| Aside from the accidental kiss, I'm having trouble understanding why there was so much drama. Sure, Sachi has feelings for Nagi, but given that Erika was also in the house it should be obvious that Nagi would think she was Erika since he didn't know Sachi was home. I guess it's just teens being teens. |
 |
| tbh im really sad that the romantic development was with sachi. pls even if theyre not related, they're still siblings in emotions and yk growing up tbh. i'd go from a 9 to a 2 if his love interest becomes sachi |
 |
| Well, Sachi giving Nagi the silent treatment was kind of a blessing in disguise because it meant that she wasn’t physically abusing him. Seriously, why are they giving her so much screen time. Erika is the only somewhat likeable character in this series so far, as Nagi as been a jerk as well. I’m quite disappointed with him. |

How is a middle schooler going to tell her parents she's leaving and not coming back AND the parents just say ook. It's not a cultural thing. I've seen enough J-dramas to know that much. She needs her ass kicked. Telling Sachi he'll treat her as a woman was a bad move. It gave her hope. Someone needs to spell it out for Nagi. He thinks she wants to get to know Erika and misses her brother, when she just wants to ruin any relationship he might have. Ugh! This episode infuriated me. It was cute right up until the water puddles on the floor. |

| I still don't understand why Sachi is still living with her brother and Erika and why she won't move back in with her parents. She's being a total c*ckblocer and preventing Erika and Nagi from getting closer to each other and forming a relationship. The censorship in the stairs scene was funny. Also, this episode got way too weird way too fast. One last thing, why isn't Erika paying for groceries too considering how loaded she is. |

| What an awkward episode. I wish I knew how incest actually works in real life. |
 |
| Typical main character with bad balance trips and falls on top of girl character, girl proceeds to punch main character and the whole incident is disregarded not even five minutes later. This is usually how it is in your usual harem anime or any anime for that matter. But here it actually leads to some somewhat serious repercussions. After Nagi accidentally falls on her (and kisses her? harem mc's may have trash balance but apparently have aimbot installed on their lips), Sachi becomes SCARRED FOR- well maybe not for life, but at least for the duration of this episode until Nagi-kun mans up and owns up to his mistakes and goes to apologize to her. Not that this show doesn't already have its fair share of weird stuff going on, but I think they just gave the "don't treat me like a kid"-type of attitude to Sachi just so that Nagi can say the SUPER-sus line of "I will view you as a woman now." Like in context it's okay and it makes sense, but other than that, that is not exactly something you say to your sister, blood-related or otherwise Still a surprisingly heartwarming as usual, and I've come to really like Erika-chan. Not just because we got SEXY Erika in this episode, but their short time at the candlelit table was kind of touching, as Erika opened up to how she was really was having fun recently with everyone. And then later on in the episode when we get to the incident with Sachi, she recognizes the tension between the two and urges Nagi to make up with her and get it over with to get things back to normal. Whatever "normal". Perhaps living with the fiance you don't want to even get married to along with living with your sister who is not actually related is pretty tame by anime standards I guess. But it is just little things like Erika being caring that make a character. Almost halfway through the season, and I for one can say that this show is easily more wholesome than it is a dumpster fire. |

| The power outage definitely had some great moments, Erika had a wild imagination with that “Mars Attacks” reference, and we got a classic falling into a kiss situation with Sachi and Nagi. I can’t blame Sachi for being bothered by it and the way Nagi handled it, her reaction in class was funny tho lol. Segawa gives Nagi some great advice, as well as sexy teacher Erika lol, so he ends up apologizing properly to Sachi and now she’s in a good mood again, I guess that’s her proper introduction as a member of the harem lol, and how Nagi kissed her before any of the others. Also wow, people really hate Sachi in this discussion lol, I definitely disagree with that, and the inclusion of a slight incest romance doesn’t bother me at all either, but for those that don’t like it at least you have Erika and Segawa to save it for you. |

| i simp hard for sachi and nagi !! |
| That moment with sachi and nagi was glorious. I felt it would happen (obviously two beautiful non-related sisters in each arm? jealous) not a bad show, just a wee bit predictable |
| dang why is the "not related by blood technically" incest being pushed so much? No reason at all. This could have been handled better just by not adding any "romance" to it. |
 My biggest regret: Reading all 200+ chapters of Kanojo, Okarishimasu |
| Sachi should realise it soon that even if he isn't related, he's actually a brother who cares for her. Imo if everyone in this series undergoes some development in their character it'll become a good series and not just "a harem Anime" |
 |
| god I should have expected this fucking incest |
 |
RadioYactive said: I completely forgot to write about this too. Why was she just standing there almost expecting the kiss to happen?? But she proceeds to get upset with Nagi even though he had no idea she was there lolOk, one thing really annoyed me in this episode, Sachi comes home without announcing herself and uses the excuse that everything was dark, IT'S JUST BECAUSE IT'S ALL DARK THAT YOU SHOULD ANNOUNCE YOUR PRESENCE YOU RETARDED, and even with Nagi muttering next to she still she didn't say anything. Honestly these rom-com authors invent every single thing... |

