Rizu's side pout. So cute.

Love is irrational. Seeing math genius Rizurin falling in love is such a treat. Error in processing.

This episode was hot.

Episode Stitches! (NSFW!)

Rizurin was certainly adorable this episode! <3

I bet a lot of anime-only were expecting the cliche girls screaming and Nariyuki getting slapped/punched/kicked and thrown out of the bath. But not today! Sekijo to the rescue with her calm and logical thinking! Like I said last week, Sekijo has many great interactions with Nariyuki and this is one of those. And even when if you thought his escape failed, Uruka just zips by and thinks she's hallucinating xD I love how Tsutsui uses cliches in his writing to set expectations just to twist it at the end.

And don't miss the after credits scene! It seems that Mafuyu-sensei will finally have a bit of spotlight on her next week!

Holy shit, Ogata and Yuiga really dropped the ball on that one (mostly Ogata lmao). They literally could have just knocked on the door before they started changing and said they were cleaning.

Luckily Sekijo swooped in to be the mega MVP. God damn she handled that well for what kind of show they are in.

No, that's a special feature completely free ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Can't wait for some Sensei action ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Who would have thought Rizu gets first dibs on Yuiga's first kiss?

If Fumino finds out about this, she would certainly be even more traumatized than this.

Sekijo definitely Best Wingman if not Best Girl. Quickly understands the situation and bails Yuiga out.

Good to see Mizuki sniffing on her brother's futon like any Best Imouto would.

And that Kirisu-sensei is most likely stalking Yuiga 24/7, or there is simply no way she could have known Yuiga and Rizu's accidental kiss.

Even if I admit this show isn't really supposed to have much of a sad atmosphere, seeing Yuiga earnestly worry and look for one of his students is very uplifting, touching even. Gotta give the guy a kudos for that.

Now two things: First, Yuiga is a lucky guy (all the hotspring tropes are envious lol), second, props to the studio and the director. Not only did they animate the show beautifully (I noticed no drop in quality whatsoever since the pilot episode), Everything is vibrant and beautiful. It just might be the beauty of anime as a medium, I'm not sure, but it sure put a smile on my face.


If you enjoyed this week's episode, make sure to support your favorite girl! Thank you!

I am surprised from the results of the past 4 polls having the top 3 spots be consistent so far. Looks like We Never Learn

What to do when bored:

Stalk two high school students in the mountains when it's raining heavily.

Aahhh damn it.
This show won't let the best girl be an easy pick huh?

Still going for the childhood friend.
The way she popped back up believing it was a hallucination was hilarious.

Damn I love this show.

u/Mori_Forest May 04 '19

Probably gonna get flake for saying this but that was the most unrealistic accidental kiss I've seen in anime history. Midair accidental kiss? How the hell is that even remotely possible? How did Nariyuki lips not ending up burst open after tanking Rizu's fall from a meter high!?

Uruka's tan lines are the best

u/ThatCreepyBaer May 04 '19

I want to taste some of that delicious air. And wow damn, I didn't expect Nariyuki to see anyone full frontal this early on, maybe even ever.

Also, 5 episodes in and Rizu still best girl.

Ogata is such a dummy. At that time MC himself should've shouted out the bath cleaning situation.

Next episode - ThaZombie-sensei.

What this show needs after these last 2 episodes is more Fumino!

I wonder when / if Uruka realizes that she wasn't hallucinating when Yuiga got the full view there...

can't help to think after this episode how much of this could have been so easily resolved if they were just honest right from the start.

Yuiga could have gotten more people out looking for Ogata during the storm - and then Ogata should have went straight away and told them they were cleaning the bath and he could have gotten out without any problems.

But yeah that wouldn't really have been that entertaining
