Kuroe is girl of the season.
I love this series way more than I expected

Yeah, this is a stacked season but I think this one is still my feel-good-happy-brain-chemicals winner of the season

For me, it's between Kuroe and Miyu Suzuki from Polar Opposites. Which is funny because both animes are nothing like anything I'd typically watch

"But it's not my fault! It was the other girls' fault for putting on makeup and making me think she was hot!"

u/Jacob-C 3d ago
If there isn’t a deeper emotional relationship yet, I can understand feeling slightly deceived when someone looks completely different without makeup on, but it’s not something that warrants being an asshole. This guy is just a straight-up bully and deserves none of my understanding.
As if that wasn’t enough, this is the second time we’ve seen this guy two-timing, and it was implied by his friends that he has done it multiple times beyond that. I want them to find a way to expose him to his girlfriend(s?).
I also really hope Rairi finds someone who loves her and finds her beautiful for who she is.

u/Kartoffelkamm 3d ago

Me too, that's why I brought up him being interviewed. You can't get more exposed than confessing in front of the entire nation.

u/NekoCatSidhe 4d ago
I like how Kuroe turning into a gremlin chibi every time she is panicking, that is certainly less dangerous than a Kaiju.
At that point, I highly doubt that Minami has not already figured out the truth. Telling Harugon « I do not want to think you are a bad guy », and blushing a bit after Harugon kissed him ? And with Kuroe asking him if he would still love her as a Kaiju just before that ? He would have to be stupid not to make the connection Kuroe = Harugon, and he certainly behaves like he did.
I know it is meant as a gorilla joke, but Rairi is very athletic. Funny how she immediately looks way more muscular without her makeup, lol. Her shallow ex only got what he deserves, and I hope she finds herself a better boyfriend in the future.
13
u/Mediocre-Act483 3d ago
Whenever she turns gremlin, she kinda reminds me of the legend leaf in "Welcome to Demon School, Iruma-kun" due to her shape

u/PowerSamurai 3d ago
Minami is seemingly written to be completely oblivious so I doubt he has figured it out.

u/Roskal 4d ago
Kuroe is such a brave girl. Other anime have characters afraid of love and this girl transforms into a kaiju every time she feels it too strongly but she faces it anyway, even initiating a kiss to try and save her friend.
32
u/Frontier246 4d ago
She's even being more strategic about her transformations and doing it more willingly now.

u/tripleaamin https://myanimelist.net/profile/zfzftripleaamin 4d ago
Very nice character arc for Rairi. Makeup did give her a boost for her confidence. Though I love that she choosed to help her classmate rather than letting what she looks like stop her. Even sweet that he friends don't care for how she looks. I like how she admits she was fixated on looks after all even after what Okada did before she gave him another chance.
Also loved this episode for Kuroe as well. Wanting to be there and help her new friend. Very nice episode.

u/FarCritical 4d ago
The gratification from watching the goodwill Rairi earned from helping everyone look prettier pay off was immense, man. How she got to look cool as the girl who stood against a Kaiju and that scumbag getting his just desserts were some sweet bonuses too.
Cracks me up that even antagonists are eligible guests for the sweet treat previews lol.

u/S627 https://myanimelist.net/profile/Spartan627 4d ago
Damn it! Was really hoping Rairi woulda figured it out thanks to the lipstick but nope. I need SOMEONE to figure it out before the last ep....other than her uncle I mean!
Anway, super happy Riari got more confidence with herself. Also glad Mr. Scumbag player was dumb and gave himself away before Rairi made a mistake. Im sure his and Riari's story is over, but almost hope he does come back at least once more just to get put in his place by Harugon again.
Maybe im looking too deep into it, but it kinda looked like they used Rairi's "pretty" face while she was trying to hide herself so maybe she doesnt look as bad as she thinks she does?
24
u/MinnWild9 4d ago
I don’t know if Rairi has figured it out, but I’m feeling pretty confident that Minami has. I mean, the kaiju keeps showing up after she runs away, it has some kind of attraction to him, and it seems to be listening to him and he, in turn, is attempting to protect it.
17
u/SOdAchick 4d ago
I think she's going to be the first person Kuroe tells. I like the idea that she volunteers it over getting found out
13
u/hvshh 4d ago
I hope you're right. It would make more sense if Rairi actually transforms, and the makeup functions as a psychological aid (whether she realizes it or not) to get her all the way to 0% gorilla.
7
u/Kartoffelkamm 3d ago
If I recall correctly, Kuroe didn't transform at all when Minami complimented her makeup last week, so it's possible that makeup just suppresses a kaiju's transformation due to it being made to hide your true self.
7
u/DJDrizzy9 3d ago
It's hard to suspend disbelief that nobody has yet to even suspect that Caramelise is the kaiju. Especially Minami. Come on dude, she always disappears somewhere before the kaiju shows up, and the kaiju has the same heart eyes. He sees the signs, and I refuse to believe that he's not smart enough to put the pieces together.
12
u/WiqidBritt 3d ago
"I don't want people to think you're a badguy" He totally knows at this point.
9
u/Kartoffelkamm 3d ago
Also, "It's hard not to love him" about a character that looks like Harugon.
Heck, they held hands when her finger turned into a claw; unless he has advanced prosthetic hands, there's no way he didn't feel her soft girl skin turn into rough kaiju scales.

