Heh, Yuna serving as a sort of mentor is kinda cute with those students. They also seems to enjoy her company and being there for them.

I really hope they learned something from Yuna. She definitely made quite an impression and I'm hoping she continues to serve as a role model for those kids.

They still couldn't believe that Yuna was an adventurer with the highest tier kuma. It was an intense fight against Wolf-san (Black Tiger?). Wolf-san lost because it ate a fireball. Yuna realized that the little boy had fallen in love with her. Even though Yuna didn't have the infinity energy skill, she didn't feel tired. Marikusu really fell in love with Yuna. Although Yuna's hand was bitten by Wolf-san, she didn't feel scared. I feel like Yuna is more afraid of getting her kuma gloves dirty than getting bitten by Wolf-san.


The villagers thanked Yuna. Yuna gave credit to the Marikusu and Shia groups. I feel like the design of the village looks strange. The color combination doesn't feel contrasting and looks more like a painting than an anime.

Marikusu wants to join the girls' party, lol. Marikusu wants to apologize to Yuna. Even Marikusu called Yuna by her name. It's a beautiful night, and it's time to part ways with the villagers. A good episode to start this week.

Yuna met the other student guards, but I was interested in Mel. Mel is really sexy and beautiful. They insulted Yuna-san, but they still protected her well.

In the end, Fina still worries about Yuna, even though Yuna is strong and has defeated the Black Tiger. It doesn't rule out the possibility that the Black Tiger is a terrifying monster. A good episode this week.

Another episode with a perfect combo of action and cuteness. :3 I love this show.

Nice fight against Black Tiger.

At least now those kids understands that Yuna is no joke.

"Black Tiger", this reminds me of the "Black Viper" from season 1. Looks like "black" monsters are stronger than the normal versions.

anyway, Yuna showed the kids her power. They have more respect for her now.

the OP and ED are so nice to listen to.

looking forward to next week! :)

The students' expedition continues with Yuna, and with more monsters are on the loose, it'd be wise to be safe than sorry by charging in without knowing what they'll face. And with the goblin rampage, Yuna is only supervising them instead of giving them hints to become stronger. But the goblin rampage was just an entry for something even more dangerous: a black tiger wolf eating the goblins up. Though this is a good chance to showcase their prowess, this is something that only Yuna can do, which basically teaches Maricks that she didn't earn her way through money, but by hard work.

Despite her strong stature, looking back at Yuna's POV while facing the literate situation at hand, it's night and day, though at the end of the day, they were all saved, and the silkworms frighten Yuna quite a bit. Most certainly, Maricks, Timol and Cattleya learnt their lesson not to judge people on how they looked, and the expedition was a success back to the kingdom to report on the trip. The same is for Yuna to Ellalaura, and this would be the first and last time that she is willing to take on a job like this. The students treating Yuna to an after-party, and she's glad to be back home with Fina.

Yuna, you do a job well done.

I'm kinda confuse, is Goblin attack a part of Yuna's plan? Since she doesn't want to end a trip without any obstacle? (Though Black Tiger is definitely not a part of her plan)

Each last scenes Episode always about Yuna and Fina flirting. Those scenes didn't appeared at Manga or Novel.

well, can't say i was surprised to see Maricks gets pulled down a few pegs after witnessing exactly how strong their adventurer escort is. and heck, Yuna's reputation is well-known, other far more "serious" looking adventurers looks up to her with respect and admiration! lol it was funny to see Maricks and Timol to be the first to jump to Yuna's defense when the other student was belittling her.

Marick is a good lad. What I like compared to other fantasy anime with OP protagonist is that they didn't try way too hard to make him a complete douche.

Well this episode made marrick a lot better than the last. He and his buddy were such big assholes to Yuna despite her literally being an accomplished adventurer who was hired to protect them. Moral of the story, don’t judge by appearances. Yuna is a bad ass.

Yuna is still unbearably cute and lovely as ever.
I'm glad there's a Yuna's Perspective which made this episode more fun to watch.
Her monologue or inner thoughts makes it more hilarious with her VA's effort and... I really, wholeheartedly enjoyed it.

P.S. The animation is okay or decent enough but it feels like the budget for this sequel is low, not that I know.
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

The ep itself is fine, though I'm kinda curious. Since the series mostly focuses (only) on yuna, we dont really know how the rest of the kingdom and villages work. It's kind of funny how the other(?) group had not one but two adventurers eh. Though I'm not really sure, anything could happen from now, but I think the OP hints that we're getting even more characters.

