THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------

Ranks 1 and 2 does not surprise me. It's the result of reading so many books for literature.

Funny episode. Chifuru has a tasty mind. Now that I watched the episode, I want a taste of curry too. A lot talk about love this episode but who will win Andou in the end? Also, fucking Sagami. He's crossed the line this time.

The person that made Andou the person who he is today being Tomoyo.

That serious reaction about Andou using his powers. Wonder just what changes was done to Dark and Dark.

Tomoyo be ranked the last among the club xD Dumber than Andou being a bad thing!

Hatoko slipping the word out!

Andou saying his weakness is not having emotions xD When he continues with that, Chifuyu has glittering eyes and when he doesn't he is a liar xD

Every girl's love for Andou confirmed, even Chifuyu!

Sagami treating love like a game, man he pissed me off when he was coming in the girl's washroom with that attitude.

With only 3 episodes left, I don't expect this to go anywhere.

Hopefully this will get a second season, I like it more every episode.

It almost feels like an attempt to break them apart over their love for Andou, but I'm probably reading too much into it considering how little time we have left. Still left with an unsettling vibe from this one though...

Well, this episode confirmed what we've all been thinking (and what was heavily implied in previous episodes). Everyone "loves" Andou. I'm not usually one for harems though. Those can get very crazy. XD

So I guess my prediction on what the evolved version of Dark and Dark can do was wrong? Last week, I predicted that it didn't do anything at all. However, from the general reaction of all the club members, I think that it's safe to say that it's actually a lot worse than I was thinking.

Can't really say much for Chifuyu and Sayumi, but Tomoyo and Hatoko look like the better choices.

Dammit, I wanted to see what's up with Andou's awakened power, but I feel as if it's only going to be revealed on the last episode or something >_>

I feel like this story is self-ware about being a light novel. Especially with the "reader" character and his shipping, and how Hatoko wants to be chosen by the MC. Interesting.

I had originally thought Mirei would play a larger role in the series, with her inclusion in the OP/ED and large part in episode 2. It's kinda disappointing that that was pretty much her only role.

I think someone mentioned in the previous episode thread that Sagami was a bit suspicious and maybe had something do with F. He is acting quite weird here at least.
Plus, and I don't know if it's been mentioned before I might have missed it, his family name Shizumu is a bit close to how a Japanese pronounces System (shisutemu).

I feel like the ending tells us how close each girl is to andou. First is tomoyo, right next to him is hatoko, then we have Chifuyu, then sayumi, and then mirei being the farthest from him. I'm hoping for tomoyo to pick up the slack and confess, if not I'm fine with a harem ending.

So we didn't got to know his new power, but he's forbidden of using it again.
1- it's a power to tear clothes
2- it's something that can really give pain to Andou.

Anyways, Chifuyu starting to feel love, that was so cute <3
And those two confrontations, is that guy from F?

Great episode, the novel is loose in the air, and it seems that with a pinch of drama too, I was curious about the new power of Andou, but what caught our attention in this episode were thoughts of love, will start a fight by the protagonist?

Hatoko was direct with Tomoyo, Sayumi was confronted by Sagami (what the hell this guy want?) and Chifuyu realizes his feelings, I'm really curious to see how will be the development of history now ..

Ooo, now the romance *officially* begins. Random creepy wingman practically blew Sayumi's chance, so it's pretty much Tomoyo vs. Hatoko.

Rooting for Hatoko in term of romance. Tomoyo is the best girl to me, she's a tsundere well done but not necessarily the one I want to be with MC. Chifuyu's pretty nice, but I don't see her winning for an obvious reason. So Andou x Hatoko it is - that, or Andou x Dark and Dark. Above all, though, I am more curious about Andou's power and F.

I always keep forgetting who Sagami is and when he actually played his role.

Anyway, I'm loving the harem-intensified plot. I'm leaning more and more towards Tomoyo. She's just perfect for Ju-kun right now. Hatoko's about to lose it for me.

