Maaaaan, this Makoto guy is starting piss me off. He's just a really perverted superficial character, I see that now. I'm getting that weird rapist vibe from him.

Liked him at the 1st ep, disliking him at only the 4th. I gotta strange feeling that this will only go downhill further ahead.

BUT, right now it's a 7/10. I'm yet to see what's the fuss around this anime.
Enjoyable so far.

Kotonoha didn't wanna be groped, bro.

Wow, Sekai giving him special training. Wow. I knew they'd end up together somehow but that's how lol.

I feel so sad for Kotonoha

Makoto is like the stupidest guy I've ever seen in anime, he doesn't see flags that aren't fucking big as the universe

8 more episodes to go before this torture ends

As far as Makoto, I would wager most guys would honestly do what he did around that age.

I really don't get all the hate on Matako...

He never raped anybody, and never tried to make an advance on anyone but his girlfriend. Even when he did make an advance, he stopped himself and apologized whenever he did something Katsura didn't like, and tries his best to restrict himself from doing it again. That being said, he is pretty dense.

Sekai invited him to "special training", and told him to touch her chest. That isn't rape, that's her exploiting his situation. He is frustrated because he doesn't know what Katsura wants (because she is too shy to tell him), and is misinterpreting a lot of what Katsura says because she isn't being open about anything. When he told Sekai about it, she took the opportunity to invite him to "special training".

Things could change in later episodes, but as of right now I'm blaming Sekai, not Matako. After all, Sekai is the one who is responsible for this whole situation.


Thank you. Apparently Makoto is getting worse later, so maybe I'll start to "hate" him as well.
But so far, their behavior is pretty much what you should expect of people in that age.
Makes me wonder about all the comments here. Either the people commenting must be very young, life in a very puritan society, or they haven't been around (male) teenagers a whole lot.

The bottomline of this show so far: Those two are both very immature and not ready for a mature relationship. They only reason they're in one is Sekai. I don't dislike her, but if you want to blame someone for this mess, it should be her.

I must admit, I found the "practice" scene very sweet - for Sekai, I mean. It's clear that she's in love with him and wants more - look at how she reacts when he whispers "I love you, Sekai".

with each episode i like katsura more. she IS trying. she's just madd shy.
Zadion said:
Not that I care about him feeling Kotonoha up - I mean, that was obviously rude, though his response to her afterwards was far worse than him actually doing it, as he only gave a halfassed apology. But he pretty much cheated on her. And I felt SO AWFUL for poor Kotonoha sitting there staring at her phone, blaming herself and worried she ruined everything when it wasn't even her fault. Gosh she's cute and Makoto doesn't deserve her, clearly.
I agree with this. Kotonoha, while not very smart, is very sweet and well-meaning. She is a good girl. With a better guy she could have a beautiful romance. It is clear that she is trying to open up to him. Meanwhile, Makoto is being dickish about it - refusing to even look at her. I felt very sorry for Kotonoha during that train scene (and later when she is composing that mail to him).

He should be shamed of himself.
I'm guessing you've never had a girlfriend? (And I'm not saying that to insult you, but more as the logical explanation for an otherwise very confusing, inaccurate statement)

I've touched quite a few girls inappropriately. I've also had girls touch me inappropriately, sometimes even the same ones I've touched! So have about 90+ percent of men and women who have ever lived, including, in all likelihood, your own parents.

I'm also not sure what this has to do with "rape", as Makoto always stops when a girl voices her objections.
I strongly second this. Makoto does many things wrong, but it would be hysterical to accuse him of sexual assault or rape (at this point). He just tries to escalate sexually and hence sometimes oversteps the girls' boundaries. That is not sexual assault. What you should be concerned about is his infidelity and his emotional callousness.

SweetKiichigo said:
Katsura should seriously slap him hard next him or knee him down there for being a pervert.
Please stop misusing that word. Wanting to touch your girlfriend's boobs is not perverted.

Lycan said:
All three of them all have problems, not just Makoto, you know...
But I feel bad for Kotonoha this time because Sekai and Makoto are fooling around behind her back?
(I don't care what anyone says -- Sekai totally initiated that and Makoto should have said no.)
Sekai and Makoto need to be honest with their feelings. It's not fair to Kotonoha.
I agree with this. All three people make mistakes. Kotonoha is the MOST innocent, though - she is just a somewhat poor communicator. Sekai is at fault for tempting Makoto into cheating, and Makoto is at fault for cheating. IMO Makoto is MORE at fault than Sekai is, because it is his relationship, and staying faithful is his responsibility, not Sekai's.

At this point, Makoto is not a good boyfriend, but neither is he that bad. He does cheat on Kotonoha, but he can still sort of rationalize it as being "practice" in order to improve his relationship with her. It's not a good excuse, but it is better than nothing. He is bad, but he has not committed any major violation. Yet.

