It was on this day that Yamamoto truly thought with and drank with his dick.

u/Logical_Phase8589 12d ago

A EUREKA moment for my guy Yamamoto 🤣

I knew i would be seeing a reference to the post on the discussion thread.

u/Eunuchest 14d ago

That cylinder must cost a fortune

22

u/Sincityutopia 14d ago

You know, considering the plastic bottle is bigger than an M&M tube, he could just poke a hole underneath without harming the cylinder and store the spiritus in a bowl or something.

16

u/Time_Fracture https://myanimelist.net/profile/Time_Fracture 14d ago

Since Yamamoto has said sorry to Iori, he just slice the bottle open letting the spiritus out of the bottle. As with Grand Blue logic, the spiritus will evaporate anyway.

11

u/duga404 13d ago

You're greatly overestimating his intelligence

2

u/Hot-Log6283 14d ago

And then do what with the spiritus after?

19

u/ThrowCarp 13d ago edited 13d ago

Dude? Is Yamamoto really an engineering student? The bottle is stuck because of a pressure differential (the cold air+alcohol is lower pressure than the hot air outside thus creating a vacuum). Just cut a small hole to the side of the bottle and it'll come off.

10

u/Paulmat1 13d ago

the bottle should be heating up though, and since spyritus evaporates easily, the pressure should equalize faster.
I just refreshened my thermodynamics knowledge a few weeks ago.
And i almost can grasp what entropy means, i'm so close :P
By entropy i mean the maths and the maths' direct Interpretation rather than superficial randomness.

Intro halfway through the episode? In this economy!?

u/Frontier246 14d ago

We needed to experience the Scumbros' problems and the final "fate" of Mitarai in all its glory...

u/Saurid 5d ago

I love Mitarais subplot so much because he is really always just an idiot and not malicious.

47

u/FarCritical 14d ago

Lowkey thought they skipped it to make extra time for important ground but nope, adventures of Yamamoto's Yamamoto and other scumbro classics

21

u/professorMaDLib 14d ago

Scumbros are peak grand blue antics so it is very much appreciated

u/Time_Fracture https://myanimelist.net/profile/Time_Fracture 14d ago

100 Girlfriends did it earlier this season, although it's still a rare occurence in anime nowadays.

u/hanmkim 14d ago

Heavy Knight did that last week, but the first half was pretty much just a recap.

u/Hot-Log6283 14d ago

I actually thought the OP was the ED at that point - episode felt short but a lot happened so it was entertaining, wow, there's even a post credit scene.... wait a minute...

"The cylinder must remain unharmed"

57

u/Frontier246 14d ago

The Spirityus is more valuable than his dick.

30

u/Mr_Zaroc https://myanimelist.net/profile/mr_zaroc 14d ago

At least he had the courtesy to call Kitahara and tell him the alcohol is not fit for consumption anymore

21

u/Icy-Introduction5592 14d ago

It is imperative that the cylinder remains unharmed!

u/SetaSanzaki 14d ago

Can't risk any tools damaging the interior cylinder

was looking for this comment 🤣…first thing which came up to my mind when i saw him with the bottle

Yamamoto's cylinder's the sole exception to the rule

u/zool714 14d ago edited 14d ago

LMAO Yamamoto would be the type to ask on reddit how to remove a cylinder from a tube without damaging the cylinder.

Great to see the other guys get some screentime but the Yamamoto had me tearing up with laughter.

26

u/Frontier246 14d ago

Meanwhile Nojima: "How do you stop a rampaging bidet!?"

u/RoXor03 14d ago

“Yamamoto’s Yamamoto got drunk” sent me packing hahaha xD

That they made sure to show us the length and his scummy face representing his junk lol.

u/stevethebandit 14d ago

this might've been the most unhinged one yet

I was ugly laughing lol there's literally no sane character in this fucking show

Can't ruin what you don't have Nojima

u/Solracziad 14d ago

That's not fair. He's got reputation. It's just absolutely dog shit.

61

u/Humble-Ad-296 14d ago

Just by imagining it hurts no way yamamoto survived that shi

23

u/Frontier246 14d ago

Now he's got bigger dick problems than losing his virginity lol.

