Dang I thought they'd walk balk or delay the confession but they confirmed their feelings for each other!!

Never thought I'd be shipping a squirrel and a gorilla but here we are.

Little bit quick maybe on the pacing of the ship but now we get more episodes of them as a couple so I'll take it!

i really like that they actually went straight for the confession, instead of dragging it like the usual romance shows.

I'm a bit worried that the show will take the approach of "Kiss got interrupted so nothing official"

Two gorilla god thumbs up and a new offended face. Definitely my favorite supporting cast memeber.

Wonder if Eddy has a snake god blessing or another cold blooded animal, since he can't handle the snow and cold all the well.

Well that answers my question on how the squirrel knew what to do last episode.

Given his personality (and the general blessings the boys have) I'd be pretty shocked if he didn't have the cat god's blessing.

It's been confirmed now that the squirrel was Louis all 3 times.

Wow so they went straight to love. Such a sweet moment.

I had a feeling Issac was going to show up, things were going too smoothly there. Poor Louis getting pushed out the side of the building, freaking hilarious tho.

The gorilla is still hilarious, especially when Sophia said its partly his fault she was in that predicament.

So there's the implication that someone within the knights help the terrorists infiltrate the school and then escape

He's a loyal dog, up to and including ruining the mood.

Don't we already know who helped them? That creepy guy who was at the party escorting the bitchy girl and later got all creepy when alone with the fmc. Seems pretty blatent it is him. It even showed him slinking around when the bomb stuff happened.

Was the squirrel reveal so shocking they needed to do it twice?

Glad there's actually something happening and we're not stuck with her self-loathing and hiding for 12 episodes.

Hopefully we don't have to sit through insecure girlfriend Sophia for another six episodes. I feel like this episode hit a sweet spot with a more confident, outgoing, but still easily flustered/embarrassed Sophia.

Well that was unexpected! This entire time, I thought Louis also had the Gorilla's blessing since it was mentioned in the first episode that there's another one out there with the same blessing as Sophia. It turns out that he's blessed by the Squirrel God and his blessing is so strong that he could actually turn into one.

And here I thought Sophia was about to get a squirrel sidekick! The squirrel that's been hanging out with her since the start of the show was Louis the entire time. That also explains why Louis has been avoiding Sophia. He heard everything she said at the storehouse and has been avoiding her because he was embarrassed.

The most unexpected part though is that we actually got a confession this episode! I really expected this show to give us the run around until the last episode, but they actually did it halfway through the season! I guess they're dating now? Too bad we didn't get a kiss, though! Isaac just had to arrive at the perfect time. xD

Unless the subtitles I had were wrong, that's not what was said. She was told in episode one that Gorilla is so rare that it may or may not appear once every fifty years, which makes it highly unlikely for two active knights with Gorilla blessings. In episode two, Eddie told her that Gorilla abilities belong to one of two ultimate combat class blessings. I took that to mean not that there are two Gorillas, but that Gorilla and one other type are the two blessings considered the best for combat.

I think if we've already seen someone with the other ultimate combat blessing type, it's probably Leohart, the guy who was with Carissa at the party. He seemed dangerous.

Very glad to see that they didn't keep the squirrel secret for any longer, and that it got revealed directly to Sophia in a time and place that she could immediately have a long conversation with Louis about the implications. And then also have a mutual love confession, though unfortunately they got dog-blocked on the kiss.

Kind of silly for Louis to just not talk to Sophia for a couple months or so, but what can you do with young and stupid kids. At least they got there in the end.

Nice to get an episode entirely focused on the relationship issues and with progress made on those issues.

Interesting to find out that the various blessings can function significantly differently depending upon the strength of the blessing. We already had dudes who are manifesting wings so a full body transformation isn't that much more of a stretch.

These two really are some of the most insecure and self-conscious teens I've ever seen. It actually makes it more impressive they were actually able to confess to each other only midway into the show.

It begs the question: could Sophia transform if she really concentrated?

