Pretty amusing episode especially with the amount of personalities in this.

Komi looked great with a Santa outfit tbh. I think it was a great way for the anime to showcase almost the entire cast spending their time outside of school together. Komi with that big fluffy toy boy is one of the cutest things I've seen in this show.

Najimi is still entertainment gold material.

Komi’s birthday, oh well not even surprised there was that much commotion about who will sit next to Komi. Though really glad to see all of her friends coming up and giving that surprise party, all thanks to Tadano.

From selecting presents to that Ousama game, guess all of them had more blast than Komi herself lol. Also was that a Code Geass reference, with Nakanaka giving orders to Yamai? Guess it was.

You realize that you are getting old, when you would love to receive that reindeer vase as gift.

Is just sign of a good friendship, to sit on your homie's lap.

Makeru made me think with her present, how a swole Komi would look like. hmmmm.

that was a really sweet episode, I think it is the first King game in media I actually enjoyed, lol at Shinobino's blush, I'm really digging Nakanaka and Yamai's rivalry, it was super funny this episode, Yadano looks pretty cute with her glasses.

Paripi's OP is my favorite of the season but Komi's is probably my favorite ED on both the song and visuals.

How come my boy Katai wasn't invited to the christmas party? What a shame.

Anyways, cute episode as usual. Nakanaka going full Lelouch on Yamai was easily the highlight.

Been waiting for this episode since the show got announced and they did not disappoint!

They did Komi Justice in her Christmas AND Santa gear. *chefs Kiss* Fantastic.

The music during Yamai's scene made it feel like a Shounen and Komi's mother is a Savage. The Kiss was hilarious.

Great episode.

Great episode! Komi's brother really didn't want to go shopping with her xD
It was nice to see Komi get that surprise present! And everyone fighting to sit next to Komi when she finally ended up sitting next to Tadano was great lol

Looking forward to the next episode!

Hah, a Christmas Party with a 2000 yen budget...and today's Christmas Eve...our dear girl Komi needs help ASAP!!!

Komi's brother Shousuke is forced to accompany her to get a gift, and through all the sheer pain and vein, she managed to get one: a woolen scarf...that her brother has to pay for her, HAHA. And to think that Komi's birthday is on Christmas Day exact, everyone convenes in her house for festivities while giving a present to her.

The fight for the right to sit beside Komi is a heated debate for everyone lols, EVERY SEAT MATTERS and only the winner has the right to do so. And what better to do during a party than the King's (Ousama) Game where all tricks come out from the desires of their hearts to get closer to Komi. Nakanaka's Code Geass reference going all Lelouch on Yamai hits hard lols, but it's Shinobino and Chadano's kiss by Komi's mom's interference that is worth it. When it came time to Komi's turn, her order is really simple: everyone be friends. VERY PLEASANT.

Going back in time, Komi's actual birthday on Christmas Day, and Najimi's competition of finding Komi's best present within a 5000 yen budget is underway. Everyone bought some unique gifts (except for Yamai), but Tadano's choice of exceeding the budget as a class collective effort is much better than individual ones. Chadano making the perfect choice, and Komi's message to everyone makes their day better.

A really nice Christmas Day and party.

The episode just begun and Najimi already ordered a party at Komi's house + gifts + budget. Like slow down Najimi but still, happy (advanced)b'day Komi-San.

Nakanaka going full Lelouch Lamperouge on Yamai was the highlight for me.

Love a Christmas episode in April lol, but really I do, this was a great episode, there were a lot of hilarious moments, the king’s game bit was especially great, as well the part where everyone showed off their individual gifts for Komi, Yamai’s was especially great lol. And it looks like the Nakanaka king’s game bit was a Code Geass reference, I loved the bit but too bad I didn’t catch the reference because I haven’t watched that yet lol.

We also got to see Komi’s brother again, which was nice, I like that he’s a lot like her and kept trying to leave lol, but the post credits revealed he can speak normally when he wants, a nice touch. think this might be one of my favorite episodes so far as well, loved seeing a lot of the cast hanging together and having a good time paired with the chaos that comes with Komi lol, we also saw some new characters there that we haven’t been introduced to yet, so I look forward to that.

Lol Komi-san and her brother is forced to go to the mall with her, how cute of a sister-brother time together! Also seems like Komi-san is getting a message from Najimi about Christmas time and Najimi as per usual always invites everyone, well as expected Najimi is everyone's childhood friend, Komi-san got such a huge cat plushie, and aww her hugging it, so cute. Lol so the game is that everyone wants to sit next to Komi-san but not everyone can do that with that size of a sofa and they are sure greedy indeed.

