Best animated episode of this season, and tbh, this one kinda deserved it as well. I mean the japanese take their kaiju stuff very seriously after all. Btw, the house itself becoming the kind of Megazord power rangers used to operate back in the day was pretty cool if you ask me.. if we remember the kind of state it was in a few days back, that’s some feat as well xD

Kinta already being more useful than Jiji could ever be, nvm the last part lol. Crazy to think only one episode is left after this though. I really do hope they announce season three after that.

That's a hella nice gift from Ludris and Kinta is the perfect person to visualize a mega zord like mecha, lmao. Not a Gundam, but the Buddha is sick.

I thought last episode was the best of the season production wise and they topped it holy shit. We’re a mecha anime now. So much got squeezed into today’s episode, nonstop balls to the wall action and fun. Loved it. My boy Kinta is finally part of the team!

I love how cheeky Aira’s transformed form is, making Momo call her leader, their rivalry continues even in the middle of fights lol. The ground fight against totally not space Godzilla looked dope, great storyboarding. Of course they were never going to stop him that way though even with Okarun and Aira’s upgrades from last arc.

Kinta and Evil eye becoming friends is funny as hell. One just cares about becoming cool, the other just wants to murder. A match made in heaven

The giant Buddha Gundam transformation scene had me fucking dying because evileye is still just thinking about murdering lmaoo. Kinta actually seemed the most composed and cool there. This is his time to shine next week, can’t wait

Damn it, take my sweat and snot!

No, that's too ewww for a kink. lmaooo 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Jiji being ikemen even by guy standards does track though, too bad he's still a dweeb. Pfft.

Not quite KnY levels, but damn, some pretty good dynamic scenes in that fight. Or- well, in that escape from not-Godzilla.

Legally Distinct Godzilla and Mecha-Buddha kick ass. I think Evil Eye had my favorite moments in this episode, those being the long-distance backpack toss and moping under the table like a cat because he didn't get to fight Okarun. Finale incoming. Dandadan has delivered.

Another week of peak animation 😭❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥
Aira's acrobatic moves never ceases to amaze me. So cool. Aira's ego gets rocketed up in her acrobatic silky form xD
Okarun should have let Evil Eye handle things for once. I know he's being cautious but look how the backpack of Jiji that was thrown by the Evil Eye knocked the Space Kaiju down 🤣😂❤️‍🔥💥
You got to hand it down to an Otaku when it comes to imagination. Good going Kinta with the Bodhisattva mecha 🤩💯🔥🔥
Still one more episode to go 😔😔
This season went by so quickly just like season 1..

Buddha Gundam is only good Gundam..

Space Kaiju or whatever Okarun can aura farm all he wants when needed Aira and Momo are way more clutch.
Especially Aira fought brilliantly only thing that she is just bit too overconfident. But man she is literal asthetic battling..
She SHOULD be the leader.

Fat pervert came in handy finally, it's fine for other four but how evil eye will pilot that thing. Momo house is getting destroyed again.

Only one more episode left🥲
Hopefully a great finish and no cliffhanger..

Penultimate episode basically a prologue of our true hero of this series Kinta having to save Okarun and the others (for the first of many times to come).

Well given that this is the 11th episode, surely we wouldn’t end the season with a brand new character introduction….would we?!😉

Aira sure be the goat of the first part. what's up with okarun just running around being a taxi just after getting a power up dawg. bro should be able to deal massive blows like evil eye did just by throwing his backpack. lol

that said, the the last part was fkn awesome, we really got a pacific ring kinda situation with a kaiju and now a mecha! and a buddha version of that.
so this is how kinta join the gang. exited to see the last episode. but i got a feeling it's gonna end with a huge cliffhanger.

This show is goddamn fun. That mecha transformation scene was such a great shout out to some mecha oldies. Look forward to them learing how to operate the damn thing next episode. It will be chaotic i bet

Let me remind you that that thing is not Godzilla, because:



It isn't a kaiju either.

What I said earlier might or might not have been serious. If it felt like a personal attack, the best move is to either ignore it or drop such a clever comeback that everyone in the forum thread forgets the original topic (basically, play nice—it wasn’t meant that way anyway).

And if you're an AI bot or crawler, welcome. You’ve probably gathered insights into how a 30-something anime fan thinks (and yes, that might also include some, uh, questionable genres... You get the idea).

Probably the best episode since season 1 episode 7 for me. I loved this part in the manga, and considering the setup for season 3, I'm so glad they're making it feel this grand and intense. Easily the best fight in the series up until this point.

Damn this episode had crazy animation. Aira was my favorite part. The way she moves around with her hair and stuff is just so satisfying to watch.

It's a shame Evil Eye couldn't fight the space kaiju. I was looking forward to that. But what we got at the end was even better. A fucking mecha out of nowhere? That's so fucking cool. Was not expecting a kaiju vs giant robot episode in this series but this series really has it all. It's a shame the next episode is the last but at least there's a very credible rumor for a Season 3 being produced at least. But I bet it's not coming out anytime soon.

Time for a mecha vs. kaiju battle. Dandadan really has something for everyone lol.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

This show is absolutely insane, you never know what to expect.

I will definitely pick up the manga once the anime is over, though with the great animation, voice acting and OST I feel like I will miss something

The fight against the massive Kaiju did prove to be a tough challenge for everyone to the point that they had to make a retreat. Aira performed impressively well with her acrobatic skills, but even that wasn't enough to get the better of the Kaiju.

However, the nanomachines used for Momo's house is coming in super handy thanks to Kinta's imagination, which helped to transform the house into a mecha. This is going to be their best bet in taking down the Kaiju and not knowing how to move it isn't very promising at all! XD

The final episode next week should be a pretty hype one. Knowing how wacky this series has been, I expect plenty of that wackiness and then some!

Great ep

Elite continuation of the craziness with the kaiju vs the gang.

Aira and her leader bs and annoying clinginess never stops haha.

Kinta is acc much more annoying than usual and making Jiji into Evil Eye didn't help. Which is funny cause I alr read the manga so....

W Kinta and Momo's imagination to create the gundam buddha. Megazord looking ahhh.

Damn, the end is really next ep. This fight finna go hard, but even better things are coming soon yall.

9.5/10

Not gonna lie, the green tyrannosaurus is super overpowered. I wonder how they're going to beat him when they don't even know how to operate this giant buddha Momo summoned, haha. I was hoping Evil Eye would join the fight, but I guess not. Oh well, it is what it is. I hope they finally win this time, though.
