The table scene was so cute, I hope we get a confession soon!
I needed a romance like this, it's just too heartwarming.

Good ep. Yuuri is now becoming one of my favorites now her new side of revenge is too hard for me to pass up now. I had a feeling Murao was joining for some other reason. I didn't think it would go down like that. Also nice to see more Futaba and Kou moments.

Reliving the manga is making me remember how much I love Kou, and really dislike Futaba... ;-( I just want a cute romance manga or anime without an annoying protagonist, please let it happen anime gods.

Oh well. Still a cute episode and had a fun time watching :-).

Ah man, I can't decide whether I like Kou or not. He has a holier-than-thou attitude that gets on my nerves sometimes, but other times he's just so adorkable. Hmmm.

Yuuri is just great though!

Yuuri giving off a Roka vibe with that cupcake xD
Futaba's reaction seeing Kou naked ^^

Murao likes Sensei!!! Huge support after Murao graduates!!!
Nice seeing Kou able to integrate Futaba's message into the answer!

Lying their heads beside each other and then facing each other!!! I was yearning for a continuation from the OP! Futaba touching Kou's hair and wanting to learn about him!

Glad they broke the ice with Futaba finding an awkward spot! She really has to pay attention more before she goes off into her own world for a bit xD
The girlfriend thing and holding hands. Futaba realizing something :3

The opening scene was hilarious. Futaba arriving on Kou's house and finding him half naked. Then Futaba forget her bag on Kou's house and eventually riding the wrong train.


Yuuri's other personalty is cute.

LOL, Futaba sure likes to press that freaking button a lot XD.

Yes... a half naked Kou... Futaba is clearly in Heaven by now...

The beginning part of this episode was freaking hilarious XD.

AHA! Murao is blushing at the site of Tanaka-sensei which means that she likes him!

Damn... Murao was freaking scary back when she insulted Kou :O

Awww... Yuuri :3

HOLY CRAP! Now Yuuri is freaking scary because her cupcake got stolen...

Wow... Kou is really impressive.

The interactions between Futaba and Kou are really great :3

Kou can say such hars words at times... but some of them are true I guess...

Yuuri still hasn't forgotten about her precious cupcake being stolen lol.

Poor Murao T.T but dating a teacher isn't right while your still a student.

Kou to the rescue as always!

Oh man. This series is turning out to be an fantastic and hilarious rom-com xD

Boy do i like the back and forth relationship between Kou and Yoshioka. Its soooo amazing ermygerd. Sorry i must sound weird for saying it like that but whenever I see those two either get along or not get along, it makes me smile. It feels real. The last part when they were holding hands I just felt so happy. I can't explain it easily but thats just how it was. 5/5 for this beautiful episode.

Lighthearted and tranquil, but I think this anime will teach the meaning of love. Neither Futaba nor Kou can qualify their feelings for each other to be actually love, because they don't know what it really means to be in love. Love isn't just 'liking' somebody or thinking they're attractive, and I think this is something that all of the characters will learn.

This also applies to Murao, who believes herself to be in love with Tanaka-sensei when in fact it's nothing more than a crush, or so it seems. I haven't read the manga, but judging from this episode, I felt as though she attributes her feelings to love when it isn't, and she's fooled herself into thinking that she could really be in love.

As for other aspects of the episode, it looks like it will be difficult to get everyone on the team to get along with each other. Even though only Murao is deemed 'uncooperative' by the others, in fact, all of them are uncooperative. We see this when Yuuri develops a hatred for Aya simply because he takes her cupcake away. Though it's cute and all, this references the idea that everyone is wary of each other and reluctant to overcome their differences and compromise. Even though Futaba and Kou seem perfectly in tune with each other, each still refuses to acknowledge the other at some points and due to disagreements and what happened in the past, it is still difficult for them to get along sometimes. As Kou said, "there are some things that can only be done together".

This is such an enjoyable show! The interactions between Kou and Futaba are so natural; they fight and makeup and back and forth. It's a realistic love story and not some contrived plot that needs "this trope here and that one there".

The way Kou and Futaba have been developing slowly but surely is where the real fun is. How they open up to each other and how they hold back. I think Kou knows that Futaba likes him, even if she doesn't. Vice versa too. When Kou finally admits it, it's gonna be so impactful.

Love the BGM that's going on and it's gonna be a good day when the OST comes out. I'm loving every minute of this show. This is how romance should be done. Definitely picking up the manga once the series is over.

I am still not over that OP and the KouTaba in it, so good.

Dat Murao stare. Dat Yuuri stare hahaha

Dat kiss on head, Futaba is such a likable heroine. I love how she doesn't freak out immediately.

Now that's what you call a teacher, Tanaka-sensei is definitely among my favs.

Smooth there, Kou.

Loved the episode, it was so slice of life-y.

lol here goes the usual "Do I love him?" "Do I not?" game. Come on Futaba, don't become Misaki Ayuzawa.

God damn, the tease!! How hard is it to move your head forward a little bit and kiss? that was such a perfect moment (cheesy though it is but I suppose it fulfills the "kyaaa"-inducing criteria)

Blushing Murao is really cute tho.

Yuuri showing her spiteful side after having her cupcake wrongfully taken away. Could there be more to her than meet the eyes? I absolutely hope so, shes awesome

The table scene felt nostalgic and calming.. at least up until Kou asked the question, nice touch of killing the mood! Their anger carrying onto the next day was cute. Yuuri's impression summed up the tension between the Futaba and Kou for me

I really like how this show doesn't contain a load of cliches and predictable things generally in it. Like for example when Futaba went into his house I was half expecting the whole "happens to find ecchi/hentai magazines in his room which leads to awkward confrontation etc" bullshit sort of thing which I've seen countless times before. This sort of show in general could be ruined by a stupid amount of awkward scenes and humour but it really isn't which is great. Also at first I would have liked the main man Kou to have a bit more personality but his stoic demeanour helps make their relationship all the more likeable and intruiging. Opposites attract, eh? That scene when they were laid on the tables was especially brilliant.

Anyway this shown is one of the standouts from the season I think, massively refreshing alongside a couple of disappointments like Aldnoah Zero and Glasslip.

I'm so not feeling this anime. The lead characters are kinda flat and stupid. Smth is wrong with the flow of the story, it fails to deliver romantic feels.
