FriedRiceistheBest2026-01-13 14:13
What do you mean 2016 was 10 years ago?
Isuckateverything92026-01-13 14:15
even worse is that 2010 is 16 years ago
BeardyMcBeardster2026-01-13 14:40
Stop it, I don't like this math.
Cyberblood2026-01-13 14:51
The first Matrix movie came out in 1999, which is 27 years ago.
Or, since this is about anime, Full Metal Alchemist came out in 2003, or 23 years ago.
^^^i'm ^^^so ^^^old...
a_literalapple2026-01-13 15:09
Horrifying to think that 0 was 2026 years ago 😧
DOLO_F_PHD2026-01-13 23:38
Damn right in my petrified roman bones
Lign_Grant2026-01-13 16:40
Nah, 16 years later I'm still 18.
Kadmos12026-01-14 04:18
Heck, 1/1/2006 was over 20 years ago.
frodex_frodex2026-01-13 16:13
And I just started watching it.... :-)

She's the one who took the picture
Xx420EdgeLord69xX2026-01-13 14:48
Well should have at least taken a cute selfie afterwards
Dudi4PoLFr2026-01-13 14:08
Oh, this one hurts, quite a lot..........
RGBkano2026-01-13 14:11
Feels like just yesterday
dimyo2026-01-13 14:17
2016 was such a goated year. Influential too, since we still live in its shadow. With Konosuba and Re:Zero going strong, MyHero just ended with a bang last season, Your Name still being the biggest solo anime movie.
DoctorKrakens2026-01-13 14:49
I started watching anime that year. After Re:Zero and Konosuba covered both ends of the tone spectrum, nothing else in the isekai genre could satisfy me at all.
powerplayer62026-01-13 14:51
Not just for anime either. It *was* the year I properly got into anime, but it also was, well, 2016. The one the most influential years for us "older zoomers". I was 14-15 then and it marked the transition between "late childhood" and "proper teens" for me, because I started going out and hanging out with friends, got new hobbies like watching anime, and so on. One of the best and most memorable years of my life, particularly Summer of 2016. And getting deep into anime in the fall was a great way to end the year - I watched so many classics and contemporary shows then, including KonoSuba and Re:Zero.
dimyo2026-01-13 14:57
I'm a bit older then so, like for most, 2016 was an awful year irl, the worst before 2020, but the media was amazing!
Not just anime, but the music too. A lot of the defining albums of the last few decades coming out, and Spotify hitting the global mainstream.
Tentacle_poxsicle2026-01-13 21:06
Pretty much 2006-2016 was the best anime decade.
SchrodingerWeeb2026-01-13 14:18
Holyfuck i was still in my 1st yr of college when s1 came out

Shadow_Ass2026-01-13 14:20
Now I need S4. One of the best isekai shows out there. Edit: [They heard me](https://www.reddit.com/r/anime/s/PDpxQx5NBn)
VMK_19912026-01-13 14:23
As far as I know, the light novel is finished, so I'd like to see the anime get to the end too.
Mistdwellerr2026-01-13 14:44
It is and the whole thing is REALLY funny, I highly recommend reading it!
MasterBuilder18182026-01-13 17:50
Yep the light novels are finished, 17 in total for the main volumes(there’s also around 14 light novels of spinoffs, of which the anime has only covered the Megumin prequel). Once season 4 is out, the anime will be halfway through the main story. We can probably look forward to a 20th anime anniversary.😅
1000-MAT2026-01-13 14:25
There are many birthdays this year.
Childish-KBino2026-01-13 14:28
Genuinely one of the only shows outside of Grand Blue to make me consistently laugh throughout each episode.

