Ichika is so cute! And I love her deadpan reactions to Ryo lololllll

Also what a waste of a great voice cast with that audio quality. They are doing Toyonaga Toshiyuki dirty. He makes a perfect Ryo. And once again Kimura Ryohei plays the cheeky friend.

And I wonder what’s up with Enoki Junya’s character?

Pretty hilarious episode! Ryo is honestly a good dude, he's just genuinely and innocently in love. And this is pretty much legal in Japan so I don't really see the problem anymore. As long as there's consent and all that, this is a pretty wholesome show.

I really like Ichika, she's really great. And at this rate I think the microwave voice recording will become one of the charms of the show lmao, I am getting used to it.

Ryo got to see Ichika in an apron. I guess that's a win for him. XD

It's not like the age difference are too big of a deal, but 10 years is still too long >>; I guess I am up for the entertainment, but their relationship? No, not really :/ Still, it was a nice episode :)

so poeple dislike this anime because of the age gap ? ridiculous !! there are many manga/anime like that, + Ryou has no desire sexual toward Ichika, at least for now. Ichika has 16, in Japan it's a legal age.

Ichika still the star of the show, not liking Ryo that much still.

Oh how Ichika is now falling for Ryo it seems (both literally and figuratively speaking)!

Also this "hentai protagonist" probably overheard the conversation at the staircase Ichika almost fell down off. I am curious to see what role he will play.

I don't really do romance but I appreciate it when it's done well. This is definitely not done well.
Make her a college student over 18 and take out all the stalker, womaniser, won't take no from the male and maybe it will work.

In my country, and in most of Western Europe, the legal age is 16. Even if he were 72 instead of 27, that would still be perfectly legal.

Their relationship is nobody's business but their own.


The legal age is 16 *for couples of the same age*, not for adults and children. It's an anime, so in theory it really doesn't matter, but a lot of anime (as well as a lot of popular culture in Japan and the West in general) acts as if it's OK for age gaps when one partner is still in school ... newflash, it's predatory af.

This was a good episode again. School festival isn't new, but for sure is enjoyable. I like Ryo's old friend too.

Side note, people bringing their life values onto this when this is clearly supposed to be wholesome... just one day... can we go without the negativity.

Okay. The clicheness route continued. Ichika slowly felt something wrong through her body. Okay. But, idk why she should blurt his smell out. What else his smell must be? Candy? Its unnecessary, tbh, together with that her friends favourite food. I couldn't care more with that! Well, at least its a progression, right? I got another cast introduction too this episode. Two supporting male characters from the poster already revealed. Ryo old friend kinda sus. But, that one boy looked more sus, and might possibly become Chika's high school crush. Idk if its lead into more drama, need more chapter to see whats his exact role.

They also showed the siblings backstory. Okay, not much bring a good feeling over that. But its still fine to setup her motivation. So, its started Ichika to thinking more about Ryo? Hmm an understandable reaction. The truth is, If Ichika really annoyed with his act, she should've kick his ass asap. Rather than that just show how adored her toward his smell. Really, kimochi warui route. Even Ryo know that shit. Lmao.

Okay. Next.

I don't get why people are finding the age Gap a major problem. It's just fiction and it really doesn't matter as long as it's a fun watch.
Love the ending song btw


It's not the gap, it's that she's below the age of consent. Even the show admits he's creepy.

The whole thing is pretty cringe. The bar conversation was awful. The attempts at humor with his over enthusiastic responses, the shoving food in mouths, hitting a guy on the head with a ball etc. are all just dumb. It's not enjoyable in the least unless you're into creepy relationships.



So if she was 18 and the age of consent was 18 Is that somehow meant to make it better

Most Americans throw a fit, Japanese find it funny. The contrast is very interesting to see. It's not as bad or even the worst as ppl make it out to be tbvh.

And if the synopsis makes.you uncomfortable why rant about it? Lol

RIO IS THE MVP AGAIN IN THIS EPISODE!!! She is the best Wing Woman for Ryo but I am glad she came out and told him "If you hurt Ichika I won't forgive you." I definitely think that will come back later in the anime but I think it will be great development for everyone.

I kind of want some focus on Rio as well but we will see what happens.

Okay no Eyes Boy definitely saw or was around for the hug...so we'll see what happens there.

It is not illegal in all countries. Depends on the country

Also, laws are man made and subjective anyway. Who decide that it must be 18 ? And not 16 or 17 years ?

I love this show already. Ryo is so over the top, and they do it in a funny way. And it's even better by how he is totally cool and capable with other people. It's just this girl that makes him change.

Girls dream of meeting a guy who is handsome, successful, and especially who is sought after by other girls. All that's missing is having authority over other people, but his ease in handling others kind of fits that. And then he should change his ways, from dating a long line of women to have eyes only for this girl.

The most sold literature genre by far today is women's romance literature, paperbacks like Harlequin. I know, we are in a sorry state. But those stories and their enormous success, with constantly more titles sold every month, show what women fantasize about, and it's exactly these factors. Just over the top. Koikimo should do well.

This, sometimes people need to check what is popular in japan and why. This kind of stories are what jap girls like and buy. Thats why we are here having an anime adaptation of this.

I think episode 1 sounded somewhat weird and episode 2 improved. Ryou still sounds weird, though.

The complaint about her being a minor would be valid if the show was about her and the MC having SEXUAL RELATIONS. But the show is nothing about that.

It's virtue signalling to think putting ephebophilia in a mainstream show is gross? I think you picked that phrase up somewhere without taking the time to find out what it means...

Again, ephebophilia is also about sexual atraction. You're seeing a grapefruit and calling it a grape.

Also you can have ephebophilia and feel sexual atraction to legal adults (age for ephebo is 15-19), so ephebophilia is not the issue.

LOL SNOWFLAKES SO TRIGGERED.

MAL really is turning into Twitter. Ugh...what's with all these normies complaining about anime all the sudden? GTFO. The community was way better without your Karen asses. :p

....anyway...

I want to see more of Ryo's bad boy past. xD And I like his seiyuu's performance...why do people think it's bad?

Also found the running gag hilarious how his friend kept calling for stuff at the bar that bars normally wouldn't have and the bar tender goes right along with it. xD

I expected Ryo to be in his early 20's but being 10 years older than highschooler Ichika is quite the age gap. Its nice to see Ryo managed to save Ichika this time from the dangerous stairs.
