| Wow that's a surprise having Izumi and Miichon never watched the movie before. Guess this is the best they've got? Nope, all bad luck still hangs around those poor boy xd. Though i don't mind having my girlfriend which so cutie and cool at the same time, taking care of me when i am that scare. Because that's when the fun part happened while watching movie at the cinema, right? Ofc some edgyhighlord won't dare be agree, i can feel it xd. Anyway, dang Izumi parents kind of an odd combination, but also could be funny at the same times. So, that's also nice having Miichon got a good time with Izumi parents. Makoto not even doubt saying her wish toward Miichon, while then Izumi's father also had no doubt cracking dad joke. See its quite an interesting pair xd. Even until i am quite wondering how about Miichon family. Like, her older brother already revealed, then what about her parents? Maybe later. So, yeah, next! |

CQLLIST said: Honestly, I don't recall Shikimori's mom or brother appearing this early? But whateves they can go rush with the source material all they want and going to say both the anime and manga are entirely separable mediums, the anime is almost in a different context at this point and now that people are going to drop this series since they have made it to the 3 episode rule, I myself am going to appreciate Shikimori's braid ponytail!!!  I do agree that the anime and manga have diverged. Seems to be following its own story that’s inspired from the manga |
 My biggest regret: Reading all 200+ chapters of Kanojo, Okarishimasu |
| Dickless show. I am done 5/10 |

I'm fine, thank you. I just worry for my fellow weeb degenerates, being bluepilled into oblivion. Doing the gods work and all that :D Stays strong kings, you don't want a real Shikimori in your lives |
| Wait, that old guy is Izumi's DAD?! I could have sworn that was his grandpa. Damn, he bagged himself a young hottie for a wife. Speaking of hotties, hey Shikimori, if you wanna keep wearing those glasses, I certainly wouldn't mind |

kriissyy12 said: IKR. It's way too boring and I'm continuing this only for ShikimoriSuch a disappointing series. 3 episodes in and it feels like we've watched a cheap remake of Tonikaku but 100x more boring, I guess Waifu bait can only get you so far. |
 |
| So how many times has he lost his wallet exactly? |

RioFS said: I can't recall him losing it once in the manga, I'm not sure why the creative team is hellbent on running this bad luck gag into the fucking ground. So how many times has he lost his wallet exactly? |
| If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that. |

|
| Still an average episode, but a little better than the other two. Haha, as I expected, he is Izumi father... Maybe he get old faster because of over thinking on how many money he spend on his wife and son clumsyness. Just imaging how many money loss by his son and how many broken plates his wife brokes. Haha, but he's a funny guy. Well, poor Izumi for his bad luck... He is cute though... |
 |
| That's some cute date moment, especially at the cinema but Izumi is too afraid of horror movies xD and it's cute to see how Shikimori is already familiar with Izumi's parents |
 |
| A date with Shikimori seems like a refreshing atmosphere away from school kind of dig the vibe outside Soy boy Izumi is showing his true colors but Shikimori's there to comfort him so It's like a win win situation I mean there we go with his unlucky traits just snapping his wallet's string, I was thinking what if Izumi just gave it to Shikimori therefore he wouldn't have lost his funds if Shikimori has it or would that mess up the plot hole, At least his parents were there for him to support him. |
  |
| Woah the jump scare actually scared me xD But it was just so heartwarming with the dinner scene. |

| Okay so in contrast from what I said from the past 2 episodes, I could say that I'm starting to appreciate this already. I don't really have a problem with Izumi's bad luck, just his clumsiness. But seeing from this ep that he prepared for the date to prevent unfortunate stuff to happen is a good development for him (even tho in the end, his bad luck prevailed). I only have one issue with this ep which is falling asleep too long when your partner's at your home especially that she's not regularly coming there, that's a big NO. When I thought his progressing but it immediately got took away by a certain action. Well anw, as long as he's growing, I'd give it a thumbs up. Hope to see significant development in him for the next episodes. |

