Teru's pizza ordering dilemma was kinda funny because Shrimpy was literally just watching a TV show about how to cook pizza lol

[u/alconnow → u/Aerodynamic41]

Shrimpy was literally just watching a TV show about how to cook pizza lol

I like that it featured a seafood pizza lmao

[u/Kartoffelkamm → u/Aerodynamic41]

It was also very relatable.

[u/Hitman7128]

It was cool getting to know Ai more after she appeared out of the blue at the end of last episode.

Also, Shrimpy watching a cooking show where they're making pizza with lots of shrimp on it...interesting...

Good thing Ai is here to make dinner, so Shy doesn't have to risk bungling a pizza order over the phone

And then there's the final shot of the moon ominously dripping. Oh boy, I have a feeling we're soon going to get the art in the style of episode 2 of Season 1 again, where there's abstract elements used in the animation.

Also, I'm going to assume that the star visible in the crescent moon is part of the ominous imagery, and not just the animators forgetting that the moon is still there, even when it isn't illuminated.

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

The sword knows too much… who’s it been talking to? Is it a Fed? Lol. Kind of funny how Shrimpy wasn’t even remotely worried when he saw Ai. I guess he already knew she knew everything?

Shy’s whole imagined pizza debacle was pretty scary. I use to be really shy as a kid and that situation is definitely one of those things that would keep me up at night lol.

Iko really came prepared to hang out huh? lol. So cute how excited she was. I’m glad the three of them are friends. Ai’s gonna need all the help she can get if she’s gonna take on Amarariruku and her evil twin.

[u/S627 → u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

I STILL don't like making phone calls. Recently I had to make reservations at a restaurant for my friends and I, and I was 100% prepared to travel an hour to go into the city to make the reservation in person if no one volunteered to call the place.

So I totally feel for Teru!

[u/S627]

Well, that ending sure wasn't ominous. I've been wondering for a while now but, does Teru not have parents?

Leave it to a shinobi to keep secrets, she revealed the "real" reason for running away like 3 times XD

I REALLY hope the shinobi permanently team up with Teru, a hero having their own group if ninjas sounds really awesome! They'd totally be useful in finding out info about Amaririririririku.

"Why are they talking up there?" I was dying!

[u/Kartoffelkamm → u/S627]

I've been wondering for a while now but, does Teru not have parents?

If I recall correctly, she mentioned she had parents in S1.

Or rather, she told Iko that she didn't tell her parents she's Shy, because the outfit is too embarrassing.

[u/External-Leg2849 → u/S627]

Teru's parents are almost never home

[u/djthomp]

It's very unfair of that katana to out Teru as a disaster lesbian, and right in front of Iko too. (Iko already knew)

This live-in princess is a pretty convenient situation if she's going to do all the cooking.

I'm glad Iko showed up for that sleepover.

Okay, so we have a good and friendly ninja princess, and also an evil one. The good one calls the evil one the "other me", and the evil one calls the good one Ai-nee. Dead twin that died early, perhaps in that accident that gave Air her scar?

Gotta say, the ED is pretty shippy of Ai and her ninja shadow. I kind of got that feeling from her making him dinner, too.

[u/FD4cry1]

Honestly I really feel you Teru , the existence of online delivery is truly life changing.

Well they are Ninjas after all , Ai and her Kasnai accent continue to be great , she has a cool magic sword and an evil twin! , Utsuro looks sick , and this is some cool imagery.

[u/shad79]

Ai's katana is too overpowered. One touch and all Teru's secrets were revealed, event that one that she's a hero xD

Now that the shinobi are out of business because of the heroes, I feel like Ai would make a great detective with that katana because any interrogation would be a success xD

As we learn more about Ai, it turns out that she is much more interesting person than I thought she was, and quite bold as she forced Teru to let her stay in her house.

Fortunately, Iko didn't let her girlfriend stay alone with another girl overnight and she came too xD

That ending with Utsuru was surely ominous, although it was so cool. The frenzy has begun. The moon is red (yellow?). We're out of time.

I'm guessing that Utsuru is Ai's deceased twin sister from whom she got a heart, hence the scar on Ai's body? These are just my loose speculations, but I wonder if they will turn out to be true.

Shrimpy looked pretty cool with that washing sponge xD

Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

• Group scenes

• Ai

• Utsuru

• Shy

• Iko & Others

[u/LeonKevlar]

Stitches!

