Anyways so shizuku told haru she loves him, but he loves her in a different way. I wonder what that is supposed to mean. And just when shizuku decides to start over with haru...


Indeed, I got really confused too. I dont get if he loves her a "lover" or " best friend".

Shizuku´s dad is EPIC XD

oh man, again? why the main protagonist always has a brother which he doesnt get along with? oh wait Kaichou maid sama manga vibes

Awesome episode, easily the best Shoujo of the season so far. It really is staying faithful to the manga, and the pacing is great. Awesome to see Haru throw him with one arm animated, lol dude learned his lesson quick, was already running when he saw him XD

A twin! It keeps getting better! I was thinking that they would speed the romance in this but I'm glad that they came up with this "I don't love you that way" thing. It is certainly refreshing.

Well, I have a younger brother and we at best tolerated each other for years and years. Then, we both (separately) went to a mutual friend's wedding, there were some girls, a LOT of alcohol, a car, the cops...

Anyway, we've gotten along fairly well since then.

wonder exactly what haru means when he said he loved her differently. maybe some past drama or something.. but she smiled and he blushed.. maybe a past girlfriend or something like that and when shizuku smiled he got reminded of her..? .. gah, but he kissed her in the first episode and told her he wanted to be with her.. why would he even do that if his love wasn't the love love kind.. maybe he is just an idiot after all or something.. so confusing..

Great episode, love the reaction from the Dad and the romance. i wonder what part of the manga will the anime end at or will it have a different ending since it is following the manga exactly.


Brains Base. Expect multiple 13 episodes seasons just like Natsume. But I doubt I can hold myself for until another season. I am starting on the Manga as soon as this season comes to an end.

This show is pretty good. All this stuff about different type of love just reminds me of friendzone love, but that is probably not right, since Haru kissed her and all...but he said that his heart wasn't beating fast like in the mangas...I don't know, guess I will wait to see xD

Probably the best anime of the season already! Well all three shoujo shows this season are pretty good. So I would say it's indeed a compliment. :)

Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun and Sukitte Ii na yo are my 2 favorite shows of the season. Every episode gets better and better. Character development, story and humor are what I look for in a shojo anime and this show definitely delivers.

Last season was sort of a let down for me. Accel World's second half wasn't as strong as the first and Sword Art Online started out really slow with all the side stories. The only show that I was excited for was the second season of Yuru Yuri, which unfortunately, has ended.

I'm glad that this season's shows are much better.

It was meant to be a compliment, but i didn't want to say best show of the season since its a bit early, the other two Shoujo are pretty good but i can say pretty safely that Tonari is way better and unless it bombs it will remain better, thus my reasoning for phrasing it as i did.

You really don't let things go do you? even on other forums...sigh but you are right, that said its not like your statement is even special its obvious, it would be pretty freaken bad if a Shoujo had worse romance than a show with romance tendencies, say whatever you will about SAO but the fact remains that my categorization is correct, SAO is no Shoujo, whatever it tries to be it isn't romance first like Tonari, thus this series is suppose to have better romance

A great episode although not as good as the first two. But still loved it. Shizuku's confession, the supermarket scene, "Granny's clothes"(LOL), Haru tossing his friend using just his one arm, Haru punching Yamaken whenever he touched Shizuku, everything;just loved everything about this episode.
The Best Part's-

Just be glad SAO is doing a second cour, with any luck it will attract most of the obvious trolls, sockpuppets and flamemeisters and allow us to boost the signal to noise ratio on the other forums.

I'm enjoying all of the shoujo shows this season although I can't make up my mind whether I prefer this or Sukitte more (they are pretty clearly the top two out of the bunch). We'll see how it goes when the couples reach the (inevitable) roadblocks and bumpy patches, but both shows come from pretty strong mangas.
Please don't feed the trolls!

Ah okay, let's see how things go then. At least I really like the female protagonist, she isn't the timid type who always cries and clings into her boy friend, try to sympathize him with her pathetic look. -->tired of that already.

Anyway, great episode, I like this more than 2previous one cause it gave me the reasons why Shizuku found something attractively in Haru.

This was another excellent episode. The very quick pace in which developments have occurred is extremely refreshing.

Haru and Shizuku's relationship continues to be highly engaging and compelling, due, in large part, to their contrasting personalities and terrific chemistry. Though she surprisingly withdrew her own confession following the end to the last episode, it's great that she confessed again in the latter half of the episode. I really liked that her slight worries were dealt with in a natural fashion, rather than these plethora of developments being unnecessarily stretched over several episodes, which would likely become quite tiring. My favorite sequence came in the moment her temporary misunderstanding and doubt of Haru's affections was, following her second confession, cleared up by him suggesting that his love isn't exactly the same as hers. I also loved her response, as typically, one might expect her to hastily feel temporarily angered. Instead, she understood the full depth of his words, allowing herself the patience to wait for Haru to truly fall in love with her.

The consistently enjoyable interactions among the cast remains one of the best elements of the show. Shizuku's reaction to a shirtless Haru was hilarious, as was her father's reaction to their appearance at the house. Sasayan and Natsume would clearly make a great couple, and I'm hoping that's the direction the story will eventually take their characters. Unfortunately, I can already see Yamaken becoming an interfering and irritating rival. The appearance of what appears to be Haru's brother seems quite foreboding; it will be interesting to see what conflicts will arise from this unexpected situation.

The production values were, for the most part, thoroughly great throughout. The artistic composition is fantastic, as the vibrantly colorful aesthetic heavily assists in creating what is easily one of the most visually appealing shows of the season. The direction is solid in it's confident handling of the humor, romance, and few moments of dramatic tension. The quality of the animation, however, is one of my only criticisms, as it slightly, yet noticeably declined.

All in all, Tonari continues to thoroughly excel in it's execution. This is easily one of the best shows of the season.

It's not as good, but it's ok. It has some sweet romance moments, good artworks, but the developments weren't solid, they progressed rather fast compare to Tonari, give it the first episode to find whether you like it or not.

Shizuku's one of the best female leads i've seen in a shoujo anime, she's just too adorable and not annoying! srsly, she's perfect.
