English Dub Review: Kaguya-sama: Love is War “Miyuki Shirogane Wants to Mediate/ Kaguya Wants to Distract Him/ Kaguya Preemptively Strikes”

Overview:

Kaguya makes a big fuss when she learns that Shirogane was invited to a karaoke group date and orders Hayasak to remove him from the venue. Dissatisfied with such treatment yet unable to refuse her mistress’ instructions, Hayasaka joins the group.

Our Take:

Uh oh, Fujiwara! Something tells me that Shirogane is going to want to practice his rap skills after being dissed so hard. His singing skills are just average apparently so that’s a huge step up from how bad they were previously.

I think that is one of the best things about this anime. It nails a lot of things that some of my favorite sitcoms do well. In some ways, I feel like I’m watching an anime version of How I Met Your Mother because of the long-running gags that keep popping up. From Fujiwara’s inclination to cheat at games and the Shirogane training sessions, I’m here for them all. I hope this anime runs the entirety of the manga cause it will definitely be a classic if it does.
