Well, this show does take the idea of love seriously. I mean, even Yano knows it now.

Still early in the season but I see the chemistry. I think they intentionally made Kiyoko glowing this episode which I thought was semi-comical. Some awkward moments aside, Yano is still being like his usual self and a good friend.

Oh my gosh, not just a confession episode, but one of the best confessions I’ve ever seen. It’s not over dramatic or dragged out, not a lot of crazy build up, just Yano finally putting a name to the feelings he’s been experiencing this entire time and letting Kiyoko know he feels just as strongly about her as she does him 🥹🥹Kiyoko and Yano we are all rooting for you! Kicking my feet in the air this was so cute

I love how this entire episode is just everyone peeping out how everyone feels. Kiyoko’s friends clocking she’s in love with Yano. Yano clocking that Hashiba is in love with Kiyoko and Hashiba realizing the same for Yano. It’s like the worst kept secrets lol. “It’s for my sister” yea bro you ain’t fooling nobody. Hashiba reading shoujo is so cute and makes him even more relatable. Again, I feel for him because dude is a sweetheart and in any other story I’d root for him! He’s really the MVP of the episode too because without him putting Yano on shoujo manga, yano never would’ve put a title on his feelings for Kiyoko lol.

I did NOT expect that first Yano confession to just be so ordinary and in the middle of class and I really appreciate that because it’s such a deviation from usual shoujo tropes! Kiyoko.exe has stop working! Not her totally freezing up afterwards lmao

Our ending confession was so sweet, Yano didn’t stutter or hesitate at all, just straight up telling Kiyoko how he feels about her and leaving zero room for misunderstanding. You can see the weight off her shoulders as she’s finally got the boy of her dreams who she’s been chasing for so long. Now, how do they navigate their new relationship since this is all new to them? 6 episodes in we’re dating. can’t ask for a better start to a shoujo romance.

I was not expecting Yano to be such a straight shooter, but hey good for him and our class president. I guess the anime now takes a new dynamics with the two of them actually dating, while also the whole class knows, lol.

Okay, wow! I was not expecting Yano-kun to be so straight forward like that but I absolutely welcome it, I want to see how the next step of interactions will be like ~

I’m just taken aback a little here, lol. Poor Hashiba-kun though, always sad to be on the third end of such dynamics. And nice to see more of Izumi-san too.

Ahah, Yoshida acting like Izumi was really fun to watch !

What a surprise to see how Yano completely change his behavior and being fully transparent about his love for Yoshida once he realise it !

I'm so glad to see that they confess to each other, and....we are just at the middle of the season !

We will be able to see some sweet moments between them, and it's not often that the main characters get together in an anime, so I can't wait to see their relationship growing !

Best romance anime of the season for me, without doubt !

Even the side character have depth (Hashida) or are immediately loveable (Mei, Izumi) so it's nice to see a show glowing not only for the main character, but also thanks to the supportive / side characters who add a lot.

Bro got stunlocked at Yano's kun extremely blunt and straightforward confession of love:



I have no idea what just happened here, Shoujou Manga is the source of all evil, because holy shit, what a complete 180º turn of events Yano did with this power move.

With this alone, most generic and trashy romcom's MCs are in shambles now.

A main character who doesn't waste any time. He becomes aware of his feelings, confesses his love directly, and doesn't even hide his attraction from his friends. The kind of main character I appreciate.

Well, I mean there are 1 or 2 Rom Coms with just as fast or faster progress but they are so freaking rare. Just as I was considering dropping it a couple weeks ago. OK, this is hella cute & they are a great couple. I hope they take a hint from Shikamori Is Not just A Cutie though, and keep on the reduced accident plot. THat was what was starting to bore me.

Like I felt like I was gonna throw up because of excitement! But maybe that’s tmi…. lol. Idk maybe I need a break from this one to recuperate, I don’t know if I can handle all the cuteness 😅😅

Can't believe Yoshida actually went ahead and channeled her inner Izumi for a morning LOL

Our dude read a single shoujo manga and became a smooth operator overnight. And while I'm happy for Yano and Yoshida, it's crazy how that happened now instead of towards the later half (which isn't a complaint btw, it's actually pretty refreshing)

i loved this episode, but i'm wondering how things will progress now. why do i have the inkling they will go back to their usual thing cause none of them know how to act as a couple? i do hope i'm wrong and that they will awkwardly move forward with their relationship :) that would be much more fun.

