Well, i think it's the best episode this far because Sumi-chan showed up. She looks so fucking cute and i was yelling all the way up. Like, damn, i can't bear when Sumi-chan is smiling or saying something. Her voice is cute and small eventhough she's being dubbed by Megumi the explotion girl.
I wonder what will happen in finale episode.

I f*cking fell in love with Sumi-chan! Her cuteness is in another level. Also, I loved the voice acting of Rui Tahanashi, best fit for the character.

Now that mami-chan knows about the rental stuff this is getting really spicy ! All the homies need more sumi and a season 2!

This show entertain me too much, Kazuya is clumsy but in a way that doesn't bother but amuse. The final scene with Mami is sensational, fire and flames are expected now she has discovered the truth.

Ugh, Mami's back and she's being a bitch as usual. Only that scummy girl would see a guy two-timing as an improvement. Man, I really hate her.

Sumi-chan is now officially on my waifu list and Mizuhara has got some serious competition for waifu of the anime! Sumi is so damn cute and sweet, shy thing could really work for her in the Rental Girlfriend business!

This gotta be Takahashi Rie's easiest gig ever.

Actually, probably just one. The next ep would be Ruka + Chizuru/Mami most likely. Maybe in (possible?) sequel then?

Actually, she talked more in this documentary than in whole the anime :D

It's unfortunate we met Sumi-chan only 2 episodes from the end of the season. I would've been great seeing more of her and her development as a rental girlfriend.

Also, Mami-chan discovering Mizuhara and Sumi was a nice twist.

Sumi-chan is just adorable.

You know... as much as I hate Mami, I have to admit, the series is at its best whenever Mami is around to fuck shit up.

What I like about this show, every time a new girl appears, it's always better than the previous girl, like this Sumi Chan
and the focus of this show is more on girls than the mc

And I like every Mami Chan feels low, because she always underestimates Kazuya

Still disliking the MC with 1 episode left. He and the ex deserve each other. She is a control monster and he has no ability to resist. He won't cut the strings with her and she knows it. Now she has leverage over him because he allows it. I am not too concerned about the characters at this point in the series. I do hope that Chizuru comes out in good shape since she has life goals (acting) and effort to achieve them (getting a job as a rental). Everyone else is just emotional flotsam on the sea of life.

Heh Sumi is extremely shy but she is clearly a good girl :3 Just notice how she kinda understood the mood when Kazuya was tense around Mami :P

Uh oh... Mami-chan is back and now she knows the secret! That doesn't look good lol

Sumi was cute. her introversion was truly something else. Although Sumi's appearance was overshadowed by something else.

So it took 11 episode's for someone to Google Chizuru's name. Really... Now Mami has the ball.

BEST GIRL SAKURASAWA SUMI IS FINALLY HERE, ABOUT DAMN TIME! Sad that she only has 2 episodes of screentime, but I'm not the only one to hope there's a Season 2 to follow up...?

The shy, cute and introverted girl that Sumi is, Kazuya has a hard time trying to dissect her behaviour, even at the behest request of Chizuru to 'fix' her up and behave like she's on the "rental girlfriend" job through step-by-step practice.

LO AND BEHOLD, the terrorizing Mami has to butt in and show off her "closeness" to Kazuya, to which I've gotta commend Sumi for facing her head-on with her valiantness. The truth of the matter is that she found out that like Chizuru, Sumi is another rental girlfriend, like "Girl, why can't you have done any research earlier on? Are you plain stupid, or just dumb and dumber?"

Chizuru's morning date...turns out to be a direct confrontation with Mami. Can't hold my breath for whatever's gonna come for the finale episode...

I don't know which side to cheer on for.
I'm confused if I feel right about be on the side for Sumi.
Rental Girlfriend, if looking from the bright side, it seems like it is some kind of counseling and tour service. But I can't help but to think it is a shady job before thinking of any goodness in this kind of practice. No, I'm just still confused of what this "Rental Girlfriend" actually is.

Mami, who just have "ruin everything" written all over her face seems like a thug, is just a bad phenomenon. I can't bare to see Kazuya like this, and i have the impression now that he is totally scared of her.

I feel like cheering for no one at this point.

I think the username she used for the call (Maya) can be used as either male on female name. Maybe...?

While there is a lot of rental services in Japan (sister, boyfriend, mother, father, daughter...yeah, I know...and moher is the most popular by far, LMAO), I do think the app Chizuru is serving under is for hetero boys, Mami probably made a fake male account...

Jesus, this was more entertaining to watch than the very show itself...by a long margin, actually.

So Sumi has finally shown up, so happy to see her. If only we could have seen more of her, her personality seems very sweet. Im happy for Mizuhara, and I actually hope to see her move on from being a rental girlfriend, now this is where Kazuya really needs to learn to face reality. It's too bad Mami is about to find out this way, so goddamn sneaky she had absolutely no right.

Just a reminder. CHIZURU is what KAZUYA has choosen. Not accepting the truth is what leads to doom.
Like MAMI if you want, but why hate CHIZURU, SUMI or anybody else. "A Petty Happiness obtained by hating others." Only guilt remains in the end.
------------
CHIZURU : I believe that what you need is Confidence.
KAZUYA : I had no idea i was going on a date with a pretty girl like this! She's not talking at all, though.

YOSHIAKI : Do CHIZURU-san. You have my permission.
KAZUYA : I never needed it, but thanks.

There's nothing wrong with liking characters like MAMI, REM or any other Anime characters. But most fans like them only because they "PITY" these heartbroken characters. These fans like someone, only because they hate other. That's not their love for the character.

Well, I could have cited the existence of friendly dates if the service itself hadn't been marketed as fake girlfriend from the very beginning.

The animation in this anime has been really great so far. I particularly like the opening.
But yeah, about this week's episode, I think sumi chan is so freaking cute, really really liked her. We didn't see much of that other girl in this episode(don't remember her name, the one who checks her heartbeat).
Yeahh, mami found out about them being rentals. This is pretty fucked up, not gonna lie. This could be a big turning point in this series, anything could happen afaik.
Next episode will be the last, oh god, time really does fly. I expect a season 2 tho, looking forward to the next episode in the meantime.

Why did Chizuru have to stop, and also why Mami appeared at the last moment.

Not a fan of releasing a new "important" character an episode from the end when the last episode doesn't even seem like it will have her that much involved. She was cute though. The show's been pretty simplistic and cringe, but I've actually liked it so far. Let's see how it ends!

Sumi has potential, though in a different way. She is a good listener.
