| Honestly, until last week I liked all of the girls. But man, did they make me absolutely hate Ichika in only 2 episodes XD. |

-Miku_Meister- said: Finally Yotsuba got some screentime.I am happy she got most screen time in this episode as I felt she had the least screen time. However, Ichika is dropping fast like a rocket.I thought maybe she will regret what she has done in the previous episode but no sign of that. Nothing worse than getting in Miku's way because she does not want Miku and Fu-Kun know the truth.   To be honest, I was acutally happy when I saw Nino with a birthday present and comfronted Ichika about the spring vacation scene. I also like Nino does turn up the temperature and already is aware of other girls (Miku) has a crush on Fu-kun. I didnt expect Nino to do a pout lol   Miku: In her work uniform, is DAMN cute. I love how she is always trying her best. I don't mind tasting her burnt croissant.  I can't wait when Miku finds out about Ichika's disguise and she hasn't seen the yandere side of Miku. BEHOLD!!! Guess Nino will be experiencing Miku's Yandere form ^_^  The ending was funny but at the same time I think it is a fair choice since one of the sisters would be left out and that would be unfair. Well I dont mind if gets left out *shrugs* The sister picture LMAO, no1 is acutally smiling haha  Current ranking: 1. Miku 2.Nino 3.Itsuki 4. Yotsuba 5. Raiha 6.-------- Woah!! Its not like Ichika is Bad . Haven't you seen how caring she has been to her sisters all these time. Its just that after speaking with Yotsuba she has come to make a decision. To be honest she is a very good sister . You shouldnt speak ill of someone without understanding them. For example i think Its not a good idea to give Yotsuba more screen time when all the girls are already in love with Futaro. But i tried my best to understand cuz Yotsuba didnt have much screentime. But after thinking and thinking i came to a conclusion that It would be more agreeable if Miku, Nino or Ichika wins over Futaro. Dont know about Itsuki though cuz theres some sort of story for her too. |

Please Nino , Ichika and Miku love Futaro so it is not bad if they try to have him for themselves. I Think it is just cruel to call Ichika worst girl just for wanting to spend time with Futaro. Please stop being Biased. |

Dont know about Itsuki though cuz theres some sort of story for her too. Dude what you said makes it seem like you hate Yotsuba lmao. Like let her do her have a episode after all the other girls have had their fair share. It’s like me saying: Nino was being supper annoying this episode because she said to fuutarou he doesn’t get a say in the group he wants to be in and to be grateful but I understand cuz she’s a tsundere and it’s her personality. It sounds really passive aggressive. Anyways the whole point for yotsuba getting screen time is to HAVE development like Nino had as well as miku and Ichika. Itsuki even had some sort of development, it isn’t first come first serve, and just because a girl loves fuutarou doesn’t mean he has to love them back. There might be a reason why even though the girls have loved him for a while. Obviously fuutarou is becoming more and more aware of feelings such as love, but one can argue that yotsuba was the first girl to make fuutarou laugh like he did in the latest episode, unlike the others which gave him stress. It goes both ways, you need to understand every characters feelings like the MC, not just the girls. |
| It felt a little off seeing parts which do not belong in this arc (at least not in the source material) but it's still a solid episode. The way Ichika acts though really grinds my gear. |

Just because she's been a good sister for X-amount of time doesn't mean she's entitled to do whatever she wants. Lying about your own sisters and using them as a means to an end. You sure ruining lifelong bonds built on trust, devotion and love with your own flesh and blood worth it? There's no excuse for something so malicious and appalling. |

| Yotsuba and Ichika really are the best. One is the purest of the quints and the other is the most underhanded. I really don't mind what Ichicka is doing. It only makes me like her more. |
| Aww... Yotsuba got what she wants. Ngl, she may be the simpleton outta the bunch, but that's what makes her cute. Everyone's trying their hardest to be with Uesugi. Glad, Uesugi finally has some friends. |
 |
| Yotsuba fans eating this episode, and she’s my 2nd favorite (with Ichika and Miku tied for 1st) so it was pretty nice, and also nice to hear that they went back to adapt this part, really appreciate that. Ichika is still making underhanded plays, using that hidden Monopoly money stash lol, I can’t say I fully approve but I still respect it as I said in the last episode. Sisters War is the next arc huh, about to be bigger than Infinity War lol |

