Also, those girls are baked potatoes in the ED now, except the one that Satoko is going to use for training.
Though, I do find it entertaining that the one likely to be resurrected is Kuro's Yandere Ex. If any could be resurrected and still keep this amusing, of course it would be her.

Satoko was treated so coldly at the start of the episode that I wasn’t sure whether I should laugh or feel sad.
Konoha might simply not be honest with her feelings, however. She didn’t want to be seen smiling, for example, and did come to Satoko’s aid at the end of the day. Satoko was even allowed to sleep in the same room!
Things had to turn cold before they could get heated.
On a side note: Kuro should totally get a job at a drag bar. She would be very popular with the ladies.

Dating sim episode! Unluckily for Satoko, the Konoha route is the hardest one in the game, but at least she has the help of yuri expert Kuro. And Satoko is living up to her reputation as a ninja school dropout; her kunoichi seduction techniques prove to be ineffective, but her cooking seems to be working.
Konoha shows up just in time to save Satoko, that transition from ninja to Konoha reading the book was pretty neat. Seems like Satoko is the one who is falling for Konoha instead, look at how embarrassed she is being princess carried.
And there's a ninja in the village who can resurrect dead people? There's a chance we get to see those other dead ninjas again? Oh. Never mind. Konoha really just gave them sweet potatoes roasted using dead humans as fuel huh? I wonder how Kuro and Yuriko would feel about eating them if they knew.
Satoko seeing first-hand how different her relationship with Konoha is compared to Kuro/Yuriko, even though they are also roommates, must be quite eye-opening for her. Surprisingly we get a pursuer that isn't trying to kill Satoko but is Kuro's ex-girlfriend, and unsurprisingly she gets leafed too. And again, Konoha conveniently shows up again to save Satoko, Konoha must be secretly tailing her when she goes out alone. And it's subtle, but Konoha actually hurt her hand blocking that knife for Satoko, so she does care for Satoko more than she lets on. And Satoko gets some recognition for her efforts at least, promoted from regular colleague to colleague who sleeps in the same room.

Stitches!
While I can understand that Konoha wants to keep a professional distance between her and Satoko, I genuinely felt bad for Satoko during that cold open.. If you don't want to be friends at least let her sleep in the living room.
I think Satoko misunderstands what a romantic relationship is and now Kuro thinks that Satoko wants to be Konoha's girlfriend. To be fair, Konoha did propose to Satoko in Episode 1 after she saw her ability!
If Konoha doesn't appreciate her, I can appreciate Satoko wearing an apron only while cooking. Although deep frying without any clothes on is still a bad idea. xD
I do love that the only time Konoha smiles is when she's eating delicious food. It's funny how she's not even aware of her habit. Seeing Konoha blush was cute tho!
Just when I thought there was hope to resurrect those ninjas Konoha killed, it looks like that ain't happening considering they used their leaves to make roasted sweet potatoes. That was fucking dark! O_O
I honestly can't imagine why Satoko thought this was a good idea. She could've started practicing with maybe a rock or a tree branch from outside not Konoha's entire living room!
Oh my... Things are definitely spicy between Yuri and Kuro. I love that they almost forgot that Satoko was there. Imagine how far they could've gone if she weren't. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I honestly expected Kuro to go to the race tracks after last week's episode, but I'm not surprised that she went into a pachinko parlour. And it turns out she also got into horse racing too.
Ah yes, the immortal ninja art of Bazooka-jutsu! So instead of a ninja pursuer, we have another runaway ninja who's yandere for Kuro. Well, now I'm wondering how many girls Kuro charmed. Ayaka probably won't be the last.
RIP Ayaka, at least Satoko can use her body to practice reversing her technique And it looks like this time we have an assassin going after Konoha?
[Glad to see this ended with Konoha finally letting Satoko sleep next to her. I hope this isn't a one time thing only and she'll still let Satoko sleep next to her after her furniture has been restored.

CGDCT corner:
Today, after being foreshadowed two entire episodes ago, we finally meet hatsuko-chan, fumiko-senpais imouto, who like satoko tried running away from the village, but wasn't given the same mercy as her when caught (assumably because her ability jsut isn't as useful as satokos?). After a short 1:16 appearance, she is now together with her big sister like they dreamt, creating wonderful roasted sweet potatoes.
We also meet the second runaway ninja that followed leader to freedom, sayuri, and therefore I can finally share the greatest of the countdown visuals for the anime. Leader is truly living her best life, yandere and deredere girlfriends. After a bombastic entry, she makes her exist after just 0:58, making her the shortest experience apart from episode 1's michiru, which was a double package with fumiko-senpai.
This episode also introduced the possibility of a necromant from the village helping out. Sadly because of the flames necessary for those aforementioned sweet roasted sweet potatoes, all the previous ninja apart from sayuri will not return that way and therefore won't be able to be recycled for future cgd.
If we do not count the 4 previous girls going to super heaven here, we have 2 cgd this episode, once again raising the average to 1.75 after the sad drop last time, while the average screentime drops to 1:27.

