| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The much awaited Sisters' War arc, Part 1. Shopping for necessities before the Kyoto school trip, and immediately the signs point to potential sisters. This war of love is fair game to all of the Nakano sisters to get their long-awaited chance for their confession to reach Fuutarou, that is every girl except the energetic Yotsuba (who's supporting Miku). As expected, Fuutarou going with his "bros before hoes" group of males (which include the handsome Takeda and Maeda), with the Nakano sisters following from behind and conversing their own plans to surprise the tutor. The Torii mountain cllmb 3-2 split group of Ichika, Nino, Itsuki and Yotsuba, Miku, it's first-come, first-serve for whoever can find Fuutarou first, right down to playing the Quintuplet game of lookalikes for deception at best. But of course, this internal conflict causes a rupture and breakdown of negotiations due to Ichika's nonsense, leading to a runaway Miku (that Fuutarou finally acknowledges her crush advances) that both him and Yotsuba has to pursue after her. There's no one single resolution to this mess, and Fuutarou has to face it sooner or later. The consolation is seeing a flustered Itsuki being unequivocally bold, and most importantly, Nino showing and encouraging Miku what it means to compete fair and suare in healthy rivalry. What unlucky luck for a voyeur to strike now of all times during their trip, coupled with this Love is War mess of "I'm the perfect candidate to stand alongside Fuu-kun." How is everything gonna be resolved in next week's final episode? |

| WOW!!!!, I don't even know where to start. I am really starting to like Yotsuba and I feel sorry for her. Other sisters are trying their best to get Fu-Kun while Yotsuba is just supporting Miku/others (Kudos to Yotsuba).That was funny, I didnt expect quadruplet harassment. YURI SCENE!!!! - I don't mind a yuri scene to be honest ^_^. Hopefully there is a OVA for this xD  ICHIKA!, OMG not this again, this was really hard to watch and frustration. I was worried that Ichika would of met Fu-Kun but MIKU should of SLAPPED Ichika for playing dirty. Yet she doesn't feel she is wrong so F*** her. I really wish MIKU can really just slap her and be more bold. Nino: I like Nino and no regrets because she plays fair and square and I was ROOTING for her to slap Ichika. I feel Bitchika is picking on Miku because shes a easy target. Fu - Kun (If you are already aware of Miku has feeling for you then its time for you to take action. Don't pussy out and leave Miku alone). I am sorry, my mind is just over the place with Ichika's action that has trigged me. Itsuki: She is taking action now and finally we get to see she has feelings for Fu-Kun. hmmm, I am not a manga reader but seems like everything is wrapping up. I feel there are some missing scenes of Itsuki as the previous episode, showed she had no much feeling but this episode is like she took a Fu-Kun addiction pill and somehow got attracted to him. POOR MIKU!!!!, Look at what Ichika has caused Miku. I hope she recovers and forget about Ichika. I know Miku can do it!!! Finally, The childhood friend- YOTSUBA, as much as I would like to know who it is.Sadly I have been spoiled a few times and already know its Yotsuba. To be honest, Youtsuba has she is worth for Fu-Kun. I have mentioned before Yotsuba puts other girls first before her and I do feel sorry for him. At this stage, I don't mind Yotsuba pairs with Fu-Kun but in the end I am still a Miku fan and will stay the same. Ending: I have the feeling, the next episode will be the last episode. It feels a lot of scenes has been cut from episode 10 to 11 and I would of wished the studio have made a season 3. Will need to see how it goes, I do hope there is at least OVA after episode 12 because its gonna be a rushed ending. I DO NOT WISH to see this as it will really ruin the overall experience as I have really enjoyed this anime. I hope it does not end in episode 12 and rather see a season 3 which I am happy to wait even if it takes years or OVA enough to cover the remaining chapters. |

