Eh, I'm not sure I like how this story arc is being handled. Instead of Pansy not liking Hose being shown as an inner flaw of hers, it's being made out that she's actually in the right in her hate. Saying Hose is a bad for being too good a person that it forces others to put his happiness before their own? I mean, isn't Joro kinda doing just that with Asunaro but without the obliviousness to her feelings? Seems a bit hypocritical and silly to me. |

Ilovebeanbag said: AsT5 said: dude please spoil me what sun chan does pleaseSoraSenpai said: The Pansy and Joro conversation at the end was really well done. That was a great moment for the development between those two. Joro's feelings for Pansy are increasing especially since he thanks Asunaro when she brings Pansy to her house. Garbage Sun-chan is back. People thinking Sun-chan will date Pansy are delusional. If anything Joro and Pansy will end up together int he last episode or at least be damn close to it. For those who have been thinking regarding what sun-chan will do I just wanna tell you You might hate him you just need to wait and watch(as a manga reader i kinda hate him) I was just wondering how will the director cover up 6 chapters of manga in one single episode Damm gonna wait and watch sun chan will date pansy(just to avoid hose) then there will be a baseball game between them sun chan,hose and joro joro wins and dates her(that was in the manga raws) sun gets gf in the manga i am kinda hoping an anime original ending lets see or else they might skip some parts of manga |

I still dont understand why Joro doesn't like Pansy yet. And what a twisted reason of Pansy to not like Hose. |
All the best people are crazy! |

loving the self-aware nature of this and how Joro actually sees romcoms from the audience perspective...however, a good number of characters being extremely forceful can be very tiresome |

No-one even touched their drinks in that cafe. Kinda feel bad for Hose; who knew that you could be too nice? Wonder what Sun-chan's thinking? |

I think having a character like Hose in this show is interesting, as it's so different to the show's general approach to characters. However, I think it's worked well in this episode, as it's allowed the show to challenge lots of aspects about the "perfect" harem protagonist that we've seen time and time again; I also find it interesting to see people reacting negatively to Pansy's dismissal of Hose's love here, given how much people usually complain about characters like Hose in harem shows. I also like that Pansy and Joro actually talked about the issue maturely, rather than it being used for drama based around misunderstandings or something like that. As an aside, I find it dumb how the school's response to the library struggling is to just close it, rather than thinking about why students aren't utilising such a valuable resource and how to encourage them to do so. I'm glad the drama shifted well away from that this week, though. |

So basically Pansy was just a girl who hates nice guys and prefers kuudere kind of guys like Joro. |

People really aren't putting any thought into what Pansy said about Hose, are they? Nor are they putting what she's said into a meta context about harems in general, even though this show has a distinct penchant for going meta by this point. It's not just "he's too kind and I hate him", it's more nuanced than that: Pansy doesn't like Hose because he's the kind of harem protagonist who is so kind that all the girls fall for him, but also so kind that he won't ever outright reject any of them either. Pansy knows that Hose is in love with her, so from her perspective he's just stringing Cherry and Tsukimi along and hurting them in the process. We see an example of Pansy disliking this kind of thing this earlier in the show when Joro accepts all of the girls' lunches rather than only one of them. On top of this, as the target of his feelings, Pansy feels the weight of the feelings of all the other girls who like Hose and seems to feel that, because of that, she can't reasonably turn him down no matter how much she wants to do so. Of course, it's easy to say from an objective standpoint that Pansy could do just that, but for the character it isn't that simple (and how boring would Pansy's character be if absolutely nothing phased her, as some people seem to want to be the case). All of this can also be looked at from a meta perspective too: in harems, the protagonists aren't typically allowed to outright make decisions as that would either end the show (and any future opportunities for merchandising, OVAs or what have you) or piss off most of the fanbase in the process (see the reaction to the most recent Quintuplets chapters as an example of this). By using Hose as an example of the standard harem protagonist and having Pansy reject him, the show is also positioning itself as a criticism of the harem genre itself: it criticises harems as being cruel for stringing the female characters along while allowing the male characters to enjoy their affections without ever having to be hurt or commit to anything. This is also why Joro is constantly framed in a negative light when he is "honest" and expresses his own desires for a harem, I presume. It's an interesting and bold stance to take, and given the popularlity of harem anime, I'm not at all surprised to see it prove unpopular. EDIT: Part of the issue here, if we scale back down to the characters, is that this whole situation is based on emotions rather than rational or objective arguments. So, from an objective perspective, Hose isn't "wrong", per se, but his actions have caused Pansy significant pain and distress, which is why the situation is so messy. We're being asked to empathise with Pansy here, but that doesn't make her objectively right, so it's not wrong to criticse her either, strictly speaking (I know that goes against the tone of how I opened this, but oh well). |

