| Ahh yes, they finally adapted the darkness chapters, and to say the least, they went all out and beyond for this lmao. How I've missed the show and of course Daddy Daddy Do! It's been a year already damn. I really hope season 3 is this year, really really cannot wait for it. |
 |
| Okay, if we take off the ecchi scenes... Man, how I missed this show. It was so good to hear the characters voices after a long time. To hear the opening and ending was like I'm seeing Kaguya-sama for the first time again. Duuude. What a great feeling!!! Tears of pure joy flows. |
 |
| I had no problem with the ecchi scenes. Isn't Prez literally thirsting after Kaguya, and vice-versa, anyway? So him sexualizing her is fine by me. Not a day goes by that I don't pine for my significant other. And, unless I completely misunderstood the premise of this show -- Pretty sure the entire point of this series as been the progression of their relationship. Other than that, the rest of the OVA was pretty funny too. I enjoyed the Shokugeki-esque cooking antics. I'm looking forward to next season, and I'll probably read the manga either soon or definitely when it's completed. |

| Felt like the fanservice was so badly done, they shouldn't have cranked it up to 11 and actually make it entirely satire and do a proper fanservice jab rather than being actual fanservice. Like the one with Kaguya undressing and the door blocking the tiddies, that's good satire, but not the one after where they have lesbo rubbing session with Chika's tiddies flaunting back and forth. The boobs physics at the beginning also made me wonder if I was watching Senran Kagura or Kaguya-sama. And I'm saying this is overdone from an ecchi fan myself. The only thing worth talking about is the food war part, great comedy and the usual Kaguya antics, but otherwise this OVA was poorly done and the first two episodes really brought down the food war episode. 6/10 |
 |
| I don't mind the fanservivce and honestly twas nice but it just wasn't what the anime needed lolz but shit nice to beat off to it kek.. But yea last 5 minutes finally felt like the genuine article and I found myself finally feeling relieved for it to only end. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Seriously? This was absolutely amazing. Bet the people who say that "fanservice doesn't fit the show" don't even know there's an official Kaguya-sama doujinshi.

Holy crap, that's exactly what I thought too. |

| Didn't expect so much ecchi from this but I laughed my arse off for a fair bit so I'll give them credit for that. Shirogane's "Don't talk about milk when someone's drinking nipples" was gold. And Ishigami's struggles are so relatable xD. Second half with the cooking contest was overall a lot better and consistent with the previous two seasons, lol. Shirogane getting the ultimate pity treatment, that's gotta hurt. Meanwhile, more Chika flops lmao. "I was like what's this woman saying". And boy, Iino-chan sure can eat! |

No one did it, so I had to: |
 |
| Prob should've waited a bit more for better quality, but OVA overall was on an okay side. The fanservice segment was too much. And overall manga had much more comedy impact. 7/10 waiting and hope that s3 will be as amazing as 2 previous ones!!! @ChloeVonEinzbern didn't even see that, thank you the best joke for OVA |
 |
| This was more than expected, but no big deal because it's just an OVA. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Delicious fanservice. Dropping the soap in the drain and what followed took things too far. Oh dear, I must be getting old… The porn magazine segment was absolutely hilarious, though. As was the cook-off. Fujiwara's bluffs did not hold any water this time either. And Iino sure can eat… |
| That shot with Fujiwara was something else,lol. |
| Its an OVA. I don't care if it has too much fanservice or not. The last segment isn't even fanservice, just a regular gag scene lol. Stop complaining. |

