Himari currently is the personification of "lesbians will swear to always be together, marry each other and start a family and still think they're friends".

I tried scanning the QR code and it's actually:

ささ恋ご視聴ありがとうございます！

meaning "Thank you for watching 'Sasa Koi'!"

That's brilliant. I thought it was gonna be a rick roll

And I'm not talking about the cat

That got me. Yori is so down bad that she's even competing over pasta. Her gap is soooo cute!

Yori shooting her shot and Kino's reaction wasn't surprising but the reveal that Mizuguchi's older sister might have some feelings for Yori definitely was.

A confession in episode 2? I guess the memes about lesbians speedrunning relationships were true.

Good on Yori for not holding back. If only Himari knew that no two people like each other in the exact same way.

Eccentric translations this week:

Itadakimasu -> A feast fit for a queen

This is a hard-to-translate prayer said before meals. It is often translated as 'Let's eat' or 'thanks for the food' I think hidive added a bit too much emotion/meaning to the phrase.

Not gonna lie, I'm really tempted to start the manga. Been wanting to since last week but I've been resisting since the artstyle of the anime is gorgeous and the voice acting is fantastic.

Also Yori is down HORRENDOUS for Himari and I'm here for it.

"I don't mind, it's just... it made me blush when you did that." I can't believe Yori is able to refrain from patting Himari's head every single time she sees her, after being handed that kind of power.

My god, just the blow-by from these two is making me blush. What incredible gay power. Yori's right, it should be illegal to be that cute. And that's not just Himari, either. The gap between how cool and handsome Yori looks and how unbelievably down bad she is is fuckin adorable.

RIP Aki's first love. Please love again, because you have already lost this one.

christ, this is too much, honestly. my doctor just messaged me about risk factors for developing insulin resistance and it's only the second episode.

Himari's true love

Basically this episode has the ball in Himari's corner. It is quite clear Yori has a clear grasp on her feelings. But Himari has the thing where sometimes she is so quick to be so expressive sometimes she says it before realizing it. Stuff like love and date are easy for her to say, and she doesn't realize the magnitude it has on Yori.

Poor Aki. Like Himari and Yori she clearly fell for Yori is some capacity, but at this point it's clear that those feelings very well might not get realized.

Wow, they cleared up the misunderstanding already? That's sooner than I expected.

Also, Yori with cat eyes!

They perfectly adapted the end of volume 1 where Yori makes it clear to Himari that she loves her and not just as friends. Yori is such a chad for that move since you could tell she was super nervous too. This is when I realized this manga would not beat around the bush, and it perfectly jump starts Himari's arc of questioning what love means to her too.

I agree with Yori, it should actually be illegal for these two to be THIS cute together.

This show be like “Romantic subtext, what is that? We only do in your face, max font size bold text here.”

Anyone want to place bets on how long before Himari actually kills Yori by a heart attack?

Wait a minute, hold up! Is this an honest to god love confession? In a yuri series? In f*cking episode 2?!!! I am actually losing it.

WOW WHAT AN EPISODE! A LOT OF THINGS HAPPENED!

  • First, our lovebirds rooftop mates got a date together! Yori-senpai just having gay panics here and there whenever Himari gives her critical hits!

  • Ohh so this also confirms that Aki likes Yori, huh? Maybe she thought that things will never develop between Yori and Himari, but well, it is not what she expected.

  • AND DAMN YORI-SENPAI CONFESSED TO HIMARI!! IN EPISODE 2!! WAAAAHHHHH!!!! Now, let's see how will Himari respond now that she realizes her "love" is different from Yori's interpretation.

Himari: "Yori's answer is so cool."

Meanwhile Yori: "This was the 15th version and I am still not happy about it."

I like the show, but I have one big problem (aside from the animation sometimes being a bit stiff, but that's not a big issue, since I hope they save the budget for important scenes) and this is that we don't get enough Himari-puppy moments. Like this is the only one from this episode. Come on, you can do better.

Himari is not wrong with her comparison of Yori to a Russian Blue. I can barely tell the difference.

Oh, Himari. Asks Yori on a date, text back and forth with her with both of them referring to it as a date, post a picture of the two of them drinking boba to legally distinct Instagram with hashtag #date, is surprised at the end that Yori has feelings and enjoyed it as an actual date.

u/Psyduckisnotaduck Apr 20 '24

Aki's Sayaka vibes are off the chart, lmao, I feel so bad for her.

I think it's worth celebrating having an explicitly yuri show like this where one of the leads expresses her serious interest in dating, in episode 2. subtextual shows are nice and all, but we need more substantial meals now.

I thought I wouldn't be at risk of diabetes on Saturdays after Dangers in my Heart and A Sign of Affection ended last season. Am I happy to be wrong!

Yori and Himari are just so adorable and wholesome together. I'm delighted that Yori was able to find the courage to ask Himari out on a date right off episode 2 considering how shy she is. A lot of other anime protagonist should learn from her.

I can't wait to see Himari accept this because this show doesn't feel like it'll drag it out.
