| Minami is out of the picture, and both Akari and Shiori feel the emotional pain knowing that Jiro is available for the taking, since last episode's "scandalous" attempt that draws ire. As when both girls are fawning over Jiro, the dense male himself is reeling through the same relationship problems between the childhood friend and the make-believe wife. Sad to say, as much as Jiro feels like running away from reality, he just can't. And bumping into Shiori at the bookstore doesn't help him cycle through what he needs to get his feelings through to her, as much as the angel herself is kind-hearted and innocent, inviting Jiro over to hers and Minami's apartment. Jiro gawking at Shiori, only to have a temporary retreat, and then a photo together, it is sweet. But the photo together with the group's beach job, and Jiro noticing Akari's smile, it's as if that the line between friendship and romance is blurred. Akari's impromptu date during summer break with Jiro, and he's in panic attack of trying to impress his make-believe wife. It's obvious that Akari is trying to entice Jiro with the date, showing her a side that he doesn't know. From an indirect kiss to the cat cafe, and from shopping to games, they had fun together, like it or not. The ending sequence where both Akari and Shiori ran up the hills towards the shrine where they first both met at the beginning of the anime, passing all of the intended stages of married life and praying for a fulfilling romantic life...I can only think of this way as means of an amicable anime-original stopping point. Regardless, I'm very pleased with the anime being a respected adaptation of the manga. Definitely one of the best rom-coms I've ever watched this year, 2nd place behind Kaguya-sama. |

| Anime original ending, and it feels out of place... While Akari and Shiori was running to the shrine, passing those mob characters as if they will be experiencing that in the future. Overall a good show, we get Akari's fanservice and Shiori's cuteness. |
| The thing i feared last week happened, an open ending. While the main did seem focused on Akari in the picture that Shiora showed on her phone he didn't really go all out for her still a bit focused on Shiori. So even tho it's clear he has feelings for Akari it can still pretty much go both ways. I am rooting for Akari since i just find her a more fun girl compared to Shiori that being said tho i don't dislike Shiori. |
| Why oh why?? Shiori needed to appear at the end of the episode. The moment between Jirou and Akari was getting better and better until Shiori appeared as a third wheel. The ending will be much more better without Shiori. I don't dislike Shiori, but, honestly, she is too bland and boring. You can compare between the first half of the episode and the latter half with Akari. The first half was looking very boring but the second with Akari was looking more lively, more energetic than the first half. |
何それ？意味分かんない  |
| The basic rom-com love triangle was in full force in this episode. Shiori and Akari have a great cardio workout to run uphill the Phases of Relationship Hill. |
 |
| Is anyone find the song in the end of episode. Another discussion is Mei (Shiori ’s friend) loved Shiori? |
 |
| Man... Akari is so cute. She was asking god for forgiveness for loving someone else now. Shiori... back the fuck off. Please. I don't want to hate you but you're really getting on my nerves. Matter of fact, all of them are getting on my nerves. Please, just be honest about your feelings, for once. I know it's hard but please. Not gonna lie, I initially thought it would be just another romantic comedy but I didn't think I would enjoy it this much. But, it came with a fair share of frustration tbh. I'll always be cheering for Akari. Akari x Jirou. Shiori... go away!!! |
 |
| Nice finale with an open ending hope we get a second season |
| First half with Shiori was sweet and so was the date with Akari. Akari was so cute. The anime original part was kinda weird though but I guess they did it to make a good stopping point. Pretty decent adaptation of the manga. I was skeptic at first but ended up enjoying it. |
 |
| Really enjoyed this show, it actually surpassed my expectations. Akari was amazing and overall it was really fun and cute to follow this show every sunday. |
 |
| Surprisingly Akari has the taste buds of a child. Sharing different drinks or food is always sweet, but dang "It tastes bitter" again with the sussy lines Ok finale to an enjoyable show 6,5/10 Definitely needs a second season |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Fuukoi is easily one of my fave romcoms now. This was just such a fun watch. Idk how to explain it. It has a lot of the tropes we see in this genre all the time but manages to make it feel fresh. I just think the way akari and jirou’s relationship is handled is so well. Reminds me a lot of Marin and the Kisekoi MC. Just goes to show it’s not what you do, but how you do it. I loved the finale a lot. They really turned up the drama here at the end, but I feel like it’s really too little too late for shiori. I haven’t read the manga yet, gonna start next week. But like it’s clear Jiro is in love with akari and if a person is conflicted about two people he’s gonna go with the most recent one like 9x out of 10. I wish they’d have fleshed shiori out more because she’s really cute and I think she’s a great girl, but this is one of the few scenarios where I like the main girl more than the childhood friend. |

