This is well animated especially that confession scene. I love how Nino is straightforward to Fuutaro now. We're at the endgame.

Nino really confessed first to Uesugi. That was a great episode. Everyone was adorable as ever. There was a bit of fanservice as well. Fake Itsuki. Lol. I wonder who's that?

Well damn - who'd have thought Nino would be the first sister to confess?! I was very surprised by that but it was also nice to see something unpredictable happen. Wonder what's gonna happen with Futaro & Nino's relationship now

I'm a bit confused; why does Otou-san hate Futaro so much when 𝘩𝘦'𝘴 the one who hired Futaro in the first place?! Also, what is with this 'tutor us' - 'don't tutor' thing? It's happened so many times in this season already!

And Nino confesses to Futaro, and damn she's serious with this. Going so far as to unknowingly shun Ichika's opportunity to fess, and saying it to him upfront a couple of times. We also got to a HOT spring scene with Itsuki (nice fanservice there).

Is it just me or the father of the quints is looking more like Levi now, from the hair and his dead looks, AM I HIGH OR DOES SOME FEEL THE VIBES TOO?!!!

Another really good episode, a lot of focus on Nino and Itsuki, Nino on the full offensive and even went into the mixed bath, I gotta respect it. Nino still isn’t my favorite, but I do like her a lot more after the past arc and this episode. I can say though that Ichika has risen to my favorite, sharing the spot with Miku (can’t pick just one lol, very hard) looking forward to seeing who the fake Itsuki is, personally I think it’s Yotsuba.

The episode I was looking forward to most in this season. I wish they did the first confession at the end of last episode but oh well. Really good episode, fast, but not rushed.
And also,


While Quintessential is one of the few anime that I prefer the manga, this season has been as good as the manga. Good on Bibury.

Another reminder of why I was really liking the manga at this point in the story: the subversion of the "confession unheard" cliche was a great moment, not least because of the surprise of Nino being the first Quint to truly confess. The only downside is that the moment wasn't given a lot of time to stand out and be allowed to sink in, due to the show's desire to move onto the two family trips.

This is also one of the more interesting arcs that we're now coming into, though having the character voices maintained even when characters are in disguise does make it easier to see through the illusion than it should be. I guess that's a downside of moving from the medium of manga to anime, and one we've seen evidence of this season already with.

I felt like the bike scene was kind of short.

And it would be better if it was at the end of last episode rather than in the beginning of this.

What an episode! Nino was the MVP this time, never expected her to have this attitude towards him, but like lmao, she expects him to answer after a few days?
But that ending is a good thing, even tho we have to wait for another week.

Ichika did something for sure, especially after hearing Nino's confession.
Damn, this is getting so good, can't wait for the next eps!

A disappointing episode as a manga reader but I could see it coming since the whole season was speedrun. I'm glad most anime onlies still like it though. This is the peak of the manga for me and I'm happy to see it animated regardless.

Miku and Ichika trying to be as polite as possible regarding the confession issue and Nino being like "respect between sisters? what's that? I said I love you."

So... I guess there is an Itsuki wig somewhere because there are only two sisters with long hair now and I kinda doubt Miku was the one at the lobby. This said, guess I will go with Ichika since she has been giving me some "snake" vibes lately. Though... "Itsuki's voice" really sounded like Miku at the beginning of their encounter if I'm honest.

Fantastic episode! Fast pacing as usual but, it's not bad at all, the anime is still really great and I am really happy to see my favorite moment animated. Though at this rate I don't know anymore where the season will end lmao. I am really looking forward to the next episode.

Let me jump to Nino Train
Choo choooo!

Nino supremacy, Nino gang arise
this is what we waitin for!
Now this is the start boys!

Nino is so bold, i love it so much its so funny and cute
She likes i hate you then less than 1 sec she likes i love you in this ep lol

Non manga readers be like wait what just happened did Nino just confessed out of the blue xD

She even confessed twice and wantrd to wash Futaro's back.Like Miku said it takes a lot of courage to confess and Nino have that courage, im so amazed on that consider shes a tsundere. Tsundere's in anime have a least courage to make a move to MC and Nino just broke that.

While Dio has The World, Miku has The Universe.



I guess she has even more competition now. It was amusing to see Nino try that hard, albeit somewhat fruitlessly. I can appreciate her efforts, though.

Nino's bath encounter was on a completely other level...

Dude! I have mad respect for Nino! She confessed TWICE!
I figured that the first time Fuutaro didn't hear her, and I thought that after realizing that she was gonna just let it go, but no! She did it! The absolute madlass!

Aw man, Ichika has been my favorite from the start but I agree that she's the most suspicious of the girls.

Title’s called “begin the offensive”, they weren’t joking

So it’s the one who is least expected to confess first is the one who actually fires the first shot and says those 3 words. What a shocking turn of events! Automatic best girl for having the, balls (?), to be the first to admit their feelings. Heck yeah let’s go bro


Daily reminder that the one who confessed first is yotsuba, in episode 8 of season 1.

I literally forgot she confessed so I had to search it up again. Then I realized why I forgot; she friggin said IM JOKING afterwards. Even if she really did mean it, that doesn’t count bro... because fuutaro really believed she was joking.

Nino on the other hand, straight up said it and didn’t take it back at all

Individual relationship development have be great and unexpected as well considering the 1st season where most romantic interest conversation end abruptly as in sarcasm

Exactly. I mean yeah technically she was first, but she was the first to undo her confession too, so any credit she might have deserved for being "first" is immediately cancelled the moment she undid her confession. Nino also gets extra credit for confessing to Fuutaro literally in the day she realized her feelings for him, while Ichika and Miku still can't muster the courage to do so after months of realizing their feelings.

To be honest, I feel there was a Itsuki vs Nino moment in a bath towel but I somehow feel Nino won because her short hair does suit well and ^her eyes is damn HOTT