This is my favorite romance episode of recent times, it was genuinely so funny, Yano full on hitting on Yoshida in front of everyone, the way he was acting and blushing like the girl in the shoujo manga and Yoshida acting like Izumi was funny too, and also her meltdown, it all came out of nowhere and ended up being great comedy. Hashiba not believing his eyes also sent me, so many funny scenes in this episode. Then after an already good episode the confession was just so nice too, no misunderstandings or anything like that, it was just pure. This is an episode I will individually rewatch for sure.

For me this anime earned being held to a higher standard and I expect another great 6 episodes going forward.

@Sheol01 I was considering dropping it after 3-4 episodes for the same reason, when the butt of every joke is Yano being clumsy it stops being funny very fast, the slow start made this great episode stand out even more

I thought this was an interesting take on the HS romcom. However, I can only take the same gag so many times. After reading a girl’s manga he now understands like/love? I know he’s unbelievably naive but come on. I gave it 6 but I’m no longer laughing so I’m out.

YES, this episode was the best of the show so far! A classic romance confession straight forward, No love triangle no really complex drama or backstory. Was really fulfilling to watch. The episode as a whole was A lot, the straight forwardness of the characters really threw me off, expecting a miss-understanding or that classic anime trope. NOPE, just straight up people getting their feelings out there. Was a very satisfying 9/10 episode. LOVED the reactions of the classmates when Yano was laying it on thick. Wish more anime would do that I love reactions of other characters.

No, if I remember correctly yano has always had these feelings for yoshida. but he didn’t really worry about things like love before because he didn’t want people to be in danger because of him. now he isn’t worried about that because he finally put a title to his feelings for her although I do think it should have been another way I think it’s sorta cute.

Perfect episode. 5/5. Firstly, Hashiba getting caught buying the shoujo manga and trying to explain himself to both Tsuyoshi and Haruto was absolutely hilarious. Secondly, Kiyoko imitating Izumi was the most hilariously adorable thing ever.

Thirdly, Tsuyoshi suddenly petting Kiyoko in the middle of the classroom was also too cute. And lastly, the way Tsuyoshi boldly confessed to Kiyoko in front of the entire class was both hilarious and gutsy, especially with how everyone reacted.

I can’t believe we actually got a confession, not just from one of the main characters, but from both of them to each other, when we’re only halfway through the anime. That’s such a rare occurrence. I can’t wait to see what kinds of dates they’ll go on.

It’s as seinen as skip to loafer and yakuza fiancé are. Only published in a seinen mag for wider appeal as many shojosei stories are.

Incredibly sweet and funny episode. I laughed out loud in a few places, especially when Yano was full-on hitting on Kiyoko until her brain stopped functioning. Yano's brain was already broken by shoujo manga, obviously.

I also think this is likely, but I'd be down for this. This episode (and the last one) was such an insane ramp-up in romance that there has to be some catch to this. I'm not sure at all how these two goofs will navigate the situation, and I'm really looking forward to what the story comes up with.

I'm so glad I gave this series a try! This certainly climbs up to one of the most memorable confessions in anime this year. My Awkward Senpai is just not hitting it for me, Chitose kun is starting to look like a Mary Sue of harem anime, and I feel like I've already watched My Friends Little Sister has it in for me. This show has me excited to look forward to it's next episodes. Hey, may we all learn to be as innocent as Yano kun and be honest with our heart.

I was cringing so hard when Kiyoko tried to copy Izumi because it was so silly but thanks to that, Yano finally realized he actually likes Kiyoko romantically!

Poor Hashiba lol. That must’ve shocked him for sure. I know it won’t make things awkward between them, but I’m pretty sure there’s still that tiny sting of heartbreak somewhere in him, lmao.

Anyway!!! They’re officially dating now, right?? :3

I was so not expecting that I fear a bait... What has this genre done to me...

I feel like for all of this to be real and grounded is like the 3rd most plausible option haha. I still see that she got bonked hard and is dreaming or they both deny it happened the next day as more plausible.

I'll live in fear until next episode I guess.
