Digging the animation, but the story hasn't been terribly interesting yet. Still, it's only 2 episodes. Hopefully it isn't just a monster of the week type of deal.

I really enjoyed Ken and Momo's battle against that huge sumo wrestling monster. The colour palette being black and white for the most part was unique and visually pleasing and the CGI for the sumo monster was done pretty well.

For me, it was seeing how Ken and Momo worked together to take down the monster was the most enjoyable part of the episode. Their tactics might be rough on the edges, but their teamwork did work out in the end. Also, the look that Ken had when partially transformed was pretty cool, although his personality is speech style is vastly different. XD

Overall, this was another crazy, but fun episode. The cliffhanger ending does have me eagerly looking forward to the next episode just to see what craziness will happen next.

Entertaining, not sensational in my eyes. Im a little suprised it gets hyped up so much. But looking forward for more for sure.

Good job killing any sense of danger in the future.

She had a barrier around her, that’s why. They just don’t show it.

Just another fun, wild episode to watch after a busy week. This show's been the popcorn entertainment I've been wanting with a fun, wacky world, characters and action to boot. Not as crazy visually as the first episode but that's unsurprising. Still looks really good as a whole, especially in in its big moments. The monochrome colors in the action sequences for this episode was a different but welcoming look this time around.

This show is incredibly overhyped. It's the next JJK, not the next CSM. In other words, like JJK, it is a show that will be forgotten soon after its completion, a show that will not be remembered for achieving anything beyond itself. Just another shounen that tries to be edgy and innovative without actually innovating.

The only reason why it is worth watching is that it is slightly better than all of the other absolute garbage that is produced today. At least the authors tried to innovate, which is more than can be said for 99% of today's animations.

Enjoyed this episode so much, This really is as good as an adaptation can be. Good Sakuga paired with insane camera angles lol. Really makes the anime feel fresh from your run of the mill ones and goes well with the vibe of the manga aswell.

The kids were offended because I insulted their favorite show about bananas and pacifiers... hahaha
For the umpteenth time they are trying to offend me by opening my list. I can close it at any time and you will have nothing to say in fact :)

@Flowering In fact, the show would be much better if they cut out the idiotic retard jokes and fleshed out the characters better. I don't know what was in the manga. Maybe the show will be better in the future, but it is clearly overrated

Love it much more than the first one. Love the art direction and the way the transformation looks, especially with the contrasting grey. Love the use of music and the overall vibe. Truly a breath of fresh air.

Figured we’d see some places where corners were cut, in this one we had the black and white part and they didn’t animate the Flatwoods alien burning, but I can definitely forgive them for this since everything else just looks so awesome, I think the black and white part even worked pretty well for Ken’s transformation into a more controlled form, also no I’m not calling him Okarun lol. They’ve also delivered some tasteful fanservice which I can appreciate, it’s not really in your face either so folks that get turned off by that stuff won’t have as much of an issue.

And damn, Momo really took a beating there, didn’t realize having psychic powers means you can take punches from a massive sumo wrestler lol, but it was a badass moment and it allowed them to win the battle, a bit self destructive but I respect it. But Momo passing out at the end could be bad for Ken, now his curse is free to do as it pleases, or is it? Preview says otherwise with the hyped up gilf coming, should be fun.

Why is Ken such a crybaby? He's really annoying sometimes...I understand his personality but the author really exaggerated it.
Not to mention that he was basically useless in the fight, he supposedly has a lot of knowledge on aliens yet Momo carried the entire strategy.

This has been very entertaining so far. A plot that doesn't really take itself seriously with weird things like ghost and curses is kind of refreshing.
Sumo wrestler alien wants your banana lol..

Ayase and Okarun already jelled well and both have fun interactions. Momo is already way to adapt at handling her psychic power. Carrying and maintaining his curse is legit "Mendo".
Okarun transformation was lit. Although it didn't do the job. Momo saved the day after she took brutal beating but she used it well to beat that "thing".

Animation was high quality as with first episode. The entire fight with b/w looked great.

@Swyzen The retard jokes are shitty pastiche's of Denji's 'pervertedness'. It's like someone makes a break-through by embodying meaning through a technique, and instead of trying to find another way of embodying that meaning, or contributing to the conversation in a meaningful way, they instead copy the technique without fully understanding the underlying conversation.

CSM started publication in 2018. Dandadan in 2021. They legit just copied Fujimoto without fully understanding that the entire point of Denji being perverted is Fujimoto making fun of Shounen's fan-service. They're not actually adding anything of value to the shounen/manga genre as a whole, unlike Fujimoto, who has managed to do so in both of his mangas (tho to a lesser extent in Fire Punch).

@Flowering In fact, Denji is shown in Chainsaw Man as a real character who wants to touch tits and eat good food, not save the world. DanDaDan was made by a person from Fujimoto's team, but he did it in his own way. Maybe I'm too harsh towards this show, but what's the point of putting up with 4-5 episodes, because I haven't read the manga and there's a possibility that I'll just waste my time

Simplesmente que episódio bom, ele mostra muito mais do que o primeiro episódio que foi mais pra apresentar os personagens, lá nós vemos a transformação do protagonista e luta também, creio eu que os próximos eps só vão melhorar.

Another crazy wild episode. The director and Science Saru just keeps on delivering!

The black and white visual style gave this episode a neo-noir like look. Momo is awesome imo, not afraid of using her powers to help someone in need regardless of the monster she's facing. Their chemistry is entertaining. With the unpredictable nature of this episode, it felt like anything crazy could happen. VAs did a great job at capturing their emotions here.
@Stark700 it made me think of old japanese movies that were black&white and since it was a sumo fighter it fitted well

BANGER. This episode introduce me to Okarun. At first, I don't know whey there are some memes about Ken Takakura and Okarun meme. Now I do understand. The fight scene with the alien was very intriguing. The dynamic of Momo and Ken was showed very great and true to the manga.
