| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ushio really knows how to kill the mood; a part of me wished it was a little more melodramatic instead of comedic though. Poor Akemiya though, what an odd way to get somebody's attention. It looks more than getting attention though... more like a fetish. I loved the part when he called Simuka cute though, she looked so dazed. Hopefully we get to see him more often later on. |

| I feel bad for Akemiya, getting rejected and all. But I guess that's the way it is for Sumi too. This episode definitely felt more comedic than last episode. So far though, this series is very enjoyable. |
 |
| There doing a fantastic job so far with turning it in to an anime <3 I love the part when he tells her she's cute tho. xD |

tehnominator said: *erases manga from memory* I really should do that too =_= Cos it is a pretty good yuri romance story with decent amount of drama, yet a little voice in the back of my mind is screaming "Where is my yuri comedy?!" >_< |
 |
| agh.>_< is it me or Sumi doesn't sound like Elen from phantom at all> her voice. Anyways=_= poor akemiya.... |
| LET JUSTICE BE DONE; THOUGH THE HEAVENS MAY FALL |
| hahaha that was amusing. i really love the background music in this. it gives the show a rather nice atmosphere . |

And Akemiya doesn't take off the dress, even when not in public. So it's really looking like a fetish. |

| That was really enjoyable for me. Its so cute how Sumi had the courage to go stand infront of Ushio's door but couldn't get herself to actually ring the doorbell. |
| I enjoyed the episode...but I feel like I could use either more drama or more comedy. |
| I was confused in the beginning because I though it was Kazama for some time until I figured out it was Akemiya. Was this due to his sister getting into modeling like it says in the information of characters or he is doing it to please Sumika? I did find it funny the burst of Sumika in the magazine place and Akemiya was there too. Does Kazama think of herself as cute or just likes Akemiya as a girl because she blushes a lot looking at the magazine. I also though that Sumika was a little agressive (she did shove him on the wall) on Akemiya after he told her she was cute. I do like Sumika for not letting herself be insulted by the boys of thinking of her as a sword. Is it my imagination or Kazama breasts are shown off too much? Also what were the roses that Sumika brough for? Hoping Akemiya and Sumika go out. chinlamp said: No, he did take off the dress, but he has lolita nightgowns, which is just as disturbing. Yeah it is but was his own fault or his sister is my question above as I wonder. chinlamp said: I know that this shows all about the lesbians, but I really wish that for once an anime or manga could choose not to go the obvious route and make a story simply for the fans. I'd rather that Sumi ended up with Akemiya, but as the show is obviously aimed at the lesbian loving crowd, it won't happen T__T Yeah I hope too that Sumika ends up with Akemiya. We will have to see. |

| Somehow I laughed more at this than at most comedy anime... At least to me this is just as funny as the manga. Anyway, decent episode, they built up the tension wonderfully. This makes me empathize with Sumika even more. Great example of how feelings can be one hell of a complicated thing. |
| God I love this. tehnominator already said pretty much everything else in his first post. |
 |
| I thought that she's like REALLY tall, but she's 1,75? And I felt sorry for Akemiya...poor guy XD Though the ending was weird...oo XDD Anyway, this ep. was way better than the first one^-^ And, am I the only person who finds Ushio annoying? >> |

GothicQueen said: I thought that she's like REALLY tall, but she's 1,75? It's seventeen centimetres above the average height of Japanese women, and five above that of Japanese men. A European would have to be about 183cm to compare, which is pretty tall. |
 And on the edge of sanity I stumble and fall. |
| I actually thought there was a reasonable amount of comedy in it. I love my drama and emotional parts beside the comedy. Mixture of those elements seems fine to me. Great episode. Really looking forward to more. But really, Ushio is the female version of your typical male lead. Quite hilarious to see a girl going after every fine skirt. XD |
   |
| "I am cute!" Now that is really something. I can rewatch that for as long as I could. |

| I liked that the especially the cross dressing boy seems like that could become an interesting story. |
 |
| It was ok Definitely an improvement over last episode But still boring Especially the first half Hopefully the series continues to go uphill (at a faster pace preferably =3) |
   |
| I can has yuri now? Pacing was much better this episode, keep me into the whole episode. Definitely excited for this series now. |
| just watched episode 2 and man you have no idea how much i hate this anime. if i dont start to like it more by next episode then ill probably drop it. i rate the episode a 1/5 |
| I just want to say that, I pity those Crunchyroll watchers, especially for this episode. I don't mean to troll, but their translation accuracy and so-called edits gave me quite a headache. I think, they also should learn how not to not translate parts of the episode and important signs. The episode was really sweet but CR ruined it for me. I should've watched it raw before watching it with subs. |

And, am I the only person who finds Ushio annoying? >> She gets worse -o-, at least in chapters 18+ of the manga. We'll just have to deal with it xD Awesome episode! I dunno how the boys keep saying Sumika isn't cute, she has a cute face -o-. Well, not the attitude xD. I want my TomoexMiyako nao |
| I can see this is easily going to be one of my favorites this season! Reminds me of Aoi Hana. |
| Eight foot rim. |
hankgathers said: Eight foot rim. I would to say that Sumi-chan's dunk was nice. |
In spoiler my anime list for now. |
| I'm not completely sold on this show yet but so far I really like it. I feel for the characters which is always a good sign, I really want Murasame and Kazama to be happy together. XD |
| Ah yes..this is different about what I read that happened in the manga with Akemiya's gender issue. I honestly thought he was a girl in the beginning, despite the male uniform. I feel bad for Sumi though..damn Ushio :/ |
 |
| This was cute. It's kinda weird that the guy that's crushing on Sumi likes to dress up like a girl...to the point of having makeup and sleeping in nightgowns. Kinda weird. I loved this episode though, however I wish they would choose whether to make it comedic or romantic, having both in this...it just feels like they aren't mixing it right. :/ And yes, I find Ushio incredibly annoying. She's acting like a guy drooling over every girl that comes by. |
DarcyD said: I loved this episode though, however I wish they would choose whether to make it comedic or romantic, having both in this...it just feels like they aren't mixing it right. :/ Yeah I agree with this. The comedy bits kind of seem to break up the flow of the show for me. |
| LOL I did not see that coming. That was great. :D |
| Really? No one posted it yet? Okay then I'll do it.   |
 |

| Awww, Sumi-chan is so cute :'DDDD This episode was definitely better than the first one ! Not so boring and slow-paced either and the characters had more deepness :------))) |
     |
| It's funny, most people who have complaints about this seem to be that it's less comedy driven than the manga. I haven't read the manga, so I don't know what it's like, but my biggest complaint is that there's too much silly generic anime comedy going on. It's not a lot, but it's enough to distract from the overall story. It's not bad really, just a little annoying, I suppose. |
| Cute episode, one of the two shows I planned to see this season, and I'm not disappointed thus far. Zilpzalp said: Sure, this is off topic, but WHY are all of them that small? Question should rather be why Europeans are this tall nowadays, since they weren't. Sure, the industrial revolution did a whole lot, but the amount of growth over the generations appear more than for Asians in the same time, from my perspective.
