| Okay, Ruka is cute and all but damn Kazuya and Mizuhara are really in a mess here. Show's getting better imo. |
 |
| Looks like this is the start of the Triangle Love |
 |
| Here comes the 2nd worst girld from the anime. First she broke the client's confidentiality when she reveal the Kuri rented her and then she blackmailed Kazuya to date her. Very annoying and pushy |
 |
| Mizuhara rejected, Mami obliterated, Sumi not included, long have I waited, best girl Ruka now integrated. |
| Ruka has become nothing more than a pain is the ass for Kazuya and Chizuru. It turns out that she was another rental girlfriend for Kuri and she told Kazuya about it while Kuri was there. Ruka wants to date Kazuya for herself for different reasons other than her heartbeat. |
 |
| didn't expect Ruka would make the story and relationship more complicated. especially for Mizu and Kazu its a total mess for them. and I liked it. So that ED shows Ruka's past which shows that Ruka has some heartbeat issues(?) and by the time she met Kazu her heartbeat went high 'cause excitement for the first time in a while and that's the reason she needs to date Kazu. |
  |
| ruka is 16 ??? i was gonna vomit when i saw her holding hands with these grown ass men in the ED. and now she's gonna be dating a guy in college??? im disgusted. a 5 year age gap where a minor is dating an adult is disgusting. a 16 year old getting a job as a rental girlfriend is disgusting. jesus christ ruka is literally a child wtf???? |
  placeholder text |
| OK, now I'm on board with Ruka. Truth be told, I wasn't really on it for blackmailing at first. However, it looks like from the backstory that Ruka has her reasons for behaving the way she's behaving. Personally, I think Kazuya should put Chizuru on the side for Ruka. I know Kazuya likes Chizuru, but Chizuru has made it very clear that she does not like Kazuya. Kazuya should be going out with someone who does like him to take his mind off girls who are not interested in him. |
 Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |
| Ruka is less annoying than Mami, that's good. Still, you go Chizuruuu! You're the best!! Wonder what the 4th girl is like... |
 |
| I dont get it. Get with Ruka and live happily ever after like what other option is there? |
| This series just got so much better without Mami I can't even describe it. |
 |
| So I'm going to ask this. Who's tiddies are bigger Ruka or Chizuru? Cause Ruka to me looks bigger to me. |
 |
| Ruka might just be the Bestest Best Girl of all times That attitude bro, that damn attitude |
| while it may be just a tactic to put more in the anime (I mean, we ARE getting Umi next episode after all lol) but I really liked the new ending they made for Ruka it just makes me remember how much I love Ruka, and how she needs someone that really loves her anyway, at this pace we're gonna get Sumi for epi 9 or 10, and more Mami soon too, so yeah, hype I was going to give it 3/5, but 4/5 just because of the ending alone |
 |
| At first sight, I thought Ruka would be the typical Tomboy character, but it is quite the opposite! Soooo sweet, I kinda like her. Nice episode, the plot is getting intense and here am I waiting for Sumi to appear ;_; |
 |
| I wasn’t expecting Ruka to be best girl... but damn.... ;_; |
| Ruka best girl🤡 I don't want to know anything! Bro she's just so cute. I like that bold attitude of hers, she just has a different vibe to her. I hope they get together |
| I really enjoyed that episode, Kazuya might be bad at love but he aint bad at being a good person I guess. I honestly like this better than the Mami storyline, that was just kinda annoying but, this I kinda enjoy and Ruka ain't that annoying. And I like how they intergated her backstory to the ed, the song was nice too. |
 |
| Ruka is best girl but we all know MC will simp his way with Chizuru |
 |
| Ruka went from being cold and glaring at Kazuya to being super clingy to him. Well, isn't that an interesting change in attitude? xD Also, not sure how to feel about Ruka's backstory crammed into the ending... The plot is just getting crazier each episode :P |
THANKS SENPIEX  |
| So Roku has some kind of heart disease that's why she's working on a job like this. So what if some 40 year old guy makes her heartbeat higher then 90bpm? Would she go out with him to? I mean what? Huh! Hmm! Why? How? Who? |
| Yes great positive episode. Hopefully with Ruka as a rival, Chizuru will notice her hidden feelings for Kazuya. I like the character development in this episode. Also, the ending with Ruka's back-story deserve some credits, I truly hope they'll enlighten us with more info in future episodes. |

