Lol Moriko worried about what to wear...funny.

Seems like Lilac has a friend that pretends to be the opposite gender in a game too. I kinda felt bad for Moriko since someone knows her true name now in-game. A lot of social commentary this episode as usual.

I think Moriko could improve her fashion style more but I think she's fine for now.

Cashier-san resumed his attack with his introduction.
So he was Kanbe after all, still the way he talked to her was kind of annoying at first; but then he managed to say what she needed to hear.
This is going to get troublesome with Lilac, especially since he called her a kid. I suppose she doesn't have many chances as of right now.

Morioka went to ask to Lily about life advices, exactly like Kanbe asked her not to lol. We also understood why, since he alrady knows Lily is a guy in real life. The conversation got messy fast too.

Converting money spent on rl things to ingame items lol. That's so relatable too..

Next ep they will reveal their ingame identities to each other I guess; hope he won't try to hide it, nor she.

I aways had a hunch that the guy from the store was the green haired dude in Mori's guild lol, that was pretty nice to see how everything played out with him in this episode

Part of me hopes that Sakurai actually confronts Mori about her secret identity but based off of the PV, I feel like he's just gonna keep it to himself >.< She looks so cute too after cleaning up

It was hilarious to see Moriko get nervous over her appearance...she even gave her clothes levels! Kanbe is a really cool guy.

At first I got a little annoyed that Sakurai brushed off the coincidence of Moriko being Hayashi. Then at the end he ends up confirming his own suspicions. Glad they went this route cause I wouldn't like it if they kept playing the secret identity card. They don't have that many episodes left so I'd hate to see it just be the secret phase for the rest of the series.

Moriko looks fantastic with her new hair and get up! I wonder what will happen next. Hopefully they end up doing something though the preview seems like they won't.

Hey! They changed the ED a little at the end! She's smiles in the end with her new appearance!

The cashier was Kanbe all along. That was to be expected. He told Moriko not to ask Lilac for real life advice, but she did anyway because she was having trouble on what to wear. Their conversation was funny. Got to know a bit about Lilac. She has a friend that also plays as a guy online. Moriko converting money to in-game stuff was amusing. She looks pretty in her new look. I'm curious what's going to happen next.

Yuta is just amazing. He self doubted himself like most people actually would do (the coincidences are there surely but he wouldn't believe it until he has proper proof). When one more coincidence pops up and with the knowledge of Koiwai being on a meeting (setting up him up to go over to Morioka eventually since she's gonna be waiting for nothing), he rushes over there to double check and cause he cares about her.

The build-up was just so good at the end. They met!!! And she looks beautiful, that's like a new step for her back into society.

Also Hayashi and Kanbe (knowing their true identities now) have nice chemistry thanks to Kanbe understanding the situation.

Morioka went al out for her evening drinking but it seems the one who invited her didn't show up but the main did.
Now the cashier revealed his character as well which was funny to see.

Anyway now we can speculate about the characters that have not been revealed yet, i am not sure about the big guy i think he is a female character as well.
As for the long haired guy i am thinking of a housewife but we have to wait and see.

I'm more surprised by the fact Kanbe knew all along Lily was a guy irl than him being the cashier (I had that feeling since the last episode, and both have green hair, so...). It was hilarious how the moment when he and Lily were supposed to give advice to hayashi about how to went to the date ended being an argument about preference in women. Lmao.

Sakurai now is (or at least I suppose) sure that Moriko is Hayashi and meets her in time before she left.... Cannot wait for the next episode.

The new Moriko looks very nice.

Ah man, they just had to end it with them two meeting up again IRL! Very nice episode. I liked how the episode focused on Moriko struggling on what to wear for her date as well as her being sad of all the loot boxes she could've bought with the money she spent lmao.

Very excited for the next episode!

I really hope there are no Drama(s) or Love Triangle in this...

Also, it was pretty obvious that Kanbe was Kazuomi Fujimoto from the earlier episodes ...

Somehow Mori-Mori being stood up (intentionally or unintentionally) left a bad taste in my mouth... Thankfully Sakurai seems to be there in time and saves the situation....

Next ep seems to be kind of emotional...

yeah, it felt like a foreshadowing of a later revelation that they knew each other from before when they showed some flashbacks of the other game.

wth is up with that preview for the next episode, I hope this doesn't become netorare-juu omg

Fantastic episode, and the cliffhanger at the end...

I imagined that the konbini guy was Kanbe, and I was right.

So, Sakurai figured out that Moriko is Hayashi, but I don't understand why he went to the date on the basis of that.
Koiwai isn't involved in the game and he hadn't arranged the metting, it was supposed to be the day after.
I'm a bit confused.

I just hope Koiwai doesn't even try to make a move on Morioka -_-". He just lusts for her with that look he gave on ep 4. Sakura-chan should man up and who knows, if fate be so kind that they met on Nanter Saga (The First Game), then Morimori and Sakurai would make a bombshell of a ship.

