I feel this episode isn't as good as the 1st with all the shock factor gone. Just going to the gambling den to bet for their lives, but there doesn't seem to be any more surprises in this episode.

This just goes to show how difficult the maid business can be. Nagomi got a taste of it.

I know this show is protrayed as more of a comedy but it still shows that being a maid is not easy in any type of enviroment. I'm rooting for Nagomi this season though. With time and experience, I think she can get used to her role.

So, after guns, Wuv-Wuv Moonbeam lost its right, and the Oinky Doink café is back in business. Only except that Nagomi still can't accept the feeling that what she saw, she can't unsee it.

But the café going out of business and sold as collateral thanks to the manager with not a lot of cash returned, and it's off to gamble at the so-called "Maid Casino" to gamble and earn more back...at the disposal of the loan shark who the manager borrowed the money from the first place.

From the café to literally maids, gambling at this maid casino is truly a gamble on life. And playing poker while chipping away at every maid's skill, that's their goal to get all of them surrounded. Ranko placing all of her bets on Yumechi may seem like a life's wager, but ultimately, she made the right choice as Yumechi is a force to be reckoned with: the Gambling Adoracalypse as she is...not. And as it is, Ranko got the last laugh as the assassin to blast their way out of the casino.

The panda...lols, not quite Jujutsu Kaisen level, but yeah...

Nagomi would think twice about how maid cafes and gambles would work now. Save her life...

What can go wrong with maid and gambling?? Explosion! They just burned the entire building with explosives and gas leak. That was very wild.

Now I'm 100% about what I hate about this anime, that dips**t manager. Would perfect and the most heroic thing if Ranko would just put a bullet between her eyes.

The first episode was surprising but this episode failed to deliver and it's making me doubt whether i should keep watching or not, not really a fan of action nor of the whole crime thing which is the route this seems to be going.
I might have found the one PA Works anime that isn't my thing but i will give it a few more episodes.

Even with all shooting and whatnot towards the end, episode for the most part felt dry. Though that epic fail when Yumechi lost the bet even after figuring their trick sure was hilarious.

No doubt Ranko's carrying this show.

Considerably less crazy than the last episode. At this point, I've accepted that this plot is just very stupid, yet so amazing somehow. In a way, it's "so bad that it's good".

Ive never seen an MC just mentally degrade to gray this much lol, I feel bad for Nagomi Tho. Remember she's witnessed a mass murder and a building explode in like 2 days, While this is the most traumatic days of her life. The others treat it as like Tuesday lmao.

not as great as first episode but still good (the show's debut put the plank way too high to outbeat). Just let's hope it wont fall from the cliff like zombieland saga.
After having awfull summer season with nothing to watch (maybe kumichou musume is the only show that could stay cool) the fall 2022 is more promising at least.

I was skeptical about how the show was going to be after the first episode since this show gave me easy hit or extreme miss vibes. And after this episode, direction's leaning a lot more to miss for me to be honest. Didn't enjoy this episode nor the direction of the story much to be honest here. That surprise element is gone too so this was underwhelming.

I much prefer the Birdie Wing Golf Girl's Story approach to the weird wacky underground element where you wouldn't expect it. Akiba seems to be going all in on shock value, and eventually that runs out. Birdie Wing at least seemed to have some sort of story to go along with the wackiness.

An illegal casino lol, of course it would end up this way, though I expected Yumechi to pull out the mastermind Kaiji plan to counter their cheating but it didn't work, you have to rely on Ranko to take the gun and genuinely kill them xD The grenade reverse trick was hardcore

Love that Yumechi reveals them and immediately loses. Would have been great if they actually got shipped to the berring sea and the show continued from there. This was good too though.

The Texas hold 'em match had way more tension than any of the Kakegurui episodes from season 1. I liked how Yumechi called the bluffs on the table, and still was outgunned by a three of a kind nines against her eights.

Gotta love the Tenchou for being the main source of chaos of the Pig cafe.

Shame that peeps will remember more vividly the PSTD scene in Edgerunners just because it was way more popular. But Nagomi's triggers on ketchup and the blender red smoothie feel more fitting for trauma sequels compared to the vapid scene in Edgerunners that it's completely forgotten in the next episode.

Edit: I'm already expecting a dark turn for Nerula and Nagomi descending even further into a downward spiral of madness. It won't be about when, but how bad will it be the toll on Nagomi's already flaky sanity.

I fell in love with this anime from the first episode. Just put together the things I love most MAIDS, MOE and TARANTINO. I love all this cuteness and blood mixed up! Are perfect!

This episode was a little slow but the ending was an amazing explosion reminding me of our dear movie and explosion lover Fujimoto. ANIME and MOVIES go very well together.

Not as crazy as the first episode though that's expected and I'm in for building up the story.

Ranko mentioned the number 96 in her introduction, makes me wonder if that's her prisoner number or military number.

Now that the shock/novelty has worn off, this episode is still well above most anime for entertainment value; it's really hard to follow an act like Ep.1 though.

Now that I (think I) know what to expect, this looks like it's worth continuing to watch, and hopefully we get some more backstory on Ranko as this goes forward.

The first episode was gonna be a hard task to live up to, I enjoyed it enough to watch it twice. Episode 2 is still decent enough but not on the same level, with that said I love the idiot Tenchou and Yumechi's fail was pretty great. 4/5

I found the good chunk of the episode kinda boring, but the end made it up for me. I was wondering how they were going to get out of this situation and forgot that murder is a viable option.
During the poker scene, I've wondered if it would be more interesting if we knew what cards people had (That's how a lot of IRL poker videos are.), but reveal that her full house was outclassed wouldn't have worked so well.

Now that the shock factor of the first episode has now come and gone, the second episode had a tougher time to live up to the expectations of those who're watching. For me, this episode was still very entertaining, although not as good as the pilot episode.

The girls end up in more trouble thanks to how useless their manager is when it comes to money. The group's plan to win it big at the illegal casino sadly backfired, despite a spirited attempt from Yumechi during a game of poker where she called out the opponent's bluffs before ironically losing herself. In the end, the only way to sort this issue out was to bring out the murder weapons again and that's what Ranko decided upon. I do love the way the visuals went crazy when the manager started shouting. Thanks to the Panda for leaving the gas stove on at full power, Ranko lobbed the grenade back into the building and walked off as it exploded behind her. XD

Hopefully in a future episode, we'll get to see more backstory on Ranko as well as the other characters.
