| Both Kanoko and Sumika were essentially in a deadlock when it concerns crossing the line between sisterhood and romance, and this is something that the later has learnt the hard way with herself and 2 former girls, which egging the Schwestern relationship at the time with the hidden romance, it only took one move to affect the entire operation of the café. Turns out, her Schwestern got bewitched by Goeido into love, and this is something that she will not accept, but has no choice because reality was shoved into her face. And thereafter, with Goeido's goading, leads Sumika down the path that romance will kill the Liebe café. And that is something that Kanoko will not relent in her romantic pursuit of Hime. The finalization of the Blume election is the results draw near, and the results threaten to derail Kanoko's plans, just like it did with Sumika prior. But instead of addressing the issue, Kanoko only went down the rabbit hole even further and remained untruthful as she is. The kitchen chef Nene overhears the commotion, and though Sumika shared to her the troubles, she being the one afflicted by the past, absolves with Sumika that she understood Kanoko's position and where she is coming from with her romance. With the election period over, who will be the Blume der Liebe to make sweeping changes in the café? |

| Interesting backstory. The plot thickens. I wonder what kind of conclusion we'll get. Cute end card. <3 |

| Still very shallow overall, but I can see they're trying to make this interesting, but when there are no likable characters, it's hard to improve. It's honestly crazy how much the line gets blurred in romance in and out of the cafe. They take relationships in this cafe so seriously, that it's just comical at this point. |
| This was a fantastic episode glad we got some backstory as to why Sumika wants to stop Kanoko from bringing romance into the café I can't wait for the next episode |
| Now we know what makes Kanoko and Sumika tick and why they feel the way they do. That past story with the previous two employees was really fucked up honestly. Even just on a friendship level, sumika got fucked over by someone she thought she had a close bond with. Just totally replaced with a newcomer. Think anyone would be hurt by that. I personally still fully support Sumika’s attempts to stop workplace romance even after her meeting with her old friend. I mean she didn’t even apologise once to sumika after everything that happened? She cancelled the Sisterhood thing and quit leaving them with two cast members only and betrayed her friend and she just lectures sumika? Fuck that. |
 |
| I thought that the chef was the "ex-sister" of Sumika and it was confirmed. Honestly Sumika's push to get rid of work romance seems blown out of proportion as even Kanoko said she wanted to keep things the way they are. It seems Sumika is doing this more for herself than for any other reason and I don't care much for that. Beyond that, I'm thinking that Mitsuki will be the Blume winner and by extension Hime too which may bother Kanoko but we'll see how Kanoko reacts since she called Hime a jerk and I'm curious to see how that plays out. |
That was episode  |
| sad back story for Nene-chan. Probably got traumatized on what happened to her.. so she can now only work in the kitchen. |
| Feel bad for kanako. She’s really struggling mentally. I feel like tachibana has the wrong idea about kanako. |
| That was painful to watch (in a good way)! Even though I can't support Kanoko with how obsessed she is with Hime, I still feel sorry for her. For Sumika too. She just wants to do what's right, but might've ruined everything herself now, because she didn't approach Kanoko correctly... And I had no idea Saonji was Nene until the end. Now, I wonder if there will be a plot twist for the Blume election next week. But I don't see Hime or Kanoko making a comeback here. My money is on Mitsuki. |
| Kanoko isn't wrong, if what Sumika only really wants is to stop love then she shouldn't be looking at Kanoko and Hime. |
| This took an interesting direction, so Kanoko has chosen to not do anything but Sumika still wants to stop her anyway, and it was revealed that Kanoko doesn’t actually want romance with Hime and just wants things to stay as they are, which I definitely get and is something I’ve seen in other shows, like a fear of actual romance changing things. And Hime sussing out Kanoko which caused her to cry was upsetting to see but it also further shows that Kanoko doesn’t want anything to change between her and Hime. And there was another interesting reveal, being Sumika’s reasoning for wanting romance out of the cafe and the fact that Nene is actually the Saionji she knew in the past, and this was something I noticed near the end when Nene first sat down with Sumika so I’m glad I caught it before the actual reveal lol, so I really liked that. She ended up giving Sumika good advice too, because let’s face it, Sumika was pushing things a bit too hard but now that she’s taken Nene’s advice I’m really looking forward to what she ends up doing, and once again I have an idea of what it might be lol. And at this point I think Kanoko needs to branch out, because her attachment to Hime is hurting her more than it’s doing her good now, I just want what’s best for our blue waifu lol. |
