| what a beautiful episode ;-; |
| The OP was amazing, the Art was amazing, the Animation was amazing It looks like Shaft have really stepped things up from last season I was hoping for a sisters centered episode after the drawn out Shogi arc towards the end of the first season but it was still a great episode and it was nice to see the sisters there at the end (especially Momo) I'm so happy to see the return of my 2016 AOTY |

 |
| This episode was sweet as that Ramune. So happy its back, such a heartwarming episode. Sadly there was little Momo in this episode T-T, Otherwise 5/5 |

| I am so happy it's back! Seeing Rei connecting with the shogi science club brought tears to my eyes. I had a feeling there wouldn't be time to show the girls and was so excited when they appeared. |
| A nice, funny and calm episode this was, to initiate the Second Season of 3-Gatsu no Lion. Personally, I loved both the Op and ED a lot but unfortunately none of them was as remarkable as the first Op or the last two ED of the previous season. Still soothing and really good, nonetheless. Best moment of this episode, hands down, goes towards the last minutes of the episode where Rei realizes just how close and involved he currently is with the Science Club and also his closeness with the Kawamoto family. Can't wait to see more of this and I'm glad this show is back all guns blazing. Overall, a solid start to the Second Season. 8/10 |

| the wait is finally over more lion! great start but someone needs to call shaft they be abusing their budget already in one episode lol new aesthetic choices were wonderful to look at and overall looks like a improvement from last season |
 |
| Amazing, as expected. Really like the ED. Personally I prefer the tone and animation style of the previous season, but this is still great. |
| Nice episode to start off the season with. Shows the real character growth, just needed more of the sisters. |
 |
| How i missed this a lot , nice to see rei and his friends again and especially those 3 girls ,akari,hina, and momo They're so cute I like the op And what is a ramune? Some kind of candy ? It made of sugar but idk |
| The hype is real!!! MOMO IS BACK AND THE CATS TOO!!! |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| Yesss... I got my potion to relax my mind. Very heartwarming, cozy and calm. |
 |
| The first thing I noticed was how happy Rei sounded in his opening monologue. Loved how proud and content he was when explaining shogi to his friends. I admit I cried a lil. |
 |
| The opening is so beautiful ;-; YUKI's voice definitely suits the feeling of the anime compared to BUMP OF CHICKEN so I prefer yuki openings :D |
| Now THAT'S how you eat a cake. Good to see Rei happy and actually enjoying something for a change. I wonder if he'll start his own meth ramune lab and supply himself with some rumune pills, in order to use them as energy supplements during his matches lol. The first opening is still the best one. But being a SHAFT OP, it at least looks interesting and unique, compared to your regular anime OPs. |
| IT IS FINALLY HERE!!!! IT IS SO NICE SEEING REI HAPPY ALL THE TIME!!! I MISSED HIM AND THE THREE SISTERS SO MUCH!!!! the op and ed are amazing and the animation is as beautiful as ever. |
  |
| May comes in like a lion. first episode was great, i was honestly just smiling while watching this. especially in the scene after the credits |

| The animation of the button/pin(?) at ~8:21 was unbelievable, had to re-watch it like 10 times, only to go back after the ep finished at watch it a few more. |
   |
| I'M SO FREAKING HYPED FOR THIS. I can't contain my excitement. This is just a feast to the eyes...and the story really gets to you and is both heartwarming and beautiful.  EDIT: i ADORE how lively Rei is in this episode. He's talking so much, laughing with his new friends, eating and watching shogi with people who is actually interested. So much happiness <3 The cake scene is marvelous. I'm craving cakes so badly right now. |

| I have missed this show so much! |

| I just love the openings/endings of this show. <3 |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| It was... okay. I was kinda bored during the science lab scene in the second half. I feel like we've had scenes already where Kiriyama stops and marvels about how he now has friends. |
 |
| Glad to have one of my favourites back. Nice way to start off the season, new OP and ED were good, some new characters looking like they'll play larger roles. Momo is as adorable as ever. |

Probably not. We have around 2 chapters per episode like in S1 and the action cited occurs after 100+ chapters. This season will focus in the development of Rei and the shogi world, and the Hinata arc. I guess. |

So I still think it's early to judge. There's a lot they could cut, IMO. Furthermore, I didn't really specify "in this season". I'm hoping we get as many seasons as possible. Even if we catch up, I don't mind long breaks inbetween seasons as long as we keep getting more (Natsume Yuujinchou being a good example of that). If they keep the quality hope, I'll be happy. |

Agree, it was just the first episode of S2, but I already wanna the S3 in 2018 (although we don't have enough chapters for more 22 episode right now). But we still have a long year until there, let`s enjoy this season. |

| I love this anime, already cant wait for season 3 |

| So good that this show was renewed for a new season. So a year later Rei is now 18 and seems to be more confidant. Pretty nice opening theme actually. May the time of spring and of rebirth. Its nice that Rei is now able to attend both school and club activities like a normal student. As a pro player Rei was a good choice to act as adviser i think. Visualizing the shogi pieces as cats is hillarious though. Its nice to see Rei has become much more confident with speaking to others though. The teacher throwing a tantrum sure is hillarious. Man so thats what a serious guy playing shogi looks like eating cake during a match. The analysis of the eating habits sure was hillarious. The science segment though was really funny and a interesting learning experience. Its nice to see Rei enjoying himself in something other than shogi. Interesting episode and its nice to see Rei and company again after so long. |

| Ah it was so nice to see the Shogi Science club study shogi together, this way Kiriyama won't be alone anymore and he can have some fun doing club activities. A sweet episode overall. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| So good to ser Rei happy, it warms my heart. |
| Baby, daijobanai... |
| It's wonderful to see this show returning for a second season and thankfully, the first episode was really good. Rei sounds more confident and happier compared to when we first saw him in season one. Being part of a school club and helping to teach the other guys, as well as the teacher, about shogi was really nice to see. Same goes for when Rei took part in making Glucose and baking soda. It shows how much he has grown as a character now. =) Of course, we would see the lovely Kawamoto sisters again, and they were, as always, enjoyable to watch as they tried out the Glucose that Rei made. The visuals were very good once again and the OP song from Yuki was very good. Brian The Sun's ED song is also a good song as well. =) |
| Good to see this back, and with a heartwarming episode at that. |
  |
| Who knew that a scene about making ramune would bring a grown man to tears T^T too beautiful for thy eyes... I am so overjoyed that my eyes began to leak some odd liquid while simply pressing play and in that first moment I realized this is going to be my top anime of fall 2017. |

I hope so too, although if they covered the same amount of chapter like the first season, I don't think that arc will even be covered WHY DID I CLICK ON THE SPOILER BUTTON AAAAH now I am really excited fhshebfbe |
|
| Watching this episode felt like coming back to a warm home smelling like apple pie on a chilly autumn day. I just know I'm going to be enjoying this second season to the utmost! |
| Nothing is Completely Useless. |
| SHAFT strikes again and welcome back 3-gatsu no Lion!!! so happy to see Kiriyama enjoying the club activity! creating Ramune! so the Meijin even has trouble defending his title against Kumakura! LOL at how the 2 Shogi Grandmasters consume their snacks! and good moments again with the 3 sisters! so adorable! 5/5. |

|
| I like how SHAFT has picked up where it left off, about 2 chapters per ep. OP and ED are just OK, got spoiled with BoC. |
| "Genki is Life, Genki is Love" |
| Noticeably more visually dynamic, which may or may not be good. Personally not liking it too much, Sangatsu is better a bit more minimal and personal to me, which I'm sure it will become in certain future episodes |
