THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
So Neji actually pays a visit to Lilina's home. Her mother seems nice.

Turns out Misaki is also there. I guess he should be more than surprised.
Lilina and Misaki has an amusing character chemistry imo so far. Nisaka is like the foil of Neji in this show tbh, very different from him.

Seems the character relationship between Nisaka and Misaki is on Neji's mind.

That deep kiss though

Since the start of this anime there seem to be hints suggesting that Nisaka and Misaki are marriage partners, wether it's true or not will be interesting to see tho.
It's clear they don't like each other tho they seems somewhat hostile towards each other.
Nisaka liking Yukari also seems like an interesting development which makes me wonder how this anime will turn out when it ends.

I honestly didn't expect the gay but I'm even more curious as to how things are gonna evolve from now on, also there are not a lot of "lies" right now but I expect them to slowly start trusting each other less and less.

That was a really good episode.

Looks like I'm totally rooting for Ririna at this point. While I do like Takasaki as well, I'd still prefer Ririna getting together with Neji. Her reaction when she saw Neji and Takasaki about to kiss and after sending Takasaki off home was so pure. <3

The kissing scene at school was really really good. xD
The soundtrack this episode was amazing, like people have mentioned in previous episodes, it really does feel similar to Kuzu no Honkai since it's the same composer or rather the usage in the anime itself feels similar.

I was pretty sure that Nisaka is Takasaki's legal partner and I still think that the possibility of that is very high but I totally did not expect him to be gay. Talk about plot twists. XD

I KNEW IT!
I KNEW HE LIKED YUKARI!
Now this is interesting...since for a homossexual this system is even more complicated. And I'm actually feeling really really sorry for him. Because in a "normal" setting, if the boy he likes doesn't like him back, oh well, he could find another one. But, in this setting he is not allowed to do so, he HAS to marry a girl.
I'm probably going to pick the manga now that I'm interested in how the society works with this kind of system...Probably there is lots and lots of cheating.

Yukari having it good, two waifus and one husbando.
And I guess Nisaka (?) is going to be paired with Misaki. Oh boi.

This episode had some good OSTs and I enjoyed it quite a bit, except for the scene where Nejima and Takasaki should kiss in front Sanadas eyes, yeah it's weird to kiss in front of others, I can understand that, but Nejima acted really like a pussy, usually I'm able to endure such behaviour to a certain degree, this time it annoyed me, tho.

Takasaki and Nisaka beeing engaded seems like the most plausible idea, but knowing that Nisaka is into Nejima turns this into a pretty complicated situation.

This was a fairly good episode, in all honesty, though it wasn't as good as the amusing second episode. Didn't expect another twist of tale here with Nisaki seemingly having a crush(?) on Nejima as well. Really beats me how all three of them have fallen for an average guy like Nejima but I don't really mind it. It will be interesting to see how the show progresses from here on.

This anime is steadily becoming a really interesting show, I'll try to wait till this anime is over though, because now I really want to read the manga. And that kiss, I mean, I thought the kiss in the first episode was awesome, but this one really does take the cake.

Neji visited Lilina's home and was surprised to see Misaki. She was surprised too. The kissing scene at school was really good. Nisaka saw it. I didn't expect him to be gay. Got to see how him and Neiji met each other.

I thought from the beginning that the idea behind this series really seemed to ignore the existence of GLBT people, but I'm glad to see that they are addressing that as well. This just bumped my rating up a notch. Not because Nisaka x Nejima is a cute couple (they totally would be!) but because it makes for more realism and plot development. Also glad to see more growth in Ririna's feelings. While I think she's still a ways from loving Nejima, the seed is growing. I will be surprised if Misaki's assigned partner is anyone but Nisaka.

And yes... that kiss was one of the best anime kisses I've seen. Passionate, but tender... Not over done. It was a based in love, not lust.

Nisaka kissing Yukari was in Chapter 4.5 of the manga I like Lilana encouraging Nejima and Misaki These two have a better relation than in the manga where Misaki was avoiding Nejima. Most of the manga readers thought that Nisaka and Misaki were marriage partners but this has never been confirmed The only thing that has been confirmed is that Nejima is mistaken in believing that Nisaka and Misaki like each other

Holy crap, so Yuusuke is actually gay or swings both ways? Either way, not a twist I saw coming from miles away. Certainly left me speechless for a moment, lol.

