| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I must say, this side of Hayasaka is quite cute and amusing to watch. It may just be acting but she's really going all in with her plan to get Shirogane. That hair style is adorable as hell.  Too bad it's still her loss. RIP. Very glad to see Miko Iino show up this episode! Definitely someone to watch out for at school with that personality of hers. |

Hayasaka looked very upset after hearing Shirogane's statement. Looks like Kaguya is stalking them, lol. |

| Man you guys post even before the show actually ends lol. Anyways this is by far my personal favorite ep, the chapters adapted were some of my faves especially the middle one, I remember reading that back then and find it the most adorable ch yet. Also the fact that 2 of my favorite charas in it, 1st part having a Hayasaka focus one and the 2nd part having my best girl Maki in it! I swear this is one of em anime that hightens the exp for manga readers, they are adapting this so freaking well and adding some fun shit, one that stood out was Kaguya and Miyuki literally running away like crazy at the 2nd part, manga didnt have that iirc, and those added Hayasaka and Kaguya reactions throughout the ep. |
  |
| Iino Miko arrives. Really loved the episode. AotY for me. Edit: During the ED, Iino Miko now shows her face which she didn't use to before this episode. 6/5 |

| My favorite episode from the series to date, really funny, especially the second part of the episode with the false confession and the many character teases. Iino makes her debut this episode, alongside Osaragi. Iino has the perfect VA, it fits her well, Osaragi on the other hand, I always pictured a deeper voice or something. 5/5  |

Yep. OP posts for every anime of the season before the episode actually airs. Idk what the obsession is. |

| Look man, Hayasaka got me about to act up: https://imgur.com/a/DBDcQ65 Been saying she was best girl for years now. She really put the pressure on Kaguya this episode lol. “You could keep me as a side piece” 😂 Love how the entire school set up camp, school tube news reporting, line chats etc just for Shirogane wanting to ask Kaguya a question outside lmaooo First half was dominated by Hayasaka, but second half we get Miko who is going to be another character I really like. She had a great introduction. Can’t wait to see more of her hilarious episode from start to finish. Went by in a breeze. Enjoying this one a lot more than season 1. Jokes seem to be consistently hitting. Can’t wait for next week |

| Fantastic episode as always. Hayasaka went all out in trying to seduce Miyuki, she was genuinely depressed she couldn't win at the end. Hah. Miyuki only has eyes for Kaguya. <3 The second part was so adorable, to be honest I was really hoping Miyuki would actually confess to Kaguya especially when he began thinking along the lines of it would be alright if he did, too bad his pride got the better of him at the end. Kaguya being all flustered was so cute. <3 I loved Miyuki and Ishigami's reaction to Miko saying Chika should be the vice president. That was hilarious. Iino seems like an interesting character so I'm looking forward to see what she'll do. |
 |
| I really hate the ino election arc, it’s by far my least favorite arc in the manga. |
| Hayasaka went all out to seduce Shirogane. Too bad she failed at the end. Though I have to say, she was really cute. We have a new character introduced, Iino Miko. A rival for Shirogane. |

