| what a first episode! peak rom-com is back again. (worried about some toxic fans of other highly rated shows *ahem* fmab and aot *ahem* giving this masterpiece a 1 but it is what it is) |
| One Word: HILARIOUS |
 |
| 10/10 episode, The arm wrestling part was amazing |
 |
| Second hand embarrassment the anime |
| There is so much care put into this anime by A-1, I have to commend them every time. Really fun episode, but I wonder how far this season will get into the manga.. Waiting room for drama arcs. |
| I forget how fun it was to watch Kaguya sama this episode was really funny and my boi Ishigami won the arm wrestle at the end |
 |
| AND KAGUYA IS BACK!!! It has been very funny the 1st episode of this 3rd season. In the end the Ishigami thing didn't work xD, Hayasaka saved Kaguya with the cell phone, and in the end Chika turned out to be the weakest one hahaha. Very good episode, and the opening is very good. |
| Best anime comedy is back! And my god, how I missed it! |
 |
| I'm so glad we getting another series. I'm more an isekia, sci-fi, fantasy, kind of person, but every now and again you come across shows which are just fun to watch. Lets go. love this show and its characters! |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| This episode was AMAZING ! If the rest of the season is that good, I'll be forced to give out a 10 |
| Very interesting, this is the anime I've been waiting for the most. Unlike other anime, the comedy in this anime makes me laugh out loud. Thank you for comforting me this time. Unexpectedly, he would get a score of 9 in MAL, indeed from the start he had the potential for this. Very good anime. |
 |
| Ishigami is so based what the hell |
 My biggest regret: Reading all 200+ chapters of Kanojo, Okarishimasu |
| When a 20 min episode feels like an hour long you already know it's good |
  ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ Don't try and get me to cook I can take care of anything else but not that ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ |
| Fantastic Episode Each part had its moment  Mod Edit: Removed multiple screenshots |

| How I missed my beloved Hayasaka PriinceYuki said: When a 20 min episode feels like an hour long you already know it's good Ah, I wanted it to feel like an hour, but here the episode felt like 5 minutes |
| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Perhaps, this is hell. |
| i just realized how much i missed this anime, comedy at its peak |
| Kaguya-sama is one of the few Anime that can consistently make me genuinely laugh out loud and this first episode was hilarious! So excited for the rest of this season, probably going to end up being one of my all-time favorites |
| Hayasaka, Chika, Ishigami and Masayuki Suzuki are back baby, I don't understand how does the author do it, the show is just as good and funny as it was on the first episodes, Ishigami is just as much on an misunderstood and mistreated angel. |
| This was fantastic, only the first episode and it is already starting off strong. The episode was fucking hilarious. I was so thrilled during this episode, and I paused thinking I was near the end of the episode only to find I was halfway bringing me immense joy. I love the exaggerations of this show so much it is making me exaggerate a little I think. The amount of times I went crazy rocking in my chair throwing my hands up in the air or clasping them over my mouth in excitement and glee. Holy shit, I don't even know why I enjoyed this as much as I do but I sure am excited. I simply can not wait for the next one. |
       |
| The background during the Kinniku-hime part is based on the first Kinnikuman opening lol |
 |
| xD Good old Kaguya is back xD Fun episode. Ranked #10 already? Damn... |
| Every new season, this show doesn't just hit the ground running, it comes in with a burst of pure energy. It's all so funny I'm already laughing just at the anticipation of the punchlines. |
| Quantum ille canis est in fenestra |
| It's good to see these clowns in love back xd By the way, my favorite character is Ishigami.   |
| LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOO! this shit boutta be 10/10 for sure |
 |
| They are back!! With more gold comedy!! I laughed so hard. And they jumped into top10, amazing!! Also, what is this bug?  lol |

| PER-FE-CT opening episode. Great introduction to, perhaps, most important arc so far (for me ‘The ABCs of man and woman is as important), if not THE most important. Nearly perfect adaptation, plus, yet again, perfect op. Not to mention, obviously, great audio visuals in general. AOTS easily confirmed, I think there’s no competition even that spring 2022 is ungodly packed with, unironically, great shows. I’m so happy Kaguya has returned in full glory and proved, yet again, that there’s only one queen in the genre, at least in recent years. Introduction to the ‘Culture Festival Arc’ is has been powerfully launched. Can’t wait for more, can’t wait for anime only fans reactions as well, cuz we, manga followers are hyped, but anime only ppl are in for a real treat. I’m jealous a bit to be honest, but prolly no suprise here. Aww, I’m so happy… and hyped, which is rare af for me personally. |

| The OST is on point once again |
| bruh |
| After warming up with Season 2’s OVA a few days ago, Season 3 is finally here! It’s been a good wait, Season 2 back in Spring 2020 was amazing and I’ve been patiently waiting since, glad to see it finally, and what a great first episode to lead off with. My favorite bit of the episode was definitely the first bit, the classic not all the way plugged in headphones, and how the things Iino listened to progressively got more questionable was hilarious, it was nice to see Ishigami do all he could to save her from embarrassment, but it was all for not lol. The rest of the episode was hilarious as well, love seeing all these characters again and the intense hilarity they bring. Definitely can’t wait to see what else this season brings, after seeing that OP I’m excited to see some new and returning characters get the spotlight (especially best girl Hayasaka lol) and the song was great as always by the classic Suzuki, but I’m more excited to hear the ED this time, while the OPs always slap, the EDs are personally my favorite. |
| man i love ishigami |

| Meh. The 2 jokes relating technology (Ino's smartphone and Kaguya Line's conversation) felt so dragged out, overexplained and unfunny that for a while I thought I was watching The Big Bang Theory. The arm wrestling joke was ok, but I feel that after Asobi Asobase arm wrestling joke no other similar joke feels fresh or outstanding. |

| This episode had me crying from start to finish because I was laughing so hard. I actually had to pause it because I felt like I was going to pass out at times. Just everything had me in tears. I think I laughed the most at the phone notification part...LOL |

| 3 hilarious chapters in 1 ep. Absolutely amazing |
| I just couldn't stop laughing. This anime is one of the best that exists, this has to be said more. |
| Glad to see this back. One of the best romcom's in anime. Kaguya's so cute as always. The opening song is a banger again |

| That's a god-tier first episode. The comedy still hit as hard and the direction is still incredible. |
| that line part of the episode was fun, Shirogane won't type funny messages in the future though. I really laughed at that camel sound, who would think that's soothing, lmao. |
