| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Swim girl Uraka is here! Definitely had some awkward moments this episode. It seems they're starting to bring out some more fan service in this show now too. Felt like this episode had a more energy than the previous one mostly thanks to Uraka's presence. The scenes in the darkness had some awkward moments. All that blushing lul |
 |
| So chapter 3 and 5 got skipped, huh? Well, other than that, it's a pretty well-paced episode. Next episode probably won't skip anything since the preview shows stuff from chapter 8-10. |
 |
| And here she is, Miku the best girl. |
 |
| Best girl Uruka is finally here. Looks and personality are ultimate win. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Uruka. <3 I love how innocent her love for Nariyuki is. Fumino is my favorite but Uruka is right behind her. I loved that scene with Fumino's spirit coming out of her. xD |
 |
| Make sure to test your sugar content from here onwards anime-onlies because the Sweetest Girl in the Bokuben Universe, the Caramel Beauty, and Our Resident Mermaid Takemoto Uruka-chan has graced the anime! To think that there was a time when I thought she will be just there to add numbers to the harem count! |

| Well played Takemoto, well played... |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
| I still like Rizu/Ogata the most. I think her character design and personality are endearing (coconut haircut, lol!) I don't like the protagonist as much as the one in Quintessential Quintuplets and I don't know why. The plot of both shows share some similarities, but I think Fuutaro had much better charisma. I still like this show overall! |
 |
| They did Fumino dirty by skipping CH 5. Ch3 was tons of fun too.. oh well, I would have preferred them skipping CH6 and doing 3 instead but I guess they wanted to focus more on the chapters having Uruka on it. |
  |
| The 2nd episode was really nice as we get the character introduction of Uruka Takemoto a scatterbrained girl when it comes to studying but excels at sports. The character development was really strong this episode, as we see Ogata grow even closer to Nariyuki. The part where Nariyuki goes to Ogata's house to help with her short essay was a nice touch, especially during the blackout part it was cute seeing Ogata cling to Nariyuki because of her uneasiness with the dark, Uruka trying to play along as well was really funny as well. The teacher who said Ogata's view was banal on her essay is an interesting character, hope we get more screentime of her. Also I loved the part where Nariiyuki helped Uruka memorise for her vocabulary test by incorporating her swimming into, a very effective way to teach. Overall a great episode with good character development, can't wait for Episode 3! Mod edit: Removed advertising. |

| Get ready gentleman for SS Uruka will start sailing today. Weather forecast show that there will be a great storm waiting ahead so only those who are brave may come aboard. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| Okay. What is with anime and characters that can't swim? What is this trope? Is this a Japanese thing? It's like not knowing how to tie your shoe laces or ride a bike. It's just something you learn as you're growing up. Am I just living in a country with a particularly high 'swimming literacy'? Do you guys actually know people that can't swim in real life? |

I can't swim... I can swim underwater a little, with goggles. Like how Rizu was doing it, but I literally can't swim. |

Mattinator95 said: You do realize there's alot of people that can't swim no matter how old or ride a bike in the world That is a stunning revelation. In my country, almost every student is forced to do swimming lessons for a period of time each year, pretty much throughout their schooling. shanimebib said: Fortunately you are. But it also shows how little you have knowledge about the outside world. Oh, I didn't realise I needed a geographical rundown of global swimming literacy to have knowledge about the outside world. Ridiculous statement, considering I likely have more knowledge of history and geography than you and you don't know my level of education or what I've studied. |

| Another fun episode. This episode was more about Uraka. |

| Ok so Science and math prodigy girl who suck at literature, check. Modern Japanese and literature wiz girl who suck at math and science, check School Swimming ace who suck at studying, check. So what about the maid and the former tutor????? |
| Shame MC is such a ballsless wet paper towel like every other crappy rom com lead. Girls are pretty standard as well, so with such bland cast I doubt there will be anything to find here aside from an occasional eye candy. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| Some quite nice moments, especially with Rizu. Adding Uruka later like this feels a bit as if the author had no plans for her at first, though, and only came up with the idea later. Might have felt less out of place if the headmaster had mentioned the new requirements for her school of choice as well as the reason for suddenly adding her to Nariyuki's roster of students. |
 |
| The childhood friend joins the show. Pretty obvious she won’t be winning... She gave him the wrong present lol |
 |
| Fumino-sensei and Furuhashi fan here! For the anime fans I suggest that you should read the manga! It's not as dragged as you think it would be ! |
| "Who knows." |
landofthekwt said: Uraka arrives the childhood friend who already loves him And she is super energetic, ridiculously kind and an airhead on top of that. She is already labeled with all the stuff that make her destined to be the dead last in harem romcoms 99 out of 100 times. But it doesn't matter to me. She is the sweetest girl of them all and I can't help it but root for her happiness. |

| "Those tan lines are sexy, right?" Completely agree. I mean... DAMN! Last episode I said that I was probably going to like the new girl a lot and I was right, I love Uruka, like, how can you not love her? Definitely the one I liked the most after these two episodes. Rizu offers some serious competition though. |
| Oh nooo tanned girl. Oh no swimming club girl. Oh no she is so sexy and cheerful. Nope nope nope, don't sunk my Ogata Ship, noooo. But for real, Uruka lighten up the story this week. The things with University also demanded for good academic grades even she is an talented athlete is true in real life, at least in my country. |
| So the childhood friend is added to the Harem. Uruka certainly raised the moods of this episode. Atleast she is aware of her feelings right from start. But I am still sailing with Fumino ship. |
 |
| I actually like the match of Uruka and Yuiga, particularly since she has wanted to confess to him since junior high. Usually I'm not too much on the overactive and hyper genki girl, but in this case I'll go with the childhood friend. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| Uruka is the energetic childhood friend who will loose spectacularly. Shame as she's by far the best girl but tropes dictate she can't win. I'm finding the MC super bland and I can already see where this show is heading which is absolutely knowhere. So far it's a copy and paste harem ive seen so many times. Why can't we have something different for a change. |
| It was nice episode. I'm glad Yuiga helped Takemoto learn english with her "natural element", in the water. Pretty clever. |
| That scene after the ending, hahaha, loved that one. Poor Uruka. Uruka is definitely best girl, so cute and clumsy when the MC is around. Her crush on him is too adorable. |
  I will show no mercy for you You had no mercy for me The only thing that I ask Love me mercilessly |
| What did I learn from this ep? Uruka = Best Girl! |
| Uruka is really cute, as for now I like her the most. But the anime itself is a little boring for me, I hope it will pick up the pace |
| well new girl introduced...hmmm well this is getting interesting |
 |
ibraheem234 said: well new girl introduced...hmmm well this is getting interesting Is this your first harem show? Just asking as it's pretty much the same as every other harem rom com. Even after 2 episodes I can pretty much tell how it's going to end. |

You are giving a lot of credit by saying "every other" meaning 1 out of 2. For me, it's probably 9 out of 10. Could be more actually. But wait, you meant all of the other ones? Now that would be a stretch. 2 seasons wasn't enough to predict how TWGOK would end let alone 2 episodes. I guess it is also the reason why it is considered the greatest harem romcom of its generation. |

| The character designs are so good. Especially the way the eyes are done, I am really digging it. Dragon_Slayer_X said: MC is bland Well isn't that shocking. |
 |
Dragon_Slayer_X said: You misunderstood me. Yuiga is quite fum and interesting MC for me in manga. People declaring that the MC is bland after 2 episodes needs to get a reality check. Ah right. He isn't really oozing any personality yet that we haven't already seen in shows like these though, lol. Not in the anime at least. So it's understandable why people would say that. |
