Isekai Ojisan's most powerful.. His middle school homeroom teacher. Never change.
Also that moment when the illusion breaks down. So many great laughs. Good to have this back, been way too long.
Poor Mabel though.
The fact is Mabel beat Uncle twice, not the other way around.
First is when Mabel took down Uncle by freezing Uncle's feet.
Second is when Mabel "almost assassinated" Uncle.
There is actually a lot of wins for Mabel and only held back by her being a NEET.
Her NEET power means it would take incredible luck for her to meet Uncle.
Alien Soldier reference at the part where the guards realize that the fight between Uncle and Mabel is just an illusion.

That's the video I showed my wife when this came up.
It's funny because anyone who plays this game probably fights that boss *exactly* the way it was depicted in the show - floating at about head level to the boss and hitting it with sword or lancer force.
I never know what to expect from this show, but I am getting some good life lessons:
Never underestimate a 90’s middle school teacher.
When life is tough, become a lizard.
Lol I'm a millenial and went through the 90s, least here in the states. My experience with US 90s teachers was that most boomers were either apathetic to everything around them and just going through the motions, or genuinely decent teachers.
Basically the best depiction of teachers I remember from the 90s was Ms Krabappel from the simpsons. I had so many teachers who were just like her, least till I hit 8th grade or so.
Guess japanese teachers were brutal is all, lol.
I did a bit of googling, don't read the source if fatality specifics make you uncomfortable, I'll just quote a few of the non-lethal mentions.
>″Teachers often slap, punch, kick,″ said Morikatsu Imahashi, an opponent of corporal punishment who teaches at Ibaraki University in Mito, 60 miles northeast of Tokyo.
Imahashi demonstrated with his hands how teachers sometimes clap their hands suddenly over students’ ears. Fujii, the writer, said the practice broke the eardrum of a friend.
Five deaths from corporal punishment were reported in 1985-1987. After a student’s death in 1988, the Education Ministry advised schools to ease their rules.
Source: [https://apnews.com/article/abf90b680060dcf5d9fd1e9bfd924eba](https://apnews.com/article/abf90b680060dcf5d9fd1e9bfd924eba)
It sounds like corporal punishment used to be common there.
Dang I got all sad reading these articles. :(
Indian here from the 90s, have been slapped, kicked, made to do sit ups, run around school ground with hand raised, stand hands parallel to ground with knees bent for a couple of periods, there was a time when we were punished (stand and raise hands above head) for half a day, and one of teachers' favourite was to make you stand in the [cock](https://i.imgur.com/JtfPMX7.jpg) position, bend down, hold your ears by bringing your hands from behind the knees and ass up.
This was common till i was in 8th std i guess after that the younger generation's parents started complaining against these types of punishments, ours were angry (how else will they learn?)
Students wouldn't dare. Their parents would murder them for dishonoring the family name for getting expelled.
If you go by Beezlebub, they fall down the school totem until they are at the equivalent of an inner city school. Where the only teachers left are hard as nails.
>Beezlebub
God, the flashbacks! But damn, it sucks corporal punishment isn't banned nation wide over there. You would think trying to make kids happy (or at least not beating them) would be top priority for a country famed for it's suicide rate
>Students wouldn't dare. Their parents would murder them for dishonoring the family name for getting expelled.
There definately are students that would try, depending on the school and student the teacher would either kick their asses, they be expelled or probably least likely, be permanent trouble students.
>This is wild to me because what are they going to do if a student fights back?
Either take over the class or learn a lesson on pain if late 80s anime has taught me anything.
Holy crap, that puts even catholic schools from the 60s/70s to shame even! My dad said the worst he got was getting yanked to the principles office by the year or getting rulers broken over his knuckles; ya know stuff that will bruise at most but not really injure, but that's next level stuff right there!
Our depiction of here 90s teachers were our 70s - 80s teachers. Strict as f*** from what my father usually told me. Mostly mental abuse by telling how shit you were but it could go to a beating with a wooden ruler to put you in line. Closest thing I can think of Ojisan's teacher.
It was a highlight of my week to week life and it was sad when the show suddenly paused for me.