Like even back in s1 with the black viper and here with the surprise monster, they would have been screwed if yuna wasnt conveniently there.

It's hard to tell how much based on the framing, but either intentionally or otherwise, the series isnt super focused on the battles, so its hard to tell the full extent of yuna's power compared to the stronger monsters. Though in this (and previous?) battles, her bear suit seems functionally immune to damage.

I was actually expecting there to be a single, and maybe a larger monster, but the background mobs (heh) were basically taken out offscreen.
Kind of weird that we get to see the scenes a second time from yuna's perspective, is that the first time it's happened?

Not sure if its just me but it felt as though the characters looked like they were drawn slightly differently this ep.

It's been so long since the last time (technically it was just? ep 11 of s1 vs the kraken), apparently(?) yuna can just use magic without incantation, or can she? Hmmmm. It was mentioned that she just needs to think of it, soo.

The funny thing is, yuna isnt reincarnated, so she's actually the same age as the students, but she seems way more mature. Though I guess thats just how she is.

EDIT: It's kind of funny how the few times, in fact I think the only time we see yuna not wearing her bear outfit, and its an uh, daydream. I know its part of the gimmick but I do wish she would occasionally wear something else

(S2 doesnt seem super popular for some reason, kind of sadge)

Little odd the flashback to earlier in the same episode, but we hadn't heard Yuna's thoughts on things so that is nice. Pretty good move getting her paw bitten into fireball to the stomach too though I have to wonder what the defense rating is on that armor since teeth usually tear through cloth.

Oh good. I was wondering if anyone was going to mention that.

The show already saves on the budget with very basic backgrounds fancied up with the those wierd hexagon overlays. I wasn't expecting recycling of animation in the same episode though

This whole season so far feels really lazy. Not that this show was outstanding by any means during the first season, but it was at least fun. This season is so far pretty boring with really cliched stories. The repetition of scenes during this episode reeks of budget cutting. I hope it gets better.

This kind of isekai is a change of pace... but man are the kids annoying. And what's with the yuri vibes? it's not like that in the manga (I think)

Just started reading the Manga adaptation, there's so much cut content by the looks of it when comparing the anime to the manga and the scenes are different here and there too. The English translations are a bit behind (88 out of  103)

So Marix, Timol, and Cattleya finally paid their due respects to Yuna, despite her BEARful appearance. I knew some trouble was lurking from what we saw in the end of the previous episode, and I still think this may spell further trouble with other monsters that may turn the tides of this world towards darkness.
But looking at the bright side, Yuna has got some new additions to her fan club and Fina can rest peacefully knowing that Yuna is back home! What adventures await Yuna in the next episode...? Only time will tell!

Cattleya has totally warmed upto Yuna. Yuna finally showed her powers in front of them. Damn, he ended up admiring her. 

Her mind voice is funny. So that was the reason she wasn't attacking that wolf. She wanted its skin. 

This episode was really funny than the first two episodes.

Can't say I blame Yuna for fearing/disliking them silkworms. I mean, worms and caterpillars aren't exactly the most cute looking things. Now imagine if those were big as those encountered by Yuna, yikes.

I've seen the 'students don't believe how powerful the MC is and have to be shown' trope quite a few times now but it has never felt like it took longer and was more obviously telegraphed.

It took Marics 5 seconds to change his mind to overly respecting her, so there wasn't even much payoff or character development, which was a wasted opportunity. They definitely had time in the Episode to explain why Marics or Timol couldn't accept that Yuna was an adventurer, perhaps due to their experiences.

Instead we spent a whole episode on this very obvious lesson, and on top of that got a lengthy recap of scenes only minutes before, with a lot of repeated lines, just to hear Yuna's thoughts which were not worth the length of the recap imo.

I like the series but this episode was a right stinker.

I love how self-aware this anime and Yuna is. The first episode this "bear themed" anime shows bears getting curbed stomped, and has Yuna reminding everybody that bears IRL attack people, and don't understand people like these fantasy bears do. This episode shows Yuna's perspective of cringing internally at stuff she says, and siding with the guy who everybody turned on just for one remark disparaging Yuna's bear costume. Also Yuna doesn't even know who those adventurers are, and says it to them instead of trying to be cool and playing along. I like how Yuna and the anime don't get full of themselves.
