| So as mentioned in an earlier ep, we go back to June after Tomoe actually comes to terms with her feelings. It was a pretty decent resolution. I wonder if he ever told Mai about how he pretended dated another girl. Probably not, but Tomoe is suppose to be his good friend now, so if she still plays a part Mai might be wondering who he knows this girl. Interesting at the end we meet a girl with the same name as his first crush. I wouldn't be surprised if it is the same girl, but just under some puberty syndrome bs considering Sakuta mentioned her vanishing from school records and all that. |
| Strong ep, don't mind the month-reset. Looking forward to more mai-time but I'm sure we'll have to wait till after this next arc. Not read the novel but i hope we get more dedicated Mai episodes. I'm a fan of Monogatari which has similarities to this show but I always wished we'd get more Senjougahara screentime in that show too lol. |
nachtweiss said: Thank you sir,FMmatron said: I actually asked if there are people who are not convinced about this show being a harem, cause it obviously looks and is portrayed like a harem. We have two girls so far, and we will probably get another two arcs with two new ones. They're hopefully not going to fall in love with Sakuta too, but they will most likely get close to him as well. There are also his sister and Futuba, even tho they're not in any kind of romantic relationship with him, he's still surrounded by girls at the end of the day. So this show has the structure of a harem and focusses on that aspect, not that it is a bad thing. Definition of harem on the internet "A genre in manga and anime where a single (often ordinary) guy is liked and followed by bunch of girls (3 or more) who are all madly in love with him. The girls often fight each other to get the guy's attention." umm, don't feel like this show is harem by the above definition? I was about to do the same research to educate these people of their distorted and skewed definition about harem anime. Just because a guy just happened to be among girls doesn't mean it's harem. Heck if I were a guy I would have one in school and at work because I happen to have friendships and acquaintances with multiple women. Enough with this nonsense about this anime being harem; It's so asinine. |

-Mahesvara said: Spannerhead said: And the fact that Mai is way to kind and caring to be the twisted and manipulative type.I don't think so, although he almost certainly has the impression that there's SOMEONE out there who feels that way about him. Something's going to have to come to a head between him and Kamisato. Same. Every single thing for the past 6 episodes has pointed directly to the fact that Sakuta does what he wants, when he wants. He's with Mai by choice. No manipulation. And he gives as good as he gets with her. Add in the fact that she gave Kaede her clothes in hopes that one day she would be able to leave her house. If she was really high and mighty I don't think she would take any interest in Sakuta's family. |

| This episode confirmed that this show is pretty much Kaminomi (The World God Only Knows) repackaged. |
| I just realized that Sakuta and Kunimi's conversation on the train was 100% ambiguous---they could have been discussing either Sakuta & Koga OR Kunimi & Futaba. Sakuta could have either been asking for advice on the Koga situation OR giving Kunimi a subtle hint that there's someone out there interested in him. Great writing. |
| Set SCE to AUX |
| I'm so happy they brought back the credits rolling while the episode finishes. It's so aesthetically pleasing especially when paired with the soft outro music! In other news: Koga got got. |

