Well, she could somehow bring her little sister to school. Back then only teachers had this kind of privilege lol. Btw, I liked how these two are still awkward around each other when it comes to calling each other by their first names. I mean that is what being japanese means right? You could confess to each other whenever you feel like but calling by first name… nah, that’s ultra difficult mode xD

Getting called cute for a swimsuit in a swimsuit segment is that must-have thing you should never keep to yourself, like Rin did. Little sister is a cute little addition if I say so, and yeah, she isn’t as awkward as her big sis, so a plus here. Also hey, Rin should’ve just asked Eiji to come along, would’ve saved her from all the vlogging attempts lol. Little guy, you better stay strong tho( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

A lot of the imouto this week .. she for sure is Rin's little sister alright.

They zoomed right through the whole summer vacation stuff, i guess expected from the way the manga is. Still liked how Rin casually scared two pre-school kids for life with that "melted in water" joke, lol.

Rin's little sister is so adorable just like her. I still love how awkwardly cute Rin gets when she is around Senpai.

I like to think the lore behind Lazy-chan is that she came to be from the energy deficit of containing multiple personalities in one body.

Forget officially dating, wowing Eiji's mom and getting Ayaka's bro-in-law seal of approval makes them practically married

Her little sister is so cute 。゚(゚´ω`゚)゚。 they were like a little family, that was adorable! Watching her copy her sister later on was AWESOME, I feel like I need a spin off just for those two!
And now we know about Lazy-Chan! Later in the episode, I’ll admit, I thought it was awesome that there was practically reverse baby talk. The way her sister understood her was hilariously cute. I love the way they all relate to each other so much- Nanakura in love is one of the best things I’ve ever seen.
It was cute seeing her wear a yukata and go to a festival with him too. She looked really good! Eiji goofing off with the mask was amazing too, I love that he just happened to watch Princess Rhythm. I hope they never change.
“He swam so much he melted into the water.” 🤣 they had no idea what to say to that!
The way they openly tease each other and set up the perfect scenes makes this show really entertaining!

Aww, could Rin and Eiji be any cuter ?!
Using her own little sister as wingman haha.
Loved the bit where they send each other videos while on vacation, it progressively got more and more flirty :)

Finally, it's Ayaka's turn to appear again after a while. I like it when Rin visits her grandparents' house, there are also many views. And of course the pool part is nice too.

I didn't see much of Rin and Eiji's progress, because it's really at a slow pace, so we can only be patient for that.

Rin's little sister is adorable and a great wingman, and watching her copy Rin was cute too. On a separate note it's a bit of shame that Rin and Eiji couldn't be at the beach together but at least they hung out at the pool, thanks to the little sister.

Really cute episode as always, my mood is improved ❤️

Ayaka chan best girl. Lowkey she carried the episode and Rin owes a lot of progress to her little sister lol. Without her, Eiji wouldn’t have told Rin that she was cute on the couch, there would’ve been no swimpark and thus no “your swimsuit is cute” and more. Next time Rin is gonna have to do it on her own 😂

Poor Megu having to listen to Rin talk about Eiji calling her cute for hours on end lmao.

What’s up with the Nakamura and cute girls that take your breath away? Eiji and Rin and now Ayaka and Shiro lol. From the little of them we seen, it felt like Takagi-san and I’d love to see more of those little love birds

Natsumatsuri, swimpark and Ayaka.. really good episode that went by in a breeze!

Omg not only we got Festival episode but also the Obligatory Pool episode as well.

Lazy Girl Diary segment was a nice addition.
Hopefully not just for this episode only.

But Rin sister Ayaka-chan copying Rin was so adorable.
Definitely steal the spotlight for this episode.

"The episode was full of clichés for Rin and Eiji; their progress is slow but very sweet and pure. I'm desperate to see them as an official couple already.

However, Rin's younger sister, Ayaka, stole the show with her adorableness. She also revealed a new side of Rin (the lazy one). Additionally, Ayaka imitates her sister and ends up making poor Shiro suffer, as he's still too young to understand his feelings."

Weekly Best girl time..
This time Ayaka joined her sister too. She can even act like her sister at such a small age even embarrassed that poor boy Shiro. She also helped Rin a lot with progress with Senpai.
Nah she so cuteeeee..

