The main character is treated like garbage. The butt of so many jokes. Stand up for yourself, dude.
I want to like the show, there are some things I like. But a lot of the time it feels so average it hurts. Yet, I'll admit the last scene between Koito and Haruhiko was cute.

That was a bit of a 'meh' episode.
Pretty average, nothing ground breaking happened, nothing too interesting.

It was nice to see Koito start to interact with them at the end. Maybe she'll come out of her shell finally.

You know what you need to do to find that wasted potential? - even when the amount of bad writting and nonsensical plot is incredible - read the LN or try to find the summaries. You're watching something completely original from the anime, while I think in the same way as you do, I'm sure kyoani is right now getting the backlash of what they did here.

But for now if you want some cliffhanger that brings something interesting to the story I can only tell you this: that's probably not going to happen - umm cant remember the magazine but there is already the title and staff of the next episodes leaked -.

*Episode 4 -.
Honestly i think if you had Koito and Haruhiko only this entire episode you could've done something but Mai's actions IMO ruined the episode -. Her character to me is a bigger problem, Mai butting in to get the phantom was unnecessary -. The fussyness was idiotic -. I really hated how Mai had to step in to kill the beast too and lets not get into the water point. Regardless the LN wont help things it will just emphasize how bad it was -.


This is one of the exams why I don't quite into the show. There's no real tension or vulnerability. You already knew everything will be solved easily. And don't get me start on the viral infection outbreak caused the Phantom appearance, which seems interesting at first by the way they said in the first episode's intro, but then it quickly become absolute nonsense.

So I might be in the minority here but that constant "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..." of Minase while she's using her power makes the whole thing awkward. And annoying.

I realize it's supposed to be a song but... come on it's not even a singing voice. just... "aaaa...".
They could have put at the very least a minimal effort there.
Don't worry, you're not in the minority. I was also thinking the same thing.


It was a decent episode. It was focussed on Koito. Had a few laughs but could be better.

I hope I'm not the only one who seriously hates Minase's chant/singing voice. It's so bland and sounds really awkward.... Ugh.

The loli is officially my favorite character in this whole anime though omg.
I mean, JUST LOOK AT HER.
SHE'S ADORABLE.




And then Minase's blushing face is pretty kawaii too~

you are kidding? You wanted KonoSuba adapted by KyoAni?

Kazuma is a different MC, Kazuma not suffering bully and physical assaults of generic heroines what happens in 80% of the current show, in KonoSuba is Kazuma who does bully and mocks of the heroines, the first thing Kyoani would do is remove this characteristic of Kazuma, they would completely alter his personality and characteristics, and has transformed Kazuma in one of his beta MCs.

KonoSuba would be completely modified plot and story, they would go completely unique because KonoSuba is a type of show that violates the principles of KyoAni, KyoAni would never allow a male character especially the MC male to stand out and shine more than one of his stupid waifus Moe with soft hair, you would see something worse than they did with Musaigen the Phantom World.

Musaigen the Phantom World that you're watching is a original version made by KyoAni that is rewriting the history, the original version of the light novel is completely different.

You should is to thank God and be happy because KonoSuba was not adapted by KyoAni, because KonoSuba would have been more a great light novel that would end up being destroyed by KyoAni..


The negativity surrounding the show is simply to the fact that this is a completely original storyline -. But the fact is if you're going to adapt an LN for animation dont do anime original this soon -. It completely alienates the fans of the LN and those looking forward to it -.

I thank God every day, that Code Geass and Death Note have not been adapted by KyoAni.

An episode based around Minase, I like her so let's get roightttt inttooo the newzzz (yes keemstar)
Man the sensei is freaking hot and beautiful
Pedobear emerging to help, no wonder the loli has it.
Red head literally getting a red head (ayy gr8 pun m8 lolololol), she's qt tho
I knew Minase was going through those kinds of problems ( she'll fukin kill me if I call her Koito), being left alone as others were pu55ies around her. Real world is like this as well.
Cheeky Sensei lying ayy I got you m8, I fokkin got you.
What Ruru-chan goes to "places" at night!? I'm kind worried about that you know. Shit.
And yeah, overall a pretty nice episode. It's a 3/5 from me
p.s purple haired loli joined and her pedobear put in some work in this episode.

What a circus this is. Everyone just quit whining about everything and quit weeab-ing. It's obviously another anime in the long line of moe service anime. Appreciate it for what it is or just don't watch.
I saw someone bitch about loli: seriously now, so immature we can't handle some loli?

Sensei pulling the strings behind is a troll because she already knew that phantom is not the same one 4 years ago.
Moe Kurumi is moe! (a very distinct voice VA Kuno Misaki!)
Blushing Koito is also cute!
seems like Mai-sempai and Koito-san won't be getting along with each other (for now)...

Sigh... ok, but this anime is getting tedious. It is trying to insert conflict and character drama, but it is really, really not working. Just focus on humor, fanservice and battles with phantoms. The attempts at seriousness fall entirely flat.

Koito is so adorable. I have a soft spot for the stony characters with a cold exterior who are warm and fluffy on the inside. Sweet little kuudere.

I will agree that the noise she makes to activate her power really isn't "singing", though. More like awkward yelling.

Albrecht (or is it Tibbers? All you people keep referring to the League of Legends champion) is my new favorite. I mean favorite Phantom. Ruu needs to develop more character(which I hope she does, especially with her being secretive about what she does at night.)

I think everyone is missing the point of the mc. He truly is the glue that brings the team together. Without him none of the others would get along, or would have even met.


I think that Ruru actually is a supporting spirit so I don't know I think a flat character is fine since she is not a real person.

Albrecht is actually really usefull Kurumi only needs to call him and then he does all the fighting.

All in all nice Episode. I liked that they also switched to Koito's point of view for some time.

For me it looks like they needed 3 Episodes to find their style and now doing fine.

You think there would be enough phantoms around that they wouldn't have to fight over who has the "rights" to take one down. Did we really need a petty rivalry between Koita and Mai?

I love how they show Koito practicing singing a bit home alone, then cut to our main guy yawning at the door. The two of them are synchronized~ haha.

I feel like the whole problem wouldn't even have happened if Haruhiko hadn't gone after Minase at the beginning. She lost her voice because she went to protect him, but oh well.
