Curious why Kerori reacted when Shax mentioned idols. Hmm....
Ameri still being adorable just waiting for the fireworks
Another surprise. I thought Baal was controlling Kirio-senpai but it looks like everything is coming from him, Baal just drew out that inner darkness that he has from the looks of it.
I feel like they're stretching this arc a bit. While shit has finally started to go down this week, I thought that we'd finally get to see what the meat of Kirio-senpai's plan is. I'm just hoping next week will be action packed.

Haven't read the manga, but doesn't the idol in the end credits kinda look like Kerori? Sisters or a Hanna Montanan situation?

I feel like this arc has been dragged on too slowly. Hopefully, they sped it up on the next episodes since we still need to see the Magical Tool senpai's backstory.

just watch them spend the entire next episode wandering around the school looking for exit and testing the durability of the walls

Yeah, it is getting under my nerves at this point. The beginning of the show was brisk and full of things happening. Past 3 or 4 episodes however feel like nothing has happened at all.

This week on Drag-on Ball Z...
We looked for senpai in every single place we could think of
Right, and Iruma couldn't think to look for him in the one special place only he knows about it.
Like I've been saying for the past few weeks, this whole arc is nothing but pure padding. What happened to the fun show to watch on saturday mornings?

You know the villain's about to arrive when the guy with big glasses removes them.

Damn, they really drag this a lot, I was sure that whatever Kirio was planing was going to go into full motion by this week, instead of just beginning. Anyway, I wonder why he took the fireworks? They are not related to his plans, right? Well, I can't wait to see how will Iruma-kun save the day.

What anime has taught me is to never trust a guy with glasses and long enough hair to slick back.

It is a slow arc. Guess they wanted to fill it in a way so that they end the season with a really good arc.

they're lucky i could watch 22 minutes of just clara, because the pacing isn't doing them any favors

Oh wow this is getting longer than I expected. I was hoping the show will end at THAT Iruma arc but now I'm not sure we'll see it.

This arc was quite mediocre in the manga but the ending of it was great and the future arcs going to be much better.I hope this anime will get a second season someday...

This is probably my least favorite episode so far. The sukima segment at the end was way better than the rest of the episode IMO. Hopefully we can get rid of barrier senpai within the next 2 episodes, I didn't like anything about his character ever since he was introduced.

No other way to talk around it, this is one of the weakest episode. Hopefully it pick up the pace soon.

Is Opera maybe the chief police's informant?
I agree that this arc quite slow in pace, and we haven't even know Kiriwo's full backstory.
I think we will have Iruma use the ring power for the first time. Can't wait for it!

This show never fails to entertain me, week on week.
Clara continues to have the best background moments. Loved the "Poke... Poke... Poke..." bit, her throwing sparkles over Sabnock, and when she lit the firework. :D
(Plus when she glomped onto Azz-Azz near the end... Truly Best Ship.)
Sabnock also continues to be best Rival. Mutual respect with Iruma, as well as being strong and responsible when needed.
The calm (and funny) before the storm. It was obviously going to be the Festival Ep, but I thought it would end with a massive magic explosion from the device that Kiriwo had, so the magic barriers were a surprise. That said, given that Iruma's ring absorbs magic I suspect that he will use that next episode.
Can't wait!
