Everything seems to be about points in this anime, even as simple as watching movies although it looks like there's an actual purpose.

Jirou and his wild fantasies started again and I have a feeling they'll reappear throughout this season, related to Shiori. Speaking of Shiori, it looks like she has some obvious feelings for Jirou.

Jirou and his over the top fantasies gave me PTSD of Kazuya from Rent a Girlfriend for some reason, good thing progress actually happens in this series.

Shiori is completely obvious about her feelings towards him but the anime is really selling how even more obvious the Akari x Jirou pair are so my condolences to her in the long run.

The art style is also growing on me little by little yet the colours at times are still a bit too much for me.

Pretty alright second episode and the pacing seems to be going pretty smooth as well.

Honestly now that we have some more focus on Shiori and her character all i have to say regarding the girls is that Akari is way more interesting than Shiori is, both of them are a bit stereotype so far but Shiori is way to timid and she is said as the pure girl type which just isn't that interesting.
Anyway it seems the main characters are getting feelings for each other which is nice to see the question is will the remain stubborn till the end and focus on their other love interests or will the admit their feelings for each other.

The storm part was nice since they did get closer.
As for the other couple pretty much what i expected their surroundings deem them a perfect match but that doesn't mean the are, things aren't always what they appear and that's especially the case with things that seem ideal.

This series is really well made! I love it!
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.

omg Shiori's character is so bland, boring, and annoying, she's painful to watch
The ending of the show is pretty much predictable but I'll keep watching for the vivid colors and Akari

What are the chances blu ray will uncensor this?

Also, the read haired girl is definitely lesbo for Shiori isn't she? It all makes sense.

>not into men.
>the one man you're into will most likely end up with Akari.
>end up with your girl buddy.

Akari's so cute, she was adorable when the lights went out. She looked hot too. Shiori taking care of Jirou was sweet and nice backstory. Akari's slowly falling for Jirou.

Man I'm so glad this show didn't jump off a cliff into a DUMPSTER FIRE this episode.
The plot is keeping me engaged and after getting to know the characters a bit more, Yes there are tropes but like which show doesn't.

I'm not expecting this show to be a subversion of the romcom genre and so far I'm liking where it's going.

I like the pacing and I'm so glad the MC is not a chicken. He's progressed a lot and seems like a charming enough guy.

Those first few minutes with electricity gone was a thing straight up taken from those super popular pornhub videos, I know. Also they get scored on how intimate they'll get with each other, right? Why not just take it to the next level, bet they'll get something even better than A rank.

Also dude.. atleast have a comeback when someone call you virgin-kun, or maybe he just doesn't like denying reality.

Bench-kun and getting friendzoned, pair made their appearance again.

I did NOT expect Liyuu's OP to be that colorful and whimsical.

Every dream that Jiro can get about Shiori, it feels like a guilt trip. But with Akari, it's reality. And on a cold, thunderous night, watching horror movies together doesn't really seem to work, so couple clothing at least does the trick. But when the blackout happened, the unthinkable also happened with Akari being afraid of lightning and the dark to cry her heart out. It's clear that she's scared, and in this moment, Jiro also dropped his guard to tell Akari that she's cute, but thankfully she's asleep.

Both Akari and Jiro are advancing well and above, but to see Minami and Shiori fall rock bottom, it's a legit cause for concern, and practically none of it mattered if only the both of them scored big. And this resulted in Jiro falling sick while Akari hangs out with her friends, but he gained a sudden surprise visit from Shiori, which being childhood friends, it's been a long time coming for Jiro, whom he wanted to confess to her in their early days. But this psuedo married life with Akari is causing Jiro to act irregularly with his desired partner, lunging out his feelings towards her.

Jiro is at a place where he knows Shiori's for him, but couldn't let go of Akari, and this is the same for both Shiori and Akari as well.
The feelings of the heart are confusing...

We saw some backstory of Jirou and Shiori and both of them love each other but they didn't confess to one another and it also looks like Akari's feeling toward Jirou is becoming stronger.
I give it 5/10.

This is a very very interesting plot and the characters aren't as bland as I first thought they were.
This episode gave shiori her side of the coin. It was basically her fault why he Yakuin drifted away but I also see why she strikes me the better of the 2 for now (although some say that on LN or Manga she becomes annoying). However for now I really liked her & I am siding on her.

Although I can see the change from Akari and see some glimpse of her good personality and her synchronicity with Yakuin getting fleshed out.

Interesting.. Looks like Minami and Shiori was not working at first glance. It might work some day but I got the feeling Minami will be that "rebound" guy.

Rebound guy huh. Wasn't thinking about it like that but I can actually see that happening

I feel like these feelings are just extremely rushed. Same typical rom/com nonsense all over again.

It's like some weird fusion of Toradora and RaG but with WAY better animation and color pallet.

This is nothing special so far. Honestly surprised it's not in the "6" zone

So much this, it’s feelings out of nowhere and we all know that pink is going to win. Honestly not even funny through 2 episodes

Love the focus on romance! And Mei makes her appearance! I hope she gets plenty of screentime in the anime. I'm still hoping that Shiori will pair up with Mei in the end, but I'm worried that Mei will be consigned to being the token gay friend.

I think the production team has done a great job with the adaptation, and it may be better than the original manga. The animation still feels poor at times and great at other times...

I love how we can already see Akari's feelings changing, her infatuation with Virgin-kun is so cute!

It's the 2nd episode and Watanabe seems to be falling for Virgin-kun already. Pity, I wanted to see her act like a tsundere for a little longer.

Shiori is so good. Unfortunately, she's the "childhood friend" type so it's highly unlikely for her to win in the end.

Ok, I can't the blame the MC for not confessing yet given what she said about being friends. It's more on her than him now. Also, it would be funny if they deducted points from MC for having Shiori take care of her since it can be considered "cheating".

Question is when the power went out why didn't the camera and point scorer go out too? Was this actually a test from the school?

This show and msg: the witch from mercury were 2 shows I was really looking forward to but they’ve become my least favorite of the season so far. It’s still too early so I’ll see how they progress. I’ve watched enough anime to know where this is going so it wouldn’t be fair to complain. My one minor gripe would be for Jirou to at least honor your childhood friend’s wishes to call her by her first name like he used to. He does on accident but he’ll revert back to not using her first name. I don’t know why it gets on my nerves but oh well.

It might be because most anime watchers does not generalize a series through stereotypes / or either prioritize above average animation over the story

Adaption was complete ass. They skipped like 20 chapters from the manga and went straight into exploring the idea of watanabe having feelings for jirou. All I can say now to anime watchers is that Please read the manga because the anime from this ep onwards in going to be complete ass cheeks.

Anime reminds me of Rent a Girlfriend too. idky, maybe cause the colorations and animation somewhat similar or the fact there's a love triangle, haven't watched much romance. Keep thinking this is Rent a Girlfriend without the cringe.
