| Magic jewels, exploration, events...we got the whole package of RPG elements. Still, I'm glad the show is back because we're also getting a lot of Maple and her friends. We got a very RPG heavy episode that also included tamed monsters and fluffy moments. |
 |
| Yay! They are back! I missed Maple and her friends so much. BOFURI has some of the most beautiful looking places I have ever seen in any anime. Maple and Sally had such a wonderful time together. :) Funny looking creatures. It was nice when Syrup and Oboro evolved. Cute new forms. Sally, Oboro, Maple, and Syrup are so cute together. <3 @smoltulip Thank you! :) |

| Well it has been a few weeks but after the 3 year wait between first and second season it wasn't that bad. Anyway the pets of the girls got buff and the girls had a lot of fun obtaining that buff even if that last monster seemed like a lot of trouble. The question now is how will the girls perform at the next event. |
| Was quite excited to see what was beyond the event and since Syrup was so excited to get that gem knew it was going to about the pets and I'm glad it was about them. Syrup and Oboro looks even cuter after evolving. |
 |
| Nice to see the series back after corvid wrecked things again. Given how long Sally's been with her pet Frederica had no chance. I think its also nice that the pets here actually do help their owners rather than just being gimmicks. Being able to explore without limit though is one of the best joys of any MMO. Catching a free ride from sheep though is a first. Only Maple can solo a boss in that style. The trial guardians that they faced though sure had some nice variety to them though. Quite the pet sanctuary they ended up finding though. But its good to see their pets gain a powerup just as their partners had. Overall a fun ep that while showing well just how much Maple and Sally had grown in ability also did well to expand upon the pets as well. Curious though on what the upcoming event is going to be like. |

| After a 2-week delay, Bofuri's back to more goodness, starting with Sally and Frederica's bout...to introduce her chick familiar Nayuta. The 8th event, first starting individually for the prelims, both Maple and Sally are back like their old times of just goofing around and having fun. But finding a level map within the ocean, and that's a hint for sure that Kanade has read up about these ruins, other than finding crystals, 3 of which acts as a key to another place by fighting strong bosses which show their progress. While Sally is just as capable, Maple is just the definition of OP prowess. Syrup and Oboro sure got the evolution that changes them aesthetically after being so long together with their masters, and of course, the game devs are not happy that they have to plan as much, thanks to Maple. Oh well, onto the next event! |

I love when you leave screenshots with your comments! These are so great and the backgrounds really were so beautiful this episode~ Sally completely went in for the kill against Frederica, it was so funny watching her just get completely stun-locked, aha. Also, it's just nice to have Bofuri back, and I loved that the focus was on exploring, this time. It felt like we were getting back to what really makes the show fun in the first place. Evolved Syrup and Oboro are too cute! I'm looking forward to the new event and seeing how these evolutions make Maple and Sally even more OP affect things. |

| Good to see this show back. Sally too OP, that literally ended by the time Maple finished waving xD. Followed by the little Cozy little outing between Sally and Maple. Got to feel for the game mods, it’s not just the two but the other major guilds showing off their strengths too. |

| Maple's luck being what it is, what started as a nice relaxing date, ended with boss fights and pet upgrades. |
 |
| As long as the turtle does its Tur..Tle.. beam attack I'm all in on this show. I do like turtles. Especially ones which shoot massive beem attacks in the cutest of manner. But at the moment this season is feeling like a trainer arc on not a long flow show. First season had plot leading upto guild fight, but I don't feel any end game here. Heck not even the game mods seem to have an endgame. They just keep throwing more and more character advancements at us and new skills, without even understanding what they creating (which might be the point) Tur-tle  |

