This really deserves more attention than it's getting, even if it slips up every now and then. That Agrippa sketch was very good and the ending segments are powerful.

Sure, Fantomas only scribbled on the paper during the math bit of the training montage, but that's still pretty impressive for a beetle in my opinion. And now he's been forced into a life of crime. There's a lot of potential there.

I think that people in this sub-forum are actually paying a lot of attention. I read somewhere in reddit that Gigguk and a couple of other AniTubers who are not Super Eyepatch Wolf (and as such, I could care less about them) called it "discount/ripoff Nichijou". Which is stupid and reductive in a new way.

But yeah, show rules.

I was worried when I saw there would be a segment that would take up half the episode, but no, it was actually the best possible one to do so and deserves a sequel.

Also, I want to download Bacteria Go irl even though it would probably turn me into Howard Hughes.

I think the show might be best advised to be taken one episode at a time. I'm taking them all in one after another, and it just kinda blends into the VAs screaming and creepy wild takes.

Honda getting owned will never not be good. THOSE SLUTS

As far as I know they're all rookie VAs (except Kasumi maybe) and they're going all out. Especially Honda's VA. How do you keep your throat from aching after these sections? Wow.

Cough drops and room-temperature beverages, mostly. And usually this needs to be done ASAP, because recording schedules can get super problematic outside of like the first 2 episodes unless we're talking studios like Kyoto Animation or schedule has been planned for a while. Which usually it isn't. (Source: Used to do engineering for dubbing sessions).

Also I'm guessing that all three of them mostly did what Kaito Ishikawa (Genos in One Punch Man, Iida in My Hero Academia, among others) once described as "Mob Work", which is just voicing "Girl A", "Student B" and stuff like that.

Yeah Hanako Is doing an amazing performance. Hope she ends up with more leading roles after this

It speaks to the quality of the show that you can see part of the brick joke coming but it happens so fast that the second part catches you by surprise.

I feel like Olivia thanks to being in contact with Hanako might be actually improving as a person surprisingly enough. Kasumi meanwhile is definitely getting worse. Admittedly Olivia's seeming improvements might just be a result of Hanako being The Worst and thus making those around her look better.

I also appreciated Hanako getting smitten with (her image of) Olivia's brother complete with cute heart thumping in her chest that's drawn exactly like an actual heart except with a moe anime face on it
