so, the young boy warmed up her in her fertile period, and she thought that the best option was to go to bed with the friendzone man.
And the Friendzone man was so without attitude that she almost had to jump in his lap.

good episode! 4.5/5

her mind is so fucked up! I would run from her like the devil runs from the cross.
Maybe 10 years and still mourning the dead boy. It's not love, it's insane!!

I felt as the show keeps progressing I am finding shinako less likable. I like how this episode sets the stage for Uozami delving into a deeper passion within photography. I am starting to be more invested in Uozami's career rather than shinako's feelings for the other characters.

Basically what Shinako is saying is : (Love me and be pushy and cringy to me so I can move on), basically like a rebound relationship.
She rejected him, and as soon as there were signs he started to move on, she came back with this? Seems selfish to me...
Haru deserves better, why is he leading my baby on then? Ugh
They all feel the same adjust to the pain..like tears in the rain..

Really liked this development actually. Don't think Rikuo fits Haru just how Shinako doesn't fit Rou; the maturity difference is just too much. Rou is still being super clingy as well even though he said he could wait.

Even though Shinako not getting over Yuu is a red flag, and Rikuo usually being wishy-washy when it comes to relationships and his career, I still think she fits Rikuo the best in the end. Though I'm not sure it means much, I really liked the shot of Shinako looking at Rikuo as he walks away with his suit and camera; she's realizing that he's starting to get more ambitious. I hope he starts to make more big moves on her seeing that he's getting more serious about photography.

I'm gonna be pissed if Shinako ends up with Rou as the substitute for her dead crush. The solution for her isn't to fall for his younger brother. She'll never be able to move on.

Rikuo x Shinako is the way to go.

This series is still low-key a harem.

Still don't understand the hate for Shinako-sensei. Easily the most developed character.

People are just too attached to the "manic pixie dream girl" concept of Haru. You know you can like both right?

hate both, shinako might as well dig his grave up and suck his dick, haru is too much of a weirdo, Rou's retarded, i mean can you trust a guy that has a fucking PAPER clip in his ear. the only person with some brains is the m.c, and still he's stupid for falling for that gloomy ass bitch.

I am liking the dynamics of this series is shaping up althought I still am a bit confused on the direction this series will take. This is slice of life at its finest, with characters a bit hesitant to find a path and stuff. But also doesn't make it for much drama and a bit bland toward the audience which is why sometimes is hard to watch this anime. Is not something that catch you as much or if it does, you still can't decide if the characters are good or toxic or just will disapear in the wind without major development.

I don't really feel the drama overall. Best girl was still Rikuo's ex-girlfriend. And for Haru that other photographer.

the ending actually just shows that Haru couldn’t just kill Shinako and Rikou's relation, instead she just being killed! Woah.

an amazing job they did while introducing Rikou's ex gf, who basically doesn’t wait. Here, Shinako wants to wait, for someone to pull her.

Another good sceneplay was when Rikou and Shinako were having drinks. There were drinks, with ice cubes,in front of them. Rikou told Shinako not to let the negative thoughts eat her up. But Shinako said, "No," (in the same scene)"I didn’t want to talk about that" (the later scene) Later, Rikou just bite up the ice cubes, but Shinako doesn’t.

This episode visually and with the dialogues tells about the characters feelings. Amazing.

Good episode as always.

Shinako is opening up and being more honest with her feelings. She even invited Rikuo to her home. Good development for her.

New ED is quite nice though I still prefer the first one.

This episode or should I say, so far, it has been really frustrating. Shinako is essentially taking advantage of both Rou and Uozumi to escape from what she truly needs to deal with. Its frustrating because its unreal how real this is to real life. Having personally gone through what all the characters have, its frustrating to see it come to play again. Maybe I am not making any sense but I don't know what it is, its frustrating seeing the way Shinako acts. Its also frustrating how Uozumi is unable to decipher who is clearly there for him. I guess its frustrating because all the mistakes of the characters have once been done by me and seeing them make the same mistake reminds me that there is always something else that can be done but is not... Someone help...? Would anyone also know if there would be a difference in the anime and manga? I heard the manga had a really frustrating conclusion especially after 18 years of running.

