Great episode, a lot of focus on Mimimi, got to learn more about her as well, she’s becoming a favorite of mine fast. Ngl, I also wanna see Hinami lose for once lol (besides at Tackfam) especially knowing Mimimi’s situation now.

If people want social anxiety at it's finest they should watch Watamote. Warning! It doesn't play out as fairytaile-esque as this.


I'm guessing you haven't read Watamote's manga yet? Tomoko pretty much goes through the same character development Tomozaki does but it happens much later so it never made it to the anime.

I cant stop admiring these girls and seeing how cute they are. The amount of help that Tomozaki is getting shows that humanity still exists. The effort that Tomozaki is using and the way how he usues his skills to convince Mimimi that he can help is wonderful.

i feel there's something a bit not right about Mimimi...i can't exactly explain or point-out but it feels like she's being so genki that she has a lot of problems and she's tuning a blind eye to all of those and just putting-up a big front...
4/5.

I do. Things are definitely changing for Tomoko, but mentioning that would've been besides the point I was trying to make and I didn't want to take away the surprise for those picking up the manga after the anime. Also think things in Watamote didn't go as smoothly as here.

It was never bad tbh...
Just saying the first episode was unbearable to watch and I had to pause because of the second hand embarassment but fortunately the mc developed fast so by know it's a comfortable watch for me...that's what I meant☝🏾

4/5.


she definitely has sort of an inferiority complex when it comes to Hinami... but the core of it probably stems from herself. It will be explained in next episode about her relationship with Hinami...

Also, I guess they won't touch it in the anime, but later in volume 6.5 & 8, we'll learn what kind of family background does she have, which is also briefly explained in Mimimi's spinoff manga "Nanami Minami wa Kagayakitai". FYI it's a spinoff manga with Mimimi as main character, which takes place in alternate timeline where she doesn't run in the student council election and pursues career as a newbie model for her mother's fashion product company. In that manga Tomozaki is helping Hinami as her election campaign manager (instead of Mizusawa).

Not much screen time for Hinami this about. Episode was centred around Tomozaki developing his relationship with Mimimi by helping her with the campaign.

Mimimi is overshadowed by Hinami and she feels that winning the campaign over her would bring her out of Hinami's shadow.

I wish both of them good luck and may the best girl win!!


The great thing about this anime is that all the gals gpt their screentime quite fairly so to speak

Great episode! Show just gradually gets better as it goes by. If I didn't like Mimimi before I sure as hell do now. She was fantastic this episode. Also Tomozaki, I can relate when he was saying some out of character shit, I do that sometimes lmao.

Fuuka might not have much screentime this episode but her few moments of screentime were adorable. I hope the Fuuka and Tomozaki ship set sails. Looking forward to the next episode.

This is my favorite episode so far. Minami was very cute and her character dynamic with Tomozaki was superb. Fuuka was also there, cute as always.
Gotta admit it, when Hinami's presence is kept to minimum I actually really enjoy this show.

I like Mimimi and Tomozaki's developing friendship. With Tomozaki's down to earth and kind aura it seems that Mimimi feels like she can let her more vulnerable side show and Tomo always appears genuinely comfortable and happy around her. It's a much healthier and natural relationship than he has with Hinami

The best eps so far. I really like the Mimimi and Tomozaki growing friendship. Mimimi is so similar to Iroha. They both want to be Student Council and feels like the MC wants to confessed to her.

Also when Tomozaki calls Fuuka cute, I can't stand. She really is cute.

I'm wondering whether Mimimi will get more spotlight after this arc. Doubtful, but we can hope.

My guess is that after the elections, we might get a mini plotline about a slightly jealous Tomozaki...

We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths.
As death comes to embrace you, you will realise what you are.
That's what death is, don't you think?

Here, from the LN, the lines are exactly the same. Not sure why Funi/AnimeLab didn't use it.

I'm in love with this anime. It is all about character development, and Tomizaki is progressing in his on pace. Let's see who will won the school election. I'm betting it will be a big improvement for him, whether Minmi or Hinami win.

(The female characters are so cute >.<)

Hinami is just a bit too good to be true, for me. She seems to be using people as some kind of social experiment, I'm not sure that she is such a good person, to be honest.

Because MC seems to be better when he isn't with her. Mimimi called him brains immediately and he actually interacts better with her than Hinami. If someone tells you that you need to fix yourself, you start to believe it. But Mimimi and Fuuka haven't had any issues with him and speak to him normally and it turns out that he doesn't need as much fixing as Hinami is suggesting. The fact that he told him to be Mimimi's campaign manager and then was arrogant enough to say 'she can't beat me, it doesn't matter who the campaign manager is', makes me think that she has quite a nasty side to her and she doesn't particularly respect or like any of the other characters that much. Her efforts to help people improve seem to be more about her than about them.

It's time for Mimimi to shine!

Looks like Tomozaki Kun failed in the first attempt but managed to get thru the second time as a helper!
Tomozaki sure does know a lotta things when it comes to elections huh xD
His new nickname 'Brain' xD.

Looks like Mimimi wants to beat Hinami cuz she is always the second and doesn't get noticed.

Hoping for Mimimi to win!Looking forward for the next episode!!

This episode is really fun. Tomozaki-kun now have to rely on all of the things Hinami-san taught to him and become Mimimi's Campaign Manager for the election. And also, in order to defeat Hinami-san, the toughest boss in the Game of Life.

Mimimi licking Tama's what? Woah, we're in the high level of yuri here and they're cute too!

Also love to see Tomozaki-kun got improved from being an introverted and become more open to Mimimi. Next episode's gonna be interesting.

Mimimi makes me smile every time she talks, it's so enjoyable. She is so energetic and so fun to watch, however, it's not like she doesn't deal with her own problems. I'm actually lost as to which of the girls will win the election, here's to hoping for Mimimi!

This was the turning point of this series. It's undeniable now that this is a top tier show. The main character's development carries the show. He's come a long way and to watch him grow is a pleasure.

This was the best episode so far. Minami's over the top personality works. I hope she wins, but I feel like she won't. Her hair colour is one of the most beautiful shades of blue I've ever seen in an anime character. Kudos to the design team.

That smile by Hinami was reassuring. Makes me wonder if she will end up with Tomozaki. Not sold on the idea yet. It's sort of similar to dating a therapist or a doctor, but they can get away with it.

Excellent character development for Tomozaki. The series gets better.

Character development? Lol, Tomoko just goes from shy pervert to outgoing pervert overnight because the writers wanted more CGDCT things. Although, ironically, in the old days, the authors themselves moking such titles.

I don't like Mimimi at all. Her appearance doesn't fit her personality and/or her grades. She looks like innocent yamato nadeshiko, acts like retarded, overactive genki and studies like genius. Sorry, i don't believe in such character. The writer forgot to choose a few traits and used all of them instead. That's an example of childish writing.
On the other hand i totally understand her motivation, because Aoi is getting really annoying with her army of simps and perfect everything.
