| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Looks like Ruka and Kazuya are a "couple" now. How awkward. The Christmas season also hits around this time. Kazuya had this cringe worthy face the entire episode while having delusions. Yeah, he's concerned about the guy Mizuhara is with. I can't believe he even blew his cover while following them. It's creepy and embarrassing lol Kazuya just can't get her out of his mind. |
 |
| This is all just a misunderstanding. I wonder what level exactly is Kazuya when it comes to stalking? I thought there would be an NTR sex scene and Chizuru would lose her virginity, but yeah you know. At least give it that Christmas tree kiss scene, damn it.  |
| XD Kazuya and Ruka chan are now a couple. Kazuya tries to follow Mizuhara but ofc being how dumb he is, his cover got blown.

| I find it hilarious how Snafu tugs at all my heart strings...and than this show tugs on a whole new set of emotions ranging from cringe to feeling sorry for someone .....all aboard the anime emotion express!!!! All in all a good episode, MC is somewhat growing and rather enjoyable to watch Edit: next week its looks like Ruka will be trying to force her way into being Main girl....should be spicy |

| Kazuya made a fool of himself again, this time in full stalker mode. Chizuru should have carved him a new one for that. And looking at the preview, still no sign of best girl yet. |
 |
| Kazuya is just a complete idiot and his stalking was just creepy. Ruka isn't giving Kazuya time to breathe. XD |
 |
Don't hate kazuya for stalking her, he's just doing it for the bros. |
 |
| lmao i really thought umi was going to be her brother then i got really creeped out when he had that phone call. the texts between kibe and kazuya are hilarious. |
| Misunderstandings can be fun sometimes. But when it's whole episode of watching obviously mistaken fool getting more and more awkward, its not really nice. Tho I'll admit I rather expected him to be family member and phone talk to be entirely unrealted (maybe some pet he is selling?). Ruka deserves better too. |
| Stalking level : Kazuya hahaha Interesting episode, with Kazuya thinking every time more in Chizuru, this start to center even more in their Relationship/non relationship |
| While Ruka is really cute and so, I think I like Chizuru more. |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| Man, Kazuya is so annoying. I was expecting so much a very loud FUCK YOU KAZUYA YOU'RE A BAG OF SHIT DON'T EVER APPEAR IN FRONT OF ME AGAIN from Chizuru. All he knows is say sorry every episode, I'm tired of him. |
| Imagine how boring this world would be without Japan - a comment at youtube |
| Still pretty annoyed how dumb Kazuya is by stalking her. But Kazuya is slowly getting some growth and is pretty satisfying to see.  |
| So cringe that it was almost unwatchable, Kazuya was crying to get a girlfriend and now that he has one he's avoiding her to stalk on Mizuhara... |
 |
| A provincial GF huh. Ruka seems to be pretty high maintenance. Though at least she can take the hint when needed. Chizuru's longing gaze though showed well how much she's missing her client. Kazuya's struggle as he panicked after seeing Chizuru's date sure was amusing as was his little stalk out. Still seeing the girl that you have feelings for be so happy while with another must hurt greatly. Chizuru's revelation sure proved to be fun and pretty unexpected. Despite the intrusion and ruining the script its nice to see Kazuya still get a present from Chizuru. Kazuya's reaction and Chizuru's own reaction sure did well to create quite the sweet moment. Overall a pretty fun ep that served to deepen the bonds between Kazuya and Chizuru while also expanding upon the latter in a surprising way. |

Dukino said: Paranoia can be an awful thing huh. Kazuya went to worst case scenario right from the jump and just kept going further down the rabbit hole. There was something fishy going on but not what he thought. This episode had me on edge the whole time. I sorta thought with him that Chizuru had a real boyfriend. I mean as Kazuya said she's gorgeous so her not having a boyfriend seems impossible. But I guess it was just all an elaborate acting exercise. Following a script while shopping to practice out in the real world around people. Seeing a high class movie would make sense with that too. It went on for a long time though I must say, basically all afternoon and night. Kazuya kept thinking he had to follow for the "client association" , oh my god that was hilarious. I did laugh a bunch thus episode but the feels were heavy too. When Kazuya found out the truth he genuinely felt bad, I mean he also felt bad the entire time too but it really set in once the truth came out. The guilt was immense and I felt sad for him myself. He felt like he really messed up his friendship with Chizuru. Luckily she's very understanding and was actually shopping for him a phone case. That moment warmed my heart with her giving him that "not" gift. Seems like both of them have some jealousy laying underneath. Exactly what i thought. That jealousy part literally shows why he did all the stalking and stuff. I still found it uncomfortable tho 😂 |
 |
| He's so cringe. And Mizuhara is such a fool, she could do so much better than him. He's such an incredible loser of astronomical proportions. Sorry for the rant, but I have to use more suspension of disbelief in a show like this than in an isekai show. Why would she be interested in this dork with no redeeming qualities. |

