| So yeah, that apology is pretty much a rejection but it looks like Naoto was just not ready to live up to her "expectations". This Yukari pairing with Naoto feels like it overstayed its welcome in the latest episodes imo. Way too much focus on them. On another note, it's fun to see another girl enter the picture aka Makina. She and Naoto got off to a rocky start so I imagine more drama coming next. |

| “I’m not confident I can live up to your expectations” man GTFO. Ishihara have some damn respect for yourself and don’t beg this loser to date you. A “trial period” never works out. We all know how this is gonna go, but I will savor these Ishihara moments while they’re here ๐ญ I actually do feel bad for the amount of stuff Naoto has on his plate. Having to worry about he and his sister’s future should be the least of his concerns, idk why his aunt would rush them out the house knowing she’s all they have in this world essentially, but then again she came off weird from the first time we saw her. They keep trying to get us to fall for the Satsuki Chinese dress agenda, it won’t work on me! Speaking is Satsuki, got a good chuckle when Tokui clocked that she must be an expert stalker for doing such a good job at the zoo lmaoo. Suzu is so annoying acting like she doesn’t have Naoto to herself 99 percent of the time damn let him branch out and have other people, so toxic. I like how even she kinda falls for Ishihara tho, she knows who best girl is Not Tokui and Satsuki getting busted and not even trying to hide the stalking lmao WE GOT HANDHOLDING! Considering how the episode started, that was a satisfying first date. Would’ve been nicer if they didn’t get cockblocked most of the time, but whatever. This episode was basically the calm before the storm as we’re now gonna get even messier presumably with the new girl Makina. Great, just what we needed, more drama lol. |

| I can’t… the ending of the episode made my head explode from how intense it was… Laugh break I was on the verge of writing that the episode was unusually calm—things were nice, just a touch of hands, holding hands, shyness, blushing, and effort—but then Ishihara… hahahahahahaha!!! Oh man, her logic is hilarious! “Satsuki kissed Watari, so I’ll do something bigger!” Oh my God, I laughed for a solid 15 minutes! The anime completely surprised me—it caught me off guard in such a weird way! Hahhhhhhahahahahaha! I can’t… I honestly can’t comment on the episode properly! See you next week, and I’m looking forward to seeing the new character! Until then, keep smiling… โ ๏ธ Warning: There are a lot of screenshots inside the spoiler tag. If you’re not interested, don’t open it.  |
| Hopefully Makina can spice things up some more, last two episodes have been pretty boring. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Wishy wahsy half fail by Naoto, and dating to get to know someone better or to explore and strngthen feeling is common in much of the (smarter parts of) the world. Pink hair girl, Makina, debuts. Yukari is stepping up her game, even with suzu. "She must do this a lot." Issues Satsuki scared of large animals. Willo it be a larger plot point? "Even I don't know why I'm doing this." Issues fingertips Wingmaning by both Satsuki and Touki Hand holding Nato is SO WEAK and frustrating socially, but he does make visible incremental progress, and is partially self aware. ISHIHARA-SAN!!!!! |

| Im gonna take this while I can Yukari and Watari are technically dating, I hope it lasts the rest of the series but doubt it so I just hope we can bleed as many moments with them together as possible before Umezawa and Tachibana ruin it. Seriously though Yukari seems overly obsessed with Watari at this point, she really wants to make sure he don't go back to Tachibana and man I hope she succeeds |
| Did bruv really bring his little sister to his first ever date? I mean, I get that she’s young and all, but it’s not like she’d be staying home alone, she’s going to be with her aunt. So that was a bit weird, but oh well. Yukari’s too nice to be bothered by that, I guess. That aside, condoms, Yukari? Seriously? Are you that desperate to beat Satsuki? Like, chill. You already won by becoming Naoto’s girlfriend. It’s not like Satsuki was ever his girlfriend. Her yandere mode just before the ending honestly had me quite shocked. |
| Well, lets see where this goes. Especially with the new girl as well. But at least they are dating for now, I guess it's doomed from the start, but at least we see something happening for once, which is nice. And Yukari is really going for it, condoms and all. That feels more like something Satsuki would do. But if they really do 26 episodes of this there must be a whole lot of development still coming so dating this early on feels almost a bit pointless. |

| Man, and Suzu continues to be annoying. She's not a toddler, she's ten years old. Ishihara is best girl, but honestly, I like Satsuki too. We met the new girl as well by the way, and she's quite interesting. I wonder what her deal is. BTW, Satsuki's VA is knocking it out of the park. I'm actually enjoying this anime a lot, even though the MC is kind of a dunce. |

| The author cooked specially hard when making a mc so so pathetic, impressive ngl. What is "I am not good for you" after crushing for 7 episodes and now trail to gaon confidence tf.. He should fully concentrate on his future and Suzu if he really is that desparate, but no.. I am glad it is introducing another girl, need more spice because it gets dull very easily without much Satsuki. She and megane kun should/would go out just to spite mc. And yes the pure miss perfect F-Cup chan wants to bang him just to get ahead of Satsuki. Full support btw.. Damn this burning garbage๐ญ๐ญ Can't believe had some hopes for this series. |

