I feel like for the first few episodes I was really into this series, and now I felt like I was dragging myself through the episode. I did very much enjoy how it ended, though, and the idea of more characters coming into the storyline is something I hope for. Two is really boring.

I really really like how the show is coming along.

God they were so funny in their argument D:
Excellent episode like always and I loved the scene with the ending song as background.

Why do I have a strange feeling that Asaba might develop feelings for Yukino in the future?

First part was okey, second part was strange that they also added that concept... either way decent episode although weird it looks so different then before! This third character that's been added might get interesting but it might also go the whole other way and make the whole story shit! Currently they sure look busy!

Lets see what will happen next!

I really really like how the show is coming along.

Now this argument felt bit unconvincing to me bc she's dating most popular guy who's top at everything and will have promising future. But well i had to say i liked how he pushed Asaba against wall so little details don't matter haha

It was hilarious when she fought him for revenge but... if he becomes a rival I might come to hate this anime, probably. Because I hate love triangles, especially these types.

Please don't turn this into a love triangle.

That being said, it's fine as things are. Having more characters doesn't hurt, but I don't want to lose too much focus on the main duo either. We'll see.

Lots of good character interactions and humor, as usual.

Welp, Asaba is a bit eccentric...Good that things turned out this way, though. Nice conflict. Arima's words cut deep.
"She stays with me even when there's nothing to gain". Damn boy.

I didnt quite understand how he thinks that using Arima is kinda better than putting an image of a perfect high school girl but whatever. I guess she deceives others while Asaba only deceives Arima which makes kind of sense.

Asaba seems like a fun character. I hope it won't turn into a love triangle because that's so cliche (he seems nonthreatening though), but otherwise I'm cool with his addition to the main cast - part of Lovely Complex's backbone was its interesting cast beyond two main characters. I've compared this anime to LoveCom before but it;s just because the overall tone seems similar.

Just hope Asaba's addition doesn't water down the cute/funny moments between Arima and Miyazawa.

Mostly a comedy episode and the introduction of a new character. It's pretty good though.

First episode I felt slightly ehh about.

Hope a love triangle doesn't develop.

New characters are nice but yeah hope it doesn't take too much focus away from Yukino and Amira.

The animation on this anime is like the last two episodes of Evangelion, but formalized into a a style.
I like it.

Asaba is gay, I'm 100% convinced

A love triangle? This should be really interesting.

Every character in this series is redeemable.

I can't say I don't like Asaba after the last scene.
The only thing missing this ep is Miyazawa at home with her sisters.
Instead of Asaba, I'm more worried about some other girl trying to steal Arima.

I get how they're so busy that they can't see each other much, and how hard it is.
One thing that kind of strikes me so far, is the depth of Arima's feelings for Yukino. They both care about each other, but one seems like she's more into the crush and the experience, and the other seems like he's truly in love with her. I feel like that's going to create a conflict of sorts later on.

weird episode overall... what is Asaba up to with that sudden character change? Oh, well, i can enjoy the fact that he has the same italian dub voice of Ranma Saotome. Honestly, i missed Yukino and Kano.

New guy is cool and all but i hope he doesn't end up causing a love triangle.

Normally a character's mother getting sick is bad news for them, but this guy isn't blood related.

Asaba's really funny. His dream of a "Maryland" was hilarious xD Sucks that Yukino and Arima's date was ruined.
