Very good episode with realistic character development and lots of actual good comedy.
I don't especially like shoujo (most of the time because nothing ever fucking happens), but this one, even this clichéd and retro, manages to not waste a single second or a single frame. It also did the great job of making me sympthize with all the characters in but two episodes.

This is definitely another of the awesome series that started this april.
Though I don't know if I'll follow it on a weekly basis or if I'll wait six months to marathon it : waiting a week before watching episode 2 was painful, as painful as waiting a whole week to watch Kurenai 2...

I wasn't impressed with the kinda boring first episode with a cliche twist, but this episode sold me to the series, i'll probably be following this one to the end.

I'll say it again : this is not cliché.
This "invented" the shojo-clichés.
It's adapted from a 1991 manga, for Haruhi's sake.

Man, I love how totally shoujo this series is. And while the two main characters are still pretty cliché, the rest of the cast is great.

And doesn't the school have anything better to do than gossip about their relationship?

This show really reminds me of Marmalade Boy. Even the eye-catch is very similar to the one used in later seasons of MB. Kotoko sometimes looks a lot like Miki...or is it Tsukushi Makino from Hana Yori Dango...

Maybe it is just the retro animation style. At any rate, having enjoyed the aforementioned shows, this is quickly growing on me. While the first episode didn't accomplish much, this one got the story moving - perhaps because it focused so much more on the interaction between the two lead characters. Although this living arrangement is not as funny as the parents situation in MB, this living arrangement and the character's handling of the situation are believable.

It's a nice change of pace and I'm diggin' it.

I love this series so far. This is exactly what i've been looking for in a good shoujo anime. I really liked how it showed the progression of Irie and Kotoko's relationship. Looking forward to the next ep. ^_^

I love this series, and when you find out about what Irie's mom did to him when he was a baby made roll around laughing for a good five minutes, I've never seen something so funny delivered so well. Seems like a good start this the show.

This was 100000x better than the first episode. Things started to develop more quickly and the comedy really picked up. I guess the first episode was necessary just to set up the story but they sure could've paced it better. Kotoko's expressions are just so kawaii. Irie's starting to show a different side too. I feel more hopeful toward the series now and will probably keep it. The sports meet seems like fun, can't wait to see it.

I totally changed my mind about this anime. This episode was infinitely better than the lame first one, it game me many very good laughs. I hope it'll be like this from now on.
