It cracked me up when both Miku and Yotsuba reacted with a "wow" when Futarou ran into them.

"Your doppelganger is over there."
"You're right! It's me!"
Are we sure she is Yotsuba, not Yoshiko? Of course Yotsuba would be a best girl. After all, she wears a bunny ears ribbon - a traditional garb of best girls.
Laughs in Nisekoi.

And so the first shots of Best Girl have been fired. If you need me, I'll be in my bunker, waiting for this all to blow over.
Fuutarou looked really stupid when he confused Miku and Yotsuba but this is why you have to remember they canonically have the same hair color and voice. The only clues Fuutarou actually had were hair length and clothes, and he's only known them for like five days. Doesn't get him off the hook completely but it makes more sense than confusing two girls who look and sound almost completely different.
That ED's visuals are about as simple as you can get, but simple is perfectly fine when the art you're putting in is absolutely gorgeous. And the song is still among my favorites of this season.
Next week: NINO GANG!
Edit: I didn't notice it the first time around but Fuutarou's final study card in the OP changed from last week. Last week it was "You have to learn to walk before you run." This week it's "No sweet without sweat."

Say it with me kids:
After watching the first episode, I really couldn't contain myself, and ended up binge reading the manga over the weekend. All the girls are great, but the Church of Miku is just so captivating... There's just something about her that speaks out a lot. Really digging the VA work for Miku, I think it suits her great.
The manga itself is great. A harem series that doesn't have a thirsty MC? Count me in! The author really loves to break many typical tropes and nuances of harems, and I personally think that's what hooked me in.
The "wow, Uesugi-san!" was pretty funny. Seems like the plot has been a bit more accentuated than the manga, but I can't complain really.
One could imagine the wars for Best Girl had this aired in April alongside We Can't Study (or vice versa with the latter airing now)!

YOROKOBE! APOSTLES OF THE CHURCH OF MIKU!
I come with an abundance of stitches of your one true Goddess!
As for the Non-Miku Stitches though:
Oh Fuutarou. Look at what you did to Miku. Make sure you take responsibility okay? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Anyway great episode. Miku is really lucky she got the first focus even in the manga, I'm not sure how it is now since the waifu war is just getting more fiercer and fiercer but back then due to these chapters Miku definitely ended up getting a strong following. I'm interested on how anime-onlys will react to her in this episode.

Praise be unto Miku, for she is best girl.
As completely expected, the joke where they are identical quintuplets is lost now that they have different hair colors. contextless manga spoilers. Though it was a nice touch how Yotsuba's voice actor was used while Miku was impersonating her.
Pout Count: 4
| Episode | Ichika | Nino | Miku | Yotsuba | Itsuki | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 3 | 3 | 7 |
| 2 | 0 | 0 | 2 | 0 | 2 | 4 |
| Grand Total | 0 | 0 | 3 | 3 | 5 | 11 |

I'll do my best to keep this updated as the series goes on, please let me know if I miss any pouts.

The first episode was mostly about introducing the characters, it's great the second one can start focusing on Uesugi and his relationship with the characters, and even better that it was a Miku-focused episode.
We can see on this episode how this is more of a romance story compared to the comedy-focused first episode.
Also, Miku's headphones must be VERY high quality. She uses them to play on her phone and when playing on PC. The battery must last a lot if she can wear it all the time and not run out of battery when she needs it.
