THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Hinata's personality is a bit childish but funny to watch. We got more Amatsuyu dealing with the aftermath of the previous episode. Out of the main cast, I still find Sakura's role to be the most entertaining because of her personality. I almost feel bad for Joro now since his life got much more busier with these girls he has to help with. Sumireko is the girl to keep an eye on. She's up to something. ![]() |
This is really turning out to be one of my favorite romcom stories in a long time, the way the gag's are executed and how the scenes transition from character A to character B is amazing, I have never watched an anime that keeps doing the same lines but with different characters and still have it be funny and intriguing at the same time, the only enigma here is our MC, its like taking different heroine routes and seeing how they react in that same scenario. For a moment there I thought Sun-chan was gay but was also half expecting his crush to be Pansy. Also now Pansy.. WTF is goin on with her? how does she know so much and she literally pin pointed when things would spice up, and now called all of them in one room, it really looks like she's playing all of them. Anyways another great ep! had a lot of laughs with this one as well! better than ep 1! keep.it.up!!!! That OP and ED are beautiful! and Pansy without glasses in that ED is bae af! I knew she'd be hotter and cuter than the other 2! get your shit together Joro and just hit it up with your stalker! Still too early to say it but this series will most likely be my AOTS! ![]() |
Shit is getting serious lol And having seen some spoilers from LN I can't really laugh about it... Hopefully it's not as fucked up as I heard. ![]() |
Does this show has a patent on retardness ? It seems they trying to do some "drama" stuff, but all i can see is comedy. But then again, im not a MGTOW member so i cant really relate to the mc. ![]() |
Ok, so I like this anime in the aspect that 'what if all characters have shit personality', but I don't think the relationship graph need to be this complicated. ![]() |
Haha this show is getting interesting. Definitely Gamers! vibes, but with extra spice. The delicious chaos is brewing >:3 Joro totally taking the place of the typically unfortunate best friend character, and Sun-chan the oblivious MC in typical romcom style... I disagree with Joro, i actually like Pansy. Girls with a bit of bite are much more my taste. Cosmos is really pretty and fun when not lovesick, and Himawari can be pretty cute would def wanna be their friends, but Pansy is way more my speed... especially if she's that good of a schemer heh. I could do without the stalking, but not something i couldn't manipulate her out of doing. Having an intriguing girl like her would make life a lot more fun and interesting, and it would be a joy to continuously learn more about a nuanced girl like her. Plus she's a top-class troll.

Lol a mysterious stalker on top of double confessions for his best friend Joro really has quite the bad luck. Amusing how Aoi's excitable nature almost ended up sinking the plan. The leadup to Cosmo's plan sure was a nice touch. If anything the plans so far have just barely worked. Still loving the relationship between Sumireko and Joro though. Looks like Sumireko's pretty much in control here. Man the relationships between Joro and his friends sure are rather unexpectedly complex ones. The revelation of Sun chan's object of affections sure ended up changing the dynamic of the group quite a bit. To think that he ended up asking both Cosmo's and Aoi to help him though. Looks like Joro is walking on quite the tightrope as he tries to balance his friendships with his relationship with Sumireko. One that's only getting harder as the next surprise reveals itself. An entertaining ep that combined Sumireko's cunning and the developing relationship between her and Joro with the increasingly precarious balance between him and his friends. ![]() Signature removed.