| Good romcom. I liked the first half of the show more, but it's still pretty good. It's nice, cute, wholesome, with a bit of spice. Didn't like Shiori as a character but Akari balanced it off so it's fine. Not a fan of the love triangle, but it is what it is. Some dialogues were a little cringy, but also had great heartwarming moments. Also really liked the whole aesthetic & art style of the show, very pretty vibrant colors that made it look unique when compared to other animes. Overall, nice romcom, good for the heart (though felt frustrating to watch at times), and the visuals were nice to look at. 7.5/10 |

 |
| So this is the end for a potential second season or what? So basically nothing happend again, they have both feelings for Jiro and he can't decide. 5/10 |
| “Do what feels right in your heart. You will be criticized either way.” (Eleanor Roosevelt) |
| Well I must say, I was expecting something a little more dramatic. I'll give it a 6/10. |
| Am I the only one who realised that the rainbow was wrong? I mean the outermost colour is always red instead it was purple. |
 |
| Good luck Akari and Shiori for Jiro |
 |
| Finally it ended. When I started the series I thought the practical exam concept was dumb and now... I still think it's dumb. I enjoyed the series about halfway through when I forgot about how dumb it was but whenever I think a bit hard about it, it impacts my enjoyment of the series. I can't say I'm a huge fan of Akari. I don't have anything against gyarus. I liked Marin Kitagawa but I didn't really like Akari Watanabe at least at the start of the series. I didn't start liking her until she finally ditched Tenjin in the last episode. I don't understand the hate toward Shiori. She's shy and reserved. I am shy myself (at least in real life) so I can kinda relate to her and understand her thought process. Maybe that's why I liked her and not Akari who's the more outgoing type. The main character Jiro... is inoffensive. He's not a bad guy but he's not great either. He's just a dude. And I can appreciate that. My least favorite part of this show is probably the fanservice. Again, I don't have anything against fanservice. I like watching shows that have excessive fanservice. But here most of the fanservice felt intrusive to the plot and forced. This was a decent open ending. I liked Akari racing with Shiori. I'm glad it's an open ending and the anime didn't favor one girl over the other. Love triangles work best when both competitors have an equal chance of winning and since the story isn't near its end it'd be pointless to have a winner unless it's some sort of clever foreshadowing. At least that's what I thought until I realized it's anime original so it wasn't going to have anything meaningful anyway. Still, I liked the scene. It's not as good as some other romcoms I've seen but it's definitely better than a few seasonal romcoms of the year. Wouldn't mind watching a season 2. |
| Enjoyed this a lot more than expected after week 1 and 2. Although Jiro is the only one that didnt evolved, even a little... BTW hope he ends up with Shiori, but as i said on previos episodes, i wouldnt be mad if he ends up with Akari, this anime didnt push you to choose one showing you a bad side of one of the characters, which I liked a lot. 7/10, without the open-ending would be 8/10 for sure. |
 |
| Beautiful ending. Absolutely adored this show. Akari and Jiro are such a vibe. Hoping for a 2nd season and I'll be waiting for it!! ^3^ |
 plz @ me |
| I wonder why they essentially skipped chapter 27. Or to be more precise they skipped 3/4 of chapter 27. The Akari part. I find it quite important... Maybe they gonna start a potential 2nd season with those scenes instead? They basically started with a bit of 27 and then went right on to chapter 28 & 29. Hmm, I still feel that the rest of 27 should've been in there tbh. :/ Instead they put in the running up the hill to the shrine anime original. I really think they missed on something important with that decision though imho. But okay, that's just how the cookie crumbles, I guess. Hopefully there will be a 2nd season. I'll definitely keep my eyes on it^^ Really liked the adaptation and especially the drawing style with the vibrant colours that have already been mentioned. Overall the Manga is also drawn very well. Fitting adaptation so to say. |

| I hope we get a second season and learn more about Minami's past, it would be interesting. Especially if the lady is related to Shiori. So before the kiss, Jiro was giving up on his relationship with Shiori? Rip. Shiori is so cute, y'all are just haters man. I really hope he doesn't friendzone Shiori, she deserves better. At the same time, Akari is cute too ig. I have so many mixed feelings. The rabbits looked like pigs lol. so the race basically is symbolic of who ends up with Jiro, right? Good symbolism. Jiro was a good MC compared to all the other harems that are currently out there. Yeah he was indecisive, but I never found it annoying like with Quessential and Couple of cuckoos. He was more aware of how the other girls felt (mainly Akari) and he would apologize when he fucked up. Plus the side characters were good additions too, like Kamo. Not so much Minami. I loved the animation and colors too. It was very pleasing to the eyes. Double rainbow all the way!! This anime was too good and was really slept on. I think it's definitely in the top 3 of the anime that came out this year. I'm gonna miss this. 10/10 for me! |
