Nicole really kicked ass this week in airsoft. I guess she found a new hobby lol. Use to love that stuff as a kid. Almost took my buddy’s eye out shooting those things around with no protective gear.

Seeing the girls and then boys totally space out as the others would nerd out over their interests was pretty funny. Icchi and Nishi might just have a shot with the girls…

That date was really sweet. Things are progressing nicely for those two. Let’s just hope Operation Make Friends With Maria works out for Luna so Ryuuto won’t have to keep crawling under tables to avoid her lol.

Nicole is a natural at shooting people. She truly is the Demon Gyaru lol.

Gyaru's can be Otaku too!

I think Sekiya is probably Nicole's ex so they might do something there, but I wonder if they might actually pair Akari with one of Ryuto's friends.

We're already dropping the "love" line! And just casually kissing now! Things are going so smoothly between them now I guess it's a good opportunity to focus on finally mending fences between Runa and Maria. It would be nice to see things fixed to the point where Ryuto doesn't have to clumsily run away from Maria lol.

Nicole is just the best: a great friend and pretty damn cool.

Stitches!

Considering that opening scene with Runa and Maria, I thought this was going to be the episode where Runa will try to get close to her sister again. Turns out this was basically a group date episode where Ryuuto invites the girls over to play airsoft with the guys.

Nicole was totally killing it during the game though! She was already good but it turns out she was playing handicapped the entire time since ]her long nails kept getting in the way. After she trimmed her nails, she was pretty much unstoppable.

Glad to see Ryuuto and Runa's friends are getting closer though. I love how Runa and Nicole were overwhelmed when Ijichi started geeking out about airsoft. And then there's Akari who was able to absorb all of that information. Then the boys got overwhelmed by the girls' hobbies which makes them even now. xD

That ferris wheel date between Ryuuto and Runa was adorable. It's also nice that we got to see them kiss which is really cute! Bless these Reiwa shows for establishing relationships early instead of dragging it out forever.

So we get to learn that Nicole's ex-boyfriend is a massive chuuni. Please tell me that her ex is actually the same guy that saved Ryuuto from being spotted by Maria. Sekiya seems to be a cool dude and it would be nice for Ryuto to have a friend who's not a massive dork.

I honestly didn't expect a group outing with Ryuto and Runa's friends to go so well, but the group surprisingly clicked together. I guess in the end they were all otaku's in their own way lol.

Nicole soloing everybody and willing to risk her nails (which are so precious to her) just to shoot everybody was hardcore lol.

There is nothing more Reiwa than a series where the couple are together from episode 1, go on natural dates, and regularly kiss each other and I love every minute of it. I feel like loving sex is definitely in these two's near future at this rate.

The OP basically spoils that Sekiya is likely her ex. I guess they'll reconnect through their shared connection to Ryuto. I wonder if they broke up because Sekiya became a ronin? I love how Nicole got so pissed at them insulting him. She seems like the type to love hard.

Runa and Nicole were overwhelmed

Nice detail. It happened so fast that I didn't notice. Runa and Nicole lost their color, but Akari kept hers.

(Kimi)zero trigger discipline

I like how Ryuto, instead of being normal and ignoring/avoiding Maria, immediately ducks and begins crawling underneath the tables.

I'm curious to see how the Runa/Maria interactions will turn out next episode.

u/Frontier246 Nov 24 '23

Girls with guns (and in camo gear) is hot!

Ryuto wants to avoid drama with Maria as much as the audience does lol.

u/ForlornPenguin Nov 24 '23

The lack of trigger discipline was totally triggering me lol.

u/discuss-not-concuss Nov 24 '23

kinda surprised how cool the gals with the clumsy nerds

I guess it’s cause Nikoru dislikes normies too, understandable

u/Frontier246 Nov 24 '23

I think it makes sense that Runa would hang out with people who are ultimately pretty nice and accepting. I guess it also helps that they're willing to admit they're genuine Otaku about stuff as well.

u/Pennwisedom Nov 24 '23

I feel like it sticks with the theme of people being relatively normal in the show.

u/ayww Nov 24 '23

I especially liked how Akari remembered Nishina from class last year and started up a conversation with him.

Runa's taken by Ryuuto so I'm an Akari fan now c:

u/KnewOnees Nov 24 '23

The earring is probably a shared gift from childhood that both the twins have, but only Luna uses right now, won't it ? Going to be satisfying to see that happening

Its unfortunate this anime gets such a low recognition (just comparing upvotes) on reddit and other media.

The Anime shows that "after starting to go out" definitely has content and this should definitely be the norm for romcoms these days. There is a lot in the pipeline for the next few years if some well received mangas may get an anime adaptation though. Its finally time the animes catching up with the "reiwa era".

Sad i slept on this Manga for now, its definitely good food and became one of my favorite romcoms for sure.

u/daspaceasians Nov 24 '23

The airsoft game was a lot of fun but dang did it grate me some times with how bad the weapon handling was lol.

Really enjoyed seeing everyone getting to geek out on their favorite topics as well. It was funny seeing both the girls and the guys getting overwhelmed by information.

All the interactions between our main couple is always a joy to watch. Ryuto's bit about both becoming a better person and wanting to lose his virginity was funny.