| First 7 minutes of episodes and no cringe moments have happened (Despite Kazuya being horny again). But then, the real episode started... Oh boy, I think this cringe was the biggest one yet. But for real, Kazuya should at least ask Ruka to go to bed. Since she's so obssed with the guy, there's a good chance she'll accept it (although we have that entire heart subplot thing for her, which I still don't fully understand it). But maybe he won't be that much horny after doing a few times. Just please make him control his horniness |
 |
| Ok wtf was this cringefest holy shit I had to pause, put my headset down, and walk out my room to take a break like 3 times. Why is Kazuya the most cringe and idiotic individual to ever exist in anime also why the fuck did Mizuhara not flame the living shit out of him after all of that I just fucking can't with this show anymore. MAN REALLY STALKED HER LIKE THAT LIKE WTF??? |

| Kazuya is legitimately a scumbag. No idea why people get upset at Mami for dumping this loser. Dude straight up stalked Chizuru for the whole day and it’s ok because cute waifu moment go brr. The only redeemable trait of this series is the waifus. |
 |
| Here we go our little stalker...would girls always react that calm as Mizuhara? Highly doubt that part... But still the present was really cute and it gave hopes for Kazuya-san. |
 |
| Kazuya is so insecure when it comes to Chizuru that he thought she was going on a date with a real boyfriend. Chizuru finally revealed why she's being a rental girlfriend. She has a desire to become an actress one day. Despite dating Ruka Kazuya took a major L in this episode. Jealousy and Envy were his biggest enemies in this episode. What a loser. |
 |
| It was a fine episode but it was so damn embarrassing to watch, honestly xD |
 |
| Oddly enough, I don't hate Kazuya. Don't get me wrong, he makes plenty of poor decisions, but Chizuru hasn't cut all contact from him, when she's had many opportunities to do so. Honestly, they're both flawed people one way or another, perhaps that makes them a good match. As for the episode, it was a nice change of pace to have an episode dedicated to Kazuya's perspectives and whatnot. Maybe this series is cringe, but I reckon that's the point. |

Since Kazuya isn't polyamorous or something (that would solve all the harem trouble, isn't it?...) I can only imagine he has a repressed cuck fetish! He loves to imagine his favorite girls being banged by other guys... |

He got a gift for stalking the girl... |
| It’s getting really hard to watch this show, this MC might be the biggest degenerate of a character i’ve seen in any show. |
 |
| Ah I'm surprised mizuhara took the stalking as a compliment, but yeah no use overthinking. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| The last time I cringed this hard watching Anime, was probably in Ousama Game the animation... This was not a pleasant watch! The Irony of Kazuya calling another guy a scumbag for something he missunderstood, while he was the biggest scumbag the whole episode! Chizuru is not showing any good signs though.... With that rant out of the way, I do appreciate Kazuya's thought of Chizuru showering!! |
 |
| so much cringe in this episode my god lmaoooo |
  placeholder text |
| Kazuya being the typical loser again. And happy belated birthday to Amamiya Sora, would definitely simp for her. |

| Not many people will realise this; but this anime is pretty much a documentary. |

| This part was cringe in the manga too but the anime heightened it to a whole new level lol. Kazuya achieved Ultra Simpstinct. |
| I can't put in to words how much I hate this garbage ass joke of an mc. I barely got through the episode, it was so cringe. He always does some stupid shit and then HES the one that wants sympathy in the end, bruh no, ur the one that stalked someone for 4 hours fuckin hell. This is the most trash seasonal Iv'e seen since Devils Line back in 2018. |
MomoSinX said: Ahhhh,so thats it.This part was cringe in the manga too but the anime heightened it to a whole new level lol. Kazuya achieved Ultra Simpstinct. Yeah,i've been enjoying this up until now,but I felt over the last couple eps it was getting boring,or less enjoyable anyway and I couldn't work out why since I like the manga.I think you got it spot on there.Shame really. |
 |
| This is cringe, so f*cking cringe, incredibly hard to watch. I hate myself for being a masochist that don't like to leave anything half-done. I just hope the last girl is good because she looks like waifu material, but if she isn't I'm not going to bother myself reading the manga, even I have a limit. |
| Overall I liked the episode. Besides the whole parts where Kazuya keeps having those negative thoughts/outcomes, which made the episode very cringy; I thought the episode was very wholesome. We learned a little bit more about Chizuru's life outside of being a student and a rental girlfriend. We also know that Chizuru cares about Kazuya since she was thinking of him and seemed conflicted when seeing him with Ruka. The same can be said about Kazuya, yeah he's still annoying as fuck, but it seems like he has grown a little. |