| Really missing the how cutes |

1Kyo said: Fujiwara playing Chopin's revolutionary etude in a 4th grade competition? Not bad lol Damn is it just me or is this season wayyy better than the first one? These four episodes were fire. Maybe it's because I marathoned season 1 and am watching season 2 weekly, but usually I enjoy a series more when I marathon it. Looking forward to that election arc! Not just you. This season is definitely better. And trust me, it should be getting much better by the end of it. |
| She definitely didn't say easily, but Hayasaka has a point, Kaguya's game sucks and at least she knows how to weaponize the charm of a women, even tho it was to no avail. Lol, loved the sparks between the two. Shirogane in a predicament had me dying. And damn, didn't know Miko was a Chika fan. What a cultured girl, I approve. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| When you have someone AS desperate as Kaguya (but still fails badly at the love game), and being the assistant and housemaid to this preposterous girl, Hayasaka has a duty to fulfill, and no challenge is too far for her: the challenge to seduce Shirogane (albeit one day is not enough, HEH). And whaddya know, the same as last episode, Shirogane's denseness doesn't help, but his inept knowledge is the constant love trigger. But his confession, whilst opens the path, casts a shadow of doubt (HEH). Alas, Shinomiya and Shirogane's secret may be (slightly) out, but as always, a rumour of the romance, internal hot school news kind. And Chika, she ALWAYS tries to steal his thunder to the absolute insanity degree, so much so that it's hilarious. As much as the formation of the new student council is underway, grim reaper Ishigami has spotted the outlier: freshman Miko Iino, FINALLY about time she's got her introduction! So much for making "the school great again" Donald Trump style, and winning "the maestro" Chika over would be a VERY, VERY BIG disaster. Oh well, challenge is on??? Lovely episode, how cute and fantastic as usual. |
 |
| LOL @ campaign flier. Enforced hair styles and skirt sizes for students. Fujiwara should have look at Iino's promises before betraying Shirogane. |

| Hayasaka the goat, she really can do anything XD. She was so adorable with this persona. Here comes Miko Ino, as if Fujiwara wasn't annoying enough. |
 |
| It looks like Hayasaka is finally important. |
| Jolyne Kuujou + Steel Ball Run Universe = Billie Eillish |
| Hayasaka is amazing Iino Miko is adorable Did the flyer say anything relevant to the scene? I felt like I was missing the joke because Aniplex didn't sub the flyer |
 |
| Aaaaaaa it's here!! Very good episode, a Hayasaka-centered episode, one of my favorite chapter got animated, and Iino debuts in the anime! Really happy to see one of my favorite panel get animated (when Kaguya leans towards Miyuki and accepts the speech offer). 6/5 Very good, I was fed well. |
| Hasayaka is in my top-3 of favourite anime INFJ characters now. I don't know how long will this arc last, but all these 4 episodes were great.It's kinda predictable that Shirogane wins and this activist girl will still work in student council.I am not familliar with manga and first thought she will be a kind of love rival to Kaguya, but it looks like she will most likely be a comic relief cutie character. |
| I hate everyone equally |
deaf_amish_guy said: I love the low key puns, emphasis, and references everybody’s name has. “iino miko” basically means the good shrine maiden or from a Western perspective it’s like literally naming your child “goodie two shoes” lol Thank you for that input. Even as someone who started reading this manga from the start, I did not know this little pearl of wisdom. So incredibly fitting for her. That said, I had forgotten how incredibly annoying and cringe inducing she was when she was introduced. They did a smashing job with that scene where half the school seems they're confessing. This is so well directed. Hayasaka, dear Hayasaka, seeing her go out trying to seduce the Prez' was Kaguya squirming was so finely animated. Only sad thing was seeing Hayasaca |

| Iino's finally here! I waited for this since the 2nd season was announced. The hilariousness of this anime is gonna go up once more. |
| Fantastic episode, like the usual services from this show really. Hayasaka dominated first half, how often have we gotten that thus far? Definitely felt like a rare but delightful treat nonetheless. It's amazing how she managed to stir up a few things between Shirogane and Shinomiya all by herself, I suppose that's Hayasaka in full glory for you. And I see her research is on-point too, lol. Damn, that smooth other version back in school though. Kaguya really messed up in the pre-Op events there, but it's a good thing that Shirogane unintentionally managed to keep that safe and sound. I'm amazed that Kaguya actually stood for three hours like that while Hayasaka was fake-sleeping though, that takes dedication xD. And finally, Iino Miko in the second half. First minute in, and I know she'll make for a great side character. Idolising Fujiwara though, she'll be in for a treat if she happens to somehow win I guess. Quite the bold assistant she's got too. I'm curious to see how the election will play out. I doubt the bad display and unreasonable conditions of the fliers will seal the deal just yet after all. And we got as close to a confession as ever in the series but of course it would like that. I totally wasn't expecting anything there, lol. Seriously though, that was some pressure. Even the underground system was on the move, lmao. Fujiwara making things worse there midway, yikes couldn't help but let out a loud snort. |

