The way Haruka smiles almost feels like it's plastered on her face. Not going to lie, her character feels kinda forced into this show just by her personality including this episode.

Maybe I can like her character better if it wasn't so blend. The tone of the modern setting also gives some mixed vibes for me. On the other hand, at least we did get to know more about Airi's party members/friends.

The Bicycle Kick had me in tears it was hilariously bad LMAO.

Well we have a Harem anime now which was to be expected. Airi is top tier and Haruka is the bottom of the barrel.

I was also under the impression Haruka had no idea Kaito was in the dungeon but this episode made it seem like she knew all along. Maybe I missed something, I don't know.

This show is bad but a good bad.

It came off as pretty forced, too — the trio even realized it in the same episode! I suppose Aira isn't that much older than him, but it would be more common the other way around (the university person being the male, maturity wise). That said, the MC and Aira seem to have the better chemistry of the potential pairings.

Wish the writers would've shown some restraint and limited it to one of the three exploring chicks... I fear there will be no shortage of "drama" during the dungeon sections.

Harem route confirmed.

So Kaito just casually mentions going to the dungeon in front of Katsuragi when it was my understanding he was lying to her about being involved in any way shape or form. She has to know this is a regular thing now right? I'm not sure how much if at all this will be expanded upon/developed given what we've seen so far though; it doesn't seem like character development is that big of a priority here. Maybe someone who has read the source can tell me if it's more relevant there.

As anime only, looking up the LN/manga art before had me a little annoyed with the censorship but wow you're really gonna throw that ED in our face too now?
Censorship is vandalism.

I love how they show stacked sylphy in the ending credits.. like a slap in the face.

Kaito is way too shit of a character to have a harem like the one he's building.

Also, what the fuck are these faces?

Animators, y u do dis? Another issue with the animation aside from it being dog water, no one blinks when they talk.. it's a Hallmark of bad animation.

Man, the several mini-blizzards that randomly appear. He is in deep trouble, but I knew he would eventually get caught. But actually, it was his inability/fear to speak his feelings to her at the end that really got him in deep crap. LOL

This episode was my favorite one so far. Couldn't stop laughing from beginning to end how out of touch the MC is with everything around him. Spends the whole episode flirting with other girls in front of his female friend while denying in front of her that she's his girlfriend then wonders why she's mad at him. The soccer kick on the stairs topped it off and placed this as a contender for AOTS.

Unfortunate that Gekkou lost a bunch of people with this show, they had such a great track record up to this point but I guess they couldn’t all be bangers. For me personally, I can certainly see the issues the show has, and it definitely isn’t as good as all of Gekkou’s previous shows, but I’m still enjoying this, wouldn’t be here if I wasn’t lol. And I had a feeling this episode in particular would get shit just for not being in the dungeon and also not including the flagship lolis, of course I wanted to see them too but this one being overall more chill because of the open campus visit was a pretty good time, you also had the antics caused by Kaito and his friends which gave us some funny bits.

One thing I wasn’t expecting tho was for Kaito to rizz up his whole party, I guess just becoming more badass from the dungeon diving was enough, although that bicycle kick was more comedic than cool imo lol, it not only looked silly but was so out of nowhere too, but that’s a big part of why this was a great bit. And even after all the hints in this episode alone, Kaito still didn’t realize Katsuragi’s feelings, but the good thing for Katsuragi is that Kaito probably won‘t realize any of the others like him either lol.

And wow I wasn’t expecting a new ED, but this wouldn’t be the first time Gekkou switched things up in the middle of a 1-cour show. I prefer the original ED but I liked this new song along with the artwork which supposedly shows Sylphy’s LN design but I’m gonna be completely honest, I hardly noticed lol, I’m against censorship too but this is one of those times I’m not that bothered by it.

Ain't no way...
I just start reading the manga the other day and it's really different from the manga source.
But since this wasn't manga I'll just give my opinion for this episode.

And now our hero getting a harem just like that? Wasn't that just a bit too fast? C'mon, at least give me some development like crawling in dungeon and facing a real threat again just like previous episode. Welp, the backflip shoot was cool, but there's no way it can be done, especially on stairs.
And there's no both Sylphy and Lucelia in this episode, kinda sad...

Kaito sure does embody the "mob" name, constantly and consistently showing that he has a bird brain forgetting things 3 seconds ago and doing what he said he wasn't going to do (like mention the dungeon), and fantasizing like an idiot, publicly embarassing himself to the point I get 2nd hand cringe for him. Definitely not the sharpest tool in the shed. If he wasn't the usual self-insert MC that automatically gets a harem of girls swooning over him, he wouldn't even be worth remembering as a background character. I suppose they delivered on the "mob" part of the title.

