Tokage suddenly became one of the funniest characters to watch in this show.

Between the group various training segments and shenanigans, it's kinda amusing how much Ichiko cares about shopping. Just an amusing episode all around again with random humor thrown in again.

Surprisingly emotional episode again.

Poor little Ichiko. She needs a hug. <3

And now it's time to get a million subscribers in six months or Banpai Manor gets demolished. Not really an easy thing to do.

it's time for Ichiko to get her own episode, aww she's just forced to live as a vampire and wants to have precious time like a family, she deserves this world i really want to hug her why does an anime like this have to make me emotional like this damn it.

no face reveal for mother I'm disappointed but at least her voice was revealed in this episode I think she really has an aura as a "mother" I fear...

let's see how Mayopan will get 1 Million subscribers with only half a year, they have to make something that makes the media shocked and viral all over Japan lol.

1 million viewers huh? Well, now they just need to do the impossible. Not quite aa big a gut punch as the Fuu episode, but still tugged on my heart strings. Who turned that kid into a vampire against her will & than abandoned her?!

I know it was her episode and all, but FUCKKK was Ichiko catching strays left and right this episode. She did end up being the one who probably moved Mother into moving the deadline to SIX months to get one mil subs.

This won't be easy... that's for sure.

Paolo from Tokyo did a video last week going behind the scenes with the director of the show and showing how they made Mayopan if anyone’s interested! It was cool seeing one of my faves this season get love from a massive channel!

As for this episode, another surprisingly emotional one! Gained a newfound appreciation for Ichiko as a character! Used to think she was just a silly comic relief character and turns out she’s one of the most thoughtful and considerate people in the show! Making meals for everyone for all this time even though they don’t need to eat, but just to feel that sense of family and community and keep her connected to what was forcibly taken from her.. she’s such a pure angel and deserves the world.

Definitely deserves better than Tokage dumbass destroying the walls and forcing them out the mansion.. it may have just been a place for Tokage, Live and Fu but it’s so much more than that to Ichiko. It’s a place where she found her new family.

It’s good that Mother is pretty compassionate in her own way. Giving the girls 6 months to hit 1 mil is better than nothing and just acts as a motivation to lock in and make some good content. Can’t wait to see what they cook up.

The spooky house...which is in fact the vampires' home base in which Live and the others are summoned because they got caught on public camera, it's all a typical case of alcoholics that ceases Banpai Manor to exist, though they still can continue filming videos. And the one who got the most affected by is Ichiko, despite being the innocent one out of the pack even though she racked up a huge debt.

The realization that Ichiko was a human in the past, being bitten by a vampire and had nowhere to go until she reached Banpai Manor, it's realistically both her second home and family together with Live and the others, so tearing down the manor is a no-no for her, which Masaki almost goes in her stead with the others stopping her. And after a Summer's hot pot dinner, the planning gets underway, and thanks to one of Ichiko's ideas, the vampires get going...dressed as priestesses playing Auld Lang Syne on bells, though that isn't enough to convince Shirayuki that the gang has learned one bit. It's only through Ichiko's childish plea, and by sheer coincidence of Masaki's plea, and the convenience of being MayoPan to create videos, that Banpai Manor is allowed to hold...for 6 months.

For Masaki's blood and Banpai Manor, a million subs in 6 months, it's quite the haste, but by hook or by crook, it MUST be done.

An episode focused on Ichiko was more emotional than I thought it would be. Hearing her backstory in how she became a vampire was sad enough, but it also showed how much Banpai Manor meant to her after being taken in by Live.

So when the threat of the manor being demolished after Tokage got too rowdy with alcohol and smashed the wall of the manor in an amusing fashion, it was nice to see the vampire girls work hard to try and change the mind of their "Mother" with a rather lovely Auld Lang Syne bell performance that I wasn't expecting to hear. Sadly, that wasn't enough, but Ichiko's crying plea was enough to spur everyone to voice their own pleas and, thankfully, it did work out.

Having said that, trying to get to the 1 million subscriber goal within 6 months is a VERY tall order and the girls will have to produce something that'll become a viral hit, but with everyone on board, I'm sure all of them will do everything they can to hit that target.

Overall, a great episode and one where I really appreciate Ichiko a lot more now. =)

They don't appreciate Ichiko enough, such a good girl. The whole mother thing and also Tokage and Yuki are getting quite annoying/repetative. 1 million sub in sixth month is gonna be very hard but possible in anime. Got to know a bit more about vampires and Ichiko. She had regular hair as a human but it changed gradually after becoming a vampire so she's not bleaching it. Maybe having colorful hair is a vampire trait cause the other vampires have very colorful hairs too. Dunno if it means anything though.

Was not expecting Ichiko's backstory to be that depressing.

Still one of the underrated show of this season though, after Makeine recovered and gain traction, this one needs too.

Home , sweet home. So give it your all to stop the demolition of Banpai Manor girls.

Now it's more difficult since they need to achieve it in 6 months.
I need somebody who can love me at my worst
No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth
'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first
And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst

If you stay forever, let me hold your hand
I can fill those places in your heart no else can
Let me show you love, oh, I don't pretend, yeah
I'll be right here, baby, you know I'll sink or swim

I know their bell-ringing performance wasn't exactly moving, but it did surprise me because, like Masaki, we all know how hard it is for those girls to agree or coordinate. It was a very beautiful act, to be honest, and Ichiko's tears hurt. Her story with Bampai Mansion is very touching, and the fact that she treasures that simple act of eating together as if it were a super valuable treasure is charming and adorable. It would have been even sadder if they had shown something about her life before becoming a vampire. I have to say that this time Masaki shone by standing up for Ichiko, but now comes the hardest part: getting 1M subscribers in six months.

It's extra messed up to call Ichiko childish since she's literally forced to be in the body of a child forever now... Turning a kid into a vampire is pretty evil stuff.

Important lore, important character moments, more emotional punches, added stakes, couldn't ask for much more from this episode. I can't help but compare it to episode 4 because that's the one to beat now, but the season is still on the right track I think. By the end I'll probably love all the characters. Maybe even Yuki lmao.

So now the goal is to get to the million subs in 6 months? Welp, better get help from Ninja to achieve this since he wouldknow how to do it... ha.

In any case, 2 things to get primarily from this episode aside from that: how do people become vampires in this world and how much Ichiko actually cares for the rest. Masaki little by little does but in a more aggressive way and at the very least with the stakes at hand we can see the episodes getting more focused.

At the very least that's the expectation so who knows really.

When they started playing handbells…🥹 brings me back to middle school. Ichiko’s backstory is so sad, but I’m glad she has people to eat with now :’) they’re her found family 💗

1 million subscribers in 6 months is crazy. I’m sure they can do it though.

They went through that training arc just to play some bells LMAOOOOOOOO

Now everyone's on board with the Newtube channel as there's a 6 month deadline to reach 1 mil subs now, and that's probably when Masaki's turning into a vampire with the info we got this episode on how humans turn into vampires
