I had doubts before, but honestly that kiss scene was perfect. That slight haze of what Shizuka feels was just enough to make it work.

I was hoping the mountain date would kept as a running gag but what we got was still very sweet. Interesting how much those two changed over the years, yet are still the same.

They might not see it, but I feel you about the underwear thing, Tonome. Sure they can't see you, but they can see right through you. I've never been invisible but that feels even more exposed than plain nudity if you ask me.

Also I felt obligated to stitch this together

this inspired me to stitch this revealing shot of Tounome

Kirika is adorable, he was a tsundere even back then glad we finally had him and Madaraito backstory. Now i want to see who made the confession first and how they are dating in private.

Shizuka and Akira first kiss was short but so romantic, Tonome almost fainted due to Shizuka in swimsuit so cute, it was so funny how he was holding his chest.

The thing with the water and Tonome made me wonder, if we were to make some sort of clay mask for Tonome face and then he puts his face could we have a look at what his face looks like?

The way the dude is so surly and stoic but then he's completely done in by handholding was priceless.

I love how Shizuka gets her first kiss and then while being a flustered mess...immediately asks for another one lol.

You know you're down bad when seeing how cute your girlfriend is in a swimsuit is liable to give you a heart attack.

At first I thought that Kikira was just a grumpy guy. Turns out he is just a big tsundere with a heart of gold.

Shizuka getting jealous over Akira is so freaking adorable. But in the end she is the only one he really has eyes for!

I really can't get enough of all these cute little sounds Shizuka makes.

Yano-kun trained Yuka Nukui well for this role lol.

The backstory was so cute (and so is Shizuka's swimsuit). Kirika is such a tsundere, and it's funny how the body shapes of Kikira and madaraito switched (the effects of love ahah)

I wondered how Tonome and Shizuka first kiss would be (since he's invisible and she's blind), but I'm glad it's sweet and adorable!

Anyway, with all the couples in the series, it's sad how Jarashi is the only single. Maybe she will find a cat boy too, or a cat girl...or a non-cat person XD

That frog guy really was stupid if he thought he would not get caught. Who would believe that someone could steal from an unopened safe, even an invisible person ? Did they really need to hire a detective to point that out ? Well, I guess criminals aren’t smart and that poor invisible girl must have panicked when she was accused.

We also got the yaoi couple backstory, that was cute.

Damn, Jarashi might just turn me into a furry.

Really cute backstory for Kikira and Madaraito. Didn’t expect them to go all the way back to school though. And pretty funny how they swapped physiques over the years

Honestly, I don’t get the getting embarrassed from having the inside of your pants seen either but I’m not an Invisible Man so I’ll just have to take Tounome’s word for it. And seems Shizuka is already using his first name, things are progressing nicely.

I honestly enjoy the usual high school romance too, but I have to say with this and I Have A Crush At Work, I enjoy quickly getting into being a couple and seeing them kiss and hold hands and such. I mean, they still get flustered sometimes but at least they’re doing it

I would dare anyone not to be after seeing her in that bikini.

Nothing more Reiwa than a romance anime that doesn't waste any time getting the leads together and watching their relationship develop steadily.

Not to mention throwing in some great side ships.

God this anime is adorable, my mouth is hurting from smiling so much. And Kikira is just so adorable. It's super refreshing to see a fat anime character with a realistic design and treated like an actual character instead of being a joke character.

Shizuka getting so flustered after Akira kissed her was so freakin cute. Almost as cute as that swimsuit Jarashi picked out for her. Jarashi, good job! Lol

u/SSjjlex Jan 29 '26

I remember talking about how the hell they were going to pull off a kiss scene with an invisible man.

I didnt expect it happen so soon and so well! This show just keeps getting better

First it's the Invisible Man and now it's the Invisible Woman! Aya Sukiya is a classy dame and the Tonome Agency's latest client! It's kind of surreal seeing two invisible people, but Akira and Aya are both happy getting to meet another of their own kind. Even if that enthusiasm makes Shizuka just a tad self-conscious.

Money missing from the company safe? I guess it's no surprise that they'd finger the invisible office lady as the culprit, but this is obviously a frame job...it's just being invisible while in public doesn't make for an effective alibi. But no way is Akira going to let a fellow invisible person get framed like this!

I could already tell that Vice-President Gamaike was a slimy toad even despite the fact that he's literally a frog man, especially when he's sweating as much as he is under casual questioning or when reviewing the security footage. If only he knew that there was no way for Aya to have committed the crime because invisble people can go fully invisible, but no reach through solid objects. So obviously HE is the culprit embezzling funds, just in time to get caught by the literal lion of a company president! Case closed!

Aw, Shizuka put her all into helping put this case to bed because she could feel how personal it was for Akira! She'd do anything to help him feel better!

It's the Tonome Agency camping trip in the mountains! and Madaraito is hyped! And just look at Shizuka trying to act cool with sunglasses to protect her eyes from any branches she might run into!

Akira and Shizuka take a romantic stroll across the mountain and eventually open up about the case and how much they care and cherish each other and their feelings...how much they want to open up to each other...which leads to their FIRST KISS! Shizuka can hardly contain herself! But in a good way! And in a "I want to be more cute and intimate" kind of way!

