Takeda is such a good guy, taking care of Futaba when she's sick. Bet she'll never forget it.

Funny how in the same episode, the role is also reversed to Futaba taking care of Takeda. What a special bond they share. Not going to lie, I think Futaba's reactions this episode was adorable.

Honestly the sick visits where really cute.
And they helped each other out so nicely i guess they still need a little push since they make a cute couple.
Their coworkers where funny as well with teasing Futaba about helping out, Natsumi was also teasing her.

All ends well if one have friends/coworkers that care for you.

Futaba looks nice in the scarf that Takeda gave her for Christmas, and she still fell sick. But the latter is so old-fashioned to use a regular cellphone instead of a smartphone, the smartphone clique keeps everone updated.

Staying alone in an apartment doesn't help Futaba much, and Takeda coming over to service her at the nick of time is nice. Futaba's cries for help makes her childlike, and Takeda is like a parent nursing an adult kid while skimping around her place.

And since Futaba has gotten better, it's time for the old-fashioned Senpai himself to get a smartphone, and Futaba makes the chance to be like a date of sorts and teaching him how to use one. Even the staff daugher-zoned her, which is still funny. Natsumi has seen their affair, and Futaba can't hide it forever.

The old rugged Senpai still needs tutelage on using a smartphone, and Futaba's quite expectating his replies though, so easy to read her. Even better, it's Takeda's turn to get a cold, and Tsukishiro is still the meta character of creepiness. As expected, Futaba returns Takeda's favour, and this time he DID say it right that Futaba would make a great wife. But the reason why Takeda caught a cold is because of his judo training (which can be overzealous).

The comparisons between Futaba and Takeda's homes is quite apparent, and one step forward, two steps back in Futaba's conquest for romance. Nice episode!

10/10, seriously Senpai is one of my favorite Male characters in Anime, especially lately, he's such a good guy, confident, not a Beta or a Simp which is like 85% unfortunately. Lmao I feel bad for her, he saw all her damn teddy bears so she seems like such a kid, he'll never see her womanly charms now! 😩 Lol. Also she chopped the SHIT out of him 🤣, btw those weights were waaay too light for him, Judo would get him strong abd bigger but unless he was just a freak he'd have to lift WAY heavier weight than like 25-30 because he's a giant

Such a sweet episode. I want to take care Senpai when he's ill too. But I wouldn't touch his beard, I'd go for other part instead, hehe (but while he's quick sleeper he's also light sleeper so he'd wake up immediately). Also, Senpai's bed has tissue paper near it, if you know what I mean, hehe, he wouldn't need any tissue if he live with me.

A little contrived, them both getting cold after one another that is. But a great episode nonetheless, very cute futaba chan is really cute tsundere type (probably the best type of dere).

Takeda's an old and loud guy for sure but he knows how to take care of others. The scik visits were wholesome. He also finally got his own smartphone. Takeda still used those phones from the '90s. The crying Futaba was adorable.
After that, Takeda got sick and Futaba took care of him. That slap was hard though xD
They both revealed that they took care of each other and seems like Sakurai will try her best too.

Takeda and Futaba's interactions really make me smile. Just seeing how open he is and her reactions to him and the teases from the rest was more than enough to hook me in. Very strong start.

Sick episodes are among the most wholesome in anime.

Lol @ Igarashi afraid of dying alone. And I thought Takeda would have an entire gym at home rather than just a few light dumbbells.

Great episode! Takeda is really nice caring for Igarashi like that xD.
Igarashi also helped Takeda pick out a smartphone. 'You better not get in contact with me apart from work related matters!' (More like, please contact me outside of work relayed matters lol). Her expressions are so cute! It was also nice to see Igarashi take care of Takeda when he was sick too.

Looking forward to the next episode!

Just so wholesome.

Was nice from Takeda to come visit the sick and tired Futaba to nurse her a bit. She even returned the favor after he caught a cold as well. That chop on the back of his neck was unexpected, yet expected from our small tsundere.

Star of the episode was Sakurai again. The look on her face after she knew Takeda visited Futaba and Futaba having Takeda's contact information was fantastic, but the way she looked to Kazama and said "I'll work harder too" was just too fucking precious!!!

After watching the twisted shitstorm that is School Days, and the gory stuff that is Elfen Lied in a period of 24 hours, I need a breather like this, and thankfully it's a nice one.

