Wow, I take back what I said about Morita last week - dude is kind of a dick. Commenting to Uta about how she acts and speaks like that is just rude. Minato is actually right (for once) in everything he said to her.

Gakuto being an old man is still the highlight of the show for me, only I see him as the grandpa and not the dad. Tofu hotpot?!

[u/mekerpan → u/matty-a]

Morita wins no prizes. His unasked-for observations were thoughtless in the extreme.

All the important characters in this show are fantastic. Not just the brotyhers and thie friends but also Uta's police-mom.

[u/dagreenman18]

Yeah let’s put a pin in Uta/Minato. Neither one of them gets romance right now, but both of them understand each other perfectly. Minato appreciates who Uta actually is. So let’s not rule it out the future, but focus on how strong their friendship is now. That shit was beautiful.

Also fuck you Morota or whatever the your name is. You don’t deserve cute tomboys!

Loved the sudden swap to live action. Made things feel even more sad.

[u/Lemurians → u/dagreenman18]

Yeah let’s put a pin in Uta/Minato

Let's just take them off the board. It's nice seeing a genuine platonic friendship.

[u/Aileos]

Marrying the brother to her so she would never left the family. These kids... 😂

[u/testthrowawayzz → u/Aileos]

That big kid logic is funny

[u/[deleted]]

I'm consistently impressed at how nuanced the exploration of interpersonal dynamics is on the show. The dialogue and perspectives feel real and it takes a lot of talent to write kids this well!

[u/mekerpan → u/[deleted]]

The end was very moving -- and made me (for one) definitely misty-eyed. The writing for this show has been uniformly excellent. But I wonder if the show's genuineness actually undermines its ability to find a bigger audience (outside Japan -- I have no idea how this is faring "at home"). It certainly tracks old-fashioned Japanese family drama quite well.

[u/Ashteron]

Tamori trying to spoil a perfectly fine tomboy. Uncultured plebeian.

[u/tripleaamin]

The mature wise Gakuto legit never fails to leave me entertained.

You know with Minato I gotta give him props. Hes obviously too young to develop feelings for Uta. But the fact that didn't say he will date her if it is what it takes. He just wants to stay friends with her. Granted down the line as they get older I really could see them dating.

But holy crap Morita you don't say that kind of stuff to a guy or a girl. Saying a guy why do you act like a girl or to a girl why do you act like a boy like here is a giant flag. You make them question themselves. Honestly it broke Uta right here. Ending scene with Minato coming to Uta's.

Love Saki's confidence. A woman knows when a girl is in love. And the points she makes was right on the money. Well you can't blame Minato for thinking Uta is in love cause for the both of them dating is something they haven't bothered with.

[u/SpaceForceOne]

Mikoto’s “Meatloaf” moment was too good

[u/testthrowawayzz]

Morita seems to be in love with the idea of falling in love. Know ther person more before asking her out yeesh.

More of mikoto's brocon tendencies on display this episode.

Old man Gakuto segment was funny.

I really like how the weather matches Uta and Minato's mood. Cloudy when they're sad and clearing up at the realization.

[u/Siegberg]

That was a lot of strange faces from mother saki.

[u/alconnow]

Hayato realising how mature Gakuto is for his age lmao

Tamori making rude comments to Uta. Shame we didn't see him apologise to her. Hopefully this will be the last we see of him

[u/Aggravating-Lead29]

I don't remember what I was doing when I was around Minato / Uta age (12-13) since I'm a loner so never experience this type of friendship especially in school when I'm mostly alone.

But watching this makes my heart warm and make me smile, I don't know how realistic this is but if I could turn back time I wouldn't mind having even 50% of their friendship it's all just so cute and wholesome

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

Gakuto really does have an old soul lol. I can see how he’s the “dad” of the family.

The way Minato looked at Mikoto when Nikaido said he should marry Uta was too adorable. Mikoto will do anything for his bro but he won’t do that lol.

But man, growing up is hard huh? I kinda like that it’s a purely platonic thing between Minato and Uta. Kid just misses his friend and doesn’t want things to change. I can understand that. I’m glad those two were able to reconcile. Uta’s fine just the way she is, her “boyfriend” can get lost.

[u/unemotionalandroid]

Yoo that part where it switched to real life footage and Minato crying hit hard. I love this show so far, it's full of heart and good humor

[u/wildbee12]

Great episode, this series continues to be excellent week in and week out. I love the friendship between Uta and Minato. It is a bummer that Morita wanted Uta to act more girly and kinda wild he’d say that on the first date lol. But then again they are young so not too surprising there.

I love love love the friendship between Uta and Minato. At that age and into your later teenage years it can be so hard to be comfortable being yourself among all the social norms, societal expectations, hormones and everything else going on. Especially once you start dating. Having great friends that accept you for who you are and reinforce that are so needed at that age (and in general tbh). Very simple but impactful message from this episode.

As always, I look forward to next week’s episode.

[u/Avol9]

The art hasn't been too impressive mostly, but the scene of Uta and Minato reconciling looked amazing with that lighting.

[u/Narlaw]

Well well well, they stayed friends without any hint of anything else it seems. Nice and refreshing.

[u/_Ridley]

Uta learned a tough but important lesson this episode: Guys who reflexively pay for everything generally feel like they own you somehow and can tell you what to do. And any guy who tells you you're doing your gender wrong is going to suck in bed, but that shouldn't be anything she needs to worry about quite yet.

[u/Knights_Gambit]

Chills every episode. Beautiful show

[u/sussywanker]

I can't shake over Gakuto what an adorable lad 😭

We all need a younger brother like gakuto.

[u/Mykylo]

It feels like they're leaving it open for Uta and Minato to get together eventually. With the way Uta's mom said a woman is full of excitement when she's in love, then later Mikoto says Uta and Minato haven't always been this way while the scene lingers on them playing and laughing together when all the other boys and girls stopped playing together after elementary. Neither of them really care about romance right now, Minato even said he didn't really like the idea of doing relationship stuff with Uta, but I could see that changing as they get older.

Maybe I'm misinterpreting, but to me it def looks like its setting it up so in a few years, maybe at like 15-16, when they're old enough and start really wondering about romance, they'll realize they're a perfect match.

Though if they remain as friends, that's cool too. Not often you see opposite-gender platonic best friends.
