| I really can't tell who's more dense between these two idiots, Ryuuji for thinking that Makoto figured out the fact that he likes him, or Makoto for thinking that Ryuuji likes Aoi... I really can't. I can see why these two are friends. Dense people aside, someone with an actual brain is Makoto's dad. Compared to his shitty ass mom, he's such a great, kind, and caring father. A more Ryuuji and Aoi focused episode this time around. We don't get much Makoto this episode. I'm glad they're at the very least developing the side characters or other main characters whatever you want to call these two. We get a school festival episode along with it. Which ofc, has to have the classic maid cafe. To which btw, in terms of maid cafe, Ryuuji in a mid outfit was the highlight of the episode. I mean, JUST LOOK AT HIM.  But that boy Ryuuji done got CAUGHT IN 4K... It's so owari.... |

| So glad my beautiful twink bf is back this week I missed Makoto sm last week. They delivered an absolute banger as well wow so much good stuff here. Amazing depiction of someone coming to terms with their sexual identity and gender. First of all Ryuji and Makoto misunderstanding about Ryuji’s crush is hilarious. Poor Makoto thinks they’re being a good wingman with Ryuji and Aoi but all he wants is you, silly! “What would you do if I wanted to be a girl” I LOVE LOVE LOVE. The conversation between Makoto and their dad in the car, started tearing up a bit. The dad doesn’t miss a beat, doesn’t get upset or anything just pure understanding and love for his child and the desire to see Makoto happy no matter what gender it is. It’s so beautiful to see a moment like that in anime. I just wish they could get Makoto mom onboard too. Normally mothers are the more nurturing and understanding ones.. I loved Aoi and Makoto basketball club conversation too which served as a double entendre for Makoto’s gender situation too. If you’re not sure about being either one, you don’t have to be! You just have to be true to yourself and live your life the way you want to. On the literal side of things, the basketball club captain being so understanding of Makoto not wanting to fully commit to the team is so sweet. Where tf can a hs like this be found because normally kids this age are so judgemental lol The school festival planning and start went great! Makoto and the others in their maid outfits are so cute, but that ending 😭 They’ve been building up Ryuji finally confessing but man I didn’t expect it to happen like this. I wonder how he’ll explain the picture of Makoto he keeps, if they’ll brush it off or if he’ll finally have to come face to face with his feelings. Need that next ep badly |

