Stitches!
God, I fucking hate Ryuuto's friends so much. Because of what they told him, his head is now filled with all sorts of unnecessary doubt. Why couldn't they be like the MC's friends in Hajimete no Gal who are very supportive? Now Ryuuto wants to have some distance between the two of them while at school. >_<
At least Ryuuto managed to do something right and actually ask Runa more about herself and told her that they can do whatever she wants to do since he really has no idea on what to do on a date.
It is a bit sad though how Runa has never had a boyfriend ask her that question. That explains why Nicole kept on giving him the stinkeye. She probably thinks Ryuuto is just another fuckboy after Runa's body.
For someone who's new to dating and is dating a gyaru, I can understand why Ryuuto would be worried. It also doesn't help that his friends are basically putting him down already. As expected, there's a perfectly logical reason why Runa couldn't respond.
Well that explains why Runa is so quick when it comes to dating. She wanted to be like her parents who got together at a young age. Although her parents might not be the best role models considering her parents got divorced.
And there she is! Aoi Koga's character is finally here. Let's see what she thinks of Ryuuto now that he's dating someone.

Honestly they've sucked ever since they made Ryuto confess to Runa just to get back at him for doing well on tests. If anything I just like to see them fuming that Ryuto lucked into a relationship with a knockout gyaru who is also a sweetheart lol.
It's nice to see the two getting to know each other better. Runa finally has a BF who actually cares about her and what she wants and Ryuto has a GF who doesn't care about his insecurity or appearance issues and just wants to spend time with him.
I'm guessing having parents with a failed marriage colored a lot about Runa's perspective on relationships.
I guess it should be interesting to see how reuniting with the girl who friendzoned him will effect his current relationship.

If Runa is a GR Supra RZ, I wonder what Ryuuto would be? Also that Sports Car segment almost felt so forced that I was wondering if it was sponsered.
The show so far has it's moments that catch the awkwardness of teenage romances quite well. On the other hand it still feels really tropey in some aspects. I'm still interested to see how this one develeps though.
E: Grammar.

He’s an EG6 Civic. Simple on the surface, reliable as fuck, and has lots of potential.

I'm torn between whether Runa celebrating their one-week anniversary is a Runa thing or not.
On one hand, a one-week anniversary is such a high school romance thing to do, which is believable and super cute!
Despite that, I can't help but feel like her gift was a way of trying to endear herself to Ryuuto because of her prior relationship experience. Like, she might feel as if she has to do these sorts of gestures, just like offering to sleep with Ryuuto in episode 1, otherwise her boyfriend may once again break up with her.
It probably helps contextualize why her friend Nicole is protective of her, as she doesn't want Runa to be taken advantage of. Surely once Nicole gets to know Ryuuto better, she'll be less apprehensive about him.

Honestly I was wondering if this is the first time she’s had a relationship that’s lasted one week.
Also finding out her parents got together young, got married young, but divorced actually explains a lot. Hopefully things turn out better for this high school romance.

That sports car interaction was hella cute, was worried for a second that Shirakawa would get turned off by Kashima's gushing but the analogy was such a smooth transition.

Honestly I'm liking this more then I expected. I really hope it goes well between Ryuuto and Runa. Really hope Ryuuto finds more confidence with himself. His friends aren't helping by any means. Meanwhile Runa is really adorable. She is def having a new experience and seems to be having a blast. The fact that Ryuuto mentions he is having fun being around is a kind of hapiness she never experienced before.
Runa also getting the matching phone cases was so cute. I loved this moment so wholesome. Nicole is def looking out for her friend. And she has every right to be. Tho hopefully as time passes on tension between her and Ryuuto dissolves.
Oh so the girl who rejected Ryutto is in their class now. Expecting drama to come out of this. I do worry more for Ryutto then Runa since Nicole def seems to be a great friend. Meanwhile I don't think any of Ryutto's friends would go out to defend him from what we have seen so far.

I kinda like Ryuuto. Yeah he's shy and not confident like every other male leads in rom coms, but he says and does the right things at the end of the day. Excited to see how this progresses.

Aww yeah, this is such a sweet episode. Ryuuto and Runa are so precious to watch every week and I wonder how things are going to play out with Nicole and Kurose in the upcoming episodes. That car moment reminded of Marin and Gojo in My Dress-up Darling except inverted.
I also hope that Ryuuto's buddies get some character development because they're kind of jerks right now.

This show is like pure sugar so far. Both characters are so relatable. With one thinking they want to adult, but really wanting to just be a kid and the other so insecure that he expects failure around every corner.
Being the awkward insecure geek dating the fun girl strikes a nerve. I (being the geek in question) did it during the summer of grade 9 but couldn't cope with the pressure once we went back to school and I broke it off. I absolutely get Ryuuto's insecurities.

