Our two protagonists are defined by their difficulty in trusting others. Fujimiya's history of being bullied, and Shiina's abandonment by her parents, have formed their personalities and created the tension in our story. You could say this is a high school romance. But you could also say it is a story about the two lovebirds finding a way to heal from past trauma. And now, with the support of new friend Kadowaki, the circle of trust gets a little bit bigger. A very sweet, if slow moving story.

The best bit of the show for me was Amane being hit on by the girls at the mall, and Mahiru rushing to defend her territory and give the girls the brush-off. That was some rom-com gold. And I didn't think Mahiru could actually pull off the mature and sexy look, but that new hair style was awesome.

that's a proper date right there. they're even holding hands in public now, wow. hella progress.
amane looks basic in school but when he's out, he got girls going up to him.
bro really didn't push his luck too much at the end tho, mahiru couldn't believe it.

Another Saturday (or Sunday for me) and another day of diabetes-inducing 24 minutes. I think the fact that Amane is being almost forced to admit and/or realise his feelings for Mahiru is very much hopefully going to speed along the confession arc; the series has gone so drastically fast compared to the average romance that it will likely be regarded as one of if not the biggest let down of this season if it's not done soon.

Overall, the progression between Mahiru and Amane in this episode was not bad, but it wasn't good either. It's a continuation of stalling until the confession, which is pretty standard, but they can't push it very long without feeling too drawn out. See what next week's episode brings, I suppose.

They have done everything a normal couple would do. Holding hands while going out, first name calling, eating everyday together. Like at this point their going out.

Whilst on their little day out, they end up going to a cat cafe and the arcade! Also the moment when Shiina went and took Amane away from those girls was nice to see.

Kadowaki seems to have found out about them but he seems like a genuinely nice guy I'll trust him for now. Also now him and Itsuki are teasing Amane lol.

Damn Mahiru really wanted that kiss huh.

This anime is going to raise my blood sugar levels even higher than it already is.

Only 3 episodes left now, we are really getting down to the business end of things. My heart needs them to officially announce that their together!!

Mahiru telling Kadowaki that Amane wasn't her boyfriend almost made me pop a vein.

Also I lost count of the times Amane's facial structure changed this episode.


Indeed, I am loving the story but there is something off with the animation in this episode, Amane was full of physionomical inconsitencies .

Burst out laughing when those girls came over and asked if Amane wanted to hang out, reverse trope? Is this writer serious? I enjoyed this anime at the beginning when things were a lot more unsure, now this "progressing relationship" feels like a joke, hate this milking from the writer. Still can't get over some of this robotic dialogue as well.

So, the hand-holding thing. In his own mind, what he's doing now is "escorting" Mahiru, or making sure she doesn't get lost in the crowd or fall over if she's jostled or- (you get the picture). Mahiru plays along with this because it gives her plausible deniability - Oh, you saw us holding hands? But we definitely aren't dating! Even if we're clearly on a date.

To the people making comments about the animation this episode, well, OK it wasn't great but it was a distinct improvement from the last few episodes.

[Edit] And something I've just picked up on, Kadowaki doesn't call Mahiru a "wife-in-training" when he's at the karaoke, he calls her a kayoizuma, a "commuting wife", which is where a where a woman doesn't actually live with her husband but still visits to look after him.

And the cast of people shipping these two together grows! The best part of the series honestly. I'd watch a full episode of them being teased about being together.
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.

This is fcking stupid. WHO TF holds hands for that amount of damn time while going out, basically lives with one another and cooks for the other and STILL fcking thinks they're just friends!? this is waaaay past being dense, this is just dumb shit. Each passing episode while yes having its adorable moments is lowkey pissing me off.

I mean just look at this bitchs expression in the end, she had a face of wanting to suck that dick so bad it pained me fr.

This episode released on my birthday but I was a day late to watch it lol. Oh well.

Looks like Amane and Mahiru had their first actual date lol, and ofc someone who knows them shows up.

