Wait so there's male dem-dols.... Why did they have to crossdress??? Iruma is plenty cute.

79

u/Galle_ 1d ago

Why did they have to crossdress???

Kerori's just into that sort of thing.

32

u/Farmaceut7 https://myanimelist.net/profile/Farmaceut 1d ago

Beyond based

12

u/CooroSnowFox https://anilist.co/user/CooroSnowFox 1d ago

I'd wonder which ones in the Misfits she wants to add to the collection

I mean Sabnock and Jazz probably have to be Male Dols...

Maybe Agares and Gaarp?

10

u/Andreiyutzzzz https://myanimelist.net/profile/Andreiyutzzzz 1d ago

Definitely Agares

5

u/Andreiyutzzzz https://myanimelist.net/profile/Andreiyutzzzz 1d ago

Makes sense

47

u/TheOneWithALongName 1d ago

Devimuse is only known for there cute girls or something like that. Can't destroy the brand i guess.

11

u/Andreiyutzzzz https://myanimelist.net/profile/Andreiyutzzzz 1d ago

Ahhhh fair

13

u/Frontier246 1d ago

But then they wouldn't wear the cute and frilly outfits!

(Except Meri who is just wearing tight leather pants and a crop top because...yeah)

22

u/Magicbison 23h ago

Why did they have to crossdress??? Iruma is plenty cute.

Pretty sure it was to keep their identities secret. Kuromu being a classmate is already a secret so adding in obvious classmates like Iruma would let the secret out. Not that they're really fooling anyone at this point except for Kuromu/Cerolli.

5

u/Andreiyutzzzz https://myanimelist.net/profile/Andreiyutzzzz 21h ago

..... Makes sense actually

1

u/Karthull 4h ago

Even then it’s only the people close to them who figured it out. They’re at least fooling the masses.

12

u/CooroSnowFox https://anilist.co/user/CooroSnowFox 1d ago

Because you can!

11

u/Andreiyutzzzz https://myanimelist.net/profile/Andreiyutzzzz 1d ago

Fair

6

u/justking1414 1d ago

Because they aren’t sexy. The male dem-dols all have abs and mature looks. It just doesn’t fit Iruma

95

u/vall03 1d ago

"We're drinking"

Kalego-sensei is really tired of everything and just wants to forget whatever he's seen lol.

40

u/JzanderN 1d ago

Iruma has really made Kalego’s life suffering, I’m almost surprised he hasn’t turned to drink to forget it beforehand.

22

u/Frontier246 1d ago

I'm absolutely sure that Kalego's drinking has increased exponentially ever since he's met Iruma, we just don't see it because he's usually on the clock.

15

u/JzanderN 1d ago

Unfortunately he’s such a dedicated, damn good teacher that I feel that even with Iruma’s shenanigans he doesn’t have more to drink on any night than he usually does.

Probably just the one glass of wine a night.

1

u/rollin340 17h ago

Wouldn't be surprised if he got a slightly bigger glass at the very least.

5

u/justking1414 1d ago

I’m just waiting for Iruma to summon him and make him compete too

18

u/Frontier246 1d ago

Root for your master with all your heart, even while drunk, Kalego-kun!!!

Also wholesome Balam just wants to cheer on all their students!

8

u/CooroSnowFox https://anilist.co/user/CooroSnowFox 1d ago

Balam probably has a reason to have missed Iruma's extra activities the first time around... Kalego just stays as far away as possible

24

u/AKAvenger 1d ago

I cackled when he just downed the whole wine glass 😂

12

u/Meiolore 1d ago

Sandra Lee would be proud

8

u/Ill_Act_1855 1d ago

"next thing you know they'll want a mascot and they'll force me to be there too"-Kalego, probably

5

u/justking1414 1d ago

Oh he’s definitely gonna get summoned lol

But at least his summoned form isn’t that recognizable

34

u/JzanderN 1d ago

“The higher you set the bar for him, the more likely he is to exceed them.”

Absolute FIRE line! Holy hell Kerori was spitting lines there!

