The episode is nice, but man, I don't like Jiji at all. That red-haired dumbass takes precious screentime when he starts being an annoying fuckwit with his garbage, shitty ass comedy, which I detest. That fucktard feels like Zenitsu, and I hate that blonde mother fucker.

Either kill Jiji off or have him chill the fuck out without his annoying comedy, because that mother fucker is really getting on my nerves, goddamn!

I can't believe this anime, man. It gets so intense during the action scenes but absolutely hilarious during the calm moments, haha. That car scene between Momo and Ken was so adorable and surprising, Momo turned out to be pretty bold! Is she starting to like Ken now? If so, I’m totally here for it!

Putting Momo and Ken aside, that post-credit scene was one of the funniest ever. With just a drop of soy sauce, Jin completely transformed into Evil Eye, flipping the whole table with everyone around it in the process. His pose while doing absolutely killed me, haha.

Jin aside, I have to say, Tomokazu Sugita is such a perfect pick for Taro. He’s hilarious in every role he plays, and that really enhances the comedic vibe of Taro’s character in the anime. That said, I also loved seeing Aira again! I’ve really missed her since season one!

Feels good to have Aira back on screen, this turned into a one whole happy family and I like it!

Okarun and Momo touching hands in the backseat, ecchi!

What tf is that thing with the Kito granny?! so it was an Alien all this time, is it only that one or the others could be to?

Lmao so now it's cold water : Evil Eye, hot water : Jiji... it's gonna be hard to handle this situation, well that's why Aira and Okarun moved to Momo's place, it's going to be crazy with all of them living together, and Momo is getting closer to Okarun eh

This episode 5 is basically just a transition from the Evil Eye arc and the issues in the mountain area. However, watching this episode feels very dense, lively, and enjoyable.
Seeing the failed attempts to extract the Evil Eye from Jiji's body was entertaining. The funny interaction between Aira and the shrimp-mantis alien was also great. The romantic scenes between Okarun and Momo were adorable as well.

The only downside here was the sudden appearance of 3D-rendered food during the group meals at the beginning and end of the episode.

They really baited us with that first sauce spill. Momo and Okarun have so many enimies now, the subterrains are also going to be after them. I wonder how they are going to deal with the cursed spirit due to them not having prepared the ritual yet.

It feels like it has been a long time since we last saw Aira, but her time with Chiquitita was god damn adorable that I'm glad that she's finally back. =)

As for Jiji, knowing that he's able to switch in and out of his evil eye mode from the temperature of water or other liquid that hits him does make his situation pretty risky. Sadly, when things looked to be under control, one drip of soy sauce was enough to awaken his mode and Seiko's house gets engulfed in an explosion. Trying to get him under control is going to be difficult.

On a brighter note, Momo and Okarun touching fingers together in the car ride back home was really sweet and wholesome. You can see the romantic feeling between them growing ever so slightly stronger, which is really nice to see.

Outside of the Evil Eye stuff, this episode was pretty boring. This may be partially because I don't care about Momo and Okarun. I did wish Jiji's moment with his parents was more emotional instead of it being wasted for comedy. Love Evil Eye and the fact he immediately came back at the end of the episode is crazy. Hopefully he actually puts in work this time instead of getting beat 1v1 by weaker characters

Don't remember there being a Ranma 1/2 OP reference in the manga(Ok there was) Except for the change triggered by hot and cold water, here it was easy to recognize because of the catchy melody of the OG Ranma OP.



And yeah, I still prefer Jiji possessed by Evil Eye xD Hilarious ending. Him fucking shit up is better than him making all these goofy faces 😌
My mind instantly went to Ranma when the hot/cold water changed Jiji, this is hilarious

This felt like a much needed episode after the previous four.


Yeah, and it was my favorite of season 2 by a wide difference. If showing live action food (for reasons unknown as a song from The Killers, i guess) and lampshading Aira's zero screentime until now was enough already... oh, well, the big one thing is just obvious. Barely had the time of thinking "JijiRanma" when his situation was explained, and what does he do one second after? He openly sings OP 1 from the original 1989 series. WOW. This honesly outdid Slam Dunk references from season 1, at least for my opinion.

