I seem to recall that Kazuma's little quips of "Yes, I'm Kazuma" were entirely improv by his VA and not planned to be there at all, but it was so funny they just turned it into a running gag. I may be wrong on that, but either way, it's hilarious so what does it matter lol

[@Peace7904]

It started as a VA gag.

[@Vasharan]

Not just his catchphrase, but the VA for Kazuma would improv a lot of lines, and the director liked it so much it became part of the humor of the show.

[@AnimeWins]

Thanks so much for the comment, I really appreciate it and hope you enjoy the video : )

[@Necrikus]

I seriously love Konosuba because it just feels like the author was fully willing to write the characters in a way you really don't see that often. Other series will maybe have one or two characters act so out of the pale, but here it's practically the whole cast. As for the anime specifically, you can just feel how much fun everyone had making it, from the animation itself to the voice acting.

[@AnimeWins]

Absolutely spot on.

[@n124ajdx]

i actually saw a lot of anime where the full cast of characters are great, just like Konosuba, and all those anime are in my favourite anime list. i also saw one anime that has 99% unlikable characters and surprise surprise it's one of the few anime i hate

[@remyhavoc4463]

Yup, even the irrelevant characters are memeable and good in some way (except eris, but I do like the memes) What other anime shows lack is the understanding of what makes the characters interesting and unique Sometimes, they just roll the wheel and get a random personality and design for a character. So the result is that they become a try hard I don't wanna name names here because I don't think it deserves the hate but I dropped Princess Connect midway because I just don't see anything interesting about the characters even though they aren't exactly the most generic characters ever, something about it feels generic and basic af

Fun fact, the author of Konosuba and the author of Re:Zero are friends, and they've written some crossovers. 16:14 The language used on those posters actually translates back into Japanese. You could, if you wanted to, learn the Konosuba language. The same goes for the language used in Re:zero.

[@AnimeWins]

Never knew this, thanks!

[@TheScarletSlayer]

You know in one episode of Re: Zero in season one. The episode where they have the snow party you'll see early in the episode around minute 16 I think a brief picture of the Konosuba gang. Grant it it doesn't show their faces buts its painfully obvious it's them.

Konosuba is really a perfect comedy! I can't stop laughing at the scenes even today.

Personally I cringe in enjoyment. It just goes all out and gives no apologies and it's amazing. But what was episode eleven of season one. Was that a dream

Ah yes point out everything great about this masterpiece, it's gonna be long one. EDIT: I love KonoSuba an illegal amount of level as well...as for why, basically because it just does comedy, good characters and even fights so RIGHT!

Gotta love how every single one of Megumin's spell chants are unique. Also the fact that the Dullahan came back to the town, seriously concerned about Darkness after cursing her.

[@griffinbryant5016]

The thing I really appreciate about this show is they never forget Kazutrash, the Pervert of Axel, is the kind of person who will die to save someone else without thinking about it

[@AnimeWins]

Funny enough I touch on that in the upcoming S2 vid

[@JakkFrost1]

17:28 the cool thing there is Kazuma's voice actor ad-libbed that "Hai Kazuma desu", and they loved it so much they kept it as a running gag! And I'm so glad he did, it's one of my favorite parts of the whole show! Plus it seems to me like it's kind of a counter to your "saying someone's name instead of speaking normally cliche" sin. 🤣 Also, you clearly watched a different subbed version than I did, some of the different translations are a little... disorienting. 😳

[@captainswag8120]

Yeah how do you find this sub version? Would anyone know?

[@ethermelt4780]

One of my favorite anime of all time. Everything about it is solid gold and showcases the sheer love and effort put into it by the cast and animators both!

[@Norbert_Sattler]

When I first saw it, I took Aqua's words at face value... but I have to say that upon re-watch I couldn't help but wonder if Aqua just made up all the stuff in the hospital to mess with Kazuma. I know that the tractor stuff was real and the girl even got a broken arm from Kazuma's attempt to rescure her, but beyond that? I wouldn't put it past Aqua to make up such a lie for her own amusement. I also love how even the horse of the headless horseman is headless too. ^^

[@TaoToecan]

Be it anime, manga or light novel, the jokes always land and there is barely a joke that gets stale. All of that combined with great personalities, actual character development and great world building makes it one of the best comedy series when it comes to humor and subverting tropes. The whole KonoSuba series holds a very dear place in my hart and mind.

