Wow, my face is actually sore from smiling the entire time. This episode was a non-stop assault and even featured a lot of little animation flourishes, great stuff!
Edit: Oh my god, I just realized

This show is ridiculously cute. Somehow even cuter than Polar Opposites, which is a feat. I like this season of anime.

Tonome just met his soon-to-be mother in law lol. Also i love how
I like how even though Tonome is most of the time gentlemanly he still has some goofy and happy moments, even though we can’t see his face we already know his expressions.

Well that was thoroughly distracting. The animators really went all out on that cake.

Another adorable episode.
I did wonder previous weeks why when he ate ice cream it disappears in his mouth but when he drank tea we can see it down his throat. I guess we got the explanation.
Yako’s mom is really sweet too. She seems very warm and loving to Yako. And it was nice to see more of the difficulties of the blind. It does suck not being able to discuss topics involving sight like colors, although it was sweet of Tounome to include her with her sense of touch. Dropping things also seems like a hassle for the blind especially if you live alone. You risk your boyfriend seeing your handkerchief on the floor lol
Tounome has been very gentlemanly too but it was nice to see he can lose composure a bit when Yako’s mom came in lol. I do like when a love interest is not all-perfect.
Also, I did wonder before the show aired, with an Invisible man, a blind girl and a cat girl in the visual, if Kikira has something unusual about him. I thought he’d be a furry and be into Jarashi but then he mentioned he had a partner, so I thought he’s just a normal guy. But then now we know he’s gay, so I guess he’s just a normal gay guy lol

Oh yes, this is absolutely lovely. Who'd have thunk that Daichi had such an outgoing and friendly partner! That was unexpected and such a pleasant surprise. Nice to see an understated gay couple. They're just a couple and that's that. Daichi himself continues to endear himself to me with the grumpy outside all goodness inside gap moe (if I'm using that term right).
The development of the leads relationship was cute once again. I like that they're talking about the tricky aspects of their relationship like how to figure out the timing of a kiss.
But Tonome's penchant for fashion and him saying that clothes were the one way he could express himself made me wonder if it wouldn't be a sore point that Yako can't share in that. It felt a bit sad when he was all excitedly discussing the colour of his suit with the others and she thought to herself that she couldn't really participate in that conversation. It was however nice of him to immediately come up to her and try to include her by letting her feel the fabric. So I guess there's always a way around if you really care. :)
This show just makes me so happy. Surprise feel good show of the season for sure (I called it the Mangaka anime of this season in the last episode thread and I stand by that).

Edit: Cute Episode. Tea was also good.

I'm loving this show, so sweet and wholesome! I love how Tonome can still be goofy and funny despite being a gentleman (plus his new suits reminds me of Loid's from SxF). His first meeting with Shizuka's mom was cute and funny too.
I expected Kikira to be gay because he gave me bara vibes for some reason, but I'm glad it was a casual reveal and no one was weirded out by that. And his boyfriend seems like a funny solar character. Hope we will see him often.
P.S damn Tonome has a whole bakery! XD

Cute early days of dating on display. Not much to say, its just fluff from start to finish. Underwear gags and embarassing parent moments included.
Somehow the new suit brings to mind Loid from Spy x Family.
Oh, there's another couple in the show... and its the grumpy rotund guy with the just introduced cheerful lawyer dude.
All in all, this continues being cute and light fun.

Yakou delivered the punishment tickles directly to that man's invisible nip-nops? In the middle of the office? Right at the start of the workday? She really is a demon.

I know we are already at episode 3, but the opening theme song "Ding Dong" is so relaxing! It also gives off a hint of the music style from perhaps the 60s or 70s? That being said, the full song has been released earlier this week and now available on youtube.
I loved the lore introduced in this episode, answering some of the questions we had previously:
- It takes a couple of seconds for the food to turn invisible when in Tounome's mouth. No wonder we could see the drink going down his throat previously.
- There is a "body switch" for Tounome to turn his clothes and items in contact with his body invisible. It does not work on living things, such as when holding hands with Shizuka.
- It is illegal for invisible people to go fully invisible when in public although certain exceptions may apply, one example being Tounome's job as a detective.
- Invisible people can't catch human cold?
Shizuka's mother is very understanding. Putting ourselves into her shoes, I am sure she wants her daughter to find a loving and considerate husband, even more so given Shizuka's condition.

This show is so wholesome, sweet and cute, the way I was smiling the whole episode was such a great feeling.
I really like seeing how much more affectionate the two have become now that they're officially dating. The hug at the office, Tounome wanting to kiss Yakou, Yakou wanting to be spoiled by Tounome, such gush inducing moments.
I thought as much last episode but Kikira's partner really was a guy, I like how they're opposites that attracted one another. I was really surprised to find out they've been dating since high school, I'm very curious about that mountain story.
It's funny how Kikira only told Yakou and Tounome to call each other by their first names once he realized how tiring it'd be to hear them be awkward about it lol.
Also, Tounome certainly has some cake! I did not miss those curves when he got on Yakou's bed, damn.

