taira and yamada are hilarious, especially taira who just now got some fun thoughts in this episode. the girl sitting next to tani in the library felt like she could be important but idk. suzuki was drooling was tani touched her lmao this is great.

Finalmente colocaram um personagem japonês de verdade (Taira...) Ele parece MUITO com o Ayanokoji😂😂

Sendo honesto, a maioria dos personagens são bem estereotipados para um cultura tão reservada como a do Japão

Can this show stop giving me diabetes?! I am running out of insulin jesus christ.

That face rub and cute little headpat which makes heart pound like no one's business. Tani you sly smooth fox.

I was giggling and kicking my feet at that entire scene. Suzuki melted even while going to sleep lol. Tbh understandable I would too if my partner did that to me.

This show just keeps on delivering. Peak romance

shut up babe, my favorite romance is on!! I forgot to this came out today otherwise I would've watched it to be on the first page ;-;

As much as I hate admitting it, at some point in my life, I've had the same thought lol not recently though. I do relate with the fact that Taira is bound by the same hierarchy that doesn't mean anything. But I can't stop worrying about what people think of me. Its exhausting. I do like seeing how others internal dialog about relationships, it gives characters more importance because they're relatable. And I gotta appreciate the honesty amongst friends and being comfortable with having uncomfortable questions like Taira.

Goddamn, 3rd episode in and this anime already has me in tears. This anime is so wholesome, beautiful, and extremely well written. This is the first romance that has been able to realistically encapsulate the feelings, overthinking, and emotions that occur when you first start dating someone. You slowly learn about each other and realize it's okay to not like the same things. I really appreciate Suzuki reassuring Tani all the time. Holy shit, the writing is amazing, as the kids say nowadays, absolute cinema.

Also huge shoutout to Azuma who eased Tani's worry. That is the type of people you want in your life, those who are observant and worry not only about you, but the others important to you too.

This anime is a huge breath of fresh air. Super underrated and my new comfort anime.

i've said it before and i'll say it again: this is the most realistic depiction of teenage love currently. I'm amazed on how every character feel like a REAL person of its own.

One word : ADORABLE

Suzuki's definition is on point and she's definitely on cloud 9 by the end of the episode lmao. This show is pretty much a dating or relationship 101 lmao because of how organic the dialogues and interactions between the circle especially the awkwardness between the pair. There's a lot more to explore in between the facet of their relationship and that's great. Is this the time when we finally getting an actually good romance anime in the sea of mediocrity seasonal slop? Arienai!!!

This show keeps cooking man. 3/3 and all bangers? If this keeps up this might be one of the best romance shows I’ve watched oat.

At episode 1 I was worried how they would keep the show interesting since they already started dating, but now that I see how it tackles side characters and keep the relationship between the main cast interesting makes this a really good show.

Also I really like Tani as much as Suzuki. He doesn’t talk a lot but boy he is such a chad. Now I understand why he managed to pull Suzuki, it’s cuz although he is an introvert, the amount of development and determination he has to be a better person for Suzuki is amazing. I now can’t really call it a self insert cuz he is not your typical guy unlike most of us. He is amazingly written along with Suzuki.

I appreciate Taira realizing that his mentality and outlook is problematic but still having a long way to go on improving himself. Realistic that changing your mental and getting out of a toxic headspace isn't just something that happens overnight.

Enjoying the social commentary in this episode. Lots of teenagers with the same mindset as Taira. Love the way the characters think in this anime. Could argue things get resolved too fast but that's a personal issue lol

Holy moly, I blushed when he called her cute. And I'm a guy.

And I burst out laughing when it cut to Suzuki drooling from the damage.

Also, great characterization underneath the fluff. Tani realizing that words don't necessarily convey intent 100%. Taira realizing there might be something wrong with how he sees people, and telling Tani to his face that... he can't trust what people say to his face.

It's all so shockingly effective and "endearing."

The contrast between the two leads feels natural and emotionally real, not overdone. The episode flows really well and nails those small, honest moments that make their dynamic so enjoyable to watch.

Taira just thinks too much but he's really an interesting guy, haha.
Suzuki to Tani, "Yeah, we're polar opposites and that's fine but I still want to appreciate for who you're." 🥹💖💖
Tani's also starting to think more about the feelings that he's conveying through his words and the words that are conveyed to him. Their relationship is starting to improve them both so much. This romance feels so mature even though they're high Schoolers.
I'm really loving this show so much.

whew! that wasn't just cute, kawaii, endearing, entertaining, and second-hand cringe... but surprisingly deep in many places! g'damm! :O i didn't think i'd get not just overflowing diabeeetus from this show but some actual thought-provoking dialogue and situations! :O plus... Tani-kun's got a touch of the rizz with that face cup! ;> and 'you are cute' line! :D

also, the animators are kicking butt with the non-verbal cues! after she dismounts her big-bro's motorcycle she sees her man and goes bonkers trying to fix her hair somehow and ends up with a pair of adorbs twin-tails... and she keeps them for the rest of the episode... even fiddling with one of them right before Tani-kun goes for the ... affection bomb...

sure, the hyper-stylized beyond chibi bizarre art in spots is immersion ruining! but the other parts that are a little too cartoony due to the overall character design, still show human reactions with some fun and realistic detailing. many expressions in their faces and body positions definitely communicates excellently!

i really enjoyed Tani-kun's library internal monologue about communication between people and how spoken words need body language and visual inputs added in. plus how he finds it difficult to read people's internal monologues as he is talking with or observing them.
just an ol school American otaku enjoyin the life. don't sass me kiddies, i've been otaku probably since before you were born. leave me in peace and i won't bother you either.

Taira and Azuma.
They're curious people xd
“Adorable.”
Tani didn't quite understand why Suzuki called him adorable, but then he understood.
That scene was so adorable <3!
Good chapter.

Taira (same seiyuu of Rentaro? Really?) is basically me when i had his age. Just... not as ugly and as pessimistic. Yes, i went there. Nothing much to add for the rest, it was a even worse time than ever to me to watch this episode but i had already skipped it one week ago.

You know those shoujo shots when the male lead tells the girl he loves her or something of the kind and then her face suddenly goes 4K with emotion? Suzuki does the same but opposite: her design borders on sticky figure when Tani is romantic with her (and that's why I love her) 🤣

I like how Taira realized real quick and by himself how his inner speech was mistaken and he changed his attitude on the spot. It's the kind of maturity we want to see 😤✊

honestly it’s so real how what we’re attracted to in media doesn’t always match real life… and even in real life two people can be attractive in completely different ways.

it killed me how suzuki got offended thinking tani found the boys funnier than her!!!

(づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ ちゅっ ちゅっ キス (´。✪ω✪。`)

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 ;)