[@Chris_8]

I will agree with everything you say, but Re:Zero has better character development and world building

[@patrick17736]

I believe this will go down in Anime wins history, COMEDY AT IT’S PEAK!

[@JumbleMumble]

Konosuba is one of those shows that got me back into anime. I stopped watching shows for a while because "oh you watch anime? That's all nerd stuff!". It will always have a special place in my heart because of that. Every single episode had me in tears multiple times

[@terrencenoran3233]

The best thing about Konosuba is that you can identify the main cast differently if you watch either the dub or the sub, and yet, is still accurate to the characters For example: Sub Darkness: A knight with masochistic tendencies. Dub Darkness: A masochist who happens to be a knight.

[@nikemegu1142]

God i might be a little obsessed with this anime Ive already finished the light novel multiple times, read each spin off and have been following anything konosuba related on basically every social media platform i use And megumin has been my waifu for a year now and i dont think it'll be changing anytime soon

[@baldychkn2949]

Is there actually a season 3 coming out, is it another movie, or did the show get canceled?

[@MasterPoppers]

​@@samuelevans738 There is _something_ coming soon. We just aren't sure what. The Crimson Demon arc worked well for a movie giving its spectacle and its good feature-length (granted, some things were cut). But I imagine Volumes 6 and 7 will be used for Season 3.

The fact that Megumin's first reason to join Kazuma was to get food and overall join a good party and still refused to join the other isekai guy who's clearly richer and stronger proves that she is indeed best 😂

Also proves how shady the rich guy is.

This szene is even more hilarious when you know Aquas attacks have all the water attribute and frogs are immune against water

[@cooper5602]

(Small "Combatants will be Dispatched" Spoilers) One of my favorite things is that this and Combatants will be Dispatched are made by the same creator and take place in the same universe. Idk if anyone noticed but it CWBD, toward the end of the season, the crew builds a spider looking machine called Destroyer, the mobile fortress. And when I watched I thought it was from Konosuba but never verified, watching this now I know that Konosuba occurs in the same universe as CWBD. As further proof the Kisaragi Corporation say that every evil invention needs a self-destruct function, which explains the plot twist in Konosuba. This is fucking gigabrain writing and I love it very much.

@@chadcj1 ho it is, it's just that the anime adds some scenes and takes away others. Also, the light novel goes more in depth in explaining some scenes that the anime just goes through.

[@tric5122]

I don't think I realized it until watching this breakdown, but Megumin and Darkness playing chess is a hint at Darkness' status as chess was a game of kings. Even though Megumin is smarter and should win, she isn't as well versed in the game was Darkness b/c Darkness grew up an aristocrat, and Megumin was poor. Your vid just turned me onto ALL the foreshadowing that happens in this anime, it's EVERYWHERE. They really thought this entire thing through. How much do I love this anime? I had basically stopped watching anime until I saw this, it led me into Demon Slayer, and between the 2 now that I'm back into it, I'm struggling to find anything that really captures my attention long enough to finish even a full season.

[@randominternetguy3537]

The fact they can go from serious to comedy back to serious over and over seamlessly is impressive and sets it apart imo.

[@Seergun]

Another thing about the end is it show how ridiculously powerful Wiz is. She throws out that EXPLOSION! like its nothing while Megumin falls over everytime... A joke I've heard is if you have someone who can't show up to some of your D&D, or similar, sessions, have them have a move/ability like EXPLOSION! and just say they blew it at the start and are back at the inn/cart/etc. SPOILERS if they ever make a season 3+ The funniest thing about Kazuma stealing Chris's panties is Chris is actually Eris, the only? "person" in the world with a higher luck stat than him.

Konosuba was my first anime and still the goat in my heart! Have watched it over 15 times and it never gets old! It was also the first LN series I read and the first anime movie I went to see in theaters. I have been watching anime for 3 years now and that path all began because of konosuba. It is such an integral and influential part of my life that I can honestly say discovering it was a life changing experience. I have begun trying to write my own comedy series inspired by Konosuba and Gintama and all the rest of the world's funniest anime, that is how much I love it!

i would like to point out something i just noticed, the black part of Megumin's winter outfit is like i one piece leotard with no open hole with zippers, strings, or buttons. so my only conclusion is that each time she has to wear it she has to stretch the neck hole wide enough to pull the entire suite on. which is impressive in itself when you realize that it's long sleeved with a pants like bottom... i may be overthinking, but upon further research into multiple shot's with her in that outfit, this is the only answer i could come to.