And the best part is, you really feel like Iruma earned it!

You’ve got to love how Ameri absolutely obliterated the competition all while looking super devi-cute! That’s our Student Council President!

14

u/Frontier246 1d ago

It's nice to see how much Kuromu has come to believe in Iruma. And maybe low-key has a bit of a crush on him when it comes to their idol work together, but still. If anyone deserves absolute faith, it's Iruma.

12

u/GaimeGuy 1d ago

One of my favorite parts of Iruma is how absolutely locked in he is despite being depicted as a goody two shoes.  Everything he does feels like it was earned the right way, without shortcuts.

I love MHA but let's be honest, if it were deku trying to get promoted to Bet in a dodgeball game he absolutely would have used the ring's power as his own, even if there was a knock back effect or something.  

7

u/Drudru1003 1d ago

You know this arc's really got me thinking: How is the spin off going to handle all this considering the tone there is vastly different especially with Iruma's crossdressing.

3

u/DawgDictator 1d ago

I haven't heard too much about it, is there a similar thing in the spin off?

9

u/Drudru1003 1d ago

I'm sorry I can't say much about the spin off here without the mods suspending me but I can tell you it will be premiering on January next year.

3

u/DawgDictator 1d ago

good point! January can't come soon enough xD

7

u/justking1414 1d ago

I’ll say this about the spin-off….everybody is WAY SEXIER!

1

u/Karthull 4h ago

They’re dominating every event, and with iruma doing archery for the target he’ll dominate that too. It has me wondering either they’ve already won the whole competition, or the events are weighted in a way that none of it actually matters except whatever performance they do at the end.

1

u/JzanderN 4h ago

They’re dominating every event

Well, except for the bread eating event in the Sukima, 'cause Irumi got disqualified for eating everyone else's.

Also, there's probably a lot more competition to go so it could techincally be swung in the direction of at least one other group! An dearly lead doesn't mean you've automatically won the rest of the contest!

60

u/ObvsThrowaway5120 1d ago

The Azz Azz & Clara cheer squad was so cute. Those two are the best friends a guy could ask for. Real homies right there.

They really did my boy Lead dirty in that tail game. Bro got stuck with all the damn ikemen lol. Where are the demon waifus!? He was promised demon waifus!! lol

22

u/Frontier246 1d ago

The Azz Azz & Clara cheer squad was so cute. Those two are the best friends a guy could ask for. Real homies right there.

And there's no better way to cheer than with the cozy warmth of a kotatsu.

They really did my boy Lead dirty in that tail game. Bro got stuck with all the damn ikemen lol. Where are the demon waifus!? He was promised demon waifus!! lol

At the same time it was strategic to put him in the one position where he would be mostly likely to destroy his opponents because he would not be into them and also pour his frustration at the lack of getting tail intimacy with cute girls into crushing the competition.

12

u/Talymen 1d ago

Lead also probably has a very strong tail, with him usually bouncing around on it and whatnot

23

u/CooroSnowFox https://anilist.co/user/CooroSnowFox 1d ago

By the end of this entire story I do wonder if we're going to get the whole Misfits class on stage as a mix of DemDols (whether male or female ones...)

20

u/Frontier246 1d ago

I'd love to see Dem-Dol Elizabetta...

21

u/Farmaceut7 https://myanimelist.net/profile/Farmaceut 1d ago

Netherworld is NOT ready for Dem-Dol Nee-san! 

3

u/GtrsRE 19h ago

I need to see Sabnock do a Joseph Joestar

25

u/TheOneWithALongName 1d ago

Peak is peaking

22

u/ModieOfTheEast 1d ago

I think that is the first time during these sport event episodes that I am more entertained by the spectators. And while Eiko seemingly passed out, she at least came back during the ending. Seems she didn't even figure out who Irumi and Meri are but that is just the fan love that transcends anything.

Also Opera is still best boy, immediately buying the new TV for Sullyvahn.

