The moment between akane and yamada was really a highlight, starting to enjoy this show and the visuals are good as always.

I watched this episode yesterday but forgot to update my status :( Yamada's rizz was offffff the charts omg!! The ending of the episode forced me to start reading the manga!!! Poor runa is having a rough time at the school due to being insecure. Eita and Takeo had fun at the festival which was cute to see. But omg I didn't think Yamada noticed Akane when he went outside of his classroom, ugh that was so smooth. And again when he went running after Akane after embarrassing her then proceeded to say her name!!!!! He's so freaking smooooooth!! Why am I blushing? omg

I actually find it kind of funny that those girls would create a crowd just because Yamada is walking with a girl :"D If they look at them or stare at them from afar then I think it's a pretty normal thing to happen (especially since Yamada doesn't seem to have any friendly interactions with the girls in his school), but to create a crowd? Ahahaha, you're too cool to be real, Yamada~

But this was a cute episode. I didn't expect Yamada to think of Akane as Takane no Hana ;D

Good episode, probably the best one so far. Akane is such a cutie.

Glad Yamada is finally having some moments and not being a charmless dunce.

The way Akane expresses her feelings and how Yamada are receiving them it starting to feel really charming and wholesome, I didn't get hyped for this anime at first glance, but as the show goes on I feel like I need to go for the manga because I'm really loving it.

I loved that Yamada chased after Akane twice, and both times people looked after him in shock, like "OMG is that really him?!"

I also like how tentative the attraction is. I feel Akane is more intrigued by Yamada, like he is so quiet and stoic, but at the same time he's honest and matter-of-fact. Like she can sense he won't BS her, and any show of emotion from him is like a sense of accomplishment for her.

And for Yamada, he's so drawn to Akane's brightness and light. She's so transparent about her emotions and how her emotions get her into all sorts of situations, and I guess he is also intrigued by that since he calls himself a boring guy.

At this point it just feels like both are drawn to each other and they're still figuring out what exactly they're feeling, and I think the anime is doing a good job at depicting this. It keeps me waiting for that definitive "Yes, I like him/her!" moment.

Best part was Okamoto being supported by all the bros, even when the girls were hating him.

That’s right, what a goat behaviour that is!

SPOILER - On a side note, that’s Tenza’s VA who voices him (same VA from Jigokuraku) and I really miss his character already who’s also a goat character in that series, he’s someone who we root for!

the adaptation is still good, and I'm haoppy they kept the original meanings (at least they did for my country language sub)

Is that the great romance development everyone was talking about? I can name at least 5 better ones that doesn't have a high number of members and a good score like this. Not saying the show is bad though.

No, it's not this one. assuming they will still animate 3 chapters per episode, from ep 10 until ep 13 you will see way more development.

Anyway, If only it'd get a 2nd cour/season. There are plenty of interesting and good developments in the manga that would look great in anime (especially chapter 69 XD)

We finally at the starting line but honestly the slow burn makes a lot of sense since these two were literally strangers at the beginning. They also don’t have many opportunities to create romantic moments between them ( just yet ) considering they don’t see each other as much compared to other common middle/high school or childhood friends couple tropes. Also they’re a young adult couple, so actually building on the relationship first is a lot more ideal and a better direction story wise then just making them have feelings for each other at first sight/ right off the bat. I appreciate that the story is actually putting in effort to build this relationship in a more natural and relatable setting, makes their feelings come off more genuine in a way. Something I really like about this series.This episode on the other hand was done so well, the ‘your like a prize, I can’t reach’ or ‘your like a flower on top of a mountain’ line was amazing. Yamada’s rizz just sky rocketed with the way we finally get to see how he actually admires Akane. Also Yamada pretty much blurring out everyone and everything around him and focusing on Akane was such a nice touch. The fact that he said it would be an honour for him to date Akane cause he doesn’t really think so highly of himself ( he literally called himself dull/boring ) and yet was still able to say something like that very honestly, was precious. Then Akane blushing was seriously the most cutest thing I’ve seen all week. Add the background music with shojo affects during those cute romantic moments and you have a great episode

P.S: The siblings unintentionally being best wingman/wingwomen was perfect, love these two

Yamaha seems so dull to me. I do not find anything interesting in this guy.
Luna is a good character for me simply because i love to hate her oh my god such a irritating brat
Eita is fun to watch always refreshing
That bit about the "joke" was interesting and the part when she confront him, were good
Visual comedy didn't worked for me this episode and I usually like this stuff
Overall an average episode with savings in animation and some good scenes.

Pretty neat episode, we get to see some cool romance in Yamada's school, Eita joke really did fuck up Akane but at least it was pretty funny seeing their reactions, in addition to them kinda developing a nice romance that might evolve into something real in the next few episodes ? Only sad thing is the amount of outsourcing that can be seen in this episode visuals. Excited for next week episode !

I like everything, ok

I wonder if Tusbaki also likes Yamada because she seems a little --- when Yamada was talking to Akane and then when he was chasing her. Maybe a love triangle or something but it was another cute episode. Also, Yamada likes Akane... I had no doubt in my mind. Who doesn't like a girl like her?

I'm so happy Eita opened up the conversation about Akane and Yamada dating even if it was a joke. It brought us a lot more clarity as to where both characters stand with one another. I squealed from happiness when Yamada basically told Akane he sees dating her as an honor and out of reach for him...HCCJASKSDKASKAHKSHKAC That's a confession as far as I'm concerned. And one I've never really seen in any romance I've personally watched before. Very upfront and said very matter-of-factly. Also the way he literally RAN after her. Almost instinctually. SO CUTEEEEE!!! He is literally chasing this girl. Cant blame him. Akane is so ADORABLEEE!!

Omg same I was squealing with overjoyed and just happiness that whole part , this just sealed this anime as my fave this season, was already a big contender but after this episode it took the spot , I'm hoping to have more scenes like this and I will be reading the manga after this season ends cause God knows if we're gonna get s2 and I will wanna see more of their story , I already have the manga bookmarked on my site I read manga so I know it gets updated