And another drama begun but with different characters (for a change !). Though it seems too big to be resolved in only a last episode, especially with the after-ED scene which makes me think this current drama will go further than expected. So... hoping for another season already, because this part of the story really looks promising ! |

That explains things really well! I was confused too, at first. xD But it's definitely a smart series. I wonder if Hose is supposed to be one of those "So nice he's intimidating" kind of characters...like one of those people whom it's impossible to say "no" to. That's probably it, right? |

I think that's more or less exactly it, actually; Hose's kindness creates an implicit pressure for everyone where, even if they have a problem with him or dislike him, they can't blame him for it. In fact, Hose is so kind that he unintentionally makes people feel guilty for having a problem with him; in Pansy's case, Hose is so kind to her through everything that she can't bring herself to hate him despite not wanting to be with him. But, because he loves her, she seems to feel an implicit pressure to be with him, partially because of that kindness but also because of the weight of all the other girls' feelings for Hose. I've also realised what "the road to hell is paved with good intentions" means in the context of this episode: Hose's kindness to the girls and refusal to outright reject them is borne out of good intentions, but all it does it cause them pain instead; by extension, Hose loving Pansy and helping her out here is based on good intentions, but as we saw all episode that just caused her distress and pain instead. |

More problems for Joro...or is it? The dependable classmate that he called, Hose, plus Cherry and Tsukimi...what is this becoming into??? To unravel this puzzle requires some train of thought, it's easy to see how Hose's good intentions while the NTR of both Cherry and Tsumiki can deride what has been established after all this time. And learning about how Pansy has developed this wall against Hose, a friend that doesn't understand others. It's NOT WRONG per se to help, but that intention led to a belief of "good intentions gone completely wrong", so neither good nor bad will be great enough to outset Hose from his motive.

And rounding this episode up, it's how that same "helping" notion sure fucks up the entire sequence of events, not to mention that helps (or rather, causes) disparity form within the entire cast right now. IMO helping people sure raises the effectiveness of the person having good motives, but it's up to the person to take advantage of that kindness and turn it into an entirely different thing a.k.a Hose, making it into that way where no one can criticise his actions. Quite a fast episode full of expositions and puzzles to match and complete, it's gonna be a doozy to mix-and-match all that love polygon to a resolution with the last episode next week. |

hikkiGOAT said: The road to hell is paved with good intentions? What did he mean? That inner monologue was so off. Recruiting Hose to help. Good intentions on Joro's part... Highway to Hell for Pansy. === So... those two girls did know Pansy. You know, the ones who "found" her book for Joro, knew how much it cost... and I still suspect of being the ones who trashed it in the first place. It seems they may not have known it was her copy at the time, but took out their frustrations with the whole situation involving Hose & Pansy on it in proxy, as it was a book they associated with her. I wonder if they have now put two and two together, and realized it really was her copy. ==== And... the comments concerning Hose that Tampopo made in Episode 9.5 now make total sense. |

