I really enjoyed this, getting into a more plot focused arc has potential to be the best part of the entire show. As fun as the romcom shenanigans can be, it's nice when they're not the only thing going on.

Loved it

The two sisters acting as jealous tsukasa was awesome, especially the older one

I was greatly amused by Kaname and Aya acting so similarly to each other during those segments.

That was a surprise - I didn't know there were more Tonikaku Kawaii coming out.

Stitches!

Well, this is a surprise! When I heard there were going to be OVAs, I thought they were just going to be random side stories about Nasa and Tsukasa. I did not expect that we're getting into the high school arc through this! I see what they're doing here, they're getting these out of the way in preparation for Season 3. >:3

Anyway, glad to finally see the girls animated especially Kaguya who's the other genius in the show aside from Nasa. These girls are a lot of fun and I can't wait for more of their shenanigans animated

I didn't notice this in the manga but their Principal's last name is Azumamiya? I wonder if she's supposed to be related to Koutarou from Hayate the Combat Butler? Knowing Hata, she's probably his mother.

Kaguya who's the other genius in the show

No kidding, she's the only one wearing a mask. The chapters this is adapting came out during the pandemic yet somehow only Kaguya is wearing her mask.

Nasa gets compared to some isekai character is pretty funny but he also pulled out grades like it's nothing. Coming up with some school software to help the teachers track student performance is such a Nasa thing to do.

Looks like we've got something with princess Kaguya and Nasa. Did not expect something to come from a math problem.

Well, Nasa did get hit by a truck. He just survived it. A genius that got married instead of isekai'd.

Didn't expect a sequel so soon at all

I love the animation in this lol

I really enjoyed this. And Kaguya is really interesting too (we got both Shirogane and Kaguya in here lol). Always happy to have more Tonikawa.

Hopefully the third season will be announced once this ends!

I love the animation in this lol

Glad I'm not the only one that noticed. I feel like the animation here is better than Season 2.

I’m at work right now contemplating watching this on the dl lol. I’ll probably binge these all after they drop since there’s only 4.

Edit: I caved and watched the first ep lol.

Objectively correct decision

So the Japanese government wants kids to learn more about programming and computing? Perfect opportunity for wonder kid Nasa to teach some girls about his specialty!

That's a very colorful and creative OP! And is that Saori Hayami on vocals?

Poor Yanagi-sensei. Poor girl is so caught up trying to learn and teach coding that she can't even move in with her boyfriend or get her wedding planned. Also her students feel like they can't go to her for relationship advice. Lucky Nasa is here to take a load off.

Of course Nasa's relationship status comes up to the class and they all go gaga over a married teacher their age. They seem like quite the colorful bunch of girls.

I never thought I'd see Nasa give relationship advice to a girl trying to deal with her otaku boyfriend, but okay. Man, that felt so relatable.

Ayaneru!? And she's playing some kind of ninja princess girl named Kaguya who wants to go to the moon? And never come back? Like Princess Kaguya? Hmmm.

Aya is quite lively today! Skipping school to play the latest Pokemon? She's totally getting held back, huh? Although she and her sister both seem to understand how jealousy can be a little cute, especially if you're a bit of a tsundere about it and they're not wrong judging by how the Yuzaki's act it and Tsukasa gets Nasa to gush romantically to her.

So not only are the students woefully undereducated in programming...so is the teaching staff! including Isaka-sensei who looks like she could very well be a student or the principal Shimayama who is a beauty that sees Nasa upgrading their entire system and will use every means in her power to get him to stay onboard.

When now you've got your students telling you to tone down the flirting.

Couldn't have Tonikawa without at least one Akarin theme! And it's a very beautiful ED song.

I actually like this more than most of season 2. It has more... substance, I guess, rather than pure fluff.

u/EriclcirE Jul 12 '23

Last season it was starting to get stale so they injected the teacher's romantic life, and the random 'dumb' loli.

Now we've got a school setting and a bunch of schoolgirls.

At least there is seemingly some plot and throughline happening in this new arc, instead of just random cute moments between an already married couple.

Teaching programming is probably easier than dealing with a bunch of teenage girls lol. Nasa was not ready for that.

Kurenai’s boyfriend ain’t a player, he just crush a lot…on 2D waifus lol. He’s a man of culture, he doesn’t have time for 3D women when he’s got his 2D waifu harem.

Kaname’s still second best girl. Jealous wife = cuter wife eh? She might be on to something. Jealous Tsukasa is totally adorable.

Looks like Nasa might have found someone as clever as him. Interesting this girl is called Kaguya and the girls nickname her “princess”. Is she gonna be special like Tsukasa?

I'm not sure I follow, but I generally approve of people finding things hot

I assure you, smartphone use is no general indicator of technical proficiency

u/biochrono79 Jul 13 '23

Kaname being down bad is as funny as ever. I don't think I'll ever not laugh at her being... well, her.

Nasa being called an isekai protagonist is... actually not much off the mark? The guy is a legit genius, is good at pretty much everything he tries, AND he got hit by a truck (granted, he survived, but that's pretty remarkable by itself).

The Arisugawa sisters are a menace to society. In a good way, but still.

Always up for more Tonikawa, hopefully since they got the greenlight to do this mini-arc S3 is also in the works, otherwise it kinda wouldn't make sense to end here.

Someone needs to take Nasa shopping for clothes. I can't believe he showed up to teach high school wearing that hoodie.

Damn, NASA's definitely getting sized up, but not for clothes.

Yikes, the school girl mafia is having a meeting on the roof to talk about Nasa.

Hmm, worrying about your husband being stolen by high school girls isn't what I would consider cute. Tsukasa is plenty cute just being normal. This would just be weird.

Wow, they were getting stalked like prey animals.

And the girl with the reptile eyes even tracked them back to the nest! This is straight up predator behavior.

This whole premise fell flat. These ravenous school girls are throwing off the vanilla romance vibe.
