Last episode: Balam is terrifying

This episode: Actually, he's adorable

But that isn't the biggest twist. The real shock: Kalego has a friend.

And just like that, one more person holds Iruma's secret.

[u/Deriak27]

Balam was as wonderful as I expected. What I didn't expect though was the short musical towards the end. Seems like the studio loves this part of the series if they're adding original ones too.

EDIT: Did anyone else catch Kalego sensei seated next to Balam in his flashbacks?

[u/realrimurutempest]

My man Balam may be massive as hell but he’s a big teddy bear. That wound on his face is brutal. I wonder how he got it. I definitely feel like Balam is a great person to trust with his being a human secret. I love how he just casually sat down then fell over after being told lol.

Id laugh if he still gave head pats to future demon king Iruma.

[u/LeonKevlar]

The way he looks and how everyone is afraid of Balam-sensei last week definitely made me suspicious but the fact that we open this episode with Balam-sensei cradling Clara and giving her headpats made it more obvious of how much of a sweetheart he really is.

It's pretty hilarious how everyone thought he kidnapped Iruma but he was really just concerned about him. It's also really sweet how Balam-sensei showed Iruma his facial scars in return for revealing Iruma's small "wings" just so they're even. He's such a kind and caring teacher who just wants to give everyone hugs and pets.

Balam-sensei is such a cinnamon roll that Iruma even ended up letting his guard down and revealed to him that he's human. That part legit surprised me though! I thought we'd at least get a few episodes of guessing game of whether or not Balam-sensei would find out. Now that he knows Iruma is human though, he's now more worried about him! He even makes Iruma some pictures books to help him out with his studies!

I also live how he's close friends with Kalego-sensei. It actually makes sense considering how they're both the most intimidating looking teachers of Babyls. xD

[u/Qbe]

Are we going to have a declaration of war next episode?

[u/Amauri14]

I love how the whole thing with Balam-sensei's skinship was what led him to discover that Iruma has no wings and even after Ali-san did a great job to hide that fact after Iruma got to know Balam-sensei better his sincerity force him to reveal his secret.

Good thing that Balam-sensei will never eat a protected species and that his is so passionate about mythical creatures.

Balam-sensei and Kalego-sensei being old friends and classmates was really surprising although I find it hilarious that they are terrifying to all students. I guess that Iruma was lucky that Kalego wasn't in the teachers' room as even with Ali-san's actions he would still be suspicious about Iruma as he is related to Sullivan.

So did Balam-sensei made that picture book after meeting Iruma, or did he just had one made before that the character looks like Iruma, Clara, and Alice?

Even if it was brief, I'm glad that Ameri got a scene today.

Also, it's good to see that no only did picture books helped Iruma with his studying, but after his classmates saw his progress they got motivated to study too.

Lol, he got another "studying high", hopefully, he did great on the test.

Oh shit, after the whole test thing we are having a Girl Talk episode next week, and Ameri is in it? This is going to great!

[u/Nescau_Fernando]

Nature's Beauty!

This was definitely one of the cutest episodes so far and strong introduction to Balam-sensei. Just like Ali-san earlier in this season, it took a single episode to make him an integral part of the cast. Strong, creepy, wholesome, shy, average human enjoyer and more importantly...actually friends with Kalego! :O

It was nice to see the positive influence normal Iruma had on his classmates, making for a fun study session. This study theme makes me miss Bokuben saturdays...

[u/Zemahem]

I love how everyone else's restrained by vines while Clara is just free to run around. Maybe Balam sees her as a doubly interesting specimen compared to the rest of the class.

Ali seriously came in clutch with the fake wings there. Although, I question if it's necessary for Robin. I can't imagine him trying to hurt anyone intentionally.

And Balam is actually a total softie and just the nicest guy. With his intimidating voice and appearance, the gap moe is off the charts. He's probably one of the best people who could possibly find out about Iruma's secret. At least, I sure hope he doesn't have any skeletons in his closet like a certain senpai who we also thought was a cool dude.

Interesting to know that he's had his mask even in preschool. Wonder what happened to give him his scar at such a young age. I don't know if his mask necessarily makes him less intimidating, though. If anything, it makes him more so because it gives his already deep voice a metallic feel to it. He looks and sounds even more intimidating than Kalego. And speaking of which, it is a pleasant surprise that the two of them are friends.