There's no excuse for something so malicious and appalling. BTW I Think You are some what correct but it is a bit too exaggerated. I dont think what Ichiika did was Something you could call malicious or appalling. And I am not white knighting Ichika at all. I AGREE that the way she was portrayed in this episode was a bit different than what she was a couple episodes before. I know she was a bit selfish about the whole present giving thing. But everyone bought presents for Futaro.I like all the girls especially Nino , Miku and Ichika . But she NEVER lied about her sisters at all. All the sisters wanted to be in Futaro's team alone too.Both Ichika and Miku asked yotsuba the same thing .And calling her Using Bad names are really Rude . Even if you dont like her do you think the other sisters would like it when one of their sisters is called using Hurting Names.It would be Nice if people could stop using these kind of words When we are talking about anime. fun Fact: As Dense as Futaro is He would like Ichika's gift the most .Cuz he likes Money. |

Sudden change usually ruin our past experience of the anime. And as dense As Futaro is his recation would usually be so funny . Thats the reason Nino acts like that towards Futaro. And do you honestly think Fuutarou understands the feelings of the girls :D. |

| Somehow I started this season rooting for Nino and randomly ended up rooting for Yotsuba after the swing scene... |

And do you honestly think Fuutarou understands the feelings of the girls :D. What I’ll say is this: the reason she doesn’t get enough screen time until now is to focus on every girls development. This just makes fans change their “best girl” every few episodes as we have seen with Nino. Yotsuba getting a bit of screen time now just foreshadows her eventual development she’ll get, like the other girls. It’s fair for her to get it now, since all 5 girls are main characters. What this anime does well in is that, even though it’s a harem, the author explores each girls feelings and characteristics thoroughly. This doesn’t have to be romance wise, their character could develop for themselves, such as miku developing her own self esteem problem and finding a solution to it. Yotsuba finally starts getting a bit of a focus, and later on (not this season and possible next season) itsuki will get hers. It’s fair game, that’s all there is to it. It is a HAREM after all. |
| What wanted Yotsuba is just to spend some time with Uesugi, that's really cute. |
 |
| I'll admit I was screaming "THIS is why Yotsuba is Best Girl!!!" during the swing scene; there has been so much skipped or rushed over this season, but it almost made it up during those precious few minutes. |
| "Genki is Life, Genki is Love" |
| Good Yotsuba episode but Nino still best. |

Dont know about Itsuki though cuz theres some sort of story for her too. In my opinion, Ichika is the least fav in the series but compared to other anime series then maybe not as bad. She was caring in season 1 but somehow she played dirty by being in Miku disguise and said "I support you and Ichika" . If she said "Ichika likes you" then I would not be as mad (tiny bit still). I would of maybe forgiven her a bit but as you can see from the latest episode "I can't regret on what I did" and she is telling off other sisters to not get a present so that she can only give it to Fu-Kun. Secondly, Miku went out the class to find Fu-Kun and Ichika stopped them from talking as she has been keeping a eye on Miku. This means it will be much harder for Miku to have time alone with Fu-Kun. She is digging herself deeper. At least the other girls are playing fair and Nino said it infront of everyone instead of using sneaky tactics to win Fu-Kun over. As a anime watcher, I am still waiting for Miku to find out Ichika's secret. I had the moment of thought when Fu-Kun was about to tell her of the Ichika disguise. DAMN, Ichika got in the way. *Miku Pout* . |
 "Don't give up after failing just twice. We'll be able to do it next time. Failure is the stepping stone to success." |
So so episode, not one of the best ones. Nino deserves to win, she's the only one standing up and taking the risks without hesitation (Miku) or subterfuge (Ichika). My rankings have changed over time, but this is how I feel at the moment. I still put Yotsuba dead last, I just don't see any chemistry there. Then Itsuki. Those two haven't had any sparks with Fu-kun this season. |
 |
| This probably was the worst episode so far. I am glad they brought back yotsuba's date but there was no need to cut it in the first place, furthermore the episode rushed a lot of chapters and characters to the point they feel like meaningless filler. tzy_19 said: exactly! They keep cutting very important parts even yotsuba's date was rushed. What a disappointmentAre they completely trying to remove the dad from the anime? Like I didn't feel that part with the tutor change and Fuutarou declaring he would get top 10 had to be changed. But kinda takes away from the scene to be honest. The whole getting 3rd in the nation was supposed to be really built up and a big deal, but it felt kinda pointless when barely a couple minutes was put into it. AND HOW DID THEY MISS THE ALMIGHTY "Fuutarou only got 3rd place because he literally fell asleep for the last few questions on the last exam" I also feel that the pacing in general has been REALLY FAST lately. Like the cuts from scene to scene are almost instantaneous, they barely give any pauses to digest, and are really trying to speedrun the story |

| Yotsuba best girl, if you don't agree, then you're wrong. |
| Ichika really went full force with her schemes. It's fun to watch even though I don't agree with the way she does it, it takes away some of the boredom I felt this show's season 2. I hope she'll do even more worse and entertaining schemes in the next episodes. |

