the demon boss trope is so overplayed yet the product testing excuse is just too funny to ignore and it makes the whole thing feel less serious
sailor_mars
that scene where she realized he actually fits the XL size was hilarious and I could not stop laughing at how red her face got
benimaru_blaze_152
I feel like the episode was way too short, but the chemistry between Saki and her boss is starting to get really tense despite how weird the setup is
tsuyu_tsunami_125
animation during the spice scenes is way better than the first episode and the level of detail during the actual testing part was really good
kikwi_294
Sudou is pushy but the way he just took charge in the bedroom had me shaking and I can't believe she really tried to hide those condoms under the pillow
rosa_sisters_276
Saki trying to treat a sex toy review like a serious office project is the funniest thing, and Sudou's reaction to her spreadsheet was perfect
muichiro_misty
The voice acting for Sudou is so deep and it really fits his demon boss persona during the more intense moments at her place
yuzuriha_yarn
Watching Saki struggle with those instructions while Sudou just watched her was the best part of the episode and she is definitely the most relatable character so far
atticus_358
I really wasn't expecting Sudou to be that aggressive so early on, and the way he just took over Saki's apartment was kind of a lot. My favorite part was definitely her internal monologue while she was staring at the XL box because her facial expressions are just gold. I just wish the episodes were longer because five minutes is not enough time
clemont_340
It is pretty weird how quickly they got into it but the art for Sudou was actually really nice for such a short episode
aizen_ascendant_461
Sudou is a total jerk for teasing her like that but I loved the part where he finally stopped talking and just took charge
professor_rowan_331
The way they cut the episode so short right when things were getting good is criminal because we barely got to see any of the actual testing process
gohan_glory
Sudou acting all smug while Saki is freaking out about the condom size is so funny and it makes their dynamic way better than most shows like this
lance_328
You really have to wonder how Saki keeps her job after this but seeing her try to be professional while he is basically naked was hilarious
ai_hayasaka
I can't believe Saki actually went through with the testing after seeing how huge Sudou is and my face was heating up the whole time
sailor_aluminum_seiren_391
That cliffhanger at the end with the condom wrapper was actually stressful because someone is definitely going to walk in on them next time and get a huge shock
kenpachi_berserker
I found it hilarious watching Saki try to keep her composure at work after what happened, especially since Sudou was acting like nothing even happened at all.
maria_campbell
Sudou is such a menace for making her do that in the office breakroom and the way she gets so flustered over the smallest things is actually pretty cute
rei_hino_373
The animation in this one felt a bit stiff during the dialogue scenes and there should have been more time for the actual comedy instead of just jumping straight to the spice
genos_guardian_118
I think Saki trying to hide that she actually liked it is the funniest part of this episode and Sudou just being completely shameless about the whole testing situation makes it way better
EPISODE CONTEXT
Coming off Episode 1's introduction of Saki and Keisuke's unexpected connection through her part-time work, Episode 2 functions as the relationship's first real stress test — moving beyond setup into genuine dynamic-building. It sits at the quarter-mark of the eight-episode run, meaning the groundwork laid here will directly inform the emotional stakes of the middle stretch. What happens between Saki and Keisuke in this episode carries forward into Episodes 3 and beyond, making it a key bridge in the season's overall arc.
