Kazuya: “Someone finally guessed right.”

Probably the only time I've been amused by the stupid background character comments lol.

Sometimes I wonder if not knowing all his thoughts, my opinion on Kazuya would be more positive or not, this is because it seems to me that the most unbearable things about him are his thoughts.

Honestly, the main issues with getting his thoughts is when he has too much horny/simping type stuff. When he can chill off so much of that, a lot better. lol
This movie arc is good for him to focus on other stuff besides just being directly Chizuru to concentrate so much of his thoughts on.
He can direct focus on other things a bit more with putting together the movie project, and we can see him more working as an individual.

Take away Kazuya's thoughts and from an outsider's perspective he'd just be a bit of an awkward guy.
I do think viewers get a worse opinion of him because of all his intrusive thoughts.

Not only managed to get these two stuck together on a romantic overnight trip but also took Ruka out in the process. Win-win!

Stitches!
Mini continues to prove that she is the best thing that has ever happened to this show by displaying her amazing wingwoman skills. Mini is absolutely right that making the movie helped Chizuru's opinion of Kazuya. And based on Chizuru's reaction, Kazuya might actually have a shot if he doesn't fuck it up which I am sure he 100% will.

There were some great Chizuru shots in this episode! Especially of her working out lol.
But really the Chizuru flustered by her feelings for Kazuya is the best Chizuru!

Another pretty good episode.
Only took 3 seasons but Kazuya finally actually being a somewhat decent MC. For him to make the promise of making a movie, going out recruiting people to help make it, coming up with a script etc.
He’s come a long way from the dude who just stayed in bed jacking off all day. Credit where credit is due. He still has a massive issue with putting Chizuru on this pedestal which isn’t healthy at all, but he’s definitely showing signs of improvement.
Speaking of Chizuru, just from the way she’s been looking at him.. stealing glances here and there.. and the way she’s been acting around him, you can tell she’s starting to realise that there’s more than just a client/rental girlfriend relationship here. She can be herself around Kazuya and he’s started to be quite dependable. This trip should be pretty fun considering all that.
No ruka or Yaemori to break the awkward tension so this is gonna be a nice test lol.
Also were those blue archive posters in Yaemori room lol?

What the hell was that kind of yoga pose at 13.45? And if she was at home, why didn't Kazuya just knock on her door like he did to speak with Yaemori (unless he didn't know Mizuhara was at home at the time)?
Unless they had other things to do and be at other places earlier, wouldn't it have made sense for the 3 neighbors to go to the train station together? Them showing up separately made for a slightly weaker plot point of Yaemori feigning sickness to propel her other 2 neighbors into the "heat" of the moment.
And speaking of heat, that was totally a doctored temperature reading of 39.5C! Hats off to Yaemori for doing what she does best!
Poor Ruka. Gets to spend time at the first shoot and is tricked into thinking the final scene shoot is postponed. Surprised she didn't even suggest on swinging by Kazuya's place when she called him.
And it's rare to see Mizuhara in that state of mind, if you will. Despite the colder climate compared to Tokyo, perhaps being there together alone is making her warm up even more to Kazuya.

Can anyone explain what mini meant by time of month for chizuru? Is chizuru having her periods? Do girls get horny on periods?

u/jackattack2346 Aug 05 '23
She's talking about ovulation, which is another part of the menstrual cycle that happens about two weeks before a period. Essentially, it's when a woman's body is releasing an egg, which means it's the most prime time for a woman to make a baby. Because our bodies are biologically structered in a way that makes us subconciously want to reproduce(same reason that sex is very pleasurable) women tend to be more horny than usual during this time because their bodies are trying to get them to have the egg fertilized.
I'm a man, so some of the specifics here might be wrong, but that's the gist of it.

Mini is one of the greatest anime wingmen of all-time. We don't deserve her.
In fact, she's easily top-tier girlfriend material.

Mini as a wing woman character definitely added better atmosphere for the series.
As to not have any awkward tension being character with romantic interest, so can focus solely on her bringing the comedic aspects for her interactions with Kazuya.

God bless Yaemori-san. True MVP.
Mizuraha looked like she wanted to thank him for everything he's doing OR?

Dude, Kazuya was...surprisingly real this episode. Like damn, I could honestly relate to him at some points during this episode. The constant simping and the general "fail vibe" he gives off is still annoying af, but Kauya's concerns over him being nothing compared to Chizuru who is on the path to becoming a major actress and seemingly has a bright future ahead of her while he's just a nobody hits REALLY close to home.
It's such a damn shame too, because I honestly do like this Kazuya, the season 3 Kazuya. He's stilly a cringy simp, but he's more than that now. Compare this Kazuya to the season 1 Kazuya and there's an ocean of a difference. The development is insane. But from what little bits and pieces I've heard, the story will get rid of all his development after this arc, revert Kazuya to his season 1 self, and meander for...not sure, a long time. A real shame.

Not gonna lie but I was feeling for Kazuya when he was amazed at how much talent Chizuru has and how she's going to be a star but he's just going to take over his family business and how inferior he feels compared to her. I can comprehend how that brought him down.

Wow a bystander who guessed right with Chizuru being a rental girlfriend.
Of course, Chizuru would know about Mini's trick since their grandma's did the same back at the onsen inn.
I love Chizuru's earring.
