Which one is the actual word? I see different ones being used each time I watch.

You can explicitly see "Vanishment" in the Season 2 ED, so I'm going with that.

It's Engrish, so she probably meant "Banish this world"

Banish. It sounds more like a command than "vanish".
Shoot first, think never.

It was banishment in the first season but now it's vanishment. The latter isn't even a word!

It definitely started out as banishment, but S2 ed...

Punishment, W0t?

Everyone assumed it was Banishment (because it makes the most sense grammatically), but according to the S2 ED it's Vanishment. That's Engrish for you.

Once I saw it was supposed to be Vanishment instead of Banishment, I just assumed that it's supposed to be a joke term their 8th grader syndrome made up.

"Vanishment This World!" is the official term for Rikka' catchphrase. it even shows up as the name of the second season's ED.

The fansubbers merely mistook it for Banishment in S1, because in Japanese, the v and b are pretty much the same letter/sound, just like l and r are.

It makes sense, as Rikka wants the real world to disappear (vanish) in favor of the world she supposedly sees through her Tyrants Eye.

"Vanishment" as it appears in the ending like that.