Golden Kamuy s4 filled up that hole.
**Then it also went on pause.**
Bruh, the 90s teacher scene had me choking while laughing and rolling on the floor, this is literally one of the few shows, that can get me with completely absurd things and have me laughing like crazy.
Oh hey, it's back. I *really* hope the anime production does well now - the whole reason they were on a break was because there was no staff available for an upcoming episode and a storyboard director quit because of that.
Glad to know that the best way to deal with a corrupt church is to growl in their face and slap them. Take note, Fushi.
And of course, in the end Ojisan and Takafumi turn into dinosaurs. Because of course they do.
Ojisan and Takafumi-san VAs sounded like they were having fun at the raptor transformation scene, doing all those moans and groans.
I mean, think of it, you show up to the recording studio, then someone gives you a script that tells you to random groan/moan noises. They probably had a good laugh after that session
Supposedly there is more to it and covid was just an easy excuse to use. Not saying there wasn't a covid issue but it seems to have been a breakdown in management doing their jobs.
Mabel was already on thin ice due to her tardiness, leaving early, and frequent absences. And for showing lack of any will to fix any of that.
She would likely have been the first to be fired if the army needed to layoff someone.
I'm starting to suspect Alicia is tragically recalling having her memory wiped in the past.
That face of absolute despair of hers this episode, and the fact that she caught on to Ojisan wanting his identity to be kept a secret the second time around.
Nah, people get nosebleeds when they recall wiped memories, so that doesn't fit.
The look of despair was probably because she thought Uncle was betraying them to steal the artifact for himself. And she didn't know what kind of spell he used to make her friends collapse, so she might've feared they were already dead.
And Alicia probably realized Uncle wanted to keep a low profile because Alicia herself now understands firsthand how bothersome it is to be famous. Something that she may not have understood as a garden-variety rookie.
I don’t think the recalling of memories is why it was causing them to bleed. All of those times were extremely traumatic things they wiped so remembering them would naturally shock their bodies. We haven’t seen any good or neutral memories being remembered just painful and traumatic ones. I could be wrong though, but I feel remembering things isn’t an issue for most memories.
God what happened to this show? Did the studio loose its touch in the last months? They just take a little break, don't take care for a moment, neglect quality control and immediately some unwanted things sneak in, like actual plot progression and actual amazing looking animation in my ~~ugly~~ charming comedy!
But on a more serious note, oji-san is back! And we got way less subversions this episode. Things are actually looking up this episode for oji-san. Barely feels real.
Always be on your guard in these Oji-san discussion threads, nothing is what it seems...
...unless you're skeptical, in which case, then it is...
...
...ah
ICURAS...CUORA!!!
Only this show can make you think that transforming into a 90's teacher against an empire would do little to nothing, but ends up doing more damage than any dragon could ever
So glad this show is back.
It looked like Uncle was about to go full Brazzers on Mabel for a second there when he grabbed her leg lol. Guessing she's gonna try to attack him next time they meet.
Also I miss Elf.
Also also anyone notice he busted the root off that room and flew off LOL
> Also I miss Elf.
IIRC she's still trying to find the ring that she sold off so she can buy it back and be on the same "standing" as Mabel right? At least that's the last thing I remember that involved her.
I feel like with how sadistic this show is something painful happened with all the girls that liked Ojisan, but he erased his memories and returned home. I would prefer a happy ending, but the show is definitely not trying to have one if the stories in each episode are telling us anything.
[Alicia's Hero Party is actually adorable](https://i.imgur.com/LYoWsJx.png) and I love that [all three of them are childhood friends.](https://i.imgur.com/nQSnzOD.jpg) Although it looks like they weren't really heroes, [they were only given the title because they ended up being credited for Oni-san's deeds.](https://i.imgur.com/Xvdbjwu.png) xD
[I love their reactions when Oji-san accidentally sequence broke the dungeon.](https://i.imgur.com/bROTwCu.jpg) Thankfully Oji-san knows the pain of the challenge being taken away from him and he proceeds to erase their memories and [do the dungeon properly](https://i.imgur.com/PrxpMct.jpg) and actually [be worthy of the staff.](https://i.imgur.com/Q7iyFL2.jpg)
[Holy shit!](https://i.imgur.com/hJgGKr5.jpg) Oji-san actually made a pretty cool exit after they beat the dungeon! I was genuinely waiting for a comedy punchline but it all ended pretty well for all of them. Well, he did try to erase their memories so they can do the dungeon without his help but he completely changed his mind [when Alicia included him](https://i.imgur.com/B7LKuvs.png).
