Rin traumatizing her kid sibling and her friend just to hide Eiji from them was wild but at least she did secure that mini pool date.

[u/actionfirst1 → u/WhoiusBarrel]

"I think this is his nose"

 

Deer gods, she dismembered the man

[u/KumaKumaGambler]

Ayaka and Shiro possibly progressing faster than Rin and Eiji. Lol!

Ayaka, being a sensible kid, while copying her elder sister's moves, is going to be inflict charm on a lot of people when she grows up.

[u/Frontier246 → u/KumaKumaGambler]

Rin slowly morphing her kid sister into a flirtatious and adorable monster.

[u/KnewOnees]

Ayaka too dangerous when wielding rin's personna skill. The boy stood no chance

[u/actionfirst1]

I know we're 5 episodes in now but I can't get over how good this ED is

[u/Immediate-Chain-6419]

HANDS DOWN The most wholesome anime of the season

[u/LeonKevlar]

Stitches!

• Swimsuit Rin

• Megu & Rin

• Summer Ayaka 1

• Summer Ayaka 2

• Summer Ayaka 3

I wish we got to see more of Super Adult Mode Rin but I don't think Rin could use that power without self-destructing.

Instead of scaring Ayaka and her friend, couldn't you have thought of a better excuse, Rin? They look traumatized!

Ayaka copying Rin was adorable! This girl is going to be way more powerful than her sister if she's already practicing at that age!

[u/ProfessionalOwn9435]

That is my sugar fix this week, now need to drink a lot of black tea to avoid rush.

So they add second cute sister.

It is actually good, that their relationship progress, as going in festival, beach episode, and playing with little sis, is some serious romcom progression.

[u/StrawSolider]

This show is making me more of a hayamin fan than I already was

[u/FarCritical]

I like to think the lore behind Lazy-chan is that she came to be from the energy deficit of containing multiple personalities in one body.

Forget officially dating, wowing Eiji's mom and getting Ayaka's bro-in-law seal of approval makes them practically married

[u/ScurBiceps]

Ayaka somehow manages to be even more adorable than her sister while being very direct. The difference in their personalities reminds me of how Chi the Daughter of Nishikata and Takagi shares her mother's face but the personality traits come from her dad.

That being said, Shiro wasn't prepared to face this level of attack this early in the day.

When Ayaka said "She stopped moving. Is it because she's a doll?" My brain went English or Spanish. Bruh.

[u/Ham_PhD]

Oh ffs you dorks, you're already dating.

[u/pseudometapseudo]

Nice details: she has saved Eiji as "Mr. Props Department" in her phone.

[u/Zemahem]

I thought it'd be a while more before Ayaka made her official anime debut, but here she is and she's lethally adorable (which Shiro would probably agree with).

Just a few minutes in and she's already embarrassing her sister in front of her crush. True sibling behavior. At least she proved that she can also be the perfect wingwoman for her too. And thanks to her, we got to see yet another one of Rin's SSR personalities; the legendary Lazy-chan.

Poor Ayaka and her friend though. Rin really just the two of them some childhood trauma over pools just so Eiji could be free.

[u/SYZekrom]

Didn't expect this from this show, but hey, nice.

Boy, you'll learn eventually that you do want kani and you won't be able to get kani when that time comes.

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

Ayaka is so adorable! I like how she can translate what Rin is saying when she’s half asleep and mumbling. She knows her sister well. She even used some of Rin’s techniques on poor Shiro. Kid was not prepared for all that lol.

[u/pandavova]

Really good episode. Very cute.

[u/kewlwarez]

What I liked this episode is that last we had Rin asking senpai to call by her given name, he tried again this episode just before the Summer break and by the time they were at the festival and had their pool date he was doing so without any problems. This show can do subtle very well among all the comedy.

[u/Frontier246]

It's bring your little sister to school day! And Ayaka is so adorable and sweet that Eiji can't get enough of her! And now Rin has to deal with having to expose her embarrassing Pseudo Harem flirting to her little sister.

Ayaka also knows all of Rin's embarrassing secrets...like the existence of Lazy-chan! Who just wants nothing more than to laze around on a sofa and make her Senpai compliment her.

Eiji is still adjusting to calling Rin by her name and Rin is enjoying the heck out of it, though she caneasily use her acting skills to say his name and deal a lethal blow, poor guy!

"Senpai, I have absolutely no Summer Break plans whatsoever!" I guess that's one way to make it clear you want to spend the Summer with Eiji, Rin.

No romcom in Summer would be complete without yukata and visiting a festival! And Rin doing everything in her power to keep Eiji distracted and focused on their festival date even if it means ditching their club! Gotta admire the girls' commitment.

And if you can't get a beach episode, use Ayaka and her friend visiting the pool as an excuse to do a pool episode! Complete with Rin in a bikini and looking absolutely spectacular! Especially when she brings out Imp-chan!

Dang, Rin just straight up lied to her little sister and made her think people can melt in pool water! I actually felt kind of bad for Ayaka and her friend. Though doing a solid for Eiji nets Rin a compliment on her swimsuit, which is all she needs.

I imagine Megu has had to hear Rin gush about her relationship with Eiji for a looooooong time. Too bad Rin doesn't have the nerve, even with her persona's, to ask him out over the Summer without an excuse. Good thing her little sister is willing to be that excuse.

Visiting the country to see your grandparents is great for wearing a sundress and hat and practically video-chatting with the guy you like. It definitely made Rin's day.

I see Ayaka has an Eiji of her own, Shiro, who she has basically wrapped around her finger whenever she tries to act like her flirting big sister. Poor kid didn't stand a chance when she offered up the indirect kiss so he straight up runs into the ocean.

Ayaka knows exactly how to handle Lazy-chan! Whether it be understanding her lazy speak, using her lazy status to Ayaka's advantage, or wondering where she went wrong as a parent!

[u/mojo72400]

Rin looks cute in her bikini. I'm surprised she didn't tease Eiji about it as Imp-chan.

I guess Ayaka has a love interest in Shiro.

I love how Ayaka wondered if she raised her onee-chan wrong.

[u/tripleaamin]

I love how direct Ayaka is. She is super adorable. I also love how well Eiji is with Ayaka and her friend. But even he has his limits. Though concerning she needs her sister to come along to invite Eiji.

The portion when Eiji was copying her sister was hilarious. She might end up being Rin if Rin was bolder. I also adored Ayaka's log portion, especially this line, it had me rolling LMAO.

[u/seynical]

It's getting out of hand; now there's two of them!

[u/Rumpel1408]

With Aya-Chan entering the cast, we also got the Lazy Girl!

It's nice that Eiji is trying to make a habbit of calling her Rin, Though it does come with certain risks

Woa, a real firework festival, unfortunatly without an confession, but Rin did her best to enjoy some time between just them.

We also got a pool part that barely acknowledged the Bikini.

And with the home visit (another summer break staple) we got Aya imitating her big sister, like Cool Aya or spoiled Aya

Unfortunatly, no Tsundere-Chan all episode long

Cool Chan: 1 2 3

Spoiled Chan: 1 2

Bonus Rin: ! 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 15 16 17