Almost everything else was cool too, starting from Aira openly disliking Mantis but adoring playing with his son, to the sort-of hand holding scene, finally returning briefly at school and showing those two girls and their external reaction to the previous arc events ("which giant worm?"), and all that laughable act about not wanting to sleep under the same roof. Too bad the sauce went around, after a bait and switch i didn't fall for, and... that old creepy lady wasn't arrested like the rest of the bunch and showed a newer frightening form too.
(save your time and don't try to comfort when i rant on casual discussion or forum games, feel free to ignore me, i won't take it personally)

First there was the Urusei Yatsura The Final Chapter reference in Season 1 and now there's a pretty massive Ranma 1/2 reference with the hot and cold water thing. Yeah, I think the author is a Rumic fan. I lost it when Jiji started singing Don't Make Me Wild Like You lol. It's crazy that Ranma 1/2 Season 2 will air next season. Still doesn't feel real.

Ah so the Mantisian came back to earth because the cow was useless on their planet? I was wondering, do they even have grass there?

That tunnel scene tho. It was so wholesome to see Okarun and Momo act a little lovey-dovey for a while. Wonder when they'll become a couple.

The Kito family head was a subterrenean? Wth. They're making new enemies like it's no one's business.

Looks like Aira isn't that popular anymore. She's finally suffering the consequences of her own actions. Tho it's nice that she owned up to them. I think it's better if her only friends are Momo, Okarun, and Jiji. At least they're real friends.

That ending tho. Jiji isn't safe even from a fucking drop of soy sauce?! Don't think it was that intense even for Ranma and the others... They really need to find a way to deal with him like they did with Okarun's balls...
@0451 I hadn't noticed this before, but if you think about it, the style of humor and world building in both titles is quite similar. Especially the concept of characters looking for a way to get rid of a superpower/curse.

Today’s episode was really something—the ending made me laugh, but what caught my attention even more was how Momo was playing with Okarun’s hand! I felt something while watching it, I don’t even know why!

I’m still at work! Maybe I’ll post some frames tomorrow… I’m honestly tired and not in the right mindset to write detailed comments.

update:

Waya baba yaba ba! The most beautiful opening I’ve ever heard in my life… Of course, I watched it yesterday, but I was way too busy to write a comment! It’s honestly rare to see a show take inspiration from Ranma... Umm...

I can’t really hide how happy I am, can I?

Anyway, the episode may not be on the same level as Dandadan's explosive start, but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t excellent! So, see you next week with a new episode!

حلقة اليوم متميزة حقاً النهاية اضحكتني, لكن الذي شدني اكثر كيف مومو تلعب بيد اوكارون! شعرت بمشاعر وانا اشاهد لا اعلم لماذا!

لا زلت بالعمل! ساضع بعض فريمات ربما غداً... متعب الحقيقة ولا اشعر انني في وقت مناسب للتعليق بشكل مفصل.

تحديث:
ويا با با يا با با! اجمل مقدمة سمعتها بحياتي... طبعاً رأيتها امس ولكن كنت مشغول جداً على ان اكتب تعليق! هو حقاً من النادر رؤية عمل يقتبس من رانما... أمم ا..

لا استطيع إخفاء كم انا سعيد صح؟

على كلن الحلقة اقل جودة من انطلاقة الداندادان ولكن لا يعني انها ليست ممتازة! ولهذا نراكم الأسبوع المقبل مع حلقة جديدة.

LMFAO the hands scene in the car, and Granny having full view of the whole situation---gold. The jokes this episode with the initial exorcism and the UFO were also actually funny.

As much as I'm not vibing with this show, the animation and cinematography have just been so consistently impressive.

Gotta feel bad for Jiji, imagine living life always being on the edge and never coming in contact with cold water. That would be rough.

Seeing Momo tease Okarun with her hand was so good. Love seeing the geek and gyaru get closer.

As soon as I heard Jiji can transform using cold and hot water, my mind thought of Ranma.
Then bro started singing the opening of the original anime that I love so much!!!
I love this so much. How Dandadan references old anime, like Slam Dunk in the 1st season, and Ranma 1/2 now :D

Love to see Aira adore Chiquiquita so much as a baby
The handholding moment between Okarun and Momo is so cute

Grandma got a gang together to exorcise the Evil Eye. Accidentally, they find out hot water can pull Jiji's consciousness out of oblivion.Cold liquid brings Evil Eye back(I wonder what happens next time we get cold water in proximity). In the meantime, evil cultists get arrested for their crimes. Only their leader escapes deeper into the forest, peels her face off to reveal an underground dweller hiding underneath a layer of human skin. The legacy of Men in Black persists in pop culture to this day.
Good episode that balances between quirky, silly jokes and well-executed moments of intimacy. The hero team welcomes new members for a sleepover that won't go as well as planned. These kids can barely stay a day without getting in trouble.
