This guy's priorities changed in a matter of seconds. From mixer > Psychology lecture/report to sleeping > mixer > lecture.

You gotta wonder what exactly this weird person he's talking to said in reply that he decided to put the mixer and lecture aside to offer to sleep together.

Okay his face/hair totally got me. But I wasn't liking this loving to go to mixers crap---but he did say he wouldn't go because I wasn't going so I guess I'll give him that :p He's actually in my age range too (plus he's sorta right, I am weird (as in different!) because I'd rather stay home and watch anime then go out partying lol)

I think he's the winner, but still some episodes left so unless someone else comes he's 1st place :3

Nobunaga Shimazaki? Seriously HE voiced this guy? All throughout the episode I was like, 'I know this voice, I KNOW it, but why can't I remember who it is?' and then it hit me. Ahhhh. This episode was pretty cute.

P.S Can you just imagine Haru from Free! saying this? :P

This episode started on those food trays and I was instantly like "am I in prison?". Then I saw this ginger haired freak and I was certain that I definitely was. God, what a creep. Trying to get me to go to mixers with him is one thing, but watching me sleep and then asking me to sleep by him in a secluded area of the grass? Bitch no. His ass gotta be some sort molester doing shit like this.

Also not proper dating material because he's doing a useless college course AND he never goes to his lectures/does his papers. Your ass ain't worth shit if you can't pay for my lifestyle.

Don't tell me I was the only one freaked out in the beginning. There was no sound. It's a cafeteria, put some mumbling in the background! I thought we were playing a deaf person or something. But no. Opening stated. And later, the dude started talking. But still, no other sounds.
Now I think it was like that from the first episode, I mean, the no background sounds/music part, but I didn't notice it until now.
I did not like that dude. Just leave me alone please. I don't want to go anywhere with you. I definitely don't want to sleep together anywhere.
I hope for a one decent episode before the anime ends.

Is it just me or did the character design improve? Maybe it just worked for this danshi.

I sometimes think that this show is too Japanese and I can't understand it. Like, why some of those guys are so utterly flabbergasted at the simplest of things? Why is this guy asking me if I'm weird? Why was astronomy guy amazed that I wanted to listen about stars when I clearly went with him to see them? So many questions; geez, this may be the deepest show I ever watched.

This. Even though this anime isn't about cooking/food, that meal looked pretty nice.

Even hotter than the guy.

As for the protagonist of this episode, there is one word that landed like a brick on my mind:

PLAYA---!

Astronomy boy is cute but damn. <3 I like astronomy boy's personality a little more though.;;
I mean, this guy's probably better than fedora/trilby guy who made a cameo in the part where this guy's sitting in the lecture. M'lady. :U

Also was that a ring on this guy's finger? Are Japanese ring meanings different or no?

LOL, but I agree. That awesome cafeteria meal was definitely hotter than the dude.

Pretty sad when food is more attractive than a guy...

the first ten seconds of pure silence freaked me out. i should have expected it by now but still. at least the food looked nice.

then again the guy's offer of skipping to watch me sleep is creepy.

Nobunaga Shimazaki did not disappoint!
My fave out of the guys so far being eight eps in.
Made up for describing a five year old as "hot" last ep.

Typical guys that party at my school are much more obnoxious, so I can't say he's too bad.
It's kind of weird he was watching you sleep though. It's one thing if it's your SO in your bed after dating for a while, but some girl you've never seen... and like admitting it ^^;

As said, the food looks good, it could be Tonkatsu. Now i want some Tonkatsu with that sweet, spicy, barbecue sauce that is served with it.

A huge ego and suffers from Nomophobia. Doesn't put his mobile on silent for even two seconds to talk with you properly. Who came up with these characters! None of them are appealing so far, they appeal to my fight or flight instinct though.

The hottest one. I love his character design!!!!! Caught my eye in the OP ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I wouldn’t be going to sleep in the grass with him. We’d be skipping lecture elsewhere.

you were there and everyone else was there
