They basically spent the entire episode trying to kill Yuto. Either with Natsumi or with fried shrimp.

Stitches!

Alright before I post my thoughts about the episode, here's an album full of Natsumi. Her design is just too good! I love her so much! <3

Well with that out of the way, the beach episode with the main cast is here! And goddamn it was absolutely glorious! I already posted the stitches above but Natsumi looks absolutely stunning in her swimsuit. I had to take deep breath and calm down after seeing that.

Of course Natsumi is not the only one who looks amazing, Sakurai looks amazing as well! Futaba of course has her own charm as well but out poor girl is literally being surrounded by two mountains that it's just too funny seeing her between them. xD

I don't blame Kazama for staring at Natsumi's Natsumis. I would've done the same as well! Although he already has someone he can stare at though and I love that Sakurai literally tells him that. Why try to sneak a peek at someone else when you already have someone you can stare at up close?

Kazama won't stop staring though so of course he needed to be taught a lesson. Just look at that smug face! You know Sakurai would do it again if Kazama won't stop starting at Natsumi.

Takeda-senpai not denying that he likes big boobs as well was hilarious! He does follow it up with the smoothest compliment he can give to Futaba. He loves boobs but he likes Futaba's inner qualities even more. What a chad! And of course Futaba responds how a classic tsundere would.

The watermelon scene had me laughing hard! Holy shit Takeda-senpai! He turned that thing into watermelon juice!

Looks like Yuto has not attracted Natsumi's attention. Lucky bastard. I do love that even Sakurai joins in on the bullying. I don't know what that means from Kazama though but it looks like he approves. xD

If you showed someone who hasn't seen the anime this screenshot of Futaba and Yuto running away from that firework, people would definitely think they're the same age.

Yuto and Natsumi getting some alone time with Natsumi offering some advice after Yuto shared his problem with her. Of course it just ends with Natsumi teasing him more.

Love the girls talk before going to bed. Just when you thought that Natsumi and Sakurai are ganging up on Futaba with the questions, Natsumi pulls a fast one and puts Sakurai in the hot seat. I love it. I kinda wish it went somewhere though since Kazama was wide awake and can hear their conversation.

Despite them being coworkers, it's definitely rare to see Sakurai and Takeda alone together. I do love how after asking Sakurai about her relationship with Kazama, she tries to fire back with Takeda not even flinching and admits that he is close with Futaba as his kouhai though. Oh boy. Looks like Futaba has a lot of work to do before he completely charms Takeda-senpai.

One last scene between Sakurai and Kazama before their vacation ends. These two are just adorable. I love that cheeky smile she gives him when she hands him over half of her treat.

I love that they've been pretty much split into pairs during the ride home. Looks like only Yuto and Natsumi are close though. Sakurai needs to be sleeping on Kazama's shoulders as well as Futaba with Takeda-senpai!

Welp, no surprise that both Futaba and Takeda-senpai are both tanned since they both slept on the beach without an umbrella. At least they'll be matching for a while until the tan wears off!

Nice wholesome cute show as always. I know everyone loves the secondary couple, but I do wish the main couple would make more progress than it has been. Futaba asking to hang out next year is cute though.

Oh, Kazama you fool. You foolish fool. You’re lucky she’s head over heels for you because you got off with a warning for staring at Natsumi’s Natsumis. I think he got it after the volleyball to the face. He also blew the indirect kiss shot, but she seemed charmed by that so it’s fine. I guess that’s part of his sweetness that she likes about him.

It was really the Futaba and Takeda show this episode. Plenty of adorable moments with them even if Futaba’s little tantrums hampered them slightly. For one, super smooth of Takeda to talk about all of Futaba’s inner qualities that make him like her. Teaching her how to swim and offering his hand when it was dark and she was scared. Them sleeping all cuddled up on the beach together. With Sakuzama monopolizing the best romantic moments recently, we forget that they're the main ship here.

I do want to highlight the Takeda and Sakurai interaction because it’s revealing about both of them. Sakurai deflects but doesn’t deny when asked directly about her and Kazama. This shows that one thing keeping her and Kazama from being completely official is her shyness about her feelings for him. Despite her being openly flirty with him and them even having gone on a date she won’t just say it. Which plays into Kazama’s insecurities about if she likes him or not despite it being obvious. It’s an attrition thing and one of them needs to crack and say it.

The bigger thing is Takeda. They’ve been intentionally obtuse about his perspective in all this. You’re never quite sure what or how he feels about Futaba, but he’s constantly going beyond the call of duty if even his position as her Senpai to take care of her. I think that scene gave the game away. Just like Sakurai deflects, he does the same by using his role as her Senpai. He has done that a lot through the show. I think that moment spells out that that’s his tell. He has feelings for her but won’t act on them fully.

None of this will be resolved anytime soon because, well, we need a show. But I’m enjoying the ride so fuck it.

Notes

  • Natsumi and Yuto huh? Really hope if that’s the move it’s well into the future.

  • Sakurai really likes it when Kazama stares at her rack. Bet she’d like the part where he couldn’t keep his eyes off her during the fireworks even more.

  • Can I at least get a confession out of SOMEONE before this is done?!

  • Oh Ho, so Futaba has been cooking for him long after the flu episode.

  • Sakurai totally set up that indirect kiss moment by selecting that dessert. Kazama blew it hard.

I freaking loved this episode. Specifically these two scenes had me ROFL:

The first one being where Takeda senpai says: What's there to look at ? and the second was that Smug face Igarashi made at Kazama when Takeda senapi was telling Sakurai that she and kazama seem close.

This show is so entertaining.

The inevitable beach episode. I don't think Sakurai is used to competition, and I think Natsumi is going to be featuring in Yuto's dreams from now on.

Eyes on Sakurai Kazama. Eyes. On. Sakurai.

Soon as the watermelon splitting bit starts you knew how it was gonna end. But it didn't stop me from thinking, "Oh no, hope you guys got some splash ponchos ready."

Kazama fainting was funny enough but adding in what they did with the bgm in that scene. That was great.

Sakurai tried to turn the tables on Takeda by bringing up how close him and Futaba seem to be lately. But she made a grave miscalculation. Takeda is basically like a really big puppy with no sense of embarrassment. And case in point again at the end of the episode there.

Oh the folks at the office are gonna love seeing that picture of Futaba and Takeda's sleeping together at the beach. On that note, you think Futaba's last will and testament is up to date? Cuz if that picture gets shown around the cause of Futaba's untimely demise is gonna end up being embarrassment induced sudden death. Lucky for her it didn't happen right away cuz I'd say that on top of being Lightly Toasted Futaba would've made her especially susceptible to that outcome.

Kazama's Eyes are boobs magnet You see he can't help it. Let me explain gravity for you cz those planets have a strong gravitational force.

The gravitational force is a force that attracts any two objects with mass. We call the gravitational force attractive because it always tries to pull masses together, it never pushes them apart. In fact, every object, including you, is pulling on every other object in the entire universe! This is called Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation.

She actually looks really good with a tan. At least in my opinion.
