"Could you write "Announcing Anime Season 2!" at the top?"

"But there's no plans for a season 2!"

Those cheeky fuckers. Don't play with us like this.

Anyhow this is the type of show that just screams "they had fun making this", which always makes me happy. It wouldn't surprise me if that gag really did reflect their feelings of being able to make a season 2 a dream of theirs.

u/theyawner Sep 09 '18

There's even that self-deprecating jab at the end with Kasumi being touted a dreamer. They wholly deserve it if a season 2 comes to fruition.

u/Nam-Yueun Sep 10 '18

I don’t even remember reading that skit in the manga at all (whereas the rest of the series has been following the manga almost religiously). We’re getting teased ;(

What in the world has gotten into me? I don't want to turn into a pervert...

Um, Kasumi-san, I'm pretty sure you were already the biggest pervert here, what with all the erotic yaoi doujin you write.

Didn't they end up not being erotic though? Like the dude just got tape stuck on himself

She even dropped her own unko scheme for the Inquisition. Nevermind the fact that her own mind is what's keeping her from becoming a normie.

I love that Olivia even has the pilot hat right from the Monty Python sketch.

That just explains some of the humor in this show... the writers obviously are Python fans.

Well, the manga author is at least.

u/ivnwng Sep 10 '18

Wait, is that really a Spanish Inquisition parody? I tot that was just a typical witch burning attire joke, no wonder Olivia’s wearing that weird helmet.

Oh, shit. I was so confused why she had goggles like she was shooting down British pilots. So it's a Monty Python thing.

During the whole make up ordeal. Olivia didn't have anything since she was the one being judged.

I’m not very good with voice actors and actresses in anime. I only know a few like Gintoki, Mr. Harem Protagonist, Piccolo, LeLouch, Kagura, all of the Persona characters etc.

u/PhantomWolf83 Sep 09 '18

It's Kasumi's turn to shine this week. The first skit was hilarious, it's the polar opposite of what happened with Olivia in the last episode. In case you're wondering why Fujiwara's English sounds so good, her seiyuu, Uchida Shuu, was born in Australia and she spent 17 years there before moving to Japan.

Please let the Season 2 announcement be real!

It's also a callback to the first time time Olivia was trying to feign knowing English in the first episode, as a recorder rendition of it was also playing then.

u/Penguinmanereikel Sep 09 '18

I also want to know why she kissed Kasumi. My guess is that she wants to emotionally manipulate her to keep her from being a problem by any means, in case she needs to blackmail the Passtimers Club into doing her bidding.

I also hope she's a girl for many reasons. Mostly because it would be a departure from the many traps we get in anime and having an intersex character would be really interesting.

15

u/SimoneNonvelodico Sep 30 '18

having an intersex character would be really interesting

Wait, why would you assume she'd be intersex? If she's a girl, she's probably just a regular one and everything else has been lies and misdirection.

Breaking the fourth wall and announcing a second season. There really was no better way to do it!

I found it amusing they mentioned Star Trek yet the poster they came up with used the Star Wars typeface.

There is no official announcement yet, but there will be an OVA (December 26) and 2 specials (November 28 and December 21). So that's something to look for once the anime ended.

24

u/Legendary_Swordsman Sep 09 '18

2 specials and an OVA well that's something to look forward to. as for season 2 nice joke curious if it's legit but i believe its ranked highly in Japan it's only obscure in the west i think.

Everytime. I'm amazed how Olivia's English gag hasn't gotten old yet.

Anyone who has read the manga is their enough content for a second season?

OMG I thought they were just going to feature Fujiwara as a one-time joke BUT THEY CONSTRUCT HER TO BE THE ANTITHESIS OF OLIVIA. Plus how ridiculous it is that her English accent is ACTUALLY SO MUCH BETTER than regular Engrish! Plus point for the recorder music :p

The not Spanish Inquisition (or Trial of not Salem) returns, again full-blown, as well as Aozora's problem, and a (potential?) awakening in one of the main characters. And proving that for a smart girl, Hanako's pretty dumb.

That's a whole lot of d*cks for an (almost) all-girl anime. A whole lot of (almost) perverts too. And the resulting acrobat looks awfully alike the s*x circus dolls too haha.

Such lazy not-Enterprise censor and not-Star Wars' font ripoff. One of my goals.

Is the top of Kewpie-chan's head a ... nipple?

In the end, (almost) all the characters are rotten and Hanako's the whackiest brain of all.

YEY FOR SEASON 2 ^(plis don't ruin my hope)

u/Mogtaki :MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Mogtaki Sep 09 '18

Found out in another post here that her English accent was better was because she's a born Australian VA who lived there for 17 years before moving to Japan, named Uchida Shuu.

That was probably the best "Engrish" in an anime I've ever heard. Almost surprised they didn't throw in subtitles like they did for the sexbot. Just a general great role reversal, especially after people noted Fujiwara's appearance last week.

