Recap of the previous episode
The vast majority of The Irregular at Magic High School season 3 episode 2 was focused on the return of the Shiba siblings to the academy, although the introduction showed a flashback of them facing the Yotsuba clan, but the rest of said episode didn't explore this. However, most fans of the first two seasons would be glad to see the likes of Mayumi, Erika, and many more returning.
It is also worth pointing out that Mayumi's return was highly celebrated by the fandom, especially considering that she graduated from the academy and is now a college student, so a lot of fans didn't know if she was still going to be present in the series. It was also important to introduce her two younger twin sisters, Kasumi and Izumi, who had two very distinct personalities and had strong opinions of the Shiba siblings.
While the bulk of the episode focused on the Shiba siblings, the biggest moment for a lot of people was the action scene at the end where the Koruba twins showed up.
What to expect from The Irregular at Magic High School season 3 episode 2?

The Shiba siblings are also going to have a lot of focus on their connections, which is probably going to be a welcome decision for the fandom. The cliffhanger of the Koruba twins is perhaps going to be addressed as well.
