| Heh, a dodgeball game featuring Anya's class and of course, Damian has to be there. Knowing someone with his pride, he's not going to hold back against anyone. RIP Damian's MVP this episode and, RIP Anya's shot. Maybe next time. This was one of the most emotional based dodgeball games I've ever seen. |

| Straight up starting an episode with such elegance, ah couldn’t have asked for anything better. Also they say training is fun, and well why it couldn’t be when you have someone like Yor giving those lessons( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). Hey no way, just no way you can convince me mister Uncle-with-glasses too is a part of their class, like he’s looking like some 18 something for god sake. And yes this battle of dodgeball definitely triggered some flashbacks from what we had in Greed island back then lol. Still too bad Anya’s team couldn’t get past this big hurdle and lost. Also just one chapter this time? Though they did go all-out animating this one. |
| snif snif it was an amazing episode as always, I am also first comment Edit: nevermind |
| Lol Mr. Elegance is jogging and respect the statue and it's legacy, also tea is truly an elegant drink than a cup of coffee, Mr. Elegance is spitting. The background music they used is so reminiscent of any elite school series, also the timetable shown is very deja vu looking too. Mama Yor is so good at sports and meditations while Anya, well she's working on it. Maybe a minor thing but I wish they could've zoomed out straight showing a line of two teams a bit more quicker but the whole dodgeball segment was really unexpected with the whole take on it's direction, Anya with her obvious telepathy can read someone's movement too easily so she can dodge but she can't even play dodgeball on her own, how awful for her and her teammates ig but anyways when Damian protects Anya from getting hit, that was cute. Also was this Wit adapting today's episode? 2 more episodes :( |
| Anya really went through a shounen training arc to prepare for the dodgeball match lol. Bruh, Billy is 6 years old but looks like he has a family and a whole ass 9-5, dude built like part 3 Jotaro 💀 This was easily the best episode so far, they made the dodgeball match so extra and dramatic for no reason. This was hilarious af and I loved the exaggerated "attacks" throughout the game (also DBZ reference from Damian and his bootlicker friends? lmao) |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
| Dude really just yelled "Die" in a dodgeball game I know age in anime is usually a topic that usually brings some interesting discussions when comparing said age to how the character looks..but there is no way Billy is the same age as all the other kids. |
 |
| Intense dodgeball match.Very good episode. |
 |
| The big man 👊😎 |
 |
| Was this really an elementary class dodgeball? LMAO WTF is that Billy?? 😲 Maybe, he is mutant. lol |
真姫ちゃん！ 何が好き？ トマト よりも あ･な･た♡  |
| still dont know how they keep nailing each episode perfectly, this is the most fun I've had watching a show in a long time |
 |
| Very extraordinary adaptation for this episode |
 |
| Not gonna lie, Bill Watkin's voice and this episode in entirety, caught me off guard |
| no freaking way that kid was SIX? This giving me Flashbacks Greed Island HxH, if you know what i mean. Planet Namek... that was Amazing. Really Intense Dodgeball match and absolutely hilarious episode. My stomach is hurt from laughing, please help.. lol |

| This episode was pure shonen, training at sunset, a kid that looks like was fed with steroids, dramatic deaths, power enough to Becky feel. An elegant episode, certainly. |
 |
| For a moment, I thought Bill was Loid in disguise until it showed him training. Damian seems like a good kid after all. And as expected from Anya, she never lets us down. |
| What a pleasant and elegant opening scene to see the personification of elegance jogging on a bright Sunday(?) morning. Is that the sport where you hit and bury your opponent with a ball? I wonder if she's ever genuinely done that while carrying out a contract. Emile and Yuwen, thine sacrifices shalt never be forgotten, for as long as a carrot lasts fresh. |
 |
| reminds me of gon playing a dodgeball games with razor |
 |
| bill owned this ep lol(or atleast the game) |
| Life sucks |
| I remember I don't really enjoy this chapter in the manga and yeah this time is no different in animated format. The original scenes, some were amusing but as a whole the episode was cringe. |
 |
| Just like all SPYxFAM episodes, the 23 minutes were over before I realized what was happening, I love these so much! Damian and Anya are getting on well with each other and they're adorable. The new kid, Bill surprised me with his very adult VA in a 6 year old body. |

| Best dodgeball game I've ever seen lol Damian protects anya only for her shot to be you know...rip at least it wasn't for a stella It was an enjoyable episode as always |
 |
| Anya trained super hard for the dodgeball battle Which was great to see but there is no way that bill is a 6 year old kid |
| hahaha very entertaining episode especially anya and yor |

| Another great episode |
| Great episode, there were a lot of things added that wasn't on the manga again, the directing was amazing as always. |
 |
| they really need to stop making 5 minute episodes, its really short |
 |
| If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball! That was the most intense dodgeball game I’ve seen in a long time. The training arc was even funnier, did Yor part a fucking sea with a ball lmao? Bill is the biggest 3rd grader I’ve ever seen. r/hellofellowkids material. Too bad all that ended up being for nothing since no Stella lmao. Damian saving anya was hype as hell for no reason lmao  |

| Headmaster Henderson is still ELEGANCE, jogging around Eden College in his late age, swearing loyalty and with all that swag to cultivate children with good behaviour. And it all starts with the interclass dodgeball tournament...a chance to earn a Stella for being the MVP, even if it's a rumor. And man, Yor trained Anya like her life depends on it. Love the anime-original content of Yor and Anya training ruthlessly, preparing for the actual day itself in school. And this in turn, reveals a bit of Damian's harsh family dynamic for his father to notice him. Commence The Great Dodgeball Plan, and Anya and Damian's Class 3's Cecilia Hall against Class 4's Wald Hall, and they do have some strongholds like 6-year-old "Bazooka" Bill Watkins, whom is a serious military clad with utmost precision birth from his military family. Even with all of Damian's plans, it's still given that they'll be foiled, and Emile is a true MVP as a shield. Of course, how would Bill mamage to outwit the Esper Anya, she embodies elegance. But at the lowest point, Anya about to gp down, and Damian literally going Super Saiyan to shield her, WHAT A CHAD. All that's left is Anya to hold Class 3's fortress, and her ultimate power that transcends the stars...fails LOLS. But yeah, you earn a Tonitrus Bolt for shouting "Die", that's a thing. As for earning a Stella, try harder next time somewhere else... |
 |
| Nice routine to start the day with. Looks like Damien's got a complex about his own place when compared to his esteemed bro. Yor got way to into training and forgot the most important thing being that Anya is still a kid. Still her training sure was extensive. For a elementary kid Bills looks way much older than his age would suggest. But Anya's skill proved to be the perfect counter to his immense strength. Though Anya's killer ability turned out to be a misfire that game was damm entertaining. |

| Funny how MAPPA animated a casual dodgeball game better, than what other studios did in some shounen fights LMAO (I won't point on anything, that's MAPPA for you) Cool episode (Edited: it was not MAPPA, but still accurate LMAO) |

| Lmao I feel like I knew this episode would feature a dodgeball game from last weeks preview (or maybe I'm going crazy idk) but this blew my expectations away. The most over dramatic shounen bullshit ever but I loved every bit of how it played into the comedy and buildup. That absolute brick shithouse of a kindergartener is terrifying. And my god the hilarious buildup and failure of Anya's final throw. I really thought she was gonna do something awesome. |
| I love the anime original added scenes especially of Ewen and Emile. They were hilarious |
