| I've been on the verge of putting this anime off until it finishes, I think I'll make this the point in which I'll pick it back up later. |
| I like this anime so far but... New Characters showing up every episode isn't very original. The Star transferring and trying to get the guy either. Overused! I'll keep watching however because it's still cute and I like it. Remind me of Bokura Ga Ita somehow and Kimi ni Todoke. I liked that show too. When I watch Shoujo, I always get mad at the Heroine for being naive so nothing new here ! ;) Actually... I thought Megu wasn't looking that good with him. And... I thought he wasn't interested in Look ? then why doing photo shot even if it's just for one day. I guess it doesn't bother him that much after all !? I'll have to agree... Erzaa said: First of all, I feel like Mei and Yamato's relationship isn't moving forward anymore. I also feel like Mei isn't trying very hard to get it moving. (...) It's like they say, people feed off another's energy. They kinda do fit well together. I'll give you that. The rest I don't really agree but, yah. Doing cookies... ? It doesn't impress me and doesn't help moving the relationship forward a little. Mei isn't doing shit to keep him either. I feel like She's just moving along with Yamato. She doesn't seems interest in him the slightest. Doesn't ask question about what's happening. Easy for a new character to appear and think she can steal Yamato if Mei doesn't even look like she's in his life at all. Anyway... Good Luck, Mei ! Show this girl who's Yamato's Girl ! Where did the Fighting Spirit she showed in Episode 1 to defend herself went !? I'd love to see it back ! |

| Rival 2 has appeared. This is becoming pretty cliche and I hate characters like Megu. XD Annoying and superficial. Mei is starting to have Girlfriend insecurities now. All in all, the episode was average - a setback compared to the great previous episode. 3/5 |
| Hmm, so far still nothing special.. The ED makes me want to watch Honey and Clover again. Now thát is some real drama.. |
| Amazing but still so naive episode. I bet in the next one he will say he thouth about being with Mei while photoshoot. |
| Yamato looks so good with glasses o u o |
| I think part of the problem people are finding is the relatively quick pace of the anime--we seem on track to finish in one cour so we don't quite get to see how Mei is changing over time and development seems a bit rushed. While she's doing better, she still has a ways to go in terms of expressing how she feels to other people (although to be fair, even allowing herself to risk hurt by feeling about other people is progress) and seeking help or trusting her friends. And of course Megu is a bitch, but it looks like there's a bit of a backstory there too. Note that she recognized Yamato right away, even before introductions were made. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
draker said: No no no no no no, just no. Sukitte, what the hell are you doing? Not the overused lame love triangle, for God's sake. You were amazing so far, so why this shit now? Is adding some random love rival the only way to make drama? Come on, you can do better than this! It's not a love triangle, trust me. It's just Megu being a bitch on her part. Yamato will always be attracted to Mei, he makes that very clear. |
MM-Rosiie said: Loved Yamato's rejection. :D Lol... when he did that my first thought was "Owned." Episode was kinda slow, but I felt bad for Mei at the end having to watch Yamato, who she's already insecure enough about, do that photo shoot with Megu. Ending an episode with her in tears is cruel though. Now I gotta wait a whole week again. Blegh. |

| poor mei... FUCK MEGU! yamato was in the right when he bitched her out in the beginning, shouldve kept doing it -__- that wouldve set her straight real quick |
 <img src="http://i47.tinypic.com/2mw85l2.jpg" /> |
| I don't like this new girl already! Anyone who asks out a guy knowing they have a girlfriend and say they don't care is just a freaking tramp! UGH! Even though she said sorry the next day she clearly has not backed off. I hope someone sets her straight soon. |