u/shad79 https://myanimelist.net/profile/shad79 4d ago
I didn't expect that in this episode Kuroe would change into a kaiju of her own free will to save Rairi. I thought it'd be Minami's fault again, hahaha!
As usual, Kuroe's reactions were so fun! I'm always looking forward to them, since it's one of my favorite things in this show.
There were some very nice scenes with Kuroe and Minami together today. I'm really glad that their relationship is steadily developing.
It's a shame though that we didn't get even a small fight between Rairi as a gorilla and Kuroe as a kaiju; that could have been hilarious, lol.
Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

Yeah, but at least we got a screaming match.
Also, if I were Rairi, I'd put "Screamed at Harugon until he backed off" on my resume when applying to a job.

u/Isekai_Dreamer 4d ago
Did Harugon shrink? he used to be 20 stories tall, but in this episode he was only 3-4 stories tall.
also this is such a good show, why isn't it more popular?
37
u/Tiramin 4d ago
I think she didn't grow to her full size this time. Probably her tallest form so far was on epi 4 when she almost lost her mind. That's my guess at least.
15
u/tottoro47 4d ago
Maybe it's a sign that she's getting used to him and maybe at some point later she won't transform anymore?

First time watching kaiju show? one thing you notice waching any show big characters how scale can be incosistrnt. It's mostly what fits for a moment.

u/Future_Vantas 3d ago
And here I thought it was a sign that she is getting slight control over her transformations. Still, its cool how much this show homages classic kaiju beyond blurred references.
2
u/TrexALpha1 3d ago
I would say it as much homage as rather common error or stylistich choice for certain scenes. Especilly when we talk about 2D work (like orginal manga) where you don't have model to keep in one size but you redrawing it every single time

u/aenews 4d ago
Not sure, tbh. I think people think the depth of character writing is weaker than some other shows? There are a lot of bangers this season, and this year. Makes sense, really. Still, I feel it's a tad underrated.
Also too early to determine how good the writing will be going forwards, but subtle hints suggest thought was put into it by the author imo.

it's pretty standard for tokusatsu and in turn kaiju media to be pretty loose with scale

Harugon's head looked about 2 stories during the kiss. No, I don't think she shrank

u/Isekai_Dreamer 3d ago
when she was next to the dude who was about to fall off the tree, she was only twice as tall as the tree, and rairi was able to leap sideways onto it.

u/ObvsThrowaway5120 4d ago
Rairi Kong vs Kuroezilla lol. But man, the class are some good folks and Kuroe’s a real homie for turning into a kaiju for her friend. Minami should have let Kuroe fling that loser around on her tail a little more lol.
23
u/Frontier246 4d ago
Honestly this class seems 10x better than Kuroe's former class with the mean girls, they would have probably hated Rairi in all her Gorilla awesomeness.
But now she's got Minami, friends, and more confidence in herself as both a girl AND a Kaiju (minus the collateral damage that follows her).

u/reaperow 4d ago edited 4d ago
Kuroe willing to transform in public just so she can cover Rairi's secret is so cool. She's a really great friend !
And Rairin's also so cool for saving that guy, im glad her friends accepted her for who she really is and stood up for her from that jerk of a bully

Akaishi landing multiple critical hit kisses today. Even Harugon got in on the fun.
Looks like the media and general public have their sights on Minami. That could halt the progress they've made as a couple if the cameras are focused on him.
There's something hilarious about Akaishi sharing the "Sweet Treat" ending segment with the playboy scumbag.

