Yup, got train that body with pushups, stretching, and working out.

Jokes aside, we got to see some of Gotou although she seems more quieter than the others. Pretty much another episode following the anime's formulatic gimmicks. I find it amusing how much they are pushing the amount of training in this anime.

[Nice](https://imgur.com/a/qgvLPM3) I love the character designs and art style in this show so much.

Konomi continuing to come into her own with climbing and bonding with her teammates, particularly Jun. She’s got a ways to go physically, but she’s determined and committed, you go girl. Can’t wait to see her confidence grow.

More training over here. For an activity like rock climbling (indoor version for this show), that upper body strength is really critical as well as balance so dont mind seeing so much training for the start of the show (although the muscles bit at the beginning felt like I was watching that Dumbbell anime from last year).

Well Konomi made a new friend and it seems she is idolized for her skills by the new friend.
It's a good thing seeing new challenges and Konomi trying hard with them was a good sign.

And finally some body training the main thing Konomi is missing is her body condition she spend way to much time gaming so doing a active sport now means she is lacking in some parts.
So she need to train.

Hard work and training is all good honestly. It's nice to see, I can really root for the main MC because of it. Konomi's interaction with her new friend was very cute also.

"Chubby", yes indeed.

It's training time before the next competition. Konomi faced with the Anti-monkey rock challenge that she cannot complete but after that experience she's determined to get stronger and face the anti-monkey rock once again. Still a lot of fan service though.

Good episode :)

Konomi is training to climb the anti-monkey rock, she needs few more episodes to get strong.

So Konomi is going through an intense training session with the rock climbing club in order to get stronger. Its going to be a struggle for her because she is not use to this much physical activity so she's going to be sore all over the next couple of days.

"Chubby" I guess for climbing it matters, but there's nothing wrong with a bit of chubby. But it sure traumatized Konomi hearing that from Nonoka XD

I feel like Konomi's ass got a lot of attention this episde, damn angles!

This kuudere is super cute and that's a rare thing for me.

Yep, its about time they got to moved up into a serious situations. I just laughed so hard when Sayo mentioned about rebuilt Konomi's body toward a certain heavy training. But, in the end, it just their way to practices more of their technique to be a better person in the incoming competition. The Climbing Club on that school was not even a joke. They were all dedicated themself so much with all of the heavy training, together with the last rock bouldering scene at the end, and it seemed everyone already enjoyed it. Exceptions went to Konomi, obviously. However, gladly, she found out the lost determination she seek, to be a better climber by taking Kiku-chan words as her motivation. Well, lets see how the result of her hardworks in the next episode. I think, she could surpass the anti-monkey rock. Because, yeah, she really deserved that!

Not gonna mentioned about a little interaction between Kiku and Konomi. Kiku very love her father seemed pretty 'eh?' reaction from me. But her statement when she wanted Konomi to be her mother surely gave me an instant laugh. Please, take care of that loli ashes hair, Master Konomi xD.

Also, that Jun and Konomi tiny break interaction in the school was nice too. A little bit of characterization to Jun really appreciated. Its good to see their little scene outside the climbing theme. Because, yeah, they looked so fit as a couple. I hope to see their nice alone interaction again, in the near future.

Thats it for me.

We are introduced to Kiku and Daddy Juzou Dio as the team practice on climbing the "Rock of Sarukae". Konomi is still practicing her stamina and strength as she is struggling this episode to climb To The Top. She is "chubby" but it's not really that bad. And Kiku teasing Konomi to be her mother is really sly of her.

My favorite character finally appears! It's not Kikuko, but his dad Juzo. Also it's hinted that Juzo is single now, either he divorce or his wife died. Because Kikuko teases Konomi about being her new mom. But it's actually me who want to be her new mom LOL so that I can touch her dad's perfect body all night.

time for training! Konomi not able to climb the rock.. but she has earned the respect of a talented climber. Kiku-chan actually talk to Konomi a lot, and even call her master. Well, Konomi background on being a video game addict was put to good use.. playing the same game can bring people together. :)

I also like it being realistic that Konomi cannot climb well due to being weak... it would be unbelievable if she climbed that rock this episode. Maybe she come back here again on a later episode.

Damn, those butt angles! Well, at least it's nice to know Konomi is well endowed in both departments ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Overall, this was... a nice episode actually. Or better than the previous two at least. Really like the idea of doing rock climbing without rope as a way to get mental strength and seeing Konomi actually struggling to become a better climber makes me wanna empathize with her goals even more now. Not to mention that her determination is quite contagious as well. Not gonna lie, it kinda makes me wanna return to the gym and risk my life in the process.

P.S.: Chubby?... where? Nah, Nonoka is just jealous of that Konomi thiccness.

Yep, they're now doing Bouldering....

"Anti-Monkey?" Shees, is that another one of the Original Creator's stupid terminology???? Cu'z there ain't no such thing as any boulder that a monkey can't climb, as long as it's a rock with rough surfaces, the only anti monkey thing is stainless steel pole that has an 8 feet radius.

Funny enough, the girl of the so called best rock climber in japan happens to be so good at it even though, she´s probably the same as Konomi. Theres always one OP character i suppose. Nonetheless, okay episode i suppose. Go get them, Konomi.

Konomi's training starts here, and with strength training for better stamina...coz a chubby figure ain't all that well for rock climbing, D'OH. Lots of Konomi's ass shots, as though mandatory to show the fetish.

Being a professional / competitive rock climber is by no means an easy task, no matter the training technqiues and/or skills to tackle its many problems, and Konomi has a long way to go, more than her puzzle-analytic brain alone, leaving only the brawn left through her athletics.

Silver-hair Kiku reminds me a lot of Tejina-Senpai by looks alone, but for such a junior climber, I'm impressed that she has it hands-down at a young age.

Determination won't bring you all the way girl, so you've gotta work for it!
With that, I do really need to hit the gym soon and dream a 6-pack xD

I can imagine that they are just not showing rest days but still... about 2 months of training before next competition? Especially after showing that she can do barely any push-ups?? If there would be 5 months I could believe but 2, that's sounds kinda ridiculous.

There was the competition we saw, next day training, and then the next was bouldering, they can timeskip after that all they want, but 3 days in a row kills the muscles, I'd say that's pretty basic biology

Oh.. so there was no rest? I was thinking we see during episode at least week or two worth of training between competition and bouldering.

The male wasn't a big problem like many of them often are . He was calm and kept in the background and didn't look funny at MY lesbians. Therefore I accept hes existence,,,, At least for now!


Kiku Honey! Dont you worry. Konomi have zero interest in your father or any other male. She is my little lesbian angel and in the future going to marry her girlfriend Jun,,,YEEEEEEEEEEEES


Overall it was ok . But I want more Yuri! Best moment imo was the lesbian hand holding in the beginning of the episode
