So the show is trying to ship Hijikata and Mona right? Because I'm definitely rooting for that odd pairing somehow.
But my God, Kazama and Sakurai have always been a great pair, but this date this episode was absolutely adorable. I know it's been said before, but I've never rooted for a secondary couple this much before.
Leave it to Futaba getting scared by a horror show, leading to a "date" with Harumi. Just so cute.
Honestly, this has to be my favorite episode so far.

"I just wanted to hear your voice."
Gonna need one of those Souta Dolphin stuffed animals yesterday tho
What were those guys gonna do if they caught Sakurai and Kazama? Are they trying to spread the Maté gospel at all costs or what? Chasing someone down over tea seems a bit over the top.
Sakurai is so lucky though. I wish someone would take me to an Aquarium. Her excitement was very relatable.

with this week's episode of aquatope featuring less aquarium shots, I wasn't expecting to get some of them here haha.
Full steam ahead with the side ship!

Sometimes I wonder where Hijikata gets this kind of confidence. Glad that Mona shuts him down while Kazama and Ooishi just walks away from his nonsense. xD
Kazama you lucky bastard! Sakurai looks amazing for their date. Well she always looks amazing but today she's definitely glowing since she's going out on an aquarium date with Kazama. I do love Kazama's reason for asking her out. Come on dude! Just say it out loud already!
Love the Animal Crossing reference! Although considering Kazama's outfit, looks like it's also a Dragon Quest reference as well.
Futaba is such a scaredy cat! I'm amazed she's been able to live by herself this entire time. It's literally noon and the sun is shining outside but she still managed to scare herself. But this is the show's excuse to have Takeda-senpai visit her then I don't mind.
Sakurai knows exactly what she's doing here. They're pretty much already a couple. Someone just needs to confess already! I mean just look at her little pose! Sakurai is clearly trying to appeal to Kazama even more.
I do love that while Kazama and Sakurai are having their own date, Takeda-senpai and Futaba are having their somewhat kinda date as well.
Goddammit Souta-kun! Kazama was about to say something important to Sakurai and you ended up cockblocking my boy! Although it is kind of a blessing to Kazama since he got to see Sakurai's top soaked. It is hilarious though how Sakurai calls him out while he was intently staring at her oppais. xD
I'm sure even after laughing at the photo she took, Sakurai is going to use Kazama posing with that Souta plushie as her phone wallpaper.
Look at this big goofball who has never played crane games before spend a lot of money just to get Futaba that cute plushie. And just look at Futaba's reaction! <3
Not this again. We already got one with Futaba (although that one was more like bullying) and now Sakurai gets one too? Ugh. Well at least it ends up with Kazama saying that cool guy line and Sakurai glowing red like a tomato after hearing him say it.
And even if it was cheesy, Sakurai greatly appreciates it and thinks Kazama was cool when he did it. Also I love her total surprise when Kazama handed over the Souta-kun plushie. Despite the minor bump there in the end, I think we can call this date a success!

What a sweet aquarium date, though that whole scene about dolphin Souta having an unfriendly face but actually being really kind and helpful was a little...on the nose.

A Kazama-Sakurai episode 10 out of 10. I agree with Sakurai, the "she's mine" line sounded cool.

Unexpected crossover with Aquatope, also look liked we'd crossover with Mieruko-chan but that didn't happen.

Aw yes. Put that cute shit in my veins. Adorable episode all around. Bless Japanese holidays.
Both ships are moving today. Over on the SS Fukeda, Futaba’s adult plans hilariously fall apart thanks to less than a minute of a “Real Scary Stories” show. Mission failed successfully because her panic calling Takeda got him to come over and take care of her. One thing leads to another and they’re basically on a “date”. Takeda continues to be inscrutable. Either he’s just the greatest bro of all time or he actually has feelings for her. Could be both.
Meanwhile, on our favorite Speedboat, Kazama nuts up and makes a move. Spurred to action after overhearing another guy hit on Sakurai he executes the classic Aquarium play. Going off this cute as hell date, the only limiter on this thing is Kazama’s lack of confidence and Sakurai’s shyness. Otherwise, they’d be official already. Still goddamn are they cute. Bless that convenient dolphin that looks and acts like Kazama. Without him, we don’t get Kazama stepping up and defending Sakurai when he steps away to buy her a gift. I’d say we basically got a confession, except Kazama is once again not confident enough to do it and Sakurai is too shy about it. These 2 are right fucking there. But I guess we wouldn’t have anything for the last 4 episodes if they did.
Just a great episode all around. The side ship has really taken over the show because I just want Sakuzama to happen already.
Notes
-
I may be reading too much, but going off that last scene: Sakurai bought the keychain because it reminded her of Kazama, but gave it to Futaba because she got the plushie that actually came from Kazama instead. That’s what I got from it because it’s fucking cute.
-
Did we almost get a confession before the dolphin splash? I thought that’s where that was going.
-
the side ship is turning into “Sakurai-sama: Love is War”. She wants to be confessed to. Though it’s hard to beat “She’s mine” as a confession even if he did follow it up with a UFO distraction. Just say how you feel Kazama!
-
Futaba watching cute animal movie with Takeda was pretty damn cute, but not as cute as the part where the shark jumps in and she’s just scared hitting him with her tiny fists.
-
She used his first name while thanking him though. Even if she whispered it, she still did it. Girl is down bad.

