| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Oo, I actually think some of these characters look good in their casual outfits especially Touko. Of course, the show continues to build more into Yuu/Touko's relationship. Yuu seems to be quite comfortable with expressing her love now too. I am quite pleased how they're protraying characters during their more emotional moments. Yuu seems to be much more confident around Touko now. |

What part made you think Yuu's in love? Did you mean Touko? Yuu seems to be much more confident around Touko now. Is what's actually happening.P.S. How are you watching all these episodes first? |

| This episode, they add some original element into the anime, I like it. ...but some intrigue is too early to show in ep.3 |
| Hi grandma, hi mom, this is senpai, shes gay, and im too. Lmao. Also how long until the basket girl realize she's gay ? |
 |
| This episode was so good. Troyca is doing an amazing job bringing this to life. Although I think some of the translations were off in the sub from what I remember. |
|
| Another good episode. It looks peaceful, but things should ramp up in a few episodes. Looking forward to the drama! |

How are you watching all these episodes first? Don't only listen to a character's monologue or what their outward dialogue is as your point of reference for what their feelings are. Look at what they do, how they respond in difference scenes, and so on. Yagate Kimi ni Naru is most likely going to be as much a story about Yuu learning about her own feelings and how to accept and understand them, as it is about how the two get closer through their experiences. Three episodes in and we have as many kisses as some shows manage over the course of several years and multiple seasons. That should say something about where the two stand. |

Three episodes in and we have as many kisses as some shows manage over the course of several years and multiple seasons. That should say something about where the two stand. Right now I feel she's at the stage where she wants to be in that special relationship and acts accordingly. She may develop feelings later but, right now, from what I can tell she doesn't have romantic feelings for Nanami; more 'I want to be in love' than 'I am in love'. Nokkun said: might be a better way of putting it.she might have appeared to be warmer when comforting Touko, but it was a distant warmth, masked by a clear absence of feelings. She continues to be around Touko, but I think the reason is clearly selfish. The anime seems to be leaning more towards Yuu having feelings than I can remember from the manga, however, so I can see where you're coming from. Particularly the scene where Yuu first meets Nanami, it seems to imply a 'love at first sight '. Though maybe I missed something. I might have also misinterpreted Yuu: the VA gave the impression to me of a lover when she asked: "How much do you like me", when I read it as more curiosity. |

| You got a deeper insight of Nanami's character this episode. Yuu's speech was good. She planned to join the student council then huh. |
 |
| its been a while since we got a nice paced series. also no irritation feelings that i usually get when watching cliche moments. and i love the "glimpse of reality" shown during koito's family dinner. it was very short/subtle. the moment her father said he'd be terrified/shocked if yuu went les. it might seem like a light-hearted comedy factor, but the implications will be resurfaced later on. so yeah, this series isnt just about being les without public consequences. its nice to have a certain degree of realism right? |
| Is it just the version I'm watching or are there some major translation mistakes in the episode? |
| That was lovely. This show is doing everything right so far, unlike what Citrus did in January. |
| Best episode so far. This is one of my favorites yuri manga and despite not liking the first episode these last two have been very good. I hope this series will improve yuri's image because Citrus did nothing good... |

| Beautiful episode. Being actually needed is something special in this relationship and what I've missed in other romances. |

But then later, I'm not so sure of myself...and that shows on your face, right? I get nervous and flushed..." "You made me your campaign manager out of self-interest, but then get anxious yourself later on, and it shows on your face quite a bit, right? You get flushed so easily." 4."I said that so forcefully...Maybe we won't even have to do any campaigning..." "I said that on impulse...There's no reason for me to announce it right here..." 5. The "special side of her" should be "Senpai's special", the line you mentioned seemed to be cut. Edit: Nvm it's written in the scene, and yeah the translation is completely off. It should be "that's why it's me" not "and so...what am I?". Not sure how they even messed that up Oh yeah and although not inherently wrong the final "I so like you" just feels a bit awkward, I feel like "I love you" would flow a lot better while not altering the context." |

| This is so cute!! I am so grateful this exists. Touko ended up in her crush's home. I can just imagine her fear. lol! The older sister, so easily, asked if Yuu had a girlfriend. I already love her! The father, however, brought us back to reality. :( When Touko and Yuu had a bonding moment before the speech, I loved that they didn't add Sayaka looking at them like a jealous love triangle. Instead, so far, she is quite the supportive friend. The scene, where Touko said 'daisuki' to Yuu, and Seiji just stared at them in surprise was so adorable!! Someone should buy those three one gigantic teddy bear each. Waiting for the next episode is going to be really difficult! I already miss this anime. |
| Fangirls go "kyah!" and fanboys go "ooooh~~" 3 episodes in and this Shoujo Ai series is a wonder, none of that trashy detriments that made Citrus. Touko and Yuu pretty much still in exploration stages of their innocent love, and the relationship build-up is exactly what I have thought after all this while: No matter the facades they may have, they still make up for one another in their own strengths and weaknesses. The love and embrace that Yuu was initially embarrassed in from Touko's advances, she takes it with the heart that accepts her wholeheartedly, and that is a mark of quality. TROYCA, you have done justice. |
 |
| The visual storytelling in this show is extremely impressive. So far what really strikes me for Yagate is the fact that it started going down the path of generic Shoujo Ai "kira kira blush" "oh senpai ravish me but wait... no... we're both girls..." path and then eschewed that completely. So far it's avoided all the pitfalls of Bad Yuri Trash and that makes me very happy. What's gotten me smitten with the show is definitely the visual direction, though. The awkward glances, the nervous clothes-fiddling, the friggin' close-up eyes... Yuu and Touko both have been pretty poor at communicating verbally about their feelings, but they are still able to convey them to each other and I think it's really nice. The only other show Yagate's director Katou Makoto has done is that Sakurako show from about three years ago. I remember people liking that one a fair bit, and after this I might actually check it out. |
| Great episode, this is shaping up to be really good and I honestly wasn't expecting this to be this good. I loved Touko's reactions to first going to Koito's house by accident, though I bet she totally wanted to just walk with her longer, lucky her. xD That scene where Touko's gives Koito the gift is so adorable. <3 I loved how they're showing how Touko is only able to break her mask in front of Koito, while that is lovely I kinda wonder how it is for Koito. Who does she get to break her mask in front of? I'm awaiting the moment she realizes she needs Touko as much Touko needs her. The speech stuff was great, honest words from the heart always go far. :) |
 |
| Wow I just love the directing in this show, it's exactly what I wanted. Even the incorporation of first person camera is growing on me, it's such a beautifully directed show. One of the more interesting romance with a main character who has trouble finding love. 5/5 I'm looking forward to the rest, if it keeps going like this it's going to be one of my top shows of this season. So happy I decided to give it a shot after seeing the opening. |