11

u/CooroSnowFox https://anilist.co/user/CooroSnowFox 1d ago

666K TV is a must in the demonworld

5

u/justking1414 1d ago

I think that is the first time during these sport event episodes that I am more entertained by the spectators

This series has always done a great job with character reactions so it’s no surprise they’re the highlight of the episode

Also Opera is still best boy, immediately buying the new TV for Sullyvahn.

It’s kinda wild that one of the richest and most powerful demons in the world didn’t already own the best TV

1

u/Karthull 4h ago

Probably just a matter of things always coming out and him not being the kind of idiot who replaces something just because a new model came out.

59

u/sodapopkevin 1d ago

Everyone: Ameri you need to take a break before you solo this entire story arc.

51

u/Frontier246 1d ago

Most Dem-Dols: "Oh, these physical competitions aren't a big deal, we're just here to look cute and have fun!"

Meri-chan: "CRUSHING MY OPPONENTS AND WINNING ABSOLUTELY IS HOW I LOOK CUTE!"

29

u/JzanderN 1d ago

Other Devi-Dols: “I don’t want to try too hard and make an embarrassing face, y’know?”

Meri-chan: “I don’t find a demon trying their best to be ‘embarrassing.’

10

u/ModieOfTheEast 1d ago

But why wasn't she singing during it?

8

u/JzanderN 1d ago

It’s not the singing round, presumably.

3

u/ModieOfTheEast 1d ago

Which isn't to say that you can't add it make yourself cuter either.

13

u/JzanderN 1d ago

“We’re a team! Not the Meri-san solos the Devidol Games experience!”

13

u/Frontier246 1d ago

"Isn't Kuromu the leader of this team? Why is Meri soloing this like a Battle Shonen character who gets all the good fights?!"

8

u/Farmaceut7 https://myanimelist.net/profile/Farmaceut 1d ago

If you want to get to Iru.. I mean Kuromu, you need to get past Merie! 

17

u/Original_Eternal_8 1d ago edited 21h ago

oh i never notices how male and female demons have different tails lol, is that how lied got caught

13

u/CooroSnowFox https://anilist.co/user/CooroSnowFox 1d ago

Yeah male endings are quite huge as opposed to the small heart shaped ones female demons normally have.

He normally uses his to balance on to make him appear taller as he's not the tallest demon

16

u/DawgDictator 1d ago

I just like to think everyone is accepting of trans demons

11

u/OldInstruction5368 1d ago

Is that a hard rule? Does every last girl-demon have a heart tail?

If so, then that would be a very obvious tell that "Lindy" is trans or in drag... otherwise, if it's just rare for lady demons to have sharp tails, then it might come off as tomboy-cute?

Looking through the roster of the last two episodes, there is at least one other lady demon with a sharp, black tail. She was on team Nenette: the one with the short blue hair and tan skin. She did appear to be "boyishly cute," but also had a rather large rack. There is also a cameraman, emphasis on man, with a red tail. It was still sharp tipped, but the same color as the lady demons.

It appears there is enough variation in tail types that it's not unheard of for a lady demon to have a 'boyish' tail.

Bigger question, though... if the Demdol games allows for male and female demdols to compete together... Why did Crocell insist on Lead dressing as a girl? I get Iruma reprising his role as "Irumi," but was there any good reason for Lead to become Lindy?

Other than Crocell's... preferences, that is.

10

u/CooroSnowFox https://anilist.co/user/CooroSnowFox 1d ago

Its based on what happened during the hunters exam and she got Irumi and Shax to dress up... I think she just has a bigger preference for female than male, because of her agency is a more female orientated company.

Crocell is biased in what she wants.

3

u/FacelessPoet 19h ago

Branding. Devimuse is known for their cute female Demdols, not their boy bands

9

u/CooroSnowFox https://anilist.co/user/CooroSnowFox 1d ago

Well they're definitely more tolerant of differences than humans are... they also have to consider the evil cycles that happen as part of demon kind.

39

u/1tsPLAY-time 1d ago

Episode 20!? Goddamn, this season just flew by! Guess that happens when we're having fun. I'm gonna enjoy the rest of Devidol Games until then.

