~~*Every anime has to have the one incontinence right?*~~

It seems the author wasn't interested so much in the 'mandatory academy', so they just decided to have Kunon speedrun it.

Shantotto112026-01-05 01:47

Even the author is showing nepotism towards Kunon-kun…

Roeclean2026-01-06 09:10

Hmmm, I think I know who one of the authors favorite characters is🤔🤔

ObvsThrowaway51202026-01-04 15:57

I’m liking Kunon’s whole “shallow” personality. It’s pretty funny seeing this 12 year old kid spouting all this goofy stuff, like him trying to tell Prof Kast about all the nepotism because his pops and the king are pretty tight lol.

Looks like ol Lyle Piss Pants is gonna be a real problem for Kunon. Can’t wait to see how this dude gets put in his place.

PeaceAlien2026-01-04 16:40

Funny that the show explained the personality as the tutor and maid thought it would be good for him to increase his mood, but maybe they went too far.

Lyle doesn't seem like much of a threat, more like an average goon

Bloodglas2026-01-05 00:12

Lyle's superiority complex must be so hard on him as the lowly 6th Prince.

PeaceAlien2026-01-05 02:04

If only he were the 7th prince, he could have been a magical prodigy.

avboden2026-01-05 06:58

exactly, people think he's just like that but no, they MADE him like that. He's just doing as he was taught. His sense of humor was grown from that maid.

shad792026-01-04 16:04

I have to admit, those first two episodes were quite interesting, mainly thanks to Kunon and his character. I don't remember ever watching a series with such MC, and I'm surprised it's not an isekai. I'll definitely check out the next episodes.

The way Kunon dealt with this prince made me laugh out loud; it was so effective and yet so cruel at the same time. That doesn't mean that I feel sorry for this prince though, he definitely deserved that xD

oxlemf102026-01-04 16:14

Kunon being shallow was absolutely golden; he simply understood that he needs to live his life to the fullest and even ended up with that prince.

I wonder if he'll end up getting interested in school, even if he just needs to pass the exams.

Atharaphelun2026-01-04 19:53

I was about to drop this because of the first episode, but his troll attitude in the second episode made this anime actually tolerable. Making the prince appear as though he wet himself through magic is something I haven't seen before.

Treknx012026-01-04 21:34

but as funny as it is it still makes him far less believable as a character, we have a “blind” child who has led a fully sheltered life with minimal human interaction, suddenly having nearly zero fear of a situation he has never experienced plus logical reasoning of make the bully wet his pants and embarrass them to make them leave.

entertaining but still poor writing, i will give it another episode to see if it can improve but I think this is not a series for me.

darthvall2026-01-05 06:21

He read a lot though, to the point of acing that exam test without ever attending classes (while chit-chatting at that).

Also, Iko (and the manner teacher) shaped his personality a lot. She might have shamed Kunon in the past for wetting the bed or something.

DoggyP0O2026-01-05 09:34

You're problem is not with the writing, it's that it doesn't follow your personal favorite cookie cutter copy pasta that every show you like does. Nothing about this is unbelievable. MC has never had to fear for anything in his life. Even his reserved original personality was not out of fear, it was purely out of feeling alienated from those around him due to being different. There is no reason to expect him to ever have been afraid of anything. Now he even has superpowers and better vision than anyone around him

Blurgas2026-01-05 05:24

I'm the opposite. Enjoyed the first episode, but the way he was acting in this one got on my nerves after a bit

Roeclean2026-01-06 09:06

Yeah, the "be a girl" part was so extraaaa. Like it felt like he was just being random for no reason (it was sooo unwarranted)
Luckily, he got back to the suddenly real moments afterwards, with the nepotism talk

Earlier-Today2026-01-06 13:29

The be a girl stuff made at least a little sense to me - guys are supposed to lead girls in a typical noble society, not the other way around, so it was his ridiculous way of asking her to lead him around.

It's the kind of joke you'd sometimes find in Shakespeare, only with worlds better writing.

NegativePossession12026-01-05 09:14

100% this. First episode had me thinking "this is gonna just be another low effort generic garbage anime isnt it...😑" but this episode completely redeemed itself.

avboden2026-01-05 06:57

I think it's more his sheltered upbringing. He's basically never left home and hasn't really met other people much at all. So when he's taught to be a "noble with a sense of humor" that's what happened.