You really don't understand why? It is pretty simple: Because she is conflicted. She is horny and she has a crush on him, AND she is also nervous about getting sexual with him, AND she feels bad about making him cheat on Kotonoha. People contradict themselves all the time, because their desires are complicated and contradictory. That is normal.

In what was the most unsurprising development in possibly the history of humanity, Sekai and Itou are now having an affair. This won't end very well, that's pretty obvious. At least this episode had a few interesting developments here and there so I wasn't bored out of my mind the entire time. I'm not the biggest fan of what I think this will become though, where it's just showing the negative consequences of Sekai being selfish (although at least she seems to be having doubts) and Makoto being fucking stupid, all culminating in Kotonoha just getting hurt. Not my kind of show, amigos.

Are we gonna get more SPECIAL TRAINING scenes??!

I’m not getting subtitles for the texts that they write for each other during class, it seems like what they’re saying is super interesting and I wanna know, but I guess not knowing is not game breaking and not that I’d care for what it adds to the story if anything but I just wanna KNOW BRO. Anyway I’m not watching this because I directly want to, I just wanna see what all the fuss is about and give it a fair rating. So far it isn’t the complete garbage I was expecting; I’ve seen worse. Still, this is pretty close. That said, I’m actually enjoying this a bit- in 4x speed lol

And just like in clannad sometimes I cannot tell who is who because all the girls look the same wtf

Lol I read few comments and I see a lot of kids rage in here ;d Kill, hate Makoto? Lmao ;d Hey this isn't anime for kids go away from here. It is very normal that a young man want to do these things with a girl. I wouldn't call it cheating yet also. In Makoto head he want to be with Kotonoha, but as previously Sekai lead him to good relationship with Koto he still believes in her help as it worked very good previously. It is Kotonoha and Sekai fault only, they play the poor dumb boy as they wish, but then Kotonoha tries to overcome her weakness. I thought that Sekai will lead him to love hotel, but she stopped at that so it is all good. At least for now as I think he will end up with Sekai at the end. It is fine for me, he probably won't , but he should break up with Kotonoha first. Too bad that Makoto doesn't have anything in common with any of the girls.

Some comments are from 10 years ago I wonder what the kids would say now about this anime ;d
So far after 4 episodes I like it. Too bad the funny part is over :(

i think makoto is a real idiot -_- he's just like every perverted high school guy... he's one of those people you can't really get deep or truely serious with. He's not even that attractive to me T__T~

this relationship is so high school cliche... not enough drama for my taste
still... it's ganna be interesting if kotonoha finds out (?)

I don't know, but I like Sekai more than kotonoha.. Maybe my personality is closer to Sekai, but Kotonoha is to.. shy.

and makato is a fucker. I hate him. He needs to die, very much so. I feel bad for sekai that she loves such a jerk.

Honestly, Makoto is an idiot. He doesn't consider the feelings of Kotonoha or Sekai. He says it's too complicated for him. He should just beat off to his porn like he usually does. His hormone levels must be off the charts. I hate this guy. What kind of girl offers herself for practice?! I want to drop this, but I can't do that just yet... I wish for him a horrible death. I wish for me that my ankle is not broken, which is the other reason I'm mad.

This is rly funny reading all the comments ;d I guess some of them were young pure girls (rare in current world) same as Kotonoha :D No way a 20+ person would be so mad after only 4 episodes of this anime while nothing bad happened.
Now I know why this anime is so underrated.

WHAT THE FUCK AM I WATCHING-

and why on earth was this uncensored? did they really air it like that?

Makoto easily takes the prize for the worst MC ever, congrats.

And what does Katsura want? She first says she doesn't like Makoto touching them while in the bath then says, "it's not like I don't like them touched" when asked by Sekai. Wtf does she want. Gotta admit though she's too pure and inncoent to be with a guy like Makoto. Makoto afterall is a teen with his hormone raging, can't really blame him but that doesn't make me think he's any less of a scum, dude's got no concept of self-control.

Also is Sekai lying to her friends about Makoto being her bf???

The moment she said "special training" I could already smell what was gonna happen. Well at least Sekai fulfilled her wishes by using "special training" as a front.

Feels bad for both Katsura and Sekai. Imagine falling for a scum with no qualities and that scum even cheats on you. damn.

Ohhhh, I see why people hate this now! Yeah, no, a whole cheating arc is absolutely disgusting for a show like this. From this point on, I think this will be a hate-watching session for me.

Kotonoha's tits are huge! No wonder Makoto couldn't resist those puppies. Looks like he still can't quite grasp that trying to go from first-base straight to a "home run" might be shocking for girls though, lol.

This anime is heating up, and the tension in the air in palpable in just about every scene now. Great stuff.
