Poor Iino. She was pretty naive for thinking that this student council would be normal, but I can't blame her for that. Besides, seeing her reactions to the shenanigans of the council about girls' panties, seeing Miyuki and Kaguya "getting it on" and also seeing Chika getting her mouth taped up, made me crack up laughing. I wonder if she'll ever get used to this. XD

This is probably the funniest Kaguya-Sama episode to date. The jokes and the general timing of the comedic moments was almost perfect in my eyes.

The whole debate about underwear after Chika's jibes for Ishigami wearing briefs was hilarious and that got Kaguya desperately wanting to know want Miyuki wears underneath. The misunderstanding here was comedy gold.

Same goes for the hand massage, too. Miyuki might've felt a lot of pain, but it was pure bliss for Kaguya. XD

Then came along the shoujo manga segment. Kei cried to it, then Miyuki cried to it and Ishigami also did the same, too. Sadky, Kaguya has no interested in manga, so the guys tried their best to describe the story to her...

...until Chika spoiled the ending. She deserved to have her mouth taped up for that, but Miyuki and Ishigami became hypocrites by discussing the spoilers loudly between themselves, so they got their mouths taped up, too!

It worked, though, as the small shot before the credits showing both Kaguya and Hayasaka reading the manga and, no surprise, they were crying to it as well. XD

Thanks to that, the post-credit scene was given a shoujo manga style makeover and Kaguya, Miyuki and Ishigami looked fabulous. I only wish we got to see Chika and Iino in this shoujo style, too...

The first segment is even better than the manga. LOL that moment when presz yelling in student council " I like the black panties more ", new recruit Miko Ino just freaked out hearing that.
Also it's kinda nice that they made shoujo story as the side story. They're really careful with this anime adaption. Looking forward to next episode.

I've been waiting for the shoujo manga chapters to be adapted and they did not disappoint at all. Absolutely hilarious after the less amusing first half (even in the manga, the funniest part of those two skits was Iino's reaction to it). I feel like separating those two sections rather than having them occur back-to-back would have been a little better, but no complaints besides that.

Ahhhhhhhhh, this was a really good episode to laugh, now I have abdominal pains.
Since Iino is new to the Student Council, she doesn't know what they're always up to or how they're like... WELL NOW SHE DOES, LOL.
Also Shirogane, I see you're a man of culture as well! BLACK LACE PANTIES SAIKYOU!

The worst and most boring episode so far i did not even laugh once during the whole episode that underwear part was really stupid and unfunny
I am feeling the quality of this series is going down the jokes are becoming repetitive and each episode feels like one hour

Why is it that Chika asking Siri to look up the "meaning of man-whore", was so much more funny to me than it should have been!! The whole underwear segment was hilarious! The misunderstanding was real!

Oh the sweet innocent Kaguya, love how she can't say the word "sex" while Hayasaka just blurts it out like it's nothing, but also copying after Kaguya by using the "se" XD Hayasaka is just perfect for asking advice!!

The hand massage was also priceless, I love the switching between the pain and agony from Miyuki to the pleasure and ecstasy Kaguya was experiencing.

The Shoujo manga part was also pretty funny, but nowhere near the other 2 segments! Well, untill the post ending scenes....

I swear though, Miko will have a very wrong impression on the student council at this rate, the poor girl just walks in at the worst possible moments!

Kaguya did read that manga in the end and it had a pretty great effect on her, but god the narrator who spoke in this more "cute like" voice caught me fucking off-guard I almost choked in my drink! Nice 4th wall break though! Best segment of the episode!

One of the best episodes of the season thus far! I was laughing through almost the entirety of the episode. (And the shoujo manga after-credits scene...everything about that scene was amazing. The animation and voice acting was top notch, everything went above and beyond.)

Also, poor Iino, xd. First few days in the student council and she's already traumatized.

Dont worry, you can as the segment ended with "Shirogane (a boxer man) loses", unless you needed more details. He is a man of culture after all for also liking black laces^^

I'll admit that Season 2 has strayed a bit from Season 1. In which, the intellectuality and cleverness of both the President and Vice-President are nearly gone. They both used to be confident in their skills and persuasiveness. They used to be professionals at dishing out tactics. Hence why the first theme song was filled with weaponry and such. And now, both seem to be pretty incompetent.

NEVERTHELESS, that's just my observation up to this point...

The humor is ON. PAR.

This very well may have been the absolute best episode of the entire season. All four parts had me chuckling -- as opposed to past episodes which I may have enjoyed but didn't derive a chuckle from. I mean, the muscles in my face were forcing a grin.

The underwear story. The massage story. The manga story. And the post-credit story parodying the manga. They were all so genuinely genius. It's like, for the first time, anime producers in the industry are capable of implementing REAL comedy that actually resonates with the audience. And the crown goes to the people of Kaguya-sama Love is War.


* THAT WAS JUST A JOKE! I LIKE BLACK PANTIES!!!


* GET IT OVER WITH ALREADY!



* uhhAWWWWWWWWuh



* Fuggin Ishigami cementing his role as this anime's "best girl".


* And even that final shot they squeezed in there.

And while Ishigami has always been my favorite character, I feel like Shirogane is pushing his way up to the top with each and every season 2 episode. His humor has been really shining lately, and this episode takes the cake.

My God I wish I were a professional episode analyzer/critic, or perhaps someone who knows how to explain comedy. If I could only find the words to CONVEY the sheer impact of this episode. Somebody tell me what I can do...

It looks like I found someone who was able to put it into words better than I couldn't. Funny enough, I initially planned on calling this episode an 11/10. Their score's a bit more fitting, though. And it looks like most others woudl agree:

^ I've never seen such an overwhelmingly positive rating of an anime episode before.

It's funny how they do so many good jokes and still tell a story.

The whole box underwear thing is very relatable also, this episode and the last one are my favorites from this season, i actually did not liiked the first couple of episodes,because was too much "Kaguya being dumb in love" for me. But they finally recovered the pace with the Student Council arch

This was my favourite episode of the series so far - certainly the funniest one. The boxer briefs bit, the shoujo manga bit were both hilarious. Iino coming in at the wrong moment was a great running gag this episode. Also, both the guys looked so much cuter in the shoujo style (but I'm a big shoujo fan so perhaps that's why I liked it so much).

The only thing I didn't get is why they put the ED like two-thirds of the way through - it felt misplaced to me but maybe there was a reason for it?

The underwear part is my favourite part in this episode. I just want to see Shirogane's boxer :( Kaguya pulling his pants down was very funny but especially the face she put on later hahaha. She's amazing as always.

This is the first time that we saw Iino as part of the Student Council and I like her interactions and comedy scenes. Im sure that we will see different scenes with her in the next episode! The shoujo part was cute and funny at the same time, and I appreciate the post-credits scene animation.

Amazing as always 5/5