Is adding some random love rival the only way to make drama? Come on, you can do better than this! This just officially becomes like a super-fictional and typical shoujo product when the hot boy coincidentally meet a super model, his girl friend(also happens to be the female protagonist) feels sad+depress, add in the melodrama. Mediocre episode tbh. |
| This is my second anime I'm watching that focus on the theme 'Romance". So I don't feel bored or like how others had felt. Though it is predictable and typical(like what others had said), as long as the anime is able to make me feel sympathy with the character(in this case, Mei), I think it's good. Good thing that I gave anime that is about romance a try, despite having the feeling that it won't be good before watching this anime. |

Bowl_of_Noodles said: Come on Mei! If she realized how much Yamato actually cared for her, she wouldn't be running into these problems. You can't blame her though, she's been used to being the ignored/lonely/inferior person for nearly her entire social life. EXACTLY.. Omg.. :< |
 |
| This anime has such a peaceful aura around it & megumi has ruined it. |

Shinimiras said: Ok, Mei has become an alien in my eyes. Who the heck identifies accurately what they're feeling but not why they're feeling that way? lots of people actually. like me. i can a times understand i'm sad, but not know why because emotions can have layers to them and it sometimes takes time to identify why you feel like crud. i don't mean to get long a winded, but while back a girl got a higher grade than me on a math exam, and suddenly bam! i was sad. didn't feel like eating, couldn't sleep felt sluggish. i understood i was sad, but why was i so sad? it was just an exam, a pretest at that, and people score higher than me in math all the time. it really shouldn't have made me so sad. it took hours like in bed for me to finally realize, i wasn't sad because the girl had scored higher than me on the exam. it was the events that happened before and after i received my score on the exam that made me feel so helpless. all in all, due to events i felt replaced, a waste of space, not because i scored lower on the exam but for other reasons. tl;dr : not everyone has straightforward ideas about their emotions, and this comes from someone who is most often described as caustic and unemotional. besides that, i really loved this episode. it was sweet and all the yamato/mei moments had me smiling. now i want to read the manga and find out what megu-chan does... 5/5 for this ep. |
Yui_Haruna said: ALL girls are trouble ;)So, this is the rumored Megu? Looks like trouble. |
 |
| Looking forward to see how Megu character develops and whether she becomes a legitimate threat to Mei and Yamato's relationship. I am thinking more like Mei will eventually sabotage it herself even if she does get a push from Megu. Every single aspect of this relationship is completely new to her, her feelings might end up betraying her in the end. |

This Megu character has that evil I'm-Going-to-steal-you're-boyfriend-away- from- you vibe. |
 |
| Mei really should speak her mind more to Yamato and avoid uncomfortable situations. |
tohzuki said: Wow Megu is finally here, I can finally start bitching with a reason. I never liked her... and I like her even less now that she's animated lmao I've been waiting for her to come out just so I can say how much I dislike her. Poor Mei, I wish I could hug her. I want that Megu to freaking disappear. |
I am a sucker for romance!!!! ] |
| I already dislike the new girl Megu. Especially her entrance little "Bitch" Shallow move at the front of the school. Time to start bitching! |
 |
| Megumi crashed and burned in her 1st attempt to get Yamato. xD I guess it wouldn't be much of a love story without a bit of competition.... nevertheless.... I hated it. |
| So, is the whole anime gonna be like this? As in a girls constantly interfere with the two and after they somehow stop her, the show moves onto the next bitch girl trying to cock block them? |

