Kibe my man what a MVP. Kibe best bro. O/

Good, Kazuya's first thing he did was drop everything and jump straight in the water to rescue Chizuru!

Kibe is the real deal in this episode. What a great friend Kazuya has.
Chizuru being the most beautiful once again. Mami still a bitch.
That ending... my girl Chizuru fell off the deck. Well we saw Kazuya jumping to save her. That's a good thing.

I think we can all agree that the best character in the show is my man, Kibe! He should get more screentime.

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

I hate to admit that I’m enjoying this too much. The story is pretty much what we seen before. The characters are somewhat interesting but still they feel very eh. The side characters have no depth to them and only exist to only show that X character has a social life and to fill in the character’s history.

I am really perplexed at all of the hate this show is getting.

People are acting like Kazuya kicked their dog and like the anime shot it in the head. Kazuya is a self-conscious, spineless, and selfish character (by design) by nothing he has done so far is nearly egregious enough to deserve all of this vitriol. There's even reviews giving the anime incredibly low scores after only 4 episodes.

The series (at least where I've gotten up to in the manga) is a mostly innocuous romcom that follows the dynamic of the relationship between Kazuya and Chizuru and the antics they get into as a result of their relationship. It's not a masterpiece of anything, but it's perfectly serviceable for what it's trying to be. I don't get why people are getting so incredibly buttmad over it.

Whoa, i thought Mami was Kazuya's childhood friend who dumped him, but it turns out Mami was introduced to Kazuya by a common friend...............

So, finally someone who was able to knock some sense into Kazuya's wishy washy ways with women. Nice one Kibe, you could've beated Kazuya to a richer pulp so that he'll consider being a herbivore for life, cu'z dickwands like him don't deserve to propagate...But then again Mizuhara is as wishy washy as Kazuya, at first she ought to be happy that her services to him will end and next she having feelings for him....

First things first: Kibe best m8 of the season. What a nice friend. I feel kind of bad when he called Mizuhara to talk. I misjudged him and realize the shame about it. That's what a true friend is supposed to be. It was really heartwarming when he spoke about the past to Mizuhara... the very beginning of the friendship between Kazu~ and Kibe.
Besides all that, the ending was, somehow, inspiring. Kazu growth so much in this episode that's, actually, a surprise and a welcome one. I wonder how things will turn around for that course of action, still, I already can say that it seems really predicable. In general, was a very good episode indeed.

Actually, as much as I hate the main character, his friend has no right to go off like that and then talk to the 'girlfriend' like that behind his back. He is right to shout out at Mami, though. And that whole group should have dropped her after how she behaved in the bar. But she's the best thing about the show. The only character who offers any mystery or needs any kind of explanation. I think her issues have to be resolved at some point and that's more interesting than the rest of plot put together.

Say what you want bout Kazuya but, he ain't a bad person. He does make questionable decisions but his behavior towards Mami is completely understandable. He also has the balls to confess to his friends that they are "breaking up" not many can do that and he jumped to save Chizuru without a second thought.

Kibe is a massive bro though, what a great friend.

After hating Kazuya and Mami with so much passion through the first three episodes I binged the manga up to the latest chapter. Right here is when it actually starts getting good, so I'm actually excited for the series now. Great adaptation too, but I think the soundtrack makes Kazuya seem scummier than he actually is.

Really,dude I was not able to handle this series with same stuff going on in every chapter.Dropped at 90.Does it get better than that or what?

I thought so but if you didn't like it at 90 chapters then you probably wouldn't at 150.

I despited NTR. But since today I'll able to tolerate it if I just imagine that every NTR's guy is Kazuya.
Kibe and Mami are only good characters in this show.
I support Mami and I hope she'll retake MC and dump him once more with disgust face toward him so he will get mental boom.
I wanted light heartwarming rom-com.
I got bullshit level of simp mc.
Sad. Worst anime of this summer.
Also I love Openning. Awesome work peggies/OP director.

Seriously how tf is this so popular, watched the 4 episodes in a moment to see why this was popular, and honestly other than the main girl being incredibly cute, the romance here is pure shit, Mami-chan and the mc are as stupids as rocks, every other character seems to be stupid too since they can't differenciate a person with or without glasses.