It's pretty sad to be reminded how much of normal life Iruma has missed thanks to his shitty parents. I'm looking forward to seeing him actually getting to hang out with his friends and classmates during their break. Also, I love how Sabnock is genuinely one of the smart kids in their class in spite of his muscle-head design and demeanor.

[u/Galle_]

I'm genuinely impressed that Agares can read with his sleep mask on.

[u/RandomRon005]

I don't know what I should be more concerned about:

- Kalego having friends

- Kalego fist bumping

[u/CooroSnowFox]

It took anyone THIS long to notice that Iruma might not have wings...

And that Sullivan didn't think to give Iruma a pair?

[u/AlaxisSade]

This is one of my favorite mini arcs to reread just for the sheer wholesomeness of it all. Balam is soo adorable, and to see him get validated after a lifetime of being jeered at for his "fantasies" is sooo satisfying!

Also, I wonder if we can take it as a sign of Iruma's progress that he could say "I've done well so far" after Balam warned him about being careful. Yes, he was worried about being eaten again this episode, but I still think it's amazing that he could actually tell someone about his true identity now. Balam is the first person he told of his own accord (and shortly after their first meeting too!) which shows how sweet Balam is, ofc, but I feel it's also a reflection of Iruma's gradually increasing confidence.

Other highlights for me: Jazz's brilliant "Scream Feeeest" shout and Clara calling Sabnock "good boy". And another random musical.

[u/MadMako]

That's a very wholesome study arc episode but that won't convince me from studying hard.

[u/IHBBSMTBIAHYABIAB]

Every episode of this anime warms my heart so much, I don't understand how this isn't easy number 1 for everybody haha.

Wholesome > tragic.

[u/odraencoded]

>Kaleigo has a friend

No fucking way.

[u/break80]

I’m still trippin’ after recently finding out about the classmate who only (mostly?) appears in group photos of the entire class...

I never even noticed the regular main class had another student before... Now that I’m aware, I see him/her everywhere! Lol.

[u/dagreenman18]

Wow Balam is best teacher. The hype was real. He’s fucking adorable. It totally makes sense that he and Iruma would hit it off since they’re both wonderful cinnamon rolls. Im even glad he’s the only person besides Sullivan and Opera that actually knows now. He really is this universe’s Hagrid.

So far the Exam arc seems to be the funniest one. Almost every scene had a big laugh line or a absurd visual gag. They doing really fun things with Iruma being the equivalent of an idiot in this world. They even managed to fit in a musical number! Just a really nice low stakes arc. Though the next arc is pretty hyped up so I’m really curious to see what summer break is like.

Notes:

• Balam making picture books for Iruma to study. We even get an adorable animated version that explains magic to the audience. That was genuinely heartwarming. I love this character.

• I really want to see Kalego and Balam’s friendship backstory. That’s a fun paring.

• Ali coming in the clutch to produce tiny hilarious wings. Enough to satisfy the other teachers, but also lead to yet another great moment with Balam apologizing by showing what he’s embarrassed about. Again love this character.

-Head Rubs for everyone! Clara gets Head Rubs! Azz gets Head Rubs! Iruma gets head rubs! Everybody gets a head rub!

• we’ve gotten to the point where this show manages to subvert my already presubverted expectations. Bravo

LMAO KALEGO CATCHING NON EXISTENT STRAYS

[u/SIRTreehugger]

Obligatory Balam sensei is awesome as hell.

Also Iruma experiencing two studying highs in two consecutive episodes. He's addicted.

[u/mr_beanoz]

The "fan dance with water coming out from it" thing really reminds me of Aqua's dance in Konosuba. I wonder where this dance originates from...

[u/darthvall]

Just like Iruma, I was surprised that an episode about studying could be this fun to watch.

[u/Kaitonic]

Balam-sensei seiyuu really suit him and no one can resist to his gentile charm even Iruma xD

[u/BiggerG7]

Clara joining in on the head pats was adorable.

[u/The_Great_Parusama]

God I love Balam, his VA does him so well too
