| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- First half of this episode felt meh imo. However, I did like the character connection between Haruto and Mio. It feels like the two has some quiet chemistry. Of course, there's character moments between Mio and Eita. I find their relationship to be a bit awkward tbh. Not sure how I feel about their relationship development but I hope it works out between the two. The confession~ |
 |
| It went well for the most part but during the ending it went wrong for the boys. Izumi was nearly there but at the final moment he didn't confess his feelings, it wasn't the right time to do so. Souma on the other hand was trying to hard. I have to say the Morikawa is just like a mother with her behaviour. |
| The conversation between Haruto and Natsume was hard to watch, knowing what she feels for him. Still I see it more as a young girl's crush, rather than actual love. Ena instead seems to like Eita more than just as a person heh. Don't know if she is aware of it though, probably not yet; at least she is not dense so that's a plus. Haruto and Hatsuki look so cute together, I hope that ship will sail at least (even though for now it was sunk without mercy). It's probably the first side character's love story that I care more about than the MC's. The ending was quite sad overall, wonder how the two "couples" will face each other next ep. |
| Well Natsume's dog is awesome..... Able to read his owner thought and understand human language .... 10/10 would get one if it is available somewhere. XD |
 |
| It was nice to see one guy show some more emotions and the other one shut the hell up for a while. Can't say I like any of the characters very much but at least now I'm starting to care what will happen next. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| Feelsbad. Ena generally seems like she has deeper feelings for Izumi, if only he wasn't so stuck on entrance exams-chan. Kinda sad for Souma getting rejected but that was to be expected tbh given Morikawa's character and their interactions |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| Haruto being chased by the dog was amusing. During his conversation with Mio, it appears she has some feelings for him. He confessed to Hatsuki, but he got rejected. RIP. I wonder how they would face each other next episode. Ena says she likes Eita as a person, but I think there's more than that. |
 |
| After all that hard work, in the end Souma got rejected. Probably won't happen but I want to see Komiya x Izumi ship. Izumi was close in confessing to Natsume. |
 |
| I am really glad that things went the way it did. I mean love or even a crush does not come easy at all. Sometimes we do not even know what the results are. I'm glad it did not come out easy since it is not easy at all. Too bad Haruto must've put in a lot of work from a home run hit, to getting used to dogs, and later getting the alone time, to confess. Only to be politely rejected or so. |
| God i wish i was an anime character, apparently the only thing you need to do for the girl to fell for you is to pick up her eraser from the ground That ending tho. But i'm sure there is something that has to do with Natsume that made Morikawa said what she said. |
 |
| I got confused with the whole "good luck" and "good luck to come" being incorporated into the confession... |
    |
| Well Eita put up with enough bullshit and finally decided to call her out and then leave, next episode should be intersting ;p BlackstarFallen said: Haruto being chased by the dog was amusing.

Ena says she likes Eita as a person, but I think there's more than that. no you dont think there's more than that u want there to be more than that and that would be weird for a anime thats going for a realistic portrayal like this, she has no reason to like him, not yet anyway |
| Very emotional episode wow. I wonder if she rejected Soma cause she knows about Mio's feelings for him? Doubt it though. Probably because she's moving |
| New years, camera girl saying she likes eita's personality XD Haruto gets turned down by Morikawa and eita almost bearing all his feelings but stops midway. LilacChild said: I got confused with the whole "good luck" and "good luck to come" being incorporated into the confession... IMO the good luck to come means right now is bad luck which has to do with haruto's confession but that's actually good luck for eita since he can be with mio who's good luck to come might means she might get a chance with haruto later. |
 |
| Well of course things wouldn't smoothly. It's still in the first third of the series. |
 |
| Still wondering what Haruto will do after this. Morikawa is like she is not interested in love life. Izumi, so lame. Komiya best girl. I said in the discussion of the very first episode that I would like to see Komiya x Izumi. And I am still rooting for these two (though there is no chance). Haruto feels so bad. He is such a good guy. He doesn't deserve that. |
 |
| tfw he had balls and confessed 4 episodes in instead of at the end of the series just to get rejected. Give this man a hug. |
 |
| This was a pretty great episode on the whole, with lots of interesting developments for all the main cast, although it's a bit unclear what Haruto will do now that he's been rejected. Also, Natsume fell in love with him over an eraser? Come on, put a bit more effort into it than that; this show has shown elsewhere that it can be bothered to put effort in, so that lazy bit of back story for that particular relationship was surprising. The development for Komiya and Eita's relationship this episode also made it a lot harder for me to decide how I want things to end up overall: damn you love polygons! |