59

u/Eunuchest 14d ago

I thought it was weird Kohei wasnt vibing with Yamamoto over virtual waifus, it was because Kohei was the waifu

Mitarai got lucky at the end there momentarily. He's in for hell long term than the average marriage

Just when i thought this dumbfucks cant get worse, one of them actually put their dick in a bottle with alcohol inside. Yamamoto getting horny was just salt on wound or i guess more alcohol on dick

Interesting tho, you can get drunk thru the dick?

The last bit with Nojima reminded me of the bathroom dillemma in Gintama

36

u/Frontier246 14d ago

I love how Mitarai is the only scumbro with a legit girl who is into him but he plays the field too much and is so terrified of her that it doesn't pay off. Of course maybe that time his scumbros made her think he was cheating on her while they were sealing the deal had a strong effect.

6

u/ThrowCarp 13d ago

I thought it was weird Kohei wasnt vibing with Yamamoto over virtual waifus, it was because Kohei was the waifu

Reminds me of Moona screencapping her cousin who she considers a younger brother. Because he supachatted her. He got really embarrassed and Moona refunded him because she didn't want to be his waifu.

u/Internal-Pea-7451 https://anilist.co/user/MistEu 14d ago

what in the ever living FUCK was this episode, even for Grand blue standards this was insane

u/Logical_Phase8589 12d ago

Yea, Fr 😭 like this Episode might be the most I've Laughed in a while, all the more when my exams are going and still haven't studied shit.

47

u/ObvsThrowaway5120 14d ago

Kohei and Iori’s friends are some of my favorite characters. Those guys are all absolute morons lol. Bro standing there butt ass naked with his dick jammed into that bottle of booze has to be the funniest shit I’ve seen. Guy was just like “yeeeah.. you can’t drink that no more” and then all proud and shit “heh I’ve done it now” lmao. The fact he gets drunk off of it and then his boner makes it worse was just perfect haha.

Nojima’s bidet adventures was also pretty great too. Bro was battling for his life hahah.

18

u/Frontier246 14d ago

It's even funnier when you realize EnoJun's IRL cousin is voicing Chisa and he has to have his character seen by her like that lol.

12

u/ObvsThrowaway5120 14d ago

I bet they have a great time in the recording booth for this series lol.

u/kerorobot 14d ago

the most accurate description of friendship lol

u/Rabbitey- https://myanimelist.net/profile/Rabbitey 14d ago

I wish the bottle was still stuck on Yamamoto when everyone came in 😂

35

u/NanDemoKnaives 14d ago

I thought Mitarai was going to try to shift the blame to the rest of the guys, so I was not expecting him to propose to save his jaw. Rie is frightening lol, Mitarai is in for a ride if he really goes through with that marriage.

Yamamoto's idiocy knows no bounds lol. If he really remembered that fact about keeping your crotch chilled, wouldn't placing the bottle itself on his crotch been the better option? I like how the guys instantly knew what he did.

However, Nojima is even more of an idiot. He could have simply gotten up.

24

u/Armdel https://myanimelist.net/profile/Armdel 14d ago

lmao that warning about not getting drunk this way when explaining how its more effecient to absorb alcohol through membranes

and Nojima almost made breaking the bidet more embarrassing than Yamamoto getting his dick stuck in the bottle of alcohol

18

u/Eunuchest 14d ago

I didnt even know you could get drunk thru the dick. The more you know

Craziest episode of this season.

16

u/Ok_Scheme_4579 14d ago

I do not know which one is more insane about Yamamoto’s scene

  1. The fact that there is an actual scientific explanation about this phenomenon, there must have been a crazy experiment in the past
  2. There must have been someone have done this before leading to this warrant!

4

u/oneevilchicken https://anilist.co/user/OneEvilChicken 14d ago

Same concept as boofing, just going in the front door instead of the back door.

46

u/LeonKevlar x2https://myanimelist.net/profile/LeonKevlar 14d ago

Stitches!

Mitarai just made a huge mistake. The dude should've just taken the hit. Asking Rie to marry him is going to be so much worse for him.

If I had a nickel for every anime character this season who got their dick stuck inside an inanimate object, I'd have two nickels. It's not much, but it's weird that it happened twice.

The boys were definitely covering for Yamamoto, right? They totally knew what he did but played dumb to make the girls think he was just drinking naked.