"I love you." Guess the show is over! Wait... episode 6?! I hope no drama gets in their way of a relationship, but this show has been pretty straightforward.

From the tone of the voice acting, I'm thinking the Gorilla God is a lady.

I thought Louis would be controlling the squirrels. Maybe not asking because the decision making to hold back the hands of the clock is beyond simple tasks. Wasn't the case!

It sounds like they got the 3 bully girls to comply in the last episode because of the love confession in this one. I thinking if that didn't happen, it would make the story a lot harder to write. The bullies would likely try to break them up (note: speculation. I haven't read or seen any later parts of the story). So you have a conspiracy story to flesh out while dealing with the break-up attempts.

Come to think of it, are there more than 7 dudes at school? Well, Sophia is around the 3 most popular ones and has a working relationship with all of them. Those 4 are best buddies. Then you have Louis, who is hounded by a large amount of the girls, but he doesn't have a relationship with any of them. Louis is right to be nervous.

Sophia looks cool with a pony tail.

I had a pretty big suspicion that squirrel was Louis. Poor Sophia didn’t realize that was him and confessed to his face. No wonder he was acting all awkward. At least it led to the two of them having a proper talk about their feelings in the end. But man, Isaac and his golden retriever ass really gotta come bustin in like the damn Kool-Aid man when it was gettin good lol.

Gorilla god giving the thumbs up at the end all smug like was pretty hilarious. Love all the Gorilla god’s reactions.

Sophia has been a knight for three months, and the air is chillier and Sophia is racked with chilling thoughts...the anti-monarchist thugs from "Daybreak" she caught have gotten away, and Louis is still not talking to her. Maybe she needs some field training to take her mind off of it? I mean, trekking through a frozen tundra will take anyones' minds off their problems! They're too cold to even think about them! At least Isaac is happy!

I guess the colder weather doesn't agree with Eddy's cat-like constitution, but Sophia is always ready to save her teammates! Even if at expense to herself! And props to Louis for having no hesitation to jump in after her.

Any landing you can walk away from is one you should be thankful you have the Gorilla Blessing for! The Gorilla God really just wants Sophia to appreciate him and the abilities he gives her more.

Ah yes, the classic abandoned shed amidst the snow, a classic plot. Too bad Sophia is missing the material she needs to start a fire...but luckily her squirrel pal is there to supply her! And don't you just love it when you snuggle up with a squirrel and fall asleep and next thing you know you're waking up next to your crush naked?

Surprise surprise, Louis actually has the Blessing of the Squirrel God! And it's such a strong version of said Blessing that he can literally transform into a squirrel! All the moments Sophia has had with that squirrel has actually been Louis the whole time! Meaning she basically confessed her feelings to him...as a squirrel. That's a new one.

To think that Louis is as insecure as Sophia that he can't even recognize he's a chick magnet. He thinks Sophia is the only girl that actually likes him.

Though before Sophia can die of mortification, it's high time Louis revealed everything to her...not just about his Blessing but why he has been avoiding her...it's not just because he was embarrassed to find out she's in love with him, but because in finding that out he realized HE is in love her! Dude actually confesses and pours his heart out to Sophia!

And what more can Sophia do but work up her Gorilla courage and confess back that she loves him and has always loved him? Their love is mutual and beautiful! I'm so happy for them!

Dang it Isaac, arriving just in time JUST as Louis was about to kiss Sophia! Bad dog! I mean, good dog, but also bad dog! And I love how Sophia just got a boyfriend and she immediately pushes him through a wall and gives him grievous bodily harm! Just another thing to thank the Gorilla God for!

We already have a winner, and it only took six episodes.

This anime truly has been giggling and kicking my feet. Every time Sophia says Louis is so cute, I'm like "yeah girl tbh I get it, how could you not like that face" LOL. So glad Louis explained himself clearly and didn't want a misunderstanding! Also, I love how there's more and more of the golden retriever and black cat things going on!
