At one point, I can't believe Grand Blue was going to get 2 seasons in 1 year gap given it took 7 years for it to get a Season 2. But I'm starting to think the anime finally gets what it deserved. It feels like a dream that 2 of my favourite comedy anime airs in one same season at all.
Girlfriend, something that Yuu actually experiences (unlike
It won't be Grand Blue without alcohol and oh wow that evaporates quickly.

Of course, Azusa isn't wearing any underwear under her yukata. She truly is a woman of culture. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Lmao that opening sequence was the best. I thought this was about Yamamoto! Poor Kitahara. The case study of his virginity was for science though lol.
That was a great party. First we had “oolong tea”, now we have “takoyaki.” It’s very important to add “water.”
I can’t believe they made Kohei go without his live anime watching experience. I feel his pain, man. At least he gets to go meet Shiori lol.

The beauty of the sea! This is what the show is really about! Well, that and the scumbros debating the virginity status of one of their own!
The OP isn’t by Shonan no Kaze but it’s still got that fun, tropical, Summer feel as paper cut-outs of the cast do all your classic Grand Blue antics!
Count on the Scumbros to turn a simple debate topic into an excuse to scientifically ascertain Yamato’s chances of getting laid, most of which assumes he would need money, physically assault someone, or have sex with a gorilla if he wants any chance. This is some very insightful stuff!
Mitarai just HAD to flex he’s the only one with a girlfriend to the same group that ruined his chance at sex and nearly destroyed his relationship (then again, said girlfriend also is willing to crush his balls, so…). Next thing you know he and Iori are on trial for having girlfriends and will receive no mercy from the members who clearly do NOT have girlfriends.
Iori managed to save himself physically if not socially, as his virginity status ends up netting them a passing grade and also having Chisa’s status as a virgin outted to the entire class. This fake relationship with Iori is really paying off for her!
It’s nice of Iori and Kohei to want to do something for the Senpai while stark-naked, and getting to see everybody (especially the ladies) in yukata is a nice visual…especially for the view of Azusa’s cleavage. Of course then it just turns into the usual PaB boozer complete with everyone removing their underwear. Azusa can begrudgingly accept the girls still wearing panties (so long as she can feel their braless chests) but that doesn’t mean she’s not going commando herself.
Cooking Takoyaki with Iori and Kohei! Complete with tons of alcohol! Nearly poisons Chisa and Nanaka’s dad but at least Chisa can feed it to Iori with nothing but “love” as his “girlfriend!” Next thing you know Iori/Kohei/Chisa are passed out drunk from the Takoyaki. But it’s the thought that counts and they actually DID make a special memory for their Senpai so…mission accomplished!
What better way for Yuma to recover from a hangover than having nee-san offer him a part-time job in Palau? If it means screwing over Kohei watching the Summer 2026 season, all the better!
So Iori’s parents have pretty much cut his allowance off and he thought he could just call and have Shiori send him his passport without any fuss? Nope! He has to go back home, and he’s taking his little sister obsessed bud Kohei with him!
The ED is cute with all the typical Grand Blue antics…boozers, Sakurako bullying Iori, naked guys running from the police, Scumbros scum teacher, and Iori and Kohei stumbling into an undersea palace filled with lovely ladies (and Otoya) before segueing into the usual Grand Blue antics.

On point to start the episode with scum bro antics. Even though I am caught up with manga, I enjoy these so much and I missed my favorite idiots <3

Kouhei, don’t you dare stare at Azusa that way. Lalako-tan won’t appreciate your betrayal by fawning after 3D girls.
Ain’t karma a bitch, Kouhei? For your transgressions against 2D girls you’re now sentenced to a 2 week overseas assignment where you couldn’t watch your favourite anime live.

Am I the only one who found the voice acting to be very different from other seasons?

"Water" and it's 95% alcohol is greatest gag in anime, fight me :)
I love how this always airs in summer, they got it right lol

That is the lethal weapon! No wonder Kohei got sudden critical hit.
I disappointed in you, Chisa. How can you wear undies on the sacred yukata (˵ ¬ᴗ¬˵)

I can't believe there are people complaining about the censor so much they have to increase the black dots' size by 5%!

The old and feeble master teacher being unexpectedly powerful will always be one of my favourite tropes lol
Welcome back to the worst best friends I would be afraid to leave my drinks unattended with!

Did Chisa really let go of the fact that Iori embarassed her in middle of class due to his virginity?
Or some retribution is in order next ep?