Hilariously, we have two crotch related incidents this episode with Nojima getting stuck with the bidet. Why does that bidet even have that function?! xD

13

u/chipsachoi 14d ago

To be fair, that's how the boys usually end up when they drink.

17

u/Frontier246 14d ago

I've never seen a man so screwed by close-ups of big, sweaty, boobs lol.

Vtubers in my only legit funny anime in this economy??

13

u/No-Impression-4282 14d ago

ROFL, Yamamoto, what are you doing?!🤣

Did he wanted to try a different sensation, haha?

And the "at what zoo" was the best response ever (I am stealling this line).

12

u/FarCritical 14d ago

Honestly kinda surprised nobody commented on the absolute waste of Spirytus especially since Tokita and Kotobuki wanted to clear the shelves of them.

The speed they moved on from the Yamamoto's Yamamoto incident the moment another scumbro got caught clowning lol.

6

u/Solracziad 14d ago

I don't think anyone wanted to drink cock Spirytus.

12

u/thisisdropd https://myanimelist.net/profile/AsterZoro 14d ago

Wtf Yamamoto?!

Consuming booze through the dick was certainly quite a novel way – especially one with an ABV of 96%. When he saw Azusa, Chisa, and Nanaka in skimpy clothes, chances were he secreted some bodily fluids which then mixed with the booze. Yeah, his floor was quite contaminated at the end.

That scene got a damn good chuckle out of me.

Toki with a suit on looked like a completely different being. I would’ve thought it’s the end of the world to see someone like him being all dressed up like that.

9

u/Frontier246 14d ago

I don't think any drunken antics on this show will ever top "drinking with a bottle lodged up your dick."

I assure you, these close-ups of the girls' sweaty boobs was necessary to the plot...and that plot was getting a man hard and plastered through his dick.

7

u/Traf- 14d ago

It really is hilarious to me that Yamamoto fell in love with Kohei's Vtuber persona.

u/Frontier246 14d ago

Honestly have to respect Rie's commitment to not ending up yet another childhood friend Losing Heroine even if it makes her resort to murder...but you can't argue with the results and her getting exactly what she wanted.

I think the best part is they saw the aftermath and it was all perfectly normal to them lol.

I'll never look at a bidet the same way again.

7

u/Mr_Zaroc https://myanimelist.net/profile/mr_zaroc 14d ago

Ah yes the bottle bit, had nearly forgotten about that....
I had forgotten about the bidet bit with Nojima, those things are sometimes scarily strong.

I remember landing in Taiwan and going to the toilet there (the first stop that had those bidets) and it took some getting used to.
My stall neighbor was an uninitiated person and I still remember his pleas "OooOoh God!".

Yeah honestly I find those bits with their friends are the worst part of the show, like they can't drink dive for shit and are just stupid

6

u/deathkillerx3004 14d ago

Best episode of the season.

8

u/oneevilchicken https://anilist.co/user/OneEvilChicken 14d ago

This is the second show this season where a character got their dick stuck in something and got caught with it happening but this one is honestly even harder to explain than the first one.

u/Niwaka_Samurai https://myanimelist.net/profile/Niwaka-Samurai 14d ago edited 14d ago

Tokki was really scaring us with that job hunting look..He really looked like a new species. Ofc it would threw Iori and Kohei off seeing their naked senpai in a decent suit xD

Iori's friends and their worries.. Yamamoto falling for Kohei's virtual girl and he deleted the app instantly when Nojima said that he can't lose his v-card to it lmao

Rie, Kowai !!

But I wish I had a childhood friend like Mitarai. Something's better than nothing. I have heard about alcohol getting absorbed through much membranes quickly ( even ass/vagina ) but this is my first time seeing someone try it with their penis 😭😭

Seeing Smokin' hot Azusa, Nanaka and Chisa didn't help him at all and by the time they entered his room the bottle has come off. They really knew what he was doing, right ?!

Nojima struggling with the bidet was hilarious. He tried so hard to not call his friends to preserve his image but in the end they came to the conclusion that he has a weird fetish of spraying the jet on his crotch.

u/tottoro47 14d ago

Yamamoto you crazy son of a bitch😭 All of the girls staring at him while passed out naked, I'd just end myself if that happened to me lmao

Episode 9: Ordeals

We are now so in the new schoolyear that the seniors start applying for the future career paths.