| Another great episode. Very nice conclusion to Koga's arc. The rejection scene was great. Koga grew on me as a character and I felt bad for her rejection but it's for the best. I like how Sakuta handled the situation. Bunny girl tutor!  This guy has no shame. I love it! XD  Koga's butt is an excavator.  The best moment of this episode  A new cute girl appears!  So the next arc will probably be about her? I just remembered her name. She was the one Sakuta mentioned before which was the reason he enrolled in the current high school he's in. |
 |
| I didn't expect Koga to roll everything back. Then again, she still has her precious memories and an ironclad friend. Koga's new group also seems a lot less toxic than the one that she frequented before... Koga's confession totally didn't make my heart flutter. Not at all. She did really well, though. |
| WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY......................... (even tho everybody see this coming, still...... whyyyyy) |
 |
| aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand harem. There. Done. still good, but not as much as the first episodes imo. |
I think I don't know wtf I'm doing. Maybe. Probably. |
| Is this really a good solution? Making last episodes not happened in 'real' world? Making it that way so Mai got no reason to be jealous? and the new girl is the one from his youth days on the beach? |
| (づ￣ ³￣)づ ちゅっ ちゅっ キス (´｡✪ω✪｡｀) I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;) |
Thyriad-oPPailov said: Is this really a good solution? Making last episodes not happened in 'real' world? Making it that way so Mai got no reason to be jealous? and the new girl is the one from his youth days on the beach? It's not the the last episodes not happened, just particular parts involving this fake dating did not happen. Mai still bonded with Kaede, Koga still started to work part time where Sakuta & Kunimi works, the bunny girl suit scramming session etc. Also Mai wasn't exactly jealous nor was it the point of the scenes that are gone now. At multiple points she demonstrated that she's more worried for Koga to get hurt by Sakuta's rejection than for Sakuta to somehow drift away, she did not even consider that. What the scenes displayed were just how immune their relationship is to things that would normally strain it. They talk it out in a mature yet quirky way and it doesn't devolve into unnecessary drama. She trusts in him and he appreciates it by returning her trust with loyalty. So overall the characterization of Mai & their relationship that we & Sakuta got from those scenes still remain. And yes that's her. |
| If ya friendship end bz of a relationship, that gotta be bad. At least Koga will have friends that truyl care for her now. |
Janethan23 said: FMmatron said: I disagree, the one thing you can never do for a person desperately trying to win you over is to give them the wrong impression that she has a chance by being that close and intimate with a hug. For once I applaud Sakuta from not playing into the harem garbage troupe of not being indecisive and weak. Harem MCs are the worst characters ever written....the conclusion was satisfying, could've been even better when Sakuta had taken Tomoe into his arms, it's better than letting her cry on his own. That would be being nice to her again, but personally I think it should be done in such a situation. Gildesh said: Less of a harem? Are you serious?The setting is one highschool guy with 5 bishoujo that like him (or probably will) in one way or another. It's a harem if I've ever seen one. The mc heroically rejecting any other girls and sticking with the first heroine doesn't make it less of a harem. I've seen a lot of harems before and if there's one element it has that is constant to every genre is that the girl has a chance (even remotely) with the main guy. Like I stated earlier to the other poster: The protagonist isn't weak nor is he indecisive, as a matter of fact he's the complete opposite which a harem genre MC needs to sustain multiple girls wanting that chance to win the main guy. Sukata maybe attracting girls indirectly outside of his relationship with Mai but he does't waver from his already made choice and DOES NOT string along the side characters. He's inadvertantly building friendships while fixing their issues. So much this. He's building friendships, not a harem. And what we got so far was a simple love triangle. |

Samoan said: Are you retarded or just socially inept? Can you even comprehend what you're even typing? So with your logic forming friendships with the opposite sex is considered building a harem. All you harem junkies need a reality check.evilcorn said: building friendships with just girls ? .So much this. He's building friendships, not a harem. And what we got so far was a simple love triangle. He just turn from a loner antisocial who dont give a f about anyting to the savior for the girls (typical harem shows) |

She understood the situation and why he was pretending to date Koga, but she teases him about it because that's kind of their dynamic. |

| This episode was a bit toned down because of the repeating concept... That was a bit huge rant by Koga! nicely done! Rem is next! i meant her VA! lolz 4/5. |
 |
| I love how...everything's so clean, so calculated, so 'to expectations', how they repeated the day, exactly in the way I thought, exactly as satisfying as I thought it would be, exactly as entertaining as I thought it would be. This would be a criticism if the show was a SF psychological blockbuster, but it's not, it's this, so it's a compliment. Refreshing and nourishing. Can't be a 10/10, but the best 8/10 on earth, eh? The MV for 'Don't Delete the Kisses' - appropriate, somehow |

| Koga still have feeling for Sakuta? Well next paradoks chapter... |
Xavian- said: I just hope this doesn't turn into a harem. Sakuta literally asked out Mai and they are officially dating as of this episode. What more do people need? |
Fappa said: Xavian- said: I just hope this doesn't turn into a harem. Sakuta literally asked out Mai and they are officially dating as of this episode. What more do people need? +1 With Koga, he did absolutely nothing more than was "required" of him during their fake dating time. And he explicitly told her about his feeling for Mai. What frustrates me is when people comment anticipating a Sakuta-Futaba-Kumini love triangle in the next arc. Please. |

