284 likesSaga of Tanya the Evil II Episode 3: Tanya's By-the-Book Airstrike — What Japan Said
On Episode 3 of Saga of Tanya the Evil II, Tanya orders an artillery strike on a suspected religious building only after an allied Ildoan officer confirms, on the record, that it carries no official markings — and the Japanese reaction clip built around that scene drew 123 comments and 1,121 likes on the reaction channel Anikoko (あにここ!), with the single most-liked comment landing at 284 likes. The comment section's real argument wasn't about the bombardment itself, but about who ends up looking bad: several top comments pointed out that it's Tanya's own ally, not the treaty-violating enemy faction, who's rattled by her icy legal precision, while others split over whether her rule-following makes her clever or exactly the scary part. By the closing comments, one line summed up the whole irony of the episode — and it wasn't the ally who came out looking naive.