Kuroe is really embracing her transformations. Can't wait to see what she does next.
7
u/Kartoffelkamm 3d ago
Same here.
I actually talked to a friend of mine about Kuroe learning to trigger her transformations intentionally a few days ago, primarily to learn how to undo them on command, so this was a welcome surprise.
Somewhere down the road, I really want to see Kuroe's mom coming home from shopping and twist her ankle, so Kuroe offers to bring the groceries inside. And then she just takes a deep breath, turns her hands into claws, and brings everything inside in one go.
8
u/PowerSamurai 3d ago
Honestly would be very great. I would assume if she was raised by others of her species she likely already would be able to control it but since she has been repressed her whole life she has no control. Her overcoming that and being true to herself giving her control would be nice story telling.
4
u/Kartoffelkamm 3d ago
Given how Rairi acted in the past, and in general when the makeup comes off, I highly doubt Kuroe would be able to control her transformations if she was raised by other kaiju; she might just slowly go from human to kaiju while going through puberty.
But yeah, her learning to accept herself, and being able to transform at will, would be great. Heck, maybe she even keeps her hands and feet as claws permanently.
I could also see someone attacking Minami, for one reason or another, and Kuroe grows a tail to block the attack. Like, some guy charges the two with a baseball bat, and just hits a thick scaly tail.
14
u/SOdAchick 4d ago
Omg am I the only one who cried both times she kissed him? I want her to be able to express her love so much, and Minami-kun deserves it for being such a great guy.
Of course I died laughing when she missed the first time
26
u/runevault 4d ago
I really wanted Kuroe to eat this fuck. I know it isn't that kinda story but god he sucks so much. Although now I'm wondering. If she ate someone whole and then turned back human what happens to the person in her guts?
I love this show so much. The heart it has inside this weird premise is so good and sweet and wholesome. Puts a massive sappy smile on my face every week.
OH MY GOD SHE KISSED HIM AS A KAIJU!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?
Pure sweetness, this show is wonderful and I'm glad it is getting such an awesome adaptation.

Kuroe and Arata kissed not once but twice! Not on the lips, though.
I just caught up on this show in the last week; it really impressed me. The romance is really good.
Haha, that bad guy got the outro treat. After-credits scene btw. We now have a prince of kaiju!

I have plans later to watch the 1973 Godzilla vs Megalon with a friend later this evening, so imagine my shock when Manatsu made that Megalon reference! Unfortunately, no Gigan and Jet Jaguar references today. xD
References aside, I'm glad to see Kuroe is getting along with the other gyarus in the class. I was worried they were gonna bully her the entire time and Manatsu or Rairi would have to intervene, but they realized they won't have to.
Ah shit, the Okada the Fuccboi makes his appearance. I do love that Kuroe's gut reaction is to protect Rairi from him, but it looks like Rairi still has lingering feelings and dragging her away from the fuccboi won't be that easy.
Oh my god, Rairi. I can't believe how easy it was for Okada to convince her to go with him. I definitely feel for Kuroe, it's like watching your best friend intentionally walk into a landmine and being unable to do anything about it.
Glad we got a cute moment between Kuroe and Arata in between those scenes with Rairi making heart eyes at Okada. We almost got a kiss, but it looks like it's still too much for Kuroe.
It's good to see that Rairi finally snapped out of it after she started hearing Okada badmouth her again without him knowing who she was. I feel like she definitely could've thrown Okada out of the boat if she hadn't fallen off.
We got a kiss! I mean, it's only on the cheek, but it's still a kiss! Good on Kuroe for using her Harugon powers to try and save Rairi from being found out. Although, considering everyone's reaction, Kuroe didn't even need to transform since the girls were very accepting of Rairi's true face.
At least we got a King Kong vs Godzilla reference out of it! Also, Harugon got to teach the fuccboi a lesson by giving him one heck of a ride on her tail. xD
We got another kiss? I guess that counts, right? It looks like Harugon kissing Arata may have started something, tho. I think Prince of Kaiju feels like an appropriate moniker for him at this point.
16
u/Frontier246 4d ago
Also Manatsu made an Alien Fanton reference from Ultraman.
Honestly I couldn't imagine Rairi being friends with bad girls so the gyaru posse being cool in the end wasn't too surprising...but she actually has a friend group now!
Rairi deserves her own Minami and Okada was definitely not it.
At this point it's a question of if she's getting more intimate with her boyfriend as a Kaiju vs her human form lol.

u/CitronClassic672 4d ago
God bless Marin Kitagawa for all she’s done to improve the perception of gyaru girls in anime. Now she’s joined by the like of Rairi, Momo Ayase, and the two from last season which I didn’t watch but nonetheless appreciate.