Crew cuts for boys, pigtails and or braids for girls. Minimum skirt length of 10cm below knees. No decorative accessories. 2. No mobile phones allowed in the school. 3. Bags shall be inspected on a weekly basis. 4. Boys and girls shall not come within a distance of 50cm of each other. So yeah, she's pretty by the book lol. |

| What I find particularly remarkable about this anime adaption is that it's a treasure chest for those extreme fans (like me) who have read the manga 10+ times. Take Shokugeki no Souma for example, a show which I really really liked, but which I found almost tedious to follow in anime form (since it was a near 100% conversion down to the frames). Kaguya-sama S2 on the other hand is totally amazing, I can't wait to watch each episode, and then I want to rewatch it once more to make sure I don't miss any little details. Example: After being frustrated in the earlier episode, Hayasaka's evil-eyed face when she was calling out Shinomiya in the most publicity-inducing way (clearly getting her back for the first third) nearly made me spray the monitor with soda. Such an awesome awesome conversion. It's clear that those folks working on it aren't merely very talented pros, they are having a blast themselves. |
| So many best girl. Hayasaka did it again. Aww,she's cry. Every episode is CONSISTENTLY good. This is what make this anime so awesome. |
| Damn what Rollercoaster. Loved seeing everyone gather around to see Shirogane confess xD Hayasaka was such a beautiful blond, where is my blond beauty? ;c And yet again nice to see some rivalry for the president spot. |
 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. |
| Hayasaka's ver. 2 was really cute. Plus she builds PCs in her spare time?! No wonder why shes best girl. Her VA does a cute voice very well too. Looking forward as well on how the election arc will play out. Fujiwara playing the piano in 4th grade gave me mad Your Lie in April flashbacks tho. |
 |
| Just amazing! Hayasaka's transformation, so cute! And that challenge from Kaguya, that reiatsu from Hayasaka =/ Also admitting her defeat, so cute! The fake confession part, hilarious and expected ... Also Maki =( Cute Miko Iino is finally here! Love her idealizing Fujiwara ... Can't wait for the actual election! |
 |
 C'mon Kaguya confess to Shriogane already. |
| Okay, so since Aniplex is terrible at translating and typesetting, they didn't translate Iino's poster. In the manga, it's translated as follows: Campaign Promise: I, Miko Iiino, pledge to enforce the following rules to maintain a wholesome and healthy student body and to make Shuchiin a better place. Boys: Shaved heads; Girls: Pigtails or braids - Skirt length must be four inches below the knee. Useless accessories will be prohibited. No cell phones at school. Your belongings will be inspected once a week. Students of the opposite sex will be prohibited from getting closer than 20 inches of each other. |
 |
| Hayasaka best girl |
| So the student council elections are finally here. Though besides their work Kaguya and Shirogane sure have few things to talk about. Kaguya's little tantrum sure did well in putting Hayasaka into the limelight. Going on the offence from the get go sure is just like her. Against her smile not even Shirogane can't maintain his usual perception it seems. The reaction of the schools social network regarding potential changes to Kaguya and Shirogane's relationship though sure was amusing. Chika's little intervention sure made things that much more complex. Hmm Miko is the very image of a honor student. Even though she's just a freshman her words and the conviction behind them really puts Shirogane to shame. Overall an excellent ep that did well in showing how deadly Hayasaka can be when she goes about a task. Her ever changing persona's were a joy to see. Miko though looks to be an interesting rival for Shirogane given her records so far and im curious to see how the elections will play out. |

| "Who needs drugs when you got cute anime girls?" -Sun Tzu |
| Iino is finally here bois. Damn, they're really adapting this show so well, might even be better than the original source, which was already gold. Each and every week, the episodes just get better and better. Also, did anybody notice the monogatari reference? The scene with miyuki and chika having a conversation about campaign speeches? |
| It was halfway through and I posted when they were taking a break. typing and posting pictures takes some time, so I thought it covered the final minutes. Whatever the reason is, as long as I get the material to create a discussion forum, that is enough for me. |