This episode puts Yukari in awkward position, given his kiss with Misaki, his relationship with Lilina and the revelation that Nisaka harbors feelings for him. What I like about this show is that there are no "bad guys", so to speak. Everyone has their own reasons for doing what they do and come off as sympathetic and likable despite their circumstances.

WTF? Are they trying to butcher the manga or something?

The kiss actually happened...

At least they did the following one in the school right.. but, the heck was that BL fantasy fanservice dream with Nisaka?! There was nothing like that in the manga. If anything Nisaka hated him for a quite while after he saw them:

...and they also switch succession of some scenes in the anime. A little things, maybe, but if anything doesn't make sense from now on, blame "creative" individuals at Liden. And it even didn't flow better, in fact, quite contrary.

Really think people are better off with manga...

Lots of complicated feelings and emotions are swirling around in this episode! Lilina is starting to feel something for Nejima but is unable to admit it to herself at this point. Also we see Nejima and Takasaki kiss again but the emotion behind it is different this time and Nejima says something to that effect in the scene. BUT BIGGEST OF ALL!!! We are getting some boys love action going between Nisaka and Nejima SHOCKER! The intensity is sure to kick into high gear over the next few episodes so fasten your seatbelts and get ready for one hell of a ride!

I won't understand comparing this anime to Nisekoi-like series. Ever. I mean, how can anyone even came to this conclusion?
Nisekoi was all about 'confess, or not, oh I'm too embarrassed'. This one, even if it's too much prolonged - not even close to that setting.
Great episode again.

PS. I don't know the manga at all, but I just have an idea how it could be developing. MC and his friend will announce that they are a gays (dunno if it's even possible in this world), same goes to main girls. Then happy ending will be possible (if Ririna would fall in love with MC-kun's friend). That scene in the forest at the end of OP is leading me to this conclusion (mainly).

Pretty good episode.
MC a bit too passive to my liking. Takasaki is always leading the kiss.
But I can understand the reluctance to kiss in front of Lilina,. One it is awkward to do that in front of people and 2nd she's is future wife rather they like it or not.

I also understand where Takasaaki is coming from. This genetic compatibility is supposed to be accurate, so if it is true than Lilina was meant for him and not her. Which is sad. While it may be genetically compatible it doesn't mean it HAS to be.

Also damn that was a hot kiss, hotter than the first. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° )
Also his friend seem to be homosexual and likes him. Takasaki probably knows. And his friend clearly knows he likes her. And this is probably why they don't like each other.

Exactly it's nothing similar. All of the characters are way different than those from Nisekoi and it's alot more dramatic.

I like how they never question the society or try to find a solution like leaving the country and further lowering birth rates, which would be the result of such a ridiculous law. The real problem is that if anime is portraying men accurately, like Neji, then they're all giant pussies and they need to work on that.

Nope, it was added as fanservice much later, and it wasn't meant to be shown now, in the beginning.
That's why it was labeled as bonus chapter, not regular one. It shouldn't be in the anime at all. Not to mention it really didn't fit in time-wise as it happened at different time.

Thumbs up for including lgbt characters. Nisaka seems very cute and cool. They would make a cute couple. That classic liking-my-(possibly)straight-friend angst is really sad though.
Misaki really needs to sort her shit out tbh. Another interesting episode, I am really liking this show so far.

I mean, if it's a just a bonus scene in the manga and "it shouldn't be in the anime at all" than it's placement in the adaptation is of little concern, no?

I also assume this way of revealing he was gay was much more impactful than whatever the manga did.

I mean, since you receive the notice at the age of 16 I assume they simply don't let you leave until you serve your duty as a citizen of the country (A.K.A. produce a baby).

You can say what you like, but it got adapted, so it obviously got approval to be done... Not that I care either way tbh. It's so obvious he's bisexual. You don't need to be a rocket science to see this in the manga's later chapters.
