1. Love kato. Girls are usually hyper & out of control but kato's indifference is alluring. Still having a hard time putting up with tomoya's excessive passion. It's like looking at the sun… makes u want to look away.

2. But there's this uncanny vibe between kato x tomoya that can't be ignored. Can't leave this series just yet.

Man... the irony that Tomoya wants to train Megumi into the sterotypical galge heroine when she's totally fine in her own category.

Megumi, ruining Tomoya's ideals about girls at every turn, the one thing that even Utaha and Eriri couldn't do. I don't find it an issue with her lack of presence. In fact, it's like a breath of fresh air for shows like this.

Megumi would be a real gem to find in real life. Give how teenage girlfriends almost always expect their boyfriends to be psychic, Megumi's forthrightness and honesty (without the mean-spirit) is a great starting point for building a solid relationship.

Loved the interactions between Tomoya and Kato, speaking of which, she's so...normal, and for being so normal she stands out. Also loved the critics on tearjerkers.

Great episode, had a smile in my face the whole time, the dialogues were interesting as always.

5/5, a hidden gem.

I like how the scenes in the cafe barely shows Kato's face. xDD
Damn why can't I stop smiling when Kato started to talk..? Maybe her voice..?
Nice episode though, like the interactions between Tomoya and Kato a lot.

We pretty much watched a tsukkomi and boke episode... well what makes it different is that the tsukkomi has the tone of the boke (Kato) and the boke sounds like a tsukkomi (Aki)... which made it fun to watch.

Kato has the patience of a saint. >.<

This sums up the charm of the episode for me.

Overall it was still pretty average, and Tomoya's ranting bordered on cringe-worthy. Kato really is patient; I'd have been trying to get out of there too. The end part was kinda fun thanks to the above, though.

The meta comedy and references are still way too dry, but I did like Kato's observation about nakiges.

It's like Hyouka, or Yahari. The show focuses on the conversations and interactions between the characters making it really engaging. Had a lot of fun watching this and I actually laughed out loud a few times. This show surprised me.

Also, Kato is best girl.

Nop, I try to talk to every cute girl in all my classes. Even the ones that don't stand out. They either A. Are actually kinda bitchy so they really do hate everyone. or B. Already surrounded by other guys who are assholes and intentionally try to get in between you and them.

Course I'm not talking about high school/middle school. Talking more about college.. and yes in high school/middle school I wasn't exactly interested in girls. Sure I guess I had crushes but I was so shy I couldn't talk to the few girls I had crushes on, and they always had their own little groups which ALWAYS seemed closed off to me and wouldn't ever let me be apart of even if I tried. I.E. I got the cold shoulder many times..


So to sum it up. Girls in college don't ignore you, but they don't really care for you either. The girls in high school ignore you intentionally.

Also I'm not ugly, though I'm not handsome either I'm "average to very slightly above average". I'm probably the male version of how kato is described to be.. Though kato honestly seems quite cute and not average.

I ask you, the users, I can send to hell Aki-kun? If I were one of the stars, I would have thrown a punch in the face because it was so irritating, to make me angry bad.
Funny episode, I did not believe it could be so original.
The drawings and animations are excellent.

the fact that you wrote a paragraph about it might give an idea of why girls act like this towards you.

you try too hard.

Kato = best girl?

I noticed she left the table before the other characters did. I didn't go back to check when she actually left. Her stealth settings are epic.

This episode was quite enjoyable. Way better than anticipated.

Definitely liking Katou. She seems like someone who'd reply a "What's up?" with "the sky".


My dislike for Tomoya is growing. His obsession about the ideal dating sim is really getting out of hand.
I've seen other otaku characters before but somehow their "passion" was more of a gag to me compared to Tomoya.

Have to give props to all the girls in the show especially Katou. She's just taking in all his nonsense about his "ideal heroine" and getting insulted about her lack of defining features, which could easily earn him a slap to the face IMO. Can't believe she just stayed over at his house so easily, definitely best girl right there.

I love Katou!!

Even though any girl would probably freak out with these ridiculous request from an Otaku, i'm glad she didn't mind it and actually went on and even played 2 whole games in one whole night :O

Even surprise her parents didn't mind her staying from someone's else house.

Lol when Tomoya added, braids, megane and freckles she kinda looks like Tsubasa from Monogatari series XD

Actually looking now, she does look like Tsukihi :)

Katou is best girl!!! I can't wait to see more of her soon!!

Can't wait for the next episode!

Ok, I'm sold. Sorry guys, I'm gonna bandwagon that train. Katou is best girl. That's it. Her bland character, always pointing out the flaws in Aki perfect world is perfect.

Aki delusions knows no bound. That dude look like the kind who could easily become a stalker if Katou wasn't so easy.

Tomoya definitely has a point. Kato is way too carefree about that whole situation they were in. But due to that her responses are just too awesome :D Best character thus far. Somehow I kinda like that "bored" way of talking. Don't even know why(also not the first time I like a character because of that. Maybe it's just because other types are more common)

The cafe scene was nice, too. Just started to laugh after the waitress brought the wrong thing the second time. Totally didn't expect that (especially not while the main characters discuss something in front of it. Nearly missed that little detail in the back). And then Utaha and Eriri start kicking each other below the table xD totally misunderstanding Tomoya when he says he made a decision :D

Tomoya went full blast. Made her play all night. Kato is pretty cute when she's sleeping. Her personality is fine as it is, not sure why Tomoya wants to change it.

Megumi confirmed for best girl~ Seriously, her deadpan retorts are so much fun, and I don't think I've ever seen an anime girl quite like her before. I was almost going to write off this show as just another average harem after the first episode, but this episode certainly changed my opinion for the better, as it's quite possible that this will end up as a quality harem.
