Kaguya researching the birds and the bees only to end up developing a taste for dirty jokes is just perfect in how it undercuts her oujo-sama aesthetic.

He's got Nice Guy vibes to him but I think he's got a point that if you have a relationship you really should make time for their emotional needs.

It feels like its the 'have a girlfriend and waste it by not doing anything romantic with them' thing is why he hates the sports teams.

He knows that he is probably never gonna have a girlfriend, so to see someone waste such a precious relationship is infuriating to him.

Ishigami is a character who'd be insufferable in a worse written show.

He feels like an isekai protagonist who never dies and goes to another world

It could very well be. The manga can be kind of meméy at times, and it feels appropriate that the anime follows suit on that regard.

And yes, Ishigami's VA is very good in this ep.

For some reason the anime makes Kaguya's cute side a lot more obvious for me, I'm not sure if it's because her voice changes or the animation makes it clearer.

Shirogane shadowboxing like a madman after winning and Kaguya literally stamping her foot like a child are the reasons why this chapter is tied for my favorite chapter of Kaguya, along with the Wiener chapter.

This show is great and my only complaint so far is the narrator explaining too many of the jokes.

I think it was funny when the narrator chewed the scenery with Ishigami lying about studying though.

The narrator has definitely gotten a laugh or two out of me, no doubt. I just want him to shut up during some of the scenes.

That's not how the Triangle Attack works...
I'm disappointed that the narrator was so subdued during the "They were lying" story. When I read it originally in the manga I mentally heard the narrator getting more and more intense as it repeated itself and I was looking forward to seeing how intense they would get.

I think the problem was the timing and storyboarding: I would have cut/zoomed-in to the intense closeup and THEN have the narrator declare, 'THAT WAS A LIE.'

Yeah I agree, I imagined it my head as basically shouting every "BUT THAT WAS A LIE!"
