Best episode so far, and all of them have been great... Kaguya's reaction when he said it was a dog, soo disappointed he was right and didnt fall on the trap, CUTE.

There is alot more I could comment, that the episode did great, but I will just that new ED was just amazing, 11/10 animation, very catchy song, amazing VA performance, everything just felt very Chika and just overflowing of cuteness and charm!
Guess this is what happens when the studios are doing a passionable job and are giving great budget for it.

Great episode 5/5, the first skit about having done it was especially funny and the episode finished with a some wholesome character development. The rotoscoped ED was a lovely surprise and the song was cute.
Just picked up this show today and it’s growing on me quickly, a neat surprise this season I wasn’t anticipating.
Also what an actual banger of an OP, it’s so catchy! Looking forward to the next episode.

I guess, no matter how dark and intimidating Kaguya looks on the surface, she was one pure soul, I knew there was some kind of misunderstanding when they dragged that scene around, and man, it was one of the greatest misunderstanding moments I've seen, right below the bath scene from Prison School (That one was a legend).
And when they decided to let her know, man, I know that position, I've been there as both the informer and the informed before, and it was encapsulated perfectly.
The Cowboy themed 20 questions dame was amazing, never heard of it, and it sounds fun, going to bring that in tonight's conversation for sure.
I love how they added in a Yeti crossing the other road just when they brought it on a conversation, that kid is cute by the way.
Wholesome ending. Take some notes Zombieland Saga, that's how you animate a dance.

Guys, I'd like to know, is romcom anime usually like this? (I haven't watched many romcom so far)
I mean, this series has been putting me in an emotional rollercoaster since the first episode. In the midst of laughing so hard from the comedy, you are also presented with some heart-warming romance, which makes my head kinda confused lol
Also, the ED sequence caught me off guard as well. Just, what is THAT? So addicting. <3

Props to the anime crews who made it possible! They've been doing such an amazing job...
I just realized that all of my favorite characters, beside being stunningly beautiful, also happen to be exceptionally skilled murder machines. \('-')/

I mean, kaguya is one of the better romcomcs cause of this but that tone itself is more the norm than it is the aversion, kaguya is just really good at what it does.

HAHA True. But from what i can tell, this rotoscoping may have been done of an mmd-style avatar animated with mocap, as opposed to a real life... i could be wrong, but the problem is stylistic choice. You want to keep your style but use film or 3d references. The problem with Aku no Hana, is it was basically a live action thing that they just drew overtop 1 for 1.

Learning about what sex actually is so late in the game is like realizing Santa ain't real just as late. She'll never be the same now but I don't care, I was just laughing at the whole thing. Also I didn't see it the first couple of episodes but MY GOD THAT DANCE SEQUENCE IN THE CREDITS WAS GLORIOUS. Plus the addition of the outside bit was a nice way to break from the battles they have.

I don't get it why everyone is losing their shit now, just because the credits have an AMV in it this time. Like it's not even a very outstanding dance or song, it's maybe something new to a credit-section, but seriously. It's maybe a cherry on top, but you're still gonna starve if you live on those only...

The ending was sublime. Chika for the win!

Kaguya's misunderstanding spun out of control really fast. But when she finally realised the error of her ways... I loved how Chika took it upon herself to educate Kaguya on the matter, despite her averseness to the magasine that evoked the issue.

Well, at least the episode ended on a positive note for Kaguya. Heart-warming.

What caught my attention on this episode is the ED visuals of Chika's Dance! definitely not CG but damn! the key frame animation is SASUGA! oh yea right rotoscoped ED!
and a lot of people are talking about it apparently.
good episode by the way!
Kaguya definitely lost on the first last because of her lack of knowledge about sexual intercourse topics!
Part B and part C was MEH!
5/5.

oh nice! Kino Hina voiced the gradeschooler from part C!
LOL at the Yeti wandering around the streets!

Didn't like the long intro last week? We'll speed it up this week! So meta haha.

The 3rd part was really cute :) And there's a yeti walking around the streets of Japan!

And that ED!!! :O I was wondering why there was a speck on the curtain the whole time though haha.

This was definitely the best episode so far.

Throwing some heartfelt moments into the mix is fairly common in the genre, though in my opinion few romcoms execute on it very well, either because of poor timing or the balance between comedy / romance is awkward. This anime just executes on those things very strongly (again, just my opinion but it seems widely shared lol)!

The funniest part was when Miyuki thought Kaguya DID IT with her own nephew and Chika-sama with her dog LOL these misunderstandings are gold.

Of course, that ending of them riding the bike together was adorable. I hope they do end up together, they can sometimes be annoying but they're hilarious and adorable at the same time.

What a great way to start the episode hahah Poor Kaguya xD I thought that she was talking about first kiss and that she was just misleading everyone, but nope, she just didn't knew xD poor girl hahaha

That must be horrible to go every day to school by a car :/
Great ending, it was such a happy moment to see Kaguya smiling while she was on the back of that bike.

Best ED ever? hahahaha Chika is the best, just look at her face hahahah 10/10

People in the west probably have no idea how much effort put into that ED cuz it's not CG.

This ED alone causes an extreme boon in the discussion/ popularity of this anime as a whole in Japan and China. It literally makes this anime one of the most popular one this season.
