Yea they definitely upped the comedy in this one compared to s1 like Xinil said. This was a really funny episode. New girl Ogiue seems like she will make a good addition to the group. I'm still on the fence with Kuchiki though.

That was a really funny episode. I kinda like the new girl. I cringed so hard when she was found out. I guess there isn't a girl who doesn't like gay men. Ogiue was about to jump from the third floor! Great episode!

Episode that does not regret the first season, starting in the best way, with a joke epic Ogi-chin.
Narratively is very usable and no troublesome points.
Plot advancing well, drawings by Chara Design a little different; now I would very nearly that old.
The new opening not like what the old one, the ending instead is unchanged and is beautiful to listen to.

Ogiue reminds me of a very young me. Those were some terrible memories.

The shame of being "found out" and fear of people accusing you of liking certain fetishes leads the individual to deny said fetish with absolute hostility.

Really though, the art... I didn't think I'd miss the older one.

I liked the focus on the episode. It was funny to see how much she was hating yaoi only to be into the one about a basketball series...I am actually one who dislikes yaoi also, not to the point where I will slander it...though I did want to rip up those FMA ones in the episode lol. Other than that, I know I tried it in high school, but it really was not my thing. That Kucchi guy is very....obnoxious XD reminds me some someone I know.

The coloring looks more accurate to the original manga, however I noticed the hair is not as detailed as in the first series. It doesn't bother me though. All good :3

New member, she is quite funny. Also noticed the change in the art style, don't really have a problem with it, I think Saki hair looks even better now.

No way, this thread was made by Xinil himself?

Besides that, I found this episode very funny and I appreciate the number of references to anime and manga (that aren't Kujibiki Unbalance). I counted Vinland Saga, xxxHolic, Slam Dunk, and possibly Monogatari.

I don't recall hardly anything about the original series, so I'm going to see if I can skim episode synopses, but hopefully it'll all work out for the best. Alright, the wiki just summed them up in like one sentence each, and the two Youtubers I gave the benefit of the doubt to wouldn't actually talk about the content. So, I guess I'm just going in blind. Luckily it doesn't seem like the show has a ton of plot, so it'll probably be okay.

For as dated as this is, the conversations are still pretty amusing. I wasn't expecting Ogiue to have such blind hatred for yaoi. My initial thoughts are maybe it's because she prefers yuri? I guess we'll see. Nope, she is just vastly embarrassed about her fetish. Well, at least she has one. With her constant push back against doujin and masturbation I was afraid she was going to be some straightedge bore. At least she isn't.

Ohno proudly proclaiming what she masturbates too was probably my favorite moment.

"...Is your mother worried? Would you like us to assign someone to worry your mother?"

So Kuchi ended up joining after all huh? Guess he got over being left singing at the bar lol. I never thought an altercation could lead to someone jumping out a window, that seems like a perfectly rational response. It was so weird hearing Misty's voice use bleeps while talking about BL smut
