I really liked Tanou-kun, I hope he ends up dating Aya, they're so cute together. Aya's missundertanding was so funny too!

I was afraid it'll become boring quickly but it's still fine and relaxing. Don't know how to feel about the romance thing, especially with such lame misunderstandings and with the least interesting characters too. Miki-chan is surprisingly observant though.

I assumed this would be a full on cute-girls-doing-cute-things anime, but I guess I was wrong. A love interest is introduced, I suppose it makes things a little more interesting, but I doubt it will really move out of the slice-of-life genre much. Still feels like a pretty generic show. Easy to watch so I'll keep watching for now.

Poor Tanoue, came for the Aya, stayed for the game, and now she thinks he's into Oono. Oh no.
I'd never heard of cockroach poker before, nice to see a new game that was quite entertaining to watch. I look forward to what they'll play next.

All these are actual board games. I'm a seasoned board gamer and I absolutely love how this anime gives some light to modern board games! :D I'm looking forward to what's next <3

Poor Tanoue, he did his best but nothing went as planned, I would love to see him again and also just more side chars in general, I'm liking those interactions that come from the games.

Miki is so aware of how everyone feels, she's so adorable.

The game was pretty fun, the mindgames were real. "Should i pass or contest? if i pass, i might lose myself since i'm 1 off bat and she might give me a bat, but if i contest, Aya might get 4th fly. What to do"
And in the end he failed her no matter how much he tried haha.
And it seemed like Miku was having time of her life.

The romance part was really adorable, how he couldn't approach the girl he likes.

Enjoyed this episode thoroughly, thanks :)

Afterschool Dice Club delivers yet another fine episode! I was worried that the show's game aspect would be too complicated, but I'm glad to learn that the show has delivered easy games for the audience to follow. This episode, we get a new player in the form of Shouta, who has feelings for Aya but has trouble confessing to her. I've been enjoying this show so far for the character moments and the bright and cheerful atmosphere and I really hope this show keeps them up. The show can have all the amazing games it wants, but that won't matter if it doesn't have good characters viewers can sympathize with and get behind.

Never thought a guy would appear. But i do agree with him about Aya being cute. He's hard to watch. I don't think he'll be permanently added to group more like he's a side character that shows up from time to time because that'll ruin the 'cute girls, do cute things' trope.

Meh I prefer CGDCT shows to primary stay CG instead of shoving romance into it. Especially rom-com. Can't really stand those.

I'm waiting for the appearance of Emilia and a few more episodes before any rash opinions but it's not bad so far. The games are neat and the characters are fine.

9:20 Uno isn't a card game, it's a life or death game, a game that destroys friendships

You can do it Tanoue! good thing he got some support from Aya even though it's a misunderstanding...

Well.. In school Aya does give another feel.. More of a proper girl.. At least that's what I'd think in Shouta's place, how I see Aya, whenever he looks at her.. ;P As kind pretty girl, or something.. But she's much more active and doing whatever in her free time.. ;D Gentle girl turns more into genki girl..
Bluff games can be nice at times.. Poker is also majorly bluff game..
Poor man Shouta can't catch a break.. Now Aya thinks he likes another girl.. Man.. But I also somehow not expect that man necessary will get to be with Aya or anything.. So it's a pain.. Just bruh.. ;p Well, I hope anime won't be too harsh on him, but still poor guy..

The cockroach poker looked really fun, also i remembered the stuff with Tanoue and him messing up his chances with Aya during the card game lol, very funny stuff, I’m rooting for the lad tho no matter how funny it is, Aya is definitely a good pick too, i remember liking her a lot when I first watched this.

This is such a relaxing and uplifting show to watch, so I'm loving it thus far!

As someone earlier in the thread mentioned, the variety of games gives me Yu-Gi-Oh! manga vibes...well, except for the lack of people getting stung by scorpions or set on fire, of course.

Interesting game being played especially when I found out it was real game you can buy. Reminds me when I played BS with poker cards on a school trip in the past.
