| What will be Himari's answer? Even though Himari's "love" remained the same, at some point, everyone else finds a different kind of "love". The "love" directed towards her had suddenly appeared before her eyes, leaving her bewildered in that moment. While she did have feelings for Yori, she was troubled by being presented with a different kind of "like" than her own. Seeking advice from Miki Mizuguchi, who told her that there's no need to force herself to think about whether or not she "loves" her, Himari found the encouragement she needed to face Yori once again. Himari explained to Yori that she needs a little more time, seeing as this kind of stuff is new to her, and that she'll give it some time and head straight to the rooftop once she has her answer. Miki's perspective on not being confined by the idea of dating or not dating was incredibly refreshing for me. Likewise, Himari's openness with Yori about her feelings and the need for time was a breath of fresh air. I was worried they might stop interacting or communicating due to the awkwardness, so seeing them address it head-on was heartening. The rooftop scene was simply wonderful, with them sitting down and discussing their feelings and fears of potentially hurting each other or jeopardizing their existing relationship. Himari's response and Yori's excited reaction, followed by a series of adorable interactions, all led to Yori reaffirming her determination to make Himari fall for her. Now with Himari's answer, Yori is taking a significant step by officially joining the band. |

| What is love? Pretty cute episode again. I really liked the interactions between Yori and Himari. That rooftop scene was sweet. :3 It's good that they didn't decide to start dating immediately. Himari needs some times so she can be sure about her feelings. |

| This show is just so cute and amazing so far Yori and Himari are so great together they are always so considerate of each others feelings. |
| It's good that everything was cleared up, even though Hinari didn't accept Yori's confession, she gave him a chance until he really fell in love with her. I have no doubt that they will end up together in the end. Something I couldn't help but notice and laugh about is that this episode was full of PowerPoint-style transitions. I imagine that the former vocalist of Aki's band will be the purple-haired girl in the OP. |
 |
| Did they use Powerpoint for the transitions? lol |
 |
| What does it mean to love someone romantically? A simple, yet profound question we see Himari grapple with over the course of this episode. Having been confessed to by Yori, someone she idolised, she’s naturally taken aback and has to evaluate how she really feels. I’m both glad that they didn’t drag things out too long and by the end of the episode the girls are ready to move forward with getting to know another, AND they don’t get in a relationship off rip. That would’ve felt forced because Himari doesn’t even know how she feels yet or what love truly she is. She just knows she wants to spend time with Yori and she values their friendship a lot. No rush anyway, they have plenty of time to feel each other out(pun intended). Speaking of Himari’s mom, wow she looks amazing no wonder Himari’s dad was crashing out over her lmao. She might be even cuter than Himari. Gave some amazing advice and really helped Himari get going. Yori is joining the band! This is gonna be fun especially since it seems like blonde girl has a thing for Yori.. do I smell some drama brewing? Story-wise episode was good, but production wise it left a lot to be desired. Some of the transitions looked like they were made on windows movie maker or something lol. |

| Did they use Windows movie maker for this? lol. I love Hina's mom, reminds me of Yuigamama. |
| For the romance only genre, I truly need something a bit more than just fluff and full of the usual tropes. It might be enough for the average person, but this is the equivalent of a popcorn show to me, nothing more, nothing less. It's not as bad as the bottom of the barrel shoujo romance we are getting, still watchable I suppose. |
| Took some time but I'm glad they got that first hurdle out of the way. Good on Himari's mum giving her advice over some hot cocoa though. Looking forward to finding out why this Izumi girl quit the band. Curious if we'll get a battle of the bands episode here and there. |
 |
| What's up with all the anime episodes today feeling like they are 5 min long?? |
| Himari finally confesses her true feelings to Yori that she loves her. And from now on they will be even closer than before. Now what is Yori trying to do to make Himari love her more? Can't wait.  |

| When Himari's mom was telling her story about how she married Himari's father I thought: "stop, please carry on with the shoujo romance" xDDD. Miki is super cute, maybe the plot can thicken if she also feels something about Himari. |

