The first half of the episode gave us a lot of information but it still felt really slow while the second half picked up the pace but was predictable beyond belief.

It was even more rushed then last week shame they cut out the Tachibana moments.
But well it was to be expected i guess.

They should have put more focus on the food and the way Tachibana threads Tohru because of it.

That ending was so cute better than the first episode for sure.

Also Julie is now officially loli of the season.

How was it rushed? All that happened in this episode was Tooru and Julie became a duo.

You know, its not bad. Theres a bunch of fan service, but for some reason it doesn't bother me very much. And i usually HATE fan service.
Hopefully we will start to get some actual plot next week though. I know its a ecchi show, but id like to learn a bit more about the characters and the world.

Wait, isn't that basically a wedding vows? They are fast in business, they even accept gay marriage! :D

Anyway, Julie is pretty cute. She sadly (or fortunately?) look affected by autism. Can she overcome her autism and look like any normal being eventually? That's what we'll see.

Who would have guessed that Tooru would have ended up with Julie and Tomoe with Miyabi? WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED??

All that fanservice is hilarious.

It was a nice episode & we got to know more about the characters. And I liked the relationship development between Tooru & Julie. But that ending was a bit cheesy. I mean, how come they already knew & memorized the oath? And why didn't they do the oath in front of the secretary's staff just like the others?

People, this is an ecchi-harem anime show. Remember? And, with the amount of ecchi fan service we got this episode, for an ecchi-harem anime show that was not that much. So I do not understand why some of you hoping for less ecchi. It will not happen(at least not until the main conflict starts).
I like anime.

Yay Tooru & Julie are officially a duo, I was so sad when she said was gonna go for Tomoe, but I'm glad Tomoe rejected her even though I felt bad. And that whole scene with Tooru & Tomoe before they started training was hilarious lmao.

All that Miyabi fanservice though LOL

Can't wait to meet the blonde chick, hope she's coming soon!

^ I quite like hearing it myself. But good luck in not bleeding out.

Loved it myself, I also like both Miyabi and Tomoe, though I have to say that I still prefer Julie. Also, until I inevitably see otherwise, I'm going to be looking at the Bunny Teacher as a vampire, due to that final scene...

I'm looking forward to next week.

That whole situation that led Tooru to make a Duo with Julie was so fucking forced, literally 1 episode after the introductions guys, why would i care about her? Would have much preferred if he made a Duo with childhood friend-kun.

Predictable episode.

That start was so cringeworthy...

3/5

I'm glad that the duo matching was taken care of this episode and didn't span across a long period of time. Julie's a somewhat interesting character so I guess I'll stick with it for at least a little longer. Seems that the bunbun teacher is evil, I imagine it has something to do with what those girls walking down the hallway said. I like how Thor was able to hear the bell jingle all the way at the bottom of the tower.

Better than the first...I think

That Duo contract is like a wedding vow. Good thing Tooru partnered up with Julie (which is expected) and not with Tora. It would have been embarassing to hear two guys say that. That would be like gay marriage. XD

Julie is adorable and Tachibana is like a strict wife to making Tooru eat veggies.

A 16 yo boy, probably a virgin as well, wanting to team up with a girl that shows interest in him is forced? Where were you in sport class in highschool?
If she's alone she doesn't get to be with a random partner, she's outright expelled. The moment her friend refused to team up with her she wouldn't be able to find another partner because most people are afraid of her so it's pretty much goodbye.

This show is horrible for so many reasons and you took the one that make the less sense, congratulation you're now a tryhard.

No, it was forced because right after the first episode we're given this situation where the MC has to pick the main girl. Of course glasses-kun could probably find another partner but that's not my point.

Something like this should've been executed later on, if the author is pairing them together then there was no need to throw this situation right off the bat, i barely got to know Julie, so i don't care about her, and i don't see why the MC would.

That sequence after the credits, what was it? When he had a reply ready for any reasons Julie could come up with to not join him. This is a perfect illustration of what i'm talking about. Too soon.

To summarize, this is a situation that should've been properly build, not thrown along with the pseudo drama in episode 2. Nice ad hominem btw.

5/5 episode

That muscle guy answering teacher's question was great. Also, even though I knew there was going to be some kind of crotch falling thing in this episode, the way they did it was so over the top I actually laughed at it, and I don't tend to laugh audibly much while watching anime. The random slip and the ensuing acrobatics was just so completely ridiculous it was perfect. Also the main girl is just adorable. Did not expect to like this show. I wish all the episodes were slice of lifey like this, I have a feeling I won't like it as much when it gets more action focused.
