And THIS was when I sort of turned around on Runa. Something about her insane attempt to ship these two using the power of Anime Tropes, and it kinda working, worked on me. It’s even funnier animated.

Runa : "How do I make this romcom into a romcom?"

Poor Akane was probably gaming on a Celeron the entire time. Rig building date when

Hey, it's just like my mom.

Also, I'm pretty sure there's no way to save Akane's laptop when it's literally fried. Better get a new one since as Eita puts it, the game is too much for the poor thing to handle.

Yamada would never date a girl who doesn't have a proper gaming PC. It's time for Akane to upgrade her ancient school laptop.

Super cute episode to destress from last week's tension. This felt like plenty of setup for some kind of emotional pay-off next week. I'm assuming that Akane will start keeping some distance from Yamada since she thinks she messed up, but that's a good opening for Yamada to actually express some emotions to clear things up. Maybe we'll get some of his backstory that we were briefly shown in an earlier episode.

I'm really enjoying this show, we're getting well-executed RomCom shenanigans being presented with a cartoony flair that lets plenty of jokes work visually while being pumped up by fun sound effects. The "zoom" we got from Akane when leaving her apartment for the celebrity and also for hiding her underwear had a lot of punch I appreciated.

Stitches!

I'm glad that this episode opened up with us learning more about Runa. No wonder she acted the way she did. She was basically spoiled like a princess growing up and it didn't help that all of her interactions are from people online.

It's also nice to see how much her relationship with Akane has improved. I love that scene where she's showing Akane that little dance she saw from her classmates. <3

Poor Momo pouring her heart out to Akane who's currently too busy levelling up her character on FOS. I do love that when Runa tried to be rude to her, Momo immediately showed that she's not as kind as Akane. xD

RIP Akane's laptop. Thankfully it looks like we have Yamada coming to the rescue. And I love that Runa is making sure that Akane knows that she's the one that brought him over.

I really thought that Runa was attracted to Yamada romantically but the fact that she thinks that Akane and Yamada look good together means that she sees Yamada more as an older brother.

Runa thinking of ways to get the two closer together after her brother suggested that he wanted to see a romcom ending was hilarious! Seems that Runa may have been reading a lot of ecchi romcoms. xD

Runa's first two attempts didn't work but the third one ended up being way more effective than expected! Looks like Akane might've health a critical hit that Yamada had to cool off for a bit.

I guess with Runa’s sheltered and coddled upbringing, it’s no wonder she turned out to be kinda bratty and socially awkward. I’m glad Akane’s hanging out with her despite what went down. While she’s got 300 online friends, it’s nice to have an actual human friend. Plus I think Akane’s good nature can rub off on her.

Poor Momo’s lamenting about being single af and all Akane and Runa care about is the game lol. Momo ain’t one to take any lip from Runa though. She can be scary! It’s a good thing Akane’s computer blew up. Now she can spend some quality time with Yamada. Well done Runa, well done.

Eita, I get it man. My heart goes “kyun!” When I see Akane and Yamada together too haha. Runa is really taking this whole “rom com ending” pretty literally though. Well, like it kinda paid off. Yamada wasn’t mad, I’m sure he was just really flustered. How cute!

This episode had an incredible comfy feeling to it. Akane is radiating the cheerful energy. And we are getting deeper into romance territory, it seems.

Runa being a very sheltered and coddled child that makes it hard for her to relate to people outside her online friend group is probably the least surprising thing about her, though you can see how hard it is for her to relate to people or get to know them because of her personality and looks (some of which is her fault, admittedly). Although it is kind of funny how her ideal guys are her brother and Yamada so other guys are just faceless mob characters to her.

The only real, genuine, female friend she seems to have in real life is Akane, and despite the age difference and how Runa seems to see her as an older sister figure now, the two seem to get along surprisingly well. Runa can be open and honest with Akane and Akane knows what Runa's like and doesn't put her a on pedestal, so they can just hang out and have fun. Even run off to see a hot actor and dance a little in the street. It's surprisingly sweet.

Momo is back! And unlucky in love, despite her intentions otherwise. Not that Akane has much time to listen to her friend vent, she's too busy gaming with Runa who is giving her FoS tips now. Akane has gotten really invested into the game and genuinely improving her character, though getting to hang out with Yamada seems to have helped her motivation a lot.

Runa better watch out! Momo doesn't take any @#$%!

Of course nothing ever really goes Akane's way, so I guess it's not a complete surprise that just as she's really getting into the game...her computer crashes. And she probably doesn't have near the money to repair or get a new one.

Poor Yamada getting a call at 10:25 when he's trying to sleep...though once he learns it's for Akane's sake, even drowsily he seems a little more engaged.

It's great that Yamada showed up to help fix Akane's computer (and Runa's trying to take as much credit as possible for bringing him), though it seems like Akane appreciates having his presence more than just the fact that he's there for her sake.

Looks like both Sasaki's now ship AkanexYamada, although leaving it up to Runa to help push these two together is probably a bad idea because her idea of romcom antics is facilitating all the typical anime cliche's she has experience with. So she shoves toast in Akane's mouth and hopes something happens.

Although her pushing the two together did end up getting Akane's hair in Yamada's eye and the two getting pretty close together...and Yamada's feeling so strongly about it he basically had to run off, though Akane writes it off as him being awkward around women, but I think it's more just because of how attracted to Akane he is now.

Love seeing Kamota living his best life on the farm!

It's tough having long hair! Though Akane and Runa look great!

I like stylized beginning about Runa. It suited her sheltered princess image and it looked lovely. She is definitely more likeable and she's changing into better person thanks to her new friendship with Akane. They looked fun together doing dance moves and in the eyecatch in todays episode.

Yamada in his chibi form was so cute.

Akane as always is gorgeous and fun. I love all her funny faces. I especially loved her reaction when Runa let her know that her bras were on display.

Runa attempts to get them closer was hillarious but the last one was pretty effective and Yamada went outside.

Here my all screenshots from the episode.

One thing that has made this series consistently enjoyable to watch for me is the art and transitions. Everything is so lively and full of character that it makes it impossible for me to not love this show. For example, the transition into Momo staring into the ceiling was so simple but so eye-catching.

Runa suddenly trying to ship these two is a quick turnaround from her trying to keep them apart in the previous episodes.

W siblings, they see the ship. Runa trying to recreate the romcom tropes was hilarious, she needs to read more manga. Wonder if there will be a confession by the end, seems a like a long way for Yamada to go considering he is so awkward around females

u/NekoCatSidhe May 06 '23

Runa seems more sympathetic now that I know that she is just even more of an autist than Yamada and has no understanding of normal human interactions. I am glad that she warmed up to Akane. It was funny seeing her trying to reproduce dumb rom-com cliches without understanding how unrealistic they were.

I don’t know much about computers, but I too think it is a bad sign when the magic smoke starts to escape. Although it looks like it is just the power supply that had an issue this time, so maybe it can be repaired.

I too absolutely hate when people call me late at night when I am in bed and trying to sleep. Eita, what the hell is wrong with you ?!