| They really went far and beyond with adapting the first Darkness chapter, I love Kaguya-sama's production team xD The second Darkness chapter was just ok but they've stepped it up again for the Fried Rice chapter, Subject F's monologues are pure epikness |
AlexanderHD said: How doe sit feel to be so devoid of simple concept called fun.Absolute trash. This is such a brilliant franchise/series and yet these OVA segments completely defied everything that makes this show so great. They went full-on fanservice. They took a pure and wholesome show and just had to put the underage female MC's in a situation like that. The entire pool and shower scenes... made me wanna never touch this show again, with or without a season 3. I saw an angry 1/10 review for this OVA before watching and thought they were being overdramatic, but when I saw the subject matter, I was equally livid. Very unnecessary fanservice, zero pleasure derived; there are right ways and wrong ways to tackle it, and they failed miserably here. This show is golden for its humor and for its clever little skits and dialogues, but this was just full-fledged sexualizing the bodies of minors for lust's sake. There's absolutely no artistry here -- you simply cannot defend the segment in saying that the shower scene was to complement Ishigami's erotica/manga dilemma. Someone said "I was it just expecting it to be brainless fanservice but the ishigami commentary made some funny lol." ... but it WAS brainless fanservice. The Ishigami commentary was just to justify it -- to distract people from the fact that they just wanted to go borderline hentai for this OVA. I'm no feminist or SJW, I'm all for getting edgy, but it's just insulting that they think this kind of oversexualized content is going to earn them views, profits, and/or praise. They're underestimating the intellect of their audience. From the first few episodes of season 1 -- and even the golden moments of season 2 -- how could they have stooped so low? Have they learned nothing from their past success or are they just experimenting? Or have they earned so much profit that they don't need to care what people think and can use the money to shamelessly animate teenage girls dogging it in the shower... Japan has such an amazing culture, outside manga/anime and inside. But I will never understand how they shamelessly go about making stuff like this in NON-hentai's. There's a time and a place for hentai, probably -- and there's ways to pull off fanservice -- but this was an epic failure. And while the rating isn't all the bad for this OVA, you can see how it drastically it dropped from season 2's "8.69" score, almost 8.7, insanely high for MyAnimeList's standards -- and the drop down to a 7.4 for this OVA is a large decrease for MyAnimeList's standards. The showrunners achieved an AVERAGE of 8.7 rating with 12 full-length episodes. And yet, with a single stand-alone OVA, they couldn't hold a candle to their past work. They had to botch their perfect streak, their near stainless reputation, with -- per Shirogane's words -- deplorable content. Such a shame. Also japanese studio/showrunners/creators dont give a fuck about the "AVERAGE RATING" of some trash western fan site. MyAnimeList's standards... holy hell.... How come the people that try to sound smart here always end up posting the most idiotic shit? |

Also japanese studio/showrunners/creators dont give a fuck about the "AVERAGE RATING" of some trash western fan site. MyAnimeList's standards... holy hell.... How come the people that try to sound smart here always end up posting the most idiotic shit? Yeah, you're right, watching animated naked minors crawl all over each other in the shower for five minutes straight IS fun. What was I thinking? Silly me, so devoid of the concept of fun. 😐 Also, I don't recall stating that they cared about western fan sites? I brought up the MAL score system to illustrate that CLEARLY, something was wrong with this episode if a multitude of people gave it a low rating in contrast to the main seasons. Finally, I think there's a bit of a difference between "trying to sound smart" and "expressing an opinion". It's one thing to vehemently criticize a corporation or studio, but starting fights on the internet because you have a different opinion is a bit shallow, George. Nothing was wrong with the episode because they never considered the opinions of some elitist wannabes on some western site OMG naked/sexualized schoolgirls in anime. We definitely have never seen that before in highly praised anime like Monogatari or casual comedy like Prison School. You can have a different opinion but at least be consistent with no bias. |

