Kurumi seems nice on the outside but I definitely don't like her, she seems very manipulative and she obviously wants to make sure Kazehaya doesn't prefer Sawako to her. I hope Ayane and Chizu don't get jealous of Sawako's new friendship T__T

Kurumi is not that bad... still the fact itself that she wants Kazahaya is something to dislike her for. He likes Sawako more that's obvious but she may successfully distract him from Sawako.

still great episode - smiling all the time.

I still think that Kurumi is hiding something I dont believe her just something about her personality is just giving me that vibe but other then that this was a funny episode n alittle bit boring at times but cute none the less.

Damn, stop the teasing already and show us that girl real personnality! She look so evil, it's disgusting me...

From the next episode title, it look like Kurumi will try to use Sawako to get Kazehaya. She will probably tell her that she loves him and get her ''cooperation''.

It always blow my mind how much of a big deal names are in japanese culture. I cannot imagine myself not calling someone of my age or younger by his first name, it would be so fucking awkward, like if it was a business meeting or something like that xD

Kurumi is aware that Kazehaya will hate her if she does something to Sawako, so I wonder what she's planing on doing with this approach.

Sawako improved her skills in soccer, thanks to Kazehaya. She met Kurumi, the fake girl. Sawako wanted to have curly and brown hair. Lol @ Yano and Yoshida's wide imagination of Sawako's appearance in different hairstyles.

Kazehaya was about to say Sawako's name when Kurumi ruined their moment. I detest that fake girl. I can't wait to see Kurumi's true colors.

Sawako's falling in love with Kazehaya, not knowing that he also has feelings for her. Same with Kazehaya, he also doesn't know that she's starting to fall in love with him. <3

This time, we start off with soccer practice for the sports festival. Sawako makes an amazing kick with the soccer ball, leaving everyone completely impressed considering how lackluster she was at it before. She thinks back to how Kazehaya helped her practice, thinking she wouldn’t have gotten anywhere if it wasn’t for him. Lol she can’t even think about him without blushing.

When practice is over, Sawako heads back to class alone, bumping into Kurumi. Kurumi only has nice things to say about Sawako, but I think it’s pretty obvious she’s only trying to get on her good side. She completely blows Sawako away when she says she “looks like a doll,” if only Sawako knew that she meant a cursed doll...

Lol Ayane takes her teasing to another level, knowing how flustered Sawako gets when it comes to names. She tries to get Kazehaya to say her given name and he can’t do it! He gets too nervous it’s so precious! And it nearly gave Sawako a heart attack in the process ha ha!

Sawako can’t stop thinking an how perfect Kurumi is so she basically adopts her as a role model. She loves her pretty fluffy hair so she wants some of her own. Lol Chizuro and Ayane can only picture bad outcomes with a different hairstyle so she decides to keep her long black hair instead.

Sawako notices that Kazehaya calls Kurumi by her given name, which makes her wonder if she is special to Kazehaya. I don’t think she realizes it, but she’s clearly feeling a little jealousy here, secretly wishing Kazehaya would do the same for her. Well, he almost does! He was just about to call her “Sawako” until Kurumi had to pop in and interrupt. Here, Kurumi declares that she and Sawako are officially friends, leaving Sawako completely baffled. She sees herself as more of a fan than friend lol. Sigh..I just know Kurumi is gonna hurt Sawako somehow..

Ugh, I have to admit it, Kurumi is quite good at hiding her true intentions in front of everyone. I wonder what her plans might be now that she's friends with the most innocent person in the school...

Anyways, another good episode. Honestly, I really enjoy the moments when Ayane teases Kazehaya about Sawako. His funny reactions really entertain me.

And talking about reactions, Sawako's reactions to her own little victories are so adorable to watch as well. She's so innocent and pure it's almost ridiculous xD

P.S.: Delinquent Sawako would be something great to see, being honest.

I know this is an old anime but this is so odd to see my first anime where no girl has big boobs. It’s kinda refreshing seeing as it’s all abou there personalities and face rather then there bodies

Sawako being jealous of Kazehaya x Kurumi is funny and interesting! So, Kurumi is now Sawako's friend but I'm worry about what is she planning now. The comedy never fails in this anime, the hair discussion was hilarious.

Trashy Sawako (curly brown hair) looked the best I thought. The long black hair is lacking volume imo.

Put me down as Team Kurumi by the way. Fight for your man!

Honestly the show's biggest appeal is very simple. Have some sly, pretty (or not so pretty) cunt taking advantage of Sawako's kindness to do whatever tf. It's really easy to hate Kurumi. After all, she so far appears to be calculative and possibly manipulative, and also quite mean towards Sawako as well (calling her a doll that grows hair).

Sawako is a faultless, sweet and genuinely adorable person. It's natural for anyone watching to hate those who would take advantage of such vulnerable and kindhearted girl.

Honestly I think it's pretty lame. And yeah fuck Kurumi. Not that I care but whatever I hate her the moment she was introduced for whatever reason. Yeah at least this show is good at making shitty people seem genuinely infuriating. Or who knows, if this is all bait and switch, and Kurumi turns out to be a decent human being then fuck me.

If anyone can find for me the composer, song name, artist / album for the music played during the scene where kurumi takes sawako's hands in friendshiptowards the end; please . i will send you a huge blessing in return. its not in the OST album. the closest one to it is starlit sky. even if you could tell me what instrument is being used. its like some string type almost. not a koto or harp or dulcimer. or maybe it was one of those. but theres an electronic tune behind the instrument that makes the sound what it is.

A new friend is made and it's Stalker B, aka Kurumi.

I just can't trust her, something seems off with her.

Also it's clear both Sawako and Shouta like each other, so dating in like 50 episode right!?.........xD

Yup, I very much like Kurumi. In reality she would get with Kazehaya pretty quick. It would be pitty if the story later decides to villainize her because she's actually a chief-kiss, I mean lovely girl.

That's cute how he tried to say her name <3. I'm a big fan of Yano, I love her meddling lol.

A part of me thinks Sawako and Kurumi's interactions are cute, but I am mostly scared for Sawako ;_;. I don't want to see my poor girl be betrayed!
