| Who else here cried when the episode started playing?;v; |
   |
| Thank You KyoAni for staying strong and coming back with a bang. Tohru vs Iruru was fucking epic, and the animation, wow, I didn't even remember Elma being capable of doing all that. All the dragons made an appeareance on the first episode. Wish Tohru would keep working on that maid cafe. The episode didn't lack it's fair share of lewd moments either with Tohru, Lucoa and now brand new Iruru, looking forward more of her for sure. Damn, was season 1 really this good? |
 |
| oh god! S2 here we GOOOOOOOOO!!!!! damn Tohru is so strong and she just held back because the needs to protect the town! oh hey new Char Iruru! and she thought Kobayashi is a dude! bwahahaha! i wonder what spell did she do onto Kobayashi!?!? 5/5. The fight was so intense! the 2D action and colors are so impressive!!! Thumbs-up KyoAni! |

| Yeah I mean thicc loli with tits the size of her head is a meme, but the show is still awesome. Looks fantastic - especially the fight sequence. Just prime SoL antics. Kobayashi has a dick now, so that will be a meme next episode. |
Ashhk said: Great to see it back, I couldn't wait, and the animation looks as great as better, maybe even better! The fight scene with Tooru was pretty good, and Iruru showed, I don't really like her, the boobs thing was cringe. Also I hope the plot isn't "kobayashi has now a dick xd" because it would be weird, but anyway I feel like it's gonna be a very enjoyable season I feel that's what happened, because of the title and the preview, and the fact that she screamed when she looked down.🤣 |
 |
| Tahaha, okay, so thats why the mini drag has this mmaking a baby episode. Ilulu turned Kobayashi into dude, noooh, youll pay for this Ilulu. You doing a boob job certainly made this more of yuri, yet you turned her into him, bring 'it' back,LOL. Kobayashi bribing Elma with sweets the highlight for me, certainly worked. LOL Elma-san, the sweet tooth drag,adorbs. Fafnir got banned, tahaha. This is so kawaii~ Even Quetzalcoatl with that body reaction while on call. Im so happy KyoAni and Kobayashi Dragon Maid's back. So glad to finally be able to watch this. Bliss~ |
it’s never too late for life ... to go horribly wrong. . . afff~  |
| Great 1st episode, it has a little bit of everything and this will easily be my number 1 summer seasonal. |
| Fafnir was about to raze the city with that level of anger lol. Anyways lol at the Kobayashi sex change bit. Idk how Tohru’s gonna take it though. |
 |
| KYOANI RETURNS! BEHOLD! Really happy to see this back and Iruru time! Can't wait for the trigger here. Lovely, absolutely lovely. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
Kobayashi is back, just caught up the s1 last day haha since I don't have time watching anime back then and just back this spring 2021, loved how this episode started with stunning animation and fights between Tohru and Ilulu, Elma's expression was still cute whenever she heard about sweets or whenever she was eating sweets haha can't wait for the next episode! |

| I loved this episode a lot, there were so many emotions with a beautiful opening and ending, top 3 of the season. 7/5 |
 |
| Even just watching the avant, I knew it was going to be a perfect episode And I literally cried watching the OP. I'm so happy that KyoAni is back on TV Really not much else that needs to be said. This will the anime of the season. |
| already 10x better than the first season. this episode somehow managed to feel more enjoyable then the entire first season. the visuals are just so clean and this op slaps. cant wait to watch more of the second season, its already off to a great start. |
 |
| This is for sure my favorite episode of the season, what an incredible beginning. I'm so glad that KyoAni is back <3 We will never forget the people who passed away, they are legends. |
 |
| KYOANI!!! THANK YOU!!! After a four years of waiting, Kobayashi-san is finally back! Tohru had a though day, working as a maid and fighting with Ilulu. Kobayashi seemed to change the new dragon's mind. Kanna is cute as always, and Lucoa didn't appear much, but her dance on the phone was hilarious. Elma was important, and gave a big support in the fight - I hope she appears more. Since season 1 didn't show much of her. OP is catchy and great! I gotta listen to it more. ED was funny and nicely sung by the seiyuus. |
 |
| Good episode, I liked every segment. Oppai loli is far too oppai though, and it sounds like she's imitating my waifus seiyuu, kugyuu. |
| I really like to see Lucoa dancing everytime little shota play the flute, like a snake!! hahaha! |
 |
| Also regarding the OP, the references to Lucky Star & Nichijou were probably done on purpose, as Lucky Star was directed by Takemoto, with Ishihara doing episode director/storyboard for bunch of episodes where as Nichijou was directed by Ishihara and Takemoto did episode director/storyboard Great way to pay homage |
| It was really good! The animation, music and dialogue was just as good as before, maybe even better! And I personally really loved the art style a lot because it just felt so much more colorful, and colorful in a good way to me, I also really liked the humor, the ending scene with Fafnir getting his account banned was super hilarious and funny to me. I also like how they don't just develop Ilulu instantly, and instead we'll get next episode to redeem her! I've read the manga, so I already know I'm gonna love her a whole lot! I found the Opening and Ending really cheerful and happy which works perfectly, I can't wait to see all my favorite characters and scenarios animated! The pacing wasn't an issue at all, and the episode kept my attention the entire way though and left me wanting more, which is a huge win! The episode didn't just end with a cliffhanger but a joke, which was really really nice! Hype for episode 2!! |