I was going to make a long post to analyze this episode, but I think it can be summed up pretty efficiently by saying Pansy hates dense romcom protagonists because they don't realize the feelings of those around them. She just made her point in the most roundabout way imaginable with the "other side of people's feelings" and such. I also can't reconcile how she's upset with Hose for hurting those around him by not realizing their feelings for him, yet is fine with how Joro realizes the feelings of those around him and is stringing them along on purpose. I mean, he's outright admitted he wants to go for the harem route. |

phantomfandom said: This episode points out how Oresuki is different from other harem anime. In general harem anime the protagonist lacks awareness that he is in harem situation, but Joro is too awareness that he even breaks the fourth wall! well I would say the hypocrisy of Hose being like that is that the MC is also exactly like that. He sees women all around him who are trapped into loving him and he decides to be indecisive and trap them around him like that. If anything, the fact the MC is aware of that makes him even worse as a person. |

Yeah, that's what I didn't understand: how does too much kindness = fatality? It's because the guy is so kind and pure that you can't do anything against him The two girls who like him can't get with him because he likes pansy but they are ready to cuck themselves and get him with her Pansy doesn't like that but what can she do? On what ground can she criticize this amazing guy? She wants to get away but can't because there's no good reason too It's just like when Joro says that everything they said was right but something felt off... Sorry if that was a little convoluted but I hope you get what I meant I mean...isn't that their problem then?: There's no actual reason why they can't say anything against the guy. It isn't his problem. As Sumireko said, he is perfect. The problem is the effect he has on others. His perfection makes those two girls following him put themselves in pain for his good (in matters of love, one should be selfish, not selfless), it makes it hard to be honest with him, and it makes some like Sumireko feel uncomfortable. Him being perfect does not mean that he has a a positive effect on everything, especially not in the world that is imperfect. So yeah, their problem. But I think it should have been clear by now that most of these kids, Sumireko included, are very flawed human beings (with Hose being the polar opposite). Sumireko is the type that prefers people like Kisaragi who are flawed and a bit assholish, bug deep inside still good people. |

Experiencing someone's kindness is sometimes the most painful... I agree with Sumeriko on how Hose being perfectly kind can actually hurt others around him. |

Throughout the episode I was expecting Pansy to reveal that Hose is bad guy pretending to be good but now I really don't get Pansy, so what if the other girls are in love with him, is he supposed to love them back!? What exactly does she expect him to do!? I mean she says the reason she fell in love with Joro is because how she saw him getting a ton of food for Sun-chan after he lost the game, basically because he was being considerate, the same thing Hose is doing. |

"I don't have any friends" Damn, no need to hurt us viewers like that. Hose really took the spotlight as 'main character' there, he indeed seems to pure of a person. The logic of Hose's haremgirls really is wrong, just because Joro 'doesn't' like Pansy doesn't mean that Pansy will switch liking the person she loves. Seeing that after credit scene, I really hope Sun-chan will do something comedical or help Joro and not do something to make him the villain again...if only bench-kun could save the day... |

FOR DUMMIES WHO THINK HES A GOOD GUY AND SUMI A BITCH Hose, like Joro, has two distinct personalities, a Nice Guy facade and his True Self. Hose has perfected his personalities to a higher quality than Joro. Hose's Nice Guy facade is the face he puts on in public. In this form, he is technically perfect in every way, with exceptional manners and a blinding smile. His act is so convincing he has even fooled Pansy into believing he is truly a nice guy. Hose can use this Nice Guy persona to get away with virtually anything, since he always does things in a way where he cannot be framed as the bad guy. Hose's True Self is a manipulative and cunning schemer. While his Nice Guy persona acts as if his disregard for other people's feelings is accidental, the truth is that Hose simply does not care about other people. He is possessive and sees Pansy as his property. While Hose's Nice Guy facade is extremely well-polished, he is prone to letting his True Self show when he is angry. |