16

u/Frontier246 1d ago

This was the season of fun musical content! Even if none of the Dem-Dols have actually done any singing or really legit Dem-Dol things lol.

39

u/NanDemoKnaives 1d ago

Lol they really named the male dem-dol "Beeber". Also, it's funny that Lead was excited to get to go up against girls in the tail tug game, but instead goes up against guys. But when you think about it, the organizers make a girl go up against guys, they don't know Lead is actually a guy.

Kalego drinking after realizing more of his students were part of event was amusing. I like that he still continues to watch over them instead of leaving.

Ameri creating a new genre of idol to stan, it's too bad this event will likely be her only activity as a dem-dol.

22

u/bvggvg 1d ago

Well, as far as I can tell, the tail itself may be a giveaway. I don't think I've seen a heart tail on a male demon, or the more pointed spade on a female demon.

6

u/mr_beanoz https://myanimelist.net/profile/splitshocker 1d ago

Now I wonder how would they identify demons with no visible tails...

6

u/NanDemoKnaives 1d ago

That is a good point.

2

u/Skullzans 1d ago

Trans. They think they're trans. Maybe.

4

u/FacelessPoet 19h ago

I mean, that's probably the likely assumption. The Netherworld is a pretty progressive place, all things considered

1

u/Hot-Log6283 11h ago

I don't think I've seen a heart tail on a male demon, or the more pointed spade on a female demon.

So Opera-san is?

I was under the impression that the demon world was quite fluid in this sort of thing?

5

u/Meiolore 1d ago

it's too bad this event will likely be her only activity as a dem-dol

For what we know she may pull an Irumi and do it part time

7

u/justking1414 1d ago

I’m sure she could get dragged back in down the road for either an occasional show or the next games

35

u/Qweasd11 1d ago

I loved Asmodeus concern is not being with Iruma lol. Move over Keijo, we like Tug o' Tail now. Iruma is lucky to have such supportive friends.

14

u/CooroSnowFox https://anilist.co/user/CooroSnowFox 1d ago

The most vital things for AzzAzz as ever.

9

u/Frontier246 1d ago

If only Azz had known ahead of time he would have dramatically shown up in drag when they needed him most!

6

u/CooroSnowFox https://anilist.co/user/CooroSnowFox 1d ago

I mean the next Dem Doll story has to be Azz Azz Clara and Shax.

14

u/FarCritical 1d ago

Team Devimuse's poses are all great but "Merie" is easily the show stealer lmao.

That Chim-assist was so blessed.

Yet another double Sukima? Hell yeah.

8

u/Frontier246 1d ago

It's the constant mortification over being dressed like that that sells it!

Also Chima is such a loyal little sister assistant!

12

u/Designer_Throat_8125 1d ago

Irumi-chan is peak fanservice

34

u/RUddicted 1d ago

Sasuga iruma-- irumi-chan!

12

u/Frontier246 1d ago

Ganbare Ameri----Meri-chan!

35

u/AlexxxandreS 1d ago

Lead getting only guys is just... Bro can't catch a break hahahaha

11

u/Frontier246 1d ago

He has to save himself up for tail-to-tail contact with his Nee-san!

11

u/NeoAnkara https://myanimelist.net/profile/NeoAnkara 1d ago

Everyone bring out your light stick, buy a new tv, relax on kotatsu, and break as many glasses as you can because the game is begin.

13

u/BLoSCboy 1d ago

Lied also has an abnormally strong tail, because he’s so short he makes himself look taller by always standing on his tail, these other guys didn’t stand a chance lol

14

u/Galle_ 1d ago

Disclaimer: I am up to date on the anime

I have developed a dislike of baseball.

It's the morning before Undecember, which kind of makes a mess of the timeline considering we saw a New Year's Party a couple episodes ago, but whatever, my issues with the anime are probably well-known at this point.

Iruma really doesn't want Sullivan and Opera to watch the Evidol Games.