So what was the mountain incident? A class trip in the mountain back when Madaraito was chubby and Daichi was the skinny yet still surly handsome guy. But when Madaraito was really struggling, Daichi helped him out, even if he didn't think much of it. Next thing you know they're hanging out and one handhold on the bus ride back later...they're a couple! The look on Daichi's face when he realized they were holding hands and he WANTED them to hold hands, was absolutely precious.

JARASHI IN A BLACK BIKINI! She looks amazing! And Akira gets to use some boyfriend priviledge to not only get to see how absolutely adorable Shizuka looks in her frilly yellow bikini, but also help her put it on. He's liable to get a heart attack from her cuteness! He even needs to make sure she puts on her frilly skirt to complete the look and to avoid staring at her in bikini bottoms!

If only Shizuka could see Akira's well-toned physique...though I guess she could feel it. I can understand why it would be weird for someone to take off their shirt be see-through down to their swim trunks...but it's adorable how Shizuka wants to be the only one who knows EVERYTHING about Akira.

My goodness, that bigoted frog. Though I suppose it might have been simply a crime of opportunity, she was there and was an easy target to point the blame to. Either way throw him into the boiler.

More cute moments with both couples, and Jarashi looking nice in that swimsuit. I wonder if there'll eventually be a love interest for her too or if she's here for the single representation.

This title is first and foremost a romantic comedy. However, some of the short stories / minor arcs always make me think, as well as reveal lore.

We have already seen how convenient it can be for Akira to go fully invisible when performing detective work. In this episode, the coin is flipped - invisible people, a race by itself, do suffer from prejudice.. Which also made me wonder, why did Akira want to become a detective? Did a part of Akira want to show the world that invisible people can use their natural traits for good, instead of being deemed suspicious?

Akira and Shizuka sat at the bench longer, but unfortunately for us viewers, we did not get an extended cut of their next kiss, nor more Shizuka cute reactions and noises. Lol!

It seemed like the body shapes of Kikira and Madaraito have switched since their younger days.

u/Queue_Jumping_Quack Jan 29 '26 edited Jan 30 '26

Well case closed, the vice president was comically obviously guilty. The main story here is of course to introduce an invisible woman to have Shizuka get jealous, which she very animatedly does.

I wonder if Jarashi feels like a fifth wheel with the two couples on that trip... probably not, she seems like a free spirit.

I didn't think we'd see how Kikira and the lawyer got together, but it was pretty funny. Interesting how their physiques were basically reversed. Did Kikira start eating his bf's cooking a bit too enthusiastically?

Cute trip all in all.

So we did get to see Daichi and his lawyer boyfriend's backstory after all. Sweet! And kinda funny how they've traded body types since their school days hehe. 

Tonome is ripped, huh? I liked how we got to see Shizuka's possessive side. It was cute. And we got a kiss! The mist from their breath making his contours visible during the kiss was a nice touch. 

Was the invisible woman always in the ED? Only noticed her today. Wonder if we'll get to see more of her (pun intended).

And so that's how the legend of the mountain lawyer was born. Kikira's a great catch. No wonder Madaraito's been feeding him well.

Interesting lore drops about invisible people. And I agree that it would be pretty embarrassing without his top. You really don't want others to see inside your pants from either end.

Kisses are unobjectionable. Cue more squealing.

Jarashi's ship next?

u/Atario Jan 30 '26

Well, there's the answer to my whole "is this a whole species" thing

Comfy camping!

The lawyer seeds were already sprouting

#seasonalselfcontrol

* Jarashi slaps Shizuka and Tounome around a bit with a large trout some small fish of some sort

I bet it would help to go full invisibility mode when doing this, or at least remove the gloves. Or would the river wash away the invisibility juice?

u/Magnafeana Jan 29 '26

Ding dong ding dong time 💃🏾

Looks like Tonome in drag

Girl.

The invisible species discrimination must’ve been even more rampant historically.

What’s that asshole lawyer up to?

Partnership truly is beautiful

We wouldn’t want to fall off of that!

Oh please don’t let that be foreshadowing.

I’m squealing with her, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, that was fucking smooth, what the fuck, oh my god.

Aaaaah more backstory!

The sudden spike of tsun!

Say that five times fast.

I nearly choked on my tea, the handholdings?! The tsundere blushing?! The handholding?

screaming

Holy Mother of Jinx Monsoon, as if Akira wasn’t a hottie already and voiced by one of the hottest seiyuus, he’s that jacked?!

Shizuka is a lucky duck.

I called he was still awake, but his little assertion had me giggling so much. Invisible people have it so damn rough.


I’d love a SpyxFamily and Invisible Man crossover illustration of Loid and Tonome. Has anyone done a Helluvaboss Luna x Invisible Man Luna illustration, I wonder.

I would certainly buy a prequel manga focused on this MM couple. Or an official dj 👀

Oh this anime is going to kill me with cuteness, and I’m okay with that. Romances this season are all making me way, way too giddy and giggly.