You may not see her, but she's there
AnikRAGE2026-01-13 14:49
I have always wondered who the buff dude is. Dude has very few lines in the whole anime till now and gets featured on the poster. Something makes me feel he's the demon king all along just chilling.
Euroversett2026-01-13 16:14
This is probably the theory every fan comes up with when watching the anime.
CuriousBroccolli2026-01-13 14:50
Aqua standing in the center like the Goddess she is 😤
Aerodynamic412026-01-13 14:51
Man, time sure flies...
M3talK_H3ronaru2026-01-13 15:58
Happy Anniversary
PinkiePie___2026-01-13 15:59
Sometimes I forgot that Aqua is the main love interest of Kazuma.
Euroversett2026-01-13 16:16
You forgot wrong, because she isn't.
PinkiePie___2026-01-14 15:23
She's clearly in the center, right next to Kazuma.
Euroversett2026-01-14 17:41
Are you serious?
That was what made you reach the conclusion that she's a, or rather, the main love interest?
Used-Caregiver30212026-01-13 16:25
I love how its Aqua always in the middle
Xx420EdgeLord69xX2026-01-13 19:33
They had to straight up meta-nerf her by just having Kazuma not find her attractive for no real reason to avoid having to confront the fact that realistically she's hot as fuck and he would if the author didn't just say 'he doesn't think so, because reasons' lol
oops_i_made_a_typi2026-01-13 22:51
> reasons
well, her personality has plenty of problems
Euroversett2026-01-14 03:13
But there's only one trait of it that turns Kazuma off: the fact she constantly insults and belittles him, especially his looks and personality.
Mkilbride2026-01-14 05:05
To be fair, that's a big problem.
Euroversett2026-01-14 03:11
>Kazuma not find her attractive
He does. According to him, he could tell she was a Goddess by just looking at her the first time they met, and she was more than just cute like TV idols, rather, no human could match her beauty.
Not being attracted to someone isn't the same as not thinking someone is attractive.
> if the author didn't just say 'he doesn't think so, because reasons' lol
He likes nice, gentle, caring and empathetic girls who will pamper him. The fact Aqua insults him a lot, treats him like shit, says he's perverted, ugly, weak, virgin, and laugh at him, mock him, make fun of him... was all a huge turn off to Kazuma who's insecure about his looks and ability to flert with girls.
He can't bring himself to be into her, it hurts his pride, it pisses him off that she treats him like that. So while they get along as friends, he can't see her in a romantic light, because it'd make him a "simp" to a girl who belittles him and sees him as vastly inferior. He has to reject romantic interest to remain as an equal in their relationship.
n080dy1232026-01-14 12:24
>He likes nice, gentle, caring and empathetic girls who will pamper him.
And so he has to make due with the loud one because that's the best he's gonna get.
Euroversett2026-01-14 17:42
I don't think I get it. Who's this loud one you're talking about?
n080dy1232026-01-14 19:42
Megumin. The movie and S3 have started shipping them together.
STALAL2026-01-14 07:45
I mean, yeah, megumin turned out to be the most popular but aqua is far and away the face of the franchise and who I feel really makes konosuba konosuba with her character and design
love her, really need a better figure of her than old figma
RaysFTW2026-01-13 16:30
10 years of best-girl-of-all-time Aqua.
jp66412026-01-13 17:03
Did Darkness ever come back, I remember she left all moody for some reason and left the team for a bit, but I don't remember if she came back or not ? I remember they were helping this one princess chick for a while season. Lmk.
Yesshua2026-01-13 20:37
Yeah the end of season 3 reset everything basically to status quo. Season 4 will start with the team bumming around their mansion being lazy until [insert crisis here] drags them into another adventure.
RhysA2026-01-14 01:19
S3 ends with her coming back, its actually a fairly poignant scene for a comedy anime.
n080dy1232026-01-14 12:26
And one of the surprisingly most successful escapades they've gotten involved in.

This is the second anime I watched after Naruto right next to Re zero. Congratulations Konosuba. I am happy you came a long way.

DoggedStooge2026-01-14 00:55
I know I've seen somewhere that mohawk guy is an anime-original character, but this just pushes me even further into the camp of people convinced he's gonna end up being the demon king.
Euroversett2026-01-14 03:17
While some cuts and changes happened, Konosuba is easily one of the, if not the most faithful LN adaptation out there.
Something like an anime-original, cameo joke-like character being changed to be the DK is simply out of question.
warjoke2026-01-14 01:02
What's the name of Kazuma's forever hype man again? The mercenary dude with mohawk? I think he truly deserve that spot on this artwork.
