| Some actual strategy involved in this episode. Not overly complicated or tactical but it had its moments. This episode also did give me a character rivalry vibe with all the drama going around too. Ofc, Yuuki is caught in the middle of it. Himari is also no pushover and I believe she can only improve from here. An episode of this show also has its usual fan servicy moments so figure lol |
 |
| More censorship this week. Why the hell are they putting those weird white filters on the kisses. You can barely see it, whose idea was that, it's probably jus more censorship. Kinda weak episode, fight was also underwhelming. |

| Yachiho is kind of like a less beefed-up version of Dio. And she doesn't progress as rapidly either. At the start, Yachiho, marked with the Breaking Seal, utilizes the Golden Hour to return to the moments before the match begins. Recognizing Yachiho's use of her ability, Himari shifts her strategy to disrupt and deplete Yachiho's powers. Despite gradually cornering Yachiho by forcing her to waste her abilities, Himari and her team collapse due to Yachiho's cunning tactics. In the direst moment, Yuuki becomes the decoy, enabling Himari and her team to secure victory. Subsequently, a reward from Himari acknowledging Yuki begins. So, you know, Yachiho kinda has a thing for Himari, but she shows it in this teasing way, almost like an older sister with a tsundere vibe. Honestly, I'm leaning more towards liking Himari. She seems to appreciate Yuuki's hard work way more than Kyouka does. Yuuki's attitude in this episode was awesome—calling out Himari for being pathetic really got her fired up. And then, they pulled off a win against her big sis. Such a good episode. The rewards are entertaining, but I'm starting to wonder if they might become a bit stale or if the creators will run out of ideas. Still, it's a fun gag for now. Just the beginning of the tournament arc, and the fights just keep coming. |

| 12:31 Translation error, she didn't say "Rewind", she said "Stop" here. Naaaah, they can't just show me all that and then say she has "an unconventional way of expressing her love" lol. I should've expected this, she's just an extreme tsundere sister. The best reward so far. Himari is my favorite character now, love her tsun. And I find it funny how Kyoka never actually told anyone about Yuuki's rewards lol. And of course there are villains who are going to disturb the tournament, tournament arcs never go smoothly huh. Good episode. I just checked the manga, and there is a little thing that was cut that might be included next episode: |

Things are gonna get interesting from now on. |
| Powerful as it is Golden hour wouldn't be feasible when you have to use it repeatedly in a short span of time. This match though sure ended up putting a large target on Yuuki's back though as the other squads now know of his ability. One hell of a victory for Himari and Yuuki though. Sahara's ability to fall asleep at a moments notice really is amusing. Curious at what kind of power Sahara has but from the looks of it looks like we'll be getting gatecrashers some time soon. The match between Yachiho and Himari/Yuuki was certainly fun but if Yachiho had fought them as she fought the Shuuki then the match would have had a very different outcome. |

| WAIT. How have I only just peeped that Yamamoto Kohta is on this?? This is such a departure from the usual type of series he works on lmao. But I’ll take it. This is getting at least an 8 for that alone Probably the best episode overall for me . Enjoyed seeing Himari overcome her past and her insecurities to beat her older sister at her own game. Yuuki of course being the X factor. The animation still is kinda weak but it was passable. The highlight of course being Yuuki’s reward. It’s pretty funny that Himari sister ended up being a big tsundere who just wants her sister to grow. Probably better ways of going about it but oh well lol That kiss animation was fire. Seven arcs cook when it matters I guess lol. I like the emphasis on Himari being a lip biter too. “Boys are ok sometimes” resident guy hater Himari is finally coming around 😂 |

| The fight between the Azumi sisters, both Himari and Yachiho are not leaning their ways against each other, as the former hopes to wear the latter out with Yuuki on her Golden Hour power. But what they did not account for, is her other power: Prime Time, which has a much higher range and effectiveness, though it amplifies the time of her next usage. And when all is said and done, Himari clinches victory by using Yuuki as a distraction, and...she's not going back to the Azuma family as Yachiho would've hoped. Himari eventually gives him his reward as all slaves do, but censoring the kiss...just doesn't make the reward any sweeter, even though it captured Yuuki by surprise. The second fight between Shushu and Sahara is about to begin...as their enemies watch on. The enthusiasm for this anime is starting to wane on me...it's just quite average at this point. |