I like how people are still mad about Yamai's presence in the discussion (Well opinions are valid, positive or not) while she's not the only one who is being greedy here in this episode lol. Onemine and Kaede are like Giga chad sisters :> But heh in the end Tadano sit next to Komi and IDK why people here make a big deal out of Najimi sitting next to Tadano when Najimi's gender is Najimi :< So they're playing the stick game and Yamai tried to get the same number stick as Komi-san but failed :P Also, Tadano and Onemine's moment was such a sister-brother-looking moment lol, Kaede made me lose it when she got the king but decided to give up lol, and Nakanaka is in such a mood for her rationality but Yamai outsmarted her :P

I liked it because the episode shows that Tadano finds out the date of Komi's birthday and asks Najimi for help to buy the gift, but this being creates a challenge and in the end everyone chooses the present that Tadano chose and arriving at komi's house there is an argument about who will sit next to komi

It's been a while since we had some spotlight shown on Komi's brother, but it was good to have Komi drag him to the shopping centre in order to get advice on the best gifts to buy for Christmas. It was amusing to see him speed walk away whenever Komi chose some weird or gimmicky gifts at first. XD

Christmas is also Komi's own birthday, so it was nice to see Tadano, Najimi and the other classmates hang out with her in Christmas Eve, where we saw how intense it gets when it comes to choosing who gets to sit where and who is lucky enough to sit next to Komi. Yamai thought she hit the jackpot, but Komi ended up sitting next to Tadano instead.

She was no up to no good again during the King's Game, where she just couldn't decide on what command she wanted to say. Nakanaka went one better by putting on her best Code Geass impersonation and, just like with Lelouch, commanded Yamai with her order, only for it to backfire when Yamai revealed that she had number 9, but had it upside down, which successfully baited Nakanaka.

The rest of the game itself was really fun, but it was also nice to see the behind the scenes in how the idea of hanging out at Komi's place came into fruition, all thanks to Tadano realising what day it was and Najimi's ability to get the other friends from class to join. It was here that we saw how Komi's present, a massive cat plushie, was chosen. It was a sweet way to wrap up the episode. =)

Very cute scenes with Komi’s younger brother. I hope we get to see more of him and their relationship as things go on. The Christmas party game was a fun way of showing off everyone’s personality, though a lot of them are just kind of weird.

This was hands down the best episode. I've been continously smiling for 20 minutes straight and now I don't think I can ever stop smiling, my face is permanently in smile mode now.

Can't desribe how hilarious, wholesome and cute this episode was. This episode was literally the peak of Komi.

One scene stood out for me, that kiss scene and when Tadano said why are you blushing, that just got me soo good, had to pause and finish laughing.

7/5 episode. This season is a 10/10 in my books. Can't wait to watch next episode.

I liked the whole class showcase in informal atmosphere and how easily the crowd mood can do a 180 degrees turn from being super excited to get absolutely devastated. Cat plushie was truly the best gift for that special day. And such beautiful gesture by Shouko to send her thanks to all guests.

P.S.

No plan on 25th dec for Komi. No way! There you go, Najimi fast running announcement for a poor Komi xd.

Bruh look at how adorable Najimi sitting on Tadano lap casually and noone listened to Najimi. Makes me wonder, the thing that was not supposed to be wondering on that case...

If only Najimi gift to Komi was that santa doll, it must be awkward for both of them since its supposed to be their each gift xd. Glad its not that, but Tadano gift which surprisingly being agreed by the whole gang. Sneaky Tadano actually giving birthday present alone and its getting passed by Yamai and Nakanaka without them complaining. Based move, and he's not even doing the grand scheme for the next winter break hangout with Komi. Kneel for the actual king there xd.

Also, Komi brother little screen time actually quite giving a nice impression right at the end, even if he's just saying 'that'. Then yeah, ed really great, its keep ringing inside me xd...

Feels kinda weird seeing a Christmas episode out of season right when Spring is here. Maybe they originally timed it for this to air earlier but had to delay the season, who knows? At any rate, it was still an enjoyable episode nonetheless.

Nakanaka buying an Apple "Digital Tropical" gift card was a mistake, when Komi only has a flip phone.

So they didn't show who she gave that pink scarf to, huh? Or did she just end up keeping it?
