Well we have a real confession now (instead of that poorly translated hand moment). 7/10 for me so far.

Nice to the group all haning out together for a short while, although Ishikawa definitely had his mind in the gutter :P Nice to see some potential sparks for him with Sakura though after missing out with Hori.

Despite being an idiot, Shindou is a wonderful person. Interacting with Miyamura, and making that 'matter of fact' statement when his friend tells him he should hang out with him because he's 'gloomy and weird'. "Who do you think made him like that?"

While we already knew Hori's mother did a lot of overtime since we've only seen her once, it's clear now that she does an obscene amount of overtime (likely barely compensated for because of the wonders of Japanese work culture). So it's wonderful to know that Miyamura wouldn't hesitate to come over if she needed help. And that no pause love confession in the middle of talking to Hori before he left "whether he thought she heard of not" hammered home how true the feeling is.

No hesitation, no self-preparation, just out with it like any other sentence :3

That was a GREAT.... episode!

Hahah..!

06:30 "Gomen...ne! Yachchatta! I didn't mean to. It, like, just... happened."

MIYAMURA :
- "Your shouting is way scarier, HORI-san..."
- "SHINDO changed my whole middle school experience."
- "I'm not going anywhere."

- "Also, I'm in love with you, HORI-san."

It's nice to see that Miyamura had someone to rely on in middle school. Shindo's a cool guy.

Also that confession surprised me lmao

So basically this is the anime where you will love all the characters, They are really amusing and interesting!
The last part was a touching scene when you just get to lie to yourself.. huh poor Hori!

I'm watching the dub so am a bit behind, but I'm loving this show. I doesn't feel like any anime rom-com I've seen before.

The confession of Miyamura today was a great case in point, it's not dramatic and he doesn't even know if Hori heard him. After hearing Hori plead not to leave her alone, he just wanted to tell her that he has fallen in love with her after and that as long as she wants him to be by her side, then he's not going anywhere.

I think Hori might have a bit of trepidation about what comes next, ie dating, hence she says to herself that she'd like to keep things the way they are for just a little while longer. She knows that when she and Miyamura get together (note the when not if, she knows it's on the cards and it'll happen, she just wants the timing to be right) it will be a rollercoaster of emotions and she will fall in love hard. Some happiness is more scary than despair, as when you're very happy you have something or someone to lose. But that doesn't mean you should hold back.

Another great episode.

It's always so cute when Izumi and Kyoko are together alone like that. The same goes for that scene where Izumi took care of her! And that confession. Damn. We're progressing quite quickly here (not that I'm complaining). I wonder how she'll respond.

Props to Hori for staying composed at the confession moment. Her logic for engaging his response just to stay close will create conflict I'm guessing.

Aww. Well that was a surprising way to confess, but can't say I didn't find it cute.
I expected Hori to have some sadness in her about her mom almost never being there with them, but it was still sad to see. I'm glad Miyamura came over and probably understood what she meant in her feverish state.
I'm also opening up more to the other guys, even the president and his girlfriend. That part with Toru misunderstanding what Miyamura and the others were saying was hilarious though.

Well, Miyamura just dropped that confession like it was nothing lol. So cool and chill, totally took Hori by surprise.

Shindou a true bro that Miyamura deserves. Miyamura doesn't think twice about slapping him across the face though lol.

From experience and observing friends, this usually is just the best way. Direct, calm and don't be too bothered by it.

Got to respect Miyamura just dropping it there. Could have been earlier but that's just our privilege from 3rd person. Then again if someone else is insisting your crush likes you back and people mistake that you're dating, that's probably slow.
If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate.

Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too.

Well, now they can hang out in the student council room.. ;P Not like I like anyone in there at the moment.. President and Remi are fine, I guess, but only so.. I guess Sakura can be enjoyable character.. But depends on what they'll do next with her..
Shindou is good boy, it seems.. Towards Miyamura right then.. And towards other things - not too sure.. ;D I mean, having sex is fine, but after first double date?.. It's alright and possible, but still can be a question.. Depends, really..

Didn't expect Miyamura to actually have a middle school friend considering the lonely flashbacks from last episode. Love the honesty between Hori and Miyamura about some private topics, really makes me wish they got together already.

Interesting episode, seems Ishikawa and Miyamura made up which we sadly didn't see. Summer can come with it's pros and cons, the student council living the dream with AC though. Ishikawa and Kouno have a nice chat, with him later bringing the gang along for some AC magic. Does seem that Ishikawa and Kouno might have a thing going for them which i'd be invested in.

Really interested about Shindou and Miyamura friendship, Shindou seems like a really good guy and a pretty key character in Miyamura's middle school years. They also seem to have a close bond with one another and it brings more of Miyamura personality out. Honestly we all need a Shindou in our lives.

Seems Hori has her own sad backstory with her parents constantly not at home and being left alone. Miyamura's last words to her were... surprising to say the least. Didn't expect it, felt very sudden but i guess i'm down with it?

That misunderstanding on Tooru's part made it better and things are stirring up a bit maybe

Miyamura's flashback to his middle school and how he met Shindou is good to hear he has at least one friend from the past funny how Hori and Miyamura are often judged that they're in a relationship

Hori is catching up to those past sad memories of her mother being busy all the time but at least there's Miyamura to lean on, That confession came out of nowhere like he did to be honest.

Lmao. Ishikawa, he took misunderstandings to another level....well atleast not on the level of Gamers.

"So, you are hot". Hori said what we've been saying all along. Miyamura is indeed very hot and his confession was so impactful that Hori's fever practically disappeared lol.

Seems like we might get more couples soon in this show and I'm all for it. Romance is developing nicely between the two protagonists. And even though Hori confessed once and Miyamura confessed twice already, it seems like they still won't believe it xD

Dude, the way this anime just glides through drama like no other anime can, not letting drama get dragged out forever, it's so good. I really hate that it took me this long to find out about it.

That was stupid when she called her mother speaking to him "where you going" LOL?! 38 is not high enough to have hallucinations.. so lame.. and why did he say he loves her just like that ?
this anime is trying to be realistic but is so not...

And here we go, I saw a part of this episode a while ago in the form of a clip, and that is what made me add this to my plan to watch list in the first place.

Seems we also get to meet Miyamura's friend from middle school too, seems interesting.

The typical sick day in these romance shows, well they did it pretty well here, so there's that.

nice, Ishikawa might have a crush on Sakura, Sengoku gets weirded out for having a harem with the school council having a lot of girls LOL
Ishikawa also has a crush on Hori but was panicking while waiting for his drink thinking Hori and Miyamura are doing something together intimately, except they kept dropping things including his soda, which spilled all over Ishikawa lol. Miyamura is rarely flustered about anything and wouldn’t mind seeing Ishikawa or a dude stripping in front of him lol. Shindo is an interesting character, I love the pic he sent to Miyamura about getting a girlfriend.
Miyamura comes to the rescue to take care of Hori’s cold and she didn’t want to see him leave her room and feel alone, such a precious moment. Credit mostly due to Sota for forcing Hori to stay in bed, truly growing up so fast. Miyamura tells Hori he loves her but Hori didn't hear what he said(?) and becomes shocked. so good.
