| Gosh, the manga art looks trash. If there's something positive to say about this show, it's the nice production. I'm already not looking forward to the cheap drama that will follow all this. |
| This is so sweet. It burns! TheColonel76 said: I definitely look forward to the moments between them as a couple going forward, that is if the focus doesn’t completely shift to the other characters now that this happened. I would also really like the show to go in this direction, instead of introducing more characters and more drama. I haven't watched a lot of romance anime, so I don't know if this is an unreasonable ask... |
| This show is absolutely beautiful. My heart man ๐ญ Upping my score to 9/10 |
 |
| So much progress and we are only half way through the anime. Can't wait to see what will happen next, I smell some drama coming soon. |
| Always gives me a good vibe when the show moves the progression along with time to spare Hopefully they tie things up with Oushi as well, man ain't bad. I mean I've done worse when emotions go rampant... |
| I'm not a lolicon, you're just projecting your tendency to lewd 2D characters. 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. My MAL Interview |
| I love how supportive they are about Yuki and Itsuomi-kun, and also the fact that Yuki doesn't have any inferiority complex about her hearing problem. A female lead ain't lying about her feelings and a male lead getting straight to the facts. |
| Shojo is so much better than shounen romcom for beta males |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |

| @perseii Definitely not an unreasonable ask, it’s just something I think is a possibility lol, I do like the other characters in this show but I would definitely prefer the focus not shift. |
| ......NEW, UNCHARTED WORLDS??!!! Since half of Yuki's waking hours are spent with her fantasizing about Itsuomi and swooning over every detail of his mannerisms and body down to the way he breathes, boy I can't imagine her mind NOT overloading and shutting down when they get it on. |

Does anyone know what the sign Itsoumi was doing when he says "Yuki, I want you to..." and Yuki looked surprised and was thinking "Does he realize what he is saying with that sign?"
What does that both palms face up with circular motions mean?

| @GargletheRat "ใไปใๅใ" (in this context it means: to go out/go out together/to become a couple) Itsuomi used the signs of "Yuki/้ช/snow" "ore/ไฟบ//I" and "otsukiai/ใไปใๅใ/go out together-relationship") took me a bit to find a video for it but here it is (this one also has the sign of "ใ้กใ/please" at the end) |

| This episode melted my heart. I didn't expect a confession so early, but I am quite happy. The unusual way it was executed using sign language was beautiful. Rin and Kyouya totally represent me upon finding out that Yuki and Itsuomi are dating. Although Itsuomi doesn't show it on his face, he seems happy about the confession. Now, I am eager to see Yuki get her passport and travel abroad with Itsuomi. |
 |
| Lovely episode, Itsuomi sure moves fast. Strange that Yuki's childhood friend didn't have her number. We'll see how he react towards their relationship. |

As nice as it is to see them happy about their official coupledom, I am feeling bereft that the only plot that has been set up going forward is melodrama with the childhood friend, whom I, and I can't stress this enough, do not give a shit about.
| This is kind of my feeling at this stage. I'm happy to have a confession this early in rather than dragging it out for perpetuity, but I'm really not looking forward to the inevitable melodrama with the childhood friend. Hopefully this series is good enough to find other ways to develop the central relationship, but I'll need to see it to believe it given how many times similar anime have burned me in the past. |
| A romance anime where the couple actually starts dating before the last episode?! Now this is a bigger plus than the flag of Switzerland. This show is such a heart-throbbing experience! It's easy to symphatize with Yuki's feelings. Oushi getting Yuki's contact information second-hand through her mom is kind of creepy though. I also get the feeling she doesn't quite know her daughter. Didn't even bother to learn a little sign language for her sake either... |
   |
| Huh I certainly didn't expect Yuki and Itsuomi to already start dating this episode. I'm a huge slow-burn fan so the two getting together didn't really make me feel anything, but the entire episode was pretty cute and I'm certainly interested in seeing how their dynamic will be going forward now that they're dating. The chibi forms of the characters are so adorable haha. I'm just glad Oushi didn't randomly show up in front of the two this episode, that would've made me hate this anime. It's a bit weird that he doesn't even have Yuki's phone number, but I stand by my stance that I think he's over-hated and I wish him happiness. I'm not really sure what to expect from this show going forward other than fluff and potential drama with Oushi/Emma and some side characters romance, but as long as there's not much love triangle drama I think this show will continue to be a top contender for my favorite anime of the season. |