Well, Kanabe and Lily were "partners" for a time, and since Kanbe is the guild leader he probably got really close to all the guild members. Maybe even close enough for Lily to tell him about her IRL life. That or when Lily started she let it slip through her speech semantics or something.
You have a point here. I can totally see the first option happening, for all tha thing of Kanbe being close to the members of the guild and that.
It still surprised me despite that xD

Jesus. That convenience store guy's name is Fujimoto Kazuomi and I always thought he's the fat guy in their guild, but it turns out he's Kanbe-san. Pffffft. Pretty evident in the hair color, but jeez too obvious of a choice, so I thought he was the fat guy. Haha. And Kazuomi aka Kanbe-san knows that Lily is a guy irl. A lot of reveal this episode, maaan. So kind of him not telling anyone that Hayashi is a girl irl.

Sakurai is still trying to figure out if Moriko is Hayashi. Lmfao.

Moriko ended up cutting her hair medium length. And her converting money into amount of loot boxes she can get from it instead of spending it on other things. Hahaha. Moriko making herself beautiful, putting makeup on, buying clothes and such. Awww.

It turns out Moriko got the day wrong from Koiwai for their drink, so Sakurai almost got the pieces altogether, and he had to go to Moriko and Koiwai's meeting place to see if Moriko is there just like she said as Hayashi in the game that she'll be having a "drinking game" with someone the next day. And jeez he saw her there. AND OHMYGOD MORIKO'S NEW HAIR. It fits her, tbh, but I prefer her long hair. It makes her character unique, tbh, and it makes her like a generic character now, and not my grown-up Tomoko from WataMote anymore now. Hahaha. But it made her more beautiful, so I'm happy for her. Huehue.

Please don't turn into some kind of lame rom-com. Please don't turn into some kind of lame rom-com. Please don't turn into some kind of lame rom-com. Please don't turn into some kind of lame rom-com. Please don't turn into some kind of lame rom-com. Please don't turn into some kind of lame rom-com.

So, I guess Sakurai already knows that yeah Hayashi is Moriko. If not then idk anymore. Lmfao.

Good episode. Loved it.

oh no....................... I'm not a fan of her new hair......... fucking Kanbe ruined everything

I mean it's still Mori so at the end of the day it doesn't matter cause she can grow it back, but hair growing back never happens in anime so I guess were stuck will the old lady bob-cut so many chicks get in later age cause they don't have the will to take care of their hair. shame.

anyway, at least things are still progressing, 5 more episodes and 1 special to go, I like the progress, but we are quickly getting towards a fine line of "Romantic payoff" and a "Gamers ending". We can't keep playing the oblivious love games like the preview for next episode seems to have.. there's not a lot of time left for anything we get to be meaningful if it doesn't happen soon.

I thought the convenie guy was actually the fat guy from the game but then we know that he's married so it was impossible. However I wasn't expecting him to be Kanbe-san!

Morioka-chan got pretty for sure. I still didn't understand how she mistook the day of the date though.

I really hope there will be more online gaming scenes because that's what makes this anime interesting and I really don't want it to turn into a regular romcom anime.

Wow, so Kanbe/the store clerks' only purpose was to maintain confusion between Moriko and Sakurai... a literal walking and talking plot contrivance.

I don't know about this show. I have the same issues with it that I did for Gamers, which is surprising considering the characters are supposed to be mature adults.

Well, there are still 5 episodes to go so it might get better. Right now though, nothing about it has struck me as interesting or even good for that matter.

Seems like the only possibility is that Moriko actually got the dates mixed up, and it just happened to work out that Sakurai would check on her to try to uncover her identity as Hayashi. Strange that she would mix such a thing up, but adorable episode nonetheless.

That's the main confusion I have, maybe it was a sub problem. The next episode preview seems like there's gonna be triangle bullshit which will leave less time for the main pairing to enjoy each other, yet from what I understand of the episode, Koiwai scheduled the date for when he'd be out of town and got Moriko's number on Yuuta's phone... meaning if she wanted to know where he was she would call Yuuta's phone thinking it was Koiwai's and the two would get together... it's only because of Mori's own awkwardness that she didn't call. I guess I'm just looking for a confirmation.

title this Episode Secret Triangle wasnt about Triangle Love or something
But Secret Between Kanbe-Hayashi(know each other IRL) and Kanbe-Lily(know about Lily actually man)

next episode look like stray bullet from Koiwai get a hit
he want set up for Sakurai and Morioka to meet
but Morioka become more close to Koiwai, not for Sakurai(???)

That's not possible because Moriko should've had Yuuta's number already since he gave it to her at the hospital. From the looks of it in the preview, it seem that Kowai will arrive at the scene before Yuuta could say/do anything and went on with the "date".

Also, the way Kowai noticed those huge boobies first tells a lot about his character.

Morikos new hairstyle looks good on her,really like it, the old one wasn't bad either,tho.

Overall it was a good episode, the part about finding the right style for going out was so funny.

It ended with Morikos and Sakurais meeting each other, the build up to this point was pretty nice. Looking forward to what will happen next,but since this show is only halfway in there has to be some trouble in store.

Girl, that hair is so not medium length!
Ofc I prefer the long haired, dishevelled look but the short hair is cute too. Makes her look pretty mature.

Also, I knew convenience store guy was Kanbe!

Sakurai was in denial, but his suspicions about Hayashi being Moriko were finally confirmed...I wonder if he's gonna say something. Probably not lol