It's disgusting and we can't change the fact.amagirinomikoto said: ruka is 16 ??? i was gonna vomit when i saw her holding hands with these grown ass men in the ED. and now she's gonna be dating a guy in college??? im disgusted. a 5 year age gap where a minor is dating an adult is disgusting. a 16 year old getting a job as a rental girlfriend is disgusting. jesus christ ruka is literally a child wtf???? I believe ages work differently in Japan. Kazuya is legally allowed to date Ruka, but not be sexual with her. Though I could be wrong. Again, ages work differently in different countries, not that I agree with it. Here in the UK, 16 is the age of consent. So at 27, I could technically find some 16yr old. There's a number of reasons, but for one, I wouldn't because of the age gap. Personally I think the age of consent should be when someone is considered an adult, which is usually 18. But then again, it's anime, Kazuya isn't that much older...plus we all know who Kazuya is going to end up with. |
| Surprisingly, I actually enjoyed an episode of this anime for the first time. Ruka might look annoying for some people, but its impossible for me to hate a character with a complicated past, BUT, I have to recognize that the backstory as a whole wasn't very good. I understood that the point of her past is to justify her ambitions of finding someone able to make her heart beat faster, up to here it's ok . The problem comes when this plot is used to justify forced development like Ruka falling in deep love with Kazuya because he touched her breasts and realize how much he cares about Chizuru. With this information, Ruka is not supposed to be looking for Kazuya's love but only using him, but apparently she loves him so much that she cried a river, even if she met Kazuya 1 day ago. Another thing that bothers me, what the actual **** with the dumb "Uh look, this girl's heart beats less than the average, she's like a robot. Let's stay away from her because we need to give her a sad backstory somehow"? Forced and unrealistic af, barely no one knows what's the normal heartbeat rate for a human depending of the age, why would they care about it so much? wtf with the "she's like a robot"? It's not like if she's was an otaku or a anything considered "disgusting", even if humans usually avoid and hate what they can't understand, the heartbeats of a person is just to dumb to be used as justification and I don't think someone has ever been socially ignored just because his heartbeats are not normal. . The rest of the episode was enjoyable, at least for me, but it's not enough to fix the rest of the show. I guess the mc got a good harem: - A fake girl that uses him for money and he knows it. - An ex girlfriend that wants to drive him to depression. - A girl that uses him to improve her heartbeats. And the best of all, these girls somehow fell in love with the most pathetic anime character ever because....... it's a harem romantic comedy! |

 Oh, so Ruka and I share the same birthday, cool. |
 |
| That was some next level forcefulness out of the gate. Kind of rare to see someone that surely isn't going to be the "end girl" get her time trying to date the MC earlier on. So at least that's a bit original in comparison to the cliché levels that most of this show has to offer The ED at least explained the logic of why she acted the way she did, though it still doesn't really explain why she'd get so doki doki from the miniscule amount of interaction they had |
  |
| Ah yes, another waifu to look at. Makes sense from what I gathered why Ruka would be attracted to Kazuya. Ruka vs Chizuhara hmmmm.... |
 |
| Ending sequence was nice Every girl in this anime so far is best girl Who would ever turn Ruka chan down?? Get ur shit together Kuzuya (pun intended) |
| I guess Ruka has some sort of Heart condition judging by that ending. Kazuya is the only one who can make her heart race. Interesting. Wonder what Chizuru will do now. Looking forward to next week. |
| Listen to my podcast https://anchor.fm/waifusandweeaboos Follow my twitch. https://www.twitch.tv/sorasensei1 Spring 2024 Waifus on Profile "You can have multiple Waifus" -me |
| Well this is probably the first episode where I can say that I actually enjoyed myself while watching lol. With the past couple of episodes, I think I'm starting to like the series, and I can also say for the first time that I'm really looking forward to the next episode lol. Also the Ruka ed theme was really good actually. Makes me love her character even more. |
 |
| So Kazuya is really okay with dating a girl who pretty much stalked and blackmailed him xD But nobody seems to mind? If it was the opposite way around, the comments would be going ballistic lol |

| Looks like Ruka has some heart problem that... means her heartbeat is always steady? Almost sounds like a good thing lol |
| Watch Gunsmith Cats!!!! |
| When a 24min Ep takes me almost an hour to finish.. Entertainment! ~ The over-the-top, ludicrousness romance is both different and ridiculous from the top sequel RomComs airing. Very much enjoyable. Plus, we still have one more girl to go. The VA's are really selling this and its too good to pass up. Talentz |
