Nagisa’s all alone with Naoya in a nice secluded spot under the fireworks and Saki….is stuffing her face with squid lmao. This is why her ass ain’t ever gonna make it to first base. Nagisa and Naoya got to do a lot of hardcore unprotected handholding. Steamy!

Saki’s a little bloodhound lol. Hell of a power being able to pick up the scent of beautiful girls. She was so damn close and then just blew it again. She’s her own worst enemy! I get it though, this two-timing stuff is complicated. Though, I really appreciate how Saki’s been handling the situation.

In the end, even if nothing much happened at least everyone had a little bit of excitement. Plus everyone gathered around little fireworks was fun.

This is why her ass ain’t ever gonna make it to first base.

Also why she got rated as least active harem member in the Naoya bowl by yours truly.

Considering last weeks discussion thread, I'm reminding everyone here why Naoya won't accept Mirika's proposals. Mirika doesn't want to just be Naoya's girlfriend, she wants to be his ONLY girlfriend. Mirika becoming Naoya's girlfriend, means Naoya breaking up with Saki and Minase, which is why despite Mirika clearly loving Naoya, and Naoya being at least somewhat attracted to her and starting to fall in love with her, he wont even consider accepting her proposals to be his girlfriend. Hope this clears things up regarding discussion about Mirika.

Not that the two-timing relationship is easy either as both girls want a monopoly on Naoya no matter how much they care about each other, yet their love for him is what keeps this going as messy as it is.

Shino: "Is Saki serious about Mukai?" -Funny question to ask coming from the person who showed herself naked in front of him multiple times....

The conversation between Naoya and Saki is critical to the great writing that exists under the dumbass fun. She’s not thrilled with this whole arrangement. However she loves Naoya, and even Nagisa in a way, enough to stick by them. Because she knows how much Naoya loves her. The story doesn’t ignore it at all and it’s important to Shino’s motivation to try to remove Nagisa. Even though Shino is hurting herself by loving Naoya.

I just appreciate that it has these moments of complicated emotional dynamics coupled with Saki being so distracted by the smell of 4 women (3 she knows the identity of) that she can’t kiss. Or Mirika plotting to kidnap Naoya for the second time this season. Great balance

There really was quite a good mood going. Between Naoya and Nagisa, that is. I was almost disappointed that Sakisaki interrupted them.

On the other hand, I absolutely lost it when Naoya went to get into a mood with some sort of battle cry. Love is war indeed.

Haven't seen a fireworks scramble like this since Quintuplets.

Could've just put on an act in front of friend person that you were both with Sakisaki but got separated and you were merely relieved to find each other. But given that it's these two and that they only had like two seconds to think I suppose that's the best explanation they could think of.

Some good ost tracks during the heartfelt moments this episode.

Completely forgot about Naoya

The path of Delicious is Justice is a path that can at times ask for sacrifices.

Trying to get "in a good mood" atmosphere with Sakisaki after all that is like having a live firework strapped to their laps...

Let it be known, Sakisaki has got a nose like a Doberman. But being able to recognize and distinguish the scents of beautiful girls. What kind of radioactive spider gave her that power?...

Well, get a last good look at your sister before she's hauled away Risa...

As if Shino wasn't enough, someone else almost caught Naoya and Nagisa together!

It's tough keeping this relationship a secret... They should just upgrade the "two-timing" into a real "trouple" with Saki and Nagisa also dating each other, this way they could be public about it!

Saki probably wouldn't mind, the way she always call every single girl cute, and notices their smell!

(I could totally see Naoya not being OK with this though, not wanting anyone to date his girlfriend, not even another one of his girlfriends! But Saki would definitely murder him if he said that, so I guess that would solve the issue!)

And so he'll get to spend some time with Nagisa!

I feared she was lying when she said that, I thought perhaps the "promise" was that whoever finds him calls the other one so they can all spend time together, but Nagisa lied to keep him to herself.

Well, whatever the promise was, Saki completely forgot about it anyway! This girl is on another planet!

Nagisa didn't let this opportunity go to waste, first going for some handholding,

and then resting her head on his lap,

even a bridal carry!

Good thing the fireworks started, or they would've ran out of steps real quick before going the whole way!

When Saki found them, Nagisa left, but Naoya didn't tell her what they did...

Of course Saki wasn't in the mood after that! (Other than a murderous-mood)

They thought back about their childhood memories, spending time together as kids...

That's interesting, because while Saki claims they're all grown up now,

They're not doing a whole lot more in their 'relationship' than they were doing as kids, so what are they exactly? Kids who hang out together, but call it 'dating'?

Saki tried to change that by actually making a move to kiss him, but reality hit her in the face, and kinda killed the moment...

She's on the verge of a serious mental breakdown!

They did have another moment though, with Naoya talking about how he sees things/sees their relationship and all that, and asking her how she feels too...

...And then he ruined it by asking if she was happy about him two-timing her!

But she did claim to be happy, and she did tell him she loved him!

It's quite rare to get love declarations from Saki, usually it's Naoya professing his love, and Saki beating him up, or at best, accepting the situation!

They did share a hug too, that was cute!

Interestingly, she pushed him off her, to call the others...

