We shouldn't hate Ruka. She is too good for the MC.
We have to hate Kazuya for not break up with Ruka and for give her false hopes.

We're off to the races


Ruka has joined the battle!
The story is starting to pick up; with the crowdfunding/fundraiser being approved, and posted to gain traction for Chizurus movie. To Ruka joining in to help the project become successful, even with her worries that Kazuya has feelings for her (which he obviously does). This episode was quite slow compared to what we got in the manga, but when you're on episode two and you're already in full swing, trying to create a movie and have three people working on the project already.. something's going to give. We're slowly seeing Chizuru (I wish Kazuya would learn to call her that, instead of her alias.] develop feelings for our main character Kazuya. I wonder if this will be a slow development like the manga, or if they'll speed it up. I digress, progress is being made.

We've got our introduction to the best girl in the entire series, tying, if not beating, Chizuru.. ladies and gentlemen;
Yaemori, Mini


Her introduction is the funniest thing this manga has produced, like can you imagine being pulled into an apartment, to then see yourself in a seductive situation with a random girl, and then she realizes she's being way too easy going, then chills and tells you she's not into you in the slightest. This is the pinicle for Kazuya so far in the anime, just for him to get put on blast immediately. This is what I like to call; a reality check.

I do see the potential this season has; however I have a looming suspicion that this arc will be stretched to fit two seasons of Kanojo, Okarishimasu. (The third, and fourth season) Which if it isn't done right, could kill the best arc the manga has given us so far. Time will tell how this season goes, but hopefully.. it's better than the last two.

Comments that try and support/defend Ruka are crazy to me. Dude, she knows he doesn't love her. And even still she forces herself onto him and is manipulative. She put herself in that situation. She is the one choosing to continue it despite knowing it's a fake relationship. She is the worst in this series. She is a character that if died, I would shed tears of joy.

There's no way I love this anime too much, this anime is amazing in everything! a lot of people don't like him because of the protagonists, but we're clearly seeing an improvement in him. kanojo is a very fun, cheerful anime and makes you want to change your life, be someone better, besides wanting to be responsible and have a girlfriend haha. but seriously this anime is amazing

Despite her childishness and consistently assuming the worse, I still think Ruka is an angel. Props to Mizuhara for understanding the situation and letting him choose her cooking instead.

This episode really pushed the whole Kazuya and Mizuhara ship between the grandma and the neighbor. But the ending came as a surprise, as I don't recall Mizuhara ever wanting to see Kazuya that badly. And of course her secret slight disappointment that Kazuya didn't say her omelette instead. I'm liking that she's showing more of her feelings now.

Ruka joined them for two purposes, one she can help them out in some ways and second she can monitor them. Looks like her movie is finally starting to be made. Also wonder what impact the new girl will have on the story later on.

The first 10ish minutes of this episode annoyed the hell out of me... The whole "forced girlfriend" thing with Ruka is just there to shoehorn "drama" and is just making her character annoying for no reason. Kazuya continues to display that inadequacy that we've grown to expect and hate from him.

Very much agreed. At first the aggression was kinda cute and interesting but now it’s getting on my nerves

"Trash! Trash! Trash!" the anime is back and on a mission to trash it up to even greater heights. Love the vibe of this new cosplayer lady, along with the bombshell that is what the grandmother thinks about Kazuya. Kinda hard to choose between curry and that freakin' omelet, and especially with two lovely ladies cheffing it up like that. This is so bad it's DAMN good. One time (a week) for the BOYZ all summer long, baby! Y'all ready knowww!

I wonder what Chizuru was thinking about that food when she left his apartment, did she really think he said curry to not make more problems?

Granny Sayuri is great and I love what she told to Chizuru.

That new girl Yaemori is a blast! already love her :D She won't be joining the harem and I bet she will plot against Ruka, for the sake of ChizuruXKazuya. The harem plot was kinda bad in season 2, when Sumi started to show feelings towards MC, so I hope that more girls would become just like Mami or just friends or something. Ruka is really nice and also pretty, but if he want to be with Chizuru then he must end this fast with Ruka. Then maybe good plot for season 4 would be when they are finally together and another girl shows up to steal him and Chizuru fights back :D I do not read manga, and I don't want to start as season 4 is sure to come someday and knowing what will happen is bad for watching adaptation. at least for me

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'm seriously not joking when Mini IS the only good character in rag that knows Kazuya's view of things, she IS not Kazuya's love interest which is obvious in this EP but will definitely help him w advices, even thou Kazuya just constantly leave it instead of take it, as usual it's his trait that never changes

Yeah I forgot Ruka exists, and good thing too. That girl is as annoying as Mami. Also new girl has footage of the drama. What is she going to do with it absolutely nothing. Will this be brought up in the future probably not.

Anyways the fundraising is going good right now and Kazuma got a small victory from Mizuhara smiling and thanking him. Also yeah dude you have spent way to much money and time on her.

Streamer gal just seems like filler, i'd be surprised if mizu and kazu don't end up together. But damn where is best gal mami??? she needs to swoop in and make things interesting. Ruka is too naive to know she is being played by a beta male of all things lolz.

I love the role of the Kouhai girl(like Iroha, for eg.) so assuming she doesn't also fall in love with the MC, I might probably enjoy her presence.

Ruka is the definition of mindless messy drama entertainment, though Mizuhara can't quite hide her movie-making situation with Kazuya any further, which all is noticed by Yaemori.

Mizuhara backs Kazuya's claims with her intentions, though this is all to blame for the latter hiding this from her, not wanting to worry her. The "genuine" girifriend helping the both of them, they do need all the help they can get...though she's just very adamant on wanting to please Kazuya for her own benefits, which Mizuhara understands in the moment. Another one added to the fray, and through much negotiation, the movie is approved, and the crowdfunding begins.

The first part is done, though there's more to be done. Despite being against Mizuhara, Ruka gives her full support, though Yaemori comes attacking him out of a sudden, knowing the entire fiasco and being a threat to Kazuya and his movie-making work. Of course, this fascinates Yaemori...to ask Kazuya to call him Master, though she meant no bad intentions from the video shot. That said, her place is a cosplay and streamer haven out of the current zoomer era, yet she feels genuine about Mizuhara's love for him, which feels pretentious.

Yaemori is the only hope that this show has now, such a bubble.

mais um episódio maravilhoso... a Ruka-chan gosta de sempre estragar as coisas e se enteresa em participar, mas eu gosto dela.

ja a Mini ela é muito dócil, mas ela tem uma coisa que ela não consegue controlar,xD... ja que ela sabe de tudo, eu espero ver como vai ser a participação dela nos próximos episódios.

ultimamente a Mizuhara anda pensando muito nele.