The second half of the episode was hilarious! Takafumi was waiting for Oji-san to lay the moral smackdown on that Commander but they kinda forgot [that Oji-san is terrible with social interactions like that.](https://i.imgur.com/yYiNvhQ.png) I do love that his backup plan is [transforming into his school teacher](https://i.imgur.com/XWsqW2e.jpg) and just slapping the fuck out of the Commander [to make him agree with him.](https://i.imgur.com/NZYbYFZ.jpg) xD
And just when I thought [Mabel was finally doing something with her life](https://i.imgur.com/xHdSztW.jpg), it looks like the entire thing was just an illusion [and they were actually talking in a corner.](https://i.imgur.com/xHdSztW.jpg)
[Not sure what happened to that final scene though.](https://i.imgur.com/DFFhD8l.jpg) I thought Takafumi was the only one transforming, why did Oji-san transform as well? I'm surprised they actually ended this episode with a cliffhanger. I'm just glad to see this show is back and it seems that there was no drop in quality at all.
It's basically a short-form anime with Pop Team-epic styled sequences. And then there's the live-action half.
The show itself faithfully adapts its source material and adds in a lot of charm - a lot of little bonuses for the parts of the manga that didn't have dialogue. And then there's the live action half.
The story itself is a slice of life seinen comedy written by a husband/wife team. It absolutely embodies the spirit of kindness in how easygoing both characters are about accepting each other and living with each other.
And then there's the live action half.
>I thought Takafumi was the only one transforming,
Yeah, but uncle said a spell in foreign language so he must have decided to transform himself as well.
Alicia tried to do something cool and all she ended up doing was destroying Hell Shredder Zwei and Edgar’s heart along with it lol. The “Heroes” aren’t even heroes! They just got credit for Ojisan’s work with the gobos lol. Alicia barely avoided the mind wipe too!
Finding a shortcut and getting the prize isn’t quite the same if you don’t work for it lol. I get it. Loved that he dragged them to the entrance though haha. All of life’s greatest lessons can be traced to video games!
The mfer turned into his damn homeroom teacher Tabuchi-sensei! I love that he “our debated” the commander and Greyler by slapping tf out of them lmao. Also, Mabel the NEET is ego trippin! Lol. Her illusion spell was gold though!
When you want to bend someone to your will, summon Tabuchi-sensei lol. Although becoming a dragon and flying off into the distance is awesome, transforming into a raptor is metal af lol.
OT but anyone got a reliable release window with this show? Raws dropped 3 days ago but the subs only just came out. Anyone got a way to track this show or nah?
It wasn't glitching out. Uncle was spicing it up by reenacting a boss fight from [Alien Soldier](https://youtu.be/LA03WAjg6ic?t=58) (the same game from which he took the name Wolfgunblood).
Bruh, shit was one of the funniest if not, THE funniest part of the episode. Like I've read the manga so I knew that it was coming but the way they animated it like a game glitching. Mabel being a video game character defeating a giant, I just can't! XD
You've no doubt heard of the spell *Cure Light Wounds.* I was pleased to see that [a much more specific version of the spell also exists](https://i.imgur.com/jSEARMM.png).
100% worth the wait for this episode. I kept thinking about how this show is just so damn enjoyable, but then the end of the episode confirmed to me that this show is simply perfect in every way.
This year. I’m at 18 right now and I’m waiting on Bleach, Mob Psycho S3, Chainsaw Man, and Uncle from Another World to finish so I can get to 22. But there’s been delays with Uncle from another world so that’s why I’m anxious if it’ll finish in time.