The highlight of the episode is definitely Kanna's smile. |

| DAMN IDK WHY BUT I MISSED EVERYONE ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE OP&ED I BELIEVE THIS SEASON WILL BE CUTE AND WHOLESOME AS HELL!! Also, Ilulu's boobs am i right |
 |
| Way to start the series! I can't describe how excited I am to be watching this blindly. I had the biggest grin when the OP played, this might be a contender for AOTS or maybe AOTY! Well, we only have one episode so far so let's see! Plus, I find Ilulu to be very cute :D wonder who was that boy next to her at the OP. |

| Goddamn i missed this series. Really good first episode! |
 |
| welcome kyoani , love the op and Ed so much been a while since ive seen such fun themes overall decent they still can blow us away after all these years with the visuals ,but some cringe stuff that i can only blame the source also have no clue where they are going with that ending pretty out of left field |
 |
| Well damn. Nobody told me there would be futa in here. Welcome back KyoAni! Also lol at Kobayashi saving the city with the power of profiteroles xD Okay start overall. I was never a fan of Dragon Maid's awkward sense of fanservice so at least I hope this sequel also features that sense of unity/family I remember loving so much during S1. |
| Man, that was an intense start!! Did Ilulu just change Kobayashi into a man?? lmao And come on! Unban my boy Fafnir! |
 |
| That new dragon is ugly. Tohru is very strong still. |
| the first episode was already amazing. as expected from the series. that was great deal form kobayashi and elma XD. I wonder what did Ilulu do to kobayashi though edit: still amazing that the quality of the series stays the same after the arson attack from the kyoani.. |

| What a start! I really missed this and clearly forgot how great the comedy is. This new dragon is just jealous also i find it weird that Elma couldn't simply go there and help her or do that at the beginning. I think if the situation was reversed, in tough times humans always set their differences aside. Can't wait for the next episode. P.S - Welcome back Kyoto Animation! We clearly missed you! |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| What a garbage show. I can't imagine liking this if it keeps up |
 |
| Feels good episode just like S1 and with more variety scenarios. Love the new dragon Ilulu is cute and fierce, a mischievous kiddo, whata manly gift.. And curious what did Faf-kun do to get his game account temp banned lol.. (likely chat threatening too many gamers) |
| Faf-kun gonna fuck up the world cause he got banned. lmao |
| I am very happily that KyoAni has returned. KyoAni is just what I needed in my life at this point, and Dragon's Maid being back for another season is brilliant. The 2nd half of this episode was certainly interesting. Really enjoyed this 1st episode, and am definitely expecting Dragon's Maid to continue to be great and entertaining. The ED is pretty nice btw, OP I'm less of a fan of. |
 |
| KOBAYASHI IS BACK!! It was great and funny chapter and the fight part was AMAZING!!, this is going to be really good. Ilulu is going to be an interesting character xd The opening and ending are very good. Pd: Lucoa's scene xD |
| Everything about this episode reminds me that its a Kyoani piece. The wonderful artwork, the fluid movement, the cuteness, the music, ahh I love Kyoani!! Pretty fun and wholesome episode. They also flexed their animation prowess during that fight, wouldn’t believe this is a Dragon Maid SoL if I only saw that. The ending was… let’s just say o.o |
| This isn't anywhere near as entertaining as I remember the first season being. Guess we'll see how the next episodes shape up. |
 |
| This episode is so crisp. Everything looks gorgeous. Kyoani proving they're still one of the top studios. |
| when you watch too many trash isekai animes you suddenly dont get used to animes with high frame rates. |
| F*CK! seriously, how can any other moe anime compete with this? One big fire and 3 pandemic waves later and Kyoani delivers it as if nothing happened. this could easily be the best anime of the season and one of the best things this year. |
