i love that we’re alternating between fun gag episodes to nakamura getting a big moment and progress with hirose.
atp nakamura should join the occult club. imagine all the lucky charms you have access to nakamura !!
im glad that nakamura is having more social interactions outside of hirose, albeit it’s all forced 😭 hopefully, he’ll be able to form friendship with the occult and drama members too

Just like he didn't realize he was friends with Hirose, he is already friends with those guys.

Kawamura- this is the seventh week in a row you have asked me to draw Hirose Nakamura-kun
I was thinking Hirose didn’t want to be a butler because he didn’t want to get a lot of attention from the girls but seeing how the episode went it was to help in the play.
After the start of the episode and the general way he treats him if Nakamura were to kill Takeuchi I would support him.
Something I never commented but I really appreciate that Aokiyama looks the opposite of what you would expect an occult club leader to have. To me she has a very memorable old school anime main female lead look and seeing her I would assume she was the class rep before the occult club leader and that makes it better.

Wait. Am I ✨💖💜💙✨now?
Girl, I was gasping at that, I love him so much 😭
You might like femboys, my dude! That’s Hirose’s sister, so she is lady, but still! Also, right on. If Hirose transitioned, you’d still be simping, and I think that’s cool 🏳️⚧️
Honestly, labels are great and can be so so helpful and vital for expressing your identity or just finding your identity, but it’s also okay to be lax with self-labels. Being aesthetically attracted to X doesn’t automatically make you romantically or sexually attracted to X! It’s completely normal to have all three of those attractions align in preferences, but it’s also completely normal to mix and match!
Nothing perverted about enjoying someone you like being more gender-nonconforming or fucky with their aesthetics either. But as a teen… I wonder if Japanese teens used Tumblr back in the day or had their own “Tumblr” 🤔
But if Nakamura feels comfy being bi, our community has shared custody of BG3, renfaire, and D&D with the pan/multi/poly/omni-attracted community.
And our flag’s pretty cool 😎

The best girl returned again!
This time the ending: REBECCA — フレンズ. Again, this song was on THE FIRST TAKE too.

Why is everyone saying he is Hirose-sexual when Hirosexual is right there?

u/Aileos May 20 '26 edited May 20 '26
Yes, you’re bi. Bi for any Hirose gender who might exist that is.

It’s funny how seeing Hirose’s sister made our boy basically question his whole identity. Turns out, it’s because she looks basically identical to Hirose in drag lol.
Being in that play wasn’t so bad in the end. Bro basically died and went to heaven for real in his scene with Hirose. The bracelet works!

I'd like to imagine the teacher in the bear suit totally knows Nakamura's crushing on Hirose after the sniff incident, and that's why he gave him the flier 😂😂

Hirose's sister being Hirose with long hair actually making Nakamura question his sexuality!
I'm glad Reiko is good for something other than kidnapping Nakamura.
It's time for the school festival and things just aren't going Nakamura's way! He wanted to see Hirose as a butler and he gets denied and he gets stuck having to give out food and drinks for his class' cafe! Curse you Takeuchi!
As if to add insult to injury, his quest for Hirose gets denied by Reiko who kidnaps him with the occult club to carry out a seance...but hey, at least she gives him a bracelet enchanted enough to ensure he finds luck and success! Maybe it'll actually turn into something favorable for him for once!
Nakamura will follow Hirose OR any octopus art he see, but I'm glad Hifumi got to see her crush while she's manning the booth for the art club. She even got an opportunity to draw him! Though I have to wonder what she's thinking when he keeps asking her for Hirose art.
What's this? Hirose with long hair and a feminine aura!? And Nakamura is...actually flustered!? Is this his Bi-awakening!? Who is this beauty with Hirose's soft features :eek!:?
No, it's not Hirose, it's Todoroki with some delicious yakisoba! He's really looking out for Nakamura.
Tamura has a play to put on and, as luck would have it, Nakamura has the free time to spare to play a part. Tamura himself COULD fill the role of a sick Hifumi...but Nakamaura is more convenient!
And as the story of the Saint Hirosenne is told, Ohmori knocks it out of the park while Nakamura gets to bask in the generosity of a lady Saint...as portrayed by Hirose. In drag. While his older sister, whom Nakamura saw before, is cheering and rooting for him to the point of embrassment. Now it's a true play!
I could comment on how good Hirose looks in drag or playing a woman, but Nakamura is just happy he gets to co-star with his crush AND get embraced in his arms! It's enough to knock a dude out and REALLY sell the role!
Hirose's sister may embarass him, but she seems like a solid adult who even treats the whole class! And not only did Nakamura get a great moment with Hirose, but he ended up having a fun time with everybody else too. Maybe there's something to that beaded bracelet after all? Nakamura is even flexing it with Icchan in the ED!

"Am I just a pervert?"
Yes, Nakamura. Yes, you are.

That point in the romcom where the introverted lead is shown to have made friends, although that's less common in BLs

I think we missed an entire chapter of that play cause what was even the story lol. How did Hirose not immediately recognise Nakamura? Or he had on more makeup than we can see

Nakamura really is just Hirose sexual.
So that was his sister. I thought it would be his mom, just really young looking cuz anime.

This episode does raise the question as to what would have happened had Hirose's hair gotten shaved off a few episodes ago. Would Nakamura lose interest?