Liked when the prez was coming had its own weird music too. Rin successfully avoided everyone and had a good date Eiji well done girl. She also got a compliment out of dense as fuck Eiji.

Lazy chan skits was very funny. Brilliant addition to the harem.

This episode was a summer staple extravaganza, definitely not against it tho as it’s fitting for the time of year, and it gave me a 4D experience because I watched it outside during the humid evening lol. I do wish we got a bit more of the summer festival, but what we got was really cute, I loved Nanakura wanting to stay away from the rest of the club members to get her alone time with Eiji. And the pool bit was also really cute, loved the addition of Ayaka and her friend, poor Eiji was tortured by them tho lol, but he at least got his moment with Nanakura when he complimented her swimsuit, Nanakura was on cloud 9 to the point she talked her friend Megu’s ear off about it lol.

I also loved the countryside visit parts, the bit where Nanakura and Eiji were exchanged videos was both cute and goofy, RIP Eiji’s ice cream, that’s what he gets for taunting Nanakura lol. And the bit between Ayaka and Shiro was really good as well, that almost makes me want a spin-off of these two, either as they are now or grown up, I love how Ayaka tries imitating her sister too, and I’m ngl the countryside in this episode is making me miss Non Non Biyori, maybe it’s time to watch a different SoL also set there lol. And I also enjoyed the “Lazy-chan” bits, that amount of laziness is next level but also relatable, it must be from all the characters Nanakura plays lol.

*Yawn* pretty boring show. There's little plot here. Slice of lifey.

I would enjoy it more if we could get some conflict or a villain. Or even just a rival. But there's nothing.

Rin's younger sister Ayaka comes to play with Eiji and the harem girl, though she can be rather unapologetic in being truthful about her own older sister. Rin being lazy, nah she's cute than one lazy bum.

It's summer vacation, and Rin being free means that she has enough time with Eiji, like hanging out at the usual Summer festival whilst getting lost together, separately from the Drama Club...because reasons. And what dignifies Summer better than spending time at the pool with Ayaka and her friend Moe, and other than the usual flirting between Eiji and Rin, the kids are so into Eiji that they want him to do things for them, so much so that he hides behind her back. Eiji complementing Rin's swimsuit on the other hand, he's really into the big brother character a lot.

The girls' talk between Rin and Megu, the former is clearly over the moon, but please don't ask Aya to help invite Eiji. Rin being in the countryside is fun recording herself, though Eiji sending her a response video in his usual style, it's so him. Even Ayaka had her moment of trying to be Rin towards Shiro, she's just literally teasing him lols, even with an indirect kiss moment that she just has no idea of how he's so shy about it.

Like siblings, Ayaka is akin to Rin a lot.

The pool segment was hilarious, I was wheezing the whole time!! It really let the personalities of the characters shine.

Speaking of personalities, I love how Eiji isn't just some cookie cutter self insert man. Him and Rin are equal, likeable individuals with their own quirks and capability to take action which makes their dynamic so much more authentic and fun to watch.

This episode was really enjoyable, although I kind of wish some of this stuff like the festival and the water park could've been split into episodes of their own. It was kind of sweet seeing Ayaka acting like her big sister in the country town but I admit the entire time I was just wondering when we were finally going back to Rin.

The best Lazy-chan was the one unwilling to sit up to play video games.

Rin teasing her sister about a melted Eiji and having to get him back together was a fun side of Rin.

Best series of the season to just relax and enjoy soothing cuteness each week.

fun episode. they covered at least 2-3 episodes worth of content in a single episode lol. summer festival, hanabi, pool and beach.

the ice-cream and ramune buying scene reminded me of something i didn't wanna remember.

idk if this anime is growing on me but the subsequent episodes are getting fun.

also dibs on adult ayaka. she easily gonna surpass rin.

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

Great episode. I liked that Eiji is quite interested in learning Rin's summer plans. He's acting more like he's smitten by her. She is more than a friend that's fun to hang out with. Then instead of filling runtime with scenes of planning and talking we are dropped into the various events.
And of COURSE everything is more fun with a cute imoto. Ayaka has learned a lot from Rin onee-chan.