As much as I ship Andou with Tomoyo, I find the recent development with Sayumi very interesting.

But first up, that was a brilliant and very genre savy declaration of war by Hatoko. Unfortunately, it could backfire easily - I think Tomoyo and Andou were on course to becoming best hobby-buddies, but stuck in the Friend Zone, never truly conscious of their mutual chemistry or attraction to one another. It could easily have spun around in circles as a Manzai duo between a Chuunibyou and ex Chuuniyou that goes nowhere romantic. But, by declaring romantic war, and by recognizing Tomoyo as a threat, she might have just made Tomoyo conscious that a relationship between Tomoyo and Andou is a very real prospect, from an outsider's view, and might have forced Tomoyo to confront feelings that Tomoyo has been avoiding behind the Tsun.

Secondly, because both Tomoyo and Hatoko were well on course for the Friendzone in the status quo, I don't think the Sayumi pairing is as crazy as it sounds. Yes, Sayumi is the least preferred and least popular of the girls. And even Andou's relationship with Sayumi isn't as developed and firm as Tomoyo and Hatoko - but , it also raises the prospect that Sayumi could escalate and pursue a romance, without the risk of the Friendzone, precisely because Andou's relationship with her is not as well defined as that of Tomoyo and Hatoko. In other words, there's no status quo to break, there's a status quo to make for Sayumi. So, Sagami raised a very interesting possibility this episode, and contrary to some viewers, I think it opens the way for Sayumi to come very close to securing a romance with Andou, though of course, I get the impression that Andou is a tad bit intimidated by her at times.

Given that both Tomoyo and Hatoko are fixated on each other as the key romantic rivals, an Hatoko thinks she's in a Love Triangle, there's a very real risk that both of them will be completely blindsided by Sayumi. And I suspect this is the dynamic Sagami is hinting at here.

As for Chifuyu, unfortunately, I think she's stuck in the Imouto Zone, and the next episode will only confirm it.

And Mirei. Poor Mirei. If the harem really starts, I dare say Episode 2 was a very cruel, sub-conscious pre-emptive exclusion of Mirei from the harem, by the girls pressuring Andou to rescind the relationship. She really had the misfortune of firing her guns too early. Sagami is wrong - Sayumi isn't the least favored, rather Mirei is in the worst position of any of the girls.

Finally, I'd like to make a note on the relationship hierarchy between Andou and the girls.

Andou - Chifuyu, from Andou's perspective, and Chifuyu's conscious perspective , is that of a pseudo-sibling.

Andou- Hatoko unfortunately, is one where Hatoko plays the role of being sub-ordinated. It isn't just that sub-ordination that Hatoko is resentful of, I think more accurately, she's happy being in the sub-ordinated, traditional wife position. It's just that she struggles to inhabit Andou's world, to understand and communicate with Andou.

Andou- Tomoyo is one of the most interesting relations. Their relationship is built on the basis of solid equality They see eye to eye with one another,have one of the strongest chemistries in the cast, have compatible interests that binds them together, have a common language and communication code. I actually think Andou even in non-Chuunibyou mode is at his most truest self when with Tomoyo. It's not surprising that Hatoko thinks that Tomoyo is the biggest threat, Tomoyo has alot of things going for her... if she can avoid the Friendzone, which alas she's close to falling into if she's not careful.

Andou-Sayumi is a relationship where Sayumi would wear the pants, in any romance.I think Andou often sees Sayumi as a leader figure, a superior of whom he'd back down for. Sometimes, of course, Sayumi and Andou swoops down to meet eye to eye, as had happened in Sayumi's episode. But I think there's a power distance that unfortunately makes her one of the weaker contenders, as Sagami claims. Therein lies that potential though - because so little is settled, and whenever the powergap closes, Andou and Sayumi have impressive chemistry (but none at all when the power gap is active), there's alot of potential for Sayumi to move to a romantic relationship level. This is such a development that would more or less come up of the left field from Tomoyo and Hatoko's perspective