NanDemoKnaives2026-01-04 16:21

Some of the comedy misses for me like the father arguing with Kunon but I was laughing so hard when Kunon was talking about nepotism with Kast, the comedic delivery was great. I also do enjoy the banter between Kunon and Iko.

Poor Ixio, his brother is completely different character and now he has to worry about him causing issues with royalty. But it should be fine in the end, the King and their father are thick as thieves apparently lol.

This school arc looks like it'll be a short one, I thought it'd be longer.

PeaceAlien2026-01-04 16:42

I smell nepotism...

Calwings2026-01-04 21:22

Between the nepotism comments and reversing the *"Apple? No, it's actually plum."* bit on the maid in Ep1, Kunon's humor is already winning me over.

KnewOness2026-01-04 16:23

The only real good part of these 2 eps was the kunon-exam taker banter imo. Probably going to be a drop unless kunon carries this hard as a character but i don't have much hope

NekoCatSidhe2026-01-04 16:27

I liked Kunon’s constant lame jokes (is that what they are translating by shallow ?), that and his blindness gives him more personality than you would expect from this kind of power fantasy show. He and the Princess are obviously on the same wavelength with those jokes and seem to truly like each others, so at least we probably won’t get a crappy harem or a protagonist refusing to ever acknowledge his feelings for his love interest.

As for the rest, this was pretty wholesome. I liked the sneaky way he dealt with that dumb bully (seriously, what was his problem ?), it would have been too easy to have him just kick his ass to look good. Of course, I doubt the bully will forgive him for that, but Kunon can obviously defend himself (and the “nepotism”, as he call it, will protect from being charged with lese-majesty).

I am not sure in which direction the show will go after that. Will it just be wholesome slice of life all the way while Kunon grows up into a famous wizard ? Or will there be more to the story than that ? I don’t mind the slice of life, but that is not the most interesting thing to watch.

Gumbator2026-01-05 01:20

I think if you just sub in "cringe" or something similar for shallow, it fits the tone.

darthvall2026-01-05 06:25

Considering he's only the 6th prince, I have a feeling it's power trip cause of inferiority complex himself. That's the usual common trope.

Just the appearance of someone with blessing from his father could even irked him that much.

mgedmin2026-01-05 13:17

> seriously, what was his problem

At first I thought he was jealous that Kunon was getting attention from a girl he likes, before it was revealed that was his sister.

NekoCatSidhe2026-01-05 13:22

I think he likes to bully his sister because she is the only one lower in status in the Royal Family than he is, and so decided to also attack Kunon for being her fiancé and hurt her.

shatteredauthor2026-01-06 00:22

I mean... they are royals....

Drumboo2026-01-07 22:57

Calling every woman he meets beautiful despite being blind is 100% amazing, like, you can't even complain about it.

diacewrb2026-01-04 16:30

Kunon looks like a superhero pimp with his mask, cape and cane, and his brother look like his long suffering detective partner in that tan trench coat fighting crime together.

Kunon handled the prince nicely without violence.

Gumbator2026-01-05 01:22

And then all the other students are in normal western clothes. I saw one guy in a quarter zip hoodie with a tray in the cafeteria.

Shantotto112026-01-05 01:46

Of course he’s wearing a quarter zip hoodie. Can’t be caught lacking with some lame-ass Nike techs…

NickDunnePH2026-01-10 16:57

And he's having burger for lunch 😂

BraveSirRobinGG2026-01-05 05:28

If Kunon handles most of his problems like this, with humor and intelligence, instead of an overpowered pissing match, then it would be way ahead of most of the fantasy slop we've been getting.

SA0902026-01-04 16:33

The comedy was a huge miss throughout this episode for me and made it feel a lot longer than it actually was, so probably going to give it 1-2 more episodes before deciding if it’s for me or not.

pandavova2026-01-04 16:35

This is my kind of humor. I really enjoy this.

I hope they keep this up and won't drop it.

PARANOIAH2026-01-04 17:04

LMAOed at the scene where he was about to do the exam but insisted on continuing to ramble about nepotism to the teacher - "this relationship has been going on since the previous generation" broke me for some reason.

djthomp2026-01-04 19:24

Same here, that scene made me laugh so hard I was in tears.

Shantotto112026-01-05 01:45

Between his father and His Highness, he means…

athrun_12026-01-08 18:49

The teacher made the right call to not listen to privi info. Not unless if she wants to have an early retirement.

