Gakuto's secret that he neds to hide from both Hayato and Mikoto...it's all because of the parent/guardian classroom visitation request. In a dilemma, Gakuto consults with Kojiro, but he has his own business to deal with, so it's left with him and Waka alone in the Kirishima house, though the latter is just as worried about the former and thinking that he's not strong enough to help him out. Gakuto eventually lets Waka in on the visitation, though they talk it out and Gakuto in worry of Hayato who has his students and the family to take care of, he's thinking it from an adult perspective, which Waka will help him keep mum about it. It's the same with Waka, though Gakuto sure does not want to drag him into this, and Kojiro overheard the whole commotion...to give them the green light after each of their confirmation as both of their guardians, and in secret too, it's a win-win solution.

Minato is being sus as well...because he too also knows about Gakuto's secret by accident along with Uta, which the both of them feared for their lives and ran away like crazy (I've gotta give props to the animators having a FLCL-ish IRL-animation mash sequence of both Minato and Uta, it's so fluid and well animated). As much as it's a burden on Minato's part expecting the same when he was Gakuto's age, even though it was momentarily since she had to see Mikoto as well.

Minato is about to burst the secret open on Gakuto with the classroom visitation...so will he keep mum or expose the secret out?

The transition to irl environments is top tier.

Wonder how the studio made this.

I love how Grandpa Kojiro will keep Gakuto's and Waku's secret and go to the school visit for them he really does care deeply for them and the Transition from animation to Real life footage was so well done

On a day like today where we give thanks for family and loved ones, there’s really no better seasonal to watch than Yuzuki-san.

Really cute episode as always, it’s nice to get some focus on Gakuto, the youngest of the brothers. I think he’s the most like Hayato in terms of trying to take on everything by himself and keep everyone happy. Really kind boy. The classroom visitation might seem like a minor thing, but for kids of that age it is really important. Still, to have the wherewithal to not want to inconvenience his brother, and work something out with grandpa was really sweet.

I think every episode of this show has featured some sort of irl mix with animation. I loved the scene of Uta and Mikoto running down the street FLCL style lol.

Bath scene was very sweet! Love how close these brothers are. I wonder how everything will turn out next week, very excited

I'm guessing Minato tattles to Hayato but makes him keep it a secret from Gakuto.

Anyway, the scene with Uta and Minato running down the block was wild. I live for their energetic overreactions to everything.

minato and uta finding out was hilarious. I understand both sides, uta not wanting to betray their decision of not telling and minato knowing that gakuto would regret it.

and in the end it will be know and both waka and gakuto will get into trouble.

I'm pretty surprised how the episodes were mixed based on the manga stories. This story is on 7-9th chapter of the manga, but there were more stories in the anime before which I haven't read.

Minato and Uta ran so fast that they came into the real world. The episode itself is good. A lot of good moments, I wonder what Minato would do now since he found the letter.

P.S. Protect waka at all costs

Really liked the animation and story of the episode.

Gakuto is worried about Hayato and grandpa volunteering to go to the class on behalf of the mother (Waka’s mom/ his daughter) and Hayato (Gaku's brother) but I still think he wouldn’t be an ideal choice, because he is related to Waka so it’s still a parent/guardian that is coming to him but in Gakuto’s case it is a friend, friends and family don’t necessarily always have the same effect.

So I think it would be better if, not Hayato since he doesn’t want to burden him, but Minato will go instead, I think he will skip class and go to the elementary school as the guardian.

Considering how good Minato is at keeping secrets, I think in the end all 3 brothers (and grandpa) will be there. Just like when they all ended up watching that festival firework.

One of the best anime that portrays good familial relationship. Gakuto always melts my heart. So little but always wants to act like a grown up.

Yeah I loved this. I assume they just superimposed the characters and their shadows over static images, but that’s just what I think

That Minato-Uta run and sudden transition to real-life environments was some Gainax-level wackiness. Absolutely loved it.

I watched the first episode. can anyone tell me if the subs line up better. that first episode seemed to have double subs that were different each time on it. I want to watch it but those subs bothered me too much. I wanna know if it lined up better.
