It was a pretty fun recap.
Reigen and his narration makes the whole thing pretty hilarious but they went through most of the lit moments of the series.

The parts where they replaced some of the characters with Reigen was just pure gold. XDD
Reigen, the true con-man. xD

The final part where the fabrication level decreases as he reads the book was epic.

Kinda sad they never played the ED. :(

They announced S2 at the very end of the episode, really looking forward to it and I hope Bones makes it just as good as the first.

Lmao at Reigen's head just being shopped onto everyone. I wasn't expecting Shou too, somehow.



I'm surprised Teru didn't kick Reigen's ass for taking his fame.

Also the foreshadowing to next season, esp. the separation arc, hngngnggg im so excited

A very EXTRA(TM) way of announcing S2 *claps* lmaooo

I can't remember where I read it from but it seems that S2 will be done by the same people who did S1, bless

The Meme version of recap, lololol... Ingenious!

On side note, I'm hoping (and confident) that season 2 is just as great as season 1, with all the material arc they have in hand. And based on experience in anime shows with completed manga as base, are most likely will becomes a great series :D

Damn, when OP started, i even cried a little. Somewhat nostalgic, summer 2016 was a good time, and MP100 was a big part of it. Good recap episode, now i don't have to watch it again to be prepared for S2

Extend summary of one hour, with a mixture of humour, of the first season!!!
If you watched the first season, and you will watch the second, it´s very recommended you watch this summary, because will enjoy and will remember !!!
Reigen never changed, how he altered all the situations was hilarious!!!

It was okay. I'm not a fan of recap episodes in general though. This one was one of the better ones, but still doesn't change the fact its a mostly a recap. You'd be better of re-watch the series as a first time watcher or just want to re-watch it entirely.

The recap was hilarious to say the least. At first, I was kinda reluctant to watch it because of what it was, a recap... but how could I forget that it was Reigen the narrator... silly me xD I almost forgot how funny and bigmouthed he was/is.

At the end, it was a good way to remember what happend in season 1 and now, I'm really looking forward to watch the upcoming new season!!

i just watched the anime,so i didnt feel the need to watch a recap,but i took a look at the new content and there is actually about 10 new minutes of it(which is basically a mini story),2minutes at the beginning of the video and 8 at the very end,so i recommend if anyone just watched the anime like i did to simply watch those 10minutes,as they are entertaining :)

Shishou writing a book and telling us about what he do, and mix of recap (cut to the points) of first season and new things. Wow, in his story, he persuaded the enemies and defeated that masked man... And he's not happy with the completion.

I guess Mob's friends weren't impressed with Reigen's fabricated version and decided to change it up.

The look on his face was priceless though, I wish he'd stop exploiting Mob sometimes, damn he even paid him with a single slab of meat what a ripoff.

Nice recap, because some scenes I forgot them.

Wait what? So this was supposed to be a recap? If it is then it's the best recap ever xD

It was great to see some of the best fight scenes from the last season but obviously how it all happened this time, not that bs that was shown to us in the first season xD Reigen is the real hero haha

I missed this so much! It felt so great watching this ova.
And i'm so glad they announced a 2nd season.

Damn, this is of the the very few recap episode/movie that was actually legitimately intriguing and an entertaining watch!

Reigen really is a over-the-too hilarious character and this episode just showcased that in brilliance! Lol, I knew he’d come up with the idea of writing a novel after he called Mob right after watching that idea from television. Ritsu figuring this out from the very start was cho-very hilarious to me for some odd reason. xD, him inserting his face into the different characters to take their credit was super hilarious. Some really good comedy!
Anyway, the fight scenes and the animation in general was top notch just like series and that’s just superb to have! Sound Department of the show really blended in astonishing with the scenes, and the VA was pretty top-notch too! It really helped me to remember a lot of the events of Season 1 too, all in all great stuff! Damn, the reveal though, there’s your good news Reigen! Loved the way it was announced nevertheless with the creative display.

Can’t wait to see Season 2 Episode 1, which incidentally is just under 2 days from now!

And this one just managed me to hate Reigen, tyvm
Tbh the whole series made me angry many times n half the episode lengths but this was just overkill
At least it ended okay-ish but still 2/10 for the rest
6/10 for the main series tho, has its decent parts n great animation but isn't all that good despite having good bits
Not going to pick it up again, not thanks; way too much agitation

I love it when recaps actually go through the effort to make something new out of what is essentially just a compilation of past events and this one was the most impressive one I've seen so far.

I planned to watch this before starting the second season because it has been quite some time since I've watched the first and I'm very satisfied that I decided to do so. They cleverly recollected most of the important parts of the anime in a pretty clever and cohesive way by making a whole new plot made specifically with the nature of the show and the notion that this is a recap in mind.

It was both jarring and amusing to see Reigen forcibly inserted into most of the scenes only for all of his modifications to be reversed the moment he started reading the revised copy. Sasuga, Bones!

This was a great and hilarious way to make a recap of the first season's recap I must say! Really liked that and it was quite great to see, a good revisit for the second season!

All in all it was a great recap I must say!

Seeing there is a second season, it's time to watch this recap

I like how Reigen is bending what has happened in his favor and how terrible edited he is in every scene ''he'' won a fight

Too bad the book didn't capture the real person Reigen is, Mob should have never listened to his friends advice