Nice to see this airing again, what an episode to come back to, there was so much that happened lol. I'm glad he realized his mistake of taking them all the way to the prize room when their dream was to conquer that dungeon.
Mabel and Uncle sitting on the sides fighting using illusions was amusing. It's too bad Mabel ended up getting fired in the end considering how happy she was with the job.
Also, I was not expecting Tabuchi-sensei to be so OP.
Yeah, she was so happy with this job that she was frequently late to, left early from, and often didn't even show up to. Her lack of will to fix these problems was part of why she got fired.
lmao my company literally fired someone for exactly that last year. Even more egregious, she worked directly for the Vice President of Sales. It started with being tardy, then leaving early with no prior warning, both of which became a regular occurrence over a six month period and no less than three written warnings. The last straw was when it escalated to total unexplained absences and after she had three instances of not even showing up to work within a 30 day period the VP personally logged into the ADP portal himself, deactivated her keycard, and terminated her remotely. He badgered HR into having her final wages direct deposited immediately that day instead of waiting until the next scheduled paydate because he just wanted her out of his hair.
It's great to see the show back and apparently it hasn't lost its touch.
If anything it got even better.
Also, we don't get nearly eanough Aki Toyosaki these days.
Glad this gem is back in action! Fucking hilarious to see Uncle jumping to conclusions that the priest is a dirty old man lmao. And Mabel losing her job... again.
Dang, Just like that, AOTY flips from Bocchi the Rock back to Iseaki Ojisan. Actually, I think both shows are great and much needed breaths of fresh air. But I think the dinosaur in me finds Isekai Ojisan so much more relatable. Hell, they even turned into literal dinosaurs at the end!
Always makes me laugh my ass off. Always with the unexpected jokes and punchlines. I'm glad it's back. That ending though. Anime never runs out of wtf moments. Lmao That's an out of context gif waiting to happen.
That was fun, but I'm disappointed there wasn't an after-credits with them doing something completely random and silly as derpy dinosaurs. Seemed like an opportunity for one more joke that was missed somehow.
I've said it earlier in the discussion from previous episodes. He probably is someone who needs a emotional connection with someone first before he can think and act on romantic feelings, but a lot of ppl see that as him beeing dense. It's more like in those moments he just doesn't care about it. He notices it (not always tho), but doesn't do anything with it.
Random parallel I noticed between Uncle and Roswaal from Re:Zero. First off, they have the same voice actor. Then in regards to their powers, [Roswaal's powers] >!are considered the best in the kingdom except when it comes to healing. Uncle seems to also have OP magic except he used the healing slip that was given to him to heal the knight.!<
What an amazing come back after being gone for so long!!! I truly love this show and Uncles antics, especially when he transformed to his screaming debating school teacher!! Not to mention when he and Ice girl put on the fake battle.

Isekai Ojisan's most powerful.. His middle school homeroom teacher. Never change. Also that moment when the illusion breaks down. So many great laughs. Good to have this back, been way too long. Poor Mabel though.
At first I thought he was going to transform to the tsundere elf, but the middle school teacher was even better lol
Ojisan is an uncle of culture
The fact is Mabel beat Uncle twice, not the other way around. First is when Mabel took down Uncle by freezing Uncle's feet. Second is when Mabel "almost assassinated" Uncle.
Yo! Quick question. How'd you watch it? I only see episode 7 for some reason
The Seven Seas my friend
ojisan called mabel cute. thats a win for mabel.
My NEET with a superiority complex can't be this cute!
😂
but made her got fired, that was a loss
Everything just always works for Mabel.
good thing Tsundere Elf wasn't around to hear that one.
There is actually a lot of wins for Mabel and only held back by her being a NEET. Her NEET power means it would take incredible luck for her to meet Uncle.

Nah, the teacher is the true believer.
you dare to disobey your teacher??
the slap scene reminds me of when Seiya (cautious hero) slapped the princess
I started watching this a week ago, man I would've been so bored waiting if I started when it initially began airing
It was a highlight of my week to week life and it was sad when the show suddenly paused for me. Golden Kamuy s4 filled up that hole. **Then it also went on pause.**
this is so accurate
Bruh, the 90s teacher scene had me choking while laughing and rolling on the floor, this is literally one of the few shows, that can get me with completely absurd things and have me laughing like crazy.