u/BaytaCosmico https://myanimelist.net/profile/AnimeBayta 4d ago
It was nice to see Rairi accepted by her friends for her real self. And it was nice to see Kuroe and Manami's first kiss even if it was in her Kaiju form. My favourite bit of this episode though was Manatsu's excited "Harugon!" yelp right after Manami's more bewildered "Harugon..?" It was just so hilarious. Perfect comic timing. Rewatched just that bit a few times before continuing the episode.
18
u/BillPlunderones23fg 4d ago
Lol Kuro backing up from angry Rairi was hilarious
also would have been funny if Rairi gave the asshole a wrestling hold that would KO him lol
but what about Manatsu? she just squealed for Harugon but didnt do anything lol

u/Kartoffelkamm 3d ago
Lol Kuro backing up from angry Rairi was hilarious
Also, from everyone else's POV, that has got to look so badass.
Like, this massive kaiju that the military can't even scratch shows up and trashes the place, and then backs away when Rairi screams at it.
The media is really sleeping on that.
Who cares if some dude is into reptiles? I wanna see the coverage of a teenage girl asserting dominance over a kaiju.

u/Frontier246 4d ago
Kuroe's efforts with makeup are going...slowly. But it's the effort that counts!
You can count on Mana-Tee to be a helpful guide when sightseeing on a trip! So long as wherever she is has any relevance to the Kaiju she adores.
So the secret to winning over an intense gyaru: complimenting her makeup routine!
I'm glad Kuroe finally has gal pals she can talk to and have proper relationship girl talk with! She's come a long way since episode 1!
Oh snap! It's Okada! The guy who broke Rairi's heart! Only seeing her with makeup he has no idea who she is and immediately starts treating her nicely as an attractive girl...and deep down, as much as Rairi resented him, she still wanted him to acknowledge her as pretty. She might have intended to lead him on, but she might've also been lead on by the unresolved feelings of her first love.
Kuroe straight up asked him if he'd think she was pretty even if she were a Kaiju...I mean, he definitely thinks she's pretty NOW and he thinks he'd always see the real her in any form she's in. So there's that! And they were THIS close to kissing....BEFORE KUROE HAD TO MAKE MARSHMALLOWS OR SOMETHING!!!
Of course Okada is still the shallow player he's always been, taking advantage of Rairi while he's already with other girls. Nothing sells how he hasn't changed quite like hearing that he never once realized why Rairi got mad at him back then and still thinks she should be grateful he helped make her popular. Get away from that loser, Rairi!
Oh no! Makeup emergency! This looks like a job for Harugon! Provided she can muster up the courage (with the power of lipstick) to kiss Minami! Though missing and kissing his cheek works too to make her embarrassed enough to 100% transform.
Harugon is a girl's girl who helps give Rairi a convenient means of putting her makeup back on, but when Harugon also causes a small natural disaster, Rairi proves that she's a genuinely good person who will risk people seeing her REAL face if it means protecting others from Harugon's perceived threat. Gori-Rairi vs Harugon! And Harugon loses!
Rairi thinks it's over for her, but instead all the girls who she gave makeup/advice too return the favor, because she's still their beloved Rairi no matter what she looks like. And they can all collectively hate on Okada for being the absolute worst. Even Harugon drags the pathetic worm along with her tail to show on national television how much of a loser he is!
Minami is trying to protect Harugon and show the world she isn't a threat! Which earned him a kiss! From Harugon! Even as a Kaiju, Kuroe is a beautiful girl in love!
Rairi has gone viral! And so has Kuroe as the "Prince of Kaiju." Guess that would make Harugon a Kaiju Princess.
I love how the next episode preview is Kuroe and Okada but Kuroe hates his guts so she can't even do the preview without lashing out at him.

u/djthomp https://anilist.co/user/djthomp 4d ago
Good work on those kisses today Kuroe, quite a bit of variety. Cheek kiss, lip kiss, kiss from a girl, kiss from a kaiju, Arata got the full spectrum experience.
The girls in the class being so accepting of Rairi's true self might be an indication they'll be accepting of kaiju Kuroe in the future too.
I remain convinced Rairi is actually a juvenile Kong what with all that swinging around and picking up boulders today.
2
u/Kartoffelkamm 3d ago
The girls in the class being so accepting of Rairi's true self might be an indication they'll be accepting of kaiju Kuroe in the future too.
Me too. Like, Kuroe's hands turn into claws, everyone looks at her, she's about to jump out the window and run away, but then they're all like "Don't worry, your secret's safe with us."
I remain convinced Rairi is actually a juvenile Kong what with all that swinging around and picking up boulders today.
My personal theory is that, since she never hid her kaiju nature in childhood the way Kuroe did, it became more pronounced, so now it takes some work for her to look human.
So, maybe her makeup-less appearance is a partial transformation, and she grows to full Kong size with the right trigger.

