Damn, some of these guys knows how to play with the buzzer. Like, clockwork.

This episode felt intense for the first half. Akira Sonohara is also quite an imitidating character imo, definitely someone to watch out for.

Koshiyama managed to make it to the next round thanks to Akira's ruthless tactics. I felt sorry for the other participants. The president of his club snapped but he was able to fool him.

Akira Sonohara thinks the quiz bowl is just a game. Him and Koshiyama were able to win because Akira found a loophole in the rules and exploited it. He is ruthless. The guys that went to the arcade are going to do their best not to lose to him.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

I didn't realize we needed a psycho character to stir things up - this one really was the best episode so far. And Akira is also best grill material.

Akira's tactic probably should have counted as cheating but since there was no specific rule against it, it was technically allowed.....well, it helped them advance to the next round, even if the way they got there was a bit underhanded. His style of play is very unorthodox, but it adds an interesting new element so I'm kind of happy his club president fell for his fake tears and let him continue.
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.

Akira sure is a crafty one, using his methods to get ahead.

I understand what the characters mean when they say Akira treats Quiz as a game but technically it is a game so they should probably find a better word for that.

Akira has the same voice actress as Magane from Re:Creators. And they share the same personality as well.

The yaoi was strong this episode. Many lols at the BL buzzing comment.

I don't dislike Akira, in fact, he made the episode a lot more interesting.

Finally someone having fun with the rules of the quiz game and not taking everything super seriously. Playing with the meta. A lot of sports anime act like whatever sport its about is the most important thing in the world, naturally, but its a bit more ridiculous to me with quiz bowls.
