I think it's kinda interesting to hear Uramichi's inner thoughts about society, his own life, and how his efforts can be awarded.

> Jerminator

Lol, this show has a funny way of advertising itself. That's probably the most amusing way I've seen an anime show the importance of washing hands.

It's back to work for the Oniisans...albeit with one person who's unlike the rest; Iketeru being the "Jerminator", and Uramichi being the "Bacterian"...still in the adult world where the children are quite self-aware for entertainment and teaching the importance of hygiene. Uramichi really got hit hard by Tobikichi who can't seem to digress hitting his toe on objects.

Uramichi getting approached by God marketeers, but can't get his life right. Saya-chan asking Uramichi to draw PreCure characters...and it's even worse to draw girly characters buff. Tobikichi gettgin rekted by Uramichi is the icing on the cake.

The pretty despondent Uramichi having an introperspective of his own life, and Tobikichi trying to prank him, but failed greatly. And going back to Jerminator vs. Bacterian, the same afflictions ensue.

Would like to try the post-credits psychology test for myself and see how it's like! Nothing turns out good for Uramichi anyways.

Another great episode for us and another normal day for Uramichi Oniisan. The battle between Jerminator and Bacterian was something else. Iketeru Oniisa didn't hold back on him, at least in the first fight, the second one was completely different. LOL. Also, gotta say Iekteru Oniisan's drawings are really good in comparison to Uramichi Oniisan.

I love how Usahara gets in trouble with Uramichi Oniisan every single time. It's like he's there for that only reason. LMAO. Also, I feel bad for Oniisan every time he tries to do something good but something worse happens to him. He's literally dying inside. It's hard being an adult.

New corner is teaching health using sentai by brothers? Singing brother says sorry to main character afterwards.

Religious sales people and he doesn't believe it. That's how dark he is. "Believing"

The kid was told main guy is good at everything, by Rabbit guy. He was forced to draw. Precure in that bird form. Singing brother could draw just seeing it for the first time?! Wow~

It seems like staff likes his drawing (though kids hate it), and gave him extra drawing work. Oh, that's for his new corner. And it already appeared in ED. lol~

Even the psychology test shows how dark he is.

Today's episode was entertaining as well. I'm loving this series.

At least, Uramichi tried with his art..Society can be very disappointing with expectations all the time..

I love the direction of comedy the author put this in.

I know my comments are getting redundant, but Iketeru-oniisan is too awesome, this time drawing so well.

Uramichi for the most he may not like his job, but he do his best to not disappoint the kids.

At the reaction scene of Uramichi-oniisan drawing I had to pause, because I choked while eating.

If I was to break down KiraPure would be. By name Kira Kira Precure A la Mode, and Tamayura more Agressive. And by design Mahou Tsukai Precure comes to my mind.

wasn't really a fan of the op at first but im fully jamming onto it now

uramichi are one of those fucks who have flawless skin despite only washing their face with a bar of soap that kinda pisses me off somehow ..... BUT ANYWAYS ! YO uramichi and iketeru in thigh high boots the outfit itself was awful but idc ill take it

ngl i was really looking forward to the "do you believe in god?" part because that cracked me up real bad in the manga and i didnt laugh at all here but the anime original scenes after the ed was really nice

Definitely the strongest episode so far, with little additions like the kids reacting to the adults' antics adding so much to the formula to make it more interesting. That segment of Uramichi doubting himself and everything around him distorting was an excellent touch as well and probably the best of the show's serious beats about Uramichi's life so far.

That was an odd way to teach kids how to wash their hands by having Uramichi and Iketeru throwing balls at each other. Gotta love those Seven Day Adventist folks knocking on your door to talk about God, Uramichi just ignored them. Poor Uramichi's drawings are the manifestation of how depressed he feels as a person. I thought his animal drawing was a dog too.

damn, that episode was more depressing than funny lol, gotta feel bad for Uramichi. I wonder how much of the more seriousish side it will explore, this could end up being a Kakushigoto type situation where the comedy was pretty lacking but the other parts were golden

Curious as to how far (if at all) they'll go into Uramichi's past

Uramachi punching Tokibichi in the beginning and Utano's laugh in the beginning were already funny enough. Loving this anime.