| The animation is fine when it is actually animated. Problem is there were far too many stills this episode. Luckily, it is staying faithful to the source and the source is great. I still really enjoyed it, but I am obviously biased here, haha. Fingers crossed that they are strategically using their budget and this isn't going to be the norm for every episode going forward. |
 |
| Animation quality is poor, that's disappointing. This show is reminding me of Bloom Into You as well and though I understand the story will go quite differently later I can't help but compare them and I liked Bloom alot. Himari is not growing on me like Yuu did. |
 |
| I love how Yori & Himari are honest about their feelings when they talk to each other in the rooftop scene, their relationship is so sweet. Also, Himari's mom (Yuigamama) made her debut as well. Awesometacular! |
 |
| Looks like I’m not the only one who noticed a drop in quality this episode, it still looked fine overall but hopefully this isn’t a sign of production issues to come. Besides that, very nice episode, the situation with Kino not understanding love and giving Yori a chance is reminding me quite a bit of another show this season called “A Condition Called Love” but it’s yuri instead lol, not a bad thing tho as I’m really enjoying that show as well as this one. I liked that Kino got advice from her mom too, her love for her husband was sweet and I liked the story of them getting together, it was definitely a big help in Kino figuring out the best plan of action. Also her mom is looking pretty hot lol, no wonder Kino is so cute herself. And on Yori’s side of things, she was worried that her confession was the end of the relationship and that she’d never hear back from Kino, thankfully that didn’t happen and the moment where they finally got to see each other again was really nice. And not only that, Yori also ended up joining Aki’s band after all, not really surprised about that but I look forward to the hot jams they cook up, although they absolutely could have been a three-piece band like Motörhead, or even traded vocals around, who needs just one vocalist anyway lol. |
| im so afraid of that potential love triangle. why cant we just have a super diabetes inducing show without huge drama ;( i hope theyll be going on many dates now so that himari will fall in true love |

| This episode almost lost me. I was getting increasingly upset with the whole "I love you, but I don't love you" shtick. Although, the end of the episode brought me back in. I realized that it is just a clever plot device to get Yori to sing again. Still impressed with the pacing of the show. |

| Himari's conception of love has always been the abnormal generalist kind, so much so that as much as Yori puts her on airs, she definitely feels awkward to respond to romantic love for the first time. Word of this is brought to Miki, which she barrages Himari of what actually went down with the date. Like Hananoi, dating to try if one likes the other is a trial, and Himari is literally in the same position as Hotaru trying to figure out what romantic love is. It's the same with Yori who's deen daydreaming all day, and Himari's reply by stalling her and giving space to think about it, it's good that they still have mutual contact to tell each other that they're still into each other, but more consideration is needed on Himari's space. Yori breaking the news to Mizuguchi, and it's a relief on the latter's side. Even Himari asking her own parents about romantic love, and her mother was practically in the same position as her. That gives Himari some idea, and decides to see Yori to make her feelings known, and actually give her a chance to date her, even if she knows that she'll hurt her feelings. With that thought in mind, Yori rejoins the Light Music Club...to the surprise of her band friends. One significant step to romantie love. |

| Good, not withount problems, but good :3 |
| I usually don't care about animation quality that much, but those powerpoint transitions between scenes are genuinely hindering with my ability to get immersed in the story with their tackiness. Even just an abrupt cut would be a better way to move along and probably save some money too while we're at it!! I also feel like the "innocent, earnest girl who has never personally experienced romantic love X girl who is down bad for her" is such an overdone relationship dynamic in yuri anime. It's not necessarily a bad one – I actually like the friends to lovers trope when it's written well – but even great things are inevitably going to get stale after seeing the exact same story progression play out in like 5 adaptations... |
   |
| It's sweet how Himari took her time to consider things. I think how she started tearing up talking to Yori I might have done same in her position trying to say that. |
| Boring episode, just thoughts going on and on, but at least there was some decision. Can't say I even like the main couple, the whole romance part is quite generic. The animation was awful this episode, what's even the point of those rectangular transitions? |
