| lmao poor Kintaro, protected her but got kissed by a guy, and wow so he knows martial arts too, full of surprises :3 |
| I kinda expected him to be a fighter. He reminds me of Onizuka a lot. |
  |
| That was really awkward... |

| I knew Kintaro could kick ass. Of course a man traveling to gain knowledge would of also learned martial arts. |
 |
| Wow I actually liked this episode, unlike the first 2 this one was interesting and the first half was actually rather funny. This episode didn't have useless nudity nor forced perverted comedy, Kintaro was actually pretty cool this episode. I like Golden Boy concept, but as I've said before the first 2 episodes were just too full of sillyness and fanservice for my taste, I couldn't take them seriously nor have I found them funny. |
 |
| Great episode. The man to man kiss scene was just hilarious.. ROFL I felt bad for Nori the time she cried after laughing. :( Also, Kintaro got some martial arts. That was unexpected coz he was always got beaten up not until that time. I hope the rest of the eps goes like this. So educational.. XD |
| I can't believe i haven't seen this Anime till now O_O It's amazing! And yeah i kinda expected he'd know how to fight... he seems to be in a perfectly healthy mental and physical state, it's not surprising that on his ways he ended up learning self-defense. |
| He practically had his life sucked out of him through that kiss! White-out, as he said. This episode is by far the best one. |
| My favorite setting kitchen/cooking/asian cuisine A bad guy will always had a bad suspicion Oe's a very good stealth journalist wahaha lol I really laughed so hard on that one, undressing and redressing her and omg I didn't expected the kiss.. that was really really a sad ending.. well if this was a love story.. it would also be sad for me |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| Kintaro my man :D |

^_^ |
| I expected a Kintaro toilet rubbing scene to be honest, but that hilarious guy on guy kiss scene more than made up for it. |
| The outcome is just like the other two, but this ending was sad with Nori being the kind of girl she is. |
| Was a decent episode, these things happen and well if you've got a nice guy like this one things can really become good at the end! |
 |
| the kissing scene was so hilarious that i ROFL~ its been a while since i laughed like that~ |
 |
| This ep really showed a different side the Kintaro character (aside from being the fast-learner and occasional perv). We got to see a glimpse that not only does he learn/master technical/intellectual tasks and jobs really quickly, but when it's revealed he has pretty decent martial arts skills he was holding back the whole time by the end, that's really saying something of his abilities. Also, is it me or does it seem that when it comes to more mature and/or sexual female characters is what Kintaro actually may prefer, due to his implied rejection of Noriko at the end when she tries to confess to him, but I think he just doesn't go for the sweet, innocent girls since he didn't have any physical re-action to her the entire episode and was more looking out for her well being as a friend/brotherly figure more so than as a lover. |
| Great episode although there is no toilet scene. :( |

| I lol'd when the guy started licking Kintaro's hand. |
| That Kogure guy with the suit needs to gtfo from this show. Anyways, poor Kintaro getting beat up ;.; I'm glad Kintaro later kicked his ass though. |
 |
| He rejected the girl.. that was surprising and really smooth.. He really cared about her. This show is like a tutorial on how to be a man, good stuff. |
| なんとかなる |
| honestly i liked this episode the most so far, I really liked the more semi serious tone and the jokes were still spot on, the scene where he was trying to keep noriko dressed was hilarious. also one thing i should note about this show, Kintaro is actually a character that feels deserving of a harem, take note harem writers, this is how its done. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| i loved this episode a lot the next 2 are better tho imo |
| No ecchi stuff with hot woman. |

| oh and here I am halfway thought ;( really love it so far <3 |
AngelicFeces said: The outcome is just like the other two, but this ending was sad with Nori being the kind of girl she is. Exactly true. This anime is extreme fun, but this ending was more serious and a bit sad. But still great. |
 |
| Hmm kinda quiet episode, not much pervertness going on this time. But it was OK. |
| Not as funny as last episode but still really funny. It had some actual plot this time too. |
 |
| Meh, shit ep. Where's my ecchi? And that yaoi scene.. |
| Oh gosh... that kiss scene... wow. |
  |
| His karate suck, what kind of fighting style lol. |
 |
| This was probably my favorite episode so far. |
| Amazing, such a funny anime. |
   |
| That corkscrew kiss LMAO |
 |
| Yo did Onizuka steal the "Onizuka Eikichi, 22 years old" from Kintarou? Dude keeps saying "Kintarou Ooe, 25 years old" Both shows are similar, Both MC's are very similar and now they even have the same catchphrase lmao wtf |
| Good episode, but I actually liked the 1st and 2nd episode more so. |
| The thing I enjoy the most is being proven wrong. When talking badly about shows, or making challenges to their premises, I like to see if they can surpass my assumptions, because if it makes for great anime, then I win regardless. With this episode, Golden Boy manages to check off a standard cliche of saving a good girl in love from a jerk. However, it's really nothing to write at length about, but I'm surprised that the anime managed to be sweet about it. There was nothing here that I haven't seen before, but it was still sweet. I can't praise it, but I can't exactly talk bad about it either. That being said, if that guy was part of the Yakuza, what's stopping him from taking revenge, especially now that Kintarou is gone? |
| For being such a pervert, Kintaro is very concerned about a young lady's purity. Him rebuttoning Noriko's clothes while the guy tried to undress her was pretty hilarious. Poor Kintaro wound up traumatized by the move that would've had Noriko "creaming her jeans", though. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| That kiss scene. I felt so bad for Kintaro lol That lunch was so satisfying. |
