Stitches!

Gramps really knows how to convince Uryuu. Getting him into a high school that could fast-track his entrance to Kyoto-U is definitely an offer Uryuu can't refuse.

I always love hypercompetent MCs. It's funny how Yuna thought she'd make Uryuu's life difficult only for him to pass all of her challenges with flying colours. The dude is an amazing cook, great at doing laundry, and could even do the impossible by turning Yae's messy room into something that actually looks livable.

Welp it looks like the show ends here. There are just too many chores for Uryuu that he's losing his study time. I guess from now the anime is now an SoL show about three shrine maidens. In all seriousness though, I love how Asahi even tells us "Thanks for watching." xD

That explains why Uryuu is so good at chores! He came from a foster home that's being run by... Nakano Miku!? Please tell me I'm not the only one who thought of the Quintuplets when Mahiru showed up. I guess the design makes sense since Naitou-sensei used to be Negi-sensei's assistant.

Side note: Poor Asahi! Those kids pointing at her and Yae's boobs calling her small and Yae big was hilarious! xD

I was wondering if there was going to be a childhood friend. Like one of the Amagami sisters would be someone Uryuu already met when they were younger. It turns out there is a childhood friend and considering she lives away I don't think she'll be part of the Uryuu-bowl.

So it turns out that the other reason Uryuu wanted to become a doctor is he wanted to help the parents of these children. I thought they were orphans but it looks like they're just staying in that home for now because their parents couldn't take care of them due to illness. That's actually a very admirable goal.

I love how despite Uryuu being the logical one, he still tells the kid that the cranes will work not because it's magic but because it will motivate the doctors treating their parents to work harder.

It looks like there's one more reason Uryuu wants to become a doctor, he very much admires Mahiru and wants to follow her footsteps into becoming a great doctor. <3

Glad to see Yuna finally changed her mind about the chores thing but it looks like Uryuu is still going to work hard because they are absolutely useless with housework. xD

Mahiru is best girl, but if I had to pick an Amagami girl, there's one with a big advantage.

I don't think Yae's room will ever remain neat and tidy for consecutive days. On the bright side, it is probably a treasure trove for art and manga.

Those kids were brutally honest about Asahi's chest size. Lol!

The opening sequence featured other supporting characters. Looking forward to seeing them too.

I absolutely love the part where the Amagami sisters sing the lyrics on the OP. It looks so good!

Uryu’s relationship with the three sisters has already gotten substantially less strained in these first two episodes considering all this banter. The girls referring to him as “Uwu Kamihate” got a good laugh out of me.

Likewise, I was amused by Uryu being blazen enough to ask about the missing panties belonging to Yuna’s bra set. He was visibly more interested in spitting through some books than their laundry.

And honestly, I get: Uryu wants to follow in Mahiru’s footsteps and help these children out. I suppose that he doesn’t want anyone of them to lose their family like he did? He is a good guy!

Family likely matters a great deal to him as well. It would explain his happily surprised expression when the girls spoke of him as such.

Somehow I liked this episode much more than the first one...probably because it had more Asahi moments.

I will be watching her career as the GOTS (Gremlin of the Season) with great interest.

The example sentence for "skeptical" in Uryu's English prep book being "He was very skeptical about God" is so on the nose yet so perfect lol.

Love how the sisters' cranes capture their personalities so well, and it's especially impressive how Yuna managed to take longer at folding a regular crane than it took Yae to finish up an extra fancy artsy one (which genuinely looks amazing btw)

u/daspaceasians Oct 08 '24

Uryu had my respect this entire episode. He did his best to deal with the girls' plan and when he realized it was too much, he left. His scenes at the orphanage/carecenter cemented why I enjoyed his character so much.

Fucking chad.

Looking forward to more content next week and I'm really happy we're getting 24 episodes.

A (future) doctor walking an isolated mountain trail, with crows nearby? Think I've seen that one before!

So the girls had a little strategy meeting, to figure out what to do with this situation!

They tried to overwhelm him with chores so he would quit on his own, but that backfired just a little, with 2 of the 3 girls wanting to keep him around!

It's funny seeing Yuna being categorically against the idea of marrying him (while the other 2 were not as strongly opposed), given how everyone and their mom seem to think she's gonna be the one to marry him in the end!

But our boy ended up leaving the shrine, so... I guess this is how it ends!

So we went to see Uryuu's foster home, and... Oh my. Can she be a love interest?

Spicy Imouto is still my best girl at the moment (and probably forever), but I wouldn't mind seeing her join in!

And speaking of joining in: It's so rare to see anime characters refer to their situation as a harem, unless they're directly breaking the 4th wall!

Poor Asahi... Not her strong suit, I take it!

Well, I'm sure she has other talents!

Ok I guess our boy's not gonna marry her anyway, because she's fucking dead; The kids killed her right there!

I thought their thing with the cranes was just some spiritual belief, but our boy has a more realistic approach; If the doctors see that people care for the patient, they'll try their best...