We definitely have never seen that before in highly praised anime like Monogatari or casual comedy like Prison School. You can have a different opinion but at least be consistent with no bias. It's not even the sexualized schoolgirls... it's just that there's absolutely zero substance to it. There are right and wrong ways to execute fanservice. This anime series has such good writing, but none of it showed during the first two segments. It was uncharacteristically lacking. It's as if they just did it for the heck of it. Both Monogatari and Prison School are literally the best possible examples of ecchi themes done correctly. (Not to mention, Prison School IS an ecchi, and revolves around that type of humor.) But this OVA was just fumbling over soap with extra jiggling. And like I said, "I'm all for getting edgy." My ARGUMENT is just that this OVA is cheap and half-assed. It's as if they just did it for the heck of it. That's my opinion, though. You can disagree all you want -- that's totally fine, but calling my opinion "idiotic shit" is unwarranted, as is calling western critics "wannabe elitists". I also wasn't inconsistent or biased either, I don't think. (Also, again, I never said they SHOULD consider the opinions of people on a Western site. But using logic, it's probable that if there's a lower rating on MAL, it has less acclaim in Japan too. If an anime is successful in the West, it was probably successful in the East as well. If an anime wasn't successful in the West, it probably wasn't successful in the East either. And vice versa. And this is regardless of different cultures -- even if they do value fanservice more, I don't think it will make-or-break how similar/different the scores are between the east and west.) First of all the content of the ova was in the manga, long ago. That it was animated means that there was demand. Secondly, what decides if fanservice is done correctly? Hanekawa and Hitagi having lesbian bath time and Kaguya and Chika doing the same FOR NO FUCKING REASON have the same aim, have fanservice for the sake of it.There is no substance in showing either. Why is it half assed? Except the first part the rest is typical Kaguya. But even the first part is more than what a generic fanservice ova would be like. So what is half assed? The soap? No shit, that(and the censors and demand for ecchi) was the freaking point. Thirdly, your logic about what is good in the west being good in the east and vice-versa is so freaking broken. |
AlexanderHD said: I think fanservice is good if it's for characterization or if it deals with teenage sexuality like one person said. But like you acknowledged, the Kaguya scene was for the heck of it. Kaguya and Chika aren't romantically interested in each other, and there's no character development because Kaguya-sama revolves around loosely related standalone scenes. One other thing is that Monogatari and Prison School, and many other heavily ecchi shows, have an overarching story. This OVA, and much of the Kaguya series, are more standalone gag segments. Mostly. Kaguya has SOME overarching plot, but it's gradual. Kaguya's humor revolves around exaggerated "psychological warfare", dialogue, and SOME circumstantial humor where characters end up in embarrassing situations -- but there's always a joke behind it. Something to justify it. Kaguya, revered for its joke-telling, caved in and animated borderline porn without doing anything else. Manga or not -- if the scene IS from a manga, then the manga did it wrong too. That's what hentai -- porn -- is for. Yes Monogatarsi does use fanservice to convey anything it can from character relationship development to characterization and themes. But the Hitagi and Hanekawa scene specifically is just there for the fanservice. In the same scene they use silhouettes through the bath's glass door to show their skinship. That was perfect. But you also have the borderline porn which is no different(although better animated an detailed) from Kaguya. Nadeko trying to seduce Araragi makes sense, having her strip to look at the snakes makes sense, naked Shinobu in the bath etc etc. The bath scene of Neko Shiro wasnt like them. The problem is you and many others focus on just that scene and trash the whole ova. Was the scene over the top? Yes. Was there any real substance? No. Did it ruin anything? No, why would it? Is the overall story so bad that it can be destroyed by a small segment in ONE ova that is separated from the series? And there was a a joke behind it.Yes, again, I agree they went over the top but I dont see how that ruins an entire series(or at least its standing in the west). |
AlexanderHD said: Using international brands/IPs that are popular worldwide isnt the same.Yes Bleach, Naruto, OP , Demon Slayer and other super mainstream series are loved everywhere.But seriously, if you think you can, I'd LOVE to see an example of an anime that is praised in the east, but that is despised and panned in the west. Or vice versa. Because that's the point I'm trying to make. And just look at series that get second seasons, like Arifureta and I'm Standing on a Million Lives while stuff like Baccano, NGNL are stuck at 1 season(half cours). Fate /Stay Night 2006 is loved in Japan but is treated like trash in the west. And then there is this OVA that was made for JAPANESE fans, using manga content, sold along side the latest volume of the manga. Considering the above, yes the east wanted this and certainly they didnt start writing essays about why this is problematic for the series, the creators and the viewers.. |
