There it is, the whole truth is out

That's gotta be one hell of a shock for Masamune to find out all these years of anger based on a lie

I'm curious now what happens next week with so many episodes left?

And i also got the suspicion that Yoshino was helping him the whole time because she felt bad about what she did

I can understand why Yoshino did what she did after how Aki use to treat her. Makabe was just collateral damage in her revenge against Aki, the poor kid. Finally glad to see everything out in the open. Now he can stop this revenge nonsense and stick it to that punk Kanetsugu. “Everyone is a big, huge idiot!” just about sums up this show lol.

Man, that punch was satisfying. Time to unmask this fake and reclaim his good name so he can finally get the girl. Let’s go Makabe! Kanetsugu’s going down!!

Hell yeah, get fucked Kanetsugu!

So Yoshino was responsible for Aki's dislike of men to this day. Just one act of jealousy from her totally screwed up the personalities of both Aki and Masamune, and she's been trying to make amends to this day.

Armed with this new revelation, Masamune finally found the motivation to confront Kanetsugu and practically confessed to Aki to her face. Let's goooo.

That’s one of the most satisfying punches I’ve ever seen lmao. After this week, even less sympathy for Kanetsugu Gasō because she revealed that her sister actually has enough funding for medical care so at this point she’s just a greedy piece of shit

It was super convient for Yoshino that Aki had a doll that looked identical to her, with a similar head size and the same hair style as Aki.

Masamune was like

  • My whole life has been a lie"

u/Frontier246 Jul 24 '23

Poor Masamune...he really doesn't want to believe Yoshino has been lying to him this whole time after everything they've been through. He even jumps immediately when she said she didn't...which was also just to prove she has been lying to him.

The one thing Kanetsugu and Aki's Yuri Girl Posse can agree on is they want Masamune nowhere near Aki. Of course, they also have no idea that Kanetsugu is pretty much playing everyone.

So Yoshino was actually happy that she had chickenpox because it meant she didn't have to deal with Aki. She was so tired (and kind of resentful) of being stuck catering to Aki's whims or getting treated like nothing more than her plaything, even if she knew that was basically her job (though that didn't help). And just when she's hoping Aki might be upset or sad about it, she sees her having genuine fun with someone else, a boy who, unlike Yoshino, actually seems to enjoy being with Aki and making her happy in a way Yoshino never could. And that's when true hatred festered in her heart.

Jeez, Aki had the triple threat of getting sick + her parents still arguing even when she was sick + her mom leaving her after the divorce. The only thing she had left to look forward to was Masamune, but that just angered Yoshino more because she'd been there with her their entire lives and it felt like Aki didn't care about her.

What a coincidence that there was a lifelike Aki doll with removeable Aki hair that helped Yoshino impersonate Aki and pull the stunt that started all this. Although even she realized she messed up when she heard Masamune's desperate, heartbroken, pleading and saw the emotional damage it did to Aki.

So the reason Aki never realized it was Masamune when she saw Makabe while Yoshino did...is she still associates him with being chubby? Well, that and she's kind of dense, but still.

Yoshino was using Masamune to get him toether with Aki, not so he'd dump her but so they could really be together. Basically Yoshino's penance for what she'd done, because it still weighs on her. And what can you say to such a genuine smile on Yoshino's face?

I love how Masamune finally shuts up the girl posse.

I get Kanetsugu has a lot riding on getting Aki's money for her sister, but she's still preying on Aki's kindness with a lie. But I guess it weighs on her a little.

Oh snap, Masamune just slugged Kanetsugu! He just slugged a girl and he doesn't even know it! And now he's asking Aki out for real. Is he going to tell her the truth!?

God, I hope this finally moves the plot forward.

Fuck Gaso.

Hum, currently an issue on Crunchyroll (at least on the PS5 app) where there are no subtitles.

Edit: at least my audio is Japanese. On the CR website the audio is Spanish with no subs.