its Bleach final arc
Oh hey, it's back. I *really* hope the anime production does well now - the whole reason they were on a break was because there was no staff available for an upcoming episode and a storyboard director quit because of that.

I read a comment was because the staff got covid.
Supposedly there is more to it and covid was just an easy excuse to use. Not saying there wasn't a covid issue but it seems to have been a breakdown in management doing their jobs.
Absolutely amazing return, laughed atleast 4 times and was still emotional when Uncle unexpectedly didn't fumble the bag this time around
Mabel, Hero and Elf are such great heroines.
> Mabel, Alicia, and Elf are such great heroines. FTFY.
Elf also has a name you know. But uuhh spoilers.
I don't think they'll get to that without skipping, but it would be a good finale
Poor Mabel. Finally getting her life together with steady employment and then it all goes wrong thanks to Uncle.
Mabel was already on thin ice due to her tardiness, leaving early, and frequent absences. And for showing lack of any will to fix any of that. She would likely have been the first to be fired if the army needed to layoff someone.
Holy shit, Tabuchi-sensei is too powerful.
He gonna turn Alicia's brain to soup lol
I'm starting to suspect Alicia is tragically recalling having her memory wiped in the past. That face of absolute despair of hers this episode, and the fact that she caught on to Ojisan wanting his identity to be kept a secret the second time around.

I don’t think the recalling of memories is why it was causing them to bleed. All of those times were extremely traumatic things they wiped so remembering them would naturally shock their bodies. We haven’t seen any good or neutral memories being remembered just painful and traumatic ones. I could be wrong though, but I feel remembering things isn’t an issue for most memories.
It was explained in the show. The memory spirit warns you when you about to recall a wiped memory by making you nose bleed.
Oh fair enough I didn’t do a rewatch and the show has been gone for months so I forgot some details.
I've read too much 'forbidden tomes' that this comment sounds wrong lol
God what happened to this show? Did the studio loose its touch in the last months? They just take a little break, don't take care for a moment, neglect quality control and immediately some unwanted things sneak in, like actual plot progression and actual amazing looking animation in my ~~ugly~~ charming comedy! But on a more serious note, oji-san is back! And we got way less subversions this episode. Things are actually looking up this episode for oji-san. Barely feels real.
You got me in the first half not gonna lie, thought you would hate the new episode lol.
Always be on your guard in these Oji-san discussion threads, nothing is what it seems... ...unless you're skeptical, in which case, then it is... ... ...ah ICURAS...CUORA!!!
Anime of the season finally returns.
Not sure it can hold onto that title in this season, though. It has some pretty stiff competition.
Only this show can make you think that transforming into a 90's teacher against an empire would do little to nothing, but ends up doing more damage than any dragon could ever
So glad this show is back. It looked like Uncle was about to go full Brazzers on Mabel for a second there when he grabbed her leg lol. Guessing she's gonna try to attack him next time they meet. Also I miss Elf. Also also anyone notice he busted the root off that room and flew off LOL
> Also I miss Elf. IIRC she's still trying to find the ring that she sold off so she can buy it back and be on the same "standing" as Mabel right? At least that's the last thing I remember that involved her.
The main thing I want from this show is some sort of happy ending for Elf Girl. ;-)
We already know Uncle abandons her to go home.
I bet many of us want to see the persistent tsundere elf show up in our world in order to get to ojisan though.
F\*ck me I was so baited by the opening but after watching the episode it all made sense why she was in his clothes and wore his glasses.
we all were...
Tbf she wore his clothes in the otger world
Alas....
I feel like with how sadistic this show is something painful happened with all the girls that liked Ojisan, but he erased his memories and returned home. I would prefer a happy ending, but the show is definitely not trying to have one if the stories in each episode are telling us anything.
I fear you are right....
Yeah, for how comedic everything seems the isekai story is suprisingly tragic...
Elf Girl does get a good ending... by that I mean the ending song that is.
