Not using "How Cute" is sacrilege of the highest order, murder all Crunchyroll employees :goonsay:

Other than that, this show is perfection and is the Shaft adaptation I always wanted despite it not actually being Shaft. Kaguya's VA is great, Shirogane's VA is great, Fujiwara is great, everything is great.

It's just great. :allears:

Oh my god the narrator needs to STFU. There's more narration in this episode than a whole drat season of Kaiji.
Beyond that, the show is okay so far.

Can't handle an anime with a greek chorus and insist that it be removed for your own convenience?

The third segment was absolutely brilliant and Aoi Koga's performance when behind the door listening to two stupid boys talk was just magical :allears:

This is so Shaft it hurts.

EDIT - Actually to be more specific it's so Hidamari Sketch it hurts.

Kaguya practicing the book answers with Hayasaka and the mannequins made me burst out in laughter. Same with the dump truck of flowers dumping on Kaguya

The white background while Ishigami was going full creepy otaku about Kaguya slowly filling in with different elements of the council room until angered Kaguya shows up next to last was the perfect way to do that scene :allears:

We need season 2 cause we need animated Iino

Adaptation was about as close to perfect as you can get, 10/10.

Episode 1 owns owns, and then owns some more.

OP also owns.

For real though attaching this guy to Kaguya was the most galaxy brain move this production came up with.

This show really hit the ground running, episode owns. Court segment was the best :allears:

Wait, did they flip the defense and prosecutor sides from Phoenix Wright? Which sides do they go on in Japan?

They're in the right spots, the difference is those games always show the lawyers from the Judge's POV while here it's all from Kaguya's (the witness stand's) POV.

Star-gazing segment was done literally perfectly.

Super Jay Mann
Nov 6, 2008

Holy cow this was the best episode this season so far. Pretty much a 100% elevation from the original manga chapters.

"Haysaca" was done perfectly and big :lol: at Hatakeyama literally recreating the first scene of Araragi and Hanekawa in Bakemonogatari when Shirogane was talking to Fujiwara.

Oh and Iino showed up too I guess. Just her intro but it was done super good too.

Also the last line of the episode said that Shirogane's lead grew even wider, so it's safe to assume many of her poll results were either name recognition or perhaps anti-Shirogane votes (Fuji did say the whole "impure" thing was still a hangup for many students) until they took a look at her policies and decided "Oh hell naw :stonk: "

Super Jay Mann
Nov 6, 2008

Show continues to own Fuji teaching Shirogane again was clearly the best part, except not even clearly cause the entire Kashiwagi-Kaguya segment happened and it was just as amazing :allears:

Man the election chapters were really elevated by the voice acting. Miyu Tomita as Iino was definitely the right choice. You really feel for Iino as she's standing up there not knowing what to do before Prez shows up :(

Also Hayasaka's app showing Kaguya's mental condition had me in stitches.

OP2 is definitely better, Love Dramatic is a good tune but Daddy Daddy Do is astonishingly addictive in a way the first OP never was.

I think that episode brings Iino up to my favourite, I love her imagination.

Incidentally, that segment was evidently making a direct reference to this:

As if the extremely obvious musical reference needed to be more explicit.

The voice acting has been great for the show's entire run, but I feel like it was in especially good form today.

Konomi Kohara in particular's carving out a spot on my list of favorite VAs over the past year or two. Been an absolute delight here as Chika and as Machikado Mazoku's Shamiko.

She was pretty great as Kasumi in Asobi Asobase as well.

She's definitely a rising star.
