Chika is too powerful.

The rhyme part wasn't smooth as Paripi Koumei, but had interesting visuals.


The ED song was great, but what in the bloody hell they did to the girls. Feels like they just put a wig in some guys and rolled with it.

Best episode of s3 hands down I was unable to stop laughing everytime Chika said motherfxxker.
Maki Shijo is awesome as always and both part 1 and 2 were equally great.

MOTHERxxxER!!! This show is insane.

I can’t believe that we are witnessing such a goated anime during our lifetime. The rap arc was adapted better than I expected. Although personally Hayasaka’s words hit me way harder on the manga. But overall, that was a masterfully done episode.

When the ED played, it literally made my jaw drop for the enitre duration. A-1 Pictures definitely doing Gods’s work for Kaguya-sama.

If I had to compare the Kongming rap battle the other day with the one here, it's kinda a tie, tbh. Kongming's case felt more grounded and faithful to the overall themes of the series, while Kaguya-sama's case just had better overall visual direction and creativity.

That Maki segment we could've done without, though, even it was funny by itself.

On the other hand, Maki is quickly becoming pretty good.

Great episode once again but the way my friends who have read the manga were hyping it to me really felt like it was supposed to be the best episode ever of kaguya sama or something. Didn't meet those unrealistic expectations sadly, but still loved it. One of the better episodes of this season.


for us manga readers this has to best one of the best adaptations ever, the direction here is just insane. the chapters adapted, while great, are far from the best of the season

It's just a amazing how creative the producers of this show are. We are only at Episode 5, but yet we have 2 two different ED songs, 1 banger OP and several short songs/raps. Not even mentioning, the great video editting and voice acting. This season has surely surpassed itself

Wow. We got back to back rap battles between Ya Boy Kongming! and Kaguya-sama. Some how Shirogane manged to be decent on the mic and Chika wasn't half bad either. I also noticed the Bohemian Rhapsody reference when Kaguya started singing. Hayasaka stole the show again by telling Kaguya how she really feels and that she wants to start off with being with Shirogane even if it makes Kaguya a little uncomfortable.

Poor Maki continues to suffer as her best friend Nagisa is dating her crush. Both Shirogane and Ishigami continue to hear her out as the the two of them are having trouble with their first confessions. When your in love, time is of the essence when it comes to confessing, If you wait someone else might steal your potential lover.

The new ED was also great too.

I expected Chika Dance level of episode today.They did go full on animation but I guess that japanese rap would be liked more by japanese.To be honest,I didnt enjoy that rap much.I still remember when I had convinced myself to never watch romance anime but Chika Dance was all over the utube and when I saw that Dance only,I also started watching this show..Season 1 Episode 3 Chika Dance always remember😋

Even by the insanely high standards this adaptation normally sets, the way this episode adapted the rap chapter was nothing short of remarkable. They reached a new level there, that's for sure. And the unique ED to go along with it was fantastic too, particularly Ishigami's mad break-dancing skills.

And more Maki is always very, very welcome, and seeing her friendship with Ishigami and Shirogane develop is very nice. Another excellent episode.

YOOOOO THEY DID NOT HAVE TO GO THIS HARD !!!!! I'M SPEECHLESS

THE RAP WAS ADAPTED SO AMAZINGLY, I COULD'VE NEVER EVEN EXPECTED SUCH GREATNESS!

The amount of creativity and passion that has went into this season so far is incredible! I'm serious when I say this is shaping up to be one of the best anime adaptations of all time! A-1 has truly cemented their goat status with this.

THAT ED DUDE, THAT FUCKING ED !!!

Ed of the year, no question. In fact Kaguya-sama has now made both the top 2 contenders for ed of the year. Such awesome artistic choices in both, incredibly unique.

This is seriously the best adaptation I could've ever hoped for, and the fact that such effort was put into a rather minor part of the story is insane, just imagine the festival arc with this level of adaptation...
Holy shit man, holy shit.

Damn, this was one hell of a wild episode! It was very fitting how they ended the episode with the special ED theme there. Credits to the VAs and the animators for nailing it! Another one of those "you know it's going to be a banger if there's no Op" episode.

First half with the usual struggles of Shirogane and Fujiwara was amusing to watch. In particular, I couldn't help but snort when Shirogane requested to be taught right after explaining the ways of rapping first, how does that even work logically xD?

Creative representation for a lot of the rap sequences in the climax of the episode, you'd have to think they might've used up everything in the think tank but they just never fail to give.

Kaguya dropped some pretty good bars by herself in the end there. And Hayasaka finally got to articulate her desires. It's a win-win for all! Well done Shirogane and Fujiawara.

Herthaka, I wonder if Fujiwara will ever get out of the Shounen Ai in Shirogane x Herthaka loop by the way. For comedic purposes, I kind of wish it just keeps going on, lol.

Second half with Maki-san was more of the usual you'd expect from the show. She's really turning out to be going down that route slowly and slowly... But well, at least, she's got two friends in the Student Council to consult to while sipping "quality tea". Definitely want to see more of this side of story too. Oh, and yeah, I feel like us viewers have heard of Tsubasa before.

Episode was incredible. To be able to have character development through Rapping truly is amazing.

The second half had me laughing so hard as well.

Great episode.