Seems a bit hypocritical and silly to me. difference Joro is not pursuing any of them romantically not making things clear to avoid hurting them but this guy is willing to hurt others to get 1girl, also he doesn't take no for an answer hes stalking her to the point she feels that she has to hide her beauty Nayrael said: RealTheAbsurdist said: DidiGetsRekt said: RealTheAbsurdist said: I don't get it: how does Hose "hurt" people by being kind? Although it is very interesting how Hose is basically the cliche dense harem protagonist. MegamiRem said: Okay this got a lot more interesting again and I was surprised to see Pansy shaken like that. I was thinking what kinda bad stuff they did to her for her to behave like that but turns out that too much kindness can be fatal too lol. Really looking forward to the last episode. Yeah, that's what I didn't understand: how does too much kindness = fatality? It's because the guy is so kind and pure that you can't do anything against him The two girls who like him can't get with him because he likes pansy but they are ready to cuck themselves and get him with her Pansy doesn't like that but what can she do? On what ground can she criticize this amazing guy? She wants to get away but can't because there's no good reason too It's just like when Joro says that everything they said was right but something felt off... Sorry if that was a little convoluted but I hope you get what I meant I mean...isn't that their problem then?: There's no actual reason why they can't say anything against the guy. It isn't his problem. As Sumireko said, he is perfect. The problem is the effect he has on others. His perfection makes those two girls following him put themselves in pain for his good (in matters of love, one should be selfish, not selfless), it makes it hard to be honest with him, and it makes some like Sumireko feel uncomfortable. Him being perfect does not mean that he has a a positive effect on everything, especially not in the world that is imperfect. So yeah, their problem. But I think it should have been clear by now that most of these kids, Sumireko included, are very flawed human beings (with Hose being the polar opposite). Sumireko is the type that prefers people like Kisaragi who are flawed and a bit assholish, bug deep inside still good people. +1 TrumpMD said: Stupid show. Hazuki obviously blows away shitty MC. Pansy has 0 reason to favor MC over Hazuki. Kill MC and make the show about pansy and Hazuki. Shows like this give false ideas to impressionable Japanese boys. Anoo-Domini said: I feel sorry for Hose he was too kind 2kind? what about her feelings? he doesn't take no for an answer hes stalking her to the point she feels that she has to hide her beauty Hose needs to take the hint and vanish no is no SJ7izm said: Basically, Pansy is a bitch. were u drunk or high when writing this? FOR DUMMIES WHO THINK HES A GOOD GUY AND SUMI A BITCH Hose, like Joro, has two distinct personalities, a Nice Guy facade and his True Self. Hose has perfected his personalities to a higher quality than Joro. Hose's Nice Guy facade is the face he puts on in public. In this form, he is technically perfect in every way, with exceptional manners and a blinding smile. His act is so convincing he has even fooled Pansy into believing he is truly a nice guy. Hose can use this Nice Guy persona to get away with virtually anything, since he always does things in a way where he cannot be framed as the bad guy. Hose's True Self is a manipulative and cunning schemer. While his Nice Guy persona acts as if his disregard for other people's feelings is accidental, the truth is that Hose simply does not care about other people. He is possessive and sees Pansy as his property. While Hose's Nice Guy facade is extremely well-polished, he is prone to letting his True Self show when he is angry. +1 You just said everything in my mind |

So finally we know why Pansy hides herself. Not only from Hose, but also not to be treated again like that. Though I'm pretty sure being beautiful has way more upsides than downsides, so doesn't make an awful lot of sense. Last scene looks like Oga is an asshole after all, well for me he never stopped being one tbh. Just seeing him and Pansy alone was weird, given how he threatened her that one time. |

I have to say, I understand what Pansy is saying, but still feel she is overreacting a little bit. The dude is still overall a pretty nice dude and he did originally help you out. Not to mention, it seems like he wasn’t a creep or anything. Like he asked you out 1 time and then was still trying to help you afterwards. |