DAMN, Ichika got in the way. *Miku Pout* . I was was shocked when Ichika said I am rooting for you . Yes i agree that it is bad. But as soon as she told that her look was clearly saying that she was nervous . But I know that is not an excuse but she was clearly not herself when she said that. The Look on her face was the authors way of hinting the emotion of the said character. And the reason she disguised is to escape from classmates . You will understand when you rewatch that scene. And the change in Ichika was due to the conversation she had with Yotsuba on the roof of the Hot spring inn. I know that the way she approached is a bit childish compared to her usual self. But Dont you think when it comes to love everyone gets like this. For example Nino got into the Hot spring with a boy which she would never do normally. Miku is so cute when she is flustered in front of futaro. Lets just not Hate characters in just one episode. Ichika was trying to give Futaro to the other girls but after the conversation with Yotsuba she chose to Fight for him which land this is the reason she says "I cant regret what i did". But if there is something wrong it is when shs said i am rooting for you disguised as Miku. If there is any one who you would blame blame the author or the production crew not Ichika.:D Good Night!! Bye-Bye!! |

| Wow Yotsuba can be real cute too. I loved how she smiled after watching Fuutarou having fun in the park :P I think this has more importance than what was shown. Nino vs Ichika, that's a rivalry I'm really curious to see the outcome xD But then... I remember Ichika's schemes lol |
THANKS SENPIEX  |

Bye-Bye!! I agree, most miku and ichika fans were shocked from the Ichika in Miku disguse confession. I understand where you are coming from when you mentioned "she was clearly not herself when she said that" .I would of agreed with you but since Ichika mentioned in ep10 " I have no regrets". This suggests, she shows no remorse and what she done is what she believes is right. Trust me, when I rewatche the scene a few times, I had the WTF reaction lol . Seen Miku in yandere form is hot but same time scary. Ichika would of gotten away by just easily saying "Ichika likes you" in Miku disguise and she didnt. She is already aware and clearly awake to say more than just liking Fu-Kun. Lets not forget Ichika deliberately did not stop her father from obstructing Nino's meet with Fu-Kun. Again, Ichika had it planned. If Ichika felt bad then I would think she would of told Fu-Kun/Miku about it and Nino had to comfront her to get the reason why she did not stop their father from going to the place which Nino and Fu-Kun suppose to meet. Being a Miku Fan does not mean there arent flaws. For example, I do wish Miku would not be shy and just act Nino at times to express her feelings. I understand, you are a Ichika fan and you are doing your best to defend her. The author decides which character gets personality change and Ichika is chosen. If it was Miku, I would feel bad and let down. I would critize her personality change if thats the case for Miku with vice versa disguising as Ichika. One episode is enough to make a chracter dislikable. There are a few anime at least in which a character can become unlikeable from one episode. I could name these but rather not as it may be a spoiler. I could not stop laughing when you mentioned blame the author or productiion crew. Not in a bad way but without the author's intentions then the series wont exist in first place. The author decided which character gets the treatment then fans can only agree/disagree with the characters devlopment. I will still say Ichika used to be likable but not as much. I hope you have a good night and sweet dreams. |
| "Don't give up after failing just twice. We'll be able to do it next time. Failure is the stepping stone to success." |
| Ichika is still continuing her streak of playing dirty cards. As much as I dislike her right now, I think the show has gotten surprisingly more interesting because of her. I can't help but feel like there is a secret war being held between Ichika and everyone. She is trying to secretly sabotage all her sister's chances of being with Fuutarou and Nino is the only one that notices. So, that would mean that Nino is Ichika's biggest threat currently and she is definitely going to do something about it. Anyways, the episode was pretty entertaining. |

| Only 2 episodes left and we have 50+ chapters Maybe we hope for season 3? |
