It's like every episode of this anime is sooo amazing I can't get enough. I sit in front of the computer with a big smile crossing my face like some moron, this anime really gets to you. You feel the happiness Sawako feels, it's such a warm anime.
Most of the animes, as good as they can get, will never pass the manga. Mostly manga is the best. In this case I can't really judge because I never read the manga, but this anime is done SO FRIGGIN WELL that I can't imagine me enjoying the manga better.
The voice actors, the background music, the animation, the colors, the movments.. It's all done so amazing, bringing this great story to life.

Very nice episode, it seems that the blond girl will get involved soon.
I think she has some evil plans in secret.

Yeah, exciting when it's made explicit that one of the girls stand no chance, and is only going to make life difficult for the pairing that is trying to work its way out.

On the other hand, I finally understand why people love the voice of Aya Hirano. There's just something about it that sets it apart from other female voices.

That Kurumi have some evil eyes and an hypocrit expression. I don't trust her at all, she seem vicious.

Sawako can be such a cutie when she doesn't make goofy face :3

Sawako is so much cute with her braided pigtail hairstyle. She's beginning to fall in love with Kazehaya.

Kazehaya saw her gardening the plants from the window while Kurumi was talking to her about the CD. I love how he adores Sawako. I could sense that Kurumi's being jealous after seeing him being absorbed into Sawako.

Sawako and Kazehaya practiced soccer together. On the other hand, Kurumi watched them from the window. Her fake personality and beauty can't deceive me.

Aren't we all thinking the same thing here? There's some darkness inside Kurumi that we haven't seen yet...

So this episode starts off with Kurumi talking to her friends about Kazehaya. She seems pretty certain that he and Sawako like each other. Her friends laugh it off but she doesn’t doubt it. She seems like a nice girl. I hope her and Sawako don’t have any future conflicts, though I feel like at this point it might be inevitable.

Sawako is so precious. She was so happy that other students weren’t ignoring her and that they were even trying to get her to smile for good luck. She also realized she has more friends now, which made her even happier. It was really cute when Ayane and Chizuro try to get her to drop the honorifics on everyone. She was far too flustered for that lol. But at least she tried.

There’s going to be a sports festival soon. Of course Pin decides to make Kazehaya a committee member. Chizuro is clearly pumped being the athlete she is and wants to make sure their team wins no matter what. So she takes the girls out to practice soccer during lunch. Sawako isn’t the most productive soccer player, she can’t even kick a ball, but she’s adorable so it all works out. Kazehaya clearly agrees when he sees that she’s braided her long black hair, pointing it out and making her blush. So cute. I don’t think she realizes just how head over heels she is for him. She just stares at him for about 5 straight minutes as he walks off, red as a beet lol.

Sawako decides she wants to practice soccer alone after school so she can get better.
The school staff won’t let her borrow a ball so she has to give up. She instead goes to water the school flowers, and from a window Kazehaya can see her. He was in the middle of chatting with Kurumi but gives Sawako all of his attention, becoming completely transfixed by her as soon as he spots her. Kurumi sees this and it’s not hard to notice how much it hurts her. I didn’t like the look in her eye. It looked almost yandere-ish lol.

While watching Sawako, Kazehaya notices her kicking around a rock kinda like a soccer ball, so after the meeting is over he finds her with a ball in his hands, ready to help her practice. I think it’s pretty clear in this scene that the two are starting to realize their feelings for each other. Kurumi just watches both of them, quietly from a window, giving the ending of this episode a very melancholy feel.

Honestly, Kurumi looks like the devil in disguise. All smiles and good actions on the outside but with selfish intentions in the inside. I don't trust her one bit.

All in all, it was a good episode, I liked the fact that Sawako's friends list is slowly increasing and it also seems that she will have another one in the next episode although I don't know what to think about her having that girl Kurumi as a "friend"... but you know what they say: keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Let's see what kind of problems this "new" girl will bring.

Can't figure out whether the Kurumi girl is nice or not, maybe? She's really cute and seems like she's disregarding her feelings/just not acting; that made me feel bad for her.

Looks like we found an antagonist. I'm pretty sure Kurumi is going to do something bad to Sawako and her friends.

Without a single word, just a quick and quiet shot, they conveyed jealousy perfectly. Not screechy anger, not a foaming at the mouth freak-out, just silent emotional pain.

Sawako's smile gifts good luck huh, more like it gifts a heartwarming feeling.

Preparing for football and Stalker B watching on, I still don't trust her, those eyes hide evil.

@Daviljoe193 This already puts her above a lot of other shows. A lot of the other anime have Wattpad type of writing, where the antagonist is obvious AF.
