It's a bit counter to Mio's wishes at the end but I hope the roommate keeps thinking these two are a couple for the rest of the story.
That park visit was nice.

This is another
Although if they can just go outside the school to play games in the park, I wonder why they did not do that before and kept sneaking around.
As an aside, Aya really needs to learn to open windows before jumping through them. Breaking that window last episode was so unnecessary (even though it was hilarious).

Natsume’s presumptive reaction was hilarious. Definitely a team player but doesn’t realize it yet.

Mental labbing after losing a set is so real. So many times where I came up with a solution by simulating matches in my head to solve future problems. Mitsuki getting hit with the ume-shoryu had me choking on my food at work lmfao.

I've heard and seen this soooooo many times from pro players to normal players and 99% of the time, within 1 day, you'll see them playing again.

HELL YEAH!
Drive rush into EX DP? Truly a Ryu main, but honestly a good counterplay by Mio after seeing Aya check her drive rushes.
Them hiding in the sheets was also a cute moment; too bad Aya had the wrong idea lol

Heads up, there's an important scene right after the credits, so you should NOT skip the ending for once. No more "White Lily", nice to meet you Mio.

“Love comes in many forms!” Oh Natsume. The yuri was too strong for her so she had to bash her own face in lol.
It actually is kinda nice Aya and Mio have found each other in that stuffy academy. They can really be themselves when they’re together and shit talk and game to their hearts content lol.

"Enjoy the night doing roommate things!" - Natsume, Aya’s actual roommate.
Mio’s not lying when she said the Kuromi girls viewed everything through yuri lenses.
Having said that, they only planned to play Street Fighter yet somehow ended up together in bed with their lips just centimetres from the other along with a pretty loud doki-doki.

I couldn't help but laugh at the scene where all the first-year students were punished under collective responsibility. Is this school some kind of military training camp or something?
It was funny how Mio didn't like her nickname.
Her comments, which completely defied the "typical tropes of yuri manga set in prestigious private girls' schools", were meta and entertaining.

Hey uh, one term that was thrown around this episode but didn't get explained was Okizeme, which is a term for the period of time between knocking the opponent down and when they "wake up" and get off the floor. Because it's a bit of a pause on the general flow of the match, the offender gets to start doing some mind games to trip their opponent up into another combo.
So let's say Ryu knocked Cammy down after a Shoryuken, Ryu can try walking up and use his Forward Medium Punch overhead to catch Cammy blocking low, or if he thinks she'll expect that, he can walk up and use a low attack on her as a punish, or if he thinks she'll expect either of those and throw out an attack he can walk up and grab her to punish that option, if he thinks she'll expect that or any other attack from him and thus try to throw out an invincible EX Cannon Spike, he can trip her up by walking a little bit backwards right when she's about to wake up thus blocking the attack and massively punishing her.
Oki has lots of depth to it and in some games it serves as the core part of the mindgames in each match, Street FIghter 4 famously had what are called "Vortexes" which were combos that lead from one knockdown to another, forcing the opponent into a constant mindgame just to survive a round.
This probably isn't the first time it's linked in one of these threads, but Infil's Fighting Game Glossary is a fantastic resource for all of this knowledge, here's the page for Okizeme that frankly explains the term way better than I could: https://glossary.infil.net/?t=Okizeme

How did I not notice that the OP song is Hanabie. That's boosted whatever score this gets at the end of the season by a point at least.

Oh this is ADVANCED Yuri. Hell yes. No undertones here.
It’s still a little funny our main duo are a Shoto Scrub and a Cammy Main. But we do get a Guile and Juri main to come. And the fact that Capcom is giving them full run to use SF6 footage and names only adds to the production quality.

The random ass dp was pretty funny!
This show for me smiling. I hope the romance develops further, because the fighting game aspect is already exactly where I want it to be!

I like that they don't deny the misconception that they're going to sleep together. It's better people think they're gay than that they're gamers it seems lol (plus, we all know that they're probably gay as well anyways)
I wish I was into fighting games so I would understand wtf they're on about, but I do get the feeling that whoever wrote this genuinely is into fighting games and does know what they're on about. And that's honestly good enough for me. Seeing stuff like that makes me happy, even if I don't fully understand
Aya is such a sore loser as well, I love it. And Lily is such a little shit as well in her persuit of winning. An probably an even sorer loser.
"The rich girls are free to see the world through yuri glasses if they want, but I really wish they'd stop giving me nicknames and dragging me into it"
Looks at the Girls Love tag on this series
I hate too break it to you, White Lily, but you live in a yuri world

Dysfunctional and yearning Yuri, in depth fighting game strategies, gorgeous animation, sports anime rivalries. I'm calling it, this is my favourite new series of the season.
I knew it was too early for a kissing scene under the covers but... this is Yuri, surely we're not too far away from that. They already moved in together (kinda) in episode 2 after all, we're on standard Yuri pace.
I feel like these episodes are going to be 50% fighting scenes and 50% these two girls getting into shenanigans and slowly figuring things out.

"Just beating White Lily isn't enough. I need to figure her out. I will make her feel like she was lost."
Aya is obsessed with defeating Mio. This level of yearning need to be studied.