| Season 2 turned into a big mess with the way they are rushing, cutting, and rearranging content.... That reveal at the end of the episode felt out of place... Honestly wouldnt mind if we dont get a season 3 at this rate |
 |
| this was a pretty cool episode, going on another ship but not really sure how i feel about this... they really are all fighting over fuutarou now, seems kinda illogical but its whatever... lots of drama in this episode and that reveal at the end was pretty surprising. also, wonder whats going on with that picture person throughout the episode, are they gonna be related to this arc somehow? wondering how they're gonna wrap this up with 1 more episode as well, probably gonna be a cliff hanger or something i guess. also, this scene had some very strong yuri vibes, but they're sisters so... |
| Damn Ichika ruined Miku's confession, I mean Fuutarou already knew she liked him but this still sux. Miku x Nino scene was touching and kinda lewd too. Finally the revealation that it was Yotsuba who was the one Fuutarou met back then. Thou damn this wasn't nearly as impactful as the manga. Lots of Yotsuba content got cut in this season and the overall pacing was fast af too. One more episode left, wonder how they'll wrap it up. KANLen09 said: I dun think we'll get anything conclusive on this season. If they adapt this entire arc in the next episode which they will there'll be 36 chapters left to adapt which is enough for a one cour season so who knows we might get season 3.What unlucky luck for a voyeur to strike now of all times, coupled with this Love is War mess of "I'm better than you to date Fuu-kun".

But the manga though, IMO I think is doable for up to 45 chapters within another 12-episode space given the pacing. Just some things needed to change here and there to fix the adaptation.Katou81 said: That reveal at the end of the episode felt out of place...

| I'm really curious if we get an announcement of a last cour at the end of next episode or they go with an OVA or film for finishing the story. PointlessSmith said: What's with the garbage character direction The mangaka got kind of sloppy in the last fifth of the manga. I think the almost universal acclaim will start to fade now and we'll get some more critical voices as we go along. |

| Itsuki's embarrassment when buying undies was just so cute. Raiha's the perfect ally for the sisters though. The card game on the train really served to bring out the inner fire of the sisters though. But Miku really is giving her all in trying to get Futaro to try her pastry. If anything the fact that all five have feelings for Futaro almost guarantee's that things will get messy. Its unfortunate but in this world there's really no way to guarantee everyone's happiness. Itsuki's attempt to close the distance with Futaro though was hillarious. While the fight to gain Futaro's heart is heating up Itsuki sure ended up throwing a curveball via the revelation about Rena. |

| Damn the arc is not named sister war for nothing, it's getting tenser, especially for Miku and Ichika. I wonder who's that person taking all the pictures, it's weird. And I wonder how Uesugi will react when he'll learn that the girl on the picture is Yotsuba. |
 |
| Apparently this is not going to end this season, they will do something else for sure. Noo, Ichika, what did you do, my poor Miku (╥_╥) Finally it's revealed who was the girl that Futaro met 0.0 |
| Ichika worst girl can't believe I hated someone more than a genki character |
| Nino x Miku scene was hot. Ichika did Miku dirty, I felt really bad for Miku. Yotsuba's the childhood friend but she doesn't want to take advantage of that. She cares about her sisters. |
 |
| They're cutting too much plot! Sorry, but after reading manga, this anime isn't enjoyable, where is meeting with Rena or their Father, where is character development. They want end all history in this season or what?! |
have you got confirmed source that it is getting a s3? Ranking; 1. Miku 2.Nino 3. Yotsuba 4. Itsuki 5. Raiha ----------------- |

| "Don't give up after failing just twice. We'll be able to do it next time. Failure is the stepping stone to success." |
| The plot thickens, the choices become harder.. I honestly think he should just forget about them or fuck them all and move on. This sister rivalry is no good lolz. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| I've only read the manga up until the bell scene, so everything from the past couple episodes is new to me. And damn did some good stuff happen here. Turns out dense mc-kun is not so dense after all. He was aware of miku's feelings and did indeed suspect that that was not her when "she" told him that she was rooting for them. Hell freaking yeah man. However one thing I'm not digging is that it feels like it's moving along too fast. If that's how it is in the manga then I can't complain; but if they are skipping over a lot of stuff then that makes me sad. Still would rather have a lot of major things happening than having just a bunch of random minor things happen like in S1 lol I'm glad things aren't getting dragged out, such as ichika's schemes. Nino knew she was planning stuff all along, and on top of that, her miku disguise was revealed to everyone. And yotsuba is proving more and more why she is worthy; she still is pretty quirky but I don't mind her at all now. Really feel sorry for miku though, especially when done so dirty by your own sister who you looked up to. She just wanted to make some croissants for mc-kun bro, just let her have this! Then she gets put down even further by unstoppable train of best girl nino... Nino is like an unrelenting force, ichika is a scheming sly fox playing dirty, and then there's poor miku who just wants to give fuutaro something she baked. Damn. Now for that ending- I know who wins fuutaro's heart in the end but even at this point I still don't know who "rena" was supposed to be, is it actually yotsuba? Whatever, I'm just glad they didn't try to do the impossible and by some miracle wrap all this up in this season alone. Don't know how much material is left in the manga, but I'm assuming it's enough for another season- or at least a movie or some ovas unfortunately I don't think best girl nino really had a best girl moment in this episode. Sure she caught ichika with her miku disguise and called her out for it, and even asserted dominance in the bedroom with some hot sister on sister action. But I think itsuki takes home the win today with this scene alone  |

