A great first episode. My favorite segment was "Kaguya Doesn't Realize", others were pretty good too.

Poor Ishigami, I don't know how he survived the "Relaxation 3" accident.

Definitely missed those goofballs of the Student Council <3.

KAGUYA-SAMA IS BACK!

The last segment and Iino segment is my fav, its funny as heck lol i cant stop laughing. Ishigami smiles and laugh sarcastically like that is such a mood, man destroys Chika without mercy. And also, the narrator really work a lot more now. Great start, easily 5/5.

Kaguya kawawawawa~ Finally a new season!
Well, it is so~so, I guess... but enjoyable.
Iino blushing in that ED was fantastic!
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Great episode man, it started right where season 2 ended and all the memories of season 2 came rushing back, I was sucked into it right from the first scene.

NGL I was either smiling or laughing throughout the duration of the episode.

The animation quality is just as good if not better than previous seasons.

The read receipents part was hilarious af, Shirogane got so close to finding out that Kaguya was indeed staring at his chat window for 2 hours and that she actually likes him but Hayasaka came in and saved Kaguya lol.

The arm wrestling was pretty fun too especially the Kaguya and Shirogane match, the way just wanted to hold each other's hands xD.

Overall, banger of a start for LIW, I'm now having high hopes for this season. 5/5 episode, can't wait to watch next week's epsiode!

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

Holy shit, what a comeback! Can't believe that something can make me smile so much, and even after already reading it. A little bit cheesy sometimes, but also how it was handled into animation, it is just amazing!!!

It's hard to believe that it's been two years since Kaguya-Sama was airing, but I'm very happy to see the series back for season three. This first episode was a great reminder as to why this series is a fan-favourite. =)

I can easily relate to Miko here when she was listening to her music player while studying. I never fully connected my earphones to my iPod for a long time before I realised it by chance. I was lucky enough to never have anyone point it out to me, so I can only sympathise with her when everyone heard what she was listening to. Bless her... XD

Kaguya using a smartphone for the first time was pretty cute, although her lack of responding to the other members of the council due to her lack of understanding in how LINE works caused Hayasaka to panic. In the end, when Miyuki called her up and mentioned about it, Hayasaka had to jump in to save Kaguya's blushes with a convincing lie. Shame that Miko, Ishigami and Chika never got replies, though...

The arm wrestling segment was my favourite of the episode. Poor Miko took yet another L when Chika destroyed her and mocked Ishigami when he lost to Kaguya, but she got her just desserts when she cheated in her attempt to beat Miyuki. Kaguya and Miyuki's battle was intense, but the fact that Kaguya was sweating made her panic and thus, she won and became the "muscle princess". Onegai muscle, anyone? >v<

What a banger of a first episode to gets things going again. The new OP song was great, too, so I'll look forward to hearing it every episode from here on out.

Here it is, the best rom-com is back, and back with a banger opening episode. I almost forgot how relatable and funny this anime can get.

Ishigami is such a GOAT for helping out Miko but even then she messed up. That one hurt especially because that made me remember a similar tragic incident that happened to me when I was blasting some anime OP in the library. And well with the whole "instant-read receipt" joke, this is why you use discord. And as usual, Chika still resorts to cheating lol.

Be it the headphones chapter, the LINE chapter or even the arm wrestling one, this is comedy PEAK. I don't think I can wait for a whole week for the next episode. Well, Fridays just got better.






Maybe try sleeping?

I don't get the humor for this, so far it hasn't worked for all 3 seperate events. But this does upset me as to how 99% of the time I message people, as they are marked read, it does not get replies. So it's relatable. I wished there were people staring at the message box for 2 hours straight like Kaguya did xD

This was a really fun opening to this season. When I first started watching season one I wasn't that into this show, but its only gotten better with time. So, for one, I certainly don't feel like this show is being overhyped, its had steady progression. And two, if everyone is saying this will be the best season then I'm inclined to believe it.

I liked all the Ishigami moments, but it was killing me most when he overheard Iino's "music." One of the mantra's was along the lines of like, "No one has been hurt more than you." I was dying, lol.
