| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- And the boys shows up: About time~ Riko looks kawaii as hell this episode though imo. Dat pigtails. The English was funny too I guess. Well, the boys FINALLY showed up. Maki and her blushes ( ¬‿¬) |
 |
| damn... XD finally guy show up XD damn riko is just too cute XD |
kuuurt said: Dropped. I promised myself that I'd drop this as soon as guys show up. AGREED. I made the same promise for myself as well, I'm going to start watching Love Live! now instead of this in hopes of seeing something better. I'll always remember Maki as the best girl of this show before dropping it, at least she didn't turn into a zebra unlike that girl from monogatari lOL |

This episode seems to be setting up Riko/Satoshi and, to a lesser extent, Maki/Jan. Cute! Can't wait to see where their relationships go.  Kind of wish the whole childhood rejection was uncovered this time but oh well. I'm betting that he put all his energy into confession and Riko, being a derp, brushed him off without realizing she was rejecting him. Seems like something she'd do.Also damn, look at her rocking a more flirty outfit! Pretty, looks good on her. :) Edit: lol @ those who expected yuri. |
| Yay~ the danshi finally show up :) Watching Maki and Jan (I laughed so hard at his name) talk to each other was entertaining. Can't wait to see the development between Riko and Satoshi :3 |
 |
| dropping a non-yuri romcom anime, that you admit is good, because a guy showed up.... o_O it's not tagged as yuri or shoujo-ai.... what where you expecting to happen? on topic, this was a great episode. I'm looking forward to to the riko/satoshi development too |
| "Let's make a miracle happen using the power of friendship." "If that was all it took, there'd be no need for training arcs!" "Normal rabbits don't carry guns!" |
| This episode was amazing. One of the highlights were a few boys were introduce in this episode as well getting to see Riko's family. I hope Satoshi will make another appearance in future episodes. Overall another funny episode as usual |
Yess! Maki Talking english at last! |
| Jan seems awesome. |
................................................................................. |
| People dropping a show because male characters show up? Sure is misandric in here |
 |
| Loved this episode :) Lol'd at Riko's brother XD "I already think of her as an aniki"XD and "Nee-chan suddenly blew up in the middle of the road" XD Lol'd at how her family was scared when she was acting creepy dere XD Satoshi is a pretty nice guy. Blushing Riko Kawaii Jan's design reminds me of Keima a bit XD Maki's interactions with him were so hilarious and her blushing at him indirectly calling her cute XD Poor Maki...she's not ready for the real world and gotta feel bad for Jan too with how abnormal Maki was acting XD Nxt ep seems fun ^^ |
 |
| Finally guys! Riko was saved and her fake reputation was protected and Maki's kyaas XD I like Satoshi and Jan so far. Go Riko, I support you with both Jan and Satoshi! :D How his name turned into Jan was hilarious xD I am loving this show like 100 times more and I already loved it. He looked like a girl before. Not Riko's fault after all. Maki is as adorable as ever. The guys are as good as the girls. I love Riko x Jan but Riko x Satoshi and Maki x Jan are equally adorable. I am such a big romance lover so this series is ultimately leading right now in my favorites this season. Jan is also a top student I think since he could understand Maki's perfect engrishu. Maki x Jan it is! I love it so much. Tsundere Jan is hilarious. It is one of the best romance series out there. I am looking forward to the rest of girl's boys. I want to hurry up and watch the rest of the series quickly but gotta wait, too bad. Momo, woah she surprised me there. I loved that sweet voice of hers. Things are gonna get troublesome but extremely interesting as well. |
 |
| great episode 5/5 Riko is too cuteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee i love u Riko that dam satoshi go buy a pair of balls and go after Riko already plssss... hahahaha very good ep :) |
| "What a massive plot twist!!" Darn, my ship is sinking, help! *hardcore Riko/Maki shipper* That won't stop me to watch it until the end though. It's, for me, one of the best show of the season. It's still funny as hell. :') |
 |
For someone who prefers straight romance, I'm glad there are guys in the show. /5 |
| for some reason, having guys in the show feels more balanced. this episode was refreshing in that sense. |

| Satoshi looking like a girl when he was little lol. Jan was funny in this episode. FlamingYu said: /5lol. |
 |
| Satoshi and Riko are such a cute pair. I feel horrible for Satoshi though, really, poor guy. D: Jan and Maki are cute too. This was my favourite episode so far. I hope they develop these two ships. |
| at first (during the first two or three episodes) i really, really shipped riko and maki, but when people were saying it won't turn into yuri, it was okay for me. i also think the yuri vibe was gone pretty quickly (the first episode was the most intense and misleading one imo). i'm totally fine that there are boys now. so i don't understand why people would drop it, especially when they enjoy this show. i like the boys. satoshi is really cute. his blushing face *u* and maki and jan would be cute together :3 i also liked riko's family. they're exactly how i imagined them. i had to laugh at the scene when her brother was saying he thinks of her as a brother :D i'm just worried about the two new characters from the newspaper. they seem annoying so far... |
| I loved this episode. It was hilarious and had nice plot progression. I love me a good slapstick comedy. ITT: we have idiots who were looking for yuri who never should have even started episode one. Jesus, if you had read the synopsis and genre before starting this you would have known this anime wasn't for you. Hell, you would have known just by watching episode one that this wasn't a yuri. |