| random unnecessary drama and best girl removed herself from the running 3/5 |
  |
| zzzz low effort anime, will be a good day when it's finally over. Get rid of these eyeless freaks as well. |
| Not too eventful and a whole lotta time was skipped. Most of the problems would've been resolved if everyone just communicated lol why did Ryuji reach out to Aoi to see why she disappeared? I guess that would be too logical. What annoyed me was that Makoto still failed to realize that Ryuji liked him. He went over to tell Ryuji that he could like Aoi and just dips before Ryuji could say anything. So now that Ryuji's picture of Makoto has come to light he needs to confess, right? They're not going to drag this one for longer, right?? Major shoutout to the dad for being the best dad known in anime history. If only more people were like that irl. |
As a wise man once said, "No one hates anime more than anime fans"  |
| Shit that cliffhanger! How do they expect me to wait a whole week...(◉⌓◉) |
| Makoto's father is such a bro. One of the best dads in anime. Kinda expected Ryuji's class to be doing cross-dressing cafe but I thought it would be boys in maid costume and girls in butler costume rather than just doing it to the boys. |
| Everyone in this anime is far too gay, like, this is not statistically possible. This is like the average Redditor's fantasy world. |
| Pretend there's something flashy and cool here. |
| Unfathomably based dad So... genderfluid/10? And holy damn that cliffhanger ending |
| Censorship is vandalism. |
| Bro Makoto is so dense, though tbh I can't blame him for coming to the conclusion that he did. Poor Ryuuji....Makoto's father is so supportive, it's nice to see. The basketball dude is cool as well. I really like how all three characters had different thoughts while watching the same drama. Maid Ryuuji is super adorable, though I saw him having to crossdress as a maid coming from a mile away lol. But damn, that cliffhanger?!?! Seems like Ryuuji basically has no choice but to confess, dunno how he's gonna spin his way out of this one. |
  "As promised, all that you seek, all that we desire, is prepared up there. On top of the Tower." |
| Its so refreshing seeing an anime be so open, healthy and sweet when it comes to characters figuring out their gender identity and such! The scene with Makoto and their dad in the car, as well as Aoi and Makoto's conversation about how you dont have to choose one or the other were the highlights. Really makes those two such likeable and supportive characters! Aoi is baby This part with Makoto misunderstanding the person Ryuji loves to be Aoi is kinda frustrating. ;/ Its nothing new to romance anime but the scene where Ryuji is about to confess to Makoto and then they abruptly cut it off with "I'm rooting for you!" is just like ughhhhh. That kinda thing where the characters are overly dense feels like padding instead of what would happen naturally in that scenario. Its ultimately not a huge deal, but its a thing that always annoys me with romance anime -.- The ending cliffhanger oooooooooooooo I wanted to see more! There is no way Makoto has a super negative reaction to learning Ryuji's feelings right? They've been through that rejection of their feelings. At worse I think they'd just be surprised and wouldn't reciprocate. It does seem to me that Makoto has kinda caught feelings for Aoi even after everything. Im hopeful the next episode will have some great character development Im really enjoying this anime! Looking forward to more ;3 |
Cute, fat, chubby, gay, queer, glasses wearing, nerdy, introverted, weird, kinda fucked up in a cute anime girl way, squishy, soft, fucking gay, silly anime girls my beloved I love cute girls and philosophical shit ;D    |
| A few weeks back some were mentioning how there was too much stills and way too much cutting to the chibi art style... I didn't feel that UNTIL this ep. Felt like the majority of it was just that, when its likely half the ep was that. Thats too much. There was also too many scenes where they cut to silence while showing some quick scenes to show this is whats happening (Such as the maid cafe and Makoto working) and you know this was likely down to save on everything and make the work load easier, likely do to what i suspect problems in production. There were plenty of points I would've loved to see properly animated. :( I hope this isn't a sign of the studio having problems... I also hope any other anime they make going forward doesn't have this problem as while I haven't seen but a few of theirs that they've made, the ones I have seen I don't recall having this issue... Hopefully the staff are ok and get this sorted going forward. |

| Makoto's dad is so chill. I am not sure who I should feel sorry for more Ryuji or Aoi. |

| makoto gnc legend |
| W Makoto Father!! Wow I fcking knew it as soon as i saw Ryuuji and the others boys reaction to the drawing, i knew it's gonna be Cross Dressing Maid Cafe LMAO OMG bro got caught in 4K What a cliffhanger 😱 |
 |
| It’s Makotover. Makoto’s dad is a real G |
| Halfway and our shishou wanted to confess. The episode ended with pictures, but it's too early. Makoto is too naive to even think that Ryuuji likes him. |
| Kinda surprised this show don’t have the BL tag considering it’s a pretty big part of the show. I think this might be the first show I’ve watched with BL as a main topic. I don’t really count vampire dormitory because the mc was just a girl in disguise. I guess lycoris recoil counts though but that wasn’t really a main part of the show. I just had some weird feeling this episode that it would lead to some form of a confession or Makoto realising Ryuuji likes him. But dam I wasn’t expecting him to see the photo Ryuuji keeps. Hyped for next ep |
| ❤️ Makoto's Dad, we all need supportive parents like this. I do appreciate everyone being so open, seems his mom is the only negative so far. It's nice to see but this kind of high school definitely doesn't exist. I'm surprised no one has brought up being non binary, he doesn't have to choose to be one or the other. I was expecting that cliffhanger, you could tell something was going to happen the whole episode. Is Makoto starting to feel something for Aoi? Makoto could be missing Aoi around tho. |

