Great start of this episode :D
Ahn Ahn ahn~~ kukukuukuku~~ one more!

Megumi try "hard" to be tsun tsun ;d

LOL at Eriri and Utaha reactions on word date :D 2x lol at Utaha :D
Utaha crazy writer ]:->

around 19:19 of episode I was playing "where's Wally" I mean Tomoya ::D

Is it just me or he remembered something and in the past Utaha looked like Megumi now?

Tomoya has finally shown some strong points.

anyway this episode was very good ;)

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;)

Kato is great but so is Utaha.
So conflicted~
Finally the next episode seems to be the back story between Mr. Ethical and Utaha, Hope it delivers because it was so gooood when I read the manga.

Also thoroughly disappointed with the story they came up with.
I was buying the first and mid parts of the story then it went all nonsense with Giant monsters or whatever.
(Yeah I'm overthinking this :P)

I don't get how Ethical-kun could get excited over Utaha-senpai's scenario proposal, when the first time he sees it. I'm sorry Utaha-senpai, but that scenario is so fking shet that it's not even funny, I think I might have seen an anime that similar to that I won't say the name though. But luckily after that, Ethical-kun rip apart her scenario and tries to improve it. Quote from Kato:"I thought the setting was kind of stiff", hell yeah that's what I thought too. The jealousy over Ethical-kun from both Utaha and Eriri is high.

Things have started off slowly so far, but it seems to be escalating much more now.

Kato's cute side due to Aki's date is slowly starting to show. IS THIS A SHIP GETTING READY TO SET SAIL? ;^)

AND IS AKI GOING TO HIT HOME RUN WITH UTAHA? LET'S SEE.

WHERE'S ERIRI'S PORTION OF THE LOVE THOUGH?

11/10 episode, pretty good.

Utaha-senpai's reaction to the date in the background was hahahaha.
Tomoya's and Megumi's to and fro conversation is still the best.. always made me smile
The date was really nice, that is an amazing amout of people. Megumi's so cute at the end.
Eriri is too quick to explode.. she's fighting a losing battle right now LOL.

I like how Kato is kind, cute, not shy, and not obnoxious. Perfect formula for best girl.

Also when the MC was charging through the crowd, that shit was pretty funny. Also good on him from rejecting that shit script.

Starting to like this more and more :D

Well, I can respect his choice to not want to jump the gun on approving the plot. I also respect Utaha-chan a little more now that she made it clear she respects his decisions as the director.

It's too bad he's falling into the typical harem MC trope of being completely oblivious to those around him.

Alright, we're five episodes in and I'm quite into this one. Katou is a qt, and actually a rather distinct character in contrast to the genre tropes this show utilizes.

My interest in this series is waning pretty damn quick. The characters are becoming more and more tropey. The humor is becoming flatter and staler. And honestly while I want to give it the benefit of the doubt it's for deliberate comedic effect. It's worldview is becoming increasingly twisted. I was not charmed or amused by all the "damn normals" talk in this episode. The mall date was dull and kind of cringey. And my god. I don't often apply real life values to anime. But I REALLY really thought there was going to be consequences for the main characters little meltdown last episode. That level of possessiveness is not funny or quirky and it's damn sure not endearing. And I was absolutely baffled his tirade didn't end with her like walking away and being disappointed in him. At the very least.

It's been okay so far.. but that music at 17:25, the second time I heard it in this series.. really reminds me of Bill Withers "Lovely Day" from Jan 1977. Seems like they used it as the motive behind this BGM segment.
I never knew mall shopping could be so traumatic. :LOL:

Another good episode. Katou is still adorable as always.

Utaha was hilarious in her yandere mode. Though she did right a nice story.

Episode 5 and the cousin hasn't appeared yet.

Poor Eriri couldn't get a single facial from Megumi. lol
Utaha nibbling the pocky was very funny. I also liked her impulse when she suddenly started writing. So over the top!
Megumi was cute, I guess. Looks like Tomoya is advancing through Megumi's route quickly. The glasses Megumi chose for him can be a nice souvenir of their date.
Utaha is waiting for Tomoya? Interesting.

P.S.: I almost forgot about this fun fact. The glasses store is called G·A·fas. Gafas means glasses in Spanish.

Utaha senpai has now overtaken Eriri in the race for best girl.

It also upsets me that she was stood up by Tomoya.

I don't particularly hate kano but I wish she'd show more personality. She reminds me of a less cute Sengoku Nadeko.

Really liked this episode. Megumi is really expressionless lol. Kasumigaoka was basically writing out her fetish lol

Kasumigaoka's story took a plot turn that I was not expecting though. I thought it would go like she'd give the story, they'd say it's good but it's very cliche... but then we got supernatural incest love story. That really took me by surprise.

Megumi being considerate of Tomoya and offering to postpone the "date" even though it was him who forced her to decline her cousin was just... she's just too good of a girl. And I really like her fashion sense. It's really cute and stylish, especially with that beret and frilly skirt. She was just too cute on that date. Especially when we realised that she was buying something for Tomoya and she put those glasses on him. Felt like they were the protagonists... except they're not supernaturally reincarnated brother sister. But if I were Tomoya, I'd fall for her head over heels completely right then and there.

Aki is feeding Utaha and Eriri getting jealous XDXD!!!

"Crowd = Human Mob" - Words of wisdom by our Tsundere Eriri!!

Wtf is with that plot written by Utaha!!?? It starts on a good note but ends really horribly and how the hell did Aki find the plot exciting?

The date was not what I expected it to be. it was basically a guide by Aki the Otaku on how to make best use of time and plan your visit to the stores.

Once again Katou steals the hearts of the viewers with that ending in the glasses store.

And, where is it that you need to go Aki!??

Pretty good episode again, especially liked the date between Megumi and Tomoya at the mall with her getting the glasses for him as a thank you at the end being pretty sweet, heroine moves right there. Also pretty dope that Utaha went full jealous yandere mode with the typing since I just expected that to be a gimmick but it was actually used for the actual story she conceptualized which was... interesting. Tomoya and the others like it, but Tomoya in particular does feel the conclusion isn't that satisfying for him and something felt off. It's good to see some slow-burn progress here for the circle. Only thing that really annoyed me was the fact that I'm sick of Eriri's tsundere acts plagued throughout the episode and show now.

They're working on the project already that's always good to see, The way Utaha eats a pocky is so amusing I like how she eats like that

Utaha is really showing what she really is quite different from what you see in each episode, The plot is now finished thanks to Utaha very talented indeed, The date finally happened Tomoya still with his otaku mindset really likes to plan things out

Megumi as cute as ever even though she's boring but still it doesn't hide the fact that she's still cute and very thoughtful in the end to buy something for Tomoya how sweet.

Ah ah ah ah~~ Utaha gobbling up those pocky sticks just melted my heart
Some creative differences on the topic of the story Utaha wrote but it seems like Tomoya manged to find out whats missing through his cute date with Kato.

Lol at him being jealous about that cousin going shopping with Katou and then suggesting to go with her instead. Felt a lot like a date, especially when she bought glasses for him to thank for coming along.

Now I don't know what dude figured but no way they were actually going with that story Utaha wrote, right? Or maybe it was just me lacking the vision of an otaku to perceive the depths of that plot.

Also tsundere-ism under limits.. please.

Never ending plan to watch list...

I'm pretty sure Utako gets a kick outa Eriri's reactions. That's why they don't get along. I'm thinking that's the main reason.
