Good development with the new characters, especially how MC is socializing more and more doing some group activities with all her friends outside, I really like that timid glasses girl, she's cute

This series is so wholesome. It's really getting at not judging a book by it's cover. Really looking forward to how these character dynamics grow.

This is the kind of thing I was hoping for. Different people from polar opposite styles of life finding middle ground and growing to know one another. I look forward to more of this.

I love glasses girl and blonde girl, I can totally understand glasses girl and the way blonde girl handled the situation was amazing! She seems to be very smart in understanding situations and others feelings.

Kurume and Murashige's friendship always be my favorite trope of friendship ngl. "the most popular girl" and "a bookworm archetype" being long last friend is always great.

Man this anime it's so cute and makes me feel so comfy and warm inside! I really love the characters interaction here, they feel so genuine and fun! Related a lot to Kurume and wish I could have friends like she did in high school too  😭 Also hope that Egashira can warm to the rest soon... she seems like a lonely girl I would say

Really love the addition of Kurume, she was just introduced and had a lot of good moments this episode, the bests imo were when she was enjoying being together with Shima and Mitsumi at Starbucks, as well as when she warmed up to Murashige which was partly thanks to Mitsumi for bringing them together with popcorn lol, I feel like these two could end up getting very close over time, very heartwarming moments for sure. I also found her to be very relatable.

I also loved Mitsumi’s bits in this one, her enjoying boba for the first time was really funny and cute, and I loved her reflection at the end on enjoying places because of the people you spent time there with, it’s definitely true, I also want to throw in that it’s not just the people, but the things you enjoy doing there as well.

Wow! didn't like Mitsumi at first but she turned out the type of people who bring others together. Very optimistic personality which has innocent and clean intention toward others.

Another nice episode. As expected of a 3rd episode everything is now set up and the characters all on stage for the events to come. I really like how PA Works set up the tone of the story in which they are putting in focus the development of the characters thru how they grow interacting with each other and not putting front and center the love polygons that might form.

Common I want more episodes soon!

That's how I feel after finishing every episode of Skip & Loafer, it's so interesting that the normal life of bunch of high schoolers can put you into relaxation mode but maybe that's where the depiction enters which is pretty natural in the case of S&L

Another 5/5 episode

The rise of Makoto!

And so we come to the end of volume 1 of the manga. After the first episode of this anime, I binged the first 6 volumes of manga in one weekend. I've really become addicted to this show! And I'm glad I picked up the manga. The translations vary in places. Sometimes the manga does a better job with translation, and other times the anime nails it!

Good episode. I must say, this anime has one of the most realistic depictions of high school teens that I've seen. I bet all of us have seen many Kurume's and especially Egashira's back in our high school times. 

Egashira seems to suffer from an inferiority complex as seen in this and last weeks episode, as she's always comparing herself to people. She's also a fake friend to our MC as well, only putting up with her because it gets her in contact with Sousuke. She's subtle but Murashige picked up on her fast, I suspect there will be a confrontation eventually. 

Murashige on the other hand is a genuinely good person, which broke the stereotype that the pretty/popular girls= mean girls. She seems to be the most emotionally mature one of the group so far. 

Kurume is the timid and soft spoken girl who's only company is books. She has been teased by mean girls in the past and assumed Murashige was one so she kept her at a distance. With Murashige's healthy communication and Mitsumi breaking the ice she was able to achieve growth in record times lol. I'm happy for her.

I hope next episode focues on either Sousuke or Murashige, they are currently the most interesting characters to me right now.

4.5/5

This anime just gets more wholesome with every episode. 

Mitsumi got acquainted with Kurumi san in this episode and Kurume being a dynamic character makes this episode better than the others.

This is a great season of anime, after each episode I watch I have a hard time deciding on which one is my favorite and Skip and Loafer is certainly a contender.

I don't know how anyone can not like this show. The characters are great, which is the biggest thing in a show like this. Everything is playing out so well. It's wholesome, it's funny.... This show is fantastic. If you say otherwise you'd better have a damn good argument.

I really wish the one girl could find a way to amp herself up without trying to take others down... Im glad she isnt openly being antagonistic anymore, but she is still being kinda toxic. She isnt even trying to be friends with the group, just latching herself onto Shima and hoping to get his attention.

I swear Mitsumi could fit in as a main character in a horror series with the way she kept on startling Kurume! XD

Along with that amusing gag amongst others, this episode had some solid character interactions and developments. Mitsumi trying out a boba drink for the first time was very cute while hanging out with Kurume and Shima. While it was unfortunate that they couldn't join the student council, at least Kurume got new friends pretty quickly.

Not surprisingly, she got even more friends when Egashira, Yuzuki and a few others join up for a group hang out for the day. Once again, Yuzuki looked beautiful with her chosen casual clothing and Egashira's outfit really suited her nicely. Thanks to Mitsumi's natural charisma and charm, Kurume was opening up to trying new things, like with the salted caramel popcorn, as well as trying to get to know Yuzuki better, who still remains a down-to-earth character that matches well with her beautiful looks and fashion sense. =)

Hopefully it won't be long before Egashira becomes more comfortable with the others sooner or later, so I wouldn't be surprised if there's an episode focused on her coming up soon.

I really liked that they continue to expand secondary characters. I hope episode 4 or 5 will move the story between 2 main characters a bit too, but I don't mind that other characters have screen time that allows creators to make them about more than 1 thing. There is an exception - the girl who is jealous, but I think she will be developed a bit more later (with probably a lot of crying?). And of course back story on the main guy that is teased, but almost nothing is shown is probably going to be shown. But for now it works for building tension that is in the background. One in foreground is often handled within the epsiode.

Mitsumi's reaction to her first Boba is 100% legit :D

I really liked one of the last lines when she says: "Memories of places are memories of the people you went there with". That's pretty deep (and true).

I'm hooked. I think it's because the MC Mutsumi is such a pure soul, all innocence and naivete. Almost child-like, when compared to her classmates, it's hard to imagine a mean bone in her body.

I hate how relatable this is getting. ngl it's pretty good but everything about the other characters bring back so many memories. Without Bocchi The Rock's satirical monologue and comedic antics i am just getting 2nd-hand embarrassment. But Mitsumi always comes in clutch because her antics are very entertaining and cute also. 

Being pitied, ignored, and judgment from other people is really what causes me social anxiety and this series is like a mirrored version of my experiences except for the resolution part, its never resolved that easily. But, objectively its a really good show this season so imma continue watching

Even with the most different people from you, you can create a unique bond. Do not close yourself off to meet new places and people, or to try new things. Living unforgettable moments with his friends and falling in love with... Shibuya.
