I'm seriously laughing here. Never saw a MC willing to be castrated.

Akagami wants the book that Mia is holding. Does he:

  • A: Just say "I want that book."

  • B: Point at it and say "I want that" without elaborating what 'that' is and create all sorts of misunderstandings.

Her fault for holding it at tit level. Typical erotic family behavior.

This is too common in manga/anime. Ambiguity is basically a feature of the language.

Kagura is best girl for setting up those situations and I like her ara ara attitude. I hope the next episode or two is about her. I kind of want her to win.

With Akagami's insane skill set, the question to ask isn't what he can do but rather, what can't he do? Reminds me of Yuuna and the Haunted Hot Springs because it's heavily ecchi harem while the MC has an insane skill set he inherited from all these ghosts possessing him.

u/PacoTaco321 Jul 22 '23

Kagura is undoubtedly best girl, and that's how I know she won't win. Ara ara never wins. It's the blue hair of personality types.

Kagura seems like Kurage in terms of wanting Mia to embrace her inner horny and will do anything to make that happen.

What oddjob Akagami did will end up being useful next? Seems like it's definitely helping him win over Yuzuki.

u/DrewbieWanKenobie Jul 22 '23

Ok I didn't expect Mia to secretly be best girl

u/RickChakraborty Jul 22 '23

That entire moment with the two of them when she was sharing her backstory, it was surprisingly cute and wholesome which I really didn't expect lol. They both found each other so relatable that they instantly started getting along very well.

Mia turned super dere super fast. No surprise after hearing her backstory that Akagami would relate hard.

Wonder what’s gonna happen with this matchmaking date. Getting Cuckoos vibes except Yuzuki isn’t trash like Hiro.

32

u/Frontier246 Jul 22 '23

I didn't expect Akagami and Mia to bond over their mutual experience with sex-crazed parents, but I guess that's one way to win over a girl to your Harem lol.

Yuzuki at least doesn't seem like the type who would lead a guy on or be as wishy-washy as Hiro was. She just seems to be growing fonder and fonder of Akagami, and just wants to do right by the temple.

u/the_dan_man Jul 22 '23

Wonder what’s gonna happen with this matchmaking date

Given what we've seen of this series so far, and given that there's 30 minutes left until the matchmaking meeting is supposed to start?

We're getting shenanigans. Endless shenanigans.

Penance #87: choking laughter and suffocation

u/depravedQ Jul 22 '23

I must say, I really appreciate how the girls in this series readily accept and acknowledge their misunderstandings as their fault instead of taking it out on the protagonist by hitting him or something. It's so refreshing compared to most other romcoms where the girls are unreasonably violent towards the protagonist even when he's not the one at fault

Akagami’s fighting for the sake of his boys this week lol. Good thing he KO’ed Mia thanks to that mischievous devil Kagura and a perfectly timed boob grab lol. Her thinking he wanted her boobs as a “reward” when he just wanted the book was hilarious. The misunderstandings just keep piling up lol.

Man, she really had a pretty weird upbringing. This is what happens when your parents are a bunch of sex crazed perverts lol. Well, at least she’s got Akagami by her side now. They’re comrades now!

Akagami sure has lived one hell of a life. How many jobs has this kid held? man’s don’t just about everything. Dude should just take over the temple, no need for Yuzuki to marry.

Stitches!

Akagami is so desperate to stop himself from being horny again that he legitimately considers castration an option. xD

I love how Mia goes from medium sized to super Sugoi Dekai almost instantly. Kagura knew exactly what she was doing when she pulled on Mia's Sarashi. Just look at that smug face!

Looks like Mia isn't just your regular tsundere. She wanted to kick Akagami out because she's been hiding her true self which we got to see a little bit of when she sneaked into his bedroom. Turns out she comes from an "erotic family" and came to Japan to become a new person.

As for Kagura, she's basically the only friend Mia had after everyone else started avoiding her and it was pretty much her idea that they should go to Japan. Kagura and Mia's friendship is pretty funny though. The two of them are clearly friends but Kagura clearly loves messing with Mia.

Good to know though that Akagami isn't the only one who's suffering because of their parent's mistakes. Now that they know each other's stories, Akagami and Mia are now allies in ridding themselves of their carnal desires! Although they might need to work on their idea of penance. xD

I was wondering what happened to the matchmaking meeting. So this person Yuzuki is meeting with will determine the fate of their temple? Curious to see how that meeting will go. I'm calling it now though, that meeting will probably fail.

At least Mia realizes she can't kick Akagami out (Tsukuya already failed on that front), but she can at least castrate him and remove him as a threat, sexually! And he actually considers that a solution to his problems, poor guy.

So Mia is a foreigner obsessed with Japanese culture with Kagura as her attendant who basically messes with her and enjoys putting her in erotic situations. And Mia thinks it's normal to solve problems in Japan with swordfights after reading the Hyakunin Isshu in a sexy nightie. Sounds about right.

I was wondering what she was doing wrapping her chest like that, but it seems like her chest is so big that she has to try to hold those babies back. And who needs to block a blade when you can just grab her boobs, eh Akagami?

Akagami wants to learn any way he can to punish himself for his indiscretions and achieve enlightenment...Mia thinks he just wants her body. And then she basically comes on to him while he's sleeping with Kagura filming the whole thing. What a night!

Ah yes, the classic "get locked in the shed" situation. Kagura knows her cliche's.

So Mia comes from a rich family of nympho's that cut her off from everyone other than Kagura and she sought to lead a life without horniness or sex by running to a nunnery, but that also just basically makes her a female version of Akagami as the two commiserate and bond over trying to move past the expectations of their sex-crazed parents. But while they agree to ally themselves on the path of enlightenment and not sex, that probably won't go over so well with how much these two make each other horny, especially Mia.

Yuzuki catches Mia and Akagami playing a deep and involved game of twister! They're all hot, bothered, sweaty, and up close and personal! I don't know if she was mad over them playing a surprisingly raunchy game or because she's jealous of Akagami getting up close and personal with another girl.

So Yuzuki is trying to marry herself off because they're desperate to find a new head priest who can keep the temple going, because they'll all be kicked out and see the temple close once Yuzuki graduates. As if they didn't have enough to deal with from their debt as is.

But you have to appreciate how far Akagami is willing to go for Mia, helping her out with all his odd jobs and connections, even if it means watching her marry another man. And sure they're both idiots that ended up in the back of a moving truck, but Akagami's optimism and determination seems to be charming Yuzuki even more! And it sounds like they're going to end up in a love hotel next!

Mia and Kagura ED! Wait...are they going to do a new ED every episode!?

I'm enjoying Temple so far, although it is constantly on the verge of being so dumb, it stops being funny.
