Well I have to give Fuutarou some credit for trying his hardest to getting these girls to pass their exams.

I liked the way they gave more confidence to Ichika this episode ever since their incident. Hell, she even gets a headpat as a little reward. The more they interact, feels like the more Ichika is falling for him. That phone conversation Fuutarou had was also hilarious.

So winter finally arrives huh. Its nice that Ichika was able to be honest to her sisters about her aspirations. So their first trial finally arrives. Fitting in that the mid terms will be it. Damm Itsuki's expression changes was so cute. Guess the mid terms really become a bigger hurdle when the girls fathers make it an order. Hmm using provocation to motivate Itsuki huh quite the interesting strategy. Nino's imitation sure was cunning of her. It was amusing seeing Ichika try to push Miku and Futaro together. Still Miku's interest sure is becoming more evident as her question shows. The traits sure made for a potent motivator for the girls though especially Miku. Though the distance between Futaro and Itsuki and Nino have grown wider its nice that he also gained a new ally in Ichika. Lol quite the situation Futaro ended up in during the night.

I'm not sure which would have been better, having good animation from the beginning and seeing it rapidly decline, or just have so-so animation from the very beginning which wouldn't get anyone's hopes up.

Fuutarou really embarrassed Nino on that staircase, shouting all that stuff without much context.

Fuutarou is honestly still struggling to get all the girl studying together, but atleast he is progressing with Ichika, Miku & Yotsuba.. Yotsuba for me at the moment she really seems to be a comedic relief character. Definitely hoping that will change.

To think the father of the girls wanted to speak to Fuutarou. He's up for a real challenge now.

Ichika is slowly falling for Fuutarou, meanwhile Miku is already sold! God damn, there's Miku cuteness overload in this episode. That ending though, lucky guy that Fuutarou!

Miku is still way ahead in waifu wars. Ichika is pretty cool though, she seems mature or at least acts it. Nino still sucks though.

Itsuki focused episode next week, still love this series

As Ichika said, Fuutarou and Itsuka are being both stubborns, hope it changes soon!

Miku blushign are always cute, poor Miku she is the total oposite, but she got the chance to sleep in the same bed as Fuutarou, lucky Fuutarou!

It's really a tough race between Ichika and Miku for me. Nino still a pain in the ass. There isn't much reason to care about the other two. Yotsuba is cute in her pajama, tho.

Yet another week in this adaptation and they still miss the key detail that should have been introduced almost 3 weeks ago in this series regarding how Fuutarou wound up being the tutor of these girls. Debating on whether or not to just drop this shit and read the manga all the way through.
Don't believe the hype.

so when does Nino supposedly get good? because is still very irritating

the three stooges are still favorable to watch while Itsuki is still 50/50...her stubbornness (MC's as well) is very tiresome but she has her moments like when she was studying by herself

MC should just tell them all the truth even though Itsuki knows his situation...but then again we wouldnt have a series

i hope they keep the quality until last episode, particularly the art composition and keep off bad animation / derp face

Quite funny today's episode, Fuutarou has a quite complicated challenge and he already have two of the quintuplets that are complicating Fuutarou's attempts.
Before I loved Itsuki, but I think she's getting very stubborn, but it's also Fuutarou's fault, but the point is that Itsuki stays in the past, gets carried away by the first encounter with Fuutarou and now she wants him away when now He is willing to teach her, in other words this two need to swallow their pride and work together.
On the other hand, I find Nino more unpleasant and annoying, the worst thing is that now she knows that if they fail the exams, her father will fire Fuutarou, which Nino is very happy about.
Today all the girls had their spotlight, but the ones that shone the most were Yotsuba, Ichika (I'm starting to like her) and the beautiful and adorable Miku.
Ichika today proved to be the most mature of the sisters, I love that she helped Fuutarou to get along better with her sisters, she is also making him notice Miku, now she looks more relaxed.
Yotsuba today continues to show that childish and laid-back personality that she has and like a lot, in addition to looking super cute and adorable with that bear pajamas.
Miku in pajamas is super hot, that cleavage looks very nice, I love seeing her with her face blushed, Ichika keep teasing her with ideas to get the attention of the dense of Fuutarou, she also gave me a bit of pity when she said she did not fit in the likes of Fuutarou, but even so she won a head pat, which made her super happy, the same with Ichika, today the good girls received head pats, although Yotsuba did not have one. The end of the episode was spectacular, I suspected that Miku would return to her room, but even so it was very funny the reaction of Fuutarou and also very lucky to wake up with that beautiful girl next to him.

An okay episode, but can someone enlight me why Itsuki is crying tho, did Fuutarou words really hurt her so much?

And btw both of them really should swallow their pride and stop being stubborn, but as i can see at least Fuutarou wants to apologize and teach her meanwhile she stands still with her stubborness, i am curious how he handle her in the next episode..

And once again, i still can't stand Nino, many people said she is more likeable now in the manga but for now she is just an annoyance in this anime, still can't wait to see her progress as well..

it said from the begining, itsuki want to be teach by fuutarou itself but fuutarou ended decline, and when fuutarou want to teach him it's natural itsuki decline him as a instructor. itsuki in this episode seeing fuutarou just for money not by his will(maybe itsuki want to be teach not by money but his will but well... you know fuutarou circumstance and she know too)

Is the current waifu rankings like this?

3rd - Yotsuba
4th - Itsuki
5th - Nino

Coz I'm really shipping with Uesugi and Miku eversince that Sengoku stuff, especially after what happened at the ending... 😏

It was pretty obvious that Nino was going to find out about the ultimatum Futaro's facing, and now that she has it's going to be incredibly difficult for Futaro to do anything about it as al she has to do is refuse to study. More importantly though, the issues he and Itsuki are having need to be worked out if he's going to get anywhere with them all. At least he's making progress with the other three (though I'm sure Ichika trying to help Miku won't last too long based on her reaction on the balcony).

Just hoping that next week's episode doesn't create some silly drama out of Miku going back into the bed Futaro was sleeping in (I wonder if she did that on purpose or by accident?).

Imagine you are on the edge of cliff, and in front of you are bunch of foxes. That's what happen to Uesugi. Now he must do everything to save his job (and his family's hope, if you want more intense).

He already got 3 out of 5, the rest is the toughest. Made Nino know about it is just make it worse. What he will do then ?

Ichika and Miku now getting closer. Ichika now act as a cupid to make Miku closer to Uesugi, although herself is also develop feeling to him. See how mature she is ? That's 1+ to "Why I love Ichika" point.

Miku's development has been amazing. Ichika was like the best Wingwoman for Miku! Until Fuutaro patted her on the head and now looks like she's in the race for Fuutaro's heart.

Miku is still best girl. OPPOSITES ATTRACT! So for Miku being the complete opposite of Fuutaro's sister is a good thing!

The ending was a little predictable when Miku went to the bathroom, but it's SO GOOD!

This is a character driven manga so the mangaka dont insert random slice of life chaoter to extend it. Taking character development slow is one of the strong point of this manga