| I hope the entire anime won't be random girls coming to try and take Yamato away from Mei, it's already getting old. I honestly get a little frustrated whenever Mei lets her insecurity push her down as Yamato has proven again and again that he has eyes for her and only her, yet at the same time her insecurity is completely justified and understandable. It's funny though, by Sukitte Ii na yo standards Mei as a below average looking girl yet I think she's the cutest of all the girls so far. Kind of seems like the photo shoot thing is just the first blow from Megumi, like she's saying "I am the light and you're nothing more than an insignificant shadow. Know your place." or something. Like others have said Mei's feelings of insecurity might be her undoing. Megumi seems like a deceptive, manipulative bitch who'll do anything to get what she wants (in this case Yamato) and characters like Mei are weak to those kind of characters. I hate Megumi and all that but what bothered me the most in this episode was how nonchalantly Nakanishi and Asami behaved. Asami practically pushing them together (albeit unintentionally) and Nakanishi (can't remember if Asami said anything) saying out loud right infront of Mei how they looked like a real couple and good together. Considering how Mei helped Nakanishi and Asami get together you'd think they'd be a *little* more considerate. So until they redeem themselves they're on my hate list. Seems like I'll be grinding my teeth in frustration in episode 7 aswell. |
| Alright, this cliche couldn't missing out. Almost every romance/school-shoujo has such a situation with a rival. Megu reminds me of Ume from KnT with a mix of Ami from Toradora. Typical egotistical attitude - Couldn't expect less from a model. However, I think that Mei shouldn't leave Yamato like that-- "It's okay, there is no need for us to return home everyday together." Not to force him either, but many times, it is like she isn't showing much of interest because she is scared. That is Megu's chance & now I wonder how Mei will face this sort of situation. At least I hope Yamato won't join the agency... Because, I bet after the photoshoot, they are going to beg him to become their model. Also, I hope in the end that Megu won't become friends with everyone. |
| It can't be more cliche than that... |
 |
| UM. OH WOW. Sigh. There's always a fucking twist like this that just makes you cringe. I don't blame Mei at all for having feels of jealousy. This is bullshit. Complete bullshit. I wonder what happens next man, UGHHGHGGH. |

| Mei is actually annoying me to no end, sometimes her actions and thoughts make me think she deserves losing him IMO Megu was straight to the point, I don't know whether her real target was to get him to model or actually have him as her BF, but for a strong main character he rejected her which was damn cool I think this is another typical Shoujo anime full of mis-understandings |

I thought the same thing about her two so-called friends. They've obviously forgotten how Mei helped them out. I somehow find their brand of friendship quite shallow and I see why Mei felt the way she did about friendships in the beginning. |
| Didn't Megumi only move there after she met Yamato? :S I don't remember that well anymore... But I think he didn't outright reject her in the manga, that was awesome~ This episode was sure horrible for Mei... ;( |
| This was so frustrating to watch... God. :( Aaaargh. |
| The addition of a "rival" is just retarded. It's almost laughable how they're trying to make it look like this new girl could actually somehow take Kurosawa away from Mei. |
 |
| Megumi doesn't fit in properly at all, this was a bad move from the author. We all know that Yamato won't leave Mei because of something stupid like this. I wonder if Mei will change because of this, she really is passive right now but I'm sure she loves Yamato and she should be more open about it. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| I really hate girls like Megumi in real life. Girls who only worry about their appearance and when confronted with something, try very backhanded methods to get what they want. She was such a giant fake when she was trying to be modest about her modeling career. 5layer said: The addition of a "rival" is just retarded. It's almost laughable how they're trying to make it look like this new girl could actually somehow take Kurosawa away from Mei. Since when has a rival taken been able to successfully break up a plot pair in a shoujo? We all know that Mei will end up with Kurosawa, but it's more about how they overcome these obstacles. Not only this, but rivals eventually tend to push the couple closer together, which I can only assume will happen within the next few episodes. |

Omniknight said: Still, extremely overused plot device and it wasn't even done well here considering how impossible a relationship between Kurosawa and Megumi would be. At least in a lot of other shoujo, a relationship with the rival isn't entirely impossible to imagine.5layer said: Since when has a rival taken been able to successfully break up a plot pair in a shoujo?

| I like the manga and that's why I watch the anime. But I didn't think that my hate charakter appear so fast TT_TT I mean the seiyuu did a really great job for Megu and that's why she's more annoying -.- Mei, I'm really sorry for you... And why isn't Aiko there? I really like the friendship between Asami, Aiko and Mei and Aiko also saw that Mei cry at the photo shooting! Hach, it's so sad... I wish they could do more episodes so we can see the other people oder pairings, too! >.< |