This is accurate lol |
| How is Kanoko still working there, when she continues to be garbage at her job? Terrible in these Liebe academy scenario roleplays, hardly able to speak to customers, always some sort of conflict or tense moment between her and her coworkers, even on the job, in front of everyone, etc. Her annoying yandere ass should be straight out the door. |
| Not one of the best episodes in the series, but an interesting one. I think it made me understand Sumika a lot more. And I really liked that little twist where one of the former employees is now the cook. |
| I think everyone in this show are way too absorbed with their roles in their part time job, making it more dramatic than it requires. |
| At this point Sumika is the only girl I don't really relate at all with her motives unless there is something deeper to it. Why did she even care about her fictional relationship with "Saionji" so much to begin with? It's not like it messes up any story they were making since they never had a real plan beyond mimicking a setting from a book to begin with. Did she just want attention from customers or was she actually into Nene for real and never realized it even now? She did say she tried to warn her about bringing romance on the job but why did she not just tell her that "Goeida" was playing with her just for show to customers? Did she not realize that the relationship was real so she let it slide? She has the worst possible motive of anyone here (aside from Goeida) with her meddling in other people's personal lives over a job. Now because of her Kanoko looks like she's heading toward a scenario she may attempt killing herself. At least she was able to see error of her ways when it was pointed out to her how stupid she's been so I can't hold it too much against her if she changes. Bisalissy said: I feel basically same way about Kanoko. I feel sorry for Kanoko but I can't ship with her with Hime from how she still has some issues of being controlling. I understand she is the way she is in so much a way it seems perfectly natural the way she acts. An insecure timid girl with no other friends and no one to turn to but Hime of course she would be fixated on her she's only person she can direct her attention to and the only one who has showed any sincere care for her without trying to get anything from her. That was painful to watch (in a good way)! Even though I can't support Kanoko with how obsessed she is with Hime, I still feel sorry for her. For Sumika too. She just wants to do what's right, but might've ruined everything herself now, because she didn't approach Kanoko correctly... And I had no idea Saonji was Nene until the end. Now, I wonder if there will be a plot twist for the Blume election next week. But I don't see Hime or Kanoko making a comeback here. My money is on Mitsuki. I could see purely for plot purposes Kanoko potentially winning because it could help her self esteem while placing her in an award position Marinate1016 said: Everything that happened? What happened? All that happened unless there is more to it that wasnt explained was a fictitious relationship was changed and the place was short one member more than it would have otherwise and even then that girl just wound up working in the kitchen later and it didnt put an end to things so we see the impact is only in Sumika's feelings about it. Goeida left because she never really cared about that as a job in a serious way it was just something fun for her to do so she would have left without the fling just the same. A cast of three isnt much better than two they always need at least four at a minimum and that wasnt going to happen at that time. Sumika has unrealistic expectations of others to treat a low wage job as if it's all they have in their life. Sumika may have her own reasons but I have a feeling it's just her trying to do escapism for some reason is something I could see coming up. Now we know what makes Kanoko and Sumika tick and why they feel the way they do. That past story with the previous two employees was really fucked up honestly.