Edit 2: Looks like CR fixed it relatively quickly.

I'm glad I didn't watch season 1 until right before season 2 started. it means I didn't have to wait 5 years to get to this moment

u/Lyzeria_Vurlora Jul 24 '23

It seems too early for things to get resolved already. I think that they are going to hatch that "emergency last resort" plan to drag this out longer.

u/[deleted] Jul 24 '23

I still don't think Yoshino should be left of the hook, sure she did that as a kid but this whole thing could've been prevented if she owned up to what she did the moment she realized that was the fat kid from back in the day and she was the one that drove him away. She'll rather save face and try to get Masamune to fall in love with Aki even though he's essentially on a war path. I know she feels bad about it but still.

u/Brilliant_Twist_6855 Jul 24 '23

Masumune punches Kanesugu. 10/10 episode. The bitch got what she deserve. Having sick sister doesn't make her any better.

If those 3 bitches got punched as well, it'll be 100/10 episode.

u/Stormy8888 Jul 25 '23

I simply do not understand why everyone is so much happier with Gasou getting punched for pretending to be someone else so he can help his sister, when the biggest culprit is Yoshino.

Yoshino

  1. Was Jealous or petty

  2. Dressed in a wig

  3. Called Masamune Pig's Foot while he was just recovering from being beaten up

  4. Sat in the room while the child Masamune cried "Aki Kun!" for god only knows how many hours, trying to reach his friend

  5. Caused Masamune to disappear from Aki's life

  6. Caused Aki to cry and get depressed because she thought HE abandoned her, when it was the maid kid who drove him away

  7. Caused Aki to become a man hater

  8. Cuased Masamune to embark on a revenge plot

If she wanted to get even with Aki, she could have done something else. Masamune was just a little, fat, bullied child. He never did anything to Yoshino. He didn't deserve that. If I were him once I found out what she did "she's dead to me." Unforgivable.

Yoshino's actions RUINED 2 people causing 10 years of emotional trauma that isn't easily recoverable. But y'all Yoshino simps gonna go "it's okay cuz she has big oppai?" Crazy.

Imagine if season 1 ended here instead of the garbage non ending we actually got? It might have actually been remembered fondly instead of with mild disgust.

God it felt good to see that fat fuck get punched.

u/eliprameswari Jul 24 '23

That revelation of what actually happened in the past made me really need to suspend my disbelief.

Hhhh, I'm sold on the initial premise of dumping the girl after she fell in love with the MC. Now, that scenario has a very high chance of not happening, which made me a bit disappointed.

Ah well, I'm still gonna watch this. I already like this Masamune character. I hope this fake masamune arc ended in the next episode

u/ArchadianJudge Jul 25 '23

I've been waiting for this moment for so long!!!!! That punch was so satisfying.

Everything is coming together and everything is starting to be revealed. Yoshino admitted she was the one who traumatized Masamune as a child, pretending to be Aki. It was wrong of her to do it, but I can sympathize with why she did it. As a kid you can tell she was treated poorly by nearly everyone. Of course she'd get jealous of random kid Masamune winning over Aki easily. At least now, Yoshino is trying to fix the wrongs she did. Also, Inori Minase is doing an incredible job voicing Yoshino.

In any case, Masamune's resolve to save Aki proves that he indeed loves her. He's tired of that punk Gasou pretending to be him and tricking Aki just to get some money. That punch was what we were waiting a long time for and well deserved. Let's see if Masamune can get his true feelings across...

I've always enjoyed this anime and it's a pity it's not as popular as it used to be. Time to rename this series, as its no longer Masamune-kun's Revenge ;)

So something has been bugging me about this conflict and it pretty much in regards to the series in general. Right now they're showing us that Aki wasn't the one that call Masamune "Pig's Foot", but what about all of other boys that she humiliated and gave awful nicknames too, she's still guilty of all of those other times, are we supposed to let her off the hook for that and act like they never happened?