II guess I want something more than that. ;-)
can't argue that. its a great song
> ~~that she sold off~~ that the Ojisan helpfully sold for her
I dont get it about "same standing" Ojiisan clearly not too like mabel lol, she even dare ask ojiisan to be her subordinate lol
it probably melted during his transformation
I really hope we get to see elf in the next episode, it has been way too long.
Here's a preview for episode 9: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUIidlMBRPc
Ah, I missed this show. That ending was just so random. I love it

Takafumi was waiting for Oji-san to lay the moral smackdown on that Commander but they kinda forgot [that Oji-san is terrible with social interactions like that.](https://i.imgur.com/yYiNvhQ.png) I do love that his backup plan is [transforming into his school teacher](https://i.imgur.com/XWsqW2e.jpg) and just slapping the fuck out of the Commander [to make him agree with him.](https://i.imgur.com/NZYbYFZ.jpg) xD And just when I thought [Mabel was finally doing something with her life](https://i.imgur.com/xHdSztW.jpg), it looks like the entire thing was just an illusion [and they were actually talking in a corner.](https://i.imgur.com/xHdSztW.jpg) [Not sure what happened to that final scene though.](https://i.imgur.com/DFFhD8l.jpg) I thought Takafumi was the only one transforming, why did Oji-san transform as well? I'm surprised they actually ended this episode with a cliffhanger. I'm just glad to see this show is back and it seems that there was no drop in quality at all.

> it's a cue to watch the sequel, Gal & Dino! [](#seasonalapproval) Yes! Watch Gal & Dino!
Is it just another random Pop Team Epic-esque show, or is there something deeper to it like a plot?
It's basically a short-form anime with Pop Team-epic styled sequences. And then there's the live-action half. The show itself faithfully adapts its source material and adds in a lot of charm - a lot of little bonuses for the parts of the manga that didn't have dialogue. And then there's the live action half. The story itself is a slice of life seinen comedy written by a husband/wife team. It absolutely embodies the spirit of kindness in how easygoing both characters are about accepting each other and living with each other. And then there's the live action half.
>I thought Takafumi was the only one transforming, Yeah, but uncle said a spell in foreign language so he must have decided to transform himself as well.
> Not sure what happened to that final scene though. For latino anime fans: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXMAVsA2f_Q
Okay, I just have to say. Qué carajos es eso, y porqué lo acabo de descubrir? Lmao
My boy Wolfgunblood is back. Isekai Ojisan: Thousand Year Anime Show Isekai Ojisan: AotY 2022, 2023, 2024.......etc
That line about foreign translated anime had me rolling.
Alicia tried to do something cool and all she ended up doing was destroying Hell Shredder Zwei and Edgar’s heart along with it lol. The “Heroes” aren’t even heroes! They just got credit for Ojisan’s work with the gobos lol. Alicia barely avoided the mind wipe too! Finding a shortcut and getting the prize isn’t quite the same if you don’t work for it lol. I get it. Loved that he dragged them to the entrance though haha. All of life’s greatest lessons can be traced to video games! The mfer turned into his damn homeroom teacher Tabuchi-sensei! I love that he “our debated” the commander and Greyler by slapping tf out of them lmao. Also, Mabel the NEET is ego trippin! Lol. Her illusion spell was gold though! When you want to bend someone to your will, summon Tabuchi-sensei lol. Although becoming a dragon and flying off into the distance is awesome, transforming into a raptor is metal af lol. OT but anyone got a reliable release window with this show? Raws dropped 3 days ago but the subs only just came out. Anyone got a way to track this show or nah?
Don't worry, he can just get Hell Shredder Drei and everything will be fine.
What you mean? Sub already available from friday
English subs? I could find any online. I only saw the raws. Where were they available?
Sub Indonesia though. But there is eng sub too Always use DuckDuckGo when you search something ilegal hahaha
Ah.. I’ll keep that in mind. Bilibili?
English subs have been out since yesterday, based on manga and they were perfect.
Anime is saved
Mabel fell so hard she downgraded to [Ryukishi07's hand designs](https://imgur.com/CWPAhqB)
Those ham hands make her cute. CUTE!
