| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Hirotaka's brother...interesting. They don't seem too alike in terms of appearance and personality. The episode was pretty fun to watch especially with the usual lighthearted humor. I still think this show has some of the best character chemistry for this season and still continues to show. This Naoya guy seems to fit in with the crowd. I think he's an interesting addition to the cast overall. |

| Wanting to be mature vs. be kid forever. Did I miss the detail to usual OP, or did I see KajiKaji's character added in OP for the first time? Nice guy working at cafe. After servicing her, it was realized that they know each other. Another couple who is also there thought he's her ex. Sugita-san's character is worried. Main guy joining. Later realized they are brothers. CM this time Everyone to his house again, this time with KajiKaji's character. They try to make him welcome even though he seems like he's not otaku. Sugita-san's character trying to explain about the pair. KajiKaji's character being happy in tear about them together. After ED showing brothers when they were little. 25:05 next. |

| Probably my favorite episode so far!! Some favorite moments - I love how they finally adapted ch 7 and introduced Nao!! He's such a good brother - Nao and Nifuji are totally different. Otaku vs non otaku - So funny how Koyanagi and Kabakura thought Nao was Narumi’s ex - The fruit Frappuccino looks so good!!!! 美味しそう！！ - game night part 2 was awesome!! Funny how Nao is so bad at games unlike Hirotaka |

| How many Evangelion references will this show pull off. I swear i read the whole character page here on MAL but i somehow did not read that those two are brothers, Jesus LOL. |
 |
| This show doesn't get boring. It's nice to have a new character,lol he was even added to the OP. Interaction with Nao was definitely amusing and I wouldn't mind to see more of him.even tho he's a fuckin normie reeeeeee Koyanagi surely doesn't beat around the bush when it's about marking her territory xD |

| Difference between girlfriend and brother poor Nao My favourite one from this season |
 |
| Great episode again with great comedy. Hanako had them theories about the guy from the beginning but it turns out that he's just Hirotaka's younger brother Naoya. That Pattern Blue : Non-Otaku. XDDD For a second I thought Naoya would be secretly insanely good at the game but it turns out he's a complete beginner. The moment Narumi said she was gonna take notes on Hanako and Kabakura's kiss to use in her BL novels was hilarious. The final scene when we realize that Naoya is the most pure hearted one among them all. Kabakura with them sobs. XDD |
 |
| Got to meet Hirotaka's brother in this episode, they seem complete opposites. Nao is really happy for Hirotaka. He's also not an otaku and is a complete beginner at video games, so he's basically a normie. He's a great addition to the cast. |

| This is probably going to be anime of the season/maybe anime of the year for me lmao I love it soooo much. Awesome episode. I'm liking the drama-free approach to things. |

I wanted to comment on Blood Pattern Blue as well :D But what were previous NGE references, I didn't notice them? Orochimaru music playing was also gold. Best episode so far. |
 |
| Hmm having your ears pieced to look cool and try and be more adult like. To think that Narumi would meet an old friend the day she decides to try a new drink though. Its cute seeing both Tarou and Hanako worry over Narumi's relationship with the new guy though. Still his true identity was a shocker. But the younger brother sure is very different to Hirotaka though. The gaming session though sure was fun. Hanako's bold actions sure set things right for the confusion that Tarou caused. Quite the amusing episode with the brother's actions being the funniest. |

| Hirotaka's brother introduced. He is way different from what I though. The comedy in the episode like always was hilarious especially Kabakura trying to be like a father LOL. Younger brother really sucks at gaming, he needs some advice. The misunderstanding scene was pretty funny. Kabakura and Koyanagi interactions are gold, the chemistry is really good. That magic trick in the end LOL. |