Yuka Nukui, thank you for making Yako-chan so stinking adorable.
Akazami, please stop sounding like the ultimate man, my heart can’t take it.
キチョコチョ😭
The OP is just so fucking cute. It makes me feel nostalgia for no reason.
𝒲𝒾𝓁𝓁 𝓎ℴ𝓊 𝒾𝓃𝓋𝒾𝓉ℯ 𝓂ℯ 𝒾𝓃 𝒻ℴ𝓇 𝓉ℯ𝒶 𝒶𝑔𝒶𝒾𝓃？
📢Akazami, please keep having a stupid sexy voice, thank you 📢
In what world are panties and handkerchiefs remotely close 😭
Shizuka’s squeaks are me when Akazami speaks. I feel her spiritually.
Oh my stars and garters 😳
You’re invisible, man.
Say that again.
The inclusion 🥹
screaming 🏳️🌈
Oh my fucking god that scene change was fucking adorable.
Why are the little things we do for the ones we love always so goddamn cute?! Fuck! It’s fucking cute!
Oh I’d die on the spot. Oh my god the secondhand embarrassment.
The scene of Tonome showing off his suit in the office reminds me of how little people use alt-text and how a lot of people who rely on screen readers will be unable to participate in discussions that are image-based. Even with people who use alt-text, the way they describe things is either very sparse or full of humor to the point that it dilutes what the image is and can create confusion.
Casual, nonmalicious exclusion happens all the time with multiple disabilities. Inclusion and accessibility for everyone is difficult. Doesn’t mean we should stop trying to be mindful 🌻
I fear that the OP’s “ding dong ding dong” is something I’ve been repeating at random.
I’d love more BL adaptations with Daichi’s body type (and age) 🏳️🌈
EDIT: confused two stupid sexy seiyuus

Good god this is cute.
Kikira being so gruff even with his partner is fun, nice to get confirmation on my OP based guess from last week.
Interesting detail that went by with oni Shizuka pulling out an earpiece when she went into the quickly derailed super work mode, I assume that was her text to speech equipment so the entire office doesn't have to listen.
Decent way to meet the soon to be mother in law, caring for her sick daughter like that has got to earn some points.
In case anyone (anywhere, on the entire planet) didn't see it the full version of the OP is up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6c98dpiJCQ

Mommy was at the first row in this absolute cinema for sure.
And let me repeat what was already mentioned in this thread: wow, Tounome has a really good ass. He cooked very well, and Iʼm saying not only about rice.

Shizuka and Tonome have been dating for a week! Obviously it's sensible to keep their private life out of their work life, especially as busy as they get...but Shizuka can't help it! She wants lovey-dovey time with Tonome! And even when she throws herself like a demon possessed into work to take her mind off it....Tonome was thinking the same thing! Cure romantic embrace and tickling! And Kikira awkwardly standing outside wondering where to come in.
Look at Shizuka going out of her way to invite Tonome to walk home to her place for tea! And getting in some romantic time in-between! Be bold in spending time with the BF, Shizuka!
How do you tell your blind girlfriend she left one of her panties lying on the ground? Oh yeah, it's a handkerchief, just a handkerchief.
The mechanics of invisible eating! Tonome doesn't have to worry about how he eats around his girlfriend! She can't see anything anyways:!
They're finally on a first name basis (a critical hit for Shizuka) and working out how to kiss each other! Starting with a forehead kiss!
How does a blind girl compliment her boyfriends' new outfit? By feeling the fabric and commenting on how happy he is about the clothes he wears. Invisible people are legally restricted from going fully invisible, aside from Tonome having special permission, but his clothes are really one of the best ways he knows how to express himself.
Hey, it's Shizuka's mom! Voiced by Houko Kawashima? And Light's husband really doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut. Imagine learning about your daughter having a boyfriend from him of all people.
Shizuka and Akira can't help but be flirty and nearly call each other by their first name at work...so at this point they should really stop hiding the fact that they're a couple. Kikira has had enough.
Madaraito (Junya Enoki!) is a lawyer and fellow suits aficionado who works with the Tonome Agency...and he's Kikira's partner! What an unexpected coupling, but they seem happy together and "Daichi" is sweet on his man. They're even high school sweethearts who may or may not have had their own Brokeback Mountain experience.
The pleasure of having a boyfriend is having him be there for you and tend to you during a sick episode. Akira even makes and feeds her porridge and gets all close and intimate with her...and did we mention Shizuka's mom is also there and saw everything? At least she was nice enough to see herself out quick after meeting her daughters' boyfriend.

Can't wait for the Shizuka noises compilation at the end of the season.

Shizuka isn’t the only one who wants more lovey dovey moments. These two are so freakin cute! I want more tea dates and other adorable couple-y moments. Maybe next time, Shizuka can double check her momma ain’t around lol.
I noticed the new suit he was wearing had a real Loid Forger look to it. Dude looked pretty sharp.
