| konosuba is back baby !! |
| check out odd taxi |
| The party is totally back. Got more serious undertone this time.  |
| Seeing some people disappointed with the plot and humour of the first episode, but I thought it was the same old Konosuba we’ve come to know and love, plus connecting back to the movie was a nice touch and giving us a little recap was good after 5 years. Thought Kazuma still having nightmares about Sylvia “poking” him and realising his popular phase may not be quite what he expected was hilarious. His moments with Megumin were cute too. Not a fan of their ship, but definitely some wholesome moments today. The demon pretending to be a helpless little girl had that good old Konosuba bait and switch too 😂 As usual, so many funny quips and jokes that it’s hard to highlight one in particular, but I thought Aqua was hilarious today especially when giving out advice about how to make choices. For once she actually said something smart(still best girl). Can’t wait to see Darkness’ arc adapted starting next week! Solid first episode back. Studio looks like they got the same quality as the first couple seasons. |

| its a same-old, same-old episode, and like always, the op is such a banger |
 |
| The pacing, animation, voice acting are still as great as ever!! They make even more funny faces than in the previous seasons. Some might criticize it but I find it very fitting since It's a comedy!! |
| Just more classic Konosuba. I'm so glad this is back. It was one of the first few anime I watched back when I started, and it's like it never left, even though it's been quite a few years since the movie. Though the humour is very loud, this is one of those instances where I feel it works for me. Konosuba didn't feel the same with the Megumin spin-off, but with Kazuma back, it makes a heck of a difference. |
| Still as funny as ever! |
| The show got a new studio and so far it looks a lot better. I haven't always been the biggest fan of its comedy but this episode had some good laughs. Kazuma's PTSD really kicking in lol. |
| Episode was a pretty good catch-up and compilation of moments that weren't adapted in the movie, as well as setting up book 6's arc. Really glad the mimick/siren scene got animated, that was one of my favourite parts of the book. Love the OP too, my instant favourite over the other two I think. |
sonkun911 said: Anyone else felt like the episode was a bit oddly paced? It felt more like a compilation of events and quick gags instead of a story. It's kind of a remix of moments from book 5 that weren't adapted in the movie, set-up for book 6's plot and some anime original stuff. |
| Lol, Konosuba is exactly the same as I remembered it before. The same cheesy and stupid humor that makes you want to watch it even more with every joke, lmao. |
 |
| is the end of the episode supposed to be that abrupt during the letter? also, i dont know if were supposed to know this since its been a while and im an old ass man... why is Darkness so opposed to the diner? |
 |
A masterpiece, no doubt about it. |
| I'll just pretend I didn't see the leaked version. Like the dense harem protagonist who pretends not to see his tsundere friend's panties but still gets beat up anyway. My boy Kazuma is finally back, and he's on a quest to deal with his PTSD from getting poked by Sylvia five years ago! Crazy Exploding Girl is still crazy and exploding, and sends Kazuma into overdrive with her hand holding skill! Plant Girl encounter reminds us that Kazuma is still the only one with a brain, and puts him back to his senses so we can have more adventures! For some reason, Kazuma didn't notice Chris steal the money hammer! That's gotta be worth at least 5 or 6 of her pantsu! Amidst the ocean of dime a dozen shitty isekais, a refreshing parody is much appreciated. So glad to have this back! |

| It’s back! It’s finally freaking back! After so many years KonoSuba has finally returned with a brand new season! I missed this show so much! And it looks just as good as past seasons if not better. So glad we still have the same goofy expressions. I guess it’s not the studio name that matters but the staff who actually work on the anime... Always has been. The new OP is very good. But it'll take some time to get used to it. Still can't believe it’s finally here. They sure took their time making the 3rd season even though the source material was already complete. And it’s a bit disappointing to see that there will be 11 episodes only after so much time. But I guess I should be content that it's back at least. I just hope they'll announce season 4 and all subsequent sequels after this season ends... I know the episode was leaked for a while but I'm glad I held on for the official release. Makes the wait feel all the more worth it. It seems Kazuma is still traumatized from the events of the movie. Poor guy. I would also get some wild ideas if I got sexually harassed by a freak like that too. Man, why was Darkness so freaked out by that letter? Does her family have bad blood with Princess Iris or something? Either way, I'm excited to find out soon. Having KonoSuba, Slime and Mushoku Tensei air on the same season feels like I'm getting spoiled. Feels so good to have all these good isekai shows to look forward to. I just wish Re:Zero was also airing. But maybe having it air near the end of the year alone is a good thing cause then all the focus will be directed towards it. Hope we'll get a new season of Isekai Quartet soon too. |