Urmachi's inner feelings are interesting. It's a dark comedy show but they still teach you something about adulthood.

Tokibichi's reactions whenever Uramachi stares at him gives me the chills (in a fun way)

Jerminator vs Bacteria was pretty fun, they always messed up the names lol.

Currently watching this for Iketeru's character alone. The overall humor isn't really "funny" and though I have had lows in my life, I can't really relate to the struggle of these characters.

Man, Uramichi really needs a W right now. He just keeps getting kicked while he’s down so you really feel for him. This episode was more serious than the last one, but I still chuckled somewhat frequently. The part where Usahara stubs his toe and has to pull it together for the show was hilarious.

I had low expectations for this as a comedy show. After watching three episodes, I think the show really is more about presenting Uramichi's adult routine and beliefs, and then putting in the kids for contrast which makes for excellent irony, rather than trying to be funny every minute with forced jokes. And to be honest, I like it.

A very refreshing take on the slice-of-life/comedy genre, despite the potentially depressing themes.

That's actually good if you can't relate to their struggles lmao. I think I can sympathize with Uramichi due to my periods of intense burnout, when I was just tired of everything for a solid 2-3 months.

And yeah, I don't think the main theme of the show is trying to be "funny" (i.e., by throwing jokes very often). It relies more on contrast and irony for its humor.

That test. Its shows exactly how messed up this Uramichi Onii-san. Still, i feel bad he didn't get the reward he needed with that all-nighter effort. The ball, never expect its from the ed. Kids should've cheer him already instead of whispering behind them all xd.

Great episode! Probably the best one so far. I am glad that it's not getting super repetitive and I hope it stays that way. This episode was leaning harder on the depressive side though especially at the end lmao, poor Uramichi. The Bac- Jerminator vs Jerm- Bacterian segment was hilarious and the kids this episode were gold with their comments. Looking forward to the next episode.

This new segment... those costumes... those will definitely make an adult look at themselves and wonder where life went wrong haha Uramichi didn't even get his win in the end cause they re-shot the segment haha

This anime has actually done some good imo - in the comments section I always see other people who can relate to and are going through the same thing as Uramichi and it makes me feel like I'm not alone.

This show keeps on giving. The dreadful experience of knowing that you are wasting your life away and not knowing how to stop it is maybe one of the main catalysts of our crisis when we get into adulthood, and it captures it well. The drawings are fantastic, at least doesnt stop being funny for me and they changed the things a bit in terms of the elaboration. The KiraPure ad was hilarious too

Its pretty interesting hearing all of uramichi's thoughts and his troubles, they seem like they could be relatable to some people. I do enjoy the humour in all the eps and i have high hopes for the rest of the show

Uramichi's drawings were surprisingly pretty entertaining

The end credit scene really summaries all of uramichi's problems

The children's reactions are one of my favourite things about the show

Uramichi Onii-san has been anime of the season for me so far. It has great comedy and the contrast between the dead inside Uramichi and the cute kids makes it even better. Tho sometimes, it just hits too close to home.

okay I know this is supposed to be a kids show and I know many people hate shippers but hear me out
Uramichi oniisan x Iketeru oniisan ship ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ
I was hoping for a ship between them when Iketeru first showed up but then when I watched ep 3, in that one scene where Iketeru saves Uramichi from the awkward situation with children I knew that was my sign to start the ship ๐Ÿ˜ค
whoever agrees with me let's appreciate this cute ship together pls ๐Ÿ˜ญ

And just what is Tobikichi's beef with Uramichi X)? At least he gets punishment though :p

This episode was more darker than the previous ones.

That test was so ridiculous.
“Home, Man, Woman and Animal” It's obvious that most of the people would draw one house but it's true that the size can vary and most of them would draw the Man and Woman with some distance since the way that guy said it sounded like all of these should be drawn separately.

And to me Uramichi's dog did look like a dog tho. Also Uramichi's drawings are so abstract and meaningful cuz his thoughts and feelings are portrayed quite nicely in those drawings. Since I can't draw without a reference picture, I really like his drawings. In my opinion this is the kind of creativity that makes one a true artist. Iketeru is the only one who could appreciate his drawings.
