| Bruh. Himari is the one who best friend-zoned Yu. And now she's the one who's upset that he treats her like a best friend instead of a lover? Maybe she has a fetish for taboo relationships where she expects Yu to take advantage of her and go from best friends to a secret lover or something like that. But Yu isn't that kind of guy, and Himari should know this. Also, I think Yu was set up as the awkward guy, but as of this episode, it's Himari who's really awkward lol. Don't remember the last time I've seen people switch gears on a girl so fast before. I thought Himari would be the fan favorite while Rin would get the hate. Depending on what Himari does next, the situation might get reversed. She's the victim of the system that SHE created. I really hope she'll pull herself together fast. She's still an entertaining character. But her games will get old fast. And she'll have to stop playing games if she wants a real chance with him. Wonder if things will go back to normal in the next episode. And yeah, this episode looked rough. Episode 1 and 2 looked pretty good. So WTF happened here? I hope this is just a one-off and the rest of the episodes will look good. But that rarely happens. |

| I appreciate Makishima's role in this drama at the end. Though, the model change suggestion could've been too much at the moment, as Himari was already on edge. Himari spilling the water on Yuu's head also seemed too much but I like that she's at least honest about her frustrations. I don't know why she was insistent on staying as friends all this time, but guess she'll have to make a move now. Saw so many people hating on her, but this actually just made me like her even more. Of course Yuu can't really be blamed for what happened here, but her crash out made sense to me. Personally, I like this progression but I'm worried that this might be progressing too fast since it's still the third episode. I'm actually glad that they don't stall the progression, but I'm worried about how the latter part of the season is going to be. Hope I'm wrong with my concern here. Also, I noticed some questionable animations here and there this episode. Seemed to happen when the frame was zoomed out and is focused on the surroundings. Is this something that just started happening? Because I didn't notice it in the previous episodes. |
 |
| Himari is retarded. I actually liked her before this but now Enomoto deserves to win |
 |
| It's so over XD Honestly I feel sorry for Rin getting caught up in this messy breakup. |
| Valid crashout tbh |
| He's so dumb it hurts. Himari is the worst though, why does she love torturing herself? They both need to stop rejecting the feelings they have for each other. She's really being annoying. The lover boy's eyes would be for you if you didn't friendzone him or set him up with Enocchi That last scene was so cringe. Makishima is also dick for pushing Himari to the edge. Also what was Yu thinking when he said about making Enocchi the new model was crazy |
As a wise man once said, "No one hates anime more than anime fans"  |
| just watched the episode and I'm already seeing commenters having shallow understanding of what happened, immediately hating on Himari. her crashout is very valid from all her POV and I'm only an anime-watcher people need to learn to pay attention, geez |
 |
| Alright, where do I start? It was a funny and enjoyable episode so far. Himari’s shy moment was super doper cute—but other than that, she was kind of annoying. I can totally understand why her behavior felt so over-the-top.. Still, I really liked the way she snapped when she hit her limit, it was abit realistic to me and funny. And as always, Enomoto is adorable—her tiny chest crack is just too cute, hehe. |
I'm absolutely loving this anime and the best blue haired gremlin Himari |
 |
| Himari is the type of person I haaaaaaaaaateeeeeeee!!! Stop sending mixed signals jesus mother of all that is freaking holy! Get your shit together! I would have told her to stop hanging out with me until she sorted her shit out lmao Enomoto is perfect for him. She is straightforward about her feelings, she has a funny personality and she appreciates his passion. Done and dusted. Himari dederves the friend zone!! |
HeroforFun23 said: Pay attention watchers. Mikishima wants Enomoto as Yuu's "main model". Episode one there's a promise that Himari will always be the main one to promote his accessories which Yuu broke. Oooooh that's a great point actually, I forgot about that! 😮 |
| Damn it. I really want to root for Himari, but damn she needs to get it together!!! She yearns for Natsu to look at her in an endearing way, but with the endless teasing she keeps on doing of course he’s not going to take you seriously. So she has constantly hindered herself countless times and she reaping what she sowed. That ending though! Bruh… |
 |
| Binged three episodes today. Not really into genki girls like Himari, but I’m rooting for her. That said, with all this wishy-washy back and forth, she’s gonna end up like a modern Onodera. Great last scene though. It looked kinda funky (def a drop in quality), but you could tell Himari was hurting—valid crashout, tbh |
| Team Rion or harem. Himari cannot be the sole winner. |
 |
| A lot of peeps mentioning the animation quality drop off, but I didn't really think the previous episodes had great animation. I would have to go back and look. Anyway, I actually enjoyed this one more than the others. I thought they were going to really drag out this Himari secretly loves Yuu ordeal. I'm happy they didn't. The end scene was pretty funny. Yuu is not very bright when it comes to picking up on other's feelings (like most male leads in shows like this,) but that kind of made it funnier when he got the drink dumped on his head, lol. I just imagined his confusion in that moment and it cracked me up. Poor guy got dumped and wasn't even dating anyone. That also cracked me up a bit. Overall, still not up there with the best shows of the season, but it has been decent enough. Hopefully, the focus stays with two girls and doesn't start adding more at some point. Also, that scene when they were in the classroom together, I couldn't tell if Himari actually was mad Yuu didn't kiss her when she mumbled, "What are you waiting for? I gave you the green light." I mean, if she would have just waited a couple more seconds he was definitely going to. I'm guessing she mumbled loud enough on purpose to tease him, but her behavior was so erratic this episode, it was hard to tell, lol. |

