Ooh new OP song! Not bad. It has the usual comedy gags and filled with energy. They're also really giving that Mikoto girl a lot of screentime this season :o

Those maid outfits though...very cute.

Not just not bad, it's divine. Although I have some feeling that they just decided to save on animation, lol. By the way, only me it seems, that this episode and the new ED tried to add material for shiping?

So we finally got the main plot of the whole manga and Saiki is repeating the year to save the world by trying to stop that eruption.
Saiki was badass when he confront these debt collectors trash and i just don't want to know what he did to traumatized them.

love the new OP and ED.

Jerky dance movements in the OP ( low budget animation?) fits this wacky show well lol

omg Saiki in the ED is wearing the costume of the legendary, world record breaking, super popular Japanese figure skater- yuzuru hanyu



amazing episode like always! Look when he dealt with those debt collectors, Saiki is such a badass! i am a bit torn about who i should ship Saiki with- Kokomi or Aiura. I am starting to like Aiura more and more since she is truly a nice girl who would help her friend in need

Is there any way to make embedded photos smaller using BBCodes? the source photos are just too large. I am fairly new in using and posting on forum, any help would be appreciated. Sorry for being off topic

This is possible the best saiki end ever? What a perfect messy duet!

And Saiki is repeating the same year over and over that explaing a lot of Young / Shounen Jump series. XD

New opening and ending! Well the new ending was better, but the first opening was much better than this one imo. Oh well, still not particularly bad or anything. Anyway starting off with a two parter featuring the two best girls with the biggest, most beautiful tits, Chisato and Aiura! XD Glad Chisato reunited with her dad. Saiki you tsundere! XD Then a look at his dad's job as editor(with easily the funniest moment of the episode for me: his mom screaming/thinking he'd died when finding his body he left via astral projection), flower viewing, and training! Quite the bombshell was revealed with that volcano and the time rewinds. I wonder if that will be addressed again as our finale at the end of the series. Man though, Saiki's training was impressive. And it got me thinking he could probably take out all the big shonen heavyweights with his powers!

Well, today I replayed the OP 10 times instead of 5 as usual before I finally started the episode, the new OP is too freaking good, time to put my hands up again (Saiki x Death Parade crossover when?)

They made the worst possible decision getting Saiki angry.


He can say all he wants but he cares so much for his friends, now Mera and her dad are safe (and still without money).

If your favorite manga goes to shit, check if Saiki's dad became the editor of it.

Why observe the cherry blossoms when you can observe Teruhashi instead, offu.

The last part was really important in terms of story, Saiki has been rewinding everything to a year before with his restoration power + mindcontrol to make it look normal until he can get to stop the volcano from erupting. Also... can I remind how absurdly overpowered Saiki is again? He's literally controlling the progress of the Earth, what a monster.

And if the episode wasn't already perfect, god, the new ED is too good, Teruhashi is right once again as well.


Put your hands up~

Great episode.

Was nice seeing Mera reunite with her Dad. Saiki's a softie at heart. XD

The manga editing stuff was priceless. XD

Kokomi is the ultimate spot claimer. XD
Saiki and his training was pretty impressive but damn I did not expect that Volcano plotline.

I don't know if the manga develops the love rivalry between Mikoto and Kokomi further, but that new ending is amazing. listening to Ai Kayano, who's my favorite seiyuu of all time, singing like that is a pleasure to me.

The new ED is great but I got mixed feelings on the opening... the dancing looks jank (and kinda stupid if I'm being honest) but the circling chibis are pretty cute and the song grows on you after a little while. All in all this was still a great episode though! The Silent Cyborg skit was soooo relatable

I love the new OP and ED. Ohmygod. Haha. I miss seeing chibi Saiki. Haha. Another priceless episode, I can't even choose which scene is my favorite. Lmfao.

Saiki channelling Spongebob in the ED, though. Hahaha. The new ED is the best ED of Saiki Kusuo no Psi Nan for me so far.

I guess you can say that Saiki's dad is just like the epitome of Usagi Drop's editor. Hahaha. How I wish we had Saiki years ago before the release of the 2nd volume of Usagi Drop.

I somehow think that Saiki is the most powerful anime character without his control device. The man can turn back time without the knowledge of everyone. Jeez. And we don't even know how powerful he really is. Saitama can choke. Goku can choke. Haha.

5/5. <3

Worst OP in the anime yet (although the other ones were awesome so that doesn't say much) yeah i can only describe it as ehhhhhhh... first 2 mini episodes were ok best part was saiki scaring those debt collectors. matsumura-san LMAO dude wth. saiki is essentially a god if you think about it he changes the world without anyone knowing and can perform miracles that's like the definition of a god

That OP is horrendous, this isn't a shitty unfunny lucky star tier anime where the joke is simply a loud noise or a reference, this is a clever funny anime where the joke doesn't simply rely on the characters it is written in with a set up and punchline. It is funny on paper. That OP suggests its some shit tier moe anime that has no substance and only has fans because there are pedophiles in the world.

Anyway, more Makoto, every episode needs a cut scene with Makoto, and Saiki and her have to end up together. That's a rule.

Do you have a minute to talk about our Lord and Saviour Saiki Kusuo?

He has been trying to save Japan from annihilation for the past 4 years by his own.
#Respect.. And yet, he isn't strong enough. Looks like he can control himself (kinda) without one of his antennas now, that's good I guess... I wonder how will it be if he takes them both... probably too much power to handle

The OP is alright, but is not something of my liking, still I found the OP to be funny as Saiki is there like "what the fuck are they doing?"

If Saiki is really only using mind control without reversing their physical body back, then that would mean a 4-5 yr old kid is treated as a baby in daycare? lol

The new opening and ending are 'weird' and rather unique and at first, for the opening I wasn't reading the subtitles and I legitimately thought that the lyrics had "Put your pants on" in it. I'm glad I just heard the lyrics incorrectly.

the scene where saiki did something Very Ominous to the debt collectors was great, and i always love aiura, her and kaidou are totally my faves <3. i'm glad mera will maybe finally have something to eat!!! the manga editor thing was also great, saiki's dad is as incompetent as ever. i can def relate to saiki being pissed in that situation lmao. also the astral projection bit when his mom freaks out was GREAT. kaidou getting super intense abt flower viewing was funny af too. volcano thing was also an interesting explanation? as absurd as i expected from saiki k. the whole training scene was just hilarious to me tbh. for me this show is good at making u realize how much u actually care abt the characters at pivotal moments, and i feel like when hes finally strong enough to stop it (if they even continue this plotline and it isn't just a one-off gag) there's def gonna be an "Oh. Oh shit." moment where he realizes his maybe a bit too crazy 2nd year of high school is gonna come to an end... ;-;

i really don't like the new op tbh?? psilent prisoner was fantastic and this one just doesn't sound good at all. also, the jerky animation just looks... wrong. sometimes jerky animation can work stylistically, but it just felt very obvious that this was because of budget constraints. i don't think this one will grow on me, kinda like saiki k season 1s first op (which also sucked LMAO). ending theme was pretty funny tho! tbh i don't ship saiki with anyone because he kinda has the Romantic and Sexual Urges of a Plant, but i do maybe ship aiura and teruhashi a little after this ed?? (that would probably be the best possible outcome for saiki, huh. aiura and teruhashi together, chiyo and kaidou together, and nobody trying to bother him anymore.)

overall pretty solid episode!
