REVIEW | "KonoSuba: An Explosion on This Wonderful World!" | B3 - Boston Bastard Brigade

KonoSuba: God’s Blessing on This Wonderful World! is a comedic gem. One of the funniest anime to come out in the last ten years, the tale of Kazuma, Aqua, Megumin, and Lalatina Darkness as they aim to take down the Devil King is been anime’s answer to the British sitcom. However, no one on the show has reached the explosive popularity quite like Megumin, whose personality and comedic timing shines brighter than anyone else in the adventurer’s guild. A spinoff about her origin tale seems like a no-brainer, as more of the best character sound right on paper. Alas, while KonoSuba: An Explosion on This Wonderful World! has its moments, it lacks the real firepower of the main series.

The anime begins with a young Megumin (Rie Takahashi) watching a mage unleash a mighty explosion. Inspired by her power, the girl aims to learn explosion magic, much to her teacher’s laughable warning. Thankfully, with her friend Yunyun (Aki Toyosaki), little sister Komeko (Maria Naganawa), and a mysterious winged black cat in her corner, Megumin aims to accomplish her goal of learning explosion magic. But in order to do so, she’ll have to crack a few eggs; or — in her case — a couple of duxion necks.

With Megumin not having learned her explosion magic, the first few episodes focus on her determination to earn enough skill points to gain said magic. Her schoolmates and teachers laugh at the idea of her mastering the skill, as it’s deemed by many to be a useless power. Then again, when the head teacher’s main rule of magic is to always look very cool, it’s clear that there’s not much going on in many of the mages’ heads. Like the main series, everyone in KonoSuba: An Explosion on This Wonderful World! is an S-tier moron.

Megumin is still a hoot to watch, as she scavenges for low-tier food, tries to sell Chomusuke to a weird lady, or become increasingly jealous of everyone’s bigger bust size. Yunyun comes into her own as Megumin’s rival-in-crime, with the two bettering one another skill-wise. However, while the main series has a great mixture of lovable idiots, the spinoff doesn’t do much to fill the spot Megumin’s cohorts usually stand in. Her schoolmates may get a laugh, but they feel more like background characters than replacements.

Prompt 208

So Danny would feel exasperated, and probably should. But Dan is actually doing good and hasn’t even bitten anyone during this situation so that’s a win in his books. Now if the turned-into-a-four-year-old could tell him where he managed to grab this other child when he was supposed to be at the babysitter’s, that would be swell. 

Or why there is a hero who nearly broke the door down in a right panic. 

Like genuinely, he doesn’t know who was more surprised, him, or the hero who came running up half in a panic attack.