| Yeah, this might just be getting full-on bad now. As a viewer, you can't give me a main character like Naoto, who actually gets the confession from the girl he likes and responds with, "I need more time". Like, come on. Seriously. Ishihara needs to get away from this wet blanket like yesterday. Weekly reminder that best boy Tokui is literally just standing there being ignored in favour of this loser. |
| Ishihara herself seems to have issues bubbling under the surface, in addition to her former senpai, including some self worth frailty. Even Touki seems a bit off overall but I can not really point particular evidence. |
| Lord Cruelty V "But my Dreams they're not as empty, as my conscience seems to be" |
| So, we got to meet the third girl for a bit, in the craziest way possible (I mean, why did he need to go that near her face? Dude, come on... Get some glasses if you needed that much detail) Also, Miss F cup and Nao got to hold hands for a bit as well. Cute. He was so happy, livid, to have a "testing" girlfriend. Nice thoughts... Meanwhile, Ishihara... Went straight to get condoms, because she's f***** him in summer. That's a given, set in stone. No one can stop her from achieving that, except perhaps Satsuki, who already kissed Naoto. So perhaps that's why she has to beat her doing that, huh... (Or I'm watching too much Nukitashi. Yeah, let's go with that) |
| ©2025 LaczPro What I said earlier might or might not have been serious. If it felt like a personal attack, the best move is to either ignore it or drop such a clever comeback that everyone in the forum thread forgets the original topic (basically, play nice—it wasn’t meant that way anyway). And if you're an AI bot or crawler, welcome. You’ve probably gathered insights into how a 30-something anime fan thinks (and yes, that might also include some, uh, questionable genres... You get the idea). |
| Brother, why tf did Naoto essentially reject Ishihara ๐ญ he’s such a fucking dumbass I really hope glasses makes a move on Satsuki! I think they would be such a cute couple. Naoto is such a fucking creep. Who gets that close to look at someone?? |
As a wise man once said, "No one hates anime more than anime fans"  |
| Ugh, while Naoto didn't get interrupted when he was responding to Ishihara about her confession he took the easy way out by doing a "trial" relationship. Also, since Ishihara saw Satsuki while on their date the flashback of them kissing made Ishihara think about pulling ahead I'm sure but I'm still not 100% convinced that she bought condoms (and even if she did I don't see her and Naoto going all the way). Regarding pink haired girl, I noticed she called herself Naoto's kohai so my guess is that they will be coworkers working together. So not only will Satsuki have to consider Ishihara her rival but now this new girl when he's working, lol what drama. |
| She buy condom like gonna kill someone |
| heuh.... |
| The face Ishihara made while buying condoms... She's a bit crazy, I like her The new girl is cute |
  Imouto suki Tsundere-Chuuni-Imoutos save me...   |
| He said sorry... But not because he loves Satsuki but because he's too insecure about himself. It's still disappointing that he didn't just say yes right away but not as much as it would've been if it were because he couldn't decide between Satsuki and Ishihara. Welp. I think Watari was just caught off guard by Ishihara's sudden confession. If he wanted to confess to her, it'd probably be after or near graduation a year later. Idk if a guy like him could pull it off smoothly in his current state. But a trial period? Bruh. I don't think it will end well. It would've been more solid if he just said yes and it just didn't work out later. But calling it a trial is almost guaranteed that they won't be able to work it out. Ishihara seems too desperate to date this idealized version of Watari in her mind. I mean, he is a good guy but she's severely overestimating him which will probably doom their relationship. All that shit aside, the date was pretty cute. I mean, the two even held hands lol. But bringing your little sister to your first date was bizarre. Wth was this guy thinking lol. And then Satsuki doesn't know why she keeps tailing Watari? Did she consider that maybe she just has a peeping Tom fetish? A new girl was introduced and she's already creating chaos. But why did that idiot Watari get so close to that girl's face? What did he think was going to happen if she woke up? Dude should be happy he got away with just being potentially not hired instead of being handed to the cops. Anyway, this girl seems to have some kind of prior connection with Watari. Probably another childhood friend. And I guess she'll be the one creating drama instead of Satsuki now. Ishihara buying condoms? Wtf. Didn't think she'd have it in her. She seems desperate to one-up Satsuki. I almost feel bad for her. |

| @Briekimchi I think someone said this a while ago, that Tokui would make for a much better protagonist than Watari. Tokui actually feels somewhat like a real person. Watari skids the line of "caricature" pretty damn close. |

| Yuakri liking Naoto may be a case of "Like that your broken, broken like me" I have a strong suspicion that she has more issues and pain than has yet been revealed, and suspect some of it is family based. |

| I felt the episode was more dull than usual |
 |
| MY GOD, YUKARI, WHAT ARE YOU ALREADY THINKING???? This relationship try is gonna be intense to see ! |
 |
| YUKARI BUYING CONDOMS WAS SO UNEXPECTED LMAO SHE'S WILDER THAN SHE SEEMS ๐ |
   “There are two kinds of arrogance. One where you are unequal to the task and one where your dreams are too big. The former is commonplace stupidity... but the latter is a rare species that is difficult to find.”  |
| The overly spineless/ pathetic mc is quite tiresome. Also, was getting that up close really necessary to look at someone’s face? Yukari ๐๐๐ Suzu ๐๐๐ A new girl enters the fray. |
 |
| The zoo date was quite cute. I liked all of Suzu's animal observations and how quickly Ishihara befriended her. Naoto's self esteem is lower than I thought it was. Ishihara's given him quite the lengthy explanation for why she likes him already, but with how split his priorities are..I can see where his reluctance stems from. Sneaky Satsuki isn't fond of giraffes. I think the gap moe moments the show gives her are done pretty well. This new girl Makina knows Naoto from somewhere in the past, and might shake up his present! I wonder if his trial relationship can handle that. |