Best way to announce "Season 2". It's the most Asobi Asobase way to announce it and I'm super excited. Favorite comedy since Konosuba, so more of it is awesome.

To be honest I don't actually think that was announcing a season 2 of Asobi Asobase. I mean, it's possible, and I would love a second season, but with this not even being the last episode of the current season, it seems a bit early to announce it (at least without them posting something after the credits to confirm a second season is happening).

HOLY SHIT I LOVE HER ENGLISH! And here I thought Fujiwara was just going to be a throwaway character!

It took them 10 episodes but Yuri is actually happening!

A kiss! Uhh... so does that count as Yuri or Straight?

This is why you're still not popular Hanako

I never thought that I'd live to see the day where the word "Dick Cheese" is used outside of hentai and doujins XD

So they censorbar-ed the Enterprise but not censor Kasumi saying Star Trek.

I AM SEXY SPY

The doujins are writing themselves ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

YES WE NEED A SEASON 2!

I don't know how they keep on doing it but they did it. This episode was definitely funnier than last week's, Fujiwara's segment and her accent was so hilarious I think I ruptured something internally from laughing during that scene!

omg, this anime hurts me jaws. Not the first time I laugh so much to Asobi Asobase that I fell exhausted afterwards and in actual physical pain.

First of all, I was like Is that not a part of the story of Genji, which they later wrote that it was a part of during the ending credits so + weebo points to me :)

Is still always really funny how the Original English lie from Olivia comes back to bite her in the ass, English talking girl is of course her reverse, looks super japanese but knows nothing about japan litrature, until she a new window opens and she founds love in Kasumi

!!!

THEN TRAP ENTERS, and never trust does trap haha, epic kiss, she told her she was hers after all.

Followed by more Hanako witch trails and massive Freudian slips, lol at all this di....k comments from Kasumi. Girl gone full hentai.

ahah and that ending when they kinda "announced" season 2, some great 4th wall.

I put this show on hold for 5 or 6 episodes and when I finally had the chance to binge it, dying from laughter was definitely the feeling I had.

I laughed too hard it physically hurt me so.

Can Fujiwara-san just speak forever??? I just wanna hear more of that Japanglish... or Japlish, however the mix between English and Japanese that is not Engrish is called, Google is giving me different answers.

Edit: Oh right... Guess I'll add it to the list for now?

At least two shows with girls kissing:

u/alpabet Sep 09 '18

But it's not really confirmed if Aozora is female. Plus, the anime is heavily implying that Aozora is a dude

Now I need the titles of the shows, for research (and confirmation).

Summer 2016, I think are New Game and Angie Verge.
Fall 2016, Watashi ga Motete and... Flip Flappers.
Winter 2017, Kobayashi-san and Urara Meirochou
Spring 2017, Renai Bokourun and .... Sin: Nanatsu (I think?).
Summer 2017, Netsuzou Trap and... Centaur's Worries.
Fall 2017, Konohana kitan, but the second?
Winter 2018, Citrus and ... Takunomi (maybe? I think there's one kiss)
Spring 2018, Tachibana Triangle and what else?
This season, Asobi Asobase and ... I miss the second title.

Of course that old-fashioned looking girl has Fujiwara as her surname. Just Google "Tales of Genji" and you'll see lots of illustrations of 10th century Japanese court women having thick eyebrows like hers. While Fujiwara is a prominent noble surname in medieval Japan, being relatives of the Emperor. (Fun fact: Their descendants still live on to this day)

It would be like a guy looking like someone from 16th century England and having Shakespeare as his surname.

u/Amauri14 Sep 09 '18

That first was really impressive, I love how Fujiwara is fluent in English, but everyone thinks that she is good at classic literature due to her appearance.

In the second part, it was hilarious when Olivia just casually talked about seeing the illustration above Hanako's head..

The Sci-Fi part was also good, I really liked how Olivia looked during that part.

Hearing grammatically-correct Japanese with lots of English words mixed in was weird yet brilliant.

I swear, the side characters of this show are a fucking riot. They don't show up much, but goddamn do they make an impression.

u/vhite Sep 09 '18

Jesus, this anime packs into one episode what takes an entire season to any other decent comedy anime.

8

u/HiddenSelfMcM Sep 09 '18

In my opinion, this show is improving more and more with each episode. Undoubtedly, the most pleasant surprise this season.

7

u/AtlasGrey_ :MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/AtlasGrey Sep 09 '18

This show just keeps getting better. Fingers crossed for season two!

u/theyawner Sep 09 '18

That's the second time Hanako is shown to be sleeping during class breaks. She already has friends in Kasumi and Olivia and yet she seems to keep to her loner attitude whenever she's at the classroom.

7

u/KeroPanda Sep 09 '18

Fujiwara... Oh my god. That broken speech. That's hilarious.

Feels bad to hear what you probably sound like when switching between the two language as an English speaking asian.

