I'm really happy that Suna didn't end up with Yukika. For me she's just a creepy stalker, Not cute at all. Why would he even date her? That wouldn't make any sense. And what's with all these comment about him being asexual? He's only 16 years old. Do you have to have a girlfriend at that age (of any) to be happy? Jeez, there are other things in life...maybe he's just happy with the life he has.

Really this anime tries to break every single clichade there is.

Here yet again we see a proper ending rather than forcing this pair. Sure from the start it didn't felt like it will end well but as the arc progressed there was that maybe... still we get the right conclusion.

This was a very lovely episode. I loved seeing the four of them spend time together at the zoo!

I loved all of Yukika's reactions, and it was always so nice to see Yamato and Takeo support her. <33

Even though Yukika felt sad that Suna didn't feel the same...I'm happy they talked it out and had a suitable closure. :) Suna really is kind; I was so touched when he formally thanked her and gave her his gift. <3

Hope to see Suna and Yukika talk at school, and deepen their friendship!

LOL at Suna's reaction when Takeo asked, "Suna, do you like me?" :P

It was too good to be true.
Felt pretty bad for Amami, but at least she was able to put some closure in her love for Suna. Now she's friends and can talk to him at school which wasn't a bad way to end Suna's arc I guess.


That security guard lol

To be honest though, I really get the feeling here that Suna might just not be interested in having a relationship. I wouldn't say he's straight up asexual, but, to me it seems as if he's just content and wants to wait to find someone that he wants to pursue, if anything at all. His life thus far has been him being adored and chased after, and seeing how many of those were to his best friend, I'm sure that he might one day if at all, end up with a girl or a guy, that he likes and wants to be with, and most likely, for the other person it will be ignorance or if nothing else, disinterest at first.

For a moment there when she wasn't answering calls I was thinking, "This is it. She's gonna off herself, & the last few episodes will be so sad. Saijou x10" Luckily after 15sec I realize that is not gonna happen.

Sunakawa is just too nice, but at the same time so aloof. Would it of killed him to engage more instead of just observing?

I was thinking the same thing, that would have been pretty dark for a lighthearted anime like this.

OT: Wow, Yukika really knows a lot about animals lol.

Well I'm not too surprised that there won't be some sort of romantic relationship between Suna and Yukika. I feel bad for her, but it looks like she's happy with this result so I guess it's all good. Nice mix of drama and comedy in this episode.

well, suna himself did say that he never felt anything for girls like takeo did. So perhaps he's aromantic (someone who doesn't feel love or isn't interested in relationships)?

I'm probably alone on this, but I think Suna is demi?? Like he mentioned before he has an interest in girls but those who confessed to him were all talking shit behind Gouda's back, so I don't think he's ace. But that's just my little opinion c:

Still rooting for Suna x Saijou!!! Their interactions were pretty cute :D

i think you meant "aro" not "ace" cuz there's nothing that suggested suna not interested in girls in a physical way, so far, it's only romantically, thus aro-aromantic

okay obviously suna could just not like that girl (tbh I found her kind of stalker-ish creepy even though she was cute, what with taking pictures of him and knowing everything about him) but it's kind of funny to me how some of you guys find it more plausible that he is asexual or aromantic instead of gay. anyway it doesn't really matter, i think this episode was pretty realistic and fun for choosing to go that way instead of suna magically reciprocating the girl's feelings. that being said, my headcanon is that suna is gay for takeo until proven otherwise

My heart is so heavy. This ep was too relatable.
Loved how realistic it was though. And it goes to show that Suna doesn't NEED a love interest in the series, as much as everybody wants him to.

Suna is so apathetic, I mean he does care but only rationally, he feels empty, no remorse just empty...

Suna likes Saijou

Ehh...that may or may not be true. I don't think he likes anyone though because he probably would have told Takeo by now.


I also think this is a good ship, especially given the hint that she will have a new love interest, but I doubt that at the moment Suna has feelings for anyone. Even to Takeo, lol. In any case, I do not want Suna to remain our token bromance guy.

I have a feeling that Suna is either asexual, gay or hasn't met the girl he truly likes. I wasn't feeling Yukika, too much stupid drama and even though she's a megane kara, I didn't feel anything special for her.


Asexual theory still makes sense, but all the talk that he is gay or that he is in love with Takeo is just nonsense. The show is quite open about the fact that he has no romantic feelings for MC and that the idea of ​​physical intimacy with Goda is disgusting to him.

The show did not reject his lack of romantic or sexual desire, but it clearly rejected the idea that he was gay. And as I said, people are just obsessed with romance. Therefore, if a character does not have a canonical romantic partner, they will constantly try to find a reason for this, including delving into their sexuality and trying to ship the character with their friends. The fact that a person may simply not be interested in a relationship or not see a suitable love interest among familiar people does not take them into account.

Well Suna certainly tried getting to know her. I can't blame anyone here, they all tried their best to make it work. Off to the last two episodes, hopefully with more focus on Takeo and Yamato again!

Glad unpretty Amami is out. If she cannot transform her looks she does not deserve victory. The boys like the cute girls like Saijou and Nanako.

Oh yes, the feels were too strong. And how bittersweet it was.

But not as bitter as initially assumed, surely most of us thought that Yukika would take her life :S She has the charm of a granny, she's still a cutie, tho. Hope she and Suna can find the right one eventually.

Great episode. The comedy, the drama and the happy yet wistful ending. This had it all.

Noooo!! :( She got turned down, kinda. But Yukika seems to be happy. She is strange girl, lol.

I liked how Takeo matured as a young man and a boyfriend since the first episode.

The trip to ZOO was dank. You could learn some things about animals as well. :p

In the end, we all know bromance is the best kind of romance.

Now seriously, it was a quite decent episode and though Yukika's uninspiring character didn't convince me in the slightest, the way how her situation with Suna was handled and concluded was really of my liking.

I'm glad Yukika ended up liking Suna. The way he treated her feelings seriously and gave her space to confess her feelings even though he didn't feel the same is a really mature decision! I'm glad he isn't one those cold and cool characters :) this show is just super wholesome!

When I watch an anime, I always think about what it teaches me and Ore Monogatari made me think about how the society is divided. From one side women who are more judgmental and from the other side men are more carelessness. I think men are more fascinated by Takeo and his statue because we tend to relate muscle to hard work, especially if you are someone that goes to the gym, it's easier for you to understand how hard it is to have results.
I believe women, especially teenagers, are too thoughtful, they are afraid by what others would think, so because of this they build a mentality that only want something or someone that looks good in coherence with what their friends and society would think that looks good, so they tend to care less about what they really feel.

I think watching this anime makes us all want someone like Takeo in our life, because we all have experienced situations that made us suffer, maybe it was due to someone's egoism or the cruelty of others, but we all need someone who is genuinely kind without anything in return and motives us to actually do something good even if it's hard to do.

Shame it didn't work out but it's alright. I more disappointed that it was over so quickly, I would've liked another episode of them trying to get closer :(

I did like the role-reversal with Takeo playing matchmaker for Suna this time.
