| Tbh, a spy should have a lot of variety of skills so stealing isn't that much of a surprise. Luckily, this episode gave them the chance to use such a skill as a mission. Siblyia also stepped it up this episode as a spotllight. Feels like this anime is taking every advantage of the spy themes. With every episode, it looks like they're learning something. |

| Uhh, okay ... i guess we just accepted the fact that this whole thing is now about trying to outsmart/kill our spy teacher, and each episode from now on will be one or more attempts of that, with some pillow girl bonding talk during the night. And, its really funny, you see ... some random ten years or so old girl is better spy than half of the main cast, lmao. |
 |
| From what I've watched Lily until now, she is literally Aqua. Nice job Ten-chan. I hope this episode will be the last filler-esque episode and we'll be back on track with the actual content from the second volume in the next episode. |
何それ？意味分かんない  |
| Wait, why are we still in flashback territory? Lamplight still at their pre-Impossible Mission phase to still throw their teacher Klaus off, one girl at a time, and this time it's Sybllia's turn to stalk him, with Lily just casually being there as an unnecessary safeguard. Saving him from a potential young pickpocket, and Klaus's assessment of Sybllia is the same as per the rest, only realizing that this young pickpocket Finé has some hidden injuries worth inspecting. So then, it's teacher and student trying to understand what's going on, and sure enough, Finé belongs to a group of young thieves forced to steal, of which they are used from their orphaned origins to help them give a good life. Sybllia, enraged by the scumbag's approach to parenting the orphans, and having been there in her heyday, the Pandemonium chooses to become a spy to save the innocent from this dirty world. Klaus is there for emotional support, and this puts Sybllia on the forefront of her own ambition to help kids all around and give them a good and purposeful life. The problem is Lily, sneaking a chilli bomb boxed lunch, Sybllia opened it and got what should have been Klaus's just desserts. Too bad, Sybllia got inflicted on that karma to exact revenge on Lily. I think I understand if by having these filler-esque episodes to show character development, then through this episode, it succeeded. |
 |
| This adaptation is so poor Assassination classroom knock-off that even Mal rating is looking right in front of it. |
 |
| Decent filler episode it was nice to get some info about Sybllia's past though |
| Like, if you were going to do all these "character development" stories, maybe you should have left the Impossible Mission to the very end of the cour... just saying. Anyways, today's episode is all about Sybllia, and her attempt at trying to stalk and outsmart Klaus, to no avail of course. Then, they get roped into this dumb plot about a group of thieving kids, controlled by a guy that takes in orphans and forces them to commit crimes. The chili bomb thing was just your "girl bonding" thing of the episode. The show isn't necessarily boring or anything, but it's so poorly adapted and basically a budget Assassination Classroom. At least that one had a very likeable teacher in it, this show does not. |
| That guy was a fucking piece of trash, anyone using a child is the lowest of the low. Sybilla was cute and cool in this episode. |
 |
| It’s not filler as it adapts the SS volume 1 (one of the stories from it anyway. |
| Another flashback episode? Well, we have already reconciled, the fact that this show is disappointment, but they are staying into Promised Neverland S2 territory. |
 |
| i LOVE the girls as usual, but its just kinda generic and run of the mill... |
   |
| It was cute and amusing to see Sybilla embarrassed after Lily told her that they listened in on her conversation with Klaus when she offered to share the lunch and then watching Klaus move away for the inevitable chili bomb. While I did enjoy this episode focused on Sybilla I do wonder how many more pre-impossible mission episodes we'll get (yes I also agree the impossible mission should've been at the end of this arc). |
| Sibylla took the spotlight for this episode for saving those children from that scumbag, I'm glad he is gonna spend his time in prison. Also those chili powder tricks were awesome. |
  |
| More character focus this time around Sybilla. Tragic backstories are a little cliche. Sybilla's trick with the 'bomb' was funny and the way it ended was unexpected haha. But yea her tailing methods, all the girls' tailing methods are lousy. Following someone a few steps behind in a busy city isn't going work, especially on a pro. He stops by the same places and walks the same streets every day, by now they should not even need to follow him if they were any good as spies. Everything Klaus did to track the girl (Fine) to her hideout was pretty standard, but he let Sybilla keep herself open- and didn't warn her about the juice so he was basically using her in his scheme. The girls have yet to turn the tables on this guy. Edit: this show is quite clever though because the one wildcard is still Lily, and it's being kept subtle. She's the one who came closest to taking Klaus down in 1st episode, and has since deviated from the rest of the team in her methods- including this one. If any of them, or the whole team ever outsmart Klaus- my money is on Lily being their ace. |

| This time it's an episode focused on Sibylla. Funny how Lily got back at Sibylla at the end there. |
 |
| Was really hoping they'd... you know? MIX IT UP And maybe the orphan girl was gonna pull some real shit and end up being the one Sybilla has to fight... like maybe an enemy spy or something but no... Let's be generic and safe and have her be the victim of some typical dumbass who we can go quickly shit on and not to mention the generic I was abused backstory Guh.... why... As much of a waifu simp as I am, I don't necessarily like them being the only reason I'm still watching a show, at least when it comes to non ecchi Where are the enemy waifus?? |