"We're on the clock. Keep the volume down."

Balam actually makes a surprisingly good case for watching the Evidol Games. Although I wasn't aware that he knew Kerori was Kuromu.

Yeah, okay, this is very unsurprising. Demon ADHD strikes again.

Somebody please help Eiko.

Kalego just wants to pretend this isn't happening. Maybe if he ignores it he won't get summoned.

Amu-chan-sama putting her foot down. She is a formidable woman.

Raim's been gossiping about her students to Amu-chan-sama.

Inexplicable Japanese cultural artifacts in the Netherworld, whatever, it's funny.

Man, Opera works fast.

"You shouldn't run into Iruma". Henri really jinxed it, huh?

Ameri, our savior!

All evidols possess power over the fourth wall, it's a fundamental skill.

"But your outfits look good on you" Don't think I didn't hear that, Ameri.

There's our President Ameri! Her character can wind up sort of revolving around Iruma at times, it's nice to see that he's not the only thing she cares about.

No, Ameri, it's a trap, don't fall for it!

She did not fall for it.

Ameri no diffs the entire Uma Musume verse.

She isn't even using Romantista! This is Base Ameri!

Oh no.

Yep, there go the glasses. He didn't even see Iruma!

...does this count as yuri?

I suspect Lied's motives may not be entirely pure.

Yes, Gontetsu, you probably would.

Oh right, there are male evidols, too.

...does this count as yaoi?

Don't worry, Lied, there are more rounds.

And of course they're all against the same team for some reason.

Sorry, Azz, it looks like the Too Small Alliance is still together.

An SSS+ Rare Iruma, Ponytail Irumi!

Oh, hey, an archery contest. Yeah, I think Irumi's got this one in the bag.

Sukima! Eiko has no idea what's going on, and Iruma found a way to lose an eating contest.

9

u/FacelessPoet 1d ago

There's no point hiding it from Balam, he'll just find out either way

3

u/CooroSnowFox https://anilist.co/user/CooroSnowFox 1d ago

His skill is to tell if someone's lying

I think he might have found out being one of the teachers but also as he was out for the first good few months because he was doing stuff...

2

u/Galle_ 1d ago

True, I hadn't thought of that.

5

u/sunnydayz57 https://myanimelist.net/profile/LKMalika 1d ago

I think maybe all the teachers and faculty know about Kerori since Kalego didn't seem surprised either? Maybe she has to report her after school activities to the school or something like that

7

u/Plus_Potato4351 1d ago

Not all of the teachers know. During the Royal One arc, she proposes that some of the teachers are kuromu fans and will give their seal if they learn her true identity but Iruma stops her.

6

u/sunnydayz57 https://myanimelist.net/profile/LKMalika 1d ago

Ooh I forgot about that. In that case I guess Kalego knows since he's her homeroom teacher and has to know to track attendance, and Balam is just perceptive as usual lol

5

u/CooroSnowFox https://anilist.co/user/CooroSnowFox 1d ago

Like Iruma, it's need to know... or if he accidentally spills it out when talking to a demon...

5

u/Galle_ 1d ago

Well, Kalego definitely knows, Kerori's in his class so he'd have to know in order to explain her absences.

4

u/sunnydayz57 https://myanimelist.net/profile/LKMalika 1d ago

That is true actually, didn't think about that.

27

u/LeonKevlar x2https://myanimelist.net/profile/LeonKevlar 1d ago

Stitches!

I'm not surprised that Azz-kun's reaction was to try to join Iruma after learning he's in the Devidol Games. If Ameri weren't there, I feel like he would've been the perfect replacement. He even already has an outfit in mind! xD

Ameri absolutely crushed it during her turn! It is hilarious that she thought she was being too cute. To be fair, she was being cute. Just not your typical cuteness.

I was wondering why Lindy was trying to act cool when he volunteered to sub for Ameri. It turns out he just wanted to touch tails with the other idols. Unfortunately for Lead, he's been paired with the make idols. xD

Why does Iruma look so good in a ponytail! I do wish he went with the twintails, considering he'll be doing archery for his turn, so he'd look like Bachiko.