Maple and Sally had such a wonderful time together. :) @smoltulip Thank you! :) Kaede Hondo is always a great seiyuu but when she performs as Maple for me is at her top level, is a role so perfectly fitted for her, I adore Ruriko Noguchi too (Sally's seiyuu). |
| I don't recall maple having dat green outfit. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| It's nice how casually Frederica can just stroll in to Maple Tree nowadays and challenge Sally to a duel yet again. I think those two are a good definition of BFF Frenemies lol And I wasn't expecting Syrup and Oboro to evolve; it took me a while to notice what changed with Oboro though, but they both looked bigger after enjoying the special water in that secret place lol |
       |
| Without any real story line to follow, I reached my limit, sorry Maple. |

| Felt like the animation quality fell off this episode. And why did Maple's outfit change mid-battle to a green smock? And nothing said about it changing back. |
| Haha so this show is now officialy pokemon! On a more serious note, it was a nice little episode for the return of the show, centered on Maple and Sally, with some nice comedic moments here and there (like Maple always managing to put herself in trouble or the short "fight" of Sally versus Frederica). |
| Pokemon, in my Bofuri!? Hell yeah! ^_^ Anyways, it's excellent to have Bofuri airing again after its two-week break due to covid, so hopefully there won't be anymore delays. The episode itself was pretty chill, with Maple and Sally having fun in the open plains and playing around in their casual outfits always putting a smile on my face. Thanks to their fun together, they did come across a pond which had a gem hidden inside and, with extra information found via Sally's deep dive into the ocean and from Kanade's knowledge, the duo set off to find the other two gems. The second half of the episode had some solid fights and nice animation to boot, which did make up for the slightly weaker animation of the first half. With those fights done and the gems acquired, they went into a pretty area filled with friendly monsters, where a sacred-looking pond was where both Syrup and Oboro got their evolutions and both look great. It seems like a combination of battle experience and a high bond level is needed for this to happen, hence why the other members of the guild were unable to do the same. Still, seeing the pretty smiles from Maple and Sally towards their respective companion was well worth it, I'd say. =) |
Rasco said: I don't recall maple having dat green outfit. Ghost Girl's Clothes, acquired at the start of episode 3 of this season. |
| |
| Episode totally not inspired by Pokemon. Anyways, can't wait for Syrup and Oboro to evolve into Venusaur and Delphox respectively. |
| Bofuri is finally back after a little delay!! Frederica and Sally have another duel but before she could even say one attack, Sally is rushing all over her and the fight ends quick. Frederica's familiar is not what I expected it to be and neither did Sally, expecting some type of scary monster but it was just a cute bird. The 8th event is a individual event just like the first one in season one. Both Sally and Maple go on a little adventure defeating some bosses with ease along the way. Maple really just spammed all her moves on the first bird boss, I felt sorry for it lol. At the end after finding all 3 keys (crystals) they get taken to a place where there are a lot of small friendly monsters messing around, some looked kinda goofy. But the 2 get to a small pond and Syrup and Oboro then actually end up evolving now both with new distinct features with Syrup sort of resembling bulbasaur from pokemon. The devs are now hard at work on the next event, lets see how everyone fares next episode!! |
 |
| Finally it's back! Very great fight scene from them, and the new event is about to begin. |
 |
| yes the backgrounds looks very brilliant and not oversaturated! this will look stunning when viewing on those ultra expensive OLED TV screens! 5/5. |
 |
| The next event was just another quest in which Maple and Sally did their thing and unlocked the secret area with those crystal keys. And what awaits them is evolution for their animals. But no, Syrup didn't evolve into a Torterra or Oboro into a Ninetales. They just look a bit different and they just unlocked another amazing ability. Maybe someday they will get there, but for now they are still the same size as before. Can't wait to see what these familiars are now capable of doing. |
| Looks like the devs fucked up once again. Another cute adventure-filled episode. Their pokemon got evolved. Nice. |

