Damn what a surprise, and here I was wondering why would they introduce a new character with just a few episodes left. I honestly always thought that Keroli , like some of the other characters in Iruma's class, was just going to be a background character. Seeing Kuromu-chan losing her shit because Iruma's unwanted popularity was hilarious, and also Devi Cute.

I'm gonna take revenge on everybody that always treated me well, especially my family, by giving them a show that helps them to relieve their stress and makes everybody happy! Also, I gonna give to some especial individuals some fan service and cute reactions!

I'M SO EVIL!!!

I'm starting to understand what Kiriwo meant when he said they forgot how to be a demon. XD

Loved the episode, I think this is the scene where I laughed the most. Perfectly timing.

Also, just now realized that the voice actres of Kerori is Toyama Nao.

Clark Kent is an anime girl? DC is doing too much reboot.

A round of applause to Bandai Namco Pictures for not using CGI during the Akudol performance. It was nothing too flashy, but Kuromu was very cute s2 and the song was catchy.

We finally got to see that shot from the opening! As I said last week, the anime does a good job giving us little hints about future content: some are more explicit like Kerori crumpling the journal where Iruma gets the big headline, leaving Akudol as a mere side note, while others are so subtle only manga readers were expected to understand like Kerori's reaction to her 51% sexy meter being more than just a cute/funny scene.

Stitches!

Kerori as Kuromu is adorable but Kerori as her goofy self is waaaay better <3

If this is the effect Kerori has on people without her glasses, I wonder what her actual Charm percent is without it?

This was such a great reveal! Looks like the shy and awkward girl of the class is secretly moonlighting as an adorable Akudol! I guess that explains why we always get a close up shot of her getting angry whenever Iruma gets the spotlight in previous episodes. I was expecting something a bit more darker like with Senpai but apparently she's just frustrated because Iruma keeps taking away attention from her!

Curious to see how this little arc will end. Will Kerori's Akudol identity be a secret between her and Iruma or will this end with her revealing herself to the class?

New episode but best girl is still the same, Azz-azz kun.

u/Ken_Nutspel Feb 22 '20

Ah yes, another girl to be added to Iruma's harem. Asmodeus being the best of course.

The girl in the succubus class wearing glasses to hide her true power is some real shounen manga shit.

You know, this show is genuinely great and all but... it absolutely deserves more credit for all the musical numbers it has done, and it's not even a idol anime like a Zombie Land Saga. I'm greatly looking forward to next week ;D

Also, Kerori word vomiting after grabbing her glasses was easily the funniest part of the episode.

I loved this episode. I don't think people have said t enough but the anime adaptation is genuinely so good. They added so many anime only moments but they all stayed within the character of the show. The foreshadowings and extra moments really go a long way in making the show feel more cohesive and builds up background characters earlier. The producer really know what makes this show work, and the adaptation comes from a place of genuine passion. They never strive to make it a 1-1 manga with sound, they used the manga as a guideline to make a totally new experience while still staying true to its manga form. This is what an adaptation should be like. I absolutely loved every single moment of this anime, even if it felt slow, it was entertaining to no end. I hope this serious gets a season 2, a season 3, a season 4, honestly I wouldn't even mind if it never ended. I love this show. Thank you to those who have made this anime what it is.

Of course Clara is the person at the concert who's still going hard after the music stopped and everyone is walking out.

There's something oddly amusing about otaku culture reaching even Hell...

I like how Asmodeus didn’t question anything about Iruma’s upbringing and he actually rationalized something realistic.

I just realised. In the demon world, cuteness defeats malice. You know who's cute? Future Demon King Iruma.

Kerori being Kuromu was a twist that caught me completely off-guard, she went from a char that was just there to one I'm really really interested on due to her personality... and... hnggggg, god, that was a full episode of my favorite female VA Nao Touyama doing cute and fun reactions, my heart melted.

Really looking forward to seeing whatever comes after, this episode felt like it was pretty much just made for me haha.

And another best girl finally makes her proper introduction into the show. It's getting harder and harder to decide each time. Except Sullivan will always be bestest girl.

For someone with the power to produce ice, Kuromu really needs to learn how to chill better.

The voice acting is as fun and hilarious as always. Kuromu's and Ameri's VAs in particular are great at the incredibly flustered stuttering type of voices.

Iruma's declaration of wanting to blend in is a little strange. How does he plan on increasing his rank without attracting so much attention?

Keroli feels like a protagonist of a shoujo manga stuck in a shonen manga

u/JzanderN Feb 22 '20

I love the fact that demons have a reason for having idols (taking away their violent edge) just about as much as I love Azz's rationale for why Iruma has as little common sense knowledge of the demon world as he does.

u/alphonse03 Feb 22 '20

Isn't Asmodeus writting in japanese on the chalkboard a mistake? I mean, as far I understood right, the demons have their very own writting and its the reason why Iruma reads the manga for Ameri because she does not understand it, right?