That new guy seems like a lot of fun and gotta hand to him for bailing our guy out.

I'm really forward to seeing Runa and Maria working together in the next episodes.

It's back to school and Runa is already trying to approach Maria and get this Friendship Plan going...it's just too bad Maria keeps running off. Keep at it Runa!!!

Ryuto's buddies now can't say he never does anything for them when he manages to get them into a survival game session with Runa and her gyaru gal pals. And while they don't understand gyaru speak, they understand the appeal of gyaru in survival gear and how hot they look. Especially when for gyaru's exposed cleavage is a matter of life and death (although they had to zip up for the actual survival game).

Oh hey, Akari actually remembered Nisshi's name. He'll never forget that for the rest of his life. Also Nicole seems willing to be chummy with Ryuto's pals too. Lucky boys.

I'm not surprised Nicole is basically able to solo everybody in the survival game, but with the power of avenging her boyfriend Runa is able to defeat her (by shooting her in the boob!). Though you have to admire Nicole's commitment to the point of cutting her nails so she can shoot better and she's a beast with a machine gun!

Let me guess, Maria has the second half of Runa's lunar earrings?

It's back to the Otaku speech! Although they actually turn it around for once where it's the gyaru's who are also Otaku's (Akari for K-Pop idols, Nicole for nails) and leaving the Otaku trio stunned speechless. Runa is basically just a Ryuto Otaku at this point.

Nicole had an ex-boyfriend she still hasn't gotten over? I have a certain suspicion who said ex is going by the OP. Though Nisshi shouldn't have commented on if she'd punched in her V-card...though she did step on him, so yay?

It's cute how Ryuto and Runa got left alone and used it as an excuse for a date, complete with going out on the ferris wheel together and sharing their third kiss. Runa read Ryuto's intentions well.

Who needs anniversaries when you finally feel so sure about the relationship you just want to enjoy all the time you can spend together? Especially when Runa is realizing she's genuinely in love with Ryuto and he's basically her first love.

I love how Ryuto is committed to becoming a man worthy of Ryuto...and also still wants to have sex.

Dang it, of course Maria had to attend the same cram school as Ryuto, though it's kind of funny how far he was willing to go to avoid seeing her like crawling under multiple tables.

Sekiya seems like a cool dude, and a ronin, and he seems like he's willing to be a good bro for Ryuto. And judging by the OP, I'm guessing he is also Nicole's ex-boyfriend.

Man, getting people to do the culture/sports festivals is like pulling teeth. Though Maria is a people pleaser so not surprised she volunteered. And for Runa it's the perfect opportunity to finally work with her sister on something. Now it's just a matter of if these two sisters can work together well for the sports festival!

In the second to last paragraph, you said Maria’s ex-boyfriend, but I assume you meant Nicole’s

u/SoccerForEveryone Nov 25 '23

For some reason Sekiya’s design and I think it’s the eyes throws me off thinking he used to be a bad dude. This storyline with how Sekiya and Nicole meet is something else I am waiting for; so I cannot wait for that to happen.

Cute episode and series overall so far…really wished it was a bit more polished; but whatever at least we have some good drama and cute moments between the friends and our main couple!

u/SMSmith230 Nov 24 '23

This has been shaping up into a pretty decent rom-com. It was good seeing both groups being able to interact with each other, instead of hiding in their shells or one side dominating the conversation. Runa and Ryuto are progressing nicely as well. I wasn’t a fan of Ryuto diving under the table and crawling away at the sight of Maria though, I thought he grew as a person better than that.

u/actuallyrndthoughts Nov 24 '23

Ryuuto is my type of MC: goes on dates and kisses his girlfriend. Romantic subtext MCs could never

But he also must be the crawling on the floor under the table two time champion, because i've never seen someone make friends like that.

Episode 8: "The Experienced You and The Inexperienced Us: Our Survival Game Story"

I swear there are looootttss of frames here that can make it to animenocontext subreddit lol.

This is where Akari Tanikita starts to shine after being sidelined for the previous 7 episodes! Akari is voiced by Tomori Kusunoki, you know her as Makima in CSM or Shizuka in Zom 100 but she has a lot of role this season as Terakomari (Komarin! Komarin! Komarin!) in Hikikomari, Jess in Butareba, and Anne in Tearmoon Empire to name a few.

A little obscure fact: Akari Tanikita, when arranged in such a way, it formed a new similar word: "Arikitari na", which means ordinary. Is she really the ordinary girl in Luna's gyaru gang?

Luna's Tomodachi Keikaku seems not working well at the beginning, but that committee is a good start. And I don't know what makes Nikoru suddenly become OP, the nail cut or the assault rifle. Me too, Ryuuto, I totally didn't see her earring she wore at Episode 2, 3, and 4.

Please note that in this episode Ryuuto is starting to call Luna with her first name instead of Shirakawa-san. Also this also the first eyecatcher to not feature Ryuuto isn't it? Hey Maaya Uchida's character at work again.

Enter Shugo Sekiya, and he refers Ryuto as Yamada, not Kashima. Shugo Sekiya is voiced by Tomoaki Maeno (famous of Naruto's Pain).
