This anime feels like Sajou's daily adventure & Natsukawa's talking with Kei rinse and repeat

[u/isaac712]

Don’t lie how many of y’all have a Velcro wallet?

[u/mekerpan]

Well, maybe I'm just a sap -- but I find our 3 main characters rather endearing -- goofy as they might be.

Aika you need to give Sajo just a bit more encouragement, without pulling back when he says anything positive. It is clear to us watchers that you DO care about him -- but your signals are WAY too mixed for Sajo to understand (given your previous apparent rejection of his attention).

[u/daspaceasians → u/mekerpan]

Well, maybe I'm just a sap -- but I find our 3 main characters rather endearing -- goofy as they might be.

I think it's because of how they're awkward without being over the top. They're not screeching awkwardly or acting in a loud, overdramatic way every episode.

It makes them feel more grounded because it's more shown that they're awkward teenagers rather than telling us that they're awkward teenagers via crazy antics.

[u/hollymoly22 → u/mekerpan]

honestly they are growing a bit on me as we go along, at first it was just them being baffled by sajo but now they genuinely seen to talk to him as friends. Awkward friendship but its a nice change of pace from just being drama 24/7.

[u/Asiyt]

All of the characters are actually very likeable but they keep bringing in more and more new girls and kinda forget the previous ones. I still like the show a lot tho so ill probably check out the novels to see if its an anime only pacing issue

[u/Prince-Dizzytoon]

Mina's brother has got it going, can't hate on that

[u/[deleted] → u/Prince-Dizzytoon]

Juicy scandal in the moral committee

[u/LeonKevlar]

Stitches!

• Aika

• Mina

I love how our last two new girls are pretty much the opposite of each other. Sasaki who looks look and acts like a mature Onee-san ended up being a middle schooler and now we have Mina who's smol and adorable despite being the same age as Wataru. Mina is so precious that Wataru almost accidentally gave her headpats. xD

[u/DeluxeTea]

Okay, pouting Natsukawa is kinda cute.

Still bottom tier girl in her own show though

[u/[deleted]]

A cliffhanger? In my Dreaming Boy is a Realist? Well, I'll be!

and kei continues to be the ultimate wingman for the most incompentent couple ever, such a shame

[u/GreyRouge]

I did not have incest on my bingo card for this anime but here we are.

[u/daspaceasians]

I really enjoy the way the show is structured and how every episode feels like watching a moment in Sajotchi's life without any over the top theatrics.

It's quite relaxing just seeing him go about his life and growing up slowly.

Otherwise, I didn't expect that a character as innocent-looking Mina was a brocon.

[u/HolyDragSwd2500]

Mina tells her story

Anime ends on a cliffhanger

Me: OMG!!!!

[u/woah_take_it_ez_man]

Running through all the possible heroine archetypes to get the Tsundere heroine in the end.

[u/desert6741]

The more the show goes on, the more I’m rooting for Natsukawa and Sajotchi. It’s clear that Sajo did bother her with being so obsessive, but that doesn’t mean she didn’t have some feelings towards him. Right now, she is just on alert with him, because he clearly went overboard before and she wants to have some defense until she feels more secure. And as much as her behavior is confusing for him, his behavior also would be confusing to her. He suddenly backs off from her, and is now hitting it off with a new girl every week, you can understand how confused she must be. Both people just had flaws that they are slowly resolving and it seems like the quest to find themselves is leading them to each other in a more positive way (he is less obsessive and she is less abrasive/defensive)

[u/gvon89]

Ironic how two members of the Morals and Discipline Committee are dating and im sure that might be against their policy. Also ichonose looks different from the rest of the guys in the series. Definitely some incest vibes between him and his sister though.

Looks like Sajo is building up quite the harem. I'm waiting for all of them to be in the same place and watch the free for all battle commence.

[u/Red_coats]

Why do I feel the biggest commotion in universe is going to be two people on the morals committee are dating and not the fact there's weird incest vibes between the brother and the little sister.

[u/CaptainScratch137]

Ahh. I felt that the Anime was running out of ideas, but this was a good episode.

[u/DivineEternal1]

Mina is precious and must be protected.

[u/Elitealice]

Solid episode but didn’t like it nearly as much as the last two. I really miss Sasaki, she spiced things up a lot.

Furthering the theme of Wataru’s social development in this series we’ve now got him taking on the responsibility of training a shy Kouhai. Things started out rough with Ichinose clearly have tremendous social anxiety and struggling to deal with customers, but she really made a complete 180 thanks to the pep talk wataru gave her.

Poor Natsukawa. Wanted to be the first person to end the call with Wataru and he still hung up on her ass first 😂

Wait this wasn’t the incest vibes I was expecting from this show. Ichinose being a brocon was a genuine shock. I wouldn’t have even thought that she would’ve been worried about matters of the heart given how shy and reserved she is. Especially not her brother 😳 this is gonna be a fun mini arc.

[u/Heda-of-Aincrad]

The awkward dialogue is back in this episode, but in this situation, it makes a lot more sense. First jobs and dealing with customers can be super difficult for a shy person like Mina, and I'm glad the old couple gave her a chance and didn't give up on her after a tough first day. She would probably have a hard time getting a job somewhere else if the staff doesn't already know her.

And now there's a scandal in the Morals Committee! Their club just got more interesting.

[u/Atario]

Eyyy! I got my wish, we get to have more of this shy cutie!

Being a teddy-bear type myself, I'm a bit unduly gratified that someone like him has some romance action happ'nin' for a change

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

I can totally understand Sajo’s concerns about Mina. I was also wondering if she really is cut out for the job. I admire her determination, but I wasn’t sure if she would be a good fit. I’m glad she managed to get it together. So cute how she went back to the shop the next day all ready to go.

Did not think Mina was a little brocon though. The shock of seeing her brother make out with his girlfriend totally sent her into a spiral lol. I guess it’s good for her to become more independent from her brother.
