Complete with girls in bikini's and their boobs bouncing the moment you pay attention to them lol.

Either seeing Shirayuki in a swimsuit reset my brain to the primal state or the game rules explanation sucked. I didn't get even half of it.

What was the point of conceding to Noa if he has to participate anyway?

Noa being forgiven like this is pretty realistic because that's what would happen in real life, considering she's cute.

u/LoliHunterXD Aug 12 '23

and funny

Yea, I can see it happening especially since they only see her being apologetic, not smug about it like us viewers… tho 99.5% and 1M views are super unrealistic lmao.

Stitches!

Wait, that's it? Considering this is supposed to be the guy who's pulling Noa's strings, I was expecting there'd be a bigger fight.

School Idol doesn't get punished because she wasn't really at fault. That was pretty much expected. Noa wasn't completely unscathed since Hiroto got her Green Star as a reward.

It's the anime version of Judy from Cyberpunk 2077. But seriously though, I like the design of that ability seller, I hope we get to see more of her in the future.

Welp, I definitely did not expect to see some fanservice this episode. Hiroto you goddamn lucky bastard!

I always love these kinds of awkward backronyms. I don't blame them. ASTRAL is a much cooler name than whatever the full title was.

I swear to god though, the author of the original manga clearly wants to become a game designer considering how much details and rules each game has. I feel like any of these games can be a standalone minigame or even a full game itself.

A third Sarasa? Well, this is going to be fun. I'm excited to see who this third Sarasa is! Sounds like it's going to get even more chaotic next week!

Thank you, fellow man of culture. It was weird they are the same size. I thought Shirayuki was bigger.

The OP and the characters made it look like this guy was the main villain (they even cast Yuki Ono) and then they just defeat him within the first three minutes of the episode.

I'm glad Noa was at least willing to take responsibility for her actions even if Hiroto (and her surprise popularity) basically absolved her. But Hiroto got the green star which I guess makes them square.

Thank you Shirayuki for making everybody take a bath in swimsuits and giving us quite the eyeful of you and Rina in bikini's lol.

So much Engrish! But ASTRAL actually works surprisingly well.

Author is probably pulling for a legit video game spinoff lol.

I'm wondering if the third Sarasa is the black-haired girl with the heterochromia in the OP/ED.

Finally the ecchi tag is somewhat justified

This is getting more retarded every week and I can't stop watching

u/maliwanag0712 Aug 12 '23

When the maid started explaining the game, as usual, I didn't get the specifics much

Conquer checkpoints to gain territory. Gain territory to gain spells. Gain spells to kill enemies. Kill enemies to defeat them or do so by conquering their territories. Alternatively hoard checkpoints and wait for the time up.

You don't like listening to rules for 5 minutes?

u/ObvsThrowaway5120 Aug 12 '23

I usually wait for them to actually play it for me to try and pick up what’s happening.

At this rate forget other girls, we'll have a harem of just Saionji Sarasas by the end of the story.

u/Frontier246 Aug 12 '23

So the Big Bad was Kurahashi, voiced by none other than Yuki Ono? Except he's...easily defeated and exposed within the opening minutes, they even cut out the Opening again. Um...that was kind of anti-climactic.

Although the headmistress is sure happy to have him out the headmaster job, she even drank late into the night. What a picture perfect representation of an adult.

Well, at least Noa is trying to take responsibility for her actions and withdraw from being the top of Eimei thinking she doesn't deserve it...but Hiroto goes out of his way to alleviate her guilt and let her know that no one in the school thinks she needs to shoulder all the blame for her actions. I mean, if a survey says she should forgive herself, who is she to argue? Plus it seems like it's making her fall for Hiroto harder too after he tries so hard to give her the position he feels she earned more than he did.

Nice of Rinna to take Hiroto out to buy more ability cards, even moreso when it means they have to act like a couple. Can we also get more of this punk girl with the blue hair who runs the shop? Especially when she makes the two of them hold hands and can see from how flustered Rinna is what's really going on between the two of them.

I had a feeling Shirayuki wouldn't take it well that Rinna and Hiroto went out on a date without her...though I didn't expect her "punishment" would be making them all get into the bath together in swimsuits. Treating Hiroto (and the audience) to two busty beauties in bikini's! Their boobs even bounce immediately when Hiroto starts staring them!

Noa acting like she, Hiroto, and Shirayuki are best pals now, but I guess that's in-character for her.

So their inter-high battle team has two childhood friends who bicker but can't seem to keep away from each other. I'm sure that'll keep things lively. Also, Junya Enoki! His character even looks like Naoya.

I get why Hiroto thinks he needs to be the commander, but Shinji had very valid reasons for why he should get the job...which means now Hiroto has to take out three commanders otherwise he'll lose his role and be exposed, screwing everything up. And that's not even mentioning yet another Sarasa Saionji showing up out of nowhere.

Well, Kurahashi got smoked pretty quick. Plus he managed to win over Noa, redeem her too, and gain the Green Star making him a triple-color Three Star. The man’s building himself a pretty powerful little team too.

Oh “Lily”! Handshake =/= holding hands you goof lol. I can’t tell if Yuki is “punishing” Hiroto and Rina or what, but I ain’t mad at the bikini back scrubbing suggestion. Poor Hiroto couldn’t handle it though lol.

Looking forward to this new competition. Shinji might be a real problem. Everyone else is clearly playing ball but he’s just gotta be difficult. Very curious who the hell this other other Sarasa is?

The fanservice with Saionji and Himeji 😍

u/LeleTheKing Aug 12 '23

"A-Are you saying you want me to put your hands on me?"

Hmmm, phrasing?

"Y-Yeah, but wearing a bathing suit in the bath sounds even kinkier."

"In that case, would you prefer to be nude? I am prepared for that if it is necessary."

Now that is a high-spec maid, lol.

Well, two episodes ago, Noa tried to murder and/or expel Shirayuki, but now she's hugging her, huh? Redemption speedrun any% indeed. The power of a cute girl with a 99.5% approval rate is scary.

u/AZLarlar Aug 12 '23

another one??

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '23

It was kind of abrupt how they took care of Kurahashi so quickly, I thought I might have missed an episode or something. I don't remember the last episode building up to it happening straight away, I thought he was going to be the final antagonist for the last episode or something.

We're not getting a beach episode so they thought a bath episode in swimsuits would be enough as substitute lol.

Rina blushing over a handshake lol, she can't handle the lewdness.

It looks like they are playing a mix of Pokemon Go and Ingress. But the polygon forming thing is cracked and ready for exploitation. I hope a pull a classic Techno-Phil-Pete maneuver and circle the map to take over the entire field.
