| A ninja showing up in this anime is the most Shy thing ever. As expected, Teru gets along with Ai even though she is nervous as always. Jokes aside, Teru is still making friends despite her shy personality. At this point, I think regardless how much she progresses as a character, it's always going to be part of her trait. Ai seems much more confident and with some unique skills, could prove to be a decent friend and ally. |

| I definitely prefer this show without seeing too much of those edgy villain characters. These first three episodes have been very enjoyable. Ai is such an endearing girl. It was nice to see her enjoying some good time with Teru and Iko. I always love Teru's cute reactions. :3 |

| Ai coming from a family line of Shinobi, it defintely caught both Teru and Iko caught off guard. But more than likely, she's rather weak in spirit after being chased by Tokimaru, the ninja assigned to her as a princess, who's very sheltered and someone who longed to experience the outside world for herself, alongside her Purity Heart Blade katana. But for the blade to assist Ai in reading who Teru is, this is a power that she only has in finding out the hero that would help her deal with Amamaririku, aside from a weak heart constitution...and staying in Teru's place...because heroes help the innocent in need. And that's what happened Ai forces her way into Teru's place, though trying to make dinner is a yes, calling delivery is a no-no for her due to her shyful anxiety. Thankfully, Ai is a rather skilled cook who's able to provide for Teru, though God knows how long that Iko has fancied time between Teru and Ai enough to have an impromptu girls' sleepover. Indeed, Ai ran away from her ninja village to confront someone within Amamaririku...which is another her? This Utsuro girl definitely must be watched, who acknowledges Stigma and what he's after. Ai's special ED is a rather cool one. |

| This new girl Ai seems to be pretty strong, maybe about the same level as Shy? I was surprised to hear that she knows about the Amamaririku group so I think she will end up teaming up with Shy when they confront them again. Btw, the girl shown at the end with Stigma, I'm not sure if she's a "clone" or something like that of Ai but I think she'll be another formidable foe. |
| Shy Mondays always pick up my mood! Really cute episode, I loved seeing Ai and the girls gradually become friends and we finally got some set up for this new arc/why Ai is in town. Kind of a classic sheltered princess trope going on with Ai, but it’s understandable she wants to get out of the village and see the world. Living life cooped up and hidden might’ve been the thing centuries ago, but it’s a new day and time and time for the shinobi to modernise. Also, she probably feels personally responsible for what Utsuro is getting up to with Stigma and wants to join the fight herself. Getting some major ship vibes from Ai and Tokimaru as well, love how she goes all tsundere when giving him some extra food she cooked lol. Classic princess bodyguard-princess romance. Shrimp-san having a shrimp pizza commercial on the tv behind him is crazy 😂 and it looks like that’s just stuck on the tv too? Is that their wallpaper lmao. Teru being too socially awkward to order pizza is so cute 😭 luckily Ai was able to whip up a nice meal for them because heaven forbid you let Teru order and mess up lol. Looking forward to getting more of the story with Ai and Utsuro, as well as some more cute moments with the girls bonding. Ai is really cute and I love her accent! |

| God I love Mondays now, Shy and Mayonaka punch are easily the best things airing this season. (Yes I like them both more than oshi no ko and the show with the Russian girl). I'm really starting to like Ai from this episode, I feel like we got a real look into her personality and she's a lot of fun, the ninja dudes pretty cool too. That scene with Ai's blade just leaking all of Teru's info was hilarious and the ordering food scene was funny af. obviously Ai was looking for came to find Teru but I honestly thought she knew Teru was the one she was looking for and was just playing dumb. But I guess she never knew and Ai's all seeing katana spoiled it for her. getting introduced to Utsuro and seeing Stigma again was great, I really like the design on Utsuro's katana and Stigma's creepy as usual. I absolutely love the villains in this show cause they have such a weird and unsettling aura to them. I remember from season 1 how they'd always use really creepy art to portray stigma and his group and I hope we see more of that. (I'm not even gonna try spell out the actual group name) I have a feeling this situation could be similar to pesha and her mother. But idk if Ai and Utsuro are related, She never mentioned having a sister so I think Utsuro is like a clone of her or something. I wonder if Teru is gonna get a fire sword this season, The KV shows her with a katana but I wonder if she will mix it with her fire powers. |
| Mostly useless episode. I mean I get it, trying to build up a feeling of friendship before the twin reveal, but it just felt so dry and forced. Talking to the sword was fun though. |
 |
| Could someone remind me, please, what's with Teru's parents (or at least whether they were mentioned somehow in S1)? I don't really want to rewatch S1 just for that. |

| oh damnn tennouji is beauty |

| @LessThanAnimeFan I remember some flashbacks with her grandpa and a funeral that Pesha attended, i think her mother? |
| Waifus only represent ideals |
| Really liking Ai, interesting character and she's pretty. So after Pepesha's mother we now have Ai's dupelicate. Interested to know more. We even got some fanservice and Ai looks alluring wearing Teru's clothes. Teru though lol, can't even order pizza. New ED was nice. |
 |
| I am slowly warming up to this series as a whole. I am digging Shy as a character. I do think if you don't compare it to MHA and Boochi, you will be able to enjoy this more. I liked this episode as it felt mroe focus than the last one. |
| I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon. |
| Very good episode! Things are getting tense and interesting. Now I'm really curious to see what will happen next! Especially when so many heroes are involved. |
| She is so fucking beautiful it's unreal. |
 |
| Ai's sword being able to read minds is a neat way to catch her up to speed. It seems Stigma is at it again by once more stirring the pot of family drama. He sure knows how to make hearts weep. |
 |
| Kind of felt like Ai-chan was trying to seduce Teru a bit lol |

| Heartblade purity had some interesting abilities. Good bonding episode with the 3 girls. |