| Look the family is sweet, but they are mostly inoffensive characters that I don't feel strongly for either way. The best line was the dad sarcastically saying "Having an affair in front of me?", but there's hardly anything else in this episode. They have tripled down on the whole misfortune shtick by pulling it twice this episode. They've spent 3 episodes with the same underlying message: "Izumi is unlucky and kinda girly, while Shikimori deflects his misfortune and is assertive." This is so sweet! It's not even that a 2 character dynamic doesn't work, or even that THESE 2 characters wouldn't work in a show. They've just slapped they misfortune button 2-3 times per episode, while nothing that happens is actually consequential to Izumi. |
| I'm not a lolicon, you're just projecting your tendency to lewd 2D characters. If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate. Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too. My MAL Interview |
| Makes me wonder how Izumi even managed to survive this far. No one in the right mind would want to date such a troublesome person, Shikimori's explanation makes no sense. |
 「あなたのためなら世界中を敵にしてもかまわない」 "If it was for your sake I wouldn't mind even if I had to turn the whole world into my enemy" |
| I wasn't too impressed by first two episodes, but this one went very nicely. His parents sure are fun and, just like other side characters, make up for rather boring (and annoying?) Izumi. |
| Lame Lamer Lamest! damn dude! i guess Shikimori thinks: "thank god this fate kinda happens" she even likes protecting him! oh god! 2/5. |
 |
| It was more than obvious, but she just keeps proving why she is the best girl of this season. |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| The family scenes and IT homage made this episode 100% better. Oka-san is too sweet for words. The MC is beyond saving tho. What kind of lifeform falls asleep when he brings his GF home in their very first date? Unless it's the bad luck thing kicking in. |

| Step in the right direction after the first two episodes which were pretty dull. |
| Easily the best episode yet. Really brought a smile to my face. |
| "I wish you were my girlfriend" wtfff |
| Okaasan is very sweet I want to protect her. |
| i am a big fan of the manga, it's my favorite romance, but if i'm completely honest.. the anime isn't hitting the same lol. i do really like the animation. it's gorgeous. i also REALLY like the opening, it gets stuck in my head for a good two days each time i hear it. it just feels very slow compared to the manga, i was really looking forward to it so i probably had my hopes way too high but oh well, i'm still enjoying it i just expected more. i liked this episode more than the first two, especially the second half. i enjoyed her conversation with his mom about him, they both care about him so much :') |
| The last part of this episode is really nice, it appears there's more things between the two in the past, can't wait to find out. |
 |
| That was a fun date. Loved Shikimori and Izumi's parents' interactions. |
 |
| The movie interaction was a bit dull but the second half of the episode was very wholesome. Izumi's parents are great, the dads comments were great. |
| I f'in love this show. Damn wholesome and most characters so far had high value. |
| Izumi and Shikimori went to the movies, but because of the movie they didn't stay there. And they went to eat, but at Izumi's house. The episode was nice, Izumi's parents are really nice xd. Very good, Shikimori looked precious. |
| I don't like this show, it will probably be forgotten in a few years |
| I was so bored I almost kms jk but damn I almost fell asleep.. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| People are obsessed with IT eh? I never saw the appeal. I liked the parts when they were at Izumi's home. There were some fun interactions with Shikimori and the parents. Overall, there isn't much substantial to this. It's just a light, easy-going watch. |
 "...Is your mother worried? Would you like us to assign someone to worry your mother?" |
| She's just looks like already become their family XD |

| That face Shikimori makes when she grabs Izumi’s hand when he’s scared during the movie, was hilarious to me. I know it wasn’t their intention, but she has such a smug look. |
| This was cutee. I like that they're fleshing out Izumi more beyond just being unlucky. I figured the perpetually unlucky thing would get boring, but I like how they're using it to show how resilient Izumi is and how he's come out of it stronger |
Yui_Suzumiya69 said: Holy mackerel! Lol .. you know there's a big difference between reality and anime right? You even mentioned that in your speech, lol Of course. I'm not emotionaly and socialy handicaped, like some of the people around here. It's not about reality vs anime, it's about the message the show puts across, and the way it does. And I don't remember the last time 3 episodes of a god damn cartoon pissed me more than this here. It just pushed all the buttons that I don't like about anime/manga relationships |