| Himari reminds me of a friend I had, and the experience is awfully similar that I am watching it in terrifrance |
 |
| This is not even a love triangle competition. Himari is throwing so much... She is a top-tier griefer at this point. I can't even imagine the redemption arc after that meltdown. Also, MVP for Shinji! We are only on EP3, but thanks to him, it feels like S2+ for a normal triangle rom-com. |
 |
| You know, I've never been a fan of Himari but yikes that ending. She was awful in this episode. Both Yu and her get on my nerves but at least I can give Yu the benefit of the doubt because I can imagine how he's had to live all this shit with Himari all this time. Also, that last part was supposed to be funny? It was weird. Rion best girl. |
| Less than three full episodes before the friendship is in sambles and the love is unbearable. Man, romcoms this days don't seem to like building the characters relationship on-screen. This anime is clearly one of the few exceptions where I go against the blue haired childhood friend. Ironically so, it seems like they will try to make her win in the end despite not deserving it considering her behaviour. |
| Waifus only represent ideals |
| Himari is starting to remind me of Sekai Saionji from School Days. |
| Himari needs to stop cockblocking herself if she wants to advance. Setting a mood only to turn it into a prank knowing it will completely derail said mood isn't the best play. She's been playing herself this whole time wanting more than the best friend role but not actually taking advantage of her position. |

I did not expect them to go this far already. Himari and Yu are already splitting up?!?! This episode honestly made me like Himari a whole lot less as she was clearly acting selfishly and becoming more desperate throughout. Instead of accepting the fact that she lost, she was trying to get in the way of Rion and Yu. I also respected Yu's ability to read the situation and turn down Himari in a kind but clear manner. That is something that a lot of anime protagonists are really terrible at recognising and doing. No clue what the outcome of this is going to be but I can somehow easily imagine that things are going to annoyingly go back to how they were before, as we still have 9 episode left after all.
| @InfinityDude88 This is actually some interesting psychology imo. She’s in full denial but faced with real rejection from her standpoint, she finally reacts instead of trying to play it off like usual. Having been with Yuu for so long, she lived thinking this was her place no matter what. She relied on that reality. Even though she sees herself losing from a logical standpoint and has been been fighting to accept it within herself, emotions are not that logical. These two things can easily form a contradiction in behavior when logic and emotion are out of sync. Whether this makes her a bad person, this is still how she felt. Sometimes if the feelings are strong enough, you are unable to stop it no matter how hard you deny it, no matter how bad of a person it makes you. Where she failed in this episode was actually inviting him to kiss her on the table but then recording it as if it were like usual and then expecting he should have still kissed her. I would hope she realized at some point herself that she chickened out. Totally self inflicted. It’s really her own fault. But with the way romcoms normally prolong things, I wouldn’t be surprised if they return to friendship status in the next episode… |
| Uggh that blue haired is so annoying |
| This time, Himari behaved very differently compared to usual. Now her jealousy took form—her behavior showed that there was jealousy there. It's just a shame that our MC, Yuu, wasn't able to catch this. So far, only Shinji has been able to detect Himari's jealousy. Well, because he knew, he actually heated up Himari even more. It seemed that because Shinji was heating her up, Himari couldn't stand it anymore. In fact, at the end she said something very surprising—she said that she wanted their friendship to end there. |
 |
| Himari just proving that they can't stay as friends forever. Enomoto was great serving as a catalyzer... though we know this romantic subtext can last for centuries. |

| With the realization of Enomoto being Yu's first crush, and furthermore with Himari's teasing of the possible relationship between the two then and now, things are unfortunately not this way. At the very least, having Enomoto around means she can help Yu guard against Himari, though her provocations only make matters worse for Yu, like teasing him to do the deed while they're alone. Yu may have almost lost his moral sense, but so too is Himari wanting him to dig further into her play. Of course, nothing goes out the ears of best buddy Makishima who takes Yu's comments coolly, though Himari sure took cues for Enomoto giving Yu a rather perfect shot of the flower accessories. But to replace the choker that resembled their friendship for the past few years for the new tulip hair pin accessory, Yu wouldn't think twice about considering for Himari, though with Makshima and Himari around to celebrate the occasion, him being forced to put the hair pin on Enomoto sure brings about some entertainment. But there comes a point where Himari just could not take it any further, and Makishima's goading only makes the situation a whole lot worse...for a potential break up. Welp, it has to come to this point no matter what. The question is how long will this last? |
