| Loved this one, the efforts to make Iino and Ishigami get along in the first half was hilarious, in the end it was Osaragi pointing out the classic behavior of being mean to the one you like that made it appear they were getting along, the robot voices were a nice touch lol. The highlight tho was the 2nd half, I love to see some of my favorites girl Hayasaka focus this early on, I liked the more seriousness of it too, she was even gonna try to seduce Shirogane like before but failed thanks to the callback of Shirogane’s bad singing lol, but man that was a really nice bit of plot for Hayasaka, love to see that, also Fujiwara backing out when she was told Shirogane was there really got me lol. And man, what a great ED, not only did it call back to the first ED but we also got a bit of Starship Troopers looked like, it might be a coincidence but it looked pretty close, but very awesome visuals all around and a great song to go with it, so far all of Kaguya’s EDs have been amazing and this one continued the trend. |

| Shirogane, Ishigami and Osaragi's meditation section about Iino, hark, put these two together already for their love betrothed from hatred. Though this is the first time that both Shirogane and Osaragi first met, the idea of reconciliation for both Iino and Ishigami is important, what Shirogane came up with was met with absurd criticism lols. From giving compliments to ear cleaning, all the activities being couple-like isn't working out. It really is Osaragi's victory. Shirogane's "networking" activity of karaoke, and Kaguya is OK with it, except if it's a group date as Hayasaka presumed. And since Kaguya hit a snag on her, Hayasaka going in her stead to shield Shirogane from other girls (which looks like a field of only guys and few girls) is a wild joke that impresses as she should. And the role-reversal play of Shirogane, now that's a gentleman. But what happens afterward...probably is the best joke of the episode as both Hayasaka and Shirogane had their own private karaoke session, the ultimate betrayal of the century for making a seducting steal. And who else than to bring for a karaoke session than Chika, that unfortunately Hayasaka is the 2nd person to experience Shirogane's bad singing, which triggered Chika's PTSD from last time, all that effort (in Season 2) was for nothing. Nah, no more singing any more Shirogane. The Starship Troopers ED is sublime, and the 3rd ED is my favourite of the 3. |

joexmdq said: I really like getting more screen time of the best girl Hayasaka! ProofByColor said: Feel like I am forgetting the extent of Shirogane and Hayasaka's relationship. How much does he know of her relationship with Kaguya? What was the deal with her persona that Shirogone just went along with so naturally? Definitely forgetting something here. Shirogane knows two different people: Hayasaka (his schoolmate) and "Haasaka" (Kaguya's maid). Here she is acting as the latter, who previously tried make him fell in love with her because of a bet with -or rather provocation from- Kaguya. Riiiight. Thanks for the reminder. |
| Another fantastic episode, seeing the president so glum that his plan wasn't working was hilarious. The second part was quite thrilling too, I felt soooo fucking bad for president. The guy was getting beat down this episode, I love the guy. It was really nice to see the bond between Kaguya and Hayasaka too. Some random things. I may be remembering wrong but it feels like the animation is wildly different from previous seasons but that might just be the effects of time. It seems like they have a lot of still characters moving around a lot more than I remember. Second, that outro is awesome, I love is so much. Something really special there. The intro is alright but when Kaguya starts running and the visuals change it really picks up. I I cannot wait for the next episode. |

| what an emotional rollercoaster of only a second episode. Getting more Ishigami and Iino duo scenes is always great. Some pretty interesting Iino backstory shown with how she had been covering for Ishigami for already quite some time, even as early as during the massive event that changed Ishigami quite a lot. Even though this duo fight a lot, it's really nice to see them together no matter how hard it is to get them to co-operate. Second half was wild, went from me saying "Oh God Hayasaka why would you say that" to "holy shit more Hayasaka hell fucking yes" then "wait what". Love me some Hayasaka however this time she was dropping some straight facts to Shirogane, even though partially out of spite but arguably having to always be the executer for Kaguya's plans you gotta give her this one. Kaguya's screaming once her imagination went wild was hilarious, she was loosing it so much you could hear her Paimon come out. Fujiwara hyperventilating from being reminded of Shirogane's traumatic singing also got me good. However once again, Hayasaka best girl and i will die on this mountain. The ending theme for this season is probably the wackiest one yet imo. It seems to be a continuation of season 2's ending but now very scifi, starship troopers esc? Either way i love it and has a banger song behind it. |
 "yabe." |
| "YOU TRYNA BE A HERO, FUJIWARA?!" |
| Love to see that Hayasaka was the main focus in this episode, also the effort studio put in ED is very amazing. 5/5 Episode |
 |
| Hayasaka supremacy ED was really cool, love the theme they've had going on with this one and Sentimental Crisis. |
 |
| Oh man this was SOOO fucking good, already out performed previous episode. I'm starting to like the OP now, it's pretty good and the ED is good as well, they put a lot of effort into the ED visuals it seems, that was a really good ED. We found out how Iino covered so much for Ishigami and so they both feel like the other one should be grateful to them, I'm totally shipping these two, looking forward to more developments between these two. The second part was just amazing. It's kinda scary how Hayasaka puts up an act as easily as she breathes. Seriosuly, Hayasaka is a scary woman. Also, for a second there I legit thought Hayasaka has fallen for Shirogane and I was like yabai. Hayasaka's singing was really good, wouldn't mind a full version of that song in her voice. They got both Kaguya and us good during Shirogane's singing/rapping part lmao. I'll have to admit Hayasaka was looking freaking adorable in that look. Truly a 5/5 episode. This season honestly deserves a 10/10. Maybe for the first time the MAL score is the correct indicator of how good a show is. It's painful to wait weekly for this good of an anime. Looking forward to next episode. |

