Tateishi's home town! I know it was silly but I find it amusing there was a short argument about where they would go for their trip.

I think it was a fun episode. Tateishi and Yui were able to go on their trip and enjoy their time together. Got to try out food there and just making some memories. The bed scene tease seemed like it was destined to happy this episode LOL. Good for them, this episode gave them time to bond outside of the office.

Deciding to visit either Hokkaido or Okinawa hmmm .... when actually the only thing both of these wild animals were after is to have sex together ... again, they can have that without spending money on a vacation ... but hey the vacation sex is nice too i guess.

Now, i like the main duo, they are funny and cute together and all that, but honestly ... i want to see much more of the second "pair" :)

Perfect level of intimacy and sweetness!

Make me wish every high school romance got a continuation like this.

I wonder why they skipped the part when Mitsuya met Tateishi's family. But still an amazing episode, 10/10 they adapted it very well.

Yui and Masugu's balance of intimacy and plain fun with each other just keeps getting more adorable, and it's hilarious that a random little kid holds forbidden knowledge that nobody else in the company knows about (well, except Somei).

Speaking of, it was nice seeing some progress between him and Hayakawa too.

I thought they're gonna have sex in the onsen, which to be fair is a very bad idea in real life, but since it's the anime I thought they're gonna do it

It’s so fire we get a show where the characters have a consistent sexual relationship but it’s not done just for fanservice. It’s just two normal healthy adults spending time with each other. I’ve been praising this series a lot because it’s so sweet and real to me. This genuinely could do down as one of the best anime ships ever lol.

It’s so cute they got to go on a vacation together and just spend time in each other’s company outdoors without having to hide from anyone at work. No overdramatic reactions or squealing, just two young people enjoying each other’s company. That sunflower garden scene was too cute and of course the bath together!!!

The way Yui motivates Masugu to make goals and try to grow as a person is so cute. Having friendly competitions like that as a couple is so healthy and productive ahhh I just love everything about them and it’s realistic as hell. You wanna be with someone who calls you up to be a better person. Not in an uncomfortable patronizing way, but just someone you want to be better for.

Beautiful episode, I hope we get to see that other couple at work develop too lol.

Good to know that this show takes place roughly 6 months from now in August 2025. Not sure what I should do with that information.

Yui and Masugu probably fought for real for the first time in this episode. But it was for a trivial reason and the two reached an agreement rather fast. That was nice to see. The two taking a bath together was also nice to see lol.

Yui's plan was almost ruined because of overtime. Having made so many plans only to not be able to go would've been super shitty. So glad the two could make the trip.

Yui being a blabbermouth is hilarious. Masugu almost got caught lol. But yeah, I'd love to see the two return to Masugu's hometime sometime later in 2026 I guess lol. Hopefully, this time he'd introduce his gf to his parents.

Man, I'm loving this anime. I never expected to like it so much. It's just so wholesome and sweet. I've been in a very horrible mood for the past few days. Safe to say that this episode cheered me up a little bit.

And yeah I agree with the above comment. It's super shitty that it's unlicensed. I've heard rumors that Sony had something to do with it but I'm not so sure about it.

What an incredible vacation episode. Even if they have little in common and it leads to arguments, this couple knows what they want. Bathing together 😏.

Their vacation was the mix between sweetness and sex, and they made the most of it. I can't wait for her to go back to Tateishi's hometown, and Yui to meet his parents.

The romance is still exceptional, and the chemistry here is hardcore, haha! The only thing I'm finding weird is that they're rushing and adapting things differently compared to the manga. In this trip before they return, she was supposed to meet Tateishi's sister and mother, because if we're aiming for a proper romance, she needs to meet the mother-in-law. I thought it was strange that his coworker at the end mentioned his parents when they cut that part out.

right, it's so good to have proper sexual intimacy without making it perverted fanservice, seinen romance is so peak when it's true to itself. Easily the best romance anime this season and possibly romance anime of the year.

Ol’ boy Masugu really got to shine as the ultimate boyfriend this episode. For all her objection pre-vacation, the moment Yui entered that onsen she also stayed on top of Masugu until they had to leave.

This was just a solid romance episode that we don’t get enough of nowadays in anime.

a perfect trip ;]
they should've had continued the trip for next episode, it was only half of episode! :(

Okinawa would be good, but that also worked fine with few jokes like when the ladies brought breakfast for them and the things that couples should do the most on a trip (tee-hee :P).
They could at least do one special thing, something unique to that Yamanashi area like Fuji-q highland, it is closer to Nagano, they also didn't show much in that Nagano which is big! I think they only were in Suwa where that lake is. They could also meet his parents ;/ Would give possible many funny and cute situations.

