Actually if anyone causes trouble I think it'll be Mishima - she could quite easily turn into a bunny-boiler as she's already shown stalker tendencies and knows Sayu is interested in her man.....

I've read the first two volumes of the LN and they'll reach the end of that in another 1-2 episodes so they're going a quite a pace - there's going to be some drama next week......




glad that you stuck with it!!

People are jumping the gun all over the place. It is going very fast, as if they are trying to finish it in one series.

people are looking at this as if it is a romcom, where everyone is trying to win the Yoshida Cup. But the story is meant to be about a damaged youngster and how her past has affected her. Whether Gotou and Yoshida get together isn't the main issue here.

People saying Gotou is "sus" or "evil" lmao.

I watched the same thing as you guys and I don't know anything about the LN or manga and I didn't get that feeling from her at all. She explained why she did what she did, even if it was questionable, and Yoshida was fairly understanding.

What do people think Gotou is going to do?


It's honestly beyond me how quick everyone is already jumping to conclusions like comparing her to Mami, calling her a manipulative bitch etc. hilarious. And all of that only because she told a lie (not the best you can come up with sure), which she admitted and everyone doesn't believe a single thing she says like her being a virigin for some reason. I can see her being one if she put work above everything else or maybe she is more shy than we think, definitely there is more to her, she has no reason to lie about that anyway.

I understand having doubts, but the hate is ridiculous considering she didn't do anything bad yet. Also many apparently forgot that she says she's been interested in him for a long time, which makes complete sense when she tells him in ep. 2 that Yoshida is the only person she can be herself around. If i'm being honest i didn't pick up anything bad from her expressions at all (neither in the OP song) which is always too obvious. Glad i found atleast one person who thinks similarly and isn't like "OmG wHaT a BiTcH" lol

Gotou a virgin that never had a chance? If you want to pander, then make it please less blatant lol Yoshida also get's praised as good guy at every given opportunity.

The meeting between her and Sayu was bound to happen. Time to compare these cupsizes live.

Was an enjoyable episode again, Asami's introduction was the best part. Mishima took the biggest L.


In that regard, I think Gotou is not an I-cup, but actually bigger, I can't tell, sometimes the animation is inconsistent with their size. I don't know much about foreign bra sizes, though.

Loving how much discussion this anime generates. The best side character made her debut! I am just a manga reader, so Gotou is a mystery to me. I think they overdid the I-cup focus thing. Few times were enough to portray Yoshida's fascination and her suggestive body language.

The flashbacks are pointing at the cause for Sayu's fall into despair? Looks like the opening also hints at something.

So, is anyone gonna talk how Yoshida is just ok with being emotionally manipulated and lied to by Gotou? Or how Sayu just let's a random coworker she knows for literally less than a day waltz into their home and pry in on Yoshida? Or that said coworker talks about Sayu like she knows her for years, when she knows next to nothing about her?
Writing quality went really down in this episode, characters are acting dumb just because it's convenient for the story, to generate drama and pull at heart strings.

Everyone is in harem mode! And, when it comes down to it, who might understand Sayu's situation, Yoshida or Gotou or Mishima? Some people have elevated Yoshida into some kind of God. But it took a female to give him a warning in this episode, and he didn't seem to be particularly prepared for it, despite all the rationalising he was doing in his head.

I think you either like Sayu or hate her, there is no in-between. I personally really like her and thus those flashbacks at the end of the episode really startled me and made me worried about her. It feels as though she had concealed some trauma from her past and, being alone and feeling lonely again triggered those memories. I can't wait for next week's episode, hoping we get to know more about her past. In any case, she's on a good path to become happier, first she found Yoshida-san, a guy who finally isn't taking advantage of her and now she's made a friend (presumably the first in a long time).

On a different note, Gotou-san's behaviour made me concerned; while it doesn't feel like she's lying, it's still hard to believe that she'd be a virgin, at that age and with those sizable boobs. Anyway, I don't worry about her overly much, but Yoshida-san ought to be careful with her. Furthermore, it's strange how everybody so far has accepted our main duo's relationship so easily. I don't know if it's poor writing or people irl would really be that open to a 26 y/o guy living with a 17 y/o chick.


I don't think it is unrealistic that she is a virgin. We have no background about her other than what the anime shows. Maybe she hadn't enough time while getting her education/advancing her career. I maybe can be salty about that because people often judge people with big breasts and assume that because you have big boobs or body with curves, you are a slut. I experienced that and it is awful.

