Nice to see it start off with a new episode. And a very similar idea to the beginning of the previous season, although not quite as perfect. Still great stuff, and loads of fun with all the meta humor and references.

Great, what we wanted to do is just delayed in the end. I hope at least 25% of the episodes will be new one.

Yeah, I'm even more curious to see how they're going to mix in the old episodes, considering how they're starting this season off.

Looks like others figured out that Kintoki isn't their friend.
Gin vs Kin! A truly energetic battle.
The second part was about Mantama.
Here we go again with Kintoki.
This looked like a twisted otome visual novel.

Oh god, that troll of a second half was so brilliant. Great stuff all around. So we're back to normal. No preview. I hope that doesn't mean they're going to the reruns now, but after four episodes of new stuff, I had already assumed they would at this point.

Well, since the first (and probably following DVDs) has 4 episodes, I don't think there will be a DVD with no new episodes at least.

Well, it looks like my guess was wrong, unfortunately. There is no way to know how may reruns we will have before a new episode.

Yep, it's a shame. Well we knew most of it would be reruns, so to get four new ones to start it off was better than I expected.

In March there will be a DVD that will be released in Japan with 3 episodes, the same will happen in April. Does that mean we will have an arc of 6 new episodes in a row soon? I sure hope so.
