To be honest, I'm still confused why this is even considered a shounen. The boobs?
The genre list on this site tends to be pretty retarded sometimes.

For example, Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai is listed as a seinen, but not as an ecchi or harem. Obviously, someone retarded decided on the genres.

It runs in a shounen magazine, so it's tagged correctly. But then of course you'd wonder how this got serialized in a shounen magazine.
(I wouldn't know about Haganai, though. That's pretty silly.)

This episode just made me want a quicker pace even more. I can guess where they're trying to end this around, but I was hoping they'd go further since some people had said that the plot really begins to pick up several chapters later.

The appropriate issue to be targeting.

Despite the episode being dull a little of the missing fights, it was rich in emotional and character interactions. The whole episode went hands down to Ririchiyo. Having said that to be short, Ririchiyo in the following,

Caused me to face palm totally. I though it was going to be coffee then BANG it’s not! Oh no, it’s totally something it is not. FACEPALM! There is that part and there is the outside near the school part where Ririchiyo was to say that something but instead opted for the weather comment.

I got to admit that Zange/Banri were great in the spoiler
that was the funniest part of him just because Zange along with his behavior towards Banri made way for good laughs.

The usage of the Chibi forms throughout the episode such as in the spoiler
is what really made this episode nice. They gave out the comedy they were deemed to.

In thee end I liked how the start and resolve went in the spoiler
Ririchiyo learned something of more that made things progress between here and Soushi, that of him not being good for other than serving. What I am most afraid of is of ”Can Ririchiyo handle the Truth?” no matter how bad sexually it is or so on, point is how will she take it? On that note, I think she can’t handle it. I am very doubtful that Ririchiyo can have any mature side of sexuality at all. So chances are Soushi should not reveal too much of the spoiler
for that can get mindfuck Ririchiyo a lot and I do not think she has the shields of mentality up to defend herself.

About the fan service, it was rather well balanced out.
  • Ririchiyo in her shirt and white panties in the spoiler
    always has its charm. More so when it shows her chest than panties since it does not show it all while the panties can be seen as whole.

  • Ririchiyo’s fan service bath in the spoiler
    despite being not the zoom of all zooms, was the best. Simply because ti showed all of Ririchiyo’s body including the size of her chest. That was not shown like that before but they are pushing it since this last episode marks Vol4’s end.

  • Finally random stuff like in the spoiler
    of poses gets funny since it’s random and all.
Suffice to say kudos to the fan service in this episode. It was clean and nice.

About the preview, looks like games are starting and Zange announcing already sounds promising. Oh my! Will Soushi feeding Ririchiyo here with a fork of all utensils? Looks like Ririchiyo is getting more tired for her to fall asleep like that. That is not counting how tired she got in this episode. More fan service of Ririchiyo but shower this time in the spoiler
??Sounds about right from the visual. For some reason I think Karuta’s clothing here will MOE her more than before. Looks like Nobara here got some frenzy out again and it will be interesting to see where that goes.

BTW Image Stitches are done in the spoiler
Some of Ririchiyo and scenery.

Fan service mainly.

They could at least make up a plot! Even a bad one would be fine! But even without one, I still love this series. The picture of Soushi at the half-time thing made me melt.

Whoa. So many people raging at the show going so slow. Honestly, I don't mind it. They are all adorable. The manga so far has 6 volumes though I think they are only going to cover 3 at this pace. But honestly, that pace is just as the one manga had, so I'm really comfortable with it. Though I admit I was hoping a bit this episode would already unveil the letters. Well, glad it returned back where it was supposed to go after last episode. Karuta is delightful. <3

This anime would be so much better, if Ririchiyo and Soushi weren't the main characters imo. I'd take Karuta and Banri over them any day.

Soushi puts all other stalkers to shame, its incredible how this guy knows every single detail about Ririchiyo.

Aww the three best friends eating lunch together is so sweet and fun to watch. And Watanuki keeps reminding us he's is a delinquent, yeah ok sure. Nobara hasn't failed to make me laugh every episode.

Dat preview. Poke.

I think this is the only show I've watched that, even though nothing's happening, I absolutely love it.

However, they better have teatime fucking soon or I'm going to get angry

It's just a coffee time, get over it already. *rolls eyes*

LOLed at the preview. Was that Chino's breasts? I wonder who's poking it? My bet is on the Yuki-onna. XD

Haha, an awesome episode! I liked Ririchiyo's drama, also that she(and we as well) got to know something important about Miketsukami. But I liked at least as much the humour, it was on a really enjoyable level. Like the moments when Ririchiyo was trying to ask Miketsukami to have a cup of coffee with her, but she was ending up speaking about something else :D Or when Miketsukami was speaking his mind about coffee, especially the part about coffee being what indeed gives light to his world :D :D :D

I just realized that episodes with heavy focus and I mean like 80% of the time it's about Ririchiyo and Soushi, it gets boring :/ I just don't like them as much as the other side characters.

I totally get how Ririchiyo feels when she cant ask him for coffee. I too am very shy and I would think about it all day and in the end not do it XD