|
| I told myself I would drop this if we didn't get the confession this episode. Well, we got it, but RIP best boy. His crush was kind of lame anyway as a character, so maybe it was for the best she rejected him. |
| :3 |
| Nice to see Yoriko getting the respect she deserves from her harem of starry-eyed kouhai. That aside, I couldn't contain my laughter at "That girl in Band Club would never beat Mio." She's better in every single aspect imaginable. With ease. Glad she rejected this chump, though. All of his interactions with her in this episode were trash. Especially the way he ran her off when those girls popped up. If he hadn't yelled out that he loved her, she would have probably been convinced of the opposite. He's gonna cry in the car. |

| the photo girl (Komiya??) is slowly becoming my favorite character. and oh my, the boys getting it rough in the second half. also i really hate the bitchy overprotective friend characters |
| And the fun things are over. Here comes the drama train. I called it, right before the rejection came. It was spelled out for us: Morikawa gave out signs she's not interested in anyone, she barely even knows Haruto. For her he was just a random guy from school until days ago. But I'm still afraid for her: Natsume's peers don't look like nice people, I hope they won't bully her for hurting Natsume's crush's feelings by the virtue of existing. |

But i'm sure there is something that has to do with Natsume that made Morikawa said what she said. |
| I'm pretty upset that Morikawa gave him the wrong idea, she made it sound like she likes him, too when she talked to him for the whole episode. Not sure where this will go now, i'm sorry for both guys. |
| Nooooooo! Haruto, my boy! D: Ena is not as annoying as I thought. I kind of like her more than Mio now. |
 |
| I needed time but now I'm on board ... Ena Komiya best girl !!! About Natsume, I thought that maybe she had lost her feelings towards Haruto over time but no, it seems she is still stuck in the past. Good that Eita almost confessed, at least now she may look at him "properly" (if she understood what he meant! I hope so). Morikawa rejection. It makes sense from what we saw (dense, apparently immune to love feelings) but maybe there's more than that. I wonder. Still enjoying the atmosphere of this anime. Where will this us lead ? One week to wait again. |

Not sure where this will go now, i'm sorry for both guys. She didn't meant to; he was kind to her, which she appreciated, but that's about it. It's not like people are forbidden to make friends with the opposite gender. You could say that everyone else has been in clues about the whole thing but it's not like they did spell it out to Morikawa. Plus she's in a different clique from the others (except for Inui). |
| Sorry, due to licensing limitations, this signature is unavailable in your region. |
| Getting interesting. I assume Ena Komiya will join the "battle", don't know about her chances but will be rooting for her. |
 |
| Damn, I wish the whole series was out already so that I could grind. Good stuff. It hurt seeing Izumi at the end |
 |
| Honestly, best episode so far. Thanks to the simplistic music, monotonous voice acting, and dim visuals I had no trouble catching up on some sleep. In all seriousness though; it felt like there was an inkling of drama beginning to culminate, then it was all but extinguished by the end of the episode. I still think that this show could get better, but my expectations are low. |
 |
| Sooo, Haruto gets shot down (not because he has no chance but possibly Morikawa knows that Natsume is in love with him). Izumi indirectly gets shot down but Ena also indirectly kinda told him that she likes him. The love arrows are all over the place lol. It was a good episode, the pacing got a bit better. |
| Decent episode with some nice and unexpected development,wonder how the boys want to come back from that. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Can we stop with the eraser based romances! I still liked the episode though. |

pgmhecateii said: Tomoebi said: Aw, I was gonna say that...like in last season's Koi to Uso. Can we stop with the eraser based romances! I still liked the episode though. I've kinda experienced something similar. Though I was a little bit interested in the guy before he gave me a pencil...and I was the one who asked him anyway...lol. Actually thinking about it, that may be the very point that this show will highlight. For both Natsume and Haruto their crushes both started from something very shallow, (picking up eraser, playing trumpet to support team). Neither crush came from each actually KNOWING the object of their crush. |
 |
| Considering how boring I found the first episode, I'm really into this now. All the characters feel so real and likeable. Photograph girl is my favourite. I find her attitude really refreshing, and tbh I ship her with MC more than I do with Natsume. Soma is a cutie. I wonder what her reasons for rejection were? Also what is with people falling in love over erasers in anime lol? This happened in Koi to Uso as well and it baffles me :') |
| 'I love you because you're you. I'm happy that you're whole. I don't care if there are sides of you that I don't know, or don't like. If that's who you are, that's fine. As long as you're whole, that's enough for me.'-Kouko Kaga |
| Best episode so far probably. Highlights of the episode were definitely the final moments. Poor guys. Wonder where this will go now. |
  |
| Damn, pretty good episode. That was tense as hell towards the end though. Haruto gets flat out rejected, which was kind of expected at this point. I wonder if we'll get any reason on her end. Eita somewhat confesses how he fells, but chickens out and goes home before giving the full spiel. Not really sure how these relationships will fall by the end of this. On the bright side, Ena has solidified her position as best girl. |
| I'm actually enjoying this anime.. Pretty good episode so far.. But I think Morikawa's rejection is too obvious from her expression when Soma confessed.. Probably her reason would be about family or stuff like that~ |
 |