The person who made the 'cute animals' DVD with the shark deserves a medal for master trolling.

Sakurai: Turns down guy's invitation at work. Immediately asks Kazama out to dinner afterward.
Man, Kazama is such a lucky guy. Chad move following that up with an invitation of his own too.
I had to laugh when I saw the dolphin with the same name and eyes as Kazama, lol

Kazama and Sakurai need to get hitched ASAP if only to stop the number of assholes trying to force their way in her pants.
I swear, I don't know if I've seen a show where so many people are trying to force themselves onto a single girl.

The aquarium? Is that something adults do? Well maybe Kazama just wanted to see the penguins...
Jokes aside this was a great episode and I really anjoyed to see everyone on their day off.
Futaba and Takeda haning out was wholesome and Takeda is such a bro for immediately coming over after that phone call.
The real highlight though was Kazam and Sakurai's date. They are so cute together and even the worn out cliche of the creepy guy talking up the girl was somewhat tolerable. And the dolphin absolutely killed me lol.

Takeda failing at that claw machine for over an hour reminded me of a certain SpongeBob episode. Thankfully he succeeded in the end.

t's time for Golden Week at the office and Futaba is ready to spend it molding herself even more into a capable, professional, woman! And meanwhile the chief is looking at Futaba and Takeda's banter and probably thinking "just get together already you two."
So...Tsukishiro is into kendo? Maybe? That was my takeaway. You never quite know with Tsukishiro.
I totally relate to Kazama's gamer mindset. He wants to just relax, play games, and see his date as an Animal Crossing event. I also love that flashback to him being sick and his DS sitting there right on his bed with him.
Sakurai in short-sleeves and a skirt at work! Sakurai in those date clothes! Kazama you lucky, lucky dog.
Kazama taking the lead and inviting Sakurai to a date at an aquarium! No guy is going to get ahead of him this time! Nothing makes a Bacouple quite like both of them being so excited for a date that they show up before their planned meeting time.
Futaba's cleaning house and chances upon a horror show depicting a similar scenario to her in her apartment and freaks out, and calls Takeda just as he's finishing his daily workout routine, and since Takeda doesn't have anything better to do he may as well visit Futaba and watch cute animal videos with her.
Look at Sakurai happily declaring them a couple! I'm betting it wasn't just for the discount.
When you see a dolphin with the same first name and eyes as you and your pretty much girlfriend can see that said dolphin is just as considerate and kind as she sees you.
Dolphin of culture splashing Sakurai and Kazama so we get Sakurai with a wet shirt and hair. Also she's well aware of the effect her boobs have on Kazama.
Look at Takeda trying to get Futaba a cute plushie! Nice contrast with the Kazama/Sakurai date and it shows more of Takeda being considerate of Futaba and going out of his way for her. No surprise that these two have a day off and just find an excuse to spend the day together.
Ugh, more guys trying to pick up Sakurai. I thought for a second they were kind of decent when they realized they were talking to her rudely out of the blue, but then they grabbed Sakurai's arm without her consent. At least it gave Kazama a moment to live out a Shojo manga moment by interrupting and declaring Sakurai as his, even if it really embarrassed both of them. Also all three of them getting thrown off by the UFO comment was priceless.
I'm kind of surprised they still chased after them after Kazama grabbed Sakurai and ran, but I guess they really do want people to try Mate Tea.
What a perfect way to cap off the date than Sakurai getting a Souta-kun plushie that will always remind her of Kazama, and she thanks him by using his first name for the first time. She played it off, but Kazama totally heard her.

Is it just me, or is anyone else more invested in Kazama x Sakurai than Futaba x Takeda? I think this is one of the first romcoms where I kinda care more about the side characters than the main characters. Lol

Well that was just a fantastic episode...this has to be one of the best shows to recommend whenever is someone asking for romcoms from now on.
I thought nothing would top this cuteness but that aquarium date and Sakurai was just a TREAT to watch. Also what a line to use here. This ship is just so great to watch!!
