I agree with your criticism on the comedic timing in the show, however the joke in this one went over your head because you aren’t familiar with enough anime. That scene was them referencing a ton of classic moves in anime that you haven’t watched yet: naruto, yu yu hakasho, dbz, bleach, etc.

I think my favorite part while rewatching this is noticing small details and references to later stuff. I love how authors put in hidden stuff like that for second watchthroughs

The comedy scene is a reference to other classic shonen heroes like Goku from dragon ball or Naruto, usually they learn energy projection techniques and Yuji was disappointed not to be able to do like them because he hoped that this energy system would work the same, it speaks to older generations of anime fans I think

BTW I don't know if you already know this but after finishing the first season you should watch the movie before you start season 2

yeah i think the manga for this has really great comedy but it just doesnt translate well to the anime as it feels really drawn out at times
