogane's coffee huh crafty move indeed. Hayasaka's methods for keeping out intruders sure fun as they were varied. To think that Yuu had such a short fuse when exposed to gloaters though. Still the two sure managed to get the council good. The board game though sure was fun. Kaguya sure had quite the roller coaster ride in the game though thanks to the card conditions. Its rare indeed for someone to not celebrate their own birthday though. The unique descriptions of their birth dates sure was interesting. Overall an excellent ep that featured the perfect blend of comedy and over the top emotional moments. Hopefully Hayasaka will get more much roles this season. |

| Wow S2 starts with my all time fav girl Hayasaka <3 Chika is back for some cute stuff, and Shinomya is back with those blushes and great expression of her couldn't ask for a better start. |
Neko_Damashi said: The joke flew way over my head till someone told me, its a joke about the title changing, the unwanted middle child was a personification of the subtitle geniuses' war of love and brain being removed from the title. Apparently this was a gag in the manga and I just somehow never noticed.who is that middle school girl in the beginning?  |

| Finally! Waited for the second season for so long! I freaking loved this episode so much, I laughed so much that I started to tear up and my stomach was about to burst! And the op was the best I watched it more than once. I honestly can't wait for next week's episode! I already know that this season is going to be a really good one! |

| Best start possible, Ai Hayasaka is just a pleasant watch whenever she's on screen and that opening scene was just oef!! GOLD! Never play a board game made by Chika, god that was priceless!! Greatness once more, I am so glad this is back and not delayed! |
 |
| HELL YEAH they adapted one of my fave chapters, the Game of Life. It was as hilarious as I remembered it lol. I also loved the ABC skit obviously, Ishigami and Shirogane never fail to make me laugh. Can't wait for the continuation of the birthday arc, it's gonna be great <3 |
| Glad to see Kaguya is back and isn't delayed. Thought this was a pretty good start, albeit a little samey. |
| The episode itself was great, but man, Funimation's subs are awful. |
 |
| glad to see this back. i dont notice in the first place, chika has the same voice actor with shamiko and i just realize it because chika sounds different and more like shamiko sometimes. |

| First episode was worth the wait! xD Glad the team is back! ED was great too! |
| GOAT romcom is back let's goooo. Fantastic 1st ep |
 |
| we will remember this day as the day kaguya-sama saved anime |
| Now we just for Episode 3 ED #2 |
ShinyOppaiApr 11, 2020 2:12 PM
| Well it's back and is just as fun as last time. Hopefully we will get some more development between our mains this time. Chika best girl. |
| So happy to have it back. Brightened my day. Do animation and art feel more refined compared to the first season? Not like it wasn't good in the first but it feels like it's even better now. |
| It's great to have this show back once again! The comedy was just as great as always with my highlight of the episode going to the skit that involved the couple. |
| I missed this show, didn't realize how much |
 |
| It took me almost one hour to finish a 24 minutes long episode. I have stopped so many times, because I couldn't stop laughing 😂 This episode was amazing, really reminded me how much fun this anime is, and it's already the best one in the series IMO. I must rate it 9/10 already, even though it's only the first one. PS: holy shit that score 😱, that's way above first season. Can't wait for the overrated threads. |

Kamiyan3991 said: To be honest, this was pretty... boring? I dunno, I didn't like anything about it. This is leagues below S1 so far. 2/5 Yep, it adapted chapters just "okayish". The best one was the alpha one, But when a certain character gets introduced the season will be a lot better. |
| Once again Kaguya-sama is back to bring joy in our lives. Five minutes into the episode and Hayasaka is making her claim to be best girl. My favorite moments was the Nirvana segment and Chika's handmade game of life. The King of Love songs is back with another OP and its a banger. Hopefully this series won't get delayed because that would be devastating. |
 |
| Can we tell A1 to stop having THE BEST PACING IN ANIME EVER ! Everything flows so quickly and smoothly, all the timing are on point, you're not bored for a single micro-second, holy fuck it's perfect, the nostalgia of last year is hitting me back and I'm enjoying this more than anything. Haysaka shows her coolness and wingman abilites, Shirogane is even funnier, Kaguya is more endearing, Ishigami stills OURBOYYY and CHIKA IS THROWING UMUS AAAAAAAAHHHHH IT'S SO FUCKING CUTE ! 5/5 god bless it wasn't delayed give me another Chika Dance and I'll be send to heaven |
| I am so glad that this is back....hmm |
 |
| I usually don't rate 9/10 at the start of the season, but damn this was one of the best episodes from the entire series. What a great start! With one episode, Kaguya-sama 2 is already the best thing I've watched in 2020. Hopefully it doesn't get delayed in the middle of the season |

pilotinha_ said: I like her alot but I really doubt shes gonna actually shake up the series alot or make an impression on anime onlys so id not hype her up, if anything im kind of expecting some people to complain more so than her really be seen as something that improves the show.Kamiyan3991 said: To be honest, this was pretty... boring?

Erwin_Sasageyo said: Hopefully it doesn't get delayed in the middle of the season That thought scares me but I really feel like if they werent mostly if not completely done the season already they would have delayed ahead of time. Someone was saying they apparently wrapped up voices back in january and thats one of the last things you do so they probably are finished. |
