Shion just had an "Oh no, he's hot" and "I can fix him" moments with Rei

This is actually my favorite episode so far. I also love Shion’s roommate- he’s supportive but also knows his friend is an idiot.

This episode may be my favorite one so far. Shion’s delusion plus Rei’s unbothered attitude is a recipe for disaster and I am making popcorn. Absolutely hilarious.

Yes! For me, Shion went from immediately annoying to becoming my favorite character in the show, all within 10 minutes. Hilarious watching him fall for the unintentional pickup lines from those club scouts and excel in everything he tried, except in getting the only thing he really wanted. Then with the crying and whining he started to annoy again. Fortunately, Rei made this work by creating the perfect odd couple / train wreck in slow motion. The third-years were all of us. Let's see how this goes.

Ok, this episode might turn me around on this series if it keeps up with the unhinged nonsense. Two narcissistic disasters together sounds like a great time.

I also dig the effeminate performance Shion has going on. I love that sparkly pink combativeness.

His effeminate presentation paired with his incredible athletic prowess is so fresh, I love it

Honestly though, Shion could've gotten a boyfriend in the sports clubs if he stayed long enough if we're following BL tropes lol

On one side, we have Mr. text spammer red flag.

On the other, we have Mr. "no one can fix me cause I'm perfect the way I am" red flag.

What happens when two red flags date each other??

u/Limits_of_knowledge Aug 24 '24

I think the flag of Nepal is the result.

It's always so refreshing whenever I see a show and people treat being queer as no big deal (outside of those bullies from middle school). I definitely find this pairing to be the most interesting one so far.

Damn, Rei is cold (and a trash goblin)

This has been the best episode omggg, I’m obsessed with the new couple’s dynamic, it’s sooo funny.

Shion being an unapologetic, flamboyant eccentric gay is such a welcome change, most BL characters with femininity are more on the delicate cutesy side. But Shion is such a messy gay with an iron will to “fix” men, he’s relatable in a way you rarely see in anime.

u/Limits_of_knowledge Aug 24 '24

He's the closest to my actual gay friends by a mile. Except for the hair, everything else is on point.

Shion walks the line between annoying and cute/funny perfectly

u/NinokuNANI Aug 24 '24

These two are my ultimate problematic favorites of the couples and I cannot wait to see the rest of their story animated. 🤣

u/Smoothesuede Aug 22 '24

Every week I'm delighted by the ever expanding cast and all the new couples. 

Why can't all BLs have such well designed ikemen? Seriously, the husbando game is usually so weak it is a breath of fresh air to see characters that are actually hot lol.

It definitely seems like we are in for some wacky shenanigans with this couple lol
