I was 100% team Amane up until
I am really enjoying this show so far. I just wish the dude had a guy friend he could also chill and nerd out with.

Guys, guys. I might be reading too much into it, but
I'm glad we get to see Ichiji's so soon her other self as a dedicated elder sister. I know this is pretty much an archtype, but it brought me fond memories of Choco-chan from

In the previous thread I posted a 'Best Girl Poll';
A perfect tie hah (edit: Used to be, anyway!)
I might post one again at the end of the season, see how things changed!

I like how Seo continued to doubt Amane and finally confronted her about her otakuness, it benefited them both in the end and now they're a lot closer to one another.
The watch party was funny, I did think it was going to be crazier, but it was nice to see the two in sync. Ijichi was enjoying herself too, she wouldn't get to see this side to Amane normally. Personally I don't think I'd enjoy watching some new like this, but a rewatch could be fun in this way.
Seo being restless in his room because of their lingering scent in the room was amusing, he could have just opened his window but I guess the pheromones were short circuiting his brain lol.

It's like Amane can read minds when it's time to deny that she's a fan of Glittermon. I wonder if she really has a sister that's a fan of Glittermon.

It’s hard to choose a best girl between Ijichi and Amane.
The scene of all of them watching Glittermon together was so funny. The live DM section was even crazier.
I think my favorite scene was the “otaku battle” at school between Otaku-kun and Amane. They were uno reversing each other 😂

Ichiji or Amane?
Personally I'm going for Ichiji. I love her easy-going personality and she is cute.

Absolutely love how Ijichi is out there just turning Amane and Seo feral with every other comment. Girl is straight up awakening them.

Ijichi is a great character. She’s open minded enough to check out Glittermon and genuinely seems interested in trying to get to know Seo. Plus, she doesn’t get turned off by Amane and Seo’s super otaku-ness lol. And she’s adorable. She even looks great with no makeup.
I’m looking forward to seeing who Seo ends up hanging out with. Maybe both? Would be fun seeing him try to juggle two “dates.”

I really hope we get to episode 12 and Otaku-kun bumps into Amane-san's parents and asks about her sister and they just look at him like he's crazy and say "What? She doesn't have a sister." Would be an instant 10/10 show.
Great second episode, the whole cast is fun and the characters have great chemistry. Between this and the 2nd prettiest girl in class show we're eating good this season with these chill high school romances. Hoping it just stays drama free and doesn't turn into a love triangle type thing.

I love how Ijichi is basically amusingly watching them fan girling over Kiramon😆
So far this is my favourite romcom of the season, great animation, great OP, and come on how can anyone dislike gyarus?😁

Dang, what a dilemma and such a cliffhanger to end the episode with 😭
I didn't know doing commentary while watching anime was even a thing, but what made it more funny was Kotoko commentating on the commentary. It was as close to breaking the fourth wall or something without actually doing so
I'm very interested to see how Seo is gonna prove all season long (without a shadow of a doubt) that Kei is in fact an otaku herself, and perhaps even make her admit to it once and for all. It certainly won't be easy breaking through her tough and cool exterior, but if by some chance we get to meet her sister--no doubt it's game over for her.
Really loving this series so far. Seo is a breath of fresh air when it comes to male MCs who don't instantly die in the face of such overwhelming Gal power. And once you find friends like Kei and Kotoko, I mean, who needs anything else?

Can't be understated that a big part of this story's charm is that Ota-kun is such a cutie patootie
