Meh. No proper confession at all despite everything that happened last episode. Just more of the same with Ichikawa chickening out despite having nothing to fear anymore.

Hara's interactions with Ichikawa were nice tho. Already more chemistry between them than with Yamada in almost 20 episodes.
As for Hara and Kanzaki, not sure why she doesn't take his confession seriously. Maybe she realized the weirdo confessed to her purely because of a fetish...

Another peaaaak episode, I am going to give this one a a short review because i reviewed it reall late ;-;

But Ichikawa gets caught by other girls and get pushed into the karaoke room and talks to Yamada after he leaves. Then i was so caught off guard when Ichikawa starts singing the OP 😂

Anyways they do a double date with their other classmates and overall it was so funny with all the misunderstandings. The boys they also get there early trying to choose what gift is best for white day.

Anyways the day ends and Ichikawa and Yamada truly share some heartwarming moments <3

Within the Ichikawa house, Ichikawa is getting popular for his speech...but in school, both him and Yamada are still avoiding each other after their little episode. And going to karaoke with the boys' basketball team, it's not what Ichikawa would've wanted, but the socially inept in him pushes him to stalk the group, which he gets spotted by them. Of course, the confession would not go unheard, but he still faces it on, while ad-libbing his way transitioning to the OP. Whoever thought of this, pure genius.

Needlessly, Ichikawa gets gruelled by the basketball team, which honestly, it isn't all that bad. Hara wanting Ichikawa and Yamada's ehlp for a double date with Kanzaki, but it's weird that they go out together, but don't count themselves as a couple. As it turns out, that day is White Day, and Ichikawa just took that opportunity to go to Harajuku for Sweets Paradise. Both Hara and Ichikawa meeting on the same train and the latter deciding to get accessories...that took him into jealousy territory with both Yamada and Kanzaki.

For sure, Kanzaki is really into Hara, and especially when it comes to food, he needs Yamada's help. But to Ichikawa, he's just forcing his ideals on her, which boyfriend material or not, he's rather straightforward, which i still a good thing. But when it comes to presents, both boys get jealous over the other, and Ichikawa...just hilariously keeps digging his grave further on his love for Yamada. Say what you want about Kanzaki, at least he got his priorities straight, but Yamada pretending to be lost so that she can spend time with Ichikawa alone and the latter with Kanzaki, and he indeed honoured his promise not to always be concerned about the people around him, and gave her his White Day present: a muffin, and also a jewelry pendant stuffed within.

At this point, there's no point hiding their feelings for one another.

@Blackwolf1261 ur brain is too stupid, that's why u didn't know the beauty of realistic romance progression without any Unnecessary drama or rushed Story. Not surprising this come from mid romance watcher
@Johntyson31 Realistic is a bit far fetched, since EP 4-5 I think in season 2 both knew they liked each other and have confessed "In-directly" to each other. My problem is now we are reaching just fillers, as these confessions are being "excused" or "I did'nt hear that" and so on. I loved their story so far but I feel we are simply just not going anywhere anymore.

You could cut out 5 episodes and it wouldn't change the story point, they still haven't come further.

Be patient.

Even kaguya sama took 3 seasons and a movie to get to where they are.

This is a slow burn but expect something special at the end of this season

No need to bring rent a gf in this… thats just disrespectful
@kisip123 Indeed, it has.... "Checks manga chapter" over what 200-300 chapters before even coming close to rent a GF level. But since that anime, when I see filler episodes where you could cut out a good few episode and no change has happened I get scared

@Johntyson31 that’s too far, remember the spirit of this anime? It’s fine to be weird, or even as stupid as Chii! But ultimately it is you who make a difference
@ForestWoodSL I just feel like we have reached filler episodes, episode you could cut out and not notice because no change has happened. The excused of their "in-direct" confesses are just getting a bit out of hand.

@Blackwolf1261 I agree.

Overall, I love this season, but I have a problem with the pace, the order of the episodes, we had a wonderful build-up of tension with episodes 6 and 7.

But then... The following episodes were good, I'm not saying they weren't, but they didn't follow the logic, the confession should have come right afterwards.

I mean, Anna and Kyo haven't stopped telling the others they love each other every episode, everyone knows they love each other, they had an incredible moment in episode 7, how do you explain all that filler from episode 8 until now?

@UrabeMikotoChan the logic is more straight forward than you think but is less obvious to observe. If you think they are fillers it’s fine, but they are not…

In one sentence Yamada has told you the answer: Ichikawa is like a cat who runs away when you approach him. Remember the backfire back in Karte 9? If not, how he reluctantly called Anna in Karte 12, and how he dismiss Sensei’s comments and invitation in Karte 13 and 18, just shows that while he did improved a lot, he is still Icatkawa and did not tranformed into another person just because he is in love (or I would say the change is not drastic enough for this). Remind you from Karte 9 till Karte 19 it was in the space of 3 months in universe, do you seriously think that kind of change is anything realistic?

Just as we think there is nothing to write after Karte 19 except for confession right? Karte 20 he just shows you that while he got the determination to confess, he is not psychologically prepared for being another step further with Yamada, and when he is called Kyou he just run away. 3 episodes later when he was called Kyou again, he does improve. That 4 episodes focus on the psychological perspectives of being a couple, the mentality of being closer, the ability to speak owns vulnerability in front of your dearest, to worry him or her as much as yourself, handling the other’s family, to handle peer pressure and so on.

And lastly… Karte 20, 21, 23 would amount to whole season of progress in other romance anime, and ironically they just felt like filler here (well I don’t think so but I can see why you think so), and that is exactly why BokuYaba is such a substantive anime.

Hara's casual outfit is adorable and just her vibe!! The cutlery set was a great, unique gift idea for her as well. I can't believe her and Kanzaki aren't dating yet with how forward they seem to be, haha.

Kyoutarou and Anna are taking steps forward as well. Seeing Kyoutarou's character development is so rewarding! This show is coming of age at it's finest, really.

I’m glad to see Ichikawa really stepped up to the plate there, and give Yamada that kind of gift, one that he made himself, and was actually the exact same kind of gift that she gave him on Valentine’s Day! Especially with his, once again, very self depreciating attitude, that’s quite frankly, getting very annoying! I mean, we all have our struggles, but what Ichikawa's doing, it’s just a little bit excessive to say the least.

And I had to put a light novel on hold because I was spotting there too, with one of the main characters’ extremely self depreciating attitude there. And I’ve seen it in some anime too, especially as of late. I mean, I heard of character development, but what’s going on with these extremely self depreciating characters is not only excessive, but is very annoying, and can really take away from the series.

I mean, I still love the season though, don’t get me wrong, but it’s just something that I’ve noticed as of late that’s really been urking me.
And once again, kudos to Ichikawa for making that muffin, and giving it to her for White Day!

What does Yamada write/trace with her finger on Ichikawa's back just before they noticed the girls from the basketball team staring at them through the door?
