Not bad this episode. We got to the quiz competitions right away and everyone is trying their best to answer the questions.

I like Fukami's confidence as she answered her questions.
Gakuto stood out again as the most intimidating of these players. Pretty tense episode!

Fukami did great. If she wasn't distracted in the beginning, she could have won.

Gakuto didn't give the other contestant a chance. They were all internally begging him to subtract points from themselves to prove that they are some sort of a threat to him.

Gakuto did really well in round three. He finished in first place so quickly. When that one guy called him an ex-Kaijo kid, Mari couldn't concentrate for a bit. She was wondering if he knows the real reason why her brother quit quiz bowl. With more confidence, she kept on going. She didn't win, but she did her best.

Gakuto kept it short and sweet, what a beast.

I was really hoping for a big comeback victory for Fukami but she fell short. She definitely would have succeeded if she didn't lose her concentration.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

I hope Gakuto will eventually spill the beans and tell us what happenend between him and Fukami's brother. There aren't many episodes left ='(

By the way I think the reason Gakuto left Kaijo may have to do with cheating. Maybe he was tricked or something like that.

This could be so much better if not for Sonohara Akira. Good thing he wasn't in this episode much, but still, it feels like he ruined the show already.

Sasajima is OP, he wrecked everyone else.

Was really nice to see Fukami to try and pass the round, too bad she failed. :(
Koshiyama finally takes on Mikuriya next episode, looking forward to this.

He will probably become too OP in drag, something like increases his concentration and deduction's % by doing his hobby

Wow just wow this was such an amazing episode, i enjoyed it soooo much, even forgot i was watching the same anime. OH for sure the best episode so far. Senpai is toooooooooooo cool and OP, man he just NAILED his competition. Knew all 12 apostles? is there anything this guy doesnt know?
And then his past was so well done, starting with how someone called him out going to another school and then his team asking if its true and another person joining in the conversation and telling them about his brother and how Mari-chan started the quiz because of him and how something happened that made them quiz the team to Mari-chan thinking about it instead of thinking of her own quiz.
Just great execution..

Anyway another props to OP Sasajima. He also handled the situations so well. "There was no need or opportunity to bring his past up"
Mari-chan's battle was pretty emotional. I was rooting for her, for the first time i rooted for someone in this anime, i like how she approached each question and how she buzzing the buzzer.
But then she lost T_T that was actually a great moment.

Oh Sasajima was transferred from Kaijou High to Buzou, that's some revelation.
Ok so why did Akira cross dress in the middle of the competition?

Seconded.....But I love the dynamic between/little backstory for Sasajima and Fukami's brother

I really hope that he comes back to the Quiz Bowl world and goes up against him again

It is nice to see that the students aren't just getting everything right or getting to the buzzer first because when they lose it seems so realistic to how real life would be, and it gives us a chance to watch them grow! Loving this show!

It's a shame that Mari already dropped out, but she put on a good fight.

It does seem like a silly move but I think of it like pro athletes with their die-hard superstitions and personal rituals. It's been scientifically proven that such things can improve a person's performance despite the fact that it changes nothing but their mindset. So for Fukami-san, I think it's not that she can't hear because of her hair, it's that she learned the move from watching her big brother and it's become a ritual that helps her concentrate and get serious.

Sasajima Gakuto proves that he's still very OP!
looks like the rivalry of Gakuto and Fukami's big brother is really a complicated one! such bitterness
Fukami lost but she tried and the other boys was captivated by Fukami's tears!
next episode we finally get to see the rivalry of Koshiyama & Mikuriya!
4/5.