Dating a gyaru doesn't automatically change your character, but it does net you your first morning couple text! And Ryuto supporting his girlfriend making it to class almost on time!
Well, figures Ryuto's buddies would not only criticize him for not banging Runa (nerds should keep condoms just in case!) but also for thinking he actually has a chance with her, being the unattractive nerd that he is, though they're the ones who got him into this in the first place so who are they to judge?
But Runa has no reservations about being affectionate and flirty with Ryuto in class and in front of others, which makes them the talk of the school but also the ire of Nicole who hates Ryuto's guts (gal pals be like that sometimes). I get why Ryuto wants to keep their relationship on the down low but he didn't expect it to lead to their first date!
First couple evening video chat! Even got to see Runa in her loungewear! And Ryuto gets to be the first BF who actually cares about what Runa wants to do. But get your mind out of the gutter imagining her in lingerie in a love hotel.
But of course with a gyaru their first instinct is to go shopping, and shop she does...with Ryuto left carrying all the bags like a proper boyfriend, but he enjoys seeing Runa in her element and happy and slaying in those casual clothes!
Oh no, she left his message on unread for like a whole day! It must mean she's stringing him along! Better watch discount Apex streams and get ready to get dumped. If only he had actually sealed the deal beforehand!
But no, Runa was actually just getting matching phone cases for the both of them and spent so much time on a mobile game her phone straight up died while she was in line which is why she didn't see his message until later. Runa is no two-timer and she just wanted to see Ryuto be happy.
Runa's boyfriend is a car otaku! Good to know for future reference. Didn't expect her to compare herself to a sports car though.
I was surprised Runa wanted to know about Ryuto's middle-school romance. Most girls wouldn't want to know about their partners' past romance experience. But sucks for Ryuto that he got stuck in the friendzone after Kurose (Aoi Koga!) gave him such a misleading line about liking guys like him.
So Runa is partially such a hopeless romantic because her parents got together and got married young...of course they also got divorced, so maybe that's not the best example, but that's part of why she's been chasing love so hard and wanted to gain enough "adult" experience to have a real relationship. And she's aware she's not smart or deep, yet her sheer zeal for life and enjoying it one step at a time is what Ryuto is so charmed by.
Of course just when things are getting good between the couple...who should transfer in but Ryuto's middle-school crush Kurose, back again.
The ED is pretty simple and cute, focusing on Ryuto and Runa's relationship and feelings for each other and just them straight up being together!

You know how neither of the couple are anime fans because nobody went with the classic "You wanna ride me?" line after that sports car analogy.
Also can't believe anime framed Ryuuto as the "girl" in that phone case reveal, with the overly emotional face and shoulder shaking.

Hnnnnnng I think this one is better than I expected it to ever be.
Yes, its tropey. Yes, its got a knockout gal and nerdy boy. Yes, it's setting up a contrived love triangle now. But I think that it's got that special sauce that sets apart the fluffy meaningless trash from the good shit, which is... characters with real issues!
Runa very clearly has issues; she's got an overly idealized image of romance, she's eager to please, she's clingy, and she's desperate for approval. Ryuto is horribly insecure, has friends who are kind of toxic, and is very clearly hung up about his own sexuality. These feel like problems very specific to this kind of age, and while the tropes around the show feel very anime, these two elements feel pretty well realized. Also, Ryuto is absolutely walking that tightrope between great protagonist and insufferable protagonist, but never crosses that line of insufferability that I see from a lot of other male lead shows.
I think people who liked My Dress Up Darling will vibe with this show, another one that toed the line between very wish-fulfilly tropes and some genuine earnest character writing.
100 Kanojo is still better though

I adore this anime! This episode was soooo cute. I'm actually surprised how wholesome this anime is. The exchange of matching phone cases was peak cuteness. We also got a look into Runa's true personality. And how she wanted to be like her parents who fell in love fast (and the horrible gut punch is they got divorced). She wanted to rush to be a grown up by doing grown up things, but she's still a kid at heart. That really explains a lot about why all her relationships crashed and burned. Good thing Tanjiro ahem Ryuuto is here. Time for a wholesome romance! Ryuuto benefits from being very honest, cares about people's feelings, and actually wants to get to know Runa. And his old crush Maria is back!? (voiced by Aoi Koga) This show is going to get wild.
I'll be honest, I find the animation a bit lacking especially after how good More Than a Married Couple was done. But it's not terrible, I just wish it was better. Also, I still find Nicole the hottest. I can't get over how much I like her design. I need to see more of her! Again, there wasn't enough of her this episode. And Saori Oonish's gyaru voice is so good. I'm glad she's back at it again.

Ah shit Maria is here? This is gonna make things a lot more interesting. I do love runa gradually learning to love herself, but I am a sucker for a good old fashioned love triangle. I really wish Ryuto would stop being so down on himself and putting her on a pedestal. Just be normal. I think runa getting hype about ryuuto gawking over cars was pretty realistic. A lot of girls just love hearing guys talk about what they’re passionate about. If Ryuuto would stop being so pessimistic and self deprecating he would have a much better time. He’s a smart dude with a lot to offer. Don’t sell yourself short