Segawa is likable too. Yea, I guess so. She just has such little screen time |
| And here I was hoping we might get a good episode of just Nagi and Erika chilling during the blackout, but then Sachi arrives to ruin yet another episode. The way we got to that point is so ridiculously, hilariously contrived too: she was behind Nagi when he slipped, but he's somehow able to pirouette on the spot, pin her against the wall and accidentally kiss her? FUCK OFF with that contrived garbage. Not to mention the fact that she just stood there in the dark rather than announcing her presence like a normal human being: isn't it normal in Japan to announce yourself when you return home and when you leave the house? But yeah, this show went completely to shit when it started giving Sachi way too much focus to push the cliche "technically not siblings" incest plot, and I've reached the end of my tolerance for that now and will be dropping the show. A shame after such a promising start, but should I really expect anything else from the harem genre at this point? |
| Nagi kissed his sister before any of the other girls lmao, though it was pretty contrived. |
| When that thunderstorm first struck lightning I was expecting something great and alas a power outage occurred the fuck is Nagi doing shining that flashlight shine that shit elsewhere man I was fooled it was Erika that Nagi kissed and I didn't know if it was a kiss or not, Damn her friends are L for spoiling but did they really spoil or Sachi spoil herself by reenacting the episode When I saw the stocking I was like what in the fuck is Erika cosplaying now and holy that's different, glad that those two made up and I did not expect for Sachi's side to progress in the story and it's looking like it. |
  |
| oml what an incest episode, I mean intense(?) lol idk. that was an awkward scene and very unnecessary, I'm starting to find Sachi annoying :// still glad Segawa made an appearance for this ep, only thing that made it good |
 |
| Awkward episode like everyone else said. Little progress Nagi and Sachi relationship? Sachi really pushing the Incest lol I was waiting for the continuation of last week plot twist, but we got nothing in this week episode. |
 |
| Lol as if Nagi-kun is going to think of Sachi in a horni way |
 |
| Yeah I was waiting for that, drama because his kissed his little sister on the mouth lmao |
 |
| deymn i just wanna beng Sachi! lolz (of course without that sucker attitude) 3/5. |
 |
| And it finally happened, Sachi x Nagi sailing. |
 |
| Things got tense. There was a power outage and Nagi was standing next to Erika. Nagi was going to check something about the light, just Sachi appeared and something happened, Nagi kissed her...AND THE LIGHT CAME BACK. Sachi didn't know what to do next and things got complicated. Nagi didn't know what happened and Erika(Well. Erika, the sexy teacher xd) made him realize it. And Hiro advised him what to do. From there he went to talk to Sachi and the problem was solved. It was good.        |
| Another iconic moment from the manga... the accidental kiss during the storm. I have no clue how is this point going to be used ahead (as a reader...) The author must be saving it for something good! |
| Sachi doesn't want to be treated a child anymore. Also kind of curious why she just happened to be there when the light was out. |
 |
| @Tamer2002 he realized only part of it, par of the issue, what he failed to realize is the full picture that she has feeling for him, if he gotten the full picture things would have just gotten more awkward davidyodo24 said: Awkward episode like everyone else said. Little progress Nagi and Sachi relationship? Sachi really pushing the Incest lol I was waiting for the continuation of last week plot twist, but we got nothing in this week episode. the term of incest means if 2 related by blood get together, this term is inappropriate to use with step siblings, with the term incest only thing what matter is Blood, no blood relations no incest, u may feel its the same but feelings and facts are different things :) |

| This ep more into (giri no) imouto route, meanwhile we still don't have a good ep with Segawa so far . . As usually, boys r always wrong lol no matter how accidentaly things can happend.. |
 |
| Poor Sachi, all hung up on her big brother. She'd be so much happier if she wasn't. |
| Well things have got very uncomfortable with this new love triangle! I just can’t get on board with Sachi having feelings for someone who IS her brother (doesn’t matter if they aren’t biologically related)… it’s a bit too fucking weird |
 |
| Look at how Sachi being selfish toward her onii to even giving the awkward situation over the whole house and forced him to stay humiliate by making an apology. I dislike this episode, by how poorly the direction author need to lead up Sachi character onto like that. I mean, a slipping Nagi is fine with Hiro, over the amusement park part, cause she's a babe. Its not even the real one. But not with precious Sachi and her mixed feeling getting more mixed, why you do that author smh... So that's it, Nagi decide to give Sachi a false hope to the competition which also giving me a bad impression for this episode with no cap. But with an exceptional for Hiro once more showed how much Nao Taoyama nailed the voice on that one moment of her. Maiden shrine girl ftw... |