Boris-_-Badenov2026-01-04 18:21

will give it one more episode

DragonoidOmega2026-01-04 18:21

I managed to watch this episode and didn't realize it was a 2. episode until coming here to read the discussion, and I'm not sure what that tells about this anime but it's certainly something.

Queue_Jumping_Quack2026-01-04 18:27

My favorite part of the episode was all the cringing Kunon's poor bro had to go through.

The beginning of the first episode had me thinking the whole overcoming a disability story would bring some pathos to the story, but so far its mostly a goofy comedy. including embarrassing Prince Bakugo like this was an eighties teen comedy.

djthomp2026-01-04 19:22

Wow is this kid weird. Very convenient for him that Mirika seems to enjoy the weirdness and just goes with it. I rather like how she immediately played along as the boy when he decided to be the girl for no particular reason.

It does smell like nepotism that Kunon is being allowed to take just the exams.

Sixth prince is screwing up but Kunon is so weird it may not go that badly for him.

DavidJKay2026-01-05 07:31

I disagree, isn't that unusual real world if you home school and can pass all the final exams after, it counts... only nepotism is they allow the exams all at the same time rather than a bit of a delay that is rule for others.

shatteredauthor2026-01-06 00:25

Well in regards to the princess going with it, it's an arranged marriage so she has no choice. (remember she was prepared to play along with it when he was super depressed and hated everything in episode 1) So i'm sure she is much more willing to embrace his exaggerated playboy-esk attitude, unlike most people she at least can enjoy the contrast lol.

RehabCenterInc2026-01-04 19:25

Ok I really like this quirky little guy

Shmappii2026-01-04 20:01

Characters that one-sidedly force banter are super hit or miss even in the side cast, so making one the protagonist is a bold move. He's like 90% annoying and 10% hilarious, very Jimmy Neutron or Smart Guy kind of stuff.

Feels like an easy watch, but the season is pretty packed and I'm not sure how much time I want to spend with a show that invalidates the MC being blind within the first episode. The whole blind thing was what I thought would matter to the plot and now it feels like a surface level reason to put a cool blindfold accessory on the MC instead.

NekoCatSidhe2026-01-04 20:34

I think he uses his water magic as some kind of detector rather than truly “see”. I wonder what are the limitations, if there are any (the part where he develops his “seeing magic” felt rushed). Would he be able to recognize the Prince if he met him again ?

Shmappii2026-01-04 20:46

I don't think the show explaining it at this point will matter. It feels like the main priority is banter until the audience is pummeled into laughing or leaving.

NekoCatSidhe2026-01-04 21:00

You are probably right. I hoped the show would be more than just silly banter, but I may have been too optimistic.

OneDeuxTriSeiGo2026-01-04 22:06

Yeah it feels almost like sensing via humidity and moisture. It's an interesting take on magic but I doubt they'll focus too much on it.

Zeikos2026-01-05 00:53

He's a kid.
If he were an adult, I'd agree with you. But he's a child, it fits.
Now, if they end up overdoing it, it'll be a problem, but I think they deserve the benefit of the doubt.

Shmappii2026-01-05 01:59

They wrote a character that uses annoying dialogue to generate comedic friction. It's a common dynamic and Kunon strikes a balance that doesn't work for me. I don't know why you're explaining his age when I already referenced other child characters that utilize similar tropes.

mekahamedan2026-01-04 20:12

ngl that gag personality kinda ruin him
like melancholy guy who cant see and trying so hard to create magic that make him enable to see is quite interesting, if he being cheerful after that prolly still good but being gag and flirt guy is kinda ruin him

kaitodash2026-01-04 20:19

The maid carried this show. She made his whole personality, and it was golden.

PARANOIAH2026-01-04 21:42

Sounds like she deserves a raise.

BraveSirRobinGG2026-01-05 05:25

If they don't carry this joke at least once an episode, I will be disappointed. I be the manga artist or anime writer kept writing this because... they felt they needed a raise.

darthvall2026-01-05 06:22

*brushing it with a laugh

CelioHogane2026-01-06 09:35

I doub that! Hahahahaha!

Muzzy-chan2026-01-04 21:14

Gahhh, I wish they would just release all the episodes in one go 😂 I want to watch more, waiting any longer might make me lose interest later, as I am easily bored by things.