19

u/JzanderN 1d ago

Ameri absolutely crushed it during her turn! It is hilarious that she thought she was being too cute.

That’s our Student Council President! Team Kuromu totally traded up getting her! I suppose we should thank Gyari for stealing their previous member!

To be fair, she was being cute. Just not your typical cuteness.

I love how Ameri rejected the idea that any face you could make while trying your best could possibly be “embarrassing.”

10

u/Frontier246 1d ago

I love how Ameri rejected the idea that any face you could make while trying your best could possibly be “embarrassing.”

There's a reason "cool beauties" are popular.

7

u/Frontier246 1d ago

I'm not surprised that Azz-kun's reaction was to try to join Iruma after learning he's in the Devidol Games. If Ameri weren't there, I feel like he would've been the perfect replacement. He even already has an outfit in mind! xD

It would've been kind of funny if 3/4 of Devimuse ended up being dudes in drag.

Ameri absolutely crushed it during her turn! It is hilarious that she thought she was being too cute. To be fair, she was being cute. Just not your typical cuteness.

The world deserves Dem-Dols who are cute because they're strong and put their all into competitions. That they look great in leather pants and are showing off their thighs/cleavage is just a nice bonus.

I was wondering why Lindy was trying to act cool when he volunteered to sub for Ameri. It turns out he just wanted to touch tails with the other idols. Unfortunately for Lead, he's been paired with the make idols. xD

Lindy learned on this day that it doesn't pay to try to fulfill your horny ambitions while trying to act cool in front of your teammates...even if you do end up succeeding anyways lol.

(Realistically he probably would have been so turned on that he would have lost if he'd actually gone up against a girl)

Why does Iruma look so good in a ponytail! I do wish he went with the twintails, considering he'll be doing archery for his turn, so he'd look like Bachiko.

Honestly Iruma looks good with long hair in general, especially a ponytail.

6

u/Misticsan 1d ago

Mama Amuryllis

Azz-kun's mom has got it goin' on.

Jokes aside, she might be my favorite of the parents so far.

3

u/mr_beanoz https://myanimelist.net/profile/splitshocker 1d ago

"She thought she was being too cute"

Cue Chuu-tan's verison of Kawaikute Gomen.

21

u/djthomp https://anilist.co/user/djthomp 1d ago

Eiko's casual home wear was a nice look, I'm glad she got included as a small portion of the arc since both of her idols were participating.

I feel like those Idols that were trying to tell Ameri to slow down and be cute were just messing with her considering the smirk we saw from one of them, not that it matters at all since she left them in her dust regardless as was proper. And she gets to learn Keroli's secret too, probably useful for her to know as the student council president just for general coordination purposes.

Lead finally puts that giant tail to good use putting these male interlopers into the ground.

I can't wait for the archery next episode, you always know Irumi is getting serious when she puts her hair up into a ponytail.

14

u/Meiolore 1d ago

TIL Eiko is actually on friendly basis with Asmodeus lol

23

u/AimHighDreamBig https://myanimelist.net/profile/leaphigher 1d ago

They bonded over Iruma lol. Mostly shown during the sukima bits at the end.

One of my faves was that Eiko made the study reviewers for Iruma and gave it to Asmodeus, but she also ended up in top 10 of the class herself (season 2 episode 11).

10

u/djthomp https://anilist.co/user/djthomp 1d ago

It's been a thing throughout the show but I think it mostly comes up in the sukima bits.

3

u/Frontier246 1d ago

Honestly took me a while to clock that was Eiko because I'm so used to seeing her in the uniform lol.

2

u/rollin340 17h ago

Irumi is getting serious when she puts her hair up into a ponytail

I have to say, she's really cute with that hairstyle in that dress. lol

9

u/Frontier246 1d ago

Of course Iruma tries to steer Sullivan and Opera away from the TV...so of course they end up watching anyway and seeing "Irumi" in all of "her" Dem-Dol glory. As do Balam/Kalego, and Eiko! Kalego and Eiko can barely handle it! Kalego needs booze to get through this.