Haru is growing on me more and more with each passing episode, she's soooo adorable.

Like I thought Rou's gonna get super annoying from now on, what a shame I liked the guy sigh.

Eh?Eh? Shinako's finally developing or realising her feelings for Rikuo huh, seems like the romantic drama's about to start. Hope things dun get too messy causes I really love this show so far and dun want some shit drama to ruin this show.

So Shinako invites Uozumi inside for what???

If its just a chat and coffee then Haru still has a chance - anything sexual and it's going to get really messy.

Shinako puts such a downer on everything and I'm sure it's Haru that's pushing the positive changes in Uozumi.

This episode was more exciting and enjoyable than other episodes.
But there is something I do not understand why does everyone in the series fall in love with their old friend?
Do not you think that a little overdone, the triangle of love has turned into an octagon.
Also loving the dead brother's girlfriend came a bit too grim but this is Anime xd

After all, I hope the winner of the love war will be Haru #TeamHaru

Agreed, although I dont think that Rikuo has to like Haru just because she follows him everywhere.

And Rou Kuns family are the worst, they should have released Shinako from here guilt feelings rather than let her make their meals, regardless, she is the worst also for how shes behaved and created this entire mess with her dishonesty and selfishness. Cant stand her.

Maybe it's the earring.

Shinako suggesting Rikuo borrow some of Rou's bde, ok.

And Haru isn't entitled to Rikuo's time or attention just because she has a crush. Jesus.


She isn't, but then neither is brat brother entitled to anything either. If his family had any decency they would release Shinako from her self created demons and try to force her to move on. Not let her make them dinner.

The narration is very Shinako-centric, in which the classic stylistic features of the purely romantic anime flow under the eyes of the spectator. The plot shows how life goes on both for the protagonists and for the co-stars, in the form of social change and personal life choices and all this gives rise to a psychological parenthesis that in turn triggers a relapse in the interpersonal personalities of the characters . All this is so well studied that it makes the episode engaging and at the same time makes it clear how good they were in making it. Excellent drawings and animations, the same goes for backgrounds. Gracious the new ending, I can't wait to see the next one. Personally I always cheer for Haru, banzai !!!

Forget "Tower of God" (which seriously does not impress me at all) - this is easily the best show of the season for me. The characters are so well-rounded, the animation is great and the storytelling is wonderful. It was interesting when Shinaku observes that Rou has grown so much - here is hoping that she will finally notice him but that woman really doesn't know how to let go and move on. I will always cheer for dear Haru though. She deserves so much better.

I don't disagree about Rou. I just find him more tolerable than Haru. He's gonna learn the hard way that he can't have everything he wants. I don't even know what to say about Shinako. Sometimes I feel sorry for her and other times, I don't understand her at all.


Shinako is just selfish. If you can't move on dont ask a guy who likes you to keep doing things for you. Because she comes across so demure people seem to think she's being nice.

Haru is a bit of a pain but she likes Rikou, doesn't demand anything but his time and understands that shes not entitled to anything. I find Rou to be full of entitlement, she loved his brother, not him, and yet he is showing up and harassing Rikou at his job and him and his dad let Shinako cook meals for them rather than encouraging her to get over it. Rou is using his brother's death to guilt Shinako into being with him. What hes trying to do is totally unreasonable.

Rikuo is oblivious and Shinako tries to act mature, even though she isn't. Haru makes me wonder why she's still interested in a guy that does nothing for her. Rou is a dreamer, plain and simple.

(Reading this, it sounds harsh. But i don't mean it that way. I'm loving this anime and I love how complex de characters are).

As i watch it more,
the more i realized that Rikuo is not worthy for Haru its just one sided love. She givin it all for him and this guy just didnt appreciate it.

I wonder how this RikuoxHaru gonna develop we only half way on this so its early for me to make assumptions.

