----------------------------------------
Date at amusement park.

lol @ not letting her use otaku words. I wonder how much they would earn (too many already).

So hard to communicate while wait time other than topic on otaku.

Main girl is afraid of scary thing, but pretend not to.

It seems like senpai pair is there, too, and got switched because of main girl being afraid.

Both main guy and senpai girl are not afraid, while main girl and senpai guy are afraid... Afraid pair and cool pair lol~

Main guy feels the same even though he wants to have different date, and senpai girl told him to slow down.

He understands why she crossed her arms instead of holding his arm when scared.

Main guy was afraid of main girl not happy with him, but she was in pain of the no-otaku words rules.

Main girl gave him pierce.

They hugged (or he hugged her out of ease because he was thinking too much about being a normal couple).

I love Wotakoi. I love it so much! Hirotaka and Narumi are relationship goals! Their date was absolutely adorable. It's not a big, burning love yet but they definitelly feel something for each other! That moment when it seemed like Naru is breaking up with Nifuji was scary, though. But nope, they are still an adorable couple and I love it!
Okay, real talk:

Fantastic episode if you ask me, that ending was just the best! Really hoped for a proper kissing scene but that hug was even more powerful for some reason!

Really lovely date and that ED was just great as well. One thing I definitely can say is that this is one of the better romance anime I've seen in a while!

Let's see what's next though.

Lovely episode, Hirotaka is ready for some rewards on Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee by still playing Pokémon Go. lol

Their little penalty game was pretty funny, but the haunted ride with Kabakura and Narumi was the best, they are adorable dorks.

So I guess there was progress, Hirotaka is now fine with going at their own pace.

Why does Hirotaka want Narumi to feel nervous around him? To prove that she has feelings around him? Why can't they just be their usual selves? Personally, I've never been in a long relationship with someone I couldn't get along with and felt intimidated by or was nervous around. He shouldn't try to be like other couples because they're different from the norm. That's why they're otakus.

I'm also pretty sure Narumi is more experienced than him, she's already probably had sex with her previous boyfriends and I wouldn't be surprised if Hirotaka's still a virgin. He can't keep up and he shouldn't pretend to be someone he isn't. At least he has acknowledge his own immaturity and will most likely grow from here on out. I think he probably didn't get into any relationships because of his crush on Narumi which is pretty sad. He should've met more people, he probably would've met a better girl than Narumi too.

I'm not sure but I think there was no ED song in this episode? I only saw their amusement park pics.

Oh man, that was such a wholesome episode, especially that ending scene. Narumi really scared me for a moment with the whole "let's end this" :'D
It was a cute idea from Narumi, even more so with her having matching earrings as well. I like where this is going, a more serious episode is what we really needed. Hopefully it won't be the last either.

Male MC needs to up his game. He shouldn't be worrying about the charming girl dumping him. She has the upper hand here and male MC needs a momentum shift. He took some good initiative early on but now is faltering. He already kissed her at home, why is he wimping out with a hug now?

I never see male MC smile or laugh. He doesn't deserve the girl. Idiot.

They are both stuck in how they were in middle school, the pair need an intervention or something to progress their relationship, as it is they only seem to be "dating" in name only, sad for them.

Cute episode! I seriously thought Hirotaka was going to kiss Narumi XD so why didn't it happen?! That's so unfair! DX
Even so, their date was entertaining. I felt bad for Momose... she is not herself if she doesn't talk about her favourite topic, anime. But somehow she got a little revenge ;P

I LOVE THIS EPISODE SO MUUUUCH. ~❤️

The real date has begun. Finally, I can see the romantic development between Hirotaka and Narumi! It's funny that they initially make a rule to have a punishment everytime they open a subject about otaku-related stuff. It's hilarious that Hirotaki-Narumi and Tarō-Hanako get switched up during the horror ride, and there are Narumi-Tarō and Hirotaki-Hanako moments instead! ~❤️

I SQUEAL AT THE PART WHERE IN HIROTAKI IS SUPPOSED TO KISS NARUMI. But it is a hug instead. Still, they are so sweet! They have couple earrings as a symbol of their love for each other! ~❤️

I like Hirotaki's flashback moments regarding the earrings.

I love the new ending song with date pictures. ~❤️

LOL @ THE POST-CREDIT SCENE!

Great episode. I really thought they're going to kiss, but in the end they just hug. I wonder whether Hirotaka wanted to kiss her but ended changing his mind because of his insecurities. For a moment I thought Narumi was suggesting they should break up, Hirotaka's reaction cleared any doubt about his true feelings.

The scene of Narumi and Tarou scared and screaming in the horror show was hilarious. Narumi had to cross her arms to avoid hugging Tarou. I died laughing when a moment later Tarou was following her example.

Narumi deserves better than Hirotaka. Fuck him for wanting her to act different and to actually be uncomfortable just because he is insecure.

At this point it really feels like some kind of incel's friend zone escape fantasy.

If you aren't sure where your relationship is headed, just open up and talk about it.

Dammit Narumi, not only taking the wrong person on the haunted house ride but also giving a heart attack to literally every viewer by saying she wants to end it while meaning the piggy bank thing. Real cute moment there at the end with the earrings.

I had lots of fun watching this episode, the sudden switch of couples during the ride and most important, the shift into Hirotaka’s and Momose relationship.

Sometimes we just want to reach others but in the end, we must accept our life and own pace. In the end, everything has an answer. The new ED is really cute! But now I realized the series is ending...

I don't understand the order of things in this anime at all. They're going out since the very first episode, yet this anime makes it look like kissing is some ultimate goal. In what universe do relationships between two young people look like this? Is this common in romance anime?

miss opportunity on complex relationship but still watchable. i mean you already kissed her in ep 2, so whats holding you up on holding her hand... But the fact that kabakura is a scarredy cat is so in line with his character. Plus no glasses Hana is refreshing...
