Damn, Yamato really knows how to cook and she looked adorable this episode..

Takeo and Suna's relationship was pretty amusing and the transitions between Takeo's point of view with his life is interesting as well. I think his story was pretty interesting too despite being a bit lonely. The bromance was exceptional this episode imo. Those confessions though!

Yamato dressed up for the occasion!

Really enjoying Suna's role with both Yamato and Takeo relying on Suna quite a lot. The best friend relationships are always great.

Takeo elevating Suna's bed was hilarious, his strength to be unaffected! It really was nice to see a mutual confession like that in Suna's room.

The story with the Blue Ogre and with how Suna sees his usual attitude as being completely natural, bromance is too good :o

Takeo being generally up close, the difference in reactions, especially Yamato :)

Next week's title looks great already.

Wow, Suna is such a great guy. I didn't think he'd be much of an interesting character, but he has certainly caught me by surprise. And I'm glad they didn't drag the confession out for too long; leaving things as they were for much longer would have started to get tedious.

I thought we were going to get strung along with Takeo being oblivious to Yamato's advances for the entirety of the series. That was quite a surprise. Takeo and Yamato are actually quite perfect for each other with their over the top reactions to everything.

I wonder if Suna will distance himself from them at some point soon. It could be quite a twist to see Takao chasing after him.

I love seeing Suna crack up over every stupid thing that Takeo does. I'm glad that the misunderstanding between Takeo and Yamato didn't last too long. I'm excited to see their relationship develop, and I hope Takeo and Yamato can get Suna together with someone. Suna is such a great friend, that he deserves happiness equal to Takeo.

Suna is a really good friend and now we realize why he isn't dating any girls.

Suna you Unselfish Bastard your are the very definition of BEST FRIEND....I clap to you. :D

Yes they have already admitted there feelings towards one another which is a shock cause usually these type of romance shows drag on until the very end of a series and as far as i can't remember i have never seen a relationship between 2 main characters already established there feelings towards another so early...Props for the unique direction.

Also i liked the reference to blue oni and red oni with the real life scenario of both Takeo and Suna's relationship such as sad but wonderful story .:D

AOTS this one confirmed

That episode was amazing!I didn't expect both of them to confess their feelings already, but the way they did it was so cute <3 thanks to Suna. I got the feeling that it is actually Suna who is the lonely one. And the story with the ogre was so beautiful, yet also sad. I really start to love that anime.

Cute. This show did in 3 episodes what it takes most shoujos 2 cours to do. I hope we get some relationship development soon.

I also really love that Sunakawa is the idealized male lead, yet the trope is constantly averted.

I almost wanted to slap Takeo in the beginning of the episode, but then I realized that he'd probably kick my ass. Not a good idea.

This show is such a breath of fresh air. Three episodes in and they're already a couple. Everything about this shoujo is so honest, so genuine, and so nice.

Speaking of which, Suna is a true bro. I laughed at Yamato outright calling it a bromance. Because it really is.

Best episode yet, easily.

Well, I think that was pretty much intended :D
Score up to 10/10. Wtf is this 3/24 and the characters are already dating?!? Is it me or this is fucking rare to see - no drama and no long ass crap like missunderstandings just to prolong the story? Nisekoi, anyone :D

Now all this show needs is supports to create a decent story.

The OP gets even greater every time I listen to it.
Plot twist - Takeo x Suna ending.
Just noticed Suna looks alot like Taichi from Chihayafuru. I even thought they have the same seiyuus but nope.
Whoa, a confession already? I thought it will be more like Gekkan Shoujo so it's a nice surprise. I wonder how the show will go on from here.
The scene after the ending was gold.

Yeah. He has been. Takeo has always been so open and honest and Suna loves that. All those girls who confessed to him were so superficial he obviously never wanted to be with them. But Yamato comes and she's different from others. Suna does like her, but he realises there's no space for him since Yamato and Takeo both have eyes for each other only. He better not distance himself from both Takeo and Yamato now! X( Garrrr.

That confession came awfully quick; I was expecting more buildup, but that's OK. I haven't read the manga, but I do remember reading a Nisekoi x Ore Monogatari chapter on SJ. It's making more sense.

And with this we arrived at the end of the 1st chapter. Took 3 episodes to cover it, it is indeed a very long chapter.

Had a good laugh when Takeo came out from under the bed, it felt like I was watching Godzilla or something like that for a second XD

I still think that the play was a bit too heavy for kindergarten, such a deep story! Bromance is indeed one of the strong points in this series.

They're together now, but of course they're story is far from over. More to come!

This is certainly looking a lot like a straightforward Shoujo romance story.

- - - - - - - -

In case anyone is interested in how well this series is being received in Japan, it
looks like it is doing poorly. It is well below average. See below for the details.

I wonder if there was anything that turned Japanese viewers off of it?

- - - - - - - -

This is based on "Amazon Stalker points", which are a measure of the number of
pre-orders for the Blu-rays and DVDs. Here are the "Amazon Stalker points" as
of just a few minutes ago:

Volume 1 06/24 Blu-ray 761 DVD 233
Volume 2 07/22 Blu-ray 639 DVD 185
Volume 3 08/26 ...
Volume 4 ...
Volume 5
Volume 6
Volume 7
Volume 8

Out of laziness, I only looked up the number for the first two volumes.

Based on my experience of having looked up the Amazon Stalker points for many
anime TV series, I classify these numbers as "poor" and "below average".

Lots of people on MAL are expert on how to interpret Amazon Stalker points and
combine them with other sources of information and context. It would be great
if anybody wants to comment.

- - - - - - - - -

Here are the websites needed in case you want to learn how to look up Amazon
Stalker points.

Really glad I started this series and caught up with the manga. A breath of fresh air in the shoujo romance genre, development and character wise.

Takeo and Suna have some of the best bromance in anime I've seen, and Suna's the best wingman you can have.
