Good to see Haruo spending more time with Oono together. Almost felt like a date between them.

Heh, I see this show is still using its clever usage of video game narration and fictional characters. Only 2 more episodes left now.

Guile no, that's not your wife.

Now they dealt with the Faneffu in their hearts, they can release the Faneffu in their pants.

Great episode!

It was dofinitely a date between them, its amusing to see how much they evolved as a couple, Oono is less agressive and more cuter than before, it was really awesome to hear her laughing since we still dont know her voice, but it was like a voice teaser xD

They sleep in same bed, both wanted that, obvious, and is always adorabel to see Oono blushing!

But after that much romantic moments, i am affraid of the ending since we dont know if she will really travel to LA, i am affraid of next two episodes feels that probably will make me cry xD

So many "hnnnngh!" moments throughout the whole episode.

It's amazing how a character with literally no dialogue is so damned endearing. What I'd love though is for her to finally speak in the finale, it would feel like such a payoff!

It would totally be nice if Akira would utter something so sweet at the end, then I would say 10 on the rating ^^

The date was... a gamers date, it didn't have those typical moments, but it had its own speciality nonetheless. I just wish one of them would be bold enough to close the gap, after all, they have limited time for each other. I'm really intrigued to how they're going to confess to each, or else are they going to go with the timeskip thing.

Can't wait though for more moments though, the bed moment was cute.

Dynamite Cop!! Such a great game! But I didn't knew about the arcade version, which is great! The path looked the same like the Sega Dreamcast. I also smiled when Haruo mentioned the Game Boy ^o^ Good memories!

Oohhh, I see some great progress in their relationship! I never have guessed they would have to sleep together like this. Akira's room next door is hunted by a ghost and Haruo is a good guy to let her sleep in his room because of it ^^ cute! They have leveled up ;)

Great episode!

With how this episode went, I think we will be getting a different (better) ending with the anime than manga

i almost thought they were gonna pull the "she'll leave him by himself" gimmick when they had two separate rooms...especially when the focus was all on Haruo in his room

Zangief turning into Sakura in the scenario tho...Chun-li woulda made more sense imo lol

Such a sweet episode! Oono is starting to slowly show more emotions but it's difficult to comprehend what she's going through at the moment with that newly looming issue weighing on her mind I'm sure.

God, and then comes those final moments. Please realize, Haruo!

Haruo reflecting on their relationship was so touching, please let their be happiness for these two! "Is this even Japan?" bit got me lol'd up xD, on another note. I didn't expect Oono to take the assertive there and tickle Haruo. And takoyaki xD.

Only 2 more episodes to go! Can't wait to see how this'll end!

Will the anime adapt the final chapters of the manga? I don't wanna read the source since it might spoil the anime for me.

I have no recollection of Oono's laughter but damn is this nice to finally hear a part of her voice (at least) than her usual murmuring.

I do hope so! Otherwise they would need some OVA which wouldn't surprise me.

The battle between Haruo and Oono, to leave or not to leave, to confess or not to confess, as part of their final date of farewells.

There they go to Osaka for dates and such, but no matter what it's clear that Haruo has lost his touch with the arcade while Oono is going for gold as always. To make the experience sweeter, sleeping together (for what could be their first AND last time).

Anticipating the last 2 episodes...

I hate it when only Haruo talks, and talks, and talks... and keeps talking...
Coupled with the mute Akira it felt terrible.

At least the story moved along nicely.

Only two more EPs left. Looking forward to how this would end

Haruo's monologues are starting to get on my nerves. :D

Christ, it's fine to show how they relationship changed from 20 eps ago using vg/chars comparison and how they want to settle the "score" with THE fighting game and where everything started (their relationship too), but this shit is really dragging way too much for what it actually is (a decent/serviceable love story)

Did Oono smash the picture after seeing the talisman or did the picture just fall then she saw a the talisman hidden inside it? Confusing...

Ah, a kappa, gelatinous things and ghost at the beginning lmao.

Oh, I was able to recognize more games from that time like World Heroes and Art of Fighting. One day of practice before the official match. They're a good couple when Oono is not beating Haru.