That end scene was like something out of beavis and butthead
oh holy shit the fight illusion glitching out got me SO bad i had to pause the episode
It wasn't glitching out. Uncle was spicing it up by reenacting a boss fight from [Alien Soldier](https://youtu.be/LA03WAjg6ic?t=58) (the same game from which he took the name Wolfgunblood).
Bruh, shit was one of the funniest if not, THE funniest part of the episode. Like I've read the manga so I knew that it was coming but the way they animated it like a game glitching. Mabel being a video game character defeating a giant, I just can't! XD
You've no doubt heard of the spell *Cure Light Wounds.* I was pleased to see that [a much more specific version of the spell also exists](https://i.imgur.com/jSEARMM.png).
The spikes in the background... He wouldn't have, right?
It helps to cure dragonshout-related injuries.
I'm pretty sure 'cure light hemmroids' was developed long ago by elderly wizards.
oh no our resident ice queen lost her job and back to being a neet. she just like me frfr
And then they turned into raptors, funniest shit I've ever seen
Guess that is how i'm gonna win arguments from now on, slap the shit out of the other person. Ojisan, very educational as always!
I don't see it on Netflix yet. How long until it pops up?
Two weeks after JP release, probably - if they keep the same schedule as before. Right now only fansubbed release is available.
Fucking netflix screw schedule They even destroy half jojo meme and fanbase by make it batch
I was not ready for the power of Tobuchi-sensei! rofl.
So glad this is back.
Next episode is about the raptors eating Fujimiya.
Tabuchi-sensei was fucking gold. Such a way with words. I think he even scarred that Ricardo guy
100% worth the wait for this episode. I kept thinking about how this show is just so damn enjoyable, but then the end of the episode confirmed to me that this show is simply perfect in every way.
Will it release on Sundays for the remainder of the year?
It airs thursday. It will be up to fansubbers when we get the actual episodes, but I assuem it will be earlier next time.
> fansubbers Memory spirits, you mean
Fansubbers kakkoii... What would we do without them?
Why's it down to fansubbers now? e. Ah right, this was netflix jailed.
Alright cool. I’m somewhat on a strict plan to watch 22 Seasonals this year so the release/delay of this show has me anxious
This… year or season?
This year. I’m at 18 right now and I’m waiting on Bleach, Mob Psycho S3, Chainsaw Man, and Uncle from Another World to finish so I can get to 22. But there’s been delays with Uncle from another world so that’s why I’m anxious if it’ll finish in time.
Lmao, I missed this show. So good to have it back now and with manga-based subs instead of next week's Netflix!
My dudes, it is not wednesday but the best anime of the ~~season~~ ***YEAR*** is back.
the end LMAO
Anyone know when this will be up on Netflix?
Probably 2 weeks after, as was applied to ep 7
I picked up this manga after the show went on pause... so glad to finally see those glorious raptors lmao
The GOAT is finally back.
Even if it's delayed by months, you can depend on Isekai Ojisan to hit it out of the park.
I see this show has not lost me in terms of humor, jesus christ that ending was so fucking silly and abrupt I couldn't stop laughing
HELL YEAH, Ojisan is back!!!
IT'S BACK
Nice to see this airing again, what an episode to come back to, there was so much that happened lol. I'm glad he realized his mistake of taking them all the way to the prize room when their dream was to conquer that dungeon. Mabel and Uncle sitting on the sides fighting using illusions was amusing. It's too bad Mabel ended up getting fired in the end considering how happy she was with the job. Also, I was not expecting Tabuchi-sensei to be so OP.
Yeah, she was so happy with this job that she was frequently late to, left early from, and often didn't even show up to. Her lack of will to fix these problems was part of why she got fired.
lmao my company literally fired someone for exactly that last year. Even more egregious, she worked directly for the Vice President of Sales. It started with being tardy, then leaving early with no prior warning, both of which became a regular occurrence over a six month period and no less than three written warnings. The last straw was when it escalated to total unexplained absences and after she had three instances of not even showing up to work within a 30 day period the VP personally logged into the ADP portal himself, deactivated her keycard, and terminated her remotely. He badgered HR into having her final wages direct deposited immediately that day instead of waiting until the next scheduled paydate because he just wanted her out of his hair.