 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| Rare to see an Ishigami and Iino dedicated scene but I'm not complaining this is probably the best one yet and the only one if you just keep forcing them to get along they probably won't get along Okay we're seeing a more dedicated part of Hayasaka this episode god I miss seeing that girl in the spotlight she stands out that well as a side character, Continuing where the bet left off I wasn't that surprised that they actually go that far not like the lewd drawing that Kobachi whipped. |
  |
| Another funny episode. First, Lino and Ishigami were not getting along with each other, and then, Hayasaka goes on to the Karaoke at Kaguya's request. And, then, the misunderstandings. LOL. It was funny indeed. |
 |
| this episode was funny as usual. I loved the ed, it had great visuals. the only problem was it adapted only 2 chapters |
| https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ [WATCH THIS^^^] |
| It was a funny episode :D |
 |
| More Hayasaka episodes are always great, can't wait to see how her relationship with Shirogane continues to develop. Also that ending is definitely worth the watch |

| Honestly it's weird. I remember that this arc (everything after sport festival and right after school festival) in the manga was my favorite. Yet I can't seem to enjoy it that much here, either because of how the latter part of the manga stained my view of kaguya-sama or just because I prefer to binge instead of weekly watch, especially for comedy stuff. I think I'll wait for the anime to finish to binge it. I really hope I'm not feeling it because of the weekly format instead of the manga latter arc having a negative impact on me. It would sadden me to give this a lower score than s1 and s2 when I know the content better. |
| man, this has got to be the best show ever hahaha! i'm stoked that i get to spend all day Saturday to think about and replay this episode in my head hahaha :D :D :D |
| Hayasaka's singing is too cute. She's not my favourite but I'm starting to see why so many people like her. It doesn't seem that long ago when Kaguya had no idea what s*x was. And now she imagines her maid and her "boyfriend" committing infidelity. Character development. |

Either way i love it and has a banger song behind it. You mean season 1? Season 2's ending had the student council members standing on stars in the sky. |
| I’m absolutely amazed by the ed |
 |
| Lesson of the day: don't pissed off Hayasaka... lol Fujiwara having PTSD from teaching Shirogane... my face is hurt from laughing so much and i'm not regret any of it. Wow the ED Animation, wtf is that Starship Troopers? |
 |
| ngl I would definitely watch an anime of the ED |
 |
| Hayasaka is best girl. That is all. |
| Whoa did Shirogane didn't recognize Hayasaki in that disguise? Ya know Kaguya, Hiyasaka and Chika could've just gone to another Karaoke room or another Karaoke place instead of running away from Shirogane? |
| I love the relationship between Iino and Ishigami so I was happy to see operation friendship! I was glad to hear great point of Iino from though I was shocked not to hear great point of Isigami from Iino, I expected to hear that... I suppose Hayasaka ans Kaguya actually get along. Kaguya in last scene looked like Light Yagami lol. She has bad humanship lol |
| Lol, I just read these chapters a week or two ago and the anime made it even more hilarious!!!! Ishigami and Miko are a really good yet funny duo!!! And the whole Miyuki going out with his friends on a "group date" was just so funny!!! Overall a good episode!!! |
| Hayasaca truly delivered the 2nd ep of the 3rd Season!! thet ED visuals was super amazing!! felt like a different show with same characters and Fujiwara wears something that would look like you're bald! BWAHAHA! 5/5! |
 |
| Rap god arc in oming! |
| bruh |
| Super entertaining episode, whole Kareoke thing was done superbly well. I didn’t expect Shirogane singing to be such centre of everything in the end Also new ED is interesting, I heard its Starship troopers reference, haven’t seen that one so can’t say much |
| Oh God, sea slug guts Shirogane fucking killed me lmao. Loved the episode, we are nearing some of my favorite arcs, well, every arc is my favorite arc, can't wait. That ED was fucking incredible man. I am gonna need a full version of Hayasaka singing that "Saka Akasaka" song though. There was lots of foreshadowing here too, like damn. |
 |
| What a beautiful ED we have here! That was stunning. Ishigami and Iino really like a dog and a cat lmao but I like their dynamic. The behind-the-scene supporters. We also got a lot of Hayasaka screen time, yey! Best girl indeed. Ah no, there's Chika already hehe. |
   |
| Ow yeah Hayasaka episode. Well, there is a clear reason for Hayasaka to down into act, but agree with shirogane that her true self is much enjoyable. |
| Poor Hayasaka. She died inside. Chika got some serious PTSD! |

Well the reason they were leaving in the first place was cus Hayasaka got mind crushed by Pres. |
 |
| A nice episode from Kaguya-sama, again. Glad to see that series following the same path since from the start. Iino and Ishigami's energy is very compatible, I hope that we will get more scenes from them. And woah, Hayasaka's voice is awsome. Glad to see that Hayasaka is getting spotlight too, she is one of the good characters (and underrated) But, Shirogane's karaoke was....... awsome. |
 |
| Great episode. Hayasaka's part was very interesting and I enjoyed the comedic parts combined with some more serious bits. I can just tell this season is going to continue with greatness and consistency. I'm really looking forward to the future episodes |
 |
| again a funny episode, love the moment with Hayasaka ^^ |
| Honestly had completely forgotten about everything with Hayasaka's fake identity so I was slightly confused for a minute. Good episode. Marinate1016 said: When it’s all said and done, Kaguya sama is definitely going to be looked back on as a top 2 romcom of all time. Every episode is just so damn funny and goes by so quickly. The karaoke skit had me dying. out of curiosity, what's the other one? |

 |
| An episode that focuses on Hayasaka is always a good thing. And the ED that reference with starship trroopers was fun, We need a 12 episode side-story of it now |