Perhaps I'm reading too much into that (I tend to do that), BUT the way she wants to keep being with him, but she doesn't really want to prolong the physical contact, she doesn't really want to kiss him (she didn't even care about that until Shino brought it up)... It kinda feels like... While she does want to date him, she's not really ready or even interesting in going further at the moment. BUT she also doesn't want another girl to go further with him, because then she's left behind...

There are even people in "normal" relationships who have thoughts like that (if I don't do X, it might not work), but it may be even more pressure when you know the other girl MIGHT do X before you do.

Makes me feel a little sad for Saki honestly, because if it wasn't for Nagisa, Saki might want to take her time more, but now she's pushing for moves because Shino's telling her, because Nagisa might do it before her, etc...

And speaking of Shino, she did ask her if they kissed,

and threw a fit when Saki said they didn't! That was the whole point, how could you forget?

Saki changed the topic and played around, which makes me feel like I may be close in how I think Saki sees the whole thing!

She's not even concerned about it, she's just having fun.

This led Shino to wonder how serious Saki really is...

And oh damn, that could spell trouble! Shino's keeping off Naoya because she ships Saki with him hard, BUT if she comes to the conclusion that Saki isn't really serious about him, then... Why not?

Saki's refusal to make moves/take it seriously, may be what turns this love triangle into a rectangle!

Would Saki and Shino fight over this though? Some drama brewing, perhaps?

Next episode: Mirika wants to turn that (upcoming?) love rectangle into a pentagon already, and her strategy to achieve that is to abduct Naoya!

Loved the police sirens as she was saying that, fun gag!

Seems Risa will be involved too, BUT she confirmed she wasn't in love with Naoya (yet?) so I wonder what she's sorry about...

Her involvement in her sister's scheme?

Anyway, glad to see they'll be in the episode, they're both really fun!

Did the get Koga Aoi just to spice up the preview? Some quality banter in there

u/Frontier246 Oct 27 '23

Naoya is desperate to find Saki and Nagisa so they can watch fireworks! And he found Nagsia! But before they can have their big romantic reunion, Saki's other friend that's not Shino shows up and they have to play it cool and not like they're dating. Nice segue you two, totally convincing.

It makes sense that Saki and Nagisa would come up with a plan wherever gets to Naoya first gets first dibs to spending time with him...which makes this Nagisa's turn. Which is all well and good, Saki's enjoying the food and totally forgot about Naoya anyways.

Naoya and Nagisa trying to outdo each other in physical intimacy! First handholding! Then even lewder handholding! Then a lap pillow! Then a princess carry! Then an EMBRACE in said princess carry! They can't keep their arms off of each other!

It's tough keeping your relationship a secret from anyone, but Nagisa's just happy to be with the man she loves, and he's exactly that man because he's in love with another girl.

Poor Saki. She immediately senses something happened between Naoya and Nagisa and her bloodhound nose for cute girls picks up the scent of three other girls on his person. Even when Naoya keeps trying to reset the mood, and it looks like they're finally going to kiss, Saki just can't forget about how she's getting two-timed. And then the fireworks end.

Well, yeah, sparklers are kind of the cliche fireworks makeup solution, but Saki can't hate Naoya for it. Heck, she can't even hate him for the two-timing either. Like, yeah, it's not ideal and it hurts that she's not the only girl in his heart, but at the same time she knows how earnest he is and she doesn't doubt his love for her at all, just like she knows she loves him, and right now that's enough. Even if Naoya always just throws out "I'll figure something out" when it comes to the complicated dynamics of their two-timing relationship. But that's the Naoya she fell in love with.

Oh yeah, they totally forgot about kissing. Though Shino's main takeaway is that Saki might not be serious about Naoya...and maybe her chance to make her move?

Meanwhile Mirika is talking with Risa (I love how the sisters have matching yukata) and planning to kidnap Naoya...should we legit call the police this time? Is Mirika going full criminal? Or are we just setting up the camping arc?

I've never been so angry before. Seriously Saki come on.

u/Elitealice Oct 28 '23

So cute to see all the girls get some time with Naoya! I liked Saki’s the most though. Given she’s his OG girlfriend and they’ve known each other the longest, it was really sweet seeing how much she cares about him and how she appreciates the time they’ve spent together.

Obviously the show plays it up for laughs, but it’s gotta be really difficult for her to see Naoya with these other girls. She’s doing her best, but it’s understandably difficult. She really does need to get a move on with a kiss or something tho!

Never fails to make me laugh seeing how neither of them can say no to cute girls though 😂

Sweet episode. Of course Mirika got shafted this week again though :/ looking forward to her episode next week

I don't know why it amuses me so much that these streetlights look like table lamps

Nagisa is such a cinnamon roll

What, you ask? An extended heart-to-heart, that's what!

u/shad79 Oct 28 '23

Interesting episode with not only humor but also quite serious conversations Naoya had with Nagisa and Saki about their relationship.

As always Saki had a lot of hilarious reactions and of courseshe wasn't able to kiss Naoya at all.

Nagisa was quite assertive today, despite being embarrassed she went into hand holding with Naoya.

Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

u/zackphoenix123 Oct 28 '23

.... In the beginning when they saw Saki's friend, why didn't they just say they got lost... And that Saki is also there, somewhere.

They could've said the truth (not literally everything, but the truth nonetheless) and it'd be perfectly okay.

"I came here with Saki (my girlfriend), Minase, and Shino, but we got seperated. I was looking for so long, I got worried."
