syudou's OP is peppy and lively, though I pretty much preferred Mafumafu's 1st Cour's OP. The 2nd Cour's ED is just as great.

Takayuki reading the same line in a book over and over again, his backstory of his classmate Motoharu moving away and switching schools before he could have to chance to tell him of his self-written novel. And now, that same person in the form of Igarashi, is the upcoming author with a movie to his name, and the two meet with little to no coincidence of their young days.

It's only when the meeting is underway that Igarashi sensed that he definitely knew Takayuki, it's just that he's a bit of a dense airhead to remember anything before. Instead, the talk about old times past has Takayuki interested, and it definitely was a reunion long awaited.

Exciting times to meet people, it's a small world.

I like both the new opening and ending. The music is really well done for this show. The scenes for the opening are really fun too. 

Also, apperantly someone from Pokemon's design department also read the manga and decided to turn the breadmon into a Pokemon. (Fidough & Dachsbun)

And I like the little touch of Souma's brother laughing about Takayuki not realizing he knows Motoharu. I'm a fan of these little details.

Ohh the anime that exists to make me smile every week is back! :D

I got a new ship for Mima! >///<
It was funny when Mima thought the 'sensei' was just fortune-telling but they were actually classmates lol! Poor Igarashi thinking Mima might've forgotten about him. :')

So excited for the next ep! Wanna see Mima and Igarashi meet again, now that Mima might have realized that the author was actually his friend. ^^

Oh, and we have a new op & ed! Sad for the ed cause I reallyyy loved the first one, but this new one sounded good, too!

Just letting this out, but the fluffy feeling I get from this anime can't be compared. And as someone who is in the "dark period" of her life, being able to feel like this is "healing." The smiles, the giggles and chuckles, the butterflies... oh man. This anime may be too simple, but it makes me glad to be alive. :)

Motoharu, a new character:D Its nice to see another clumsy boi. But bro Takayuki is super dense lmao, like what? the new op and ed both sound really nice as well. More relaxed than the first cour op and ed. Though I really liked the first cour op over the 2nd one and the 2nd cour ed over the first. Anyways, looking forward to seeing more of Motoharu.

Oh no! Mafumafu's OP is gone!!! It used to be so good!

The way Takayuki just didn't realise he already knew Igarashi. haha He even went as far as thinking Igarashi has Holmes-level deducing abilities!

Souma's older brother also laughs at mistakes like Souma does. It was so cute and wholesome. 

I miss the old ED too. It was fun waving my arms when they went "Flash flash flash flash". lol

Takayuki looking back to his childhood when a friend borrowed his first novel and hoped that Takayuki would give his opinion but he got sick and couldn't say it and at the same day Motoharu is moving away. 

What an coincidence that Takayuki and Motoharu meet up again at an meeting but Takayuki can't remember him at all, or at least that is what he thinks. Motoharu is now also one of the guys with his teddy bear at the ED song.

it's beyond dense that he didn't realize who Igarashi was.

why'd they have to go and change both themes to sentimental crap. I miss my teddies.

A new guy officially joins! I immediately liked Motoharu, he seems really cheerful. I wonder what his clumsiness reaction is (cause I noticed -kinda late probably lol- that every guy has a different reaction when they do something clumsy: Hayate is embarrassed, Shun plays it like he "did that on purpose", Mima just ignores it and Souma laughs about it).

I can't believe that I recognized Makoto Furukawa's voice right away! I always get excited when I realize I started recognizing a new seiyuu lmao

The first OP and ED were amazing, loved both. I liked this new ones but not as much, but I guess they can keep growing on me.

Dense as in the "dumb" more like... but it's ok my son you're doing your best.
though........ after all it's just TOO dumb. I'm going to make up for my own peace of mind that Mima lost his memories due to high fever that day
see you, space cowperson . . .