| Frederica is back for another duel, and this time, she has a familiar (too bad she doesn't know that she can't beat Sally since Sally has a 1 daily anti death thing lol) i would totally laugh if the pet was a scary one that made Sally pass out, but i don't think she wants to make Sally mad lols the fight had not even started, but Sally went all out and beat frederica in like 2 seconds, she really was worried about the "cute" familiar back to the normal game, Maple asked Frederica to show her familiar, and Sally crawled , fearing what could be coming ... but it was just a cute little bird Kinomoto Sakura is back to announce the next event, divided into 2 rounds, the 1st one, a solo mode where everyone has to survive and kill monsters while alone, with rewards depending on points Frederica wanted to keep fighting, but Payne told her to hide her skills until the next tournament, which makes sense she just left, while the 2 tried to guess what the bird can do Maple wants to go sightseeing, so Sally showed off her horse, which unlike monsters, it's considered a vehicle, so it's not included in the familiar limit tbh, with those clothes, i totally thought they were in real life lol well, there's no bad monsters in there, so it's the perfect place to relax lol at Maple getting attacked by those flying star squirrels, also nice song lol is this the beach episode? :v they somehow got carried by the sheeps , and they started acellerating until they found water next they hit Maple inside the lake, and with that, she found a white gem, 1 of 3 keys needed for some kind of gate Sally then went underwater and found a big tablet with the 7th floor map Kanade, who read every book in the library, knew the answer to what the map marks could mean the twins have no chance at beating Kanade at games lol she is too smart Maple and Sally went out again, found a bird monster that they thought before (2nd event) and Maple made sure to use all 10+ of her skills till the monster explode lol geez this girl with that, they found another key, 1 more to go now to look for the 3rd stone... a place with strong winds, and big rocks flying and hitting Maple LOL good thing she has high defense, or she would be back at the starting point there's actually a strange monster in there who is controling the rocks... and before Maple could get ready to fight, she was blown away again LOL Sally has no time to take care of Maple, and she went ahead to fight the monster alone, doesn't matter if the monster is strong if she can just outspeed it she almost got hit by a big one but Maple saved her just in time Maple now with her strange dress and with her cannon working like a long blade, she just attacked randomly and destroyed everything in sight and so they got the 3rd stone, and with that they went straight to the gate... which teleported them to some funny place where monsters just play around with each other following Oboro to the little water pound... and so the 2 pets turned gold and evolved, Oboro got a 2nd tail and some red marks, while Syrup got a flower and horns(?), and both got bigger the others tried to evolve theirs as well but they couldn't find the quests, probably because they need to level up their affection first hearing the developers talk about how the higer ranked players always get rare stuff is funny... they also want to prepare the next event, with many strong monsters LOL "we shouldn't make the inside of a monster randomly, Maple won't hesitate to jump inside" HAHAHAHAHAHAHA |
favorite "new girls" from fall <3 (lol i only watched these) ... click sig for older seasons  |
| Syrup Evolved Into Venosaur. LOOOOOL |
| Nothing Written Here But Us Anime Bunnies *boing boing boing* |
| Sally went all serious in PVP with Frederica. Maple and Sally have a good time. It's fair for Maple and Sally's tame monsters to evolve since everyone gets to tame a monster in this level. |
 |
| Sally: i feer sry for anyone who has to take her on in pvp ME: LMAO |
Tsuyo_Mika said: that's cause she was afraid that Federica has some ghostly pet so she wanted to finish her off before she can summon it lolSally went all serious in PVP with Frederica. |
| Syrup and Oboro evolved? Also in the 'dev room' in the middle of the room there's this white pillar that had a symbol awfully similar to that of a Pokeball lel |
| This episode felt kinda unimportant, but maybe those abilities for Syrup and Oboro will come in handy in the next event. |
| Sally really mixed up Frederica! The reaction turned out to be overkill when her pet was just a baby chicken! Oh well, fast battles are to be expected when facing a speedy swordsman. I'm glad they brought back the insert song from season 1 with Sally and Maple exploring for those crystals. It was a well sought task as they got rewarded with a pet evolution!!! It's going to be really interesting seeing what Oboro and Syrup can do now. |