Wow those are some major mistakes, damn. I hope next episodes will have better translation then, since I thought some part of the dialogue was just weird and hard to understand, I just thought it was me being dumb lol. |

Lairucrem said: Veromaye said: Not going to happen. Well that's gonna be a problem for me if she just realized she's asexual in the end, how is this even a yuri lol Is not a Yuri, is a Shoujo-Ai. And she's not asexual. If you're talking about Yuu ( The MC ) then idk why you say Basket, she's not in the Basket team, if you talk about the tall girl, she is in the basket team, and she's not asexual nor gay. Also Yuu is pretty much gay but that's not the point. She just doesn't know how to experience love. |
| Finally, an interesting episode. The first two episodes were decent but very boring. The romance between Yuu and Touko have a good pacing. Also, I like the speech, Yuu is very nice. Yuu's family is introduced. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Best episode of the three so far. Quite wholesome. |
| This is the best thing since Aoi Hana! :) Why are so many of you mentioning Citrus? It is nothing like this. This is more realistic and sweet and not full of rape or fan service. It is just sad that once this is over it will probably take long before we get something this nice again. Really liked the scene with the family. 5/5! |
| I love how this anime is not full of fanservice, I love how every character have something unique to them, I love that they made the relationship between character so normal, I love how they didn't make this over the top sexual just because it's yuri, I LOVE how they made this to be a normal and good romance anime just like the heterosexual couples kind of romance anime. In short I love how they didn't treat this anime like half hentai just because it's yuri. Conclusion: this is the real yuri I want to see more often than not |

ahneeme said: I want a yuri series with grown women instead of fucking high school kids It's perhaps not strictly a yuri series, but unless you have not already watched it, Kobayashi's maid dragon is very good. |
| And that was another very good episode. The way Yuu was comforting Touko felt kind of distant (for obvious reasons since Yuu still has no feelings for her) but it was nice to see she had the real intention to do so. And in the end, she came to the conclusion that she wants to be around her and in that way, understand her own feelings. I just love how this story is developing. Also, I would like to mentions how good the visuals are in this show. Aside from the OP sequences, the way they use the camera angles and how they highlight the importance of backgrounds during conversations are just great. A real pleasure to the view, honestly. P.S.: Touko looking for any reason to see Yuu more often was really cute. She could have waited to give her the present at school but she was just too eager to see her again >.< Kawaritai said: This is the best thing since Aoi Hana! :) Why are so many of you mentioning Citrus?

And yeah, it's kind of annoying to see so many people mentioning Citrus since it was more about fanservice than something else... |
| It will get better for some more time before it falls a bit and levels at a decent quality, at least that is what the story does in the manga as far as i read it. I think people overestimate the fathers statement. For example I'm straight, but my father sometimes joked around that i might be gay because i didn't have a girlfriend and that would be a shock, but it was never meant that if i would swing that way he would not support me. In addition i think in Japan it is even less a factor. They might not be as supportive of LGBT members in Japan, but they also seem to have less of a stake of any negativity around it (no religion etc.) and especially lesbians seem to be seen as quite the ok thing even though many people might underestimate it as 'a phase'. I don't think her father would have any problems with Yuu coming out as gay, he probably just be surprised for a moment and come to terms with it pretty quick after that. Also the rest of the family (sister obviously, grandma and mother) seem to be pretty open and would bring him in line fast if that would be a problem which i don't think it is. Also Yuu at the moment is neither gay nor straight, to be honest at the moment she is basically nothing and even if she discovers her feelings for someone it is probably just a question about the gender after the fact that she discovers feelings for someone so in usual terms we could call her a mix of asexual and bisexual. |
 |
| Nanami's advances, so clumsy it translates clumsily in anime form. Ah, the 'because you were the first who was xx to me' cliche. But more elaborate and well constructed. Actually the dialogue between the two is a level below the girl on girl dialogue in, say, Euphonium, or GLT. But still all around good. YuuYuu's so perfect in this show. |
| Once again, I really enjoyed this episode. It might've been a month since Yuu and Touko first knew each other, but I think their friendship is progressing at a slow, but nice pace. Yuu is still unsure of her feelings and it's obvious that she doesn't have any romantic feelings for Touko right now, but she enjoys her company and as shown with her chat with Touko before the election speeches, she helped her to stay calm and reassured her. Along with the impressive visuals and camera angles, the whole scene itself was really pleasant. =) And thankfully, Touko succeeded in becoming the student council president, so well done to her. I'm sure that Yuu will be able to experience what love is all about. It'll take time, but I'm sure she'll understand it soon enough. =) |
