What's with the cat? Lol..

Looks like the second half of the series is going full comedy again. Hajime is fun as hell to watch though. "Nanbaka is a comedy" is a rather fitting title so far.

ok I'm glad this got another season but it feels like it's starting off like the first season did IDK maybe it's just me but it feels that way. I find it weird that it has the same op and ed but who knows maybe it will change later also please make the cat a regular part of the show.

YES, this is continuing. The slightly different singing in the opening was nice. Also nice to see more Kuu on screen.

Quiet episode but looking forward to the Sugeroku bros next week.

Actually the cast didnt sing the opening. The super ball moved to doing the ED for eidLIVE so the other dude who they are co-op with does the entire song this time.

Great episode!


If the narration becomes a regular thing I will be more than happy. I was smiling from ear to ear for the whole episode solely because of that. Tsuda, Kenjirou is a masterful voice actor!

....I have a theory about this show.

I think they all died trying to escape prison, and they are in some form of purgatory.

That's why everything is so sparkly, the wardens are OP, and they cater to their every whim. Like arcades, pizza ovens etc.

'Nanbaka is a gag anime' :D
I love how they were reinforcing that point with the random comedy and events.

Anyhow, Good start to the second season. I'd like for a some more comedic episodes before it starts getting serious like last season.

That hair color change syndrome was kinda amusing, The ending with Hajime was hilarious. XD "He's invincible" XDD

So is this airing at the same time and day as last season?

Lol this episode. The guy was constantly trying to find a way to show that this season will continue with the serious tone the previous season had in the second half. But everything happening was pretty random and amusing. Lol the hair color changing syndrome. And Hajime was invincible. Dammit. So it appears that Hajime lost his hair due to hair loss and he didn't shave his head. He looks too young to suffer from such serious hair loss though.

Fucking hell the narrator was bonkers this week. Hair swapping shenanigans cause I don't know. I swear Nico isn't even human. (Watch that be a plot twist later on; Unfortunately though I don't think that'll be a joke if that's the case)

Still though, trap guy is back next week. Also, please give me the old OP back. Thanks.

I believe it was originally going to be a 24 episode series but they split it up into two because of the new "format". This "season" (more like 2nd half) won't air on Japanese TV but instead on a Japanese streaming service (and of course it goes to Crunchyroll as well).

i wish this anime would decide to be either comedy or serious, the constant switching is disjointing and annoying.

I have the impression that I'm the only one, but for me, this episode was the worst of Nanbaka. The humor was very bad and nothing was funny except the narrator. The comedy of the first season was way more hilarious.

Seems like the vocals of the OP of S2 changed a bit if you would notice closely.
The Random Hair Color Syndrome is the most hilarious part!
Everyone is so worked-out and stressed just because they have different hair color that they didn't like lolz! and Hajime is invincible on that kind of Syndrome!
4/5.

This was a surprisingly good episode, considering!

But what disappointed me was, no new OP and ED! Not really complaining about the OP though, it's a pretty awesome song.

them pushing "this is a comedy anime" basically give me the feeling that things will just get worse from this point on, like the latter half of the first anime _xD