This show is treading a fine line between being overly dramatic and finding the humour in this farcical romantic labyrinth (not gonna lie, I almost expected Sun to confess to Joro for a moment, what with the return of "the bench" and all), but after this episode I'm no longer entirely sure which side it wants to be going for. It seems to want to play both angles, but in doing so I feel like it's only going to trip itself up. At this point, as funny as Joro finding himself stuck in the middle of all of this nonsense is, I can only feel sorry for the guy because of how he's being treated (i.e. exploited) by everyone around him. He was trying to help the two girls, and all he gets for it is harshly berated because of Sun's misunderstanding of Joro's words. And then Sun tries to be kind and offer to help Joro out, when he's a large part of the cause of Joro's issues in this episode. Also, I get supporting the person you love and all, but I really don't see how it makes any logical sense that Cosmos and Himawari would give up so easily and try and support Sun's efforts to get with Pansy; they obviously didn't love him all that much if they can give up on him so easily. And really, how is this episode's ending a cliffhanger? I get that Pansy has obviously been stirring the pot, but her and Joro are just talking, so what's the issue? ![]() Modified by Atavistic, Oct 9, 2019 11:05 AM |
This... this is one complicated love polygon for just two episodes lol ![]() |
Lmao what a predicament Joro's in and freaking bitches damn. I really want to see Cosmos and Himawari burnt. Also damn Sumireko looks gorgeous without her glassess. Anyway I'm starting to like this series, this was much better than the first episode. ![]() Modified by MegamiRem, Oct 9, 2019 11:26 PM |
Enjoy it with the sub-heroines until it lasts, Everyone. Also, it will be interesting if there is a character poll after episode 3 (or 4, if the pacing is changed) and Sumeriko doesn't win by a complete landslide. ![]() Stay Home and Wash Your Hands.

Is it just me or is the story advancing faster than in the manga? I don't remember much about the beggining because it's been a long time since I started reading the manga Mentar said: Can they make the OP any more spoilerish than this? ^_^; I mean, okay, we all know what huge glasses plus braids means, but still... What do you mean spoilers? It didn't spoil almost anything as far as I know, I've only read the manga though ![]() Modified by KorhalChild, Oct 9, 2019 11:19 AM |
This episode was very funny. The bench returning was the best part for me and because of this episode am gonna read the manga ![]() |

She'd already murder them by now if we already have a poll. The other heroines aint got shit on her, this is like Kirisu against the other heorines in bokuben but worst since there is literally no other interesting character besides her. The other 2 are too.. cliche in a romcom, I could be wrong about the other 2 being cliche tho, I don't know about Sakura but Joro's childhood friend seems fishy, like she's doing everything on purpose just to get someone on her side in her conquest to get Sun-chan, like she's manipulating the MC by all being all touchy, girls no matter how air headed they are in anime rarely get THAT touchy unless they're after something, and that she wants to remain to look cute, she's like a semi Kushida from Youkoso Jitsuryoku, a fake air head. ![]() |
Pretty bored by the episode. It was obvious that Sun-chan liked Pansy, and I didn't like Cosmos and Himawari again. The main interesting aspect of this show so far is Joro and how he actually loves nobody compared to everyone else, and Pansy is nice. But other than those two, I'm just not into it as much as the others. ![]() |
That was more dramatic than I expected. Still pretty funny at some bits. I don't know why but I found Cosmos' samurai speech when nervous funny as pheck. Don't know why. Objectively it's not that funny. Hinata on the other hand is a total waste of space. ![]() "Perhaps there is a universal, absolute truth. Perhaps it justifies every question.

IIRC Sumeriko got close to 90% votes in a poll in 2ch (unofficial, but it had a lot of vote counts). But that was on the LN and it was a pretty early poll. However, I think the other heroines never made any grounds since then. Sensei (60.5%, being the latest and the most) didn't get more than 90% of the votes in any polls (official or unofficial, much like the recent Gotoubun fave scene/ch poll where Miku had almost half the votes (49.3%) in her bag). Fumino and Uruka have their very own solid fanbases. And the four heroines have almost 40% of the votes combined. And while I am not a big fan of Fumino, she is not a bad person by any means. None of the heroines in bokuben is a bad person actually. And my over reaction (which I am aware of) to Fumino is because of bitter experience from her fanbase in reddit and 2ch. But this is a complete different story. ![]() Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |

I completely and totally agree with you. I actually found it surprising how I literally laughed out loud with the same exact shit happening (bench, confession, etc.) and the jokes and gags that are normally associated with romcoms are executed so well in this that it keeps me entertained. All in all, super interesting show and I can't wait to see how much more entangling confusion plays out. ![]() |

I already see them as bitchy after this ep, they didn't even give Joro the benefit of the doubt after he literally kept on helping both of them, his reasons for that aside how they treated him was shit, especially Sakura with her "You're useless to me now" thats a bitch line right there. Then again this is comedy and maybe they're just acting like that to make the scenes more funny since it seems like this series goes with what one character say and the other characters also says it but in a different way, just that looking at it in a slightly serious way, Joro doesn't have good friends lol.

