Lol, Oota is really popular.

The pancake though...yum, delicious. I think Oota and Tanaka made a good decision to get that. Shirashi in a nutshell this episode.

Lol, at Tanaka's guess on how Oota's sister looks like. Shirashi and Tanaka would be an awkward couple since they're complete opposites.

I've a feeling Tanaka might accept Shiraishi's feelings eventually. I like the idea of Ohta and Tanaka together but I know it won't happen. I just can't imagine Tanaka in a relationship, so I'd rather things stay the way they are. I think this series doesn't need romance anyway.

Oh my god, I have to agree ! The moment he said "Actually, I already thought we are friends" was so sweet of him and my heart melted. Miyano at the end was awesome too. She really found out about the true feelings haha. It's such a sweet, innocent romance story and I love it ^3^

The frist half was funny. I just couldn't stop laughing. I want to see both sisters now :D

Shiraishi's part is actually one of the newer chpater, but... YES. MORE SHIRASIHI.

First half was okay, can't wait for when Tanaka's sister actually shows up. The second half tho. T'WAS GOOD. Miyano was exceptionally awesome at the end.

It's weird that Tanaka and Ohta didn't even know they have imoutos lol
Inb4 they're in the same class too
Can't wait to meet them

"I want one in my family" Everyone wants an Ohta. I want one too

Lol'd at the "Does he have anyone he likes?"
"ME" XD

Shiraishi was cute. Nice to see she's friends with Myaano now too. And Myaano actually figured out she's in love. Ohta's denser than I expected tho...lol

I love Miyano is so sharp when it comes to romance. You really wouldn't expect that from a person so in her own world, I love it.

The beautiful thing here is that this series doesn't need romance to be great and funny - meaning there is very little at stake in the classic "will they or won't they" scenario introduced this episode. Anything can be done with this, because it's really far from being the focus of the series. It could end next episode, with Shiraishi deciding through hilarious hi-jinks that it's not love after all. Or it could continue to be done for laughs when needed. Or it could be done heart-warmingly. It could even be done as a part of character development - say, if the series at any point decides the"Tanaka-kun being listless" scenario is out of jokes and shifts to a "Tanaka-kun seriously striving to stop being listless" scenario.

This show is just... I don't know why, but I really like it. It's so warm and pleasant to watch, so relatable yet funny. The characters are great, and even though there's no plot, it's still fun to watch and come back every week.
Hmmm... I guess I DO know why I like it. :P

Hahaha. Lol at Ohta realizing that he is the one that Tanaka likes.
Also, the mothers at the supermarket wanting Ohta. >.<

I kinda like how they made Miyano a "supposed love rival" when Shiraishi saw her and Tanaka talk together. What made it even more interesting is that she realized that Shiraishi is in love with Tanaka and will secretly support her. >.< D'aww.

Just when I thought this series was on its way to be one of my favorites, they're adding this romance bullshit. This series it's fine the way it is, it doesn't need romance to be good.

Relaxing and funny as always of course. Supermarket part was fun.

Great episode once again. Sure Ohta not being able to put 2 and 2 together when it was so blatantly obvious what Shiraishi was getting at, but this was still very much enjoyable. Shiraishi is definitely best girl and is making me like this show more and more with every passing episode.

An unrequited, impossible romance really opens a lot of comedic possibilities, something like Gekkan Shoujo, I hope.

MIYANO IS MVP

Seriously that was so cute and clever how she helped her get his phone number :3

I was kind of doubtful we'd get a romance storyline in this show but I'm all for it. I don't know how it could work out with Tanaka's personality being like that though. I'd hate for it to get a comedic ending with Shiraishi finding out the reason Tanaka recognised her.

Also thought we'd see their younger sisters this week already.

+1 for Miyano being awesome (she is officially my Popura substitute since Working ended ).

Shiraishi got more cute after falling in love. The scene where Oota says Tanaka likes him was hilarious.

Finally took my time to see the ending music and oh boy! Tanaka was not lying when he said he sister looked like him. Hope to see her next episode.

I have a confession to make i was in the supermarket today and toilet paper was on discount but i didn't buy it.
20 roles of toilet paper is way to much for me.

Well love is in the air but it seems it will be a while before Cupid's arrow hit's Tanaka from the looks of it.
It's going to be nice too see what happens tho.

There were lots of cool, hyped up shows coming out this year, like Kabaneri, Re:Zero, Sakamoto, etc. Who would have thought that Tanaka-kun, a show I decided to watch on a whim, would be the show I would look forward to every week?

btw, Ohta x Tanaka; obvious ship is obvious

The episode was brimming with sweetness, but I liked Ohta's parental moment the best. It was hilarious how much effort and logic he and Tanaka put into figuring out what was the imouto's request. Male pride is a thing for a reason, imoutos, back off! :D

Almost everything about this show is really refreshing through my lenses (of course "good" and "refreshing" are subjective).

The characters are all really refreshing, especially Ohta. I've typecast his VA in my mind as someone who does more action-y characters. I watched a bunch of shows that he played a part in coincidentally before this season started and seeing him voice a character like this is super refreshing. It took a few episodes to adjust, but he has really nailed Ohta. The interactions between other characters, what few there are, are always interesting and each character is very consistent in their behaviors and ideals.

The music is where it needs to be as well. Both the OP and ED fit the show very well, and the music throughout the show is nice and not overbearing. It does its job very well.

The visuals are all very eye catching and the overall animation quality is great where the focus needs to be. There are noticeable drops in animation quality outside of the focal point of a lot of shots, but the show does a good job drawing your eye to a particular location. I'm not averse to this kind of thing when a show knows where it is ok to slack and by how much. In the case of this show it almost adds a bit of flavor.

The romance aspect is also very playful, at least from what we've seen up to episode 5. The preview for episode 6 seemed to imply that Tanaka would be sick, so we'll see to what lengths this show takes that on the romance side. I'd like this show to remain just as light as it has been, so I hope the current romance we are seeing maintains a certain level of detachment and doesn't become a major focus or overbearing force on the direction of the remaining story.

I can see how people would think this show is slow or boring, though. If you aren't really invested the conversations seem rather dull and uneventful. I would normally think this as well, but Ohta is carrying the show like a champ. He is the perfect foil for Tanaka and his patience and persistence are nothing but admirable. As long as it continues to be as playful as it has been I think this will end up in my top three for this season.

ShiraishiXTanaka for non BL people, but TanakaXOhta for others.

I'd ship them all Tanaka is good Waifu quality tbh

Is it Oota or Ohta? I've been hearing things...


Nothing else to say really, it's really just like the manga! I can't wait to see the sisters too!

It's something when a show as one note as this leaves you wanting more. Keep on doing whatever you intend to do Tanaka-kun. It felt a nice reprieve from this action-filled season. I got the Flying Witch first. Now, this. Yay!

PS: Tanaka x Ohta is the OTP here. Don't meddle please. :D