| I was watching the flashback part and thought to myself "isn't this Saionji girl the same girl who works in the kitchen?" and then it says that she couldn't continue to work at the salon so I thought no way. But then she actually is and I had to pause and rub my head a couple times. Huh? Anyway, are all the employees in this salon high school students or what? Is there any adults but Mai here??? Kanoko isn't planning to do anything, but her actions are contradicting her statement. She tries to mess with the salon's theme by erasing the schwestern system with Sumika as the blume. When that fails, in a roundabout way, she tries to not let Hime become the blume schwestern. It doesn't matter what you think of Sumika, but she's in the right about prohibiting romantic feelings in work environment. It's very hard to be fair and objective when push comes to shove, just like with Goeido's case. While Saionji still works at the salon as a cook, ultimately everything that has been built up for the customers are burned to the ground, impossible to fix. Hime has Yano now and Kanoko knows this. She starts to feel she might not be needed by Hime sooner or later that's why Kanoko sticks to her more than ever. Even Hime must be a bit tired with Kanoko, right? Kanoko may want Hime as her only friend, but that's the worst possible outcome for Hime. What Hime wants for Kanoko is for her to get rid of her shyness and socialize with a lot of people and make more friends; friends that aren't Hime. I'm gonna be so mad that the finale to this anime is about Kanoko's arc and then she ends up being Sumika's schwestern. God I hope not. |

traed said: She clearly has the most logical motive here. Bringing romance into workplace is hardly a good thing. It's also why "real" companies (at least most which I know) ban husband-wife in the same office and/or department. It's where the "keep our love at the office a secret" theme comes from. The salon has a theme of schwestern, of course when legit romantic feelings enter the equation a lot of things can go wrong. Wanting that to not happen is always in the salon's best interest. Because they are employees. They get paid so they better do the job properly.

She neglects work, interferes with the salon operation by sulking and glaring at Sumika while still on clock. |

Yuu_Kanzaki said: She seems to have ulterior motives, she's motivated by emotion not logic. Like maybe she was too scared to realize she is into Nene or failed in relationships and wants to sabotage others or she is just trying to live in an escapist fantasy and expects everyone else to play along. She's selfish while claiming to be considerate. She neglects other people's feelings for her own. Also we don't actually know the actual setup of the ownership. It's kind of implied Mai is the owner but if she did this with Sumika then Sumika also could be the owner but it might not even be like that for all we know it could be a workers co-operative or an employee stock owned situation and Mai is just directing the direction of the theme. If it's so bad they never should have been bringing in people that know eachother at all to begin with. traed said: She clearly has the most logical motive here.

She neglects work, interferes with the salon operation by sulking and glaring at Sumika while still on clock. They brought in Kanoko knowing she knows Hime. They kept Hime even though Mitsuki recognized her. They have Nene working in the kitchen even though Sumika seems she might have feelings for her. So if Mai is the employer only Mai is to blame and Sumika is too if she shares that role. Like I brought up before Goeida (apparently her actual name is Youko) still disrupted things by abruptly leaving which would have happened anyway without any romance. They brought in Hime even though Mitsuki had a grudge against her and romance wasnt needed for that to be a thing. They have Nene working in the kitchen even though Sumika was mad at her for leaving before and romance wasnt needed for her to feel that way. Then there is the whole fact Mai blackmailed Hime to join. How is romantic feelings somehow worse than making someone work against their original will? That's practically slavery. You cant control how people feel, that's completely unreasonable, but you can not-blackmail people. They would just get rid of Kanoko if she were that much a problem. How is she neglecting work? Remember the whole point of this place is it's a theme café. Kanoko fills a role of a shy jealous character. Also she has been working with taking orders fine so she also fills the role of a normal waitress too so she isn't exactly interfering because everything she does just becomes part of the show all the same. She is trying to interfere with the theme by wanting to abolish the Swestern but that's what you get for expecting a bunch of random high schoolers to do top tier on the fly acting and improv story telling. They HAVE to rely on actual relationships to tell a story because they arent hiring actors or writers. Again everything comes back to Mai being a sleazy profiteer and bad business runner. |

