Well this was fun. Beer can do funny stuff to people :>

I'm not so sure for Mitsuo though. He doesn't look like he's having fun at all. I'm liking this Linda girl though, she seems to be independent enough to speak out her thoughts.

I'm sensing some development between Banri and Kouko this episode as well.

Ah welcome parties, the beginning of my freshman year was a lot like Banri's sans the loin cloth wrestling.

Interested to see people's reactions next week when they go on the retreat with this new club. I know I was thrown a curveball when I read it heh

Are the males depicted in this anime representative of Japan's current youth? What kind of red blooded man would not want to join the Tea Club?!!

I see 2 love triangles forming there and potential for a lot of heartbreak and misunderstandings.

Crazy tea club, no wonder the film club members were terrified of them. I liked the scene where Banri was being dragged away and Mitsuo and Chinami were reaching out for him. And LOL at Banri and Takaya being forced to sumo wrestling, poor first years. I'm glad my college doesn't have crazy clubs trying to desperately recruit members. And if I were Banri and Kouko, I would not go on that trip, that girl talked to the waay too long and it sounds like she's glorifying the club. But anyways, fun episode, and yay we got to see Linda! She wanted to invite Banri to go somewhere but it's too bad he saw Kouko in the back.

I'm hoping Linda gets more screen time. She seems very interesting, and an enjoyable character. Kouko seems too obsessed with Mitsuo to the point where no one talks to her. After all she is from a rich, and prestigious family so seeing a student of her class would make others think she's the type of person who only cares for fame and money. I don't really like Mitsuo, he is treating Kouko too harsh.

I want more Linda x Tada time, those two have a natural click.

Ahh the Tea Club ... reminds me of a saturday night down my local bar/pub

I'm interested in the Pre-OP segment, some kind of dream about what happened in the past ... and then theres the looming 3 day welcoming party with the drinking-centered new club that Tada and Kaga is going along with

I wonder what kind of looks Tada will get~

That Tea club is something else...haha . The sound effects and the setting in the Tea club part was perfect.

Kouko's scene sure shows...society at its finest. Can't say Guys don't act like that, which most do in my perspective. They see a hot girl, two personalities come to mind, "Is she going to reject my conversation?" or "Oh she's hot, worth talking to her". It seems like in that college the first choice comes to mind adding knowing their status are added padding their social look to the high class.

Linda's character development on the second episode is still shredded in mystery, other then she seems to have a vibe that she likes Banri but doesn't act on it.

The Banri and Kouko relationship seems fun to watch and quite pleasant. (Can't get enough watching the beautiful character animation of Kouko in the first place) It's simple and liven the points sweet atomsphere esp. the part where Banri and Kouko talk about her feeling invisible, that was some cool words there for Banri. Overall, loved the episode and if things keep working the way they do this anime might become one of my favorites. Sweet!

Loved it! :D

Dat tea club party was soooo lol, Stripping and dancing like no tomorrow XDXDXD

I'm really feeling bad for Koko. I wonder what she did to Mitsuo to make him hate her this much?

I was wondering how the hell Koko and Banri are gonna get soooo lovey dovey like they are in the OP...because that's a friggin high level of deredere I see there.
I guess I'm starting to see hints here and there how he'll win her heart.

Wondering how Mitsuo will react when Banri and Koko start dating though? That should be a nice test of character.

Linda looks really good in casual clothes.

Anyway loving this series a lot. And nxt ep seems really good with BanrixKoko goodness so can't wait.

Loving the OP & ED so much!! <3

Well, I really like this so far. And I don't think Banri is dull at all. He is just the observing and somewhat calm type, but will be opening up in this new way of life soon I guess.

The funniest part was what the tea-party really was all about. Didn't expect that!
Oooowh, and the preview! Some Koko x Banri development probably!

The whole Tea club bit had me laughing alot!
Though i was really feeling for Kaga in this episode, its just sad that everyone's not approaching her just because of her social status. I'm actually starting to root for the main pair, which is rare for me (regarding romance animes >.<)
The next episode seems to be the one where Tada falls for Kaga.
The OP/ED really are sweet.

That Tea party... I was laughing a lot in that scene XD, and kind of felt bad for Kaga being alone with no friends. I hope the club that she joined will feel better. Also the interaction between Banri and Kaga made the episode a lot better. Man that ED song really catchy :D

I don't know anymore who do i like more.Kouko or Linda.I can already see some drama moments between them later on...hopefully i will be able to survive it.
I wonder why is Mitsuo ignoring Kouko so much.I won't accept ''because she's annoying'', there must be something more to it.

Somehow i can see this show slowly becoming one of my favourites this season.

Awesome episode, who would think the tea club parties hard. I like Linda, but just from the opening it is pretty obvious what is going to happen. I don't mind though Kouko though so either way I'm going to be happy.

I wasn't anticipating a development between Tada-san and Kaga-san but that seems to be the direction they're headed this episode. I can already see the drama playing out with Mitsuo because of this but what can ya do..xD Kaga seems sincere enough to me and not acting for sympathy. I felt really bad for her that everyone just talks about her and not to her. =< I'm looking forward to this blossoming development.

I could see some of that chemistry between Linda and Tada as well so it'll be interesting to see that play out as well.

Really looking forward to this series. =)

Looks like the love triangle flag between Linda, Kaga and Tada have been set. Will be interesting to see how that goes.

I feel a bit bad for Kaga though. She's definitely one of those girls that would be unapproachable for me IRL. Dressing up all flashy like that makes it pretty tough to start a conversation since it's like she's way too high maintenance. Hopefully Tada points that out to her.

Can't wait for next ep!

That tea club sure is crazy, and that guy with the glasses reminds of Keima with his 2D girl obsession xD
I like how this show presents how wild college life could get, if I go to a college that has a Tea Club like that, I wouldn't mind joining. But I want to see more of Linda, she seems interesting so far, and I want to know more about her, so I hope she gets more screen time later on.

God I am loving all over that ED.

So we are already met with the scenario that gets Kaga away from her normal routine of stalking. Banri is a good guy all around. I see a lot of another character in him ;) I have the same question as some others, what will Mitsuo have to say about all this? I would think it would be "Thanks for taking her off my hands man" but it might turn into jealousy. Who knows. Then we have Linda thrown into this mix. Her interest in Tada was obvious this episode. Good stuff, good stuff.

Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.

Tada is a pretty great MC so far. He doesn't guilt trip his bro, but still keeps his own opinions. He doesn't give in to the girl, and actually offers good advice, while still being suspicious of her intent. He is far from the generic doofus MC trope. I like it.

The tea club :O

Linda looks totally different without her stuff on I didn't recognize her at all, I thought she was new character o.0

Awe Linda was going to invite him somewhere, but he interrupted her :(

Oh wow that woman can talk.

3 days and 2 nights is long welcoming party :p

I'm shipping Oka and Mitsuo now ;) I would ship Tada and Linda, but it seems like Kaga and him are going to be together.

So much better than the first ep
