| Nishikata and his daydreams lol Nice to see the episode with a baseball game although I wish the segment was longer. Mina and her friends had to deal with a cat on their own little adventure. I always love how this anime focuses on the cast besides just Nishikata and Takagi. Need more! |
 |
| The raining part was soooooo cute and lovely. Yeah! There was a progression, especially from the Nishigata side. Even though he always acts like he doesn't want to stay with Takagi, deep down inside he really cares about her. |
何それ？意味分かんない  |
| The baseball scene remind me of using bottles and paper balls to play baseball with others in high school. And the raining part is so cute and sweet!!! |
 |
| The previous episode was strange. I am glad it got back to it's normal flow now and I utterly enjoyed this one. Nishikata is finally starting to be more proactive. You love to see it. And Takagi blushing, what else do you want? |
| ‘It may be admitted that if it were possible for us to have so deep an insight into a human's way of thinking, as it shows itself both through inner and outer actions, that every, even the least incentive to these actions and all external occasions which affect them, were so known to us, then his future conduct could be predicted as certainly as the appearance of a solar or a lunar eclipse.’ Critique of Practical Reason, p. 230 of the Rosenkranz. |
| On a hot day, a fan is needed to keep the cool breeze, and Nishikata thought he has an edge over Takagi, so the usual games occur. But this game of who fans the eraser the farthest, he thought that it would move, but ended up wasting his energy actually fanning Takagi instead. The solution is as simple as just inching the eraser, yet Nishikata overthought that and ended up losing the bet lols. The romance is slowly seeping in between the both of them, which is slow progression thereafter. Hah, Nishikata thought that he could imitate his favourite manga scene, but not when Takagi is watching him closely. Since he so wanted to desperately do that, Takagi followed suit with the baseball feeling with the mental picture...which integrated their entire class and their homeroom teacher. And welp, that's a Home Run which sees Takagi finding out more of what Nishikata likes. Baby steps. The Doyoubi girls trying to rescue a cat which's been stuck between the walls...Mina's too short to reach and her unappealing face scares the cat off, Yukari's too long to insert and almost got stuck. It took the rain for it to get unstuck from its fluffiness...stare... The "Rain" part may just be the episode's best as Nishikata wouldn't want Takagi to find out that he didn't bring his. Temporarily loaning an umbrella in a rush to get home to watch his favourite program vs. assuming that Takagi had hers as well. The same pattern strikes again from a previous season, and Nishikata's second-guessing leads him back to school to offer Takagi a walk home together under the loaned umbrella. At least he plucked the courage to ask her, which is cute (and technically he won this one). This is no longer on purpose, but intentional to get cozy together under the same umbrella. Another cute episode. |
 |
| Nishikata and his imaginations, just never go hand in hand lol. But still him coming all the way back just to check upon Takagi, was the actual best part. |
 |
| Lol the baseball and the fan game xD though the rain part was cute even though it's classic |
 |
| Finally some development for Nishikata. He got concerned and came back to school to share an umbrella with Takagi. I am quite entertained. Good episode. |

| Finally we're seeing a proactive Nishikata and it's a great development to see. |
| They finally fixed the OP xD Takagi is no longer glitching and the beach-running scene doesn't seem "photoshoped" lol. More wholesomeness this episode. That end, especially. |
| Very wholesome episode again. But this time, Nishikata walked back to school because he was thinking about Takagi-san not having her umbrella ^ The teasing is getting a little bit more like a toned down version of Nagatoro after s1 :p Even the three girls are getting some screentime which is why I really like this show. Everything is so wholesome and cute (oh and finally they fixed the rendering issue with the opening) |

I just went ahead and compared the opening on ep 2 and ep 3 and there's a significant increase in quality and refinements have been done lol. Looks like they released the unfinished version of the op with creds for the anime. Because the one without credits on YouTube uploaded on Jan 7th is the fixed version |
|
| You could have just texted her, Nishikata. |

| Home Run! Very good chapter, the rain scene very nice <3! Well done Nishikata. |
| Great episode, the beginning fan bit I absolutely knew Takagi would literally use the fan to the move the eraser, a shame Nishikata couldn’t see through her wording lol, made for a nice moment when he was fanning her tho. The baseball part was also great, loved the imagination Nishikata has, he also imagined some of the side girls as cheerleaders lol, and of course I loved Takagi shouting home run. I also enjoyed the stuck cat bit, it definitely wasn’t a “plumpy” cat, and the ending umbrella bit was good too, Nishikata took the initiative there and I like that. This season is turning out to be another great one, and nice to see the same ED as last episode, I really like that one. |
| Another great episode. Am I the only one who starts smiling the moment the OP begins? I was smiling for most of the duration of the episode again and now my cheeks hurt lol. Also they fixed the OP visuals! Takagi was brilliant with her fan challenge, poor Nishikata. It made me so happy to see Nishikata go back for Takagi, it shows he actually cares about her a lot. 5/5 episode. Looking forward to next one. |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| This is soooooooo cuteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee |
| Takagi with the passage of time hides his love less and less, she gives some "clues" that in real life even a 4-year-old child would understand... It's fine and I understand the concept of what the anime wants to convey, but sometimes it drives me crazy how stupid Nishikata is. They're high school students, he already has hair on his balls please... It seems like Takagi is a stalker because she's totally in love, but to me it's because she can't hide it anymore, she's going to explode. Situations like the one with the umbrella make her have a withdrawal syndrome of constant demonstrations of affection. |
| The eraser part was predictable and boring. Neko part was cute and the last part was sweet. |
 |
| I'm glad that the OP animation issues have been sorted out now and it looks much better as a result, too. =) The episode itself was wholesome and cute as usual. Nishikata continues to take the L by embarrassing himself in the eraser fan game and the amusing baseball role play he did with Takagi. However, the last segment of the episode was the best by far. Nishikata was lucky enough to bag the last umbrella available and started to head home, wanting to watch a anime collab of his favourite series, but it dawned on him that Takagi might not have brought her own umbrella with her, so he did a good deed to go back to school and offer to walk her home under his borrowed umbrella. This was some excellent character development for Nishikata as his concern for Takagi made him prioritise helping her over watching his anime special. He deserves a pat on the back for this, that's for sure! ^_^ |
| That's ma boi Nishikata! So sweet to go back for Takagi even though he'll miss the show that he anticipates. Man, I'm screaming for 3 straight episodes now lmao. |
   |
| "I know Everything about you" Takagi sounds like femdom...guhehehe 5/5. |
 |
| Ma boy Nishikata miss the show for Takagi. So sweet. Takagi-san is a stalker confirmed. lol |

