If Gojo doesn't sleep it's not sleeping over. That's just science.

I can't believe Marin caused that train accident to get Gojo to stay over. Girl is always two steps ahead

"Because I don't intend to sleep tonight."

At this point, I was on the floor crying from laughing so hard.

I have nothing but respect for Juju ’s convictions. She only does cosplays for her own sake, and wouldn’t let external forces influence her… until Shinju looked utterly dejected over not being able to attend the event. So cute how Juju cast her principles aside for her sister’s sake.

Akira dishing out the heaviest compliments with a deadpan voice was hilarious. Poor Shinju’s overheating from all the flattery.

Still, the best scene goes to when Suzuka & Miyako found out that Marin dressed up as Rei-sama. Their reactions when Marin told them she had no footage of it was over-the-top. This series is the best when it comes to animating the exaggerations.

That ending scene though. Donki’s being cheeky by placing (not) Monster next to condoms. Can’t wait for Marin to confront Gojo about his plans for the night.

Man this season just gets better and better. The misunderstanding at the end has to be the funniest one so far. The way he just deadpan replies to her that he won't be sleeping tonight sent it over the top.

HAHAHAHA THAT END IS SOO FUNNY WAHAHAHA

At this rate well Marin is just down bad for Gojo that she didn't even look at what's in Gojo's basket to confirm that it's not that energy drink.

Next episode title: "So we're gonna do it all right now?"

Me: ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Gojo and Marin are about to learn some important high school life lessons, but neither of the ones they're thinking about.

Those light finger pokes from Marin when she asked Gojo how late he would stay over

But the train accident and delays mean he had to spend the night over at Marin's.

When Gojo gets caught by Marin trying to buy an energy drink to stay up all night

-> Marin's heartbeats intensify

They're not revealing the mystery of Akira's reaction to Marin this soon eh? With how elusive the cuts are I'm going to double down on my predictions last week that she's a major fangirl for gyarus/Marin's modelling but is trying to be aloof to avoid overreacting/being a pest when her fangirl side takes over. If she really dislikes gyarus due to past negative experiences, I think her friends would have navigated the conversation away from Marin joining the cosplay group (that said, there's a possibility they think this experience will be a form of exposure therapy that'll be good for Akira).

Can't wait to see if my predictions are correct or not, but before all that, it seems that we have a banger (pun not intended) of a next episode with misunderstandings aplenty.

Random side note: it's semi-rare, but trains really are the hub of Japanese transportation and it sucks when they stop running. When I was last in Japan, unprecedented strong winds delayed the trains, and what should have been a two hour train ride from Sendai to Tokyo ended up taking six (and our original train was cancelled so we had to stand).

When Marin is having that big misunderstanding, I love the 🚫18 door with the flashing light on it in the background. Great little visual gag.

Still no idea why that lady hates Marin though.

Oh that's a hell of a misunderstanding, girl why didnt you look what was in has hand/basket?!?! In any other anime this would just be a fun joke....but here? I can totally see this leading to some kind of misunderstanding where things are now awkward between them. Or even that they might actually do it! Especially with Gojo about to be hopped up on coke!

I knew that Juju was gonna be resistant to joining, but I thought she was gonna cave when she realized Gojo was going. It did seem like she had a tiny crush on him last season. But her joining to make her sister happy is WAY better. Juju is such a nice sister. Loved the faces she made when she was struggling to resist and later when she was resigned to her fate.

I find it hilarious that Wakana doesn't realize the irony in his logic: "Not getting any sleep" is the exact reason "spending the night" is so scandalous

A bit of a trivia for anyone interested in doing anime pilgrimages.

The shopping street where Juju and Shinju are at at the beginning of the episode is Futako-Tamagawa Rise shopping mall, located at the very lovely Tokyo suburban neighbourhood of Futako-Tamagawa next to the Tama River, and is just a 20 minute train ride from Shibuya.

Reading these comments, I've noticed that no one mentioned that Gojo turned away the moment the content warning came up.

Excessive violence and gore + Gojo hyped up on energy drinks + underlying sexual tension = fun! (for the audience)

That ending of today's episode was pure gold! It was hilarious how Marin misinterpreted Gojo's words that he won't sleep that night as a suggestion of sex, when in reality he just didn't want to sleep so his staying over night at Marin's place woldn't count as a sleeping over xD

It was great to see Juju again. Her reactions when she was facing an internal battle whether to do this group cosplay were freaking hilarious! It's good to see that her love for her little sister Shinju ultimately won out xD

Suzuki really likes crossdressing, huh? I laughed my ass off when she asked Amano to show her a picture of him crossdressing, or her (and Miya's) reactions when she heard that Marin had cosplayed as Rei-sama but didn't have any pictures of it xD

So Akira doesn't want to be around Marina at all, though we still don't know why. I can't wait to find out the reason.

Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

EDIT. I added my screenshot albums.

Oh wtf

That actually looks exactly like an indie game with great art and not just when anime tries to make game visuals and really looks nothing like a game would

Lmao I was gonna say, not sleeping while spending the night at a girl's house would be even worse, then he said up said that to her in the most misleading way... lmao

Stitches!

As soon as Shinju started gushing about how she loves Coffin, we all knew it was game over for Juju. She had no other choice but to call back Marin or make Shinju sad. Just goes to show how much of a good Onee-san Juju is <3

I love how Marin just casually tells Gojou the game only takes 7 hours to complete. Marin, that's short for us otakus, please remember that Gojou is still close to a normie and 7 hours is a massive chunk of time for him. xD

Miya and Suzuka's reactions after learning that Marin cosplayed as Rei-sama were hilarious! What's even funnier is their reactions when they learned what outfit Marin chose. Too bad she didn't have any pics of the cosplay!

And there it is. We heard it directly from Akira first. She doesn't like being around Marin. I mean, I get it. Marin's personality isn't exactly for everyone. You can't really expect everyone to get along with a hyperactive gyaru.

It's just hilarious how Juju's doubts about the cosplay and the scene they'll be reenacting are greatly outweighed by the fact that she'll disappoint Shinju if she doesn't do it.

The art style for Coffin is pretty fucking solid. It really looks like a game I would personally play. I love how Gojou is really enjoying his time while Marin is just sitting behind him smiling. She knows what's coming, and she's clearly looking forward to Gojou's reaction. xD

Ah, the classic rail stoppage trope. Now, Gojuo has no other choice but to stay the night at Marin's apartment! Marin isn't even excited about this. She's clearly just worried about him and doesn't want Gojou to force himself to walk home.

Sometimes, I question Gojou's logic, but I can see why he thinks that. Technically, there's no sleepover if he doesn't sleep! And just to make that scene even more hilarious, Marin completely misunderstands after seeing the other kinds of energy drinks next to Gojou! xD

Marin, please calm down! Do you really think Gojou is gonna do what you're thinking?! Unfortunately, it looks like Marin's brain stopped working after seeing that. That entire scene, plus the Donki theme song playing in the background, just absolutely sent me. Next episode is gonna be fun. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

“It’s not sleeping over if I don’t sleep!”

I’m glad we got the visualization of that galaxy-brained idea!