Reply to Moppit
Is his dad a really nice guy? He could of just accepted a son that just likes cute things, without suggesting a gender swap. In a way he's still denying his son.
| @Moppit Or maybe he didn't consider it? Pardon his unawareness. It's clear that he's a supportive father who prioritizes his sons happiness. It's the thought that he will roll with Makoto no matter what that counts. Nice episode again. Ryuuji won't get out of this one lol. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| that cliffhanger had me upset now I have to wait to see how Makoto will react, even though I imagine with how clueless he is towards Ryuuji’s feelings he might not even think of it as a big deal lol |
 |
| The chibi style animation is getting too much. Many scenes I would have loved to see fully animated. |
 |
| rough ending. I just all of them to be happy :( |
|
| @Moppit Makoto has to come up with an answer himself. His dad is there to support him. Implying it was insensitive just because he didn't have "perfect answer" from your pov, when he's doing his best in this complicated situation is kinda twisted. At least it's not healthy way to look at it imo. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Omfg noooo the cliffhanger...... It's so over for Ryuuji, I'm not emotionally prepared to see him get rejected :( If only they could all be happy together... Makoto's dad is a real one wow, love to see an anime where the father is the supportive and accepting one of two parents. |
| I'd like to award Aoi with a prize. I think this may be one of the first times I've ever watched a main character actively downgrade themselves to a side character. It's fascinating, really! (I imagine this is temporary, but in the moment it feels so wrong) |
 |
| Another episode of makoto's father being an absolute supportive king 👑 ngh, that cliffhanger tho 😭😭😭 |

| I hate the whole love triangle trope especially when I like all the characters, it stresses me out the entire anime and I always feel bad for the characters who get rejected. 😭 |

Reply to Tacsk0
Studio literally put a "bearded woman" into this anime Eurovision 2014 song festival / Paris Olympics 2024 opening show style. How much did George Soros pay them? It's where this story ends for any decent viewer.
| @Tacsk0 So let me get this straight, you're a fan of yuri anime (judging from your list) but draw the line at trans people? Grow up ffs |
 |
| Ryuji getting better...but still seeing Makoto as a potential partner, he's literally getting dunked with misunderstanding that Makoto thinks that he's in love with Aoi, even if it's a dream...that's so hilariously dead lols. Even Aoi feels the same, that Ryuji has to force the truth out with the former knowing his real intent. The career planning definitely is a pivotal moment for both Makoto and Ryuji, though the former's father still remembers his own son's intent to keep becoming a girl. But still, he needs to decide for himself, as such with being invited to the basketball club, and Aoi thankfully leads the path for him. Makoto deciding to join the basketball club for the time is good, and other than Aoi's time to confess, it's Ryuji being conflicted at how he's going to confess to Makoto. The trio having to watch corny romance shows, each one of them tells a lot about their character, especially Aoi, who loves on a basic level. The upcoming cultural festival prep has everyone in high spirits, as Makoto and Aoi are their usual selves...and Ryuji being a cross-dressing maid just spites himself, though the last-minute stand-in being Makoto is the perfect cross-dressing character. But welp...having to be found out that Ryuji's been keeping pictures of Makoto, how will both boys handle the truth before their very eyes? |
 |
| Reiji in the maid outfit was hilarious. I really like Makoto's father, he is very supportive of him. |
| I have ADD, ADHD & AUTISM, but this won't stop me. Let's keep having fun together. VTUBER LIVE STREAMS YouTube/Twitch/Kick/Rumble/Twitter = https://linktr.ee/dolfunthedolphinvtuber ANIME REVIEWS - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3agtBvVDdHFzXbqPV47c-A  |
| this is so interesting to watch !! btw im still straight but enjoying this show because unique !! |
| Is this like going to become a love triangle or something? Aoi developing feelings for Ryuuji? or I'm not sure. Anyway for now Ryuji's secret is out? |
 |
| I hope Ryuuji will confess his love tbh... but now he'll kinda be forced to do it since Makoto just saw that he kept that many photos of him :/ |