Ah finally, we're back on track. In the last few episodes everything is focused on the side characters. Uozumi and Shinako didn't get much chance to talk or meet with each other. I was thinking that it's fine this way. It's still good even if it takes time and the story is quite relaxing. Especially episode 6, my new favourite character in the series just left....and all of that happened in one episode... sigh.

I didn't expect things to turn out this way. I guess what everyone's saying is true. There's no use in waiting, you have to go and get it yourself. And so, the moment Uozumi's been waiting for has come. Time to get a lil bit serious here. I'm not sure what'll happen but at least he finally took the first step into this game.

That ED though... it was very good. I was wondering if they'll change it (or add an opening song) sometime later. I honestly didn't like the first ED, at all. But this one is kinda good. Pretty sure it was sayuri.... but i might be wrong. I didn't listen much of her song either.

Good episode overall, i like it.

Reading the manga after watching this, I feel that Haru's a lot closer to Uozumi in the manga and it actually is implied that Uozomi has some kind of feelings for Haru too. It's still a good adaptation but I think I'm going to end prefering the manga.

Yeah, I thought the drama was pretty on point up to this episode. Rou's tantrum at the beginning came out of nowhere, Shinako's reactions were weird (like if I kept seeing my dead gf in her little sister I wouldn't have anything to do with them). Hope it doesn't escalate in the wrong direction.

First thing first, congrats Rikuo, at last, you had another opportunity to make a great move on your job future. And Rou, hey Shounen what were you doin??? After child play aggresive Haru, its enough with the childish character. And then Rou do that??? Shit, boy, why??? You just made Shinako gave another chance to Rikuo. And she like that aggresive play? Lmao girl. This shit was a complex drama. No kidding.

I pretty much hate every character in this, except for Haru and Rikuo's Ex (who was only there for one episode and whose name I don't even remember, but she was still better than most other characters).

This is getting more and more disappointing. Which is a real shame, I had high expectations before going into this show.

Even though Shinako needs someone to push her so that she can move on from Yuu, I feel like Rou is a bit too pushy and impatient with his moves which kinda irritates me about him. Glad that Shinako opened up to Rikuo and even invited him in.

Well, if you're frustrated with something, Rou - it's hard to understand too much, what you wanna really, when you say so much things at once..
Haru is loyal to Rikuo.. Damn man is too lucky with something he doesn't want.. Well, either way, appreciation for Haru, how much she's putting and on regular basis to keep meeting him..
Well, I personally not that interested in the PTSD after death story, or how you'd call it.. But this anime, really, already gave me plenty enough.. Episodes 1, 5 and 6 were too good.. So even if whole other anime will be shit - it's alright, I guess.. ;D I mean, sometimes anime are all enjoyable.. But there aren't anything special in them, or not to the huge level.. But if anime gave me something - it's already plenty something.. Sometimes.. ;P
Yeah, I don't like that woman Shinako too much.. Oh well.. Maybe it'll change.. Or if not - then not.. There are other characters.. ;P

Another good episode. The new ending theme makes me think that Shinako and Rikuo will get together. Which at this point is expected. I mean Rikuo has never shown romantic interest toward Haru, she's just trying to force it. The way he's behaving suggests that he sees Haru to be a bit childish and her insistence on romance is somewhat annoying to him.

At least that development would explain the rather low score for a series that's so far been good, as obviously a lot of commenters are fans of Haru.

As for Shinako's trauma and whether her behaviour is healthy... I don't know. For sure clinging to the memory of a dead boy isn't healthy, and only now she's making steps toward living her own life. And as she said here, it's like she's been using it as an excuse long after she should have been over the whole thing. It can really happen. This is not so much about a dead lover, but about her fear of life, and she's just using the one excuse that everyone around her finds acceptable. I get that many people prefer Haru's type, but to me Shinako is currently the character with more development, background, and depth. Even if I haven't experienced what she's gone through, I can understand where she's coming from, whereas Haru is still pretty much the same she was in episode 1, the manic pixie.