@perseii what? There is no new characters.
Well actually there some other characters too but they didn't really appear that much.
The one that the anime already introduced is the only characters that will involved in the drama.
(Shin,kyoya,Rin,Emma,oushi)
There is Izumi and oushi friends but im sure they're not going to have that much screen time.
Oh,there isn't that much drama going on.
But oushi tho...(sigh)๐๐
Anyways,A sign of affection has more wholesomeness and sweetness than the drama.
I know cause I read the manga.
This is a lighthearted romance.
The drama is not that heavy or will make you feel really frustrated.
It's just nice.
The story mostly focus on itsuomi and Yuki relationship.
The story main focus is the romance between itsuomi and Yuki.
Understand?

| @kisaragi_eki Thanks for the heads-up. By the way you don't need to convince me, I like what they're doing here LOL. |

@GargletheRat "ใไปใๅใ" (in this context it means: to go out/go out together/to become a couple)
Itsuomi used the signs of "Yuki/้ช/snow" "ore/ไฟบ//I" and "otsukiai/ใไปใๅใ/go out together-relationship")

| @NemuriNezumi Thanks for the explanation. Also, it's really cool that he signs "snow" when talking about Yuki, because that's what her name means (I'm assuming, because his hand motion looked like snowflakes floating down). I never thought you could call someone's name that way, and it's only possible through signing (and maybe emojis). |
| When Itsuomi put down the whiteboard... He's so cute about Yuki. |
 |
| I swear I can't get the appeal of this romance. I was waiting for Itsuomi's reason for liking Yuki and it ended up being your standard "you're so pure/transparent" shoujo reason. Well... at least production values were stellar this episode. |
| LMAO I love the "Bro's down mad" comment Oushi! This was a pretty interesting ep, and refreshing to see this modern shoujo so I'm looking forward to the rest of it! |
| desu desu binches |
| Wow so many things happened this episode, but it was adorable. Hoping that Itsuomi will not hurt Yuki though. People were surprised that Oushi never got her number til now but I feel like he’d rather die than directly ask her for her phone number. If he did, it would be in a very aggressive way. Looking forward to seeing the progression between Kyouya and Rin; they looked like protective parents this ep haha. Poor Shin, hope he finds happiness with someone. Probably with Emma tho |
 |
| This episode has blown me away with all the emotions. I just love how cozy and warm the confession was, it melted my heart. |

| @GakutoDeathGlare Why do you think the manga art/art style looks trash? Is there something wrong with your eyes? Does this looks like trash to you? ๐คจ๐ฆ       |

| Actually this episode was so cute, wholesome, warm, cozy and perfect I don't want to say much. Just that I'm really pleasantly surprised with this anime and its characters. That's all. I'm so happy Itsu and Yuki are a couple now and I can't wait for more sweet moments with them <3 Also I just love how Kyoya and Rin are the best of friends for them and I'm really shipping them too! :3 |

| @SouthRzVa ditto, it's lacking a believable (or at least genuine) love story |
DRINK SOME WATER! FOOL!!! |
| @SouthRzVa it ended up being your standard "you're so pure/transparent" shoujo reason. But itsuomi said "but,now" before that itsuomi said what he thinks of Yuki. that's different. Itsuomi is really in love with Yuki. What more do you want? ๐     |

| Even anime studio knows what to do in the week of Valentine's Day, lol. I'm also watching another anime named "30-sai made Doutei dato Mahoutsukai ni Nareru Rashii" which is a BL show. Both studios serve the audience with candy. The recent episodes of both shows made me so satisfied. Side note, Yuki is just so cute! I don't find myself liking the heroines quite often, but Yuki is just so adorable that you can totally understand why Itsuomi would like to cherish her and made his move so soon. There're chances that this show can become one of my favorites. |
