----------------------------------------
Got an adventurous feel from this episode with their cave exploring.

The character chemistry between Kae and Asuma felt a bit awkward at times imo. Not a fan of his brother tbh. He is somewhat similar to Kazuma but also more of a womanizer.

This episode is centered about Mutsumi-senpai.
The treasure hunt was a total dud and it was set-up very elaborately!
Mutsumi's older brother is the mastermind of the treasure hunt! lolz
Mutsumi's older brother has high self-confidence but feels like a girl player to me.
Mustumi's ticked-off to his older brother and declares Serinuma that she's his Kanojo! I think the brother won't fall for that.
4/5.

Ahahahaha Senpai~~~~ It's time for him to understand his feelings. Not sure if it's a good thing or bad thing for others to ask him about his feelings. It's good because it'll be a push for development but it's a bit bad because it's like a some sort of suggestion for Senpai about Serinuma. Oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yuukyan~~~ At first when I hear Senpai's brother voice I was a bit not sure whether it's Yuukyan or not but indeed it is him. At the last part where he's kinda seducing/flirting(?) Serinuma he uses the cool/handsome voice that I've not heard recently until now. σ(≧ε≦σ) ♡

That's right, time for some adventure and romance opportunity between Mutsumi and Serinuma.
And his big bro too, oh boy.

An entire episode focused on Mutsumi the best boy :). At the beginning of the episode, I felt his reactions too forced, but finally it was ok.
Regarding Mutsumi's older brother, even if it's to "help" Asuma, I don't like him

Wow what fun episode, cave exploring and a bit more of fan service. Also the part where Igarashi ask Asuma about how he really feels about serinuma really hit it. I guess its now clear that Asuma does have feelings for Serinuma after all that cave scene and stuff

The surprise of the episode is Asuma's brother coming in and saying that Gender doesn't matter when it comes to love, is really making things more hot. Hope with him that there is a more intimate scenes between the guys and not just with serinuma

Also its really cheating for him to make a move on Serinuma, Thank God Asuma is there to stop him. Looking forward on the next episode on how the others will help protect serinuma from the brother

Yay! It's finally here! Really happy to see Asuma Mutsumi being focused on. Glad this was postponed and other chapters were adapted before this one. Well worth the wait.

(In case you haven't noticed, I'm a big Asuma fan)

I found it absolutely adorable seeing chibi Kae and Asuma being excited at the start of the episode as well. Kae's expressions and enthusiasm made me fall for her as well. She's just too cute and the sounds she makes are great. Asuma's personality shifts quite a bit this episode which was interesting to watch. From being the lovable guy he is, to being terrified, to realizing he might have feelings to his anger with his brother.

4/5- Now that some of my favorite chapters are being adapted, I'm real stoked on whats to come!

The fact senpai understood his feeling this late makes him even more the best guy out of them all, her new look did not make him drool over her on the spot, he viewed her the same way as before.

My favorite part of the episode was when Kazuma was flirting with Serinuma and the view shifts to a falling book, as if it was the cliched reaction from Mutsumi-senpai in shock. But nope! He was just dropping the book onto his brother's head.

Which is kind of representative of this series as a whole. It can almost be viewed as a checklist of all of the rom-com/harem tropes but it tilts the perspective and makes it fresh. How would these situations be viewed by a girl who doesn't necessarily have romantic feelings for any of the boys?

Why hasn't Kae gotten a heart attack from her horny outbursts?

That being said, strong episode, and a lot of development for Senpai. Also his brother is a dick. That's all that is needed to be said.

Senpai is so cute, he didn't even realize that he loves Kae haha But I still think that they should've followed the manga storyline, it would fit better

Mutsumi's brother seemed nice at first but then his true colors showed, can't wait for next episode!

So during this treasure hunt, we learn more about Asuma. This moments he had with Kae in the cave was wonderful. He's starting to realize he has feelings for her. His brother was the one that set up the treasure hunt, but he forgot about it. Kazuma seems like a douche. Asuma standing up for Kae was great. This episode ended with a nice cliffhanger.

Yep, a Mutsumi-focused episode knocks all the previous ones out of the park. I loved him getting excited with Serinuma and starting to think more about how he feels towards her in the cave. His brother acted as one of my favorite plot devices in romance anime, the character who shows interest in one of the main characters in order to help a love interest realize their feelings. Can't wait to see where this goes next!

I like Mutsumi-shenpai and he's obviously the best boy in the entire series. It took him a while to realize his feelings for Kae-chan but I don't want him to act like the other guys. I like him being the cool, older guy who treats Kae sweetly and I don't want him to be rude, forceful or ridiculous like the other guys. He obviously isn't, he's a great character and should remain that way.

His older brother is an asshole. Although, I like that he's bisexual, it's nice seeing some diversity in Anime, it's just that sometimes LGBTQ characters are portrayed as jokes or bad guys.

I think I had heart failure when Senpai's Nii-san bc Yuukyan. He is a shit but I have to love him even though it is wrong to love him. 100% wrong. I'm not rooting for him though...just enjoying him lol. Senpai is still best boy for me.

Senpai is so pure hearted it is hilarious. Like senpai radiating with childish desire to go treasure hunting all the way up to his "love for humanity" lmao.

I loved the episode being focused at him and that bro, clearly he did not have any intentions of doing stuff until he noticed that Senpai flared up. At that moment he started being.........himself. I'm positive he's not doing this out of ill intent but it is still annoying for him to be such an ass. That part in which he pets senpai though, was funny.

Serinuma in otaku mode is amazingly hilarious to watch, and I really never grow tired of it. Also is it my idea or senpai and his bro look distinctively more asian than the rest?

Wait... you can go from highschool student to highschool teacher in 3 years? That means he's had 2 years of post secondary. Wut? But I guess sexually harassing the students gets a pass, so why worry about the fact that he's teaching at 19.

Obviously the best episode yet.

But I'm biased bc imo Mutsumi is best boy!
Not expecting any canon pairings, but I'm hoping they're at least gonna go for Mutsumi as main love interest- especially now that he has an older brother who has been thrown into the mix. Rule of thumb in Shoujo is that the main love interest has a (usually womanizing) older brother who goes after his girl XD

At the same time tho I'm kinda worried...one of the major things this series has going for it as a reverse harem is the fact that unlike many other Shoujo anime, there has been no clear "main guy" so far. More like a toss up of Igarashi and Nana with bits of Mutsumi thrown in and we all know Shinomiya had no chance from the get go.

This was darn hilarious

The series kinda lost it's spark in last 2-3 episodes, but now it's back, this episode had me rolling xD

Love Asuma's brother, his design is cool, VA is cool and his hitting on EVERYBODY is hilarious
Always funny to hear Serinuma and Nishina's fujoshi reactions