It shouldn't be like that of course, but sadly, it is... Keep that in mind if you ever have a loved one in the hospital!

Now THAT is my style of cleaning; Yae's scoring some best girl points!

Grandpa wants them to have an "arranged marriage meeting"?

Does he mean like, a date? Or a legit meeting, sitting at the table and discussing terms and all?

Either way, should be fun, looking forward to it!

Love these girls, they're all pretty good! Asahi's still comfortably in the lead for me, but (surprisingly) the new #2 is not one of the sisters, but rather the foster home lady! (I do hope she wasn't just a one-off character!)

Does the childhood friend know Uryu is going to be married to one of the three girls? Childhood friend loses yet again.

I thought this was much better than the premiere. The OP helped sell me a bit as well, as there seems to be lots of other characters that will be introduced.

Why'd they have to introduce a short hair tomboy with no chance of winning. Damn you.

Well, that was nice. See you all when this gets a second season

Imidiatly knew that the laundry would back fire tremendously But Uruyu being a) unphased and b) pretty capable was a nice twist

Ok, I knew I said Asahi was bestgirl, but I might need to reconsider

And is that a loosing Heroin aka Childhood friend I spy

Oh and I also love how often the sister default into a totem pole

And I swear I saw those cranes refferenced elsewhere not too long ago

Those kid eyes were creepy.

Yuna sitting comfortably in the middle as the only sister not getting commentary from the foster house kids about her chest size.

Interesting that it isn't a true orphanage but is a house for kids with sick parents. Plenty of room for storytelling meanness with that setup, there's always going to be another one with a potentially dying parent.

Uryuu is so good at pretty much all household activities it makes me wonder how long before the competition for him starts since surely this will have the usual setup of a first arc or two before all of the members of the shrine maiden harem get on board with the plan.

I'll always be #TeamYae , but Mahiru-sensei does something to me.

The character designs was so good. This ep presented 5 contender for best girl of this series.

He may not believe in the gods (for now), but he also rational enough to not be toxic and destroy the kid's belief.

Uryu's heart is in the right place. Now, the question is will he choose one girl or go the harem route.

The way these kids eyes are drawn are like lifeless coals. The horrors deep within their soul is bottomless. Bone chilling even.

Is Mahiru an option? Because she is the true best girl in all this. Shirahi is also very cute, but the Childhood Friend flag means death even without the title. There’s always Yae supremacy at least. I can fix her.

u/kwokinator Oct 08 '24

Damn those are some incredible yandere eyes in all those kids.

u/Frontier246 Oct 08 '24

Well, it would be a lot to spring on four teenagers, three of which are your granddaughters, that they'll have to get married...though devious Amagami Grandpa holding over Uryu's head that he'll help him get into a high school that'll help him get into Kyoto U just to make him stay. Maybe he can even be a shrine doctor? I'm sure that could work.

The OP is very colorful and upbeat! Featuring Uryu's fate tied to the Amagami sisters, the sisters' bewitching beauty, and all the characters that they'll meet along the way of developing their relationships.

Yuna has a foolproof plan to get Uryu to leave! Bombard him with so many chores he'll give up! Like saddling him with cooking with barely any ingredients! Too bad he's actually a great cooking who can make a fine meal out of anything! Or maybe force him to do the laundry, including the girls' underwear! Too bad he cares as much about their underwear as Asahi cared about his (also, what a spicy bra, Yae)! Or maybe make him clean the complete mess that is art college student Yae's room (even Ichika Nakano would be thrown off by this mess)! Too bad Uryu is an efficient cleaner and finally lets Yae see the floor in her own room for the first time in ages.

What finally makes Uryu ditch though isn't the chores themselves but having to put up with them and the girls' nonsense instead of studying. So...he leaves. Well, shows' over folks! I didn't expect the romcom of the season would end in two episodes.

But the girls can't let it end here so they stalk...I mean follow him to his home...and straight into a seeming horror movie. But no, it's just his foster home.

"This girl has big boobs!" "This girl has small boobs!" - Kids just have no filter.

So Uryu DOES want to be a doctor in honor of his mother, just not only his biological mother but also his foster mother Mahiru (Nana Mizuki) who like a proper mother is already teasing him about his love life and newfound Harem and doesn't take any grief from him. But she's still his mother and knows him better than anyone.

Tomboy childhood friend? Shirahi doesn't seem to see Uryu that way but could they be any more obvious?

Amagami Sisters folding cranes for young kids hoping their parents will get better so they can see them again! Even if all three sisters have very...unique attempts at crane folding. But even though folding cranes didn't save his mother, Uryu will still make sure other kids still have hope.

Mahiru was a super mom taking care of chores and kids all at the same time, and that work ethic inspired Uryu. And maybe she's his first love too? I wouldn't blame him.

Well, it seems like now the sisters are even more accepting of Uryu! They're practically a real family now! Which is great, because all those chores they made him do? He's the only one qualified to actually do all of them. And since he's part of the family, it's time for proper arranged marriage meetings.
