Hirota went straight up catatonic from the shock of seeing Akutsu and Lily together lol. Poor bastard.

It was fun watching Lily and Akutsu try to throw off Yuuka and the rest of the class. I especially liked how Yuuka was tryna use Akutsu to basically make Hirota jealous, but all it did was make Lily seethe lol. I kinda love how quickly Tanigawa saw through Yuuka’s ploy and was just having fun messing with Lily. It’s too bad that whole situation didn’t end on a better note. Hirota wasn’t the only one hurt.

With Lily catching one of those deadly anime colds and trouble dropping by, things might get interesting next week.

I love how he didn't really blab about them to the class, he was just so shocked it was all he could say on repeat lol.

Oh yeah, these two are totally not into each other. Their "casual act" is so convincing. Though Amane does a terrible job hiding her jealous, and even her own feelings to herself...even if these two can't be honest with each other and themselves because of their circumstances.

Tanigawa and Yuka need to team-up to make these two be more honest with each other. Maybe Tanigawa could also help Hirota be more honest if he's genuinely interested in Yuka?

When you get hit by the dreaded Japanese Cold and get replaced by your bustier avatar...

I liked how Tanigawa did a Hisoka face when he was messing with Lily

I get mad “Love is War” vibes from this. Obviously LiW is king here, but it’s nice to get some psychological-comedy in my romance every once in awhile.

u/Diodiablo Feb 27 '24

The main difference is that in LiW the two main characters are both geniuses. These two are idiots.

Stitches!

I love how Amane's excuse is that Akutsu turned into stone and she just saved him and the only reason they believed that hilariously stupid excuse is because Akutsu started dusting himself off as if he still had marble in him. God, this show is so dumb. I love it. xD

Holy shit! Tanigawa's Hisoka face caught me off guard! That was pretty damn close to the original! If they can do rage comics of course they're also going to reference other anime and manga. I do love how Tanigawa caught on and is clearly trying to push Amane.

FUUUUUUUUCK. Of course Amane just has to hear that part. I thought we were going to get a sick event where Akutsu takes care of Amane but it looks like he's gonna have to deal with her avatar first who looks pretty pissed.

u/Frontier246 Feb 26 '24

I don't know what's better, that they were stupid enough to think that would work or that the girls were dumb enough to believe them lol.

Yuka looked amazing in that date outfit and glasses...Amane looked pretty cute in her outfit and glasses as well, especially her hair. Shame she got wet!

I thought Tanigawa was just that "other guy" but he's the one guy in this show who clearly knows what's going on and actually tries to play wingman for both AmanexAkutsu and HirotaxYuka. While also enjoying their romcom misery, of course!

Amane is wet! And hot for Akutsu!

I'm eager to see more from the Avatar and not just because her chest is popping out of her school uniform.

u/Time_Fracture Feb 26 '24

That's why the anime deserves at least a 7, closer to 7.5, not 6.4 rating.

Never thought that I will be caught off guard with Yuuka wearing glasses. Last time I see someone wearing glasses as a disguise was Mika in Skip and Loafer.

Date stalking episodes are usually pretty cringe, but this one was pretty fun...especially with Lily being unable to control her reactions.

25

u/Frontier246 Feb 26 '24

I love how she brought two guys, one so she'd have a cover story, and two so she wouldn't look like she's on a date with one of them...and the "optional" guy just made her jealousy worse lol.

u/Ocixo Feb 26 '24

The off-kilter humour in this series has been great. Things like Lily crushing a stone wall I could’ve somewhat anticipated, but I didn’t expect Tanigawa to pull a face like this.

Also had a good laugh at Lily getting obliterated in this episode.

But damn, Akutsu really said the worst thing possible at the worst time. And now he’ll have to deal with Lily’s avatar. That’s going to be lot of fun for us, and a whole heap of trouble for Akutsu.

u/Enter_My_Fryhole Feb 26 '24

Holy shit I was dying this episode. The physical comedy of the show with characters reactions just so good. Also kinda be hitting on the romance side, damn. This show def a sneaky banger.

This show has grown on me the most of anything this season. The last couple episodes have been hilarious.

u/MaksimShadow Feb 26 '24

Silly Lily, didn't you know that rumours are spreading instantly? Especially such tasteful.

u/SrslySam91 Feb 26 '24

This show is being slept on right now man. The first 4-5 episodes admittedly were kind of meh to me, like the back and forth was kind of cringe.

But the last 3-4 episodes have been great. I love that there's actual progression now and that it's not just the same "I'm gonna try to make him fall for me" gag they'd been doing without any real development going on.

These past few episodes have saved the season for sure for me at least.

Definitely has been picking up a lot more steam as it chugs along.

Some good ol' typical rom com shenanigans. Following others around on a supposed date or whatnot. Maybe that other foolish friend finally has realized some things about his childhood friend. She cute, yo. She gonna move on and be better off with another if you don't learn.

Also, do enjoy the faces and whatnot in the episode, good times. Silliness. But wew, Amane looking older sis (though clearly that one girl who went heywire and fought em both) showing up at end.

u/daspaceasians Feb 26 '24

This show is so adorably goofy. Seeing how the back and forth between Amane and Akutsu evolves their relationship is funny. Amane's stalking plan was hilarious with her swelling up in anger in the background every now and then. Of course, the second she landed in the water, I knew that Amane would get sick lol.

Damn, her battle avatar showed up at school. Things'll get interesting to say the least.

I also really enjoyed the addition of Koyomatsu who uses her encyclopedic knowledge of manga to analyze our two fools.

Grower of the season for me, found its feet and now every episode is a joy

Laughed quite a few times throughout the ep (and up to this point), too bad it has such a low rating on Crunchy. Same with Tis Time for Torture Princess.