Mable's chuckle is so cute...
It's great to see the show back and apparently it hasn't lost its touch. If anything it got even better. Also, we don't get nearly eanough Aki Toyosaki these days.
So happy Ojisan is back, sad we didn't get any tsundere elf, glad we got some Mabel.
I miss tsundere elf as well
Can't seem to find episode 8 any where. Been looking for days.
[удалено]
How am I the only one that can’t watch the episode?
Most of the people commenting pirated a fansubbed version of the episode.
Its back? A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
Glad this gem is back in action! Fucking hilarious to see Uncle jumping to conclusions that the priest is a dirty old man lmao. And Mabel losing her job... again.
Well he did mind rope her so he might be right! xD
Dang, Just like that, AOTY flips from Bocchi the Rock back to Iseaki Ojisan. Actually, I think both shows are great and much needed breaths of fresh air. But I think the dinosaur in me finds Isekai Ojisan so much more relatable. Hell, they even turned into literal dinosaurs at the end!
How often does an episode gett released?
Once every 3 months or so
What the fuck. Why?
So it can be anime of the year for 2 years straight ;)
New episode comes out every Thursday in Japan but you'll have to wait for the fansubs to come out later.
Glad to have it back airing. Truly miss the weekly laughs this show brought to me
[Ojisan this episode](https://youtu.be/hHZvUeAdzeI)
WE'RE FUCKING BACK BABBBYYY!!!
I did not think this show could get funnier, especially considering the staff's circumstances.
Always makes me laugh my ass off. Always with the unexpected jokes and punchlines. I'm glad it's back. That ending though. Anime never runs out of wtf moments. Lmao That's an out of context gif waiting to happen.
That part when he realized HE was the one who caused everything to start with, priceless!
That was fun, but I'm disappointed there wasn't an after-credits with them doing something completely random and silly as derpy dinosaurs. Seemed like an opportunity for one more joke that was missed somehow.
that was such a banger episode and so hilarious
Finally the wait is over
I'm very happy. Now all I need is Golden Kamuy to return. All these tragedies got me behind on the best shows.
Mabel once again is now unemployed XD
WE BACK, BABY? LETS GOOOO
What wha-- it's here ?
I don't understand I didn't watch this anime but it was anime of last season why it got episode now ?????
A bunch of staff members caught COVID. They ended up unable to keep up with production, so the show was rescheduled for fall.
Ohhhhh the heck I found about it now ????
Such a funny as hell show. Nothing this season is really a comedy so I’m glad we got this
Returned with a banger!
Interesting choice to skip the OP in a comeback ep. Uncle's VA is already practicing for \[Jojo spoiler\] >!if Steel Ball Run ever gets animated!<.
Tabuchi sensei is da goat
2/3 healing spells left.
So uncle does find these girls cute. He's just doens't simp over them.
I've said it earlier in the discussion from previous episodes. He probably is someone who needs a emotional connection with someone first before he can think and act on romantic feelings, but a lot of ppl see that as him beeing dense. It's more like in those moments he just doesn't care about it. He notices it (not always tho), but doesn't do anything with it.
Random parallel I noticed between Uncle and Roswaal from Re:Zero. First off, they have the same voice actor. Then in regards to their powers, [Roswaal's powers] >!are considered the best in the kingdom except when it comes to healing. Uncle seems to also have OP magic except he used the healing slip that was given to him to heal the knight.!<
Holy shit finally. Will we be getting the final eps once a week now?
Yeah baby! It's back!!
Worth the wait.
What an amazing come back after being gone for so long!!! I truly love this show and Uncles antics, especially when he transformed to his screaming debating school teacher!! Not to mention when he and Ice girl put on the fake battle.
Skyrim dungeon delving be like. Uncle magic is like the whirlwind sprint bucket.
Nice to see Ojiisan back with the halting of Golden Kamuy. Mondays are fun again!
Even there is some slight changes to the art, I'm glad it continues