traed said: Not Mai or Sumika are aware of Hime and Yano's past because they don't talk about it with anyone. I'm pretty sure Kanoko is the only one that knows, then again, through Hime's point of view. About Kanoko's employment, yeah, I think that's a miss on Mai's part. She was the one that said it would be a problem if someone who knows Hime were to join because they become aware that she's working there. But it's different with Nene and Goeida. They were, as far as I know, not related in any way prior to working at the salon. Nene falls in love with Goeida all the while she is already in a schwestern relationship with Sumika, and that proves to be affecting her work performance. Sumika just doesn't want this to happen again, and does what she thinks is necessary to prevent the same incident from happening the second time. Sumika is not selfish, Nene is selfish. After Sumika had told her not to get too attached to Goeida, she still did. Look at the outcome. It doesn't matter what Nene thinks love is about for herself. Her decision ended up almost breaking the salon. And only now does she confront Sumika about it and try to act as a good friend? Talk about being selfish. And it's not like Nene now in the kitchen generates any problem for the salon anyway, so I don't see why she can't stay. Unlike a certain yandere girl.

Like maybe she was too scared to realize she is into Nene or failed in relationships and wants to sabotage others or she is just trying to live in an escapist fantasy and expects everyone else to play along. She's selfish while claiming to be considerate. She neglects other people's feelings for her own. Also we don't actually know the actual setup of the ownership. It's kind of implied Mai is the owner but if she did this with Sumika then Sumika also could be the owner but it might not even be like that for all we know it could be a workers co-operative or an employee stock owned situation and Mai is just directing the direction of the theme. If it's so bad they never should have been bringing in people that know eachother at all to begin with. She clearly has the most logical motive here. Bringing romance into workplace is hardly a good thing. It's also why "real" companies (at least most which I know) ban husband-wife in the same office and/or department. It's where the "keep our love at the office a secret" theme comes from. The salon has a theme of schwestern, of course when legit romantic feelings enter the equation a lot of things can go wrong. Wanting that to not happen is always in the salon's best interest. Because they are employees. They get paid so they better do the job properly. Kanoko is in the wrong. She neglects work, interferes with the salon operation by sulking and glaring at Sumika while still on clock. They brought in Kanoko knowing she knows Hime. They kept Hime even though Mitsuki recognized her. They have Nene working in the kitchen even though Sumika seems she might have feelings for her. So if Mai is the employer only Mai is to blame and Sumika is too if she shares that role. Like I brought up before Goeida (apparently her actual name is Youko) still disrupted things by abruptly leaving which would have happened anyway without any romance. They brought in Hime even though Mitsuki had a grudge against her and romance wasnt needed for that to be a thing. They have Nene working in the kitchen even though Sumika was mad at her for leaving before and romance wasnt needed for her to feel that way. Then there is the whole fact Mai blackmailed Hime to join. How is romantic feelings somehow worse than making someone work against their original will? That's practically slavery. You cant control how people feel, that's completely unreasonable, but you can not-blackmail people. They would just get rid of Kanoko if she were that much a problem. How is she neglecting work? Remember the whole point of this place is it's a theme café. Kanoko fills a role of a shy jealous character. Also she has been working with taking orders fine so she also fills the role of a normal waitress too so she isn't exactly interfering because everything she does just becomes part of the show all the same. She is trying to interfere with the theme by wanting to abolish the Swestern but that's what you get for expecting a bunch of random high schoolers to do top tier on the fly acting and improv story telling. They HAVE to rely on actual relationships to tell a story because they arent hiring actors or writers. Again everything comes back to Mai being a sleazy profiteer and bad business runner. Kanoko is basically hindering the whole salon with her attitude, constantly making tense atmosphere around other co-workers. Sumika covers for her mistake, only to be unappreciated by the very person Sumika was doing it for. She keeps the sour attitude up and acts hostile toward Sumika, not wanting to process anything. Obviously Sumika can just report this to Mai and let her make a stern decision either for her to leave on her own accord or ban her entirely from the salon. But I think Sumika not doing that comes from a place of kindness. She's withholding information as long as she can for the time being because she cares about Kanoko just as she does about the salon. And I don't see Mai recruiting Hime as something very serious. To me it feels like a joke to start the story. |

