Amazing episode!! I was waiting for this moment!! I'm glad it didn't disappoint :)

They even copied the whole light thing from the Manga XD

Sumika is a wonderful!! If Ayahi Takagaki indeed voiced Amazing grace (which she does sound like it), then she's such a amazing actress!!!

Next episode is going to be crazy!! Going to really test Yumemite on what it means to becoming a Hollywood Actress.

Going from 0 to 100 in singing doesn't sound great, you need a good build-up. She may be able to reach beautiful high notes, yes, but god please don't change the pitch all over the place. It also doesn't help that this girl has one of the ugliest hairstyles of the entire cast on top of being a grade-A Madonna bitch who doesn't appreciate her fans. I don't particularly care for Yumemi, I just really don't want this girl to win

I was disappointed as well when the President's gamble had that anti climatic ending.

The vocal performance was amazing. I totally wasn't expecting something like that.
Yumemite got totally destroyed there. :o

As much as I don't like Kakegurui as a show... that was one of the best song performances I've ever seen in an anime. It's so rare to hear stuff like this in anime, period. I'm so used to just getting catchy pop songs (which are fun and all, don't get me wrong), but this kind of pure vocal talent is rarely seen in anime, let alone in English

Very impressive

I hate to be that kinda of guy but if you dislike the show then why are you watching the second season

I would normally be the person asking those kind of questions too, but well this is one of those rare shows which I find bad more in the sense that it frequently triggers me but despite that it's not actually boring. So I still sort of enjoy it, it's just very bumpy lol

Yumeshite deserved that trouncing. I honestly think that her idol character and gambles don't do much for the show. That said, that amazing grace performance was awesome.

Right now, it's a pretty boring 2nd season and this is, for now, the most boring episode by far. Nothing interesting happened yet again, just a rehash of something we already saw, so much so that I actually fast-fowarded half of the episode. The idol stuff is boring and I don't undertsand why the show decide to give more screentime to the idol girl, a character who should have been forgotten a long time ago. The "amazing grace" song was atrocious but no fault to the singer, I just hate that song. Only good part was the end with good old trolling. Hope this season pick ups because I really consider dropping it.

get any one with decent voice and technique to sin Amazing Grace and they will sound heavenly. I say it was a good choice of the song more than anything else.

Ah, a performance gamble between Yumemite and Natari. Yumemite obviously will lose, goes without saying... Good episode.

Runa announced the first ten places. Rin and Sumika retired from the challenge with Kirari. Natari (Sumika's real identity) appeared and challenged Yumeko, Yumemi suggested to do performances for votes, so they decided that's gonna be the two against Natari. The performances started in round 1/3 and Natari beated them down. Ririka has been following Mary trying to be parterns, she suggested to gamble to decide.

Aaaaaaaamaziiiiing grace, hahaha, that scene was funny. It was surprising that the creepy girl is actually a super star and can do a performance challenge, also has the needed money to buy the watchers, in case that she paid them. I'm excited to watch Ririka and Mary's challenge.

Great episode. I like the fact that the idol girl got one-upped by a professional actress. Now we just need to see how Yumeko will carry the team to victory :)

How in the world are so many people enjoying that wet dog singing of Grace? (if anime girls are usually kinky cats sounding - like the opening of 1st season - this woman sounded like a wet dog for me). How ironic for the actress, I prefer 100x that dancing of the girls with pleasant and cheerful music just as she said over her whatever she calls it to make it sophisticated.

Wow, this actress is ugly as shit.
Does anybody actually believe that japanese actress can be famous in Hollywood? Hollywood doesn't care about asian actors, especially Engrish speakers.
Oh, what's the point, the episode was boring anyway. Although, i'm interested in Ririka x Mary dynamic. This is actually most interesting story arc of this season so far.

Goated song performance lmaooo. Would love to see where this goes.

I don't really mind this idol thing, if anything, it gives Yumemi her time to shine like an idol...

An overall good episode. I really like this little team work/alliance Mary and the Vice President have. I cant wait to see more of what they do.

Yumemi the idol from season 1. Im happy shes back i kinda like her. I cant wait to see more of her gambling match. I HOPE SHE WINS.

This episode wasn't all that intense throughout most of the episode but was definitely impactful at the tail end with those powerful vocals. This was a solid setup episode but not too impressive. Definitely slightly better than the previous setup episode earlier this season :)
