A lot of preparations are made for the school festival. Mitsumi takes a lot of responsibility on her.

Shima got kinda forced to play in the musical since the whole class stared at him lol. Chris is a gigachad though. Those bags under Mitsumi's eyes are getting more worse but she takes on more jobs but she doesn't realize how draining that is. Mitsumi even trips almost but Shima catches her. She fell asleep so she didn't get time to watch the video that she promised to watch and now the 2 are badmouthing her for god sake. Some backstory to Shima's past. Mitsumi feels like she's selfish, girl you are not. Shima is there to lighten up her day though with a dance. Mitsumi is all fired up. Mitsumi reached out again to the girls and now they are finally being nice to her. All ends well.

It pains me seeing Mitsumi struggling but overcoming those struggles makes me smile. She's awesome, and Shima knows it.

One thing Shima confirmed this episode is that Mitsumi can never stay down, she can just move forward and on.
I guess Shima at least at this point, has decided he can have a little more fun in his high school life

I truly hope that Shima will walk out of the shadow and into the light where it is shining brightly on Mitsumi.

Beautiful episode, Shima is worried that Mitsumi will end up like he did as a child, always running, tripping, and getting hurt. But I think Mitsumi has proved to him many times that she is able to always get back up and deep down he knew that already. Man this show is so good

Mitsumi is too pure to be on Politics.. those 2 girls saying something against her were so mean.. but i really like that she sees the positive side on everything.

I have a really bad feeling that girl from Shima's past is going to show up and throw some sort of spanner in the works 😵‍💫 I think her sole purpose in this show is to add that doom and gloom to his life whenever the opportunity presents itself.

I want to be like Mitsumi. The way she said the positive thing about always falling flat on your face is that you get better at dusting yourself off is a very good lesson.

Also loved the cute moment between Shima and Mitsumi <3. They are so amazing together ♥

Oh man that lil singing sequence with Shima and Mitsumi was so adorable. Mitsumi's little giggle as Shina helps her to her feet. All the strengths Shima see's in Mitsumi are exactly his weaknesses. They're so perfect for eachother.

In her efforts to be helpful to everyone Mitsumi bites off more than she can chew and burns out, that's something most of us learned the hard way at some point in life. At some points we need to learn to say reject or withhold our efforts out of consideration for everyone involved, ourselves included. It's better to leave some things to others instead of trying to do it all on our own. It effects our health for one and it's not good to go against our words or give half assed jobs.

Shima also displayed more of his people pleaser traits. In the past he acted to make his mother happy, and now he's acting because everyone else wanted him to, despite him not wanting to do it. His male friend tried to lightly address it without trying to pry or seem overbearing, but Shima basically tells him he'll just put up with it. He may eventually blow up or perhaps Mitsumi will help him in some way where it can be avoided.

As usual this show does it thing of showcasing everyday issues in a realistic fashion. Issues like the ones mentioned before can't be solved overnight and will take effort to overcome. It will be nice to see both Shima and Mitsumi (the rest of the friend group too) do this

I honestly find the relationship between Iwakura and Shima to be the most refreshing I've seen in romance school life shows like this. It's built so much on a solid friendship that honestly even if the story didn't have them fall in love, it would be just as lovely.

(this is my first time writing something here so Idk how it goes, I'll talk about stuff that happens in the episode, does it need a spoiler alert?) I have reread the chapters this episode adapted 5 times already, somehow seeing it animated multiplied my love for it, and I didn't even know this was possible
Them actually singing instead of just reading the dialogue of them singing is "cringier" yet so much cuter (and it was already cute in the original!) like you know how Mitsumi feels embarrassed but in a good way at that moment? Same! I just thought it was idk more immersive?? I love Skip to loafer I literally teared up watching this episode (out of happiness because I love them too much)

I'm glad Mukai and Mitsumi noticed Shima's discomfort after hearing Chris concern and how he believed people will notice and see that he's not honest, hopefully those two will be able to help him out if something like that eventually happens.

I thought it was interesting how Shima wanted Mitsumi to not be tarnished by the larger number of connections the city life brings, I didn't think we'd see those kinds of thoughts from him just yet.

Love how we got to see Shima help Mitsumi in this episode! Everyone's making preparations for the school festival, with Mitsumi overworking herself and Shima working on the play. But it looks like it'll all come crashing down in the next episode now that, I assume, his mother knows he'll be in a play. I get the feeling that model will hear about this too. Man I hope not lol I hated her

Shima's singing was impressive, showcasing his pleasant voice and evident enjoyment. Mika finds herself caught in a dilemma. On one hand, she desires the role of Shima's female lead, acknowledging his acting prowess and her attraction to him. On the other hand, she genuinely cares about Mitsumi and wishes to shield her from heartache. Aware of Mitsumi's affection for Shima, Mika avoids being the cause of her pain. The way Shima chose to uplift Mitsumi was truly endearing. Instead of simply offering words of encouragement, he serenaded her with a heartfelt song. This gesture reveals his genuine affection and his ability to bring a smile to Mitsumi's face. Anticipation builds for the upcoming musical performance, promising a touching and romantic moment between Shima and Mitsumi. Also the quote: Mitsumi's quote "I'm the kind of person who falls flat on her face a lot. But that makes me a pro at dusting myself off and getting back up" is a reminder that it's okay to make mistakes. In fact, it's important to make mistakes, because that's how we learn and grow. The important thing is to never give up on our dreams, no matter how many times we fall down, and thus she's the reason why I envy girls like her, but in a really good way yk. Looking forward to the musical performance!

Skip to Loafer Tuesdays lets gooo.

Really wondering what Shima’s relationship with that Ririka chick is all about. Obviously goes back to the child acting days, but it’s so toxic.

On the bright side, the school festival preparations are coming along well. It’s really cute how Shima sees a lot of his younger idyllic self in Mitsumi and wants to protect her innocence and happy go lucky nature. I really like how they’re so supportive and caring for each other. All the healthy foundation for a long lasting relationship.

It’s funny cause she thinks he’s the cool one but he really looks up to her.

Speaking of younger Shima, we got another set of flashbacks that shined some light on his home life. Looks like his mom was going thru an abusive relationship and he wanted to keep her happy. That’s a lot of pressure and stress on a young child.

Really good episode.
judging from the flashbacks and the dialogues alone I think Shima got Ririka involved in the showbiz while he himself got out of it. And she is stuck in the shithole against her wishes.

Oh finally theres some little sneak peek on Shima family relationship which kind of truly not so good. But well, the sign in the end section with his mother found out the phamphlet, and prolly going to take a watch, i'm kinda thinking this festival school time will make everything going more smooth on Shima's end of problem.

However, before that, its also nice to see how his interest toward Mitsumi kinda giving a more clearing, this time. She reflected his child energetic past which seriously kinda giving a positive vibe too for the rest of the episode. So yeah, good to see he cheered the girl out of the sorrow, and regain the hype back at her peak again.

Wish them having a fun with the musical play, and let's see how they wrap up the last two episode...

It's alright to cry. Just overcome it. Mitsumi is a great example of a no quitter who sees the positive in failing. Gotta love how she's motivating Shima. These two are the best duo this season hands down.

Oh man, this anime holds a really special place in my heart. In a way, I can relate to all the characters. Shima reminds me of my boyfriend but in the best possible way. He has such a sweet soul and doesn't deserve to go through the stuff he's going through. Instead of worrying about himself, he cares more about others like Mitsumi. I'm happy we got to see some background on Shima's past. Such a shame that Mitsumi and Shima weren't the main characters in the play. The little dance in the courtyard was so cute too :') like I said I love everything about this anime. Its so real.