| Welcome back to Nishikata and Takagi-san's little misadventures. The baseball-manga scene was hilarious. Nishikata missing the special episode for Takagi san was cute :) |
 |
| My heart is warm, no matter this hellish summer outside. And that's all what matters |
 |
| Damn this episode is cute as all hell. The fan scene was alright and the baseball scene is funny fosho, and I've never seen Nishikata defeated like that, Takagi's teasing at its finest. I wonder what series is that manga referencing to. The trio's interaction with the cat is also good, and I agree Mina, as much snobbish as they are, we would love to fluff them cats. And then the umbrella scene, wow our boy has slowly build up his guts. Would've love to see them under an umbrella again, but we can't be beggars for this lovely series. Overall a nice episode. Although I laugh on how Takagi claims to know "everything" about Nishikata, creepy for others watching, and for me....eh why not. Oh and how can I forget, Takagi saying "I want to know everything that you like" to our boy made me tingle, a strong shot to my kokoro indeed. |
 |
| Called the fan part on how Takagi would end up using the fan to move the eraser further than Nishikata. Hadn't considered she'd double down on it by having the eraser positioned so she'd get a 'free' fan while Nishakata was trying to move it with fanning power xD Progress is little by little, but we're getting some in every episode. Takagi won the fan game, but used her win to literally get closer to Nishikata so that he could benefit from the breeze too. And then the rain segment. A major step for Nishikata as he took the initiative to go back to check on Takagi. Not out the premise of beating her or avoiding a teasing, but out of genuine concern :3 |
 |
| AH AW FUK, MY HEART, AUGHHHH IT JUST RECOVERED FROM THE LAST EPISODE NOW THIS ANIME DESTROYS IT AGAIN AHHHHWW SHEEITT HE WENT BACK FOR HER WTF AHHHH MY HEART anyway, another week, another good episode, and another dose of best girl in all of anime: |

Takuya_Kanbara04 said: Technically speaking, they are still in middle school. Japanese middle school year 2 is equivalent to 8th grade in America... Yes, sorry, a translation error because in my country the system is different blablabla... In any case, I was referring to the fact that he is 12-14 years old, it seems that he acts as if he had never seen his penis, that he has a beautiful girl next to him telling him that "I want to know everything about you" and he acts as if he sees a fly. That's why I was saying that I understand what the anime wants to convey, but it is already seeming to me that instead of a series of a girl bothering the boy she loves, it seems like an anime of "a boy with mental problems and low intelligence is molested by a girl who no longer knows what to do to make him find out about her love". The fine line between "pretty and innocent" and "you're dumb". |

| 5/5 episode, 10/10 season. Cutest and sweetest anime I've ever seen. I usually like ecchi, fanservice, harem. This one gets the 10 without any of that and with nothing tacky, cheesy or melodramatic. It's just anime done right. Awesome soundtrack too. Really fits the mood. Aiaigasa is the best! godavid10 said: In any case, I was referring to the fact that he is 12-14 years old, it seems that he acts as if he had never seen his penis, that he has a beautiful girl next to him telling him that "I want to know everything about you" and he acts as if he sees a fly Yeah they're like 12. Anime guys are always dense like this, otherwise the show will just be a movie or a few OVAs. If they ever confess or kiss, the tension is over. And romance is awkward for 12 year olds. |

| At the first challenge I saw it through how Takagi would cheese it but I wasn't expecting that to happen and I lost when that sound effect played His face when he saw Takagi just chilling at the teacher's table and almost looked like it stopped time, That was cute when Takagi screamed home run The time has come as we witness Nishikata's big turning point and this exact wholesome moment was so heartwarming to watch. |

| Poor Takagi san has too wait until Nishikata stops being a prank obsessed kid. At times I like that Nishikata tries to act like a boyfriend, coming back to escort her home was really nice there. They should try to slowly end the prank & competition interactions or bring them down by 50%. Nishikata never wins against her and she doesn't even try hard to outsmart him. Still I enjoy this season, I hope some progress will be added in the upcoming episodes, basically they are dating every day but Nishikata has to realize her feelings at some point. |

| "i know everything about you" no like she Literally does .... girl listens in on every convo he has and looks at him every chance she has MAD WHIPEPD!!! bit with the trio and white cat was pretty funny, love how yukari got her head stuck while helping it, not being able to get out and just suddenly did it while trying to look at something last part was way too cute. nishikata going back even though his fav show was about to start, and getting his shoulder wet from it Just because he was worried about takagi san. her not forgetting to bring an umbrella wasn't even a certain thing but he still did it MANNN I LOVE THIS |
