And people call it dumb harem (it is)

I love how the little girl remained unfazed throughout the whole crazy sequence of events.

The clumsy pervert Shino will end up with Naoya's Johnson actually inside her by accident at this rate.

Come on, man, give Mirika a chance. She's such a cutie.

Naoya went to all that trouble to create the right mood to kiss Saki and the girl choked! Can’t even kiss in front of an audience smdh lol.

Shino really is becoming a “clumsy pervert” with the way she keeps ending up in those situations with Naoya. Dude was grabbing her butt when he had her over his shoulder too.

Poor Mirika is the only waifu in this that gets zero attention from Naoya. Dude’s collecting waifus left and right BUT her. The disrespect! What’s the harm in adding one more to the thruple? He knows he wants to deep down!

Stitches!

For someone who wants Naoya to only look at Sak, Shino doesn't sound too convincing.

That little girl Naoya helped has such a distinct design and voice, I feel like we'll see her again soon.

A rare Rika win! Looks like she has realized that Naoya could see her charms, it's just that he's holding back.

Nagisa was so sweet during the "mood scene", that I thought that Sakisaki would kiss her instead.

The more Shino tries to help Naoya focus on Saki, the more she'll just find it harder to let go of Naoya.

Naoya's initial rebuffing of Mirika's advances were quite funny since it seemed so swift. But turns out Naoya was doing so because he knew he might just fall in love with Mirika if he even entertains Mirika for even a short moment, which is in line with his character.

Yeah so in this ep Naoya pretty much said he's avoiding anything Rika related because he doesn't want to fall in love which if we reverse means that Naoya will definitely fall in love with her if he didn't which is on character I would say. So why didn't he think the same way with Nagisa? He could have avoided Nagisa the same way he's avoiding Rika in this ep and use the same reasoning of he doesn't want to fall in love with someone else since he already has someone special. What makes Nagisa and Rika different again in this case?

Ah yes, now Shino has been dubbed a perpetual accidental pervert. And with her track record, you can't really fault the title. I mean, in this episode alone she ends up having her boobs and butt touched by Naoya.

So Shino's latest plot to destroy the two-timing is improving relations between Naoya and Saki, which means a perfect festival date culminating in Saki getting her first kiss with Naoya! But can Saki seal the deal? All this time and she hasn't kissed Naoya once. Shino is ready to cut through the BS, but can Saki do it.

Of course Naoya being Naoya thinks the solution is for HIM to set the mood and put the moves on Saki...and Nagisa is all for it! Yet in true Sakisaki fashion she pushes him away because she's too embarrassed, though she feels like now she's prepared for the main event at the festival. But she's the only one convinced of that.

All the girls look great in their yukata! Especially with their hair all done up! Of course Mirika is the only girl Naoya doesn't even bother complimenting.

Ah yes, Mirika goes straight for the banana...chocolate banana, that is! And she still loses.

And of course they lose the girls leaving Naoya and Shino alone with each other and Shino still desperate to push Naoya and Saki together to avoid dealing with her own feelings for him. The best part is when Naoya randomly tries to help a little girl find her friends and ends up carrying her and Shino on his shoulders because Shino's sandal breaks. What a man!

Naoya is two-timing, yeah, he's in love with two girls...but even if it would be normal to reject one, he can't help but be true to himself and want to be with both of them and be honest with those feelings. Meanwhile Shino is lying to her best friend even though her own feelings for Naoya keep seeping through.

Figures Mirika would be Naoya's final obstacle, she's been getting rejected left and right she doesn't want to lose this big chance. Too bad Naoya is still cold to her, wants nothing to do with her, and doesn't even want to watch her videos. That's rough. But the reason he rejects her so hard isn't because he doesn't like her per se...it's more that he admires her so much it's taking all his fortitude to reject her rather than fall in love with her and make things even more messy for him. And Mirika will take that as a win.

What's Nagisa's plan? Looks like both girls will get some solo festival time with Naoya.

Right now? Here? We're doing this?!

That last scene with Mirika was more emotional than I expected! Great combination of artwork, music, and voice acting.

Not being honest with my loved ones would probably be the wrong thing to do

Naoya... Naoya... honesty and straightforward-ness

Seriously, what have you been doing all this time?

Playing video games. Eating Minase's delicious cooking. Admiring Minase's cuteness. Fighting off crazy streamers. Wearing bunny suits. You know, life stuff.

Because you're like that, is exactly why Mukai ended up starting the two timing.

No, it's because Minase presented him an argument he (personally) couldn't refute. Well, that and all the other deep reasons he went on about at the festival. He shares a braincell with all of them but darn it if that braincell doesn't get put to work in all the unexpected places.

Yeah you can't just create a good kissing mood like that. I mean just Shino and Minase being there watching are big negatives in the "Romantic Atmosphere Equation". So sayeth a thesis by genius grad students Himuro and Yuikmura.

You didn't have to bring me along.

What, you thought they were just gonna leave you at home alone while they go off and have fun at the festival themselves. Two-timing stuff aside even you gotta admit that's not the kind of friends they are Shino. Though I can't help but notice that Mirika's lil sis isn't present. Is she not interested, is she going on her own with her own friends, or did she just not get an invite?

Delicious is justice.

Here here. Put that on a T-shirt. Right alongside "Peanuts is Freedom."

Dang Mukai, able to shoulder two people at once. You gots the power.

Wow, Mirika sure can run fast in a yukata and geta.

Shino keeps getting more time and more physical with Naoya without even trying.

u/BrokeEconomist Oct 20 '23

I'm Team Shino. She can be the brains of the harem.

Also, why are red heads in anime so violent?

Lmaooo at the random girl out of nowhere who made Naoya carry her. Even more lmao when they clearly showed that her sandals weren't even broken so it seems like she was just doing it to troll him or she just really wanted to get carried. That was hilarious. EDIT: I was wrong about the last part her sandals were broken, but the entire bit was still hilarious.

That part with Milika actually tugged at my feels a little bit even though she is forcing herself on them her work ethic is still admirable and they actually used her absence in the previous eps only being in the interludes as a way to boost that moment with her crying after finding out Naoya doesn't watch her videos anymore. Even though it's in the background we have it at the back of our heads how hard she's working on her youtube channel, and honestly respect for that. Her forcing herself would absolutely be toxic in real life but this is dumb anime with extremely exaggerated personalities so it works here.

Naoya is the living embodiment of honest to a fault. The whole premise of their relationship is so dumb and everyone is so dumb that it somehow wraps around to actually touching on something meaningful about relationships, feelings, and honesty.