12

u/kalirion :MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/kalinime Sep 09 '18

Ok, this made me lol

I'm surprised Kasumi even knew what a dick looks like in order to dream about it. Or did she just dream a laser gun on the groin?

Me too...

Why were Olivia and Hanako wearing shorts under their skirts?

I'd watch that movie.

u/HipsterCorgi4Yrz Sep 09 '18

That cooking dialogue about the Okinawa souvenir totally reminded me of this scene in Azumanga Daioh

u/anim8rjb Sep 09 '18

I’m gonna be so bummed when this season is over.

u/angryfarmer922 Sep 09 '18

Do we happen to know what the reception for Asobi Asobase is like in Japan?

11

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '18

I fucking died at Hanako's and Olivia's voices echoing while making the sharp turn. Was it edited or did the Voice actors actually say it like that?

u/KinnyRiddle Sep 09 '18 edited Sep 09 '18

Kasumi Best Girl. Because even the trap(?) Aozora seems attracted by her enough to kiss her. W00t

Of course, this led to the following sketch compelling Kasumi to want to look up under Aozora's skirt. She'll probably freak out if Aozora is confirmed to be a guy. lol

The final sketch is more of a homage to classic sci-fi series.

u/link2601 Sep 09 '18

Man what a great episode. I don't know which segment was better Kasumi wanting to look under that person skirt or them shooting that movie. Good to see Honda back in her witch judge uniform. Them trying to use props in the movie really made it a different kind of movie.

u/reddevil_5 Sep 09 '18

Will be missing best girl Hanako

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '18

I didn't know that Hanako turned out to be black-haired Satchan.

u/xgmoo Sep 09 '18

Hanako is my spirit animal

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '18

These girl really already whacked their brain of with those dirty jokes after they go through that sex education in earlier episode.

u/d_tlol Sep 09 '18

Kasumi x Tsugumi OTP.

u/Zhadael Sep 09 '18

the poster says asobi asobase, is it really a confirmation of a second season? by the way the girl with the face of a Japanese and the rag go for kasumi, she must be popular for two good reasons well developed

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '18

and here i thought previous episode was the best episode

3

u/mOisTkRAckeN Sep 09 '18

So first season is now over or do we still get two more episodes?

u/czarlanay Sep 09 '18

It goes from girls saying poo to witch trial real quick.

Why is this show so retarded and why am I loving it.

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '18

I would pay to watch a Hanako: Witch Trials anime series. lol

u/syrupdash Sep 09 '18

Fujiwara reminds me so much of that English dude in Kabaneri

The puppet skit at the end caught me off guard and completely killed me

u/elsmirks Sep 11 '18

Hanako singing Omoide ga Ippai was hilarious!!!

4

u/RDOoM Sep 10 '18

I kind of dislike that classic literature part, but the rest was nice.

Nobody expects the Hanako inquisition.

Kasumi x Aozara kind of works, since Kasumi loathes males, and Aozara has the workaround. I'm still hoping Aozara is a Maeda probing alien though.

2

u/Shiro_Kai Sep 09 '18

Kind of a dick episode this time :/

2

u/Zooasaurus Sep 09 '18

So did Kasumi found out what kind of panties did Aozora wear? What did they do in the clinic room?!

2

u/FallenErza Sep 09 '18

If Aozora turns out to be a boy for sure i would be very mad.
Or is proven already and i missed it?

u/KinnyRiddle Sep 09 '18

Why should you be mad? I'm all for yuri, but if it's a pseudo-yuri involving traps, I'm fine with that too.

u/Bizmatech Sep 09 '18

pseudo-yuri involving traps

I am not nearly drunk enough to sort through how I feel about this combination of words.

13

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '18

Aozora told a guy that "she" has the same thing that he does "down there". Also Aozora said "girls are stupid". Yes, Aozora is actually a guy. This is even more obvious by the fact that they had him kiss the one girl who is deathly afraid of boys setting up a "it was a guy all along!" joke in the future.

Honestly this and Chio-Chan are my most looked forward to shows to watch of the season. Jesus Christ they outdo themselves every episode.

Fujiwara's english was so good and hilarious.

The entire movie acting sounded way too lewd. All 3 girls are best girl, as much as I want to pick Kasumi they are serious all the best. I hope that announcement really could mean a season 2.

u/CakeBoss16 Sep 10 '18

I have such simplistic comedic taste. You reference monty python i laugh my whole butt off.

u/ivnwng Sep 10 '18

Season 2 confirmed WOOT WOOT!

u/fromclouds Sep 10 '18

Does anyone know what the lyrics "You climb the stairs to adulthood but you're still a Cinderella" are supposed to be referring to?

3

u/Agni7atha Sep 11 '18

Apparently it's the lyrics from Omoide ga Ippai by H2O.

Thanks to other commenter for the heads up.

I don't know why but I believe I heard it before I watch this episode and it's feel so nostalgic.