| There we have it, finally a few moments I have been waiting for. - The "Rena" on the photo is Yotsuba, the girl who Fuutarou met 6 years ago in Kyoto! - The moment Ichika continued the downward spiral and now has officially dropped to the bottom for me, the way she managed to hurt Miku on top of the Fushimi Inari-taisha is unforgiveable! - Some well deserved Itsuki moments, especially at the Kiyomizu-dera. - The "bed-action" between Miku and Nino. Easily my favorite scene this episode. Great episode and handled really well, every girl managed to stand in the spotlight today, be it for the good or bad reasons. |
 |
| fuck ichika all my homies hate ichika |
| "hes too slow i dont know how hot has his processor but i put some death grips on it and its getting loud its getting lit" |
| Man Itsuki felt super weird this episode, like all of a sudden she is madly in love with uesegi. |
| Of course there had to be another twist and Yotsuba had to be the childhood friend. Although in this episode they really sold me on the idea that it was Itsuki. Speaking of Itsuki... Itsuki's character is really weird harem-wise. Like, being technically the first girl you'd expect her to be in love with Futaro and win but she's just a best friend... even of his family. That said, for God's sake don't make Yotsuba win just because she's the childhood friend. I love how sweet and selfless she is but with all the development we've seen so far it would be unfair for her to win just for that. Ichika why?! I like all of you so why do you have to dig your own grave?! xD. At least it's good to know that Futaro is not that dense and realized Miku's feelings and about the fake Miku. Poor Miku, why do you make her cry? She worked so hard on her croissants :'( Thank God Nino is the complete opposite of Ichika and is there to help her. Man, at this point Miku should win but this is a harem anime and you never know, plus Futaro hasn't shown particular interest in any of them so there's that too. |
SogiitaGunha said: Didn't expect this change for the penultimate episode. FYI, this should have been in the aftermath of this arc, setting up 3 chapters of flashback and 1 chapter of Yotsuba's POV throughout the manga's important bits. And yes, Rena and photo girl are different quints in case you wonder about the how based on the water falling incident of Fuutarou. A VN comes out the same day the last episode airs. Seems totally intentional. The visual novel has nothing to do with the current canon, and is its own separate canon with a new story written by the author. |
| I was pretty underwhelmed by this episode. Whether it be because the pace was too fast or that it tried to focus on too many plotlines, a lot of what happened didn’t feel very impactful. Yotsuba accidentally revealing Miku’s confession, Ichika getting caught impersonating Miku, the camera stalker, the reveal that Yotsuba is the girl in the picture, it was all too messy. We all like to give Futaro shit for being dense, but I have an omniscient perspective and I am confused about what the girls are doing too. |
Classic Nino's way to cheer someone, better be upfront like this than backstabbing  She didn't deserve this. Ever. Mod Edit: Posts must not contain more than one screenshot. |

| The way things were developed in season 2 there is a possibility of having a 3rd season but who knows. I usually don't like to compare manga with anime. I see each of them as different story lines with many coincidences for the majority of cases. I haven't had any problems with the pacing of seasons despite some cuts that happen here and there... |
 |
| Ichika has gotten awfully underhanded with the way she does things. The difference between her and Nino is that Nino fights head on! I'm rooting for you Nino! Really really like how Nino cheered up Miku, felt really bad for Miku when she cried. :( Interesting, so Yotsuba is the one that Fuutarou met 6 years ago, so who's Rena then? We did get some really cute Itsuki blushes which was a nice bonus. |