EgatammaN said: Yes this is pretty much it. Typical anime audience can only handle shounen or a direct linear plot with zero subtext- because subtext requires actual engagement, actual THINKING and this lot watch most of their anime in dubs at 4x. So something like this with an old, uncool formula is going to be way too confusing. Also because it has classroom in the title and the training involves beating the teacher- that means it must be EXACTLY THE SAME THING as that one with the smiley face guy so why botherBut on the other hand, I think I understand why not many people like this kind of anime since I can definitely assure you that this is an old formula they were using, newer anime watchers definitely aren't familiar with this type of stuff because modern anime tends to rush things blazingly fast and only focuses on the plot (Once again, not a bad thing, but fillers always there to break some ice) ugh. |

| Decent episode for once actually. Sybillia did a great job taking care of that scumbag slumlord. Abusing little kids what a POS. Too bad the bento she had planned was a trap lmao. Little bit of sexual tension with she and Lilly there at the end too. |
 |
| I guess the rest of the show is just gonna be more flashbacks that don't even really need to be flashbacks. No reason this episode couldn't happen after the Impossible Mission. Just gonna have to accept that this is one of many shows whose only redeeming factor is attractive character designs. |
| I’m the point of no return for dropping an anime. God this is boring, LN readers just hype up any pile of crap with cute girls don’t they. |
| bruh are we still doing pre-impossible mission episodes??! Why not just have the impossible mission after these :( |

Of course ppl are going to be angry at that |
|
| some sibylla focus. the highlight of the episode was lily running from sibylla at the end tho. |
 |
| Sibylia's turn to shine this episode! Another episode set before the impossible mission tho idk how I feel about it but we get some more character development between the girls and well mainly Sibylia this episode. Sibylia had a really harsh upbringing and she is the girl who definitely can connect to those orphans the best. Hearing her wanting to help kids everywhere, wanting to give them a good and happy life really made me smile. Good on her!! Lily got her payback at the end as well lol, the way Klaus just slid of screen knowing what was about to happen. I really hope we get back to the present timeline next episode or just soon because I really wanna see the group complete more missions!! |

| Bro, when we are stopping the filler episodes and actually getting into the plot? While the filler is enjoyable, it feels extremely generic and bland. |
  |
| It seems they are adapting stuff in a different order. Cause instead of going to vol 2 after adapting vol 1, they are instead adapting short stories from each individual character.

 |
| it's Sibylla's episode, that means it's a good episode ^_^ |
| If there is one thing this show has going for it, is that I love when they make unique ED's for each of the cast, especially if they also have unique songs sung by the respective girl that the ed I about. |

Bro, this anime it's not confusing, any 10-year-old can understand this anime cause every episode it's generic and empty, but it's even more boring cause it's not only generic, we literally know the end. This is not in a weird order like Pulp Fiction for narrative, this is just an anime with a spoiler in chapter 3. So STOP WATCHING IT. Seriously nothing worse than people who actively hate something and then posting about it every week how much they don't like it. Good it's so boring- stop watching it. It's generic- stop watching it. You already know how it ends- seriously stop watching it. |
| That was a really fun episode. I wish they had beat up the child abuser more though. |
| Them chili pepper bombs are not to be taken lightly. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
Veck8699 said: I'll keep watching it, I don't hate it, but it's nothing out of the generic animes, nothing complicated, nothing new, just one more in my list. If you love it, bro, it's cool, everyone can love an anime even if it's not a master piece, but don't go around saying that it's a rare and complicated plot that regular Shonen and linear fans can't keep up with, cause it's not, the pre-missions chapters don't complicate anything, are not there to reveal missing vital info. Well you maybe made it sound a lot worse than it is. I don't think it's a masterpiece, I doubt I'll rate it over a 7. Unless it does something truly witty and brilliant that still seems so after more than 5 minutes after watching it. I'm also slightly salty about people posting about how they think it's generic and poor; because months having to listen to so much hype about everything else, that once I found this likable it become frustrating to feel like I'm even in the minority for liking it at all. There is a case that can be made for this non-linear storytelling style- which so far seems like it's working but it really depends on where they take it. And in either case, technically all anime apart from an elite few can be called generic. |
| I would've enjoyed this if i didn't know they cleared the main mission already. What the hell were the director thinking. It feels like they messed up the episode order. Really now, this anime is such a wasted potential. |
 |
| they're going to adopt each girls' backstory in the training bit before we get to post operation. Very frustrating they did it this way, but as standalone episodes they aren't bad. |
 |
| Lily's face expressions are very funny, and probably the only one girl I can remember the name, so I think the next episode is going to be about another girl. |
 |
| i didnt expect that this anime d be about trying to defeat the teacher. i was expecting a bit more action |
 |
| I do like that they are adding the missing character development. There's still too much I don't know about most of the members. |
| Trashy animation but at least the studio put all the effort to make Lily's boobs bounce when she ran. |
