@Marinate1016 Brah !!! You are quoting me after changing the original comment 😑 You know very well what I am talking about.

@ZXEAN Don't waste your time with that other dumbass, yeah @Marinate1016 I'm talking about you.

I remember that other dumbass in the Ragna Crimson forum, he was clearly wrong about something regarding that franchise, me and another guy corrected him about his misunderstanding because unlike that idiot we actually read the manga and we are way more informed than him, and instead of engaging us or admitting that he was wrong about his misunderstanding, he complained like a sissy and blocked us like the loser he is.

And I see him having that same attitude in this thread, what a fucking idiot.

@xZabuzax I see that Marinate person on so many threads and they seem to be always stirring the pot and acting like a cliché Twitter user. Why people continue to engage with them is beyond me.

I'm going to assume the whole "my world used to be grey, but thanks to you, it became so colorful" is a Bottom Tier Character Tomozaki-kun reference and I won't be convinced otherwise.

Putting that aside, not a fan of this new character thus far. He's too cringe to be real. He is somehow worse than Aira, and she is already borderline too cringe to be real either. Hopefully they tone down their personalities a bit in the future. They can still be goofy characters without being so over-the-top that it totally kills the believability of their characters. Also, even if he's supposed to be super handsome, having every girl in their class but Momo fawn over him was just dumb. There's just no way every girl would react like that given his behavior. I don't buy it as being for comedic purposes either. It's just lazy character writing. I honestly wish he really was a suave ladies man that had some major flaw like being a complete scaredy cat to see the duality between those two personalities as he hits it off with all the other women while Momo blows him off for being useless any time trouble shows up. Would have been much better than being super cringe and seeing women fawn over that while I roll my eyes out of my skull as Momo is somehow the only sane girl in her class.

In theory, I don't mind the whole love rivals/triangle trope being used, but I don't think this series should use it for long given how obvious it is that Momo and Okarun like each other. Momo's classmates heard in this episode that they are a thing from Momo's friend AND everyone already knows they were found naked together in the hallway. Dragging it out too long will just become obnoxious.

Unlike other commenters I'm not bothered by the lack of an overarching story/plot progression yet. It's still very early in the series. Focusing on developing the characters and their relationships to each other is much preferable to me than focusing on pushing forward with the plot at the expense of character development. Let Okarun get his balls back and then see where things go next. Plenty of long running shounen series either don't have the main plot introduced that quickly (Bleach, AoT, etc.) or only have a token Macguffin end goal introduced that early on (Naruto, One Piece, etc.).

The comedy remains pretty solid imo, but Aira and Jiji could ruin it if they aren't scaled back a bit.

This series is the one I most look forward to watching every week and today was no exception. Been a fun ride thus far. Hope it continues going strong with the last episode and in future seasons!

Ok episode. Momo's lines are still annoying me most of the time. I don't care for her voice and the masculine thing they're trying to do with her. The grandmother is pretty one dimensional too. Seems like this new guy is also going to be one dimensional, and so far I don't really care for him and can see him getting annoying quick. On one high note, I am glad that Okarun and Momo's feelings are being developed and explored. This should keep things interesting at least.

I love Jiji already, he's a bundle of joy who isn't afraid to say what he’s thinking lmao. He also acknowledged his past mistakes and apologized to Momo for his past actions which shows his maturity. I'm not worried about him getting in the way since it feels like his introduction is giving Okarun the motivation to confess his feelings to Momo eventually, plus the heartfelt moment between the mannequins.

Okarun inspired by a mannequin love story? Maybe this is foreshadowing of a confession (hopefully) in the next and last episode.

Jiji seems to be a chill cool guy overall, liking him so far. but have a feeling hes gonna be the third wheel/triangle creator which i will not be a fan of. I doubt he will be able to cause any dent though. Okarun and momo are solid.

okaruns self esteem keeps taking a hit. Jealousy in love being a new thing to him as well
But he doesnt really need to worry tbh at all and momo keeps reassuring him of that.

Also thanks to our boy taro who shows okarun that never give up attitude in love and Okarun gets the boost he needed.

One more episode left.

Eh, so far I'm not a big fan of this new character Jiji but as others have said I don't think Okarun has much to worry about plus there's always Aira who is also into him.

If that weird looking mannequin thing does have Okarun's other ball I wonder if he will gain more power in his ghost form once he gets it back.

@StallionXD We need a chad version of Jiji to complete the picture, lol.



In all seriousness, this episode was way too goofy, and I'm someone who enjoyed the unapologetic craziness in prior episodes.

Jiji... is certainly an acquired taste. I see that I'm not the only one drawing comparisons to Zenitsu, but I personally don't dislike him nearly as much. While they're both cringe, my biggest issue with Zenitsu is his unapologetic cowardice, something that's apparently not an issue with Jiji.

I was kind of expecting a bit more thrilling but this episode wasn't bad overall. The subliminal messaging given in this episode is interesting to pick up as it shows the direction for what I expect out of a character, in this case Okarun. The childhood friend guy caught me off guard as I thought he'd be a bit different but then again I think I'll get used to him. Now that they found the second "golden ball", I wonder if Okarun will continue his adventures with Momo (but I think he definitely will) and if the show will ever show his parents.

This episode went by way too fast as usual lol

It looks like they might get the second golden ball back soon. Maybe. If they removed the golden ball, would it make that mannequin thing lifeless? I feel like it would, although that doesn't explain why Hana is possessed.

Just one episode left... Right? There's supposed to be just one episode left but is that right? They're going to the cursed house next episode and wrapping things up there? I don't want this to end! :'(

This is probably anime of the year for me, along with maybe DeDeDeDe, although that show really lost me towards the end, and nothing else really comes to mind off the top of my head. This year felt kind of underwhelming apart from this show and DeDeDeDe.

Jiji is very goofy and eccentric after seeing the way he acts around Momo. He had me laughing a good amount of times, with his school introduction being the best part from him. XD

Poor Okarun was struggling to deal with the revelation that Momo used to date Jiji in the past and his daydreaming of her does show how much he cares for her. It does make me want to root for him to grow more as a character so that he can be more confident in himself, which I do hope that'll happen in the future.

The other main talking point of this episode was the amusing anatomy dummy chase scene and it was very entertaining. I'm glad that they brought back the awesome remixed classical song from episode 4, which helped here as the chase got more wild. In the end, we got to see the dummy rescue a female dummy from a landfill site and their romance was surprisingly wholesome.

With that, there's only one episode left. With how popular this series has become, I can easily see a second season being made in the near future.

@Marinate1016 Could you be any less self-aware?

I'm not the one getting a half dozen different people flaming me for stirring shit up, saying stupid shit, gaslighting people by editing your comments they respond to, or making ignorant claims on this thread. That's you. You are the person everyone else is saying is a chore to deal with because you are unwilling to engage in any kind of thoughtful manner with them. You just dump your shit everywhere and when people complain about the smell you get mad and block them over it.

It's juvenile behavior. Grow up.

Damm Okarun's got some competition for Momo. Poor Momo though getting this confused. Jiji's a bundle of energy huh. His plight and the effort it had on those that tried to help him solve it though was damm harrowing. His base attitude though is damm annoying. The human body structure model coming alive and running around was quite the shock. He sure had quite the tenacity to run as well. And for a pretty good reason as well turns out.

Honestly this was a great episode. We learn more about Jiji and some more relationship development between the group. I've enjoyed Dandadan's run and with the final episode so close, it might be time for me to move to the manga.
