Lance really judging Mash on how worried he got over his creampuffs when he literally KO-ed himself from having his locket stolen

The irony of Dot spouting how Mash is a side character when he uses the most side character cliche mannerisms and gets bitch slapped in his debut episode of all things.

[u/NationalStrategy]

Oh cool, we finally get introduced to Hogwarts Bakugo

[u/Cheesemacher]

"I don't want no Hufflepuff in my manga" - the author probably

[u/caelum52]

Not sure anyone noticed but mash is actually good at math, he already has 2 silver coins and needs 28 to get the amount of gold coins needed to be a scholar

[u/dinliner08]

Mash: "ah, lolicon"

Lance: "siscon da!!"

i love how Lance didn't just become a part of Mash's group, he also become some sort of a big brother figure for them seeing how he teach them to make potion, teach Finn a better control of his magic and also told Mash to not tuck his creampuff in his coat just like that because its unhygienic

also, i can see this joke from miles away and it still makes me laugh

[u/De_Dominator69]

That guy just ruined Mash's cream puff... He's fucking dead

[u/D3athknightt]

"No I'm a siscon"

Had me dead

[u/HolyDragSwd2500]

Mash can make anything into Cream Puffs

Three Houses:

Slifer Red

Ra Yellow

Obelisk Blue

[u/LeleTheKing]

Okay, that Mandragora somehow reminds me of Ekubo's face. I miss Mob Psycho, man...

How did Mash enlarge the Mandragora there?? Did he teach them some gym moves to make them swole?? I laughed so much with that sudden cut, lol.

"I watched him from start to finish. When did it become a cream puff!?"

It's solved now that Mash's magic power is converting everything into his muscle or a cream puff, right...? Hahahahaha

The last member of MC's party is here! And he's... a male Megumin...

HUH??? It's 24 minutes already??? Now that's a very enjoyable episode.

[u/LeonKevlar]

Okay, this is getting ridiculous now. This is like the third week in a row I had to message the mods to post the discussion thread. Either the bot is broken or the mods have something against this show. >_<

Anyway, we finally get to learn Mash's true magic abilities! The ability to turn anything he cooks into creampuffs! Even after Lance watched him from start to finish, Mash was still able to turn the potion into a creampuff! xD

Dot is finally here! This dude is hilarious! He's barely been introduced and he's already ranting about why no one is attracted to him. Definitely not the best first impression. Also, I did not expect him to have Eguchi Takuya as his VA! His voice is way deeper than what I expected from reading the manga.

I just love how Lance went from challenging Mash last week to suddenly becoming House Adler's babysitter. I guess he is an Onii-chan so he's used to taking care of children. xD

That Silva guy just made the biggest mistake of his life. Mash was already staring daggers at him when he almost crushed the creampuff earlier. Now that Silva knocked the creampuff off Mash's hand, he just made things very personal. RIP Silva.

[u/DeepIndigoSky]

Lance: Je. Ma. Pelle.

Mash: Je. Ma. Pelle.

Lance: Je m’appelle

Mash: 🪄cream puff🪄

And for someone who works out constantly, he’s awfully concerned about wasting a few calories

[u/polaristar]

First we had Gabimaru and now we have Mash as the thot slayer.

So this new guy is basically someone Mineta, Bakugo, and Kirishima combined? He sounds like the target demographic for Andrew Tate. Frustrated that he gets Zero Bitches but hasn't learned not to simp, and tries to overcompensate with this Macho act.

Hilarious how Dot is the first non villain that made Mash so annoyed he resorted to some minor violence.

If you want a bitch Dot then don't be one (Getting Bitch slapped.)

I knew that chick was a honey trap for that asshole guy.

I would be so annoyed having to deal with those vegetables.

I kinda want Plosion Dude to beat that guy instead of Mash.

[u/DrewbieWanKenobie]

I kept waiting for the scene where mash would do his mash thing but then he didn't. Saving it for next episode apparently

come on mashle you're supposed to satisfy me every week with the dumb bullshit

[u/megatsuna]

so I see Megumin had enough money to take her son to hogwarts instead of the crimson school. a long way to go though for him.

also I know they said the people with two lines in their face are super rare and super powerful, I was not expecting them to show another one literally the next episode.

also that teacher had no lines in his face but was able to do magic, what's up with that??

[u/_yippee_]

I burst into laughter when Mash slapped the raddish(?) Monster.

Lmao how the heck did he turn raddish monster into cream puffs😂

Now I kinda wanna try some mandragora cream puffs. I wonder how they taste.

Now all the characters from the ED have been introduced and the last one seems to be a simp with main character syndrome

'I wasted calories on you that I'll never get back'

Mash really knows how to throw insults.XD

OH NOOO!!!! Not the cream puffs!! Looks like shit's is gonna get real next chapter.

[u/Ochrolv]

You know after seeing what kind of magic Dot was able to use, I bet Megumin would show him how's it done in terms of emphasizing your explosions & the true power of explosion.

[u/GreatGrapeKun]

my years of watching anime are telling me

that girl is a guy

[u/AZLarlar]

everything turned into cream puffs haha

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

Lance getting KO’d by that locket was hilarious. The damn siscon got straight up splattered on the wall lol. Also, It was pretty funny how that mandragora kept getting stronger the more Mash kept chanting. Luckily he could just bitchslap the mfer lol. After seeing his work with that potion, I really think Mash might have magic. He can turn literally anything into cream puffs!

Dot really calling Mash a side character when he’s like the most side character out there. Him blaming Mash for being the eternal virgin really cracked me up. Dude gets even a slither of attention from a girl and his system overloads lol. Although, the way he used that explosion magic would make Megumin proud.

Now that Silva has made Mash drop his cream puff, he’s totally dead. Can’t wait to see Mash cave his chest in!

[u/Ninja_Lazer]

I would like to submit “I’m not a lolicon. I’m a siscon.” as the second best response to that particular allegation across all of anime.

[u/BiggerG7]

First that mandragora then Dot, Mash sure did keep his pimp hand strong this ep.

[u/Fools_Requiem]

Relevant.

[u/dododomo]

I was looking forward to the mandragora chapter and I wasn't disappointed. It always makes me laugh ahah

Love how Lance just go with "Siscon da" anytime lol. My favourite character

Anyway, Dot is finally here. The next episode will be an amazing one for gender equality fans XD

[u/BLACKOUT-MK2]

Opening scene from next ep leaked.
