LOL very funny, loved the teacher wanting to participate too. Loved her new friend's crazy reactions. This looks to be nonstop goofiness, can't wait.

The comedy for this episode outdid the previous one. It had me laughing more often, not only when we got the amusing references to other popular works like DBZ and Fruits Basket, but it seeing how Nico kept using her magic to solve things, which brought chaos instead, was indeed hilarious.

Still, Morihito's worries about not wanting the class to find out about her witch identity weren't needed after all as the whole class accept Nico with open arms. not only did she get two nice friends (One voiced by the awesome Rie Takahashi) who took her to a diner for a nice meal, but the whole class spent one lesson having fun flying around all thanks to Nico's magic. It was also here that they found out about Morihito's identity as an ogre and they welcomed that without any hesitation.

The ED song was pretty nice and matched up with the visuals, but the OP remains one of my favourites for this season. =)

That wasn't a reference to the anime but the actual game the anime took its name from. It's what the teacher suggested they play and why they complained it was childish. (in the Fruits Basket anime Tohru wasn't given a fruit because the other kids didn't like her and didn't want her to play, they gave her the non fruit "onigiri" so she would never be called) https://e.45mix.net/fruit-basket/

The whole student introduction scene was pure comedy gold for me.



The way her inner voice moderated the act of erasing something was so funny to me. And her delivery while obversing the whole act was priceless.

"Oh, he wrote something wrong, so cute.
There is it! The eraser attached to the mechaincal pencil.
Oh, but those are so hard to use, right?
Oh no, it came off. In a matter of seconds, too!
You have to be careful.
But there's still a little left on the pencil.
What ever will you do? It's like a half-eaten Caplico.
Oh geez, he looks so dejected!
I didn't want to watch an ogre look so sad over his eraser popping off like that."


And immedtiately after, hearing some fire references to other animes from the secret otaku teacher.


I enjoyed this so very much.

Apparently, Nico has a lot of friends in her class, even though she’s a witch. That’s cool!

Morihito will be okay as well, I guess. They have special powers and that’s something unique which makes a great difference between them and other classmates. The teacher being an otaku is cool😁

Nice episode. Loved all the references thrown in this episode.

I wanna pretend to be a dragon ball character too.

Also glad everyone's so accepting of things lol. Like who cares if you're an orge? we got a witch that can make everyone fly lol. Also glad it seems he's on good terms with the mohawk now bald guy.

Massive new character dump. Might as well get it over with I guess.
It's a comedy, so I'm not expecting shonen levels of animation, but the real lack of animation in this episode was concerning. All the stills and panning were so distracting.
Still looking forward to next week. Hope things improve dramatically.

I was thinking this anime was gonna be a serious battle shonen but now I'm guessing it will be a laidback gag anime.

I also have been concerned about the animation not moving a ton but it actually does have shonen action/fight sequences later on so maaaaybe they allocated time to those because the comedy/SoL doesn’t need it as much

@PaperCutAssassin I'm mostly worried this is going to be trapped in Low Budget Land, and the producers are going to hack up what might otherwise be a fun and enjoyable anime. Hasn't happened yet, but some signs are unmistakable. Well, one more try for the 3 eps test.

Fun episode, I want to be her classmates too, and is Niko trying to say the opposite so girl don't like Moi?. Nico is definition of dreamy girl, that scene of references of Gon and Dragonball was hilarious.

Kenta Shinohara's got a magic touch with character names and designs, all of them are puns and look the part too, lol! Once again our author's made a bunch of lovable idiots you can't help but root for, and I'm glad to see our main two idiots being accepted in the group, haha!x'D The ED theme is really cute btw and I love how some of the panels in it look like paintings or color spread pages! My favorite background character/classmate so far is Rin Fuwa, the girl that was just chilling and floating in the flying chapter, as well as the blonde girl in the same row as Moi in class. Her design is just super cute and fluffy imho!<3 X'39 Kara's reactions to Nico were perfect, lol, such dynamism! Takahashi Rie's been on a roll lately, and it shows in her performances!

@Sheol01 A lot of these will get by me, since I just started anime about 17 months ago.

"I can sense that he sees me as a woman."
Maybe something to do with his just a few seconds ago:
"... we're a guy and a girl."

Nico is so joyful starting high school. I am happy for her.

"Smells dangerous."
Very perspicacious of you.

Kana is great.

"Excuse me, class three is flying."
Yeah, what do you want me to do about it?

@LordCrueltyV Saiki K was another ( Not the correct title, but the main character) was another one. I mean the 100 Girlfriends has TONS of them too. Which is made by the same people, so no surprises here. LOL

What a fun episode, full of great references (Dragon Ball, HxH, Demon Slayer). The poor teacher had to control her inner otaku and keep her composure, but honestly, it didn't matter too much, as class 3 is so weird that no one blinked at the idea of Nico being a witch or Moi being an ogre. All the students were weirder than the others.

I like how Moi and Nico's voice actors goof around at the end of the episode.

I loved every second of it and laughed so much, so many little details and so many great jokes! And Niko… she's on a whole other level in this anime. It's honestly hard to describe her with words.

The naming sense....
Yuuki and Tsuyoshi bc their brave (yuuki) and strong (tsuyoi), Komeran Arashi bc he's an online hater (kome- as in comment, and arashi as in storm), and last EP we have the Momotaro trio + Yamamoto, etc.

PS: does that mean Kara-chan is either from Kansai or Okinawa (or the likes)? Since Minami Kara = from the south...

I'm a little worried that the show will push Nico's dumbness too far. But she's cute and mostly working as a character so far.

The supporting cast will be key here, and the two new girls look promising.

If anyone has seen the One Piece Fan Letter, the style will be familiar, because this opening is directed by Megumi Ishitani. From the start, great attention to detail is evident in the animation and the characters' gestures. The care is even evident in the storyboard, with numerous nods to iconic episodes of the series, Nico's spells, and even a recent episode of the manga where, apropos of the anime announcement, the characters enter the "anime/manga" world. Finally, Yoasobi's music is perfect for capturing all the good spirits that permeate each episode of this beautiful work.

There were so many references to other anime this episode its absolutely hilarious, Like they downright referenced demon slayer which completely threw me off guard. But putting aside the hilarious references this was a great episode. I wasn't keen on seeing them enter school but I mean it cant be helped.

That being said if their gonna handle their school life like this I don't mind at all.

This episode was way funnier than the first one. I cracked up multiple times. Here's hoping there are plenty more errant magical gags to come. The inevitable romance is whatever, but it was at least nice to see Nico already lying about Morihito to other girls after they stated they wanted a boyfriend. I suppose the hold-out on the romantic side of things will be Morihito in this one.