AlexanderHD said: Overall, all I'm saying is that there IS a reason why this OVA alone has a low score. I think borderline porn or hentai itself is MADE to lack a purpose and just be for the sexualization -- but since Kaguya is a show full of purpose, it just feels a bit off for the scene in particular to be "for the heck of it". Which Monogatari does sometimes too... so now I guess I really am being inconsistent. My problem isnt the low score. I get that preople cant like it. Ffs, I enjoyed To Love-ru but had issues with later seasons(or ovas dont remember) for no real reason. And I assure you that I wasnt tired of fanservice. I just dont understand why the need to talk about it as if it is the end of the series as we know it. Yes I realize that it is my problem, but when I see long posts for something like this it just screws with me. |
| weird fan service shit and what's up with that yuri ish scene ? that was really cringy and very out of all characters . this was pretty heavy food to my stomach now i need some purefection medicine to get all that toxic out of my system this kind of shit was never needed in this anime nor anyone asked for lmao |
 |
| I finished school today and I finally got to watch this episode for the plot today was a good day |
 |
| I enjoyed the second half with the cook-off! Man, all that fried rice made me hungry for fried rice too... And those oysters... I gotta say, this OVA is not on par with the rest of the series in terms of quality. The second half was good, but it lacked some of the sophistication (especially the second season's) in the execution of the comedy that the second season excelled at. I had heard of the fanservice, but it was just okay for me. Didn't really feel too Kaguya-sama. It felt somewhat out of place with this series. I was expecting a more fun and high-quality OVA since the main series was so great. Nonetheless, it was enjoyable. 7/10. |
 |
| Never expected hardcore ecchi from Kaguya-sama! But damn it was fun to watch though ( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛) |
| (☞ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)☞ YouTube @ The Pirate Collector ԅ( ͒ ͒ )ᕤ |
| Christ, I was bracing myself like how they would show you in those airplane safety cards, after the narrator-san said this was the "Fanservice Chapter" but good God they really went all, felt like they were dancing on the fine line between an ecchi anime, and the good shit. But i'm not gonna complain, got some good laughs out of it as well. I haven't seen a shower scene quite so equally unhinged to mongatari's season 2 Hanekawa and Senjougahara shower sequence, until today. Genuinely thought that nothing could beat that scene, but i'll be damned they really did something here. Also the anime i least expected to top it ngl. Doing parkour from S tier fanservice, to pieces of forgotten historical literature, and finally to cooking, was not something I was expecting but i liked it. During the entire cooking segment, I was with Fujiwara in not knowing a clue about good cooking ingredients or how to cook in general, I just slap minute noodles with what ever I have in the fridge and some mystery spices I found at the back of my kitchen cuberts that have no labels, and bam its a 5* course meal in my eyes. Also, been a hot while since I last read or watched any Love is war related content, but having this as potentially my last memory of this series is something I'm not so sure how to feel about. |
 "yabe." |
| Finished in a few days ago. Need BD version some time!! Need to rewatch it again on BD! And for people bitching. This OVA wasn't even meant to be released outside. You know how you manage to watch this. This is for the Japanese and Manga audiences. Don't like it? Too bad, You are not the targeted audience. No way in hell Aniplex US has the balls to even release this elsewhere like other OAD/OAB shows. Glad A-1 Studios can have fun and have these kind of moments in addition to their serious works out there. |
| I remember in the manga there wasn't a lot of fan service but I guess they decided to input more details on the magazine that Ishigami was reading! As an OVA, I think it's okay if there is fan service. I really love the episode especially the cook-off. Actually, now that I think about it, the entire episode is probably a reference to Food Wars. I really miss this anime and can't wait for season 3. |

| Seriously? First part was Fairy Tail OVA tier. Second part was meh. The highest point to me was watching the OP again... I guess I'll have to stick only to the main series from now on. |
 |
| they assume completly it was a fanservice episode and it was very funny XD |
| LIKE A RECORD BABY RIGHT ROUND!!! |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| they did it. made a fanservice ep without completely seeming like a trash, not a big fan of fanservice so i cant say much but it was p funny fried rice segment was the funniest one tho, poor shirogane won because the rich kids pitied him |
| Just a funny 20+ minutes OVA, not much to say. Its not like the og series is a God tier comedy or anything. Pretty average. It also seems that many people missed the joke. |
