Yeah, an episode about Kiyoko trying ot help Yano at lunch.

I mean, it's a mundane everyday task but I guess for this anime, it's important for the two to bond. Good for them though. I can see some things like this build a relationship between the two.

Damn, they did actually allowed this man to held a pencil, that may ... considering the circumstances not be the best idea, what if he fell down on it, like ten times repeatedly.

But something told me that Yano is gonna draw her really nice, he gave such a "vibe".

Having enough hand eye coordination to be able to draw well but not enough to be able to clip the paper to a board sure is something. He's like the anime boy equivalent of those infomercial actors who can't accomplish simple tasks.

@Swagernator I was more worried about him holding an exacto knife. Surprised he managed not to kill himself lol

The whiplash from the adorable fluffy moments and genuine shock from some of Yano's injuries makes this a weirdly engaging watch. I actively flinched from the impact of that painting, sheesh.

It's hilariously fitting that Kyoko sees Yano as baby-faced from how fragile and 'protectable' he is, but damn, Yano's sketch of her blew me away. Dude's talented.

How this doesn’t have the supernatural tag is amazing, because our poor boy is legitimately cursed. How he is able to survive some of those injuries is crazy, but it does seem like he is going to struggle throughout the course of this season. I just want him to catch a break eventually.

The show can continue to insist Yano is just clumsy, but most of the things that happen to him really aren't his fault. Man has to be cursed at this point, this goes far beyond mere clumsiness.

Yano is really high maintenance lol
How is he even alive yet !? 😭😭

Kiyoko would be the only girl interested in such a dude and that too happens only in anime. Yano makes Izumi from Shikimori's not just a cutie look like a joke 😅😅

But Yano did a fantastic job with Kiyoko's portrait inspite of his injuries.. ❤️❤️💯

Damn this guy is cursed. Call him an exorcist or something.

I wonder how long this story can keep up? How long until getting injured jokes get old? And .. when will we see his second eye?
All very important questions.

Perhaps it lacks the thriller genre, as I really do worry about Jano given his level of bad luck, but as a romance and comedy it's sweet and funny.

“I just drew what I saw” HELP, they’re so cute I can’t.. just date already 😭 I just love everything about this series. It’s Shikimori, but good so far. Our two leads’ chemistry is great and all their interactions are just wholesome af. No unnecessary drama, just a girl trying to keep the boy she likes from dying at school lol.

“maybe a normal high school life is all these youthful moments” there you go!! There’s no one size fits all answer for a normal high school or life experience. Everyone is different and that’s valid. Kiyoko protecting Yano and bringing him into her friend group is their normal and that’s ok. Loved the lunch segment so much. If Yano can’t eat anything he brings for lunch, just make him a lunch so you know it’s safe and won’t cause any problems lol. That’s such a big moment for Yano as well because he’s never been able to eat lunch with friends and seeing them all go to such lengths for him had to move him so much.

The way they both drew each other so beautifully for their art assignment 🥰ok tbf Kiyoko’s could use some work, but she tried her best and Yano appreciated it so that’s all that matters. Him drawing her like the most beautiful person on the planet is so cute!! That confession when it comes will move mountains

Kiyoko is so freaking pretty, but seeing the job Ajia-do have done with this and Yubiren makes me wonder why they couldn’t make Bookworm look as good as these two shows?? Imagine if Myne would’ve got this sort of detail smh. WIT got us, but I’d love to have seen this character designer and team working on bookworm.

If I were the principal I think I’d make the school nurse check in on Yano-kun hourly. He would’ve finished his food earlier if it weren’t for that dingbat at the top of the stairs. Glad he has a group of friends now.

Loved the episode. It reminded me of a chapter from a manga I read called No Grayu in This Class. I won’t spoil anything, but during one of the chapters, something happened in a drawing session, just like how beautiful Tsuyoshi’s drawing of Kiyoko was.

I also loved that Mei took a picture with her phone of Tsuyoshi and Kiyoko, each holding the drawing the other made of them, Tsuyoshi holding Kiyoko’s drawing of him, and Kiyoko holding Tsuyoshi’s drawing of her. It’s all about preserving memories, after all, that’s why we take pictures!

I don’t know if Mei ever sent Tsuyoshi and Kiyoko the picture she took, but I sure hope she does. It would be hilarious to see one of them glaring at the photo while secretly admiring the other, only for their relatives to notice and start asking questions, totally catching them off guard, haha.

Poor Yano, such a cutie patootie, he's doing his best, but still something happens. I'm so glad all of them are trying their best to make his school life fun. Also, where was he hiding those drawing skills? I bet he has many more that we will discover...

I love this show. It's just cute and wholesome, sometimes that's all you need.

But are we sure Yano Kun is the problem and not the other guy? Although I love all of thr four characters as well.

The two incidents that occurred when they were eating weren't Yano's fault, so gotta guess that more than being clumsy, dude's just extremely unlucky.

Weaker than the first episode if I'm honest. Second half with the drawing session was cute but Haruto not being able to read the room during the first half was tiring to say the least.

Yano's luck seems almost non-existent 99% of the time. The poor guy tried his best to eat his delicious has brown, but was always interrupted by either his own fumbling or Tanaka being a doofus and causing havoc, which happened twice. Still, when that 1% lucky moment strikes home, it makes for such a sweet moment, especially when he finally got a bite of the hash brown from Kiyoko's home-made lunch.

One thing that I didn't expect was his talent in sketching. While he was still in hardcore calamity mode with the easel and pencils, he still had enough time to make an excellent sketch of Kiyoko's face. He's certainly succeeding in making Kiyoko fall for him more than ever! =)

It still remains a nice and fun series to watch. Mei and Tanaka do make for a fun supporting duo as their chemistry is entertaining and funny.

Are you sure Yano isn't cursed by someone? I mean, while most of the time he's just extremely clumsy, like a shell-shock victim, in this episode it's like we're seeing a segment from Final Destination, where he suffers even from other people's actions while simply sitting on the stairs.

@SouthRzVa Maybe he's just extremely lucky, we could just have something like Final Destination, where Death, no matter what, can't kill one person, lmao.

How can one's luck be this bad man it's not even funny to laugh at anymore, I'm genuinely concerned for the guy lol.

He can have all the bad luck he wants though, he scored big time with Yoshida here, and hey, that drawing is slow steps... though, he doesn't know that xD

Only the second episode and already I am getting tired of the constant parade of bad luck and extreme clumsiness of Yano. Every few minutes he is getting injured. Can they just have slightly longer periods of ordinary reactions between the focus foursome before some "bolt from the blue" hits Yano?
On the upside he has some real drawing skills.

Kiyoko could beat the misery of Tsuyoshi with his love and some eggs! Tsuyoshi's talent for painting is amazing, just I hope his drawing is not haunted or something like that!

@Dreadogastus_F I agree with you.
There's fun to be had with this anime but the bad luck plot device kinda holds it back.
I find myself fast-forwarding parts of the episode.

Another good episode, every episode makes me like the main character a little more. She's just so kind and its really sweet watching Yano and Yoshida slowly grow closer. I was expecting a more comedic anime but the focus on the romance and slice of life has been really fun to watch. i would still love to see more side characters.
