Welp, Seo's ideas in a nutshell...Haruto finds a bra in the house because why not. The girls' reaction is what you'd expect. Same with that bath scene except on TV (I'm guessing BD/DVD versions removes the shitty censors).

I'm not sure which character they're building on the most but at the most, it seems to be Hayato since no individual girl is getting development yet. I guess I like Akane more slightly than the others.

Well we’ve variety in our harem, with Riho and Shiragiku being the older ones, then Akane and Ouka of the same age and finally Ami being the youngest. Though as far as physical attributes go, they all pretty much on the same footing… maybe Shiragiku has the lead but we doing good on that front, so nothing to make a fuss about. Anyways, again starting things with same old panty flashes, bathroom encounters.. and everything which comes as a part and parcel of this deal, which is good to see, as it was this way in the source too. So yeah, retain them. But get rid of that white line lol.


Now Hayato has decided to run the cafe on his own, so learning a thing or two about making coffees and all has indeed come. Though he sucks, so who better than Akane to learn from. He learned but he still sucks, unsurprisingly. And that isn’t the only thing though, as he can be witty but he knows close to nothing about greeting people. But hey flashing panties will help him to learn those things anyway.. right?

If the first encounter with our girl gang was not enough of a shock (and a life experience) for our stern main-kun, in today's episode, he learns that they ... indeed are modern women. I am honestly surprised that the cafe is still standing ...

And now, they have a cafe owner who ... to be honest isn't any better. Should have sold it (or turn it into a brothel) till you still had a chance, bro.

Hey, or just open five onlyfans accounts.

The 5 high school girls' introductions are in order, though they're just all one collective mind of being lazy jinxes.

Hayato's not amused that his grandmother has been basically feeding them free treatment until her death, and though Ono would be the one to offer some help, it's the owner himself who has to face their atrocity, though he would eat his own karma after dealing the delicacy case of girls' underwear. A short family scuffle with Ono, and family's as what would to be expected...with little insecurities in-between.

The pre-opening with Hayato being confident that he can follow his grandma's footsteps in making coffee, and as expected, it fails to hit the mark of being sellable from Akane's viewpoint, which she is able to replicate his grandma's coffee making technique. The courtesy visit with Riho to reopen the business of the Familia café, with the shrine visit to pray to his grandma being the most important aspect, Hayato's feeling a bit cocky in the head, while Riho goes on a rant about him not being able to meet the expectations to render the cafe's shutdown. But if there is some motivation, Riho flashing her panties at him, it seems that Akane's not the only one who is taking him fancy.

Development for now feels slow, but that's to be expected for Seo Kouji.

Classic enter the bath trope twice in one episode, oh boy. Hayato definitely lost his cool quite a few times as well, but he's learning from the girls and growing as a shop owner and person.

This one had many nice moments from Kiku who wants the best girl title fr to Riho scoring with panties. Akane #1, tho. Nothing you can do against bias.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

We got a few pants shots that was nice.

the show's alright. i don't like that hayato is always getting crap from the girls though. it's not unreasonable for him to want them to help with chores. also ofc he wouldn't know how to make coffee or run a business when he's never done it before. and they walk in on him but then he's the one that gets beat up? if i was hayato i would've kicked half of them out already

Tomboy best girl? I loved she and Hayato’s little coffee interaction. Wasn’t too over the top and anime-y. I like how the girls actually have some substance to them. Even though you’ve got the fanservice and ecchi stuff, they’re much more than that. Like how pigtails scolded him for not bowing and how he was basically being disrespectful to business partners.

The only issue I have is the girls being assholes at the beginning of the episode. Like it’s totally natural that Hayato would expect them to do chores and pull their weight in the house? Yet they’re acting like he asked for something unreasonable.

Hmm the girls sure have quite the age range and quirks. But leaving all the chores to the gran really was pretty bad of them. The first thing they should have done was decide on who handles the laundry after all. Shiragiku really suits the mother role within the group of girls. Giku's manga corner was pretty fun though kinda unexpected. Hayato really needs to learn how to bond with people. Well at the very least Riho knows how to use her looks to her advantage. But it was a good lesson to Hayato in the value that comms play in forging bonds with people. Its good to see that there's more to Riho than being ditzy. Overall a fun ep that did well to expand upon Giku, Akane and Riho. Though they really are laying on the ecchi moments thats for sure.

Good ep to like the girls
But even if i read the manga it feels weird to listen them saying indirectly that they killed the grandma with a lot of work that the grandma had
Even that i liked the ep
Is being a good adaptation and i was asking for a decent one so i'm happy

As much as i want to ignore the inconsistent animation it's pretty much there the entire episode....character faces look weird on a lot of frames . Other than that it was good episode riho teaching hayachii on how to treat other shopkeepers and with a bit of fanservice at the end .

I really didn’t appreciate the episode 2, have some ecchi is not bad but not like that. The story didn’t move from ep 1.