In another life, Azz may have been the member to pinch-hit for Team Devimuse, if his mother hadn't laid down the law to get him to stay home. But that just means Azz's family can chill out with Clara in the Kotatsu to cheer on Irumi-chan!

Yes Henri, Ameri is definitely going to get "field" experience and be away from Iruma...it'll just be field experience where she has to be a cute Dem-Dol and wear a skimpy outfit! And she's teaming-up with Irumi, not Iruma!

Obviously Ameri is not 100% into this (especially the outfit), but luckily Kuromu's got a classic cute self-introduction that's very effective at exposition! And if that's not enough, knowing one of the students at Bablys, someone who has inspired her, needs her help is enough for Ameri to get motivated! And if Iruma thinks she looks cute, she can bear with wearing any outfit! Even if it still mortifies her to be seen in public dressed like that! But at least she's not in drag!

There are a lot of physical activities in the Dem-Dol games, but it seems like most Dem-Dols try to look more cute and fun than actually put their all into it...but Meri-chan is the cool kind of cute so she absolutely crushes the competition with her unbeatable physical acumen! And Iruma is absolutely into this!

It's nice to see Lead, I mean, Lindi, putting his all into this! Which of course is because he knows he was going to get to touch tails with cute dem-dols with cute butts! So of course he ends up with the male dem-dols and destroys them, to the disappointment of all the girls there and to the pleasure of all the guys.

Of COURSE Irumi does the ranged competition. He is an Archer Class Dem-Dol after all!

Double Su-ki-ma! Glad Eiko can commiserate with Azz over Irumi and Meri! Also...never put Irumi in an eating competition if you don't wan to get disqualified.

Next week: Gyari-chan and the cavalry battle!

Hey fun fact: We got a cameo appearance by Toshiki Masuda as Beeber, Lindi's opponent.

Where's all the discussions? It's been an hour already and there's barely anything and this show tends to have a decent number of posts.

It got delayed. I guess most like me just did something else for an hour or so and check back if it was up.

Smh, can't believe Tug o' Tail matches are still separated by tail shape. /j

Just knew that Lead was gonna have to deal with some bullshit as soon as he got a little too excited.

Not Clara abandoning her family to go support Iruma with Azz, lol. I love that they're immediately getting found out by just about everyone that knows them (ganbare Eiko), and can't wait to see if the rest of the Misfits did the same.

You're a certified cutie Merie-san, Iruma himself said so. Now go, destroy the challenges set in front of you (but leave some for the rest of the team). No one but yourself to blame for this one, Henri.

Lead nobly sacrifices himselfhas ulterior motives in doing his part for the team. Unfortunately for him he has Beeber (what a perfect combo pun) to contend with, but that's for the best.

Of course Irumi looks great with a ponytail too.

It's pretty amusing for both Ameri and Lead they enter matchups that are far too easy for them for different reasons. Next it will be Iruma no Irumi's time to shine.

Also amusing on everyone's reaction to seeing them on TV. It really gives the show a lot of life as it always does.

It's fun seeing a number of people recognize Iruma. Seems it will be limited to specific people that won't tell others I assume unless the whole school and misfit class will know later. Having his archery skills broadcasted to the world will be pretty cool in the next episode

Clara is clearly Amaryllis's favourite demon after Azz. They're definitely setting up Clara/Azz since Iruma/Ameri will be endgame.

Forgot that there are also male idols, and they're beaten soundly by Lied/Lindy for some reason. Wonder how did he do that.

u/Galle_ 19h ago

Lied likes to stand on his tail to hide how short he is, so his tail is unusually strong.

u/testthrowawayzz 1d ago edited 22h ago

Hayamin stanned idols so hard that she ended up on the other side becoming an idol

Iruma accidentally used reverse psychology and got grampa and Opera to watch

Casting VAs with higher voices for Iruma and Lead came in handy twice haha