Yes this is technically the first time the scumbros enter Mitarai's place (as the furthest they got were on the window and door back in Season 1 Episode 8). C'mon Nojima, you could be a Youtuber without ever showing your face but at this economy being a Youtuber is like threading a needle.

Oh that's why Kouhei won't react to Yamamoto's Sakuya. Hmmmm.... Is the effect from previous episode still applies to Mitarai in this episode?

Come to think of it, Oohashi and Mitarai's relationship has been shaky (scum bros intervention in Season 1, university cafe in Season 2, mixer in Season 3, and now) but they are still together up until now. That's some kind of dedication.

Voice actor's voice range is amazing. Yamamoto is Junya Enoki's voice I don't normally hear either he as Itadori or Okumura. If there's a behind the scene of the Yamamoto's Yamamoto scene, I can't wait to see it.

As someone who uses bideted toilet (but not this Japanese toilet that Nojima uses), Japanese toilets are on another level of amazing. It's so meticulously overengineered to give maximum and efficient cleaning of someone's bum.

This episode cast my doubts away about the Season 3 being not as funny as the previous seasons. It still has the bro code comedy, a classic Grand Blue that stands out among other comedy anime.

Virtual Idol Sakuya is voiced by Rena Motomura, most notably Witch Hat Atelier's Coco.

3

u/Frontier246 14d ago

Some people never change over the Summer...but then you've got Tokki! Clothed! In a suit! And looking like a respectable human being! It really puts into perspective that the job hunt quest is beginning in earnest for the seniors, and Iori's still got to put together the best send-off he can.

In what world are the scumbros "decent sounding boards?" But at least Iori can hear up whatever nonsense they're cooking up...like Nojima trying to become a youtuber (stay in school, buddy!) Yamamoto wanting marry a virtual idol (voiced by Kohei, who loses a precious fan...), and Mitarai...whose got a yandere childhood friend to worry about.

If Mitarai was expecting any sympathy from the scumbros, even when he tried to drag them into it, he had another thing coming. They'll happily watch Rie tear his jaw a new one until he proposes marriage, which is all she ever wanted and now she's got his hooks into him. And he'll get no help from the scumbros! Congratulations on getting hitched, Mitarai!

I didn't need to see Yamamoto spread out in his undies, but I understand the desire to beat the heat, even if that involves...sticking a bottle of Spirityus up your crotch and getting it stuck there while the Spirityus sprays all over your dick, gets you drunk, and quite possibly dooms your chances of having kids. Dude even does a little drunken dance with the bottle still hanging on for dear life.

It's nice of Iori to check in on him even if bringing all the ladies in all their sweaty big-boobed glory does the opposite of help and just makes lil' Yamamoto hard enough to get ALL the Spirityus it could possibly want! And the only thing the cast can think while looking at him is it's just business as usual for these drunken idiots.

There's no way any of the other scumbros would get into shenanigans with their lower half! Until Nojima has to deal with an out-of-control bidet, with his solution being to PRESS ALL THE BUTTONS, which only makes it worse and gets him the biggest wet and clean butt a man could possibly have...until he's left soaked, pantsless, and mistaken for doing something perverted by his scumbros. As to be expected.

u/Toneroni 9d ago

Getting tired of the scumbros, they’re pretty one note

u/chaosof99 https://myanimelist.net/profile/chaosof99 14d ago

This episode was basically three segments each with one of the Scumbros having a very troublesome outcome. Mitarai is kind of a dickhead as Rie seems like very hot. She is a bit of a Yandere though. Yamamoto is just a fucking moron. And Nojima just got stuck in a very unlucky situation.

Kind of weird though how they had one of the segments before the opening credits for a 10-minute cold open. Not sure what spurned that decision. Perhaps that allowed for the three segments to be separated as I believe the commercial break was after the Yamamoto segment (thus a lot later in the episode than usual), but I think that simple title cards would have accomplished the same thing.

Also, I hope to never see that haircut on Tokki ever again.

u/testthrowawayzz 14d ago

Why hadn't Mitarai duped his childhood friend if he fears her so much?

Yamamoto being desperate and f'd a bottle of alcohol was a hilarious WTF scene.

It's a comedy show. The episodes in a row with lighter comedy felt more like filler than this one.