| Another amazing episode. It honestly felt like five minutes. |

| @KANLen09 In my opinion the anime is honestly below average. The fight hinestly sucked with the cgi and the reward was just weirdly censored with those stupid filter effects. Also the anime is airigin a day after the goated gushing over magical girls episodes. Which shows which anime studio gives it all for the anime and which studio just makes an awful adaption. |
| "Even villains have standards" -Accelerator- |
| Sure, "physically demanding" cost. As if the comically drawn out kiss scenes weren't a bigger reward for Himari than they were for Yuki lmao. Genuinely sweet to see the ice queen melt away tho. And ngl that was a decent "hard work VS talent" fight for a show like this. |
| good episode, but i feel the reward was lacking. He busted his ass and all he gets was some smooches? Man needs some booty penetration for that work |
  |
| Yeah the reward didn't seem as good compared to past ones and he even took a bullet for her. Granted it was more a sparring match and in an enclosed area where everyone gets healed up afterwards but still. With Shushu finding out what "physical demanding" means maybe she'll make things more interesting at least. |
| God damn, the lip biting looked good as hell. They went over and beyond with that one. Sexual tension through the roof. Himari stonks rising. Tsundere down, I repeat, tsundere down. Fight was decent, but I don't remember such a big pause in the middle of it. Probably just a pacing issue that arose from cliffhangering it there for the ad break. Pausing to get Ginna's recap was unnecessary too but it's not a big deal. The outcome was well worth it. Yachiho's siscon side is adorable. Hype for Sahara's fight next week! |
| WHY?! Why is the reward full of flashy lights?! Like, it was definitely hot but they had to ruin it. That aside, the episode was as enjoyable as always. I liked the fight, it was pretty intense and looked good enough. And of course, it felt so satisfying to see Yuuki and Himari beat Yachiho. Good sister my ass! Shushu knowing about the rewards should be interesting. What a show she witnessed! xD The start of the episode with the girls in their underwear and some close-ups was nice. And that dark-skinned girl at the end.... goddamn. |
| The battle was really close. Glad Himari came out on top. IMO Yachiho should've been humiliated even more. She deserves it. Hope she doesn't develop a sister complex now after being rejected lol. This was probably the most tame "reward" scene so far. Shushu has no idea how demanding it really is lol. Wonder how the rest of the matches will turn out. |
| that's the most detailed kiss scene i have seen in any anime like they showed her biting his lower lips as well cant get that kiss out of my mind im literally blushing well since himari won they should lose the next match or those mato demons will interfere it's a very likely possibility |
 |
| yeah good reward haha. Give me moreee. |

| Not a bad episode. Still weird with the lighting on a tame reward. However love seeing my Gridman couple on screen and they have great chemistry together. The Tsundere has been taken down!!  |
| well the last 3 episodes have been pretty damn spot on to the manga, so im still wondering why the fucked up the first 2 |
 |
| Shitty anime girl pretends to be the great Dio xD this episode wasn't that bad by the standards of this series |
Reply to phantomfandom
I thought reward this time should be piss drinking.
| @phantomfandom XD I thought about that too, but it would be too interesting for this series |
| The fight wasn’t all that complicated but it was a lot of fun, goes to show you don’t need to have all kinds of technical aspects for a fight to be a good time lol. Yachiho may not be as strong as The World with her time powers but I do like the aspect that it’s triggered by striking poses, I could see quite the wild poses as possibilities if they wanted to develop Yachiho more. And yeah Yachiho would have won if she didn’t boast while Himari was on the ground but they did at least address that, and they also brought up the fact Yuuki may have been holding back so Yachiho is kinda lucky there lol, but the fight not ending instantly was the better outcome imo. And Himari’s reward scene this time, while not ecchi, was tasty for sure, really liked the facial expressions in that scene. Only complaint I have is that they keep using that weird filter on the scenes that’s kinda distracting, not the worst thing ever but it would be better without it. And lastly it was funny how Yachiho took over the next time segment this episode lol, she’s winning me over fast. |
| Huh she really think she was DIO? lol The reward was pretty normal this time? come on, only a kiss? |
 |
| another week, another fumble. even that kiss animation was meh. |
 |
| Now were getting somewhere as Yuuki helped Himari beat her sister Yachiho and the reward that Yuuki got at the end was so hot that Shushu didn't bother to interrupt them. I guess this means that Yuuki has three masters/lovers including Shushu.Speaking of Shushu, her match is up next, but it looks like some bad guys are going to crash the party. This episode went very smoothly compared to the previous ones and it was actually engaging this time. There was quite a bit of CGI used in the Himari and Yachiho fight, but it can't be helped at this point. Hopefully things will pick up after this episode. |
 |
| Big fan of the reward scene, the lip biting was great. |
 |
| Welp, he gave it everything and at last she won. The reward wasn't as much as I had expected, somehow? |
 |
| For example, the drawing quality of anime is clearly higher than manga in the case of Frieren, but this show is vice versa. |
| The fight between the sisters was as good as any other from battle shounens, and the ecchi element makes it more fun. Looking forward the next battle. |

     |

 |

| The sibling fight between Himari and Yachiho continues. As we expected two against one, of course Himari easily wins. But fighting it isn't easy either. After Himari and Yuuki's collaboration they managed to win. Next are Shushu and Sahara. Who will be the winner? I can't wait. |
| dibayar dengan kiss yg hottt |
| My Candies : |
Aight hear me out for a minute |
| This lighting is starting to piss me off. It feels like I'm watching the censored version when it's not. This studio should never work on ecchi anime again. |
 |
| Not bad. Reward scene got me hard as usual. |
  NYANPASU  whiskey tango foxtrot |
| I don't have that white flash that everybody talking about for me it was just funny how the kissing process was animated Im out of words Im not even sure what was that. I actually think the fight can end in the first second if the Yuki gonna use all his power he can take the monsters so Yachiho not gonna be a big problem her power is very useful but not with someone like Yuuki |
| Pretty good episode, the kiss scene was quite well done, I don't know why there was so many white flares though... |
| Still do not care for this stupid family drama that was rush. I can't believe a sparring match is legit our next story arc. I hope the next episodes are better. |
| I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon. |
