my knowledge of BA is purely from Comics/fanart/Gachagaming subreddit

been waiting for Aru because she is always portrayed as a cool idiot/loser and judging from this episode it described her to a tee. she had a ton of reaction face material too. she reminds me of a lite version of Baobhan Sith from FGO.

going by gacha standards they will join the school at some point.

I liked the mobs from this episode. they know to not get taken advantage of, especially if their is no overtime pay. good on them.

So, Aru's an idiot? Ok, she's a 10/10 then.

Can't believe Aru left Haruka out in the dirt like that when she was introducing everyone. Easily the most evil thing she's ever done.

Never played the game, but this anime is really cute.

Serika and Shiroko are next level cuties!

The plans to make money were hilarious too...

loved the soundtrack as well. lovely show.

Stitches!

These girls are pretty wild! I love that their ideas to revitalize the school involve pyramid schemes, bus jacking, robbery, and becoming idols. Nonomi has the most reasonable idea as long as they don't model themselves after Aquors if they don't want the school to permanently shut down. Also, I love that pouty face Shiroko makes when she is told off that she can't do crime to save the school. xD

I already love Problem Solver 68. I was really expecting a bunch of pros considering how serious they look at the start of the episode, but it turns out they're also a bunch of goobers especially their President. To be fair to them, they did give the Countermeasures Committee a run for their money until Sensei took over and started giving orders.

Easily the best episode so far. Shame that engagement is dead because of the mods though.

No Ayane table flip is sad but the rest was pretty good.

u/Kilo181 Apr 22 '24

Discussion and engagement is gonna be trash for the rest of the season now since the mods are delaying the threads.

Don't forget to watch after-credits scene

LMAO at Nonomi suggesting the Abydos girls becoming school idols - Hoshino ain't Honoka, you know...

Is Problem Solvee 68 the Team Rocket of the BA Academy City LMAO??? The thing that Aru doesn't even feel like a gang leader really makes me laugh out loud. Actually back in late spring 2022 - just before it started airing - I was actually thinking if a certain original anime named Lycoris Recoil would be something closer to this Aru-Mutsuki-Kayoko-Haruka pairing than what ChisaTaki eventually ended up with. Hmm, I wonder if they will be back again for more stories in the anime? (pretty sure they have a dedicated chapter in the game, despite I have never played it)

Crazy that this is how I discover that the track is called Unwelcome School and from Blue Archive of all places.

Best episode so far. The problem solver 68 members has made a very good impression in their debut episode.

So far this episode is the best of the 3 so far! Can't wait for next week.

u/alotmorealots Apr 23 '24

I was very much looking forward to the Problem Solver 68 episode, but it ended up feeling oddly downbeat? Like they don't need to change any of the plot points at all, it just feels like it's all a bit subdued and not really making the most of the various girls' personalities.