I don’t have a lot of hope for the next one…

Yes, they love to put fanservice in, huh.

It seems that the story will not have a very complicated plot, therefore, I don't think it will evolve much, it will depend on the next episode if I continue it or not.

Poor Hayato is on the receiving end of Ouka fan service when it wasn't really his fault especially when it ends with getting beaten up by Ami. At least Shiragiku was trying to help. Seems like Hayato has a lot to learn about running a business and making good coffee which he can learn from Akane and Riho before the soft opening of the Familia cafe.

This episode really showed the best and worst of these girls lol. I think Ouka and Ami were the only two who didn’t have anything to redeem themselves, Ami I’m a bit more lenient with since she has blue hair and is also the biggest clutz of the harem but Ouka was consistently mean and never had anything meaningful to say to Hayato, besides that glorious butt shot lol, but knowing this I’m betting she has the best development if past tsunderes have taught me anything lol.

As for Kiku, Akane and Riho, while they had some rough moments they also came around. Kiku when she’s not drunk is just really sweet and was honoring Hayato’s grandma’s wish of wanting them all to eat together, Akane ended up teaching Hayato how to make coffee properly and also called him cute which won her some points, and Riho covered for Hayato during their visits and taught him afterward that there’s more to running a cafe, and you can’t forget her intentional fanservice as a reward afterward lol, can’t get mad at her for that. And what a damn good ED that was, loved the art of all the girls and the song was great.

And damn the crunchyroll comments were funny to read this week, so many folks dropping this show and wanting Hayato to kick the girls out, I say good riddance to those folks lol. And damn it looks like this won’t be 24 episodes after all, but I’m still looking forward to the next 10 episodes!

Good episode, some development from a couple of girls and Hayato. It's messed up how Ami beat him up twice when her and Ouka walked in on him while he was taking a bath (but apparently Ami isn't very bright, guess brawn or martial arts and no brains lol).

I did like how Riho gave some good advice with dealing with business partners which Hayato took to heart and that reward... nice. Shiragiku is probably the friendliest girl and Akane with teaching him to make coffee 👍

Another fun episode. Surprised by the amount of ecchi... in a good way.

Shiragiku is still my best girl, Akane is up there too, and then I also like Ami.... minus unfairly beating up Hayato. Ouka seems like the typical tsundere that will grow on me eventually and then there's Riho... I don't know about Riho.

I know it's a harem "comedy" so I shouldn't ever get my hopes up but would it kill the industry to produce one that doesn't have cliché cookie-cutter personalities who are physically and verbally abusive for no reason?
Honestly the only reason I'm looking forward to episode 3 is so I can say I gave it a fair shot before dropping it.

A lot of crunchyroll comments are really annoyed at these girls; fully understandable, of course. But I don't think this hurdle will last more than a couple episodes, and I'm sure they'll be less of a pain in the ass once they get the cafe back up and running. Besides, already they're showing signs of warming up to him- except Ami though, who clearly is dumb asf and still walks into the bathroom when Hayato had said he put the sign up that time. But everyone else is actually coming to be alright. The shy timid one was nice to Hayato, the "blonde chick" taught him how to make the coffee like his grandma, the red-haired one, well, ok maybe nothing happened between them yet other than getting kicked in the face by her. And last but certainly not least, pigtails here actually voluntarily showed Hayato her panties as a reward. Definitely wasn't expecting that. Quintessential Quintuplets could never. Looking forward to more spicy ecchi moments ngl.

Ami (when Hayato forgets to put 'Bath in use' sign): *attacks Hayato*

Also Ami (when Hayato already put 'Bath in use' sign): *attacks Hayato again*

But seriously, I hate those kind of girls who attack men FOR NO REASON (most Tsunderes do). So WHERE IS THE JUSTICE?!

Male anime fan (after watching that scene): Hmmm... women! ☕️

All male anime fans (after watching World's End Harem): *laugh so hard and sip coffee*

Hayato may seem a dick at first, but he certainly owns up his mistakes and that's why I like him so far. 

Akane steals it for me, the looks and her "cool" personality makes her immediately my favorite. Riho is also pretty cute. Ouka so far reminds me of Nino and tbh not liking her so far so hope she gets a development like Nino got.

Great episode!  This series helped me fill the hole after Mahiru finished her series.

Now, there are five girls who are lovely to watch!

Personally, I can't vote for any of the girls just yet. I'd rather make it a happy ending for all five girls.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to more of this!

P.S. There are like a lot of lucky P. shots here and there, and it's just interesting that there are still some series that have them, which was... okay.  Though too much of it just makes it annoying, however, this time it's exactly what this dense MC needs.

It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

I really like how Hayato owns up to his mistakes and learns from them. We also got Akane and Riho starting to see Hayato in a positive light, which is nice. Akane best girl so far, but Shiragiku best nice girl, also a freak in the sheets ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.