But well, what can be done, it is another good and enjoyable episode. Sooo, looking forward to the next episode! Tanoshimi!

AsterJ2026-01-04 21:49

I despise this antagonist character we've seen dozens of times already. He has no reason at all to be so hateful of the MC who he didn't even know about 5 seconds earlier. It makes no sense and it's not remotely normal.

He's there for stupid plot reasons and it's not at all necessary. I was enjoying the MC being surrounded by supportive people. Then this random idiot shows up to ruin it with nonsensical conflict.

danmarce2026-01-04 23:35

Somehow, the maid is to blame for 90% of the things that happen here, as she is the reason for his personality.

Really fun character.

darthvall2026-01-05 06:28

If you want to play the blame game though, it's the family's fault for letting Kuon lived mainly with Iko (and for hiring her) lol.

But yeah, I absolutely love how weird he ended up being.

danmarce2026-01-05 08:22

Now, I wonder how her interview was.

Because, from the older brother, is clear they KNOW how she is.

CelioHogane2026-01-06 09:35

The maid really said "Let's groom him into a comedy genius"

HTC8642026-01-04 23:41

The comedy is working well for me.

dakkumauji2026-01-04 23:43

It's episode two and I can already tell being big brother Ixio will be suffering. Good luck keeping up with Kunon!

IceSmiley2026-01-05 00:02

This show has settled into more being a funny comedy. Kunon is such a jerk, which makes sense considering he's not been socialized with other kids, has Iko indulging him and giving him bad lessons to always falsely flatter people, and he's 9. It's too bad his magic teacher Jennie from the 1st episode won't be around anymore but his new teacher seems afraid of him since he's complaining about nepotism and doesn't want to get involved!

When Lyle was picking on Kunon, I expected he was going to make a big water bubble and dump it on his head or something but that's really creative to make it look as if he peed his pants! He did slyly let Lyle know he did it without saying so by pointing out that Lyle soiled himself, as if a blind kid would be able to know that!

SYZekrom2026-01-05 00:39

Instead of suddenly being all different b/c he's a reincarnator, he's all different b/c his based maid made him a memelord or something idk

Zeikos2026-01-05 00:51

I am loving Kunon's mischeviousness. I didn't expect it, but I welcome it.

BraveSirRobinGG2026-01-05 00:51

Isn't it sad that you can say "That anime with a noble boy that has OP magic power" and you haven't given enough information for this season?!? Yet another sub-sub genre category that is overdone.

rotvyrn2026-01-05 01:30

So it took barely any time for him to actually discover he can 'see' and then one more episode for it to elevate to superpower status where he can detect things normal people can't.

I really haven't decided how i feel about the comedy yet. The idea that his maid and tutor taught him exactly how to be this persona is a little farfetched, but he doesn't really feel like a solid character in the first place. More like a 'what if someone like this existed.' But yeah iunno, I can see a lot of comedic tricks that usually work for me, and I feel two-ways about them, so something is a bit off for me I guess.

I'll see if it grows on me more

secret_tsukasa2026-01-05 01:33

I absolutely love the comedic chemistry of tge Mc and his maid. Can't wait to see more of them!

aquaticshrimp2026-01-05 01:51

Chuuni wizard kid with powers similar to daredevil? And he can sniff nepotism? Hell yes.

Cryogenx372026-01-05 02:00

The "nepotism" chat with the teacher made me laugh.

But what in the fuck was that in the cafeteria: piles of steak on a rice bowl?!?

darthvall2026-01-05 06:31

They need to release Kunon's full rant with the teacher. She said he chit chatted throughout the whole exam.

mgedmin2026-01-05 13:23

> But what in the fuck was that in the cafeteria: piles of steak on a rice bowl?!?

Whatever it was, it looked delicious.

BornfromDarkness2026-01-05 02:38

Hear me out, if his entire convo with the teacher from onward is nepotism and politics it’s going to get my aots, imagine it. Trying to make small talk and your student is casually revealing the status of the higher ups

If he started to talk about where all the dead bodies are, I would lose it just to see the reaction.

that1dude3172026-01-05 02:50

Almost skipped this after episode 1 and im glad I didn't. Seems like this will be a good one to sit back and not think about things too much and enjoy.

I do hope we learn more about all this nepotism thats happening though.

BBryant3rd2026-01-05 03:59

This is definitely going to be one of the shows I look forward too. We better get lots of Iko too. The MC is awesome and seems like he will have good people at his side.

