Okay!

So, I've, like, designed a really sweet attack plan that I'm calling Attack Plan Ded Moroz, like "Deadmau5!"

WUB!
So, chances the show helps the novels get licensed in the US?

The fan translation got a dmca notice a while ago so it seems someone already got the rights

If I'm being honest with myself this is now the show I look forward to the most every week. It's just too much fun.

The nature of this show seems to go really well with DEEN's QUALITY animation.

This kind of in your face fanservice doesn't actually bother me that much. It's the incredibly silly outfits 90% of the incidental characters have. It's like every female character is budgeted 2 square feet of material so they all end up wearing short shorts and bikini tops.

Darkness is decently dressed. Note that being decently dressed does not necessarily imply actual decency overall.

i dunno, they're silly fanservice outfits in a dumb comedy fantasy anime. i don't see why the outfits would bother you in this context if none of the other fanservice does

They got all their clothes from Final Fantasy X NPC's.

fanservice taken too far is just gross. queen's blade, for example. for this show, it is on the level of "there are female characters who exist and wear clothes". truly horrifying.

here are megumin's thoughts on fanservice:

I thought the first episode was good, then the goddess puked up a rainbow and it became wonderful. Can't wait til they pick up the Mage i.e. the objectively best class.

megumin and darkness are both awesome

Darkness is like a super-weird, human version of Cerea from Monster Musume, and that makes her best by a small amount over Megumin. It's a close race.

Darkness wont really get much story in this season sadly. Her backstory only starts getting handled in volume 3 and this season seems to end at volume 2 if we are lucky.

Darkness doesn't need story. She needs to be a creep. It's great.

Here is Darkness' tragic past: she was raised normally by a nice family.

Don't lose your head over it.
Darkness' backstory is that she was the Paladin in Bikini Warriors before being reincarnated and promoted to the Crusader advanced class in KonoSuba.

I didn't like 3 and 4 so much, but then 5 happened and it was loving magical. 6 was pretty great too.

Episode 7 was pretty quiet for KonoSuba but Darkness was in fine form throughout, with the highlight being her getting off on having her face smooshed into the snow. And once again, Aqua proved surprisingly competent at exactly the wrong time, which is my favourite thing about her. While telegraphed well in advance, the resurrection gag was great.

Winter clothes were cute, sadly the explosion felt really weak this time, so overall I rate this episode "eh". Megumin lying in snow playing dead was great

Just watched Episode 6. Megumin floating around at the end was pretty funny.

Looking at the preview, i guess they're skipping the party swap and brothel episode.

The former sounds interesting and from the title alone, I'm glad they skipped the latter.

If you must blink, do it now.
Speaking as a former DM, a brothel visit is a great excuse to knock your players out and steal all their belongings.

Works well in-game too.