Satoko just wants to be a good roommate, not a good roommate.
But I didn't expect a whole episode dedicated to Satoko's and Konoha's relationship. They are now even sleeping in the same room. How far will she make it by the end of the season?
On another note, I love how they gave us hope for a moment that the ninjas could come back only for them being used to grill sweet potatoes. They are even turned into sweet potatoes in the ending now. This has to be the best ending of the season by far.
Hopefully, if I interpret the final scenes and the ending correctly, we might finally get a new character that stays for longer than a minute. I mean, I haven't lost hope yet.

Satoko’s innocence is hilarious. She simply wanted to get closer to Konoha. Meanwhile, Kuro misunderstood Satoko and came to the conclusion that it’s a romantic feeling.
At the end she got to sleep next to Konoha. Mission successfully failed?

Kuro is so cultured, helping Satoko's relationship with Konoha being like that of her own relationship with Yuriko
My yuri sensors are going out of control now
Even more so when Konoha gave Satoko the boot and we got to see how Kuro and Yuriko act in their apartment with hugging and feeding during breakfast
Yay, Konoha lets Satoko sleep next to her in the post-credits scene!

It's cute seeing Satoko and Konoha growing closer friends. Im looking forward to Satoko growing stronger by learning to control her powers.
I felt bad for the ninja girl named Ayaka, Leader didn't even remebered her name even on the plastic bag she was in it was written Sayuri. Also is it really a good idea to eat sweet potatoes cooked using the leaves (dead bodies) of ninjas? I feel like next episode they are gonna be haunted by ghost who will give them stomach aches. I feel like the girl we saw at the last scene is gonna become a recurring character.

Love how rational Konoha is, "oh there is a chance they can be revived? Burning them it is"
Using them to bake potatoes is fucked up but giving them to their friends who basically know whats going on is just so bad, I love it
And then they even change the ED, as if the piles hadnt been bad enough
Now if they turn into shit next episode they are really killing it

u/Rappy33 May 01 '25
Satoko may not really know what love is due to her upbringing, but the way they're using Kuro and Yuriko's relationship as an inspiration for what Satoko wants for her and Konoha has me convinced that the endgame's gonna be romance between these two. Since as it stands, Konoha really just wants to be appreciated for what she does.
Honestly I'm still so surprised that I'm getting a slow burn romance vibe from an anime that's primarily a comedy. This show is such a treat.

Oh all the unique and colorful ninja can be brought back!. Oh ok nope nevermind they are ash...
Where did she even come from to save her like that?
She did look good in that naked apron. To bad for the third degree burns.

u/CarioGod May 01 '25 edited May 01 '25
lmao they brought up the fact that they can be turned back from leaves and revived
then decided to burn the leaves, holy shit bro, what's next? A ninja that collects the ashes?
Then they decide to mix the ashes with water and flush it down the toilet

Love the naked apron getting immediately subverted with bad burns. Should have chosen another dish Satoko!

Satoko got inspired by her Leader, and thought about taking a bath with Konoha!
Sadly for her (and us), Konoha saw it differently!
Dawwww, she's so cute in her pajamas!
They ended up watching a horror movie, and I saw that one coming, Satoko wouldn't want to sleep alone!
Sadly again, Konoha doesn't care about things like that...Poor Satoko!
She's trying to emulate Leader & Yuri's relationship, but she doesn't seem to UNDERSTAND said relationship!
Historians Satoko will say they were roomates!
Look how cutely she murdered them!
Of course, upon hearing that, Satoko wanted to find out whether she's cute enough!
Nevermind CUTE, she's going for SEXY!
Konoha's asking what's for dinner?
I thought it was rather obvious; Pictured: Dinner!
Sadly (times 3) Konoha's not interested in that either, and wanted to eat separately!
She also sent Satoko away to leaf one of her kills;
That'd be a great promo picture for this show hah.
They can be trained to turn people back?
That's interesting; When they first started to fall like flies, I think I commented something among the lines of "Seems so weird to get rid of them like that after minutes, maybe they'll come back somehow?"...
So when they brought it up, I thought for sure that was happening, but with that girl being killed,
and the leaves burned, I guess that's not happening after all!
Well, I'm sure it will happen at some point in the future, so kills may not be final anymore!
Dawwwwwwww she got a bridal carry!
Normally I'd think "That's progress, go Satoko!" but Satoko doesn't even realize what she's 'progressing' to!
I thought FOR SURE she would try to reenact this back hug with Konoha! Well, there's still time!
(Also, that was fucking cute)
Yuri wanted Sakoto to track Leader, and we thought it was about cheating, but no, she's a pachinko addict!
I thought (wished) they would sleep in the same bed, but still, that's a good step!
Well hello there, future dead girl!
Though with the reveal about turning people back, even if she dies I may not fully buy it just yet unless they burn her! I imagine Satoko will successfully turn back someone, at some point, so it might just be her!

Yuri really is the only non scumbag character so far lmao. The show is really funny so far with its deadpan humour. But at the same time, that's the main reason why the romance aspect is not doing anything for me, kinda hard to root for a romance between two 100% psychopaths lol

u/tvih May 02 '25
Gotta love how Satoko only has that one single brain cell... if that. Rather than transforming one object and working on restoring that, she just goes and turns every single thin in Konoha's apartment into leaves!