Nekoking982026-01-05 04:48

I found MC to be hilarous as fuck but I do understand if this humor is not for some people though.

Ukhai2026-01-05 05:15

The social/political commentary out of nowhere from MC and the maid - I'm loving it. Looking forward to the rest of the season!

Background_Formal9402026-01-05 07:17

Already the second EP and I am hook kunons shallow personality and jokes me laugh and also what a way to deal with a potential bully by making people think he wet himself 🤣

NoHead17152026-01-05 08:32

Looks like we have our first silly fun show this season. This will join the likes of *Unaware Atelier Master* and *Classless Hero*

Basic_Hospital_39842026-01-05 09:30

I'm pretty sure Kunon's brother didn't say 'Maid' when the subtitles said 'maybe it's the influence of the maid?', but 痴女 (chijo/female pervert)

DoggyP0O2026-01-05 09:31

Isekai protagonist having a personality has to be illegal! (I know it's not actually an isekai, but there's a certain setting and vibe with slop-y fantasy shows like this where every character/world/logic just works a certain way. I know yall know what i mean)

Zeroruno2026-01-05 16:21

Why is he cringe/chuuni all of a sudden? nyahahaha I lowkey feel his older brother

kalirion2026-01-05 20:54

"A gentleman with a sense of humor" means "A total flirt", got it. Not sure what the "shallow" stuff is about though, is that really the right translation?

"Usually we space the exams out more to give students time to prepare, but for you we put them closer together." "**NEEEEEEPOOOOOOOTIIIIIISMMMMMM!!!!!**".

There's no way MC actually missed that that bully had been his fiancée's older brother, given that it was outright stated during the confrontation, right? So pretending he hadn't noticed was just a part of the act?

Here's hoping MC has learned some attack magic, 'cause it looks like he's going to need it.

Anyway, ep 2 was all right, so I'll probably stick with this show, though maybe timeshift the watching to Monday to keep Sunday clearer.

shatteredauthor2026-01-06 00:29

I know it's played as a joke but honestly I really appreciate that the MC's family at least feel like nobles. So many animes have noble families that go on and on about honor and pride and shit but this family feels real. Their not mustache twirling crushing peasants but the also aren't hesitating to make use of being friends with the royal family. It is nepotism and they all know it and that's totally fine lol. It's just refreshing is all.

Actually I think I would describe a lot of this show as "refreshing" it's not doing anything ground breaking but it's mixed up tropes and revitalized the bullshit enough that it gets a solid "refreshing."

Except for the prince. That trope couldn't be ignored I guess.

_Sai2026-01-06 01:12

This guy. I like.

That prince ain't never gonna live down that peepee pants. It will be whispered in the shadows forever.

I want more of best maid.

HazyMirror2026-01-06 02:45

This show is actually pretty funny. Kunon's a little shit and i'm enjoying it.

devo142182026-01-06 03:14

Why so cringe? Why?!

Earlier-Today2026-01-06 13:25

The humor in this show is so awkward.

But I can't tell if I'll hate it or if it'll grow on me.

Bizarre thing.

DrZoark2026-01-06 15:22

What did they teach the mc? Ha ha.

atastyfire2026-01-07 00:15

Maybe it's just me but the humor in this show feels like it's forced. It almost feels like it's missing a laugh track

KailReed2026-01-07 00:53

Lmao why did his maid dip her hands in the water orbs all sneaky quick when Kunon was about to touch them ? 😂

AshnakAGQ2026-01-07 01:34

They never really explained how he is able to see now. I thought he would have to develop original magic or something, but apparently training in basic water spells makes you daredevil.

Lulukassu2026-01-08 04:04

I get it. He's mastering water magic so much he's developed hints gender *fluid*

AceSoldia2026-01-09 17:32

Late but man that was far more entertaining than it had any right to be, Kunon is a riot.

scum2k12026-01-10 08:06

this show is so delightfully weird! the jokes and timing are so absurd I can't help but laugh. I'm in it for the long haul, here's to hoping it keeps up steam.

Dur_Gwana2026-01-11 02:23

okay he's pretty funny - guess he took it from his maid - and tbh I wish they ended up together and not with some princess but it's not like the princess is a bad girl.

Wonder what her older brother issue is - blonde hair - Jamie fucking Lannister?
