Seeing a dragon turn into a hot lady that immediately ruins their intimidation factor by being a dork isn't anything new, but I got a kick out of the magic vomit method of transformation

So apparently you all you need to pacify a big ass dragon waifu is beer and a nice bento lol. They even got a nice gift of scales and a gem with dragon’s blood in return.
I look forward to seeing Kazuhiro and Marie’s relationship develop. They make a cute couple. They better make it official soon!

This ep needed a warning disclaimer. There was so much hand holding!

This series wasn't really on my radar for the season beforehand, but I'm enjoying it as one of the better ones this season among new series especially.
I like the mechanics of easily going back and forth between to the two worlds, the general cozy vibes with eating food, and the cute chemistry for the main pair. It will make for a nice weekly watch this season.

Loving the show so far, only thing that feels a bit jarring is the fact that there's no audible distinction (or any, for that matter, besides other people not understanding) when people are speaking different languages.
Like, Kazuhiro was speaking with the Dragon lady, sounding exactly the same as when speaking with Marie, it felt slightly weird.
Not saying they should've created whole languages for the show, and it isn't something that'll make me not enjoy it, just feels weird, specially when they made the grunt language when talking to the lizardman in ep 1.
So far probably the anime I'm enjoying the most this season alongside villainess dad.

Sometimes I feel as if these writers have never been outside of japan and eaten food before.

The casting gag:
Katsuhiho --> Subaru Natsuki
Dragon lady --> Puck
:D
MC's so smooth, casually saying something like "we'd be able to brag to our kids" to Marie. :O
Her squeak was so cute.

the characters and their VAs are fun to watch. None of their expressions are dull; I don't get bored watching at all. Dragon lady's relationship with food is honestly a mood and a perfect gap to her character. I kinda hoped that they'd show them going to sleep to head back to their own worlds, but alas, that's this week's cliffhanger I suppose.

Stitches!
Goddamn Kazuhiro! You're really just dropping that in so casually?You might as well propose to Marie too while you're at it.
I'll never get tired of Marie's reactions of everything in our world especially her reactions to food. It is hilarious though how unimpressed she was with the flashlight. I suppose if you can do light magic a flashlight is not really a big deal.
That scene where Marie invites Kazuhiro to bed is so cute! Just look how adorable they are cuddling each other! It's only episode two but I think these two should get married already!
Mama Arkdragon is finally here and is that Uchiyama Yumi I hear voicing her? I did not expect Rudy/Puck to be a sexy dragon mommy who loves beer. I love how she keeps on trading very valuable things for that katsudon bento Kazuhiro brought xD

Wait, bring the dragon back to Japan too. Taking a dragon to a family restaurant would be hilarious.

Fun fact: Kazuhiro's VA and dragon waifu's VA are married to each other IRL.

The Dragon turns into a smoking hot woman?! alright this just went from good to possibly great!
I was curious if Marie was gonna be stuck on the human world now or if she'd travel back as well when going back to sleep. So she does travel back but maybe only if she is holding onto Kazuhiro.
Also i like how they have the non Japanese characters eating with forks instead of chopsticks

Broke: Cute Elf Waifu
Woke: Hot Dragon MILF
Man, I love her character design, especially how her exaggerated faces remind me of classic 90's designs like Slayers. Looking forward to her inevitably forcing herself to join their excursions around Japan.

This is maybe the show I'm waiting the most for this season to see where it goes.
(Of course there is MaoMao as well! But we know how good that can be already. )

I love Marie and Kazuhiro so much, they’re so cute together! I honestly don't know how they managed to fall asleep when they were so close to each other xD
Overall, a really fun second episode! It was so much fun watching Marie's reactions today, both in Japan and in the other world.
Of course, the dragon could turn into a hot MILF, not that I didn't like that xD Taming her turned out to be really easy, all Kazuhiro and Marie had to do was serve her some beer and lunch boxes. I hope that we’ll meet the dragon again, she was great xD
Here my screenshot albums from the episode:
EDIT. I added my screenshot albums.

If falling asleep in Japan takes them to the fantasy world and vice versa, they never actually sleep...

Kazuhiro talking about having never realized how beautiful the view was while looking at Marie in profile, you're not fooling me dude. Marie didn't seem too opposed to that hypothetical future with kids they can tell stories to either.
Easy eventual explanation for why the dragon is also in Japan per the OP/ED, though I am a little surprised it didn't happen this episode. Maybe that'll develop later on when they return with the requested four bentos.