And yeah, the MC has an incredible high level of simp towards someone that clearly played with him, and this right here seems that a lot of people don't understand, that going back in a relation with someone that played with you is toxic af, he is just that stupid, that's why he gets (and deserves) the hate, even when his best friend tries to put some sense into him, he completly ignores it and still goes full simp.

Kibe and the grandma are a few of the only good things from this anime, the animation is great too.

Wow, I've been watch so many characters, but I've to best character here, Kibe from this anime and Kimura from Karakai Jouzu no Takagi-san...they're both amazing, supporting their each friends to pursue love (they didn't even get anything from it). What I really appreciate from Kibe is that he doesn't even take the advantages to pursue Chizuru, but support her with Kazuya, I almost cry...really amazing personality. And yeah, I can just say that Mami is trash, yeah trash...hate her character. I don't know why Kazuya likes her...

While it's true that the boy has trouble treating a girl and more when the ex "apologizes" and wants to come back... and put Mizuhara aside... I get it. But you can't forget your ex just because they lasted at about a month, I don't know. Clearly Mami is a manipulator but the boy doesn't even realize it.

Seriously??!!

Kazuya is still trash as ever and choosing Mami over Chizuru. Literally Chizuru is the best girl and Mami is just jealous and Kazuya does not belong to her. He also needs to grow a pair and not be childish.

Kibe is so woke like I am so glad that he put some sense into Kazuya mentally and physically. Chizuru is slowly liking him tsundere style I'm so excited.

I am also so happy that Kazuya dropped Mami to save Chizuru because she fell into the water. Can't wait for the next episode.

I don't know why everyone is saying Kibe is so good and a good friend, he really sucks.

He does nothing but rag on Kazuya over and over, even in front of the person he's dating. Then, everything boils over to a point where he hits Kauya in front of everyone, saying how Kazuya is pointless. He even knee Mami is leading him on the entire time and said nothing. He lets Kazuya fall down a slippery slope and condemns him. He should try to be more helpful than calling Kazuya a virgin, brainless idiot all the time. It was a pointless scuffle that didn't need to happen if he just told Kazuya in the first place that Mami is two faced and is leading him on. It all makes me think Kibe is jealous of Kazuya.

He ruins the show for me constantly like the idiot friends from Hajimate no Gal.

I liked the fight scene and like the others said, the boys language to open up themselves is through fighting.

Kazuya is so lucky to have a bestfriend like Kibe, hereally cares about him even if he knew that Kazuya is loser at the start and being persistent onto little things like tha story that he told him to Chizuru. It's really sad that he is being too delusional a lot of times that at the end of the day he always leads himself to the wrong conclusions.

Cliffhanger episode but we are gonna have a hotspring one.

man this really has one of the most unlikable casts I have seen in anime lmao

Mami is the worst kind of human though. Didn't expect someone to be worse than Kazuya tbh.

I don't really get why people are praising Kibe either. He doesn't understand the situation and nothing he says is even true lol. He basically just acts like MC didn't care at all about Mami when its obvious she deserves far more shit for playing with his feelings.

I just love anime like that :D

The only thing I dislike is that they put more than 2 girls for one guy and mostly make 3 episodes for each, when what you really want is see full story of the first girl.

I just hope that all the other girls will make Chizuru want to be with Kazuya. She is out of reach for him right now. I think Kazuya really wanted to be with Chizuru, but he knows he has no chance due to the way they met, but the story of them living together hints that this is the one for happy end.

No one really would want cunning bi*hy Mami. The other two looks like tsundere imouto type - Ruka, shy clumsy - Sumi. Maybe that Sumi can win my hearth, but I bet still first one will be Chizuru.
btw what a great name Chizuru is
(づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ ちゅっ ちゅっ キス (´。✪ω✪。`)

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;)

It's really nice to have a good friend who will always back you up and beat you so hard when you are wrong. Kibe even called out annoying Mami.

That's some manly move from Kazuya, jumping out of the boat without thinking just to save Chizuru. And onsen episode is up next!
