  I don't know what to think about not knowing if size is pronounced "siez" or "seezay"

  That was really well done, calling back to the earlier chapter. Poor Karasuma has no idea what he did wrong.

    Yeah - the instant that “Are you an M?” came out of his mouth, I started laughing. That was a great callback, and I didn’t see it coming at all.

    And it got me to wondering about that particular sort of humor and what it is and how it works, since the most recent time I laughed that hard was the other day, watching the latest episode of Guild Receptionist, and specifically the moment when Alina is watching a giant boulder slowly settle into the remains of her house.

    There’s just something about that anticipatory moment right after one character says or does something to another, and though they don’t know it, we the audience do know that the proverbial shit is just about to hit the proverbial fan.

      You can only get those moments when the groundwork has been laid to develop the character so that we can properly anticipate their reaction.

      We know how Ichinose is going to react because we spent a whole chapter on it previously. Similarly, with Alina, she had explained over and over how much she values a “normal” life, the house being an integral part of that. When that was threatened previously, she almost killed somebody.

      The additional cherry on top in Alina’s case is that when she goes off on somebody in the anime, we get to hear her VA go full Megumin-explosion shouting at them.