During the lunch scene...the chairs mysteriously disappeared after they went to get drinks. Shoddy animation?

There was a lot of suspension bridge effect going on afterward on the stairs.

New ED theme seems nice.

Overall, boring episode. Have to really turn my brain off to sit through it, because I really can't stand how much of a smooth brain Kaito is.

Side note: I read some of the manga and...it's entirely different from the anime. Same characters, but everything about the story was different, like it was rewritten from the ground up, forgetting the other even exists. I've never seen this happen before in my life. It's usually only goes as far as having an anime-original ending, or cut content...but a whole rewrite is a new one for me. I wonder if the LN is also the same or different as well.

That was weird when Haruka casually mentioned that he was doing this instead of going to the dungeon, when up to now it seemed he was doing everything he could to avoid letting her know he was even visiting the park, let alone actually exploring.

And then when they got her away from the group for a bit, they got all excited talking about the dungeon and never once thought to mention that she didn't like hearing about it?

And why aren't the childhood friends on a first-name basis anyway?

There's just so much inconsistency in this episode.

Haruka's "date" with Kaito to Airi's Ouka Academy's open campus event...plus Hayato and Shinji, because they're the much-needed wingmen for the dense dungeon-obsessed young man. Obviously, anything that has to be related to the dungeon severely deprivates Haruka, though thankfully this is just the excuse that she can get over with, with his friends being jealous that he meets more beauties like Airi after her. Also, it's quite the challenge not saying anything regarding the dungeon towards Haruka, though with Miku and Hikari joining the fray being the same feelings as Airi...it's like they're really trying hard not to reveal as much as possible, which IS the intended goal.

With the 3 girls, it looks as if it's a group date in school, though they're also being able to be themselves being fellow adventurers once Haruka is out of the picture, when in regard to their homeroom teacher Onigawara, though this gets heard by Haruka herself to contemplate why everyone is so adamant on going to the dungeon. That said, Kaito's rizz just keeps growing after saving both Miku and Hikari from their plights...even Airi inviting them to the dojo to show off her moves to impress Kaito.

It's a damn harem route for Kaito, though Shinji and Hayato just keep forcing him down their dungeon throats, and he isn't quite in the mood for the romance to notice Haruka's antics.

Damn, how dense can Kaito ever get?

Still, if this was a high-budget series, the animation could've been great.

It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Hold on...wait...did Haruka find out about all of Kaito's dungeon escapades, did I miss something??

At around 3:00 I had to rewind twice to make sure I read the subtitles right because it sounded like Haruka all of a sudden knew about Kaito's dungeon escapades and he didnt pick up on it as unusual....and by 4:00 she is back to unaware. And then at then at around 6:00 we're back to her being aware of him going to a dungeon, and at 6:50 his friends go on about being careful about particular details instead of outright denying things...and by 7:34 and 8:30 they are pretending she doesn't know, and at 10:30, we're back to her knowing and just surprised to learn more details...and its left vague at the end.

Either way, Haruka aint a happy camper and Kaito is denser the event horizon of a black hole...

Kaito already transforming into a proper MC. If they only knew he still has those 2 hidden lolis who can also turn into proper waifus - they'd go mental.
ο»ΏIf Kaito upgrades his armor into an all black with pauldrons and maybe with a black trench coat, he can now pass up as a generic harem LN character πŸ˜‚

ο»ΏI really love those illustrations in the ending credits. If I am correct, those were drawn by the LN illustrator (source material), Almic (Arumikku).

Like for real. She has her issues with losing her father to the dungeon, but that doesn't mean she should hold Kaito back from what he enjoys doing. Kaito and his friends walk on eggshells when their around her. She's nearly perfect for him in every other category, but Kaito's happiness is going to the dungeons, and she's clearly against that.

"Manga readers are annoying, all they do is complain or spoil the anime we discuss in an anime forum.
They should really do their whining at manga forums.

LOL @ everyone getting charmed by MC, except the "supposed main romantic target"... cause she hates Dungeons.

BTW, LOL @ Katsuragi's facial expression when she asked what was his type, and he said her name.

WHO DID THIS, It's hilarious but also doesn't really fit the "surprised" it's more like they gave her the "OMG, WHAT THE F" expression here.

.

You know what...

This series is more "is it wrong to pick up girls in dungeon" than the actual DanMachi that's pretty much just focused on one single girl (Ais).
