Love triangles are the bane of the romance genre....If they weren't being so childish with their feelings this wouldn't have ended up this way. Especially Kou with his unnecessary tsun bs which Futaba just eats up. The guy's a dick, no idea why chicks dig this crappy "bad boy" attitude.

Kou helped Yuuri and she fell for him. I didn't see THAT one coming. I swear, I could write this stuff, this anime is so predictable and cliched. Not saying I don't enjoy it, though, lol.

He's not even a "bad boy." He's a jackass. Honestly, if I were Futaba, I would have told Kou "screw you" at least twenty times by now. xD

lol I actually think Yuuri would fit better with the loudmouth because arguing couples somehow end up together, right? XD Futaba is way cuter than Yuuri anyhow, and she's also Kou's first love, so she wins :3 they're OTP. Bye Yuuri. Go to Kominato pls.

Futaba is such a nice girl, I'm gonna bet she might try to back away and give her first real friend a chance at Kou :'( typical anime plot, but you know. Let's see X)

This episode made it painfully obvious it was written by adults trying to imitate teenage friendship, and failing miserably.

I don't understand why the one girl couldn't cross the river. The water was like less than a foot deep. They didn't even need the damn bridge. Which, by the way, was ridiculously convenient, flat, close together, straight, and sturdy to the point where it actually looked man-made. At that point it wasn't even jumping on rocks, it was literally walking across a fucking bridge.

Does she have mental problems?


IKR. she immediately angered me. she wasn't cute being afraid of a freaking rock. it made her look stupid. dumb little girl, if i was kou i would have reached my hand out and pushed her in the water just to prove that she was afraid of nothing.
--------
LOL. I FREAKING CALLED IT when yoshi sprained her leg and then she gets an automatic piggyback ride from kou. because i guess the other dude was just too busy being....busy to bother to volunteer. for all his soap boxing about women and he doesn't even ask to lend yoshi a hand...yeah expert gentleman.

but, again, he needed to be brain dead in order for the prince charming MC to move in.

and that love triangle is so freaking fast it almost felt forced.

Looks like the group became closer with each other. Kou's reaction on the celery was funny. Shuuko, on the other hand, drank the juice after hearing that Kou's brother was the one who made it was cute. Thought that their team was gonna win, but then they got lost. Kou helping Yuuri was so nice of him. Also, the piggyback ride scene when Futaba injured her feet was very cute.



It was nice seeing the team watching the sunrise together. It seems that a love triangle have occurred unexpectedly. I wonder what Futaba's going to do with Yuuri's feelings for Kou.

I was so mad when Yuuri said that she had fallen for mabuchi-kun. If she's planning on destroying my ship, I'll need to call some reinforcements.

Though maybe the love angle would make it more interesting.

Yeah I saw that coming. Just by how many shows I've watched with this kind of love triangle. Kou isn't interested with Yuuri though.

I swear on my life, literally as soon as she was on those rocks i kept repeating to myself futaba get her futaba hurry tf up and bring her back FUTABA I SWEAR- then Kou had to get her. I already knew the moment he helped her she would fall for him, I swear if Futaba is gonna hold back her feelings for Kou because of this.. I'm hoping this isn't going to be one of those love triangles, atleast with Yuuri

Kou is unnecessarily mean and moody. I don't like him. He doesn't deserve Futaba. She's great.

Of course the red haired girl makes a love triangle after the save on the river.

This episode reminded me of Kokoro Connect a bit and then even the love triangle had to happen. Oh no. Someone will be shedding tears soon and I bet on Yuuri. She is so cute and fun but why does she have to be so naive as well? Wasn't she at least suspicious that something might be going on between Kou and Futaba? And that was actually the dumbest reason to fall in love. Well, no hate, really. But good luck keeping your friendship, girls.

Man you be doing one plot convenience after another so it's obvious it will lead to this age old corrupted "love triangle" thing. I can smell drama coming.

Ya get what ya get. I thought the main hiking story thingy thing was an interesting concept. The whole Yuuri- Kou relationship felt expected as soon as they got to the rocks so its whateva. It's what makes things like this more than just a flat story, conflict, yadda yadda, broken promises, yadda yadda. Felt predictable, but after watching a few of these you just expect predictability. Enjoyable though. Yah get what ya get.

Ugh... that bedtime conversation was like telling us that they will have conflicts in the future, and one of them will leave the other... because of Kou. 

I don't really like conflicts like that because I've experienced it myself lol and I don't like love triangles either but let's see how it goes.

I still don't like Kou but that scene when he gave her his jacket was kinda cute.

This anime makes me so happy. Must protect Yuuri at all costs, except she also fell for Kou. If Fubata doesn't win, I'm gonna be pissed
This never updates so that's cool