|
| Yet again, a very fun episode with the romcom elements being really well handled. This show refuses to keep me bored and I love that. Better than most romcoms I've seen in anime tbh. |
| "I want to be a kid forever." Nifuji knows what's up, that's my life motto as well! I liked this episode. This series isn't overly hilarious or complex, and there isn't really any romantic "development"... but it's very "feel-good", laid back and enjoyable. |
| I am so glad that he is just his brother and not some sort of love interest cuz I feel like that would have fit well also I couldn't help but laugh when he started crying. |
| hey look they finally added other people work you know background characters. that touching moment between kabakura and koyanagi was so touching that they didn't even notice hirotaka right next to them. kabakura's delayed reaction to hirotaka was hilarious. I laughed that narumi wanted to play splatoon but hirotaka just tells her to stick to animal crossing. I loved how everyone freaked out when they found out that nao was a non-otaku. I'm amazed that kabakura never let his guard down around nao but nao's misunderstanding about who narumi was dating was just perfect. kabakura was the mvp of this episode hell he's always the mvp. |
| Fantastic episode again, man this I'm in love with this! It's so fkn relatable and funny. All the references and it's a decent romance also |
 |
| Will "they" appear again to rant against the animation this time? that aside, the episode were really fun, Tsundere couple were a bit worried about Hirotaka's brother being in love with Narumi, but that wasn't the case. Sucks to suck at games lmao |

|
| So far, I am loving this. This story doesn't have elements of romance that I hate like the chase and love rivals. Instead, the main couple start dating by episode two. Also, instead of doing random romantic things, they do otaku things while being dressed as respectable members of society. When I heard Hirotaka's little brother's voice, I got so excited that I had to pause and calm down a little. Being surprised by Kaji Yuuki's voice is one of the best things ever!! |
| Hmm. So in the end the reason to introduce a new character was kinda lame as he's false rival (and he acted more like 14 years old, not 21). It wasn't completely bad episode but one have to kinda wonder what's the point of those interactions and where it all leads to. But he's his brother so I guess it's okay. Still, It would be more interesting if they interacted with some other non-otaku in their work instead. |
| T-T this episode was literally 2 mins long! matheoo41 said: Once again comedy gold. And here I was wondering who is it in the OP. Kabakura being a father figure is so hilarious, but that's a bit to be expected since he's the oldest in the group. Is it time for kids, nudge nudge? omg i was just thinking that I wouldn't mind if Kabakura and Koyanagi had a surprise pregnancy! But something like that would probably only come up in the last episode or something. |

| Danm, such irritating character that Narumi, if we could get justs Kabakura and Hana with some Hirotaka participations during the 23 mninutes would be so good! Kabakura is not the best friend, is the ONLY friend possible. |
| OMG My stomach really hurt because of laughing. This episode is very funny. Kabakura got two misunderstanding. First, to believe that Nao is Narumi's ex. Second, to believe that Nao has feeling to Narumi. (better luck next time, Kabakura !) |

| Uuhh, a new "person" huh? Even the OP has a "change" in it to tell about the episode. And he's a good, caring person for both and Hirotaka. And the Funny MVP for the episode is the caring "father"... Kabakura. xD |

| The Smash Bros part was so relatable. That's always that one kid that's horrible at the game and you don't have the patience to teach him stuff cuz you know it's useless. Thought I can't let that "I though he would turn into the time of person who was fine with being alone" slide. It's kinda putting my rare kind in a negative light. |

| You are not your body, you are your brain, the "self" that emerges from within it. |
| the brother is the adorably sweetest thing...for a grownup lol |
| That brother is too damn cute for his age! Loved it when Kabakura cried! dude is like a dad for Hirotaka. This show really kicks in with the references here and there, for an otaku worker this show is pretty reletable for the most part, its like a daily life of a corporate otaku. I love this show! |
  |
| I was not expecting an ototo..well overall good episode |
 |
| Is the brother gay? That cry was suspicious |
| shit, why i always forget the airing time of this:( good episode though, this is as far as i read the manga, pretty much identical. simple and fun misunderstanding, doesnt stirred up way to long, Kabakura and Koyanagi really proactive about this. this kind of romcom didn’t need any love quarrel involving third person, it’ll only make people mad, even though i’d like to see one:( it seems fun i guess |
 |
| Eva references, what a good episode |
 |
| I was worried the show was heading into love triangle territory, but props for subverting my expectations! Nao is a good little bro. Much better episode than last week's. |
| I smiled through the whole episode! Kabakura best dad. I like the brother, he's sweet! although I wouldn't want to be teammates with him when playing LOL |
| This is actually really good, enjoying all the episodes so far and love the characters! |
| Nao episode! Nao episode! He's the most precious child in the universe! It was adorable, every second of this ep. Nao is the best-est boy. |