These guys are really holding hands the whole time, how are they not dating yet?

Mahiru really expecting a kiss at the end huh? I guess we were too xD

Never ending plan to watch list...

So they finally reach the cat cafe scene, though it was really short. 

The scene in the LN is longer and wayyyyy more cute. 

Also some of these faces looked super weird on this episode.

I'm sure what we got earlier that he had to move to other place because of bullying or something is his backstory.
There's no way this is all of it! It was just a peak, for the audience.

The full story will probably be revealed in front of Mahiru. Also, I'm positive this has to do with him having a very low view of himself, to the point it annoys Mahiru.

Mahiru definitely turned into the jealous gf by what she did blocking the two girls.   Amane didn't get the hint.

Hint number 2 was when he had her on her back and she was waiting for that kiss, especially when she sat up and touched her lips.  Amane isn't getting the clues.
Which one do you want? An Addiction or A Good Life?
A) Addiction - a progressive narrowing of the things that bring you pleasure.
B) A Good Life - a progressive expansion of the things that bring you pleasure and includes pleasure through motivation and hard work.

An episode mostly dedicated to Mahiru and Amane going on a date was as good as it sounds, add cats into the mix and you’re golden lol. It was a grand time but Kadowaki sadly hurt the vibe a bit by pointing out the fact they look like a couple which they clearly aren’t (are) lol. I also loved the first bit where Mahiru taught Chitose some cooking lessons, any amount of Chitose is appreciated by me, especially loved her line “What troubles you, my lad?” lol, I can’t believe I’m more into this girl than Mahiru.

And the last bit where a kiss was nearly had was great, going for the cheek pinch instead of a kiss is such an Amane move and it was clear that Mahiru was almost wanting one, so close but I’m sure it’ll happen eventually lol. And I’ll say this is the first episode where I noticed a bit of inconsistency with the art, mainly during the cat cafe bit, I know people have been mentioning it for a while but this is the first time it was noticeable to me, didn’t stop it from being a cute scene tho.

My fellow brother, do we even need to suffer this? Do we even think to have a relationship like this? Do we even think it even possible in our world!?

Raise your hand, take the holy spirit with you, and may the lord bless us to fight against this cruelty!

It is time brother, time for punishment

I dreamt last night that this show had been turned into a VN, and if Amane goes off with the girls at the mall you get a 3-some scene at a hotel, but then Mahiru buys that knife sharpening stone she's always wanted, followed by a nice boat BAD END!

One such as myself can't get enough of something this sweet every week. Just watching this made most of my stress nonexistent. 🥰

It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Late game sabotage? That would surely cause a massive reaction against the show.
Gay for Amane? I guess we can't rule that out, but wouldn't Itsuki then be warning him to steer clear?
Which I hope leaves... genuinely nice guy.

This is just peak, it caused my eyes diabetes XD
Even if the animation is not upto the standard mark, the wholesome aura of this show keeps you away from that fact

Would it get even more better? If it has a confession by the end then I will consider it as one of the masterpiece romcoms of this trope "most popular girl dating a random dude"

i legit thought i was gonna die from how cute this episode was. had a fit of cuteness-aggression as well. i can't take this cuteness anymore, this is too much.

also felt real frustation when they both kept touching each other's cheeks so cutely and yet not fucking hugging bro like c'mon please hug, i'm not even asking for kiss eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

at least they can hold hands in public so i'll forgive them but now it is confirmed that even amane likes her 100% and seeing how mahiru's been acting for the past couple episode it's clear for everyone that she does too so now time to confess. we already got a on-top of each other scene with a potential kiss so i think they are teasing that it's gonna happen soon which it should considering only 3 more episodes are left.

but mahiru wanting a kiss tho 😭😭. seeing this gives me hope that we might actually get to see it soon.

10/10.


The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

in most anime even couples get too flustered to hold hands, and yet here we have to accept that they're still 'just friends'? Hmmm