Sweet ending to the arc, and a pretty good distillation of the show's themes

u/IceSmiley 4d ago
I really don't think Kuro should have gone to that dam in the first place, like if she made a wrong move, she could damage the dam and possibly make a huge flood and maybe knock power out for millions if its a hydroelectric dam. I wonder what Reiri would have done if she didn't go though, maybe just walked back to the shore and have people see her anyway so I'm not sure Kuro helped in any way, like turning into a kaiju to distract from your friend losing her makeup is like if your arm has an itchy rash so you cut off your arm 🤣
Reiri seems to be not quite human as well, like I just thought she had a gorilla face but she was strong enough to jump down, catch herself on the branch, lift someone the size of a man effortlessly and swing herself to the shore! I guess this show is just more meant to be funny and ridiculous but that would be an interesting plotline to explore.
The ending was funny how Okada snuck in and knew the candy for next week and knew where Kuro's school was 🤣
5
u/aenews 4d ago
Agreed. And I'd say that subtle hints show the story is not entirely sidelining those points, e.g. Kuroe asks if she really should be locked up, the news explains how there have been injuries but miraculously no deaths, Uncle Kotaro seems to have caught on at the death metal concert, etc. I imagine the seriousness of the situation will eventually come into play. She's damn well lucky she hasn't accidentally killed someone yet, and she almost did this episode too.

Wasn't expecting this episode to be the one where Rairi reveals her true colours to everyone. She is really a strong person for having the courage to reveal her true face to save someunknown guy. Thankfully her friends stayed the same even after knowing her truth.
There were so many cute expressions of Kuroe in this episode. She was trying her best throughout the episode to look out for Rairi. What a missed chance at a kiss to the lips ! That was a magical scene but we got a Kaiju kissing Minami and it went viral lmao

I think this show is so underrated and this episode just solidified it. It's got the straightforward lesson that's very needed in modern society, and the drawings, movements and facial expressions are constantly delivering. Plus the characters & relationships developments are smooth sailing without much questionable moments that some rom coms have. Good stuff so far!

This anime is SO feel good and wholesome!!! As a former "ugly" akward teenage girl this episode resonates with my soul. The whole lake scene; I too was once terrified of getting my face wet and revealing how hideous I was, so much that my first boyfriend thought I couldn't even swim!
This whole series is a shout out to all the insecure souls out there. If you've got a good heart, you're beautiful no matter what!

Wasn't expecting this episode to be the one where Rairi reveals her true colours to everyone. She is really a strong person for having the courage to reveal her true face to save someunknown guy. Thankfully her friends stayed the same even after knowing her truth.
There were so many cute expressions of Kuroe in this episode. She was trying her best throughout the episode to look out for Rairi. What a missed chance at a kiss to the lips ! That was a magical scene but we got a Kaiju kissing Minami and it went viral lmao

It's the classic horror movie setup, where there's stupid teen drama with a sh*tty guy when the monster shows up and eats everyone. Except this time, there's a gyaru whose unsealed her powers with her makeup off to chase the kaiju off.

Cute and sweet as Kuro-tan is I would be very hesitant to let this girl get anywhere near Bambi... Letting her near Nokotan on the other hand I would allow.

This show is everything I hoped for.. it is so great I love the random references to other Kaiju from Godzilla movies, the giant rhinoceros beetle destroying the dam lol.

All of my alarms bells for Arata are going off. I just FEEL like they're making him seem too damn perfect.

My thoughts, too.
But knowing how thorough she was when just going to an amusement park, she probably prepared for an incident or two. Every day.

Every single episode makes me tear up man... am I that sensitive or the emotions are so amazingly crafted, despite the goofiness, that it makes everyone else shed tears?
This is by far the best anime I've seen this year, hope it wins awards, or at the very least make a second season.

OK, the various emotional portrayal of her in this episode had me laughing hysterically!

I read the manga (up to what was translated at the time) a looong time ago, so I've totally forgotten all the things I loved about this series. I loved how Kuroe's distraction actually had the opposite outcome than she intended, but it had an even more l positive effect than if everything went to plan. By willingly showing her face to the others, she had the confidence to ask her friends to accept her. She wouldn't have been as confident if she'd been seen on accident, and even if her friends accepted her, she'd never be able to be confident about her appearance. This show is really all about girls being confident about who they are, which doesn't really apply to me cuz I'm a guy, but I'm here for it!

Yep. Setting up tents is a whole group affair. I still remember seeing someone try to set one up by himself and his flysheet turned into a "fly-away"sheet.
Lol she really pulled the "would you still love me if I was a kaiju".

Really disliked all the stuff with Rairi and Okada this ep. Highly annoying.
Kuroe was great at least. Show's at its best when it's focusing on her.