KinoEgg said: Okay, so I'm really confused now. When did Koga and Sakuta kick each other's butts? It's all in ep.2. Next arc will be about Futaba, not Shoko. |

| While I like the romantic aspect of this series I like to time travel sci-fi aspect more. |
| Life Is Short But Intense. |
| I guess this proves that Endless Eight could have worked better if adapted in just three episodes. |
| Yet these hands will never hold anything. Thus I pray, Unlimited Waifu Works!  |
Please for the love of god...the next time you do such a long comment, format it. It's incredibly difficult to read. Anyway, thanks for the compliments! After getting through all of it...I think the problem lies more so with you rather than the show itself. You seem to have several issues that make you have the stance that you have right now. In your mind you're only allowing the show to be about a single factor that personally appeals to you. While it's okay to want more of that, you appear to vehemently denounce anything that does fit into that formula. Not only that you also seem to actively diminish episodes that are not centred around your romantic couple, completely ignoring all the things it does for several characters and their dynamics. Let's take some examples. Koga. According to you she's the devil incarnate who endangers your Mai and who clearly does not appeal to you and that's fine. A character does not have to appeal to every single viewer. But despite that you make her out to be someone that somehow completely ruins any coherent structure the story had thus far...what? I mean I get it, you're very attached to your ship but the way you're describing Koga and the reason why the author wrote her into the story is just flat out dismissing several things. Koga as a character much like Mai or Sakuta or Kaede represents a case of youth going down the hard road of adolescence. She's incredibly insecure of how others view her which is why she is desperate to change, desperate to fit in and desperate to keep up. It's a character some but not all people are supposed to relate to. The urge in the back of your head to be a part of a group, to be socially acceptable, to be up to date in order to take part in the conversation. Some people can seriously relate to that. And this also applies to when she falls for Sakuta. To you it's an attempt to somehow create waifu wars and the author running out of ideas on how to move along. To me and majority of other people it's another side of what her character is and to what people can relate to. Falling for someone who clearly does not reciprocates those feelings. And all the while you're lying to yourself that you are not in love and just friends you end up falling more & more. That's why the days loop. She tells herself that she's not in love but in reality she is lying to herself, is not happy with the outcome and so repeats these days. So when Sakuta literally forces her to be honest to him & herself he makes Koga who is caught up in a personal dilemma with her own feelings do a step forward. This moments helps her to be herself, someone she can confidently say is Koga Tomoe. And since we're at it, why did Sakuta help her out? She reminded him of his sister & his past who he holds incredible amount of regret for. He wishes to have been able to change the past and Koga's case is a major step on his path of self redemption. He knows this, Mai knows this. Both are in agreement with this and endure it. I don't get how people can get so furious about this when even the characters involved are calm enough to properly assess the situation and see why their significant other does the things he/she does. It was not in order to buy into some romantic rival subplot or anything of the sorts, especially since we knew right out of the gate that if anything developed it would be entirely one sided and would not end up leading to anywhere but a flat out rejection. Mai acknowledges this right away by saying that she's worried about Koga because if pretends turns into serious for her then she will be hurt no matter what. She was not worried about Sakuta loving anyone but her, not even for a second. Since I don't want to write a whole essay, I'll sum it up with this... You'd really do yourself a favour by rewatching the show, taking off the shipping goggles and take what the show does for something else than a romance centred game of chess cause it's anything but that. We got an interesting insight on another character's personal dilemma on her road to adolescence and saw her maturing from this whole experience. We saw Sakuta, his regret for the past, his wish to change, his unwavering loyalty to Mai who in return has unwavering trust for him. We saw a relatable case of someone just that insecure about him/herself that he/she tried everything just to be part of something. And this is not even naming everything. So to me and I think the majority of people watching this show, this arc has not been a detour of the romantic quest of Sakuta x Mai but a pleasant experience from which we gained another character & plenty of development as well as emotional attachment. Try watching it with an open mind and several if not all of your issues should resolve in one way or another. |
