Synopsis

Megumin is a young and passionate wizard from the Crimson Demon Village, a remote community of mages with red eyes and a flair for the dramatic. She has devoted her life to mastering explosion magic, a powerful but impractical spell that leaves her drained of mana and unable to move for the rest of the day. Regardless, she refuses to learn any other skills.

Along with her childhood friend and self-proclaimed rival, Yunyun, Megumin enrolls in the Red Prison: a prestigious academy for Crimson Demon magic users. There, she learns more about the secrets and history of her clan, as well as the threats and challenges they must face. As she polishes her power at the Red Prison with the help of her loyal familiar Chomusuke and her adorable little sister Komekko, Megumin aims to become the greatest explosion wizard of all time!

I’m not going to waste your time with pretentious metaphors, quotations, or examples that are commonplace for MAL as the Megumin spinoff of Konosuba is incredibly simplistic in a way that is not deserving of such a grandiose introduction. It’s just more Konosuba and it takes everything positive and negative that comes with that. To understand the inherent quality or lack thereof of the Megumin spinoff, one needs to acknowledge what made the original series compelling in the first place.

Konosuba’s main strength is its characters and their relationships with each other. With virtually no story to speak of, an episode of Konosuba typically consists of ...

Mixed Feelings
The main attraction of Konosuba is that it is a complete comedy that isn’t serious. If we compare this season to the previous two seasons and the legend of Crimson movie, it does its job just fine. Konosuba never had a plot in the first place so the fact that absolutely nothing happens in this spin-off shouldn’t bother you given that you have watched the first two seasons and the movie. Right off the bat, the characters are obviously different, and the show is too. I simply think that the series is not as funny without Satou Kazuma, Aqua, and Darkness. Don’t get me wrong, ...

Last episode: pretty good

Rest of the show: not so good

Honestly, they needed more fanservice. Like the soypoint "oh wow that's so wacky but cool" kinda fanservice. I know it's adapting source material, but like, for a sidestory, man could they have made it more indulgent.

I couldn't tell you what happens in each episode. There's basically kid Megumin, school, hot springs town, then starting village. Nothing that happens in each one matters. I wonder if this prequel is even required watching since it doesn't look like the villains are reoccurring. Anyways, it's been such a long gap since the original I don't remember it. Skill issue ...