And my over reaction (which I am aware of) to Fumino is because of bitter experience from her fanbase in reddit and 2ch. But this is a complete different story. I can relate with that, I actually had a bad experience myself with a fellow Fumino fan (3x iirc), while the other fanbases do have their bad sides, the Fumino fanbase are quite.. more toxic than the others from my experience, they're a lot more obnoxious than most of the others. ![]() |
Honestly the first half of the first episode I thought I was gunna hate this show... But the last half of the first episode made me think it wouldn't be so bad. And this episode. Lmfaaoo. I love the switch in the MC's character, he's definitely the type of MC I like. The way he thinks about the two girls who like Sun-chan make me laugh my ass off. I mean they are acting nervous cause they're in love with him but lmfao seeing it all from the MC's perspective makes this hilarious. Also I love Sumireko she's such a good character lmfao. LMFAAOO THE BENCH SCENE WITH SUN AND MC HE'S GOT MAJOR BENCH PTSD. HE'S IN LOVE WITH SUMIREKO WHY IS IT ALWAYS THE BASEBALL GAME LMFAAOO He should have told him Sumireko confessed to him and thats why he can't help him. I'm pleasantly surprised with how this episode played out, didn't think I'd like this show too much but now I have high hopes for it :> EDIT: The chicks who like Sun-chan were fuckin annoying and rude as hell to the MC though, he could have explained it better that he didn't know his feelings until way later. I can't believe his own childhood friend acted like that to him. ![]() Modified by BTDarklings, Oct 9, 2019 12:51 PM |
Those girls are awful. I agree with you, Joro. Bench-kun really made me think Sun-chan was going to confess to Joro lmao. I wasn't sure in the last episode but this episode did the job. Pansy best girl... and she is fucking gorgeous! By the way, how the hell does she hide those big boobs she shows in the ED? xD ![]() |
DUUUUUDE ME TOOO I WAS LIKE SHITS TURNING YAOI LMFAAOO ![]() |
At this point I'm not sure if Bench-kun or Sumireko "Pansy" Sanshokuin is best girl, so I guess I have to watch more next week to be sure. :-P ![]() Sorry, due to licensing limitations, this message is unavailable in your region.

Yeah but the way they handled it was too much, I know teens tends to have emotional outbursts here and there and this is exactly the case with it, just dialed up a lil more, at the very least I'm looking at it from character to character perspective, Joro may be a scheming teen but he was about to snap at Pansy when she was bad mouthing the 2 girls and this was after he got brutally told off by the 2 without even listening to what he had to say, and we also see he does quite treasure friendship, he had quite the giddy expression and his mood got better when they kept telling him that he and Sun-chan are best friends. While the other 2 are somewhat indebt to Joro for even helping them both out and to be fair it was working, they're able to interact and go out with Sun-chan... but alas after all that they couldn't even give him the benefit of the doubt, didn't even listen to what he had to say and while he was trying to clear his name with his childhood friend, she ended up not believing a single word he said and just took Sun-chan's word for it, and Jesus christ that was his childhood friend too, all that friendship since childhood went poof lol, I simply see characters like that as a bitch, bitch can also stand for someone who's unpleasant and just downright being difficult, which both of them has displayed this ep. ![]() |

If true, shit is going to shit for sure ![]() |
Well if it feels rushed for some, it's because it literally rushed an entire manga arc over a single episode, so there's that. I'm looking forward to watching stuff the manga didn't adapt yet, but still, this felt terribly rushed even for an anime-only watcher tbh. It had some BL vibes for sure with the whole Sun affair (intentional) but then again I think looking past that it shows how Joro actually values friendship and is a better person than at first glance (well, actually second glance, let's give him a third one). Also how he was about to snap at Sumireko when she was badmouthing the girls, sad to see that cut off by that baka trio appearing there, just like Pansy wanted, surely Pros of the anime so far: Beautiful animation and the fucking bench has a glorious theme song (which is an Imperial March rip-off) so at least there's that. Also, Pansy's VA is hgggnnnnnn ![]() |