| I was looking at the character list while watching this episode. I was noticing a character missing from this episode. And yet...I STILL DIDN'T SEE THE TWIST AT THE END!??! Also I am so surprised how deep and complex this show has turned out to be. |
| Sumika got lectured by the girl who dumped her like trash after a big tiddy bitch rizzed her up like an idiot. I just can't... |
DavidArcher said: So it's been 2 years since the Goeido incident, that means Sumika should at least be 18 now, right. What about Mai? I assume she's an adult since she's the manager, but you can never be too sure.Yuu_Kanzaki said: Anyway, are all the employees in this salon high school students or what? Is there any adults but Mai here??? Nene is an adult, she works in the kitchen full time. According to volume 10 of the manga at the time of her relationship with Goeido she was 18 and she's 20 now. |

| I agree with the white hair girl (who's the one in the backstory). Especially that it's a roleplay café anyway, why he she focusing so hard on that aspect like it would genuinely matter for her anyway |

| Holy shit, with all of the back story they suddenly dump here. Firstly, we got the backstory with gal senpai, which reveals that the cooker actually the senpai previous sister whose got a lover incident with some ara-ara quick wanderer? Lmao what the fuck i don't see that coming honestly, but deep inside i actually feel relief she's not quitting the job fully after she gets dumped by those poisonous snaker passer-by whose suddenly love her like that 💀 I am actually surprise too by reading the comment above about their age, glasses-gal-senpai was younger than the white-hair girl? Wtf 💀 All in all, i can see how Sumika might've given up to interfere the dynamic relationship within Kanoko-Hime-Yano, instead to support Kanoko cause i can see her to do that judging by the end suggest there. Let it flow, and be wish its not really so mess up. Maybe Kanoko can melt her heart a little and let things go after Sumika readily also opened up to her as well as the new sisterhood relationship? Idk with the plot decision its ended, so yeah, let's see next.... |

| Wow this anime is like a rollercoaster The last episode was horribly bad and this was brilliant We finally have lesbian kissing,,,YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES Also. A lot of people calling my lesbian angel Kanoko for crazy, But IMO the one who is acting crazy is rather Sumika. She has extreme control issues and seems to believe she can control other people's feelings. And decide they cant romance. Who the fuck do you think you are! It's not your business stop putting your danm nose where it doesn't belong! And now she does the same thing to Kanoko. I'm glad my princess is speaking back. She has every right to fight for the girl she loves Gotou didn't thread Saionji very nicely. But she doesn't have any obligations to her. If you chose to play around with love the chance it will bite you in the ass is enormous. That's life and it happens to most of us. And it's important we are allowed to make our own mistakes in life that is how we learn. My Saionji is clearly aware of this and I'm glad she told Sumika. Because the only one who destroyed their sister's relationship was her because of her control issues. And she has NO right to try to control other people's romance. Also, she is wrong. She said that the relationship is not romantic. But "Schwestern in liebe" means sisters in LOVE in German And from now on my little lesbian diamond, Kanoko will get more attention and love from me. Because she is not crazy at all. She is in love! And she has every right to pursue it. I will cheer like crazy for you honey❤❤❤ You keep on fighting sweetheart ❤❤❤ Anime! I don't know what your fucking problem is. One second you crash and burn, And then you do this. I love this episode one of the best I have seen in a long time. So you are out of the doghouse,,,, For now!  |

| I'm still in the Tachibana corner. She may be trying too hard to steer Kanoko, but when Yano and Hime are playing it up to the customers about the Blume voting and you have someone brooding in the background it's going to be noticed. |