Pretty much the episode where Futaba and Takeda treated each other when one of them fell with flu, plus with some cute moments, of course it's a good episode. Nice to see they're treating each other well, and yes they can make for a perfect couple, they just don't realize it. Nice stuff, wonder what they'll be up to next.

Text book love comedy episode.

Really loving Doga Kobo's animation in this one. They just give so many different expressions to Futaba and the voice acting by Kusunoki has been great as well.

I feel that this show excels the most when the focus is 100% on Futaba/Takeda too. I like the other characters too, but Futaba/Takeda pair is what really drives this show.

Futaba sick is a first and we get to see what happens in her room no surprise Takeda visits her

I mean there's no need to get a new phone if Takeda already has one but it is really helpful to be honest

And Futaba did the same for Takeda when he got sick and that's wholesome just a wholesome episode in general, but you don't touch the Thanos beard let me tell you that, Damn she's relentless.

Ey yo, Natsumi's gaming setup looks great. Really good episode! We got equal sick visits, Takeda finally sees the wife potential of Igarashi, but he's still as dense as his physique. That's a badass way to get sick though lmao.

I thought we'd here more Russian from Tsukishiro, I am disappointed lmao. Also, Sakurai has some really top tier teasing, Kazama better watch out.

This episode has leveled up on wholesomeness. Even though the bounding through sickness trope starting to get a bit stale (it is in almost every romance) but this series pulled it off very well. A few more similar episodes and this anime will become ripen for an 8/10.

I'm gonna be honest. I'd never heard of this manga by the time the anime was announced. And because I've watched/read more than my fair share of "female kouhai annoys male senpai" (Uzaki, Nagatoro, Iroha from My Friend's Little Sister is Only Annoying Towards Me), I thought that this Uno reverse would be interesting. But damn, this guy isn't even annoying. Yeah maybe he treats her like a kid a little too much, but he's just a really fucking solid guy. Also, let's be real, going from seeing her as a good blueprint for a kid he'd like to have one day, to seeing her as wife material, is some real progress and he may not even realise it. And the show is just so damn wholesome overall. As "smaller" female characters go, Futaba is leagues better than characters like Taiga and Louise. Also, I absolutely ADORE the backup cast. While I love the main couple, I hope that Sakurai and Kazama get their own episode together, as well as Natsumi. Shows like this are sometimes made by the backup cast, and having not a wingman or two but a whole squadron behind them including friend, coworkers and even superiors is just *chef's kiss*.

Ah a common caught a cold visiting trope episode. I like how they both got the same sick situations, even on every little detail such as those front door scene. Lmao. Oh man, Futaba is such a precious woman. Its not just her size that i like, but her expression and act always bring me a warmth. Look at how he touched Takeda beard like nothing and then surprised about that. Lmao, funny af moment, and lots of nice image of her too, which somehow i can't help but to save it on my folder for another long time ahead.

Supporting cast also intriguing too this time. I really looking forward to see Futaba's grandpa and the mandatory meet with Takeda. It must be nice. Also, smartphone has been acquired too for senpai, which is a nice additional for this common trope of romcom. That being said, lets see whats next....

A cute episode of two different home visits, with a lot of parallels between the two scenes: I like how we got good glimpses into their personalities and general mindsets based on where things were in their kitchens, how their room was laid out in general and how they reacted once they realised the other had seen their entire apartment.

Damn, this episode made me laugh and grin like an idiot so much that my face is starting to hurt! XD

While it does use the familiar sickness trope that's been used many times before, it was used in this episode with near flawless perfection that it makes it one of my favourite episodes of this entire Autumn season so far. It was really sweet for Takeda to go out of his way to look after Futaba and cook food for her after she fell ill with a bad cold. Seeing her tear up at first made me want to headpat her myself. ='(

Either way, she repaid him by helping him in buying his first ever smartphone and you can tell how much he struggles to understand how a smartphone works. Still, seeing Futaba's precious facial expression after Takeda finally sent a message to her was special and wholesome.

In ironic circumstances, it was Futaba's turn to look after Takeda after he too caught a cold, which was from standing underneath a waterfall for his "training". The way she got close to his sleeping face was super cute, but she woke him up after she touched his beard out of curiosity. Then she reminds us to never judge a book by its cover by grabbing Takeda and hand-chopping the back of his neck to knock him unconscious.

Sakurai deserves a lot of praise here for her reactions throughout this episode, especially when she learnt about Futaba having Takeda's phone contact and how both of them looked after each other from their respective colds, then looking at Kazama while wanting to work harder. That moment there was sweet. =D
