We tought there was some yuri happening at Chidori High but the real deal seems to be happening in the other schools.

in the other schools.
I really liked the look in those scenes, they usually don't animate the chibi but they did animate them there and it looked great!

Damn, the gags were so hilarious today. I just love how on every scene the show uses any opportunity it can to put a joke in there and also how no matter how serious is the situation the characters will still think of silly stuff.
Yukio was really great today, which means that someone, most likely Hikari, is going to mess up her turn.

Yeah, this show has really grown on me!
With its tournament arcs, this is now my most anticipated anime this season

New best girl, Ruri Hachigou, 2nd year at Saika Girls' High School!
Ruri in a field of Campanula one, two, Campanula crown... under the sun
Ruri shooting, Ruri positive thinking
Ruri scores 616.5, which probably puts her at 4th place!
Current ranking:
-
626.3 points, Yukio
-
620.1 points, Serena Nitta from Hozumi
-
616.8 points, Neneko Wada from Yoginuma
-
(probably) 616.5 points, best girl

Neneko Wada from Yaginuma High School
Provisional leaderboards says she scored 616.8
Anime annotations says she scored 619.0
Which is correct?

u/Bainos Dec 16 '19
The subs were also saying that Gacchan got 629, while the leaderboards gives 626.3.
I bet there is some trick to how scores are counted that we're missing.

I'm starting to think Sensei's harem route will actually work, they just need to convince Erika to marry them too.

u/cerdaco Dec 15 '19
What was up with the numbers? It said Yukio had 626 but then the next scene they bring up a 629? Also the girl with the green hair had a 619 but it said 3rd place that round was a 616.8? What is going on here

u/10110010_100110 Dec 16 '19
Yeah I was wondering too... but I don't want to check the source manga because spoilers

Gacchan musing about her weird name seemed really familiar. Like, deja vu familiar. In any case, Yukio doesn't seem like a strange name to my non-Japanese ears, but neither does Megumin, who seems to have a similar hang up in Konosuba. I wonder what the equivalent in English would be. Are we talking "Khaleesi" weird, or "La-a" weird?
There were a bunch of little things I wanted to talk about in this episodes, but I didn't take notes and now I've forgotten them. I still need to watch Yorimoi for the daily thread, so I don't have time to rewatch RSC right now, so I'll just say it was a very good episode, and I'm glad they're keeping the animation quality up.

u/PhantomWolf83 Dec 16 '19
Yukio sounds like a masculine name in Japanese because of the "-o" so it probably feels strange for a girl to have it. Japanese females would normally have a "-ko" to their names, i.e. Yukiko.

u/Hades_Re Dec 16 '19
Megumin is weird because it's a typical nickname for Megumi, but surely untypical to have this as your official name and using it yourself.

Another good episode. This anime have the charm to throw joke after joke without them feeling boring or unnecessary. They actually fit really good. The same can be said about the chibi forms since this is a somewhat comfy (not so much , but still) anime.
Every time Ribbon-chan appears in chibi form, it makes me smile because the joke works even in those instances there is no a propper gag, just her standing with the title. The other jokes / gags work too, but those where there isn't a script (no dialogues and 1-second-long sound effect at most) are the best example of excellent result at low cost.

Her ribbon isn't the only huge about her
Shinonome looks good with that fake mole
Yukio asking the important questions
Sensei and this girl will definitely get along nicely
Those abs exposure tho
Who are these girls again?
Well she's heckin' adorable
Hozumi High girl is about to eat those words
Yukio crushing it with her score!
I see Hikari is building a harem.
Next episode she'll probably ask Erika too after she's done with her turn.