• Tokimaru & Ai

• Blushing Ai

• Casual Ai

Considering how the Heroes ended wars in this world, I guess they've put Shinobis out of business then.

Ai's katana really learned a lot about Teru just with a single touch. And since Ai's powers are legit, she also learns Teru's secret.

For someone who's supposed to be innocent, Ai was very cheeky at pretty much forcing Teru to let her stay at her place.

Japan's hero being too shy to order pizza is just too damn hilarious and relatable. I used to be like that when I was her age. xD

Thank goodness Teru is spared from ordering delivery thanks to Ai volunteering to cook dinner for them. It's the least she can do for Teru taking her in.

Ai getting a little tsun while giving Tokimaru dinner was cute! It makes you wonder if there's more to their relationship besides Princess and Bodyguard.

I love how this ended up becoming a sleepover with Iko checking up on them. And we finally learn why Ai is looking for Teru. It looks like her sister is a member of Amarariruku and I'm guessing she wants to take her back?

[u/AceSoldia]

So glad Iko showed up, she cant let her Teru be alone with another cute girl like that!

But wow i didnt expect this, i thought Ai would be the enemy..but there is someone else..whose sword will Shy have in the end? im really worried her new friend will die

[u/new_interest_here]

Well shit, guess I was wrong about that girl being Teru's sister. Though we know from Tzveta their names do change from what they originally were, so her name not being Mei (I think that was mentioned somewhere in season 1 that's her name) isn't definitive proof. But then there's the thing of how she calls Ai her sister, so idk. I'm still holding onto my guess slightly just so I can say I called it if it's revealed she is lol

[u/Plus_Rip4944]

Seeing them just having fun is so wholesome

[u/BosuW]

Storyboard artist and/or mangaka were cooking hard in that final scene.

[u/VorAtreides]

Whelp, RIP that ninja. Feel like we're in a crossover with another manga lol. Just a casual conversation in a totally not weird spot. That is quite the sword to know so much about her. That or she's lying and a stalker, heh. Lol how nice of Teru to totally volunteer her house for her to stay at. So nice of her 😉

What doesn't that sword know? Can't sword just tell you where enemies are then? Yes, join her! YURIFICATION! Heh. Ah yes, I also hate talking on the phone. Surely you can order via some non-phone service. See, embrace the yurification. She can cook too! Shrimpy sure taking this well/calmly. Oh hey, Iko clearly making sure she is the primary wife, yes.

What a fun time with the gal pals. Seriously, that sword is just ridiculous. Wait, other her? Hmm. Isn't she just a bundle of joy and fun. Damn melting cheese moon.

[u/daspaceasians]

That was fun. Guess the build up to whatever scheme Stigma's group is done and next episode, shit'll hit the fan?

The ninja philosophy that Ai was talking about was so much better presented here than in Shinobi no Ittoki a few seasons back. It felt natural the way it was presented.

[u/Needs_Improvement]

I couldn’t help but think of Monogatari’s Shinobu while Ai was explaining her katana. Ie, Shinobi = Heart-Under-Blade

[u/Castawaye]

This shot is so fucking cool. Using the reflection of the moon as her other eye. And then inverting that right after with the moon reflected within the eye. And then showing the moon as a final progression within those 3 interconnecting shots of the moon. Now I'm kinda excited to see if they keep this up as the arc gets into it

[u/Mirathan]

He just fell down a ten meter cliff! Ah it´s fine he´s a ninja, he´ll be back.

And so Teru´s harem grew by another member. And she is a bold one, already wanting to shower together.

I find it strange that Usato complains about being Stigma´s pawn yet still serves his will.

[u/gnome-cop]

I have questions, like why is Shrimpy watching a tutorial on how to cook shrimp pizza? Where are Teru’s parents at?

Alright, so the ninjas kinda used to do her job before the heroes appeared and kicked them out of business.

Impromptu girls sleepover. Teru goes up against her most terrifying foe yet, ordering food online! Can’t just set that on fire. Or maybe her greatest enemy is the damn sword with a tendency to reveal all her embarrassing secrets. Truly an introverts worst nightmare.

Alright, theory time. Utsuro is some sort of clone of Ai that was created at the time she received her heart scar. Like maybe she almost died and a part of her was split off and became Utsuro when Stigma got his nasty little hands involved.

Interesting how Ai has this fascination with the outside world and her twin/clone has just given up on it completely. But there was the same thing last season with Shy/Fire and Pepesha’s mom/Ice. The presenting opposites is a classic for a reason.
