I think Hayato was just trying to be respectful to Akane's mother and I thought he did a good job in controlling himself. Also, Akane kind of stood up to herself and made  a great cup of coffee. Her mom is right though when she told Akane good luck with all the rivals just before she left.

Regarding Akane's rivals, I like Shiragiku for her friendliness and feminine nature and Riho too for her way of being able to talk to people and help out. Looks like next episode may be beach focused, nice.

 I don't hate him just find him pathetically unappealing, he don't get praises for doing so little

And the girls well Ami is a retard don't like her, the rest is fine and Akane is the best

But hey somebody had a good sense to tell you stop so to you I also say good day and goodbye

pathetically unappealing lmao you probably don't like him beacuse he is not a simp and actually has some personality. You would've probably loved him if he was your average beta selfinsert mc.
Nobody gives a damn about Hayato, most of us are here just for the girls. Sure I would've liked him if he was even a bit interesting sadly that's not the case but doesnt matter I don't care about him

So people like you who makes this kind of assumption shows how ignorant they really are

idk about here but in other discussions they objectively care more about Hayato than the girls. Hell, Hayato was one of the reasons why I was interested in watching the show in the first place with how many manga readers said how he was a really well written main character, and personally, I found myself in agreement with that statement. I can't say that you are ignorant for saying that about here because I haven't been paying much attention to what people say in these discussions too much, but believe me when I say that in other discussions, people are in it for mainly Hayato.

Nobody gives a damn hayato is a not a good argument. Everyone loves Hayato in the goddess cafe fandom lmao. Don't talk about the stuff you don't know anything about. the girls are the most surface level character out there. Hayato has way more layers to him compared to other characters in the series. You can't make a proper argument my guy.

I’m up to date with the manga and I really wouldn’t enjoy the series as much if it weren’t for Hayate. If it was any other protagonist then I would’ve probably dropped it. Nowadays for me, the girls aren’t enough to carry a series.

Whether people like or hate him they've their own opinion so respect it and leave it. Besides this is a forum about the episode, why the hell would they turn this into a conversation about something else ??

I don't care whether people likes him or not this is a garbage harem, I'm here for the fanservice not for this boring mc

And don't go around attacking people for making criticism do something more useful

He's not the worst mc out there but I think he is boring and a bit arrogant

I also agree with you these days the girls (even if I do I like them more than the mc) sometime aren't enough to carry the show but there are some other factors that they are lacking.... the jokes

I didn't enjoy this episode either.

For all the cheesy drama out there, this episode tried so hard to deliver self-contained plot arc yet it didn't really feel natural at all.
It's not good writing to introduce a problem and resolve it right away. Felt like girl of the week checklist. We will get another girl drama the next week.
Her strict mother was persuaded way too easily, she didn't even require any assurances and simple coffee was all it took to change her mind.
While I liked Hayato's general approach, trying to make Akane stand on her own, he rushed and forced her change on the spot in the end.

Compare with Oregairu and Yukino's complicated relationship with her mother. Miles difference.
Showing that persuasion didn't work at first would resulted in much bigger payoff later on here.

I think the direction of the episode was pretty decent but I guess they can only do so much with subpar source material.

The worst thing? While they try to portray MC as ultimate chad, he still chickened out in the end when Akane got close to him at the pier.
He basically reverted to classic anime trope harem protag there.

Hey at least he's better than that domestic kanojo MC lol

Another flag for Akane!!! YEAH!
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.

This top comment from username YourAverageSimp in 9anime is spot on:

This is Akane's episode
Offered mc to grope her boobs
Got a date
Told her backstory
Made mc meet her mother
Convinced her mother and got her approval
Hugged mc and indirectly confessed
Had some development
but most important firmed her spot in my heart for the best girl in the anime.

Yoooo let's go, Akane get's to stay!! Would it've felt more serious if this went on for another episode but I don't mind.

Oh, and apparently her mother knows of Hayato's family? Probably met his grandma in the past at some point. Who knows, they could've been friends or something. Kinda wanna know now actually...


Anyways, solid episode, Akane best girl, what more can I say.

Best girl ep is here! I like how Hayato took more of a passive stance and let Akane handle her own problems by convincing her mother through her actions instead of letting Akane rely on Hayato to save the day like what happens in most other series.

It's the usual family responsibility drama but the way Hayato and Akane handled it is superb, not only Akane's mom willing to let her do her stuff but even approved of the inevitable marriage proposal lmao

A great episode where Akane has to go back to her family after one year out on her own. Hayato helps her to make up her mind whether to stay or to heed her mom. In the end Hayato makes Akane realized how much she wanted to stay and showed her resolve to her mom. Her mom agreed to let Akane lives her own life and prompts her to better win Hayato's heart even against the other girls.

Instead of standing up for her, he teaches Akane the more important lesson of standing up for herself by pointing out that Akane's mother is right with not committing to her dreams.

What was that reaction to Hayato revealing his name? Could it be that the man Akane was supposed to marry was Hayato all along?

Akane's was acting way too out of character in the first minutes, and in fact... however, the second half was actually pretty good.
Yes, it felt unnatural to have her mother presented like a supervillain with single-colored eyes (and noticed how they now look normal after the "switch") and a cold ruthless attitude that suddenly changes into good and understanding because the coffee tasted good enough. Yes, the other girls HAD to suddenly crash the meeting (even after the happy ending) because Ami is Ami and gave obviously an imperfect report of what was happening. But... what if she was actually already ready to live her daughter's life and she was just testing her to watch if she's ready and willing to go through it?
Yeah, i can understand criticism for how the subject was handled, but for personal reasons i enjoyed the execution, including the usual part "what i'm expected to do vs what i actually want to do", Hayato making Akane understand how she needed to be the one facing her fears, it's all something i witnessed somehow in first person when i had half my age especially (sort of). Hell, i've been through "ugh, those dyed blond hair..." comments too, by coincidence (i still have them and as long as it stays possible that's final).

EP 7

So yeah its akane dorama time. or something

We're 7 eps in but so far. maybe they'll compensate later but like, i feel like ouka and kiku have gotten a bit of the shaft.
So yeah basically the entire ep was akane, but im curious
They did vaguely hint that there's some kind of backstory but what do i know.
We still have all the other 4 girls backstory or something.

Also they skipped the ed again

Preview for next ep seems to be really heavy on the fanservice this time ahue

meh coffee was enough to convince her mother to let her continue being waitress?:D:D:D
nah! likely mother liked Hayato I wonder what was that reaction when she heard his name?

but she could at least show her that cd album she made and songs she wrote that would be better than coffee ;p

well first route cleared, who will be next?
or maybe Ami route was also cleared already?:D

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

Looks like Akane will forever be grateful that the arranged marriaged is called off, even her mother is supporting him for her.

I wonder what she meant. What is Hayato's family got to do with her?