What I see as mistake from author is that they said they going on 2 nights 3 days.. they would need only one paid leave for that as they were going on the weekend.. that makes zero sense that they made such a fuss about summer paid leave at work if they only took a 3 day trip.. thats not vacation at all.. at least take a week!

I also liked the art of the views.

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

Another beautiful episode with our favorite couple~ ☆

Getting to see all of their trip was so great, and of course they spent lots of very passionate quality time together.

I can't state enough just how refreshing this show is, how nice it was to see them communicating again to come up with a perfect trip, together! The way they encourage each other and are each the others' biggest supporter is so sweet. Again, seriously, I love this couple so much!! Can we also talk about how good they look together, because wow, photogenic couple alert :3



That moment even made my heart skip a beat! I was really looking forward to seeing them interact without the pressure of keeping the office secret and outside of their living space, finally, and this episode totally lived up to my expectations!

It's funny to me how this show has an almost iyashikei-like feel at times, especially with all the time they spent this episode showing off the scenery and food of their trip. It was honestly really relaxing~
Not much more I can say that hasn't already been said by others, except that I can't wait for next week!
TSKR for the Keisuke/Shizuno crumbs also~~

This is the most action I've seen of an MC in a regular romance show. Even when they were cockblocked by the innkeepers, they most likely enjoyed each other multiple times. Hoping that recharged Yui so she'll be pumped up to return to work. That overtime before the vacation must have been frustrating, lucky enough that the rest of the team came to their rescue. I doubt that I'll get help that way if that happened to me.

I just love this show, easily the best couple in an anime that I've seen in a long time BECAUSE they're already a couple and aren't afraid to act and be cute, sweet, and intimate with each other. And they even argue and make up, too!

And that 2nd ship with Somei and Hayakawa! I hope we get a lot more of them, too. Love all the characters in this anime!

Best episode so far. Was 100% expecting Tateishi's relatives to show up at some point so the fact of it didn't happening surprised me a little. Well, guess that will have to wait till the happy couple returns to Tateishi's hometown... sometime in 2026.

I thought that they got a week off but their trip was 3 days and 2 nights, maybe they didn't want to spend their entire time off away from their homes? Regardless of that they had a fun time and Yui telling her female coworker about her trip almost gave them away. At this point I think some of the coworkers at least suspect that they may be going out, not including Somei whom already knows and possibly the manager that they ran into early on.

I think we need a total count at the end of this series on how many times the MC's get jiggy with each other 'cause a lot of the concern for will they get found out or not has become will these MC's have sex again at this moment? 😂

Am on Tateishi's side on this one, wanting to go to Hokkaido and have a more laid-back trip. They literally only have a couple days, so it'd be more worth it to take it easy rather than forcefully cram as much activities as they can into those couple days. Imho, if you're trying to hard to have fun, it ends up being a chore, and you end up not having fun.

Morizono seems like a smart person, and not just because she has glasses. What I hope is that she knows of Tateishi's and Mitsuya's secret relationship, but out of respect is keeping it a secret. Like no one's DUMB in this anime, anyone should have been able to read Tateishi like a book there in the last scene. Maybe it's too much to ask since it still is just an anime after all, but it remains a pet peeve to see an anime character nervous asf and sweating bullets and everyone around them to be like "yeah everything's seems normal". Whatever though, it's just a nitpick. Can't have everyone learn their secret or else one of the main aspects of this show is simply gone. Just wish that they'd be less obvious. Everyone and their neighbour's dog could figure out that SOMETHING is going on between them. This show has been pretty good and I wouldn't want to have to suspend disbelief for it for too long.

The Summer vacation, where both Yuo and Masugu can't exactly decide where to go for their very first trip, their plans haven't even much been set in stone yet. And yet, they're fighting cats and dogs over either Hokkaido or Okinawa, and all Masugu wanted was a private bath with his girlfriend...and that ultimately decided the place to go: his parents' place in Yamanashi. But before they can go, her department gets a rude awakening to suddenly work overtime...which can only mean one thing: the trip might have to be cancelled...which thank God, the on-site team managed to help out on time, even if they got off very late.

Hayakawa and Somei's routine together may be bliss, but that does not compare to the couple's trip together in Yamanashi, which went from a lovey-dovey day to a drunk night of sex as well. Sure, Yamanashi is known for its grapes, but it would've been best for Yui to try Masugu's family's vineyard, and it wlll come soon. Love the idea of encouraging each other and setting goals so they can have experiences like their vacation.

Welp, Maria having a close friendship with Yui...the secret sure almost went out to Masugu, but of course, she doesn't know that.
And with that, it's time to focus and get back to work!

wholesome when they wanted to go different places but had the same wants in the end, love the inn scenes, seeing them relaxed instead of the usual work environment in the past 3 episodes