Sorry for the rant, I don't mind judging her by her lies and the way acts, I am too a bit suspicious of her, but because of her body it is a bit skeevy. Also I hope I wasn't too rude!


Wait, people hate Sayu? Outrageous! Sayu and Yoshida are easily the most likeable characters! She is just a sweet girl with some talent for poor decision making, though, and I am happy that she finally found a good place to live with a reasonable person who encourages her to be better. I hope they show more about her past, because I am curious to know what made her take a drastic decision. My girl deserves the world, and to be protected too.

"Baito o sa sete kudasai."

Last week was an amazing episode, 30 seconds was so killing me. Yoshida and Sayu are getting better, in a mental sense after long debate in the previous episode. Sayu didn't want to depend on Yoshida, Sayu tries to work part time (arubaito) I don't know how Sayu started thinking that sleeping with a guy can solve the problem but yeah, Sayu is now trying to get arubaito, so that she does not sell herself.

It seems like living in the same house with a guy when that guy isn't your boyfriend is very suspicious. Asami was really suspicious, was Yoshida a good person? The moment when Asami and Yoshida that night clarified Yoshida's relationship with Sayu, However Asami asked about the true relationship between Yoshida and Sayu.

After knowing about Yoshida and Sayu's relationship, now Yoshida is on a Yakiniku date with Gotou. For some reason, Gotou expressed his feelings to Yoshida, didn't Gotou reject Yoshida? "Watashi ga Yoshida-kun no koto sukidakara yo" damn nice kokuhaku, milf de best.

Alright, this makes me surprised, Are you kidding me? GOTOU STILL VIRGIN? WTF... Somehow I feel that Sayu is more experienced on the bed, idk why... But Gotou still virgin is so awesome, how?

Virgin vs lil bi**h




If Gotou's intentions are genuine, I'll also genuinely be rooting for her and Yoshida. She doesn't have to be a virgin even, because there are way more important traits when considering whether two people would be good for each other, altho' lying about that would be a bit meh as it'd look like she's just doing it to try & get him more interested, and if she did, I'm expecting Yoshida to scold her some.

During their convo in ep 4, I loved how despite being into her, he stood up for himself, and wanted her to feel like he did & she had a good response/reaction.

So if she's genuinely looking for a good guy which Yoshida definitely is, then I'm all for her. As of this ep I'm leaning towards YES since I'm thinking a woman like her could've gotten with someone by now if she wanted, and someone in a higher position than her rather than someone who's her employee, but you never know ~ we'll see.

Not sure why people are reacting violently on assuming someone's persona based on what the show has shown. I mean people did that in Rental Kanojo saying mami is a bitch on ep 1 (which she turned out to truly be one), people also did that with Akane from Kuzu no Honkai, same thing with the Tachibana sisters in Domestic na Kanojo.

tl;dr
people call it when they see it. for now gotou is under bad light. will it change later on? maybe. only time will tell.

Asami can be a great friend for Sayu, upon first meeting she already noticed the fake smiles Sayu put on her face and knows that there's something troubling her. I also liked that Asami and Yoshida hit it off quite well for a first meeting too. Asami knows that Sayu is in good hands with him. Hope to see her regularly.

Gotou however... Too many alarm bells man. If there's one thing I hate, is that you confess your feelings to someone and you get rejected cause "I've already been dating someone for 5 years" and now you do like him after all. I am glad Yoshida gave her the same treatment he got and didn't give in on the sudden confession and those pressed together I cups. She felt really genuine with that confession, but I still fear that there's more to it than meets the eye.

And now she's actually coming over, cause Yoshida had to tell Gotou about the situation he is currently in. Really curious to see how this will escalate things for Yoshida and Sayu.

That quick flashback is something she experienced in school? That didn't look good at all...

I'm looking forward to people realising how good she is and that there have been a lot of clues in there from early on, if only they thought about the story and didn't focus on the rent a girlfriend nonsense. Her actions are all pretty reasonable and understandable. Seems like having a large chest, being 28 and being attractive makes someone untrustworthy. Lots a strange prejudices for her crime of not revealing her life story to her coworker.

Damn. This episode was pretty great.

Gotou being a 30 year old virgin was kind of surprising. I really didn't expect this episode to be the one Gotou confesses, after her confession I'm still on team Sayu, even though I'm not all too excited for this harem that's about to occur.

Fast becoming(if not already)anime of AotY for me.I love the way Yoshida's life is shown,and how the others are intersecting with it.
And the CV's are doing an excellent job,as is the music dept.
I also like that it's not shying away too much from showing more mature themes.
All in all,I can't really fault this.
