Kunon the Sorcerer Can See: Episode 3 Review – Where Magic Meets Heart (and a Side of Pee Jokes)
Let’s cut to the chase: If you’re here for a show that’s equal parts “how did they come up with that?” and “aww, that’s actually sweet,” Kunon the Sorcerer Can See Episode 3 delivers. This isn’t your gritty, world-ending fantasy—it’s the cozy, underdog story of a blind kid who’s turning water magic into his superpower, one glowing cat and accidental bully humiliation at a time. And yeah, the kid’s low-key OP, but in the best way possible.
First, let’s get the basics straight (thanks, quick Google check): This anime’s from Platinum Vision and Kadokawa, the same crew that brought you Love Stage!! and Servamp. So they know their way around character-driven stories with a dash of whimsy. Episode 3 dropped in January 2026 (wait, future? No, wait—probably a typo, but let’s roll with it), and it’s been trending on MyAnimeList for one big reason: Kunon’s just so gosh-darn likable.
The premise? Kunon was born blind, but he’s not letting that stop him. He’s obsessed with using water magic to create new eyes, and after five months of training, he’s already outshined his teacher. Now, in Episode 3, he’s at magic school—because where else do OP kids go? But here’s the thing: He’s not just “good” at magic. He’s innovative. Remember how he can sense colors with water? That’s not just a party trick. In this episode, he uses that same magic to whip up a glowing cat companion (yes, a cat) and even a handy little tool to help his buddy pass an exam. Fans on MAL are screaming about that cat—“Conjuring a whole cat? Iconic,” one user wrote. And honestly? They’re right. It’s the kind of small, creative win that makes you grin.
But let’s talk about the scene everyone’s meme-ing: the bully takedown. You know the one—the “peepee pants prince” incident. (I’m not making that up.) Kunon’s rival, some stuck-up noble kid, tries to humiliate him by challenging him to a magic duel. Bad move. Kunon doesn’t just beat him—he uses water magic to… well, let’s say the rival’s fancy uniform got a little wet in a very embarrassing way. The internet’s losing it over this: “Mildly amusing, funny way to get rid of a bully,” a fan laughed on MAL. “I hope everyone starts calling him peepee pants prince LOL.” It’s silly, it’s childish, and it works because it’s so Kunon. He’s not trying to be cool—he’s just solving problems with the only tool he has: water.
Now, let’s get real for a sec. This show isn’t perfect. Some fans are side-eyeing the parents—“Isolate your kid then punish him for something that was completely accidental? What kind of jerks are these?” one user ranted. Fair point. The parents are… not great. But here’s the twist: Their awfulness makes Kunon’s growth feel more earned. He’s not relying on anyone but himself and his magic. And his teacher? Let’s just say she’s got “crappy mentor” vibes. “I got a good laugh when the magic teacher said she had nothing left to teach him just because he got really good with the most basic possible water spell,” another fan joked. Yeah, that scene was ridiculous—but it’s also how the show sets Kunon up as the underdog who’s breaking all the rules.
But let’s not forget the heart of the episode: Kunon’s friendship with his classmates. There’s this quiet moment where he uses his water magic to help a friend who’s struggling with a spell. He doesn’t show off—he just says, “Let me try.” And when it works? The friend’s face lights up. It’s these small, human moments that make the show feel special. Fans are loving the supporting cast too: “I like most of the supporting cast so far,” one user noted. “Got the girl, got the rival, got the brother/suffering friend. Don’t forget the exasperated teacher.” It’s classic magic school tropes, but with a Kunon-shaped twist.
Oh, and let’s talk about Iko—the maid. If you’re not obsessed with her yet, you will be. “So far Iko the maid is carrying this show,” a fan declared. She’s Kunon’s rock: sarcastic, loyal, and the only one who really gets him. When he’s overthinking his magic, she’s there to say, “Quit being a dork and just do it.” She’s the comic relief we all need, and her dynamic with Kunon is the glue holding this episode together.
So, where does the show go from here? Kunon’s only at the school to take five exams, so Episode 3 feels like a setup for bigger things. Will he finally create those eyes? Will the “peepee pants prince” get revenge? Will we ever learn more about the magic system? (Fans are begging for that, by the way: “Going into some detail on the magic system would have been nice,” one user sighed.) But honestly? I don’t care if the magic system is vague. I’m here for Kunon’s journey. He’s a kid who’s turning a disability into a superpower, and that’s inspiring.
In the end, Kunon the Sorcerer Can See Episode 3 is like a warm hug with a side of chaos. It’s not going to change your life, but it’ll make you smile. It’s got OP magic, silly jokes, and a heart that beats loud and clear. If you’re tired of dark, edgy anime, this is your escape. Just don’t forget to bring a towel—you never know when Kunon’s water magic might… backfire (wink).
Final thought from a fan that sums it up best: “What an odd little child he’s become…” Odd? Yes. Awesome? Absolutely. Can’t wait for Episode 4.