| Go ***k yourself. Polite as usual, lightXTC |
| Great episode again. i love how the guys had so much role in episode. some pics : Riko and being sad :  Nooooo, why did you left maki alone? xD  I loved the way that momo (?) pushed herself into these two :  |
| My 2¢, I think this series continues to be quite entertaining. I will continue to use my yuri goggles because that is why those are for, to see something that ISN'T there in the first place (Riko x Maki ftw! >_<). Also, that is why there are doujins *creepy smile*, I stumbled upon one the other day so more are bound to appear. I doubt this series will go into full fledged romance because there are not enough episodes, but I look forward to more tsukkomi action! |
| OMG!! I so totally inlove in this episode!! XD So cute. Cute. Cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuute!!!! ^^ I was laughing all the time.. I laughed those running effect: Satoshi x Riko.. And Yan x Maki moment too... HAHAHA. But it went down when it reached near the end.. :/ |
na35899 said: that dam satoshi go buy a pair of balls and go after Riko already plssss... Riko has more balls than him (and that probably won't change IMO. BTW, I haven't read the manga if there is one) and Satoshi is a tsundere so Riko needs to be forceful is she ever wants to get lovey dovey with the guy. |
| I'm unsure what I'm gonna do when the next episode is the same quality as this one. You see, it's already on 10/10 now, I cannot raise it any higher. Troubling =/ I really enjoyed this episode. The way mom talkoed about satoshi in the beginning reminded me of a mother trying to set up a marriage meeting for her christmas cake daughter XD Riko in übercute mode with twintails and heart gata virus...erm bag and miniskirt and ZR basically killed, multiple times. And I basically laughed my ass off when the newspaper girl sneaked her way into their convo in the end XD reminded me a bit of the SCOOP! girl from seitokai yakuindomo (only more subtle) Btw, I just LOVE it when the show temporaily shifts to a more cutesy artstyle (usually for the lulz) I want to eat Riko. Whole. Or at least tickle her fang. |
| I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl |
| That conversation between Maki and Jan was very funny Maki's inexperience when it comes to talking with boys really showed which was also very cute. Especially the moment she got red from embarrassment. Jan also has a lot to learn about the female hear it seems. Riko forgetting about her childhood friend because he looked more manly was sad for the guy but she remembered at some point. Tho it does seem he has a major complex for being girly. |
| Pretty good episode |
 |
| That was a good episode, the boys are actually pretty funny lol, especially Satoshi; men shouldn't be called cute. We also got to see Riko's little bro, and he's almost like the opposite of Riko. They made this episode more entertaining, and Maki's engrish was gold xD |
 |
| Well, so much for that "flawless data management"... Also, lol at Riko's interpretation of Maki and Jan's conversation. |

I'm looking forward to to the riko/satoshi development too seriously why were people expecting it to be yuri when they are clearly researching how to get guys? were you thinking that in the middle of their research they would fall for each other and it be yuri? i mean really? >_> anyways... FINALLY some dudes show up so we can see the fruits of their labor. this episode was definitely the best one by far, i loved seeing Maki reacting to guys, it was adorable :3 and apparently Riko had someone interested in her and she never knew! i cant wait to see that development. basically for this episode: FlamingYu said: /5:D |
| jesus dropping a show because a few guys show up what an absolutely brilliant reason. |
 |
| One of the funniest episodes so far imo. I love this anime! Maki is soooo cute!! <3 |
| My god BEST episode ever. That was just so awesome. I didn't expect guys to show up in the show at all. Rikos brother was so funny. Jan and Satoshi too. I really hope it wasn't just for an episode and they are gonna develop some kind of connection with the girls. |
 |
| The guys have been in the manga consistently ever since they were introduced. I doubt this will be their only appearance in the anime. |
| Definitely best episode since the first one! The show is just waaaaaaaay funnier when it focuses on its to best characters Riko and Maki! Clearly Don't have a problem with the boys showing up, made the episode even more enjoyable then the last few. |
 |
| 'Hello It's a beautiful evening glow' If the anime continues to be this hilarious then I don't think anyone would mind if the guys keep consistently showing up. |
| None of us expected it to be yuri, we just kinda hoped even though we knew it wasn't to be. A comparison is kinda like, knowing a show's been canceled, and knowing in your head that it won't be there, but still turning the right channel blindly hoping the next episode will be there. I was going to drop it when the guys showed up too, but I ended up liking them. XD Oh well, looks like I'm a keeping on watching. Riko's pigtails/5 |
 |
| i've got one question did satoshi hit riko? when she told him he has a cute smile... or did he just ran away |
| Hit her. Considering Love Lab is very much physical comedy oriented if ya hadn't noticed already, there will be gags like that. Though usually it's with the Suzu-supplied paper fans. |
na35899 said: i've got one question did satoshi hit riko? when she told him he has a cute smile... or did he just ran away But do not worry, Satoshi hits like a girl, Riko was mostly taken by surprise and shocked that *again* she failed at obtaining the info she chased the guy to get. If she had really been injured she would no doubt had paid back Satoshi with plenty of compund fracturesinterest *evil grin* |
| The conversation between Jan and Maki was just hilarious. |
| So cute >.< Finally we have real romance. Why expecting yuri when all of the girls want to have boyfriends? As a audience, we should wish for their dream come true :v |
