EstebanOD said: I see no one in the first pages talking about how this show dared talk about taboo subjects such as homosexuality and being a travesty! They delivered the message in a very smooth way. It did a very fine job. And it even drawed a relationship between sexuality and art. This is maybe my favorite episode for the moment. |
 |
| Love how we're delving into the art. Kuwana seems cute. |
 |
| New characters are fine, like the new teacher. First half had abysmal pacing but they calmed down a bit. They reveal Yuka is a boy but my pp is still hard. |
| Hmm studying art is sure a difficult matter, but seems like Yaguchi found some "friends" to train with him, it's gonna be hard but I hope they can do it. What do you expect Ryuuji... this is basically tricking people not telling them something that important, I mean not surprising the guy got afraid if he's only into women. |
 |
| Fuck, the episode ended in the best part. I'm enjoying this "arc" a lot. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Guh-Ros. Sick of this nasty stuff popping up in everything. Ep 2 got me at the scene with the mom, now I wanna throw up. |

| This episode was really good, but couldn't help but feel like loads of things had been cut out. It seemed way too fast of a pace, but enjoyable nonetheless. |
| Yaguchi certainly 'befriended' some eccentric people. Trap characters are most often comic relief so it's nice to see the serious side of being transgender like Ryuuji. |
 |
| Well i do support ryuji dressing as whatever he likes but... you cant expect a guy who doesnt know youre a guy to easily accept it if hes straight. I think it would help to be more open about crossdressing and loving it and start seeing at as your way of art. Kinda like rupaul dragqueens enjoy it in their way and are proud of it. Not saying its easy to do so, so guess they wanted to show that? Then it felt rushed.. i mean i would first talk to the guy seeing if hes into guys before confessing personally even if not crossdressing. But neverthless i felt for ryuji.. so sad. Must be hard to be told to look like a guy and that youre way cuter as a guy wheh you dont want to. I personally cant relate so can only imagine how it feels. I like ryuji as a character, fleshed out good development and touching moments. I wonder, do you guys also compare movie adaptions of books to the books? I never get why people go like oh its fast pased as i just read the manga and its missing this and that. Sometimes you cant just stuff everything in but still enjoy it. Its why i usually prefer watching first then reasing to enjoy the anime and be less of a critic. I bet the manga is more detailed, but isnt that a reason to start reading it? Thats works for me at least, it motivates me. So far the show caught me ^^ its nice. I loved the teacher here, her instructions are reasonable and she doesnt put him down, she just lets him think and wonder. Good :) we all start somewhere and you cant become a pro in a day. |

| I'm really liking this cast of characters so far. They're quirky and unique. A bunch of interesting weirdos. I just love the ED though. It's so pleasant and soothing. |
| Shocked there isn't a subplot about Ryujii getting bullied |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| I'd date Ryuji Ayukawa myself |
| the trans boy was a surprise, I though from the beginning that he was a girl!!! kekeke |
realswagmoney said: the misinformation that transgender people actually look like the gender they want to be? then correct. transgender people look nothing like this. they look like chris from mr beast instead.Kiriyama_big_fan said: She literally said that she would die if the society does not accept her wtf Also I've read the whole manga, she identifies as a woman but it's portrayed as she's crossdressering to be liked by men and not because of gender dysphoria I mean, dying if society doesn't accept you isn't a thing that only applies to trans people, it applies to the whole lgbtq community. And that's fair, I have no clue how she's portrayed in the manga. Either way though, if the creator is trying to portray Ryuuji as a trans woman I have to agree it's a bad take since I'm pretty sure trans women aren't trans because they want men to like them and it just kinda reinforces misinformation about transgender people. |

| Ah so she was a guy....that's why her voice was deep I was really confused. |