| I'm so happy that we got new season. In my opinion stylistically/ animation quality wise it's worse than productions we had from J.C.Staff or Studio Deen, but even though, studio Drive did a good job anyway. I hope it will be even better later! |

| @Autoparts_22 I like new season very much but contrary to your opinion character design and animation quality were much better from Studio Deen or J.C.Staff (movie). |
| Finally! they're back! funny episode. |
| It's been a long wait, but it's great to have Kazuma and his hectic friends once again for another season of Konosuba! =D The Megumin spinoff last year was a good starter for what's to come and this first episode for the third season was a reminder of how wacky and hilarious the comedy antics are when Kazuma, Aqua, Megumin and Darkness are all together. The facial expressions in particular always hits home and leaves me in heavy laughter. As always, another season also means a new OP song from Machico and, like with her previous songs, this one is also great. It might be only 11 episodes, but this season is going to be one entertaining adventure, that I very sure of! |
| I missed this trio |
 |
| I was a bit "concerned" about the show coming back after so long since I didn't really enjoy the Megumin spin off that much besides Yunyun and Komekko but the show is still pretty funny and I can't get enough of their facial expressions, granted I didn't laugh as hard as before but still a good chuckle here and there, I'm glad to have more of Darkness and Sora voicing Aqua. |
| It really is a shame this leaked early, it kinda feels like there isn’t as much hype because of it, but I plan on waiting for the actual releases like I did with this first episode so all is good for me at least lol. And this was a very fun first episode, the comedy may have been a bit chaotic but the plot was simple enough to ease into the new season, it really is nice seeing Kazuma and the gang together again, although it was just last year I got into this series it still feels like it’s been a while lol. And it looks very good too, it’s probably nearly identical to how the first two seasons looked, I’d have to have them side by side to tell exactly but they nailed the classic look for sure, and I’m happy that I do still find the gags amusing too, I see some folks that no longer find it funny and that sucks for them, I however will be enjoying this just like the Megumin spin-off last year. This episode had lots of good bits, Kazuma’s Sylvia PTSD was funny with the several stages it had, with him finally getting over it by the end of the episode, and I think I especially liked the plant loli monster bit, she actually was pretty convincing despite Kazuma’s warnings, we saw the true face later tho which gave us a great Kazuma reaction lol, the funny faces were a plenty for sure which I appreciate. And unfortunately that mallet they found was snatched by Chris, I absolutely can’t imagine why she would do that and I’m not lying right now lol, and at the end we got what I’m assuming is a tease for the first big plot of this season which I’m looking forward to seeing as Darkness was spooked from that letter lol. And the OP at the end was very very good, love the visuals along with the song by Machico who has been doing the OPs since Season 1, I’m not sure if I’d say I like it more than the other two yet but it may very well get there over time, what I’m really excited for tho is the ED because Konosuba has some great chill EDs, I’m hoping this one carries that torch. |

| Fun start, Kazuma won't become a monk after seeing that fake scam plant monster girl lmao, and RIP the infinite money generator hammer that's the worst thing you can lose from stealing xD Can't wait to see the meeting with the princess now |
 |
| Need more useless goddess Aqua asap |
 |
| now this is what i've been waiting for. changing studios always poses a risk of things being lost in translation and decreased in quality but if this one episode is any showing on how this season will play out, i don't think that's the case. they nailed everything. the humor, the timing, facial expressions. all the main voice actors are back and doing their thing. in studio drive we trust |
| Good and old konosuba is back. |
| I like this animation, I expected something worse. |
 |
| Glad to see this back, and really glad to see they are still pushing the Megumin ship. It's very rare for the loli to win in a harem setting, so I'm rooting for her. And honestly, it's the only ship that makes sense at this point, since Megumin is the only one who had developed any kind of relationship with Kazuma outside of just her schtick. |
| "I have got a gender equality punch with your name written all over it" We're sooo back. Need to ready my stomach to take it all. |
 |
| Glad the main crew is back! Pretty nice return to form for konosuba after that spinoff. Surprised Kazuma remembered the funny movie villain. |
 |
| God, I missed these dumbasses. |
