Like most romance anime characters, Yuuto is good in the clutch. In general, however, he's pretty pathetic.
Tell me if I'm wrong: but would anyone else like to see this "idol" arc wrapped up in episode 11 so we can have the 12th primarily focused on Yuuto finally choosing an actual girlfriend. By "finally choosing," I mean actually say "I love you," to either Shiina (unlikely) or Haruka (likely). If he doesn't say it, I would expect a third season, or a giant disappointment.
If not, anyone could tell that after the initial blossoming of their relationship in the first season between Haruka and Yuuto, will not have developed at all. It would be very disappointing if it comes to this and they decide not to make a third season. Which is looking more-and-more likely.

I'll be frank, the blondie arc from last season sucked too, but that's not why I disliked this season far more. Last season we saw the relationship between Yuuto and Haruka reach a certain level, and it was that relationship that kept the anime decent. This season, Yuuto had "flings" with Mika, the maids, the Rie Kugumiya character, Shiina and the idol. Where's the focus? How is this Nigizaka Haruka's Secret, when she has no secret left? heck, is she even the main character anymore? I can't remember hte last time she was hte focus of an episode. Remember, even this episode was focused on Yuuto, not Haruka. It's quite a disaster, really.


True but this arc is to show that the her being an idol or coming from an entirely different background from Yuuto's won't get in the way of their relationship.
I'd like to see Haruka visiting the anime studio where MiRan works.

This whole idol scenario with Haruka and the manager asking Yuuto to leave Haruka alone if he wants her to be successful reminds me of I's.
Its not that great of a plot twist though I'm not expecting some amazing storyline from this series but some a more original than this

Oh no, please, how can someone be that bad a judge of character, their blatant lies conflict with everything that has happened in the whole episode, and even a child should be able so see that. But of course Yuuto will be depressed almost the whole next episode just to make one of those "Boohoo, for some reason I think she doesn't like me"-episodes.

He will probably follow the usual pattern and not be able to realize until the very last minute that Haruka wanted to see him and and had no idea about all this.

I hope he talks about this with someone quick, so that they point out the obvious to him, or else the next 20min of my life will be depressing. Telling Nogizaka-Papa would be fun (but unlikely), he would charge the studio with his katana.

AGH! That woman is such a bitch, like wtf! I hate so much, and what's with her telling Yuuto to stay away from Haruka, and how does Yuuto find none of this a least bit suspicious? If I was Yuuto I would have taken out my cell phone that moment, called and asked her " By the way did you know you're becoming a real idol?". And once told to stay away from Haruku I would have something like "No!, you stay away from her you bitch". This anime has so many plot holes fisjkbhsd fjkbvsuh I just don't know what to think of it. Dragging it 2 1/2 season maybe was a bit much?

The path to being an Idol .
As much as the consequences were brutal .. like separation .
Yuuto being a part-time manager could be useful to Milan ~ .
Chocolate banana ~ !! anything for relief ~.
Nobunaga helpful in situations like that ~ . Voice acting ~ !!

So he is probably going to stay away from Haruka because some random lady he just met told him to do so because this guy is a fucking pussy. Also, why would he believe anything they say when he caught them lying in the office? Whoever created this anime/manga sucks at writing lol.

Idol girl is better than Haruka. Most of the girls are better than Haruka.

Let's see how the idol thing predictably falls through.

How could Yuuto possibly try to explain this away with some excuse?

That sneaky manager is the greatest threat to their relationship than any of the love rivals.

Both of them are so easily manipulated and tricked. lol

Trash cliché! Let's see they went on their way to make Haruka participate in that crappy idol contest, put her name into it without having her consent and Yuuto just went along with em' without consulting anything with Haruka for those matters or vice versa? Worst of it all, this godforsaken plot device where deliberate attempts are being made to dumb down characterization to bring out some dramatic effect on the progress of characters' interpersonal relationship (which by the way, has already been quite done in season 1 in far better manners than this), this is one of the reasons why many 2000s' Rom-Com adaptations (with very good potential) suffered heavily on executing their respective chara developments and plot progressions in substantially rich and fulfilling ways.

Welp, never liked that manager and her assistant anyway. Hope, Papa Nogizaki teach em' some lessons for good.
