Inviting Hana so Miyo can reunite with her was a sweet move, didn't see that coming.

I'm happy that Kudou seems to appreciate the braid that Miyo handcrafted.

Seems like there will be more drama incoming but i hope nothing too bad will happen to the Kudou household.

I can't understand why the story portrays Kudou as hard to get along with. In reality, he's an incredibly romantic partner๐Ÿ˜Ž

Regarding Kaya, I adore her appearance, but her personality is quite challenging to accept.๐Ÿ™„

Now this is adorable. A handmade gift like this with feelings in it is worth far far more than something expensive which is empty of feelings.
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.

-First time I watched this episode I thought it was wholesome and it made my day, but after thinking for a while I kinda feel like the hug was too soon. I mean, don't get me wrong the episode was still good, but now I'm not sure what I think about the show.
-From second episode I felt like it would be a cliche where the main character would actually have powers. Which would explain some of the scenes from other episodes and the hug in this one, but I kinda got bored of that cliche.
-So now idk what would be better, 1st that she has powers, or 2nd that she was just too kind so he quickly started liking her. But 2nd one would kinda make Kudo a blank character, to me at least.
-How many times we have seen in the romance anime that the mc's love interest for few episodes be could harted towards the mc, and than be all of a sudden kind and deaply in love with mc. People who are cold hearted towards strangers wouldn't after one day start being kind. They first need to get to know you, but even so they wouldn't fall in love so fast.
-I think that show kinda failed to make us know why he likes her, we know why we like her, but he can't read her mind and see things she did when he wasn't there, so I don't know why he likes her so much after just cupple days.
-Owerall this Anime was good and I know it's not slice of life, so it's kinda my fault for picking it when I wanted to watch something relatable. It's still a masterpiece I'm just gonna be bit picky about some of the scenes, becose I'm kinda not in the mood for watching something that's like a fanfiction. But I would definitely recommend it.

Edit: I hope it will be explained why he fell in love with her so fast in future episodes, but for it not to be explained with becose of her powers

Things are moving a lot faster than I expected. I really didn't see a spark of romance between the two and out of nowhere he says he wants her to stay with him?? Kinda weird. I didn't like that Koji didn't really try to stop Kaya when she was being a bitch. I knew something bad was going to happen when the maid stepped away. It was sweet of Kudo to set up a date so that Hana and Miyo could talk. Well, at least we now know where the paper cranes came from! Also does Kouji have any supernatural abilities himself?

Thank you!!! I was thinking the same exact thing. Why did he fall in love with her so fast when they haven't had a lot of intimate interactions with each other, other than the "date" they had in the city. Why were there rumors about him being cold when he hasn't really been /that/ cold to Miyo? The love sparked randomly and it doesn't feel right because there was no suspension or any build up

Another great episode.

Kiyoka making those demands to the Saimori family. What a badass.

I was wondering whether we'd ever see Hana, and I'm really glad that we did.

And I'm glad things were quickly resolved instead of being stretched out. The fact that Miyo has no supernatural abilities and saying it to Kiyoka I thought would take several episodes, but am I glad it happened so quickly! And of course, Kiyoka accepted her nonetheless.

I hope nothing bad happens to Miyo with Koji's father. What the hell is he planning?

Communication is so hot. Military-san is now my favorite My Happy Marriage waifu, childhood friend should kindly leave Miyo alone. I cannot believe that he doesn't do <i>anything</i> to stop that colorful hag. Sure, he says he cares, but does he really? Aren't men supposed to be the de facto owners of their wives at this time and place? Miyo asks Military-san if she can breathe each day, clearly she was raised to obey her husband. So what about the hag? Can't childhood friend just give her a nice slap across the face for being unkind? Rinse and repeat a couple times and maybe she'll learn to keep her mouth shut.
He's a complete wimp and he doesn't know how to speak convincingly, but he sure as hell should be stronger physically. He claims to care but has done exactly <b>nothing</b> to help.

God Miyo is so deeply traumatized. But this episode was overall very wholesome after the incident. I'm worried for what's to come. Miyo doesn't need more trauma but also where tf will the story go? Something has got to happen

I loved that Miyo was so happy she wanted to return the favor. I love the hair tie Miyo made and I thought it was an excellent gift for Kiyoka because it was something he could always wear and it would always remind him of her every time he wears it.

Meu episódio favorito até o momento, ele é bonito na relação com o kiyoka e miyo, no quanto ela ja amae sente a necessidade de agradecer por ter trazido momentos felizes pra vida dela, quanto parte seu coração quanto trás a irmã dela pra cena, mostra de forma muito pesada o quanto a felicidade e o dia de alguém pode ser estragado quando se depara com aspectos ruins de sua vida.

This episode was so cute. I’m glad that Miyo is taking small steps to express herself, even if she couldn’t do that in the heat of the moment when approached by her sister.

I have to say though, that guy Koji is a little hoe. He should’ve stood up for Miyo at least a little. And her sister is a bitch too.

Has a great story line that gives you all the emotions there is & I love rewatching them over & over. There should be more shows that have a similar love story where they gradually fall in love & not rushed there is ups & downs like in normal relationships. One of the best shows there is & can't wait for more episodes. LOVE My Happy Marriage.

KIYOKA COMING IN WITH THE CLUTCH PLAYS. Writing a letter to Hana and having her come see Miyo was such a giga brain move to make.

It physically hurts to Miyo be sad man, like when Kaya spotted her in the town. I wanted to intervine sooo bad. Also, Koji is such a bitch man. He wants to "save" Miyo but he can't stand up for her when her sister is degrading her in public. If I were there, things would've gone down like that.

Now since things have been going pretty good so far, we're gonna be approaching 'The Dip' soon here. I for one will be in sheer agony when that happens, cause that's just what happens when going through The Dip.

This keeps getting better and better. It's hardcore in the emotional elements.

When first presented, Kiyoka appeared to be a monster. Yet, it turns out that he an emotional support for Miyo, something she never experienced in her family.

It's an unlikely couple that became the power couple.

Rewatching episode 4:

It's another emotional moment that is pivotal towards advancing their relationship. However, this is not yet the best part of this series. It's the second half.

I can't believe some people prefer the first half when it seems that Miyo is a weakling who needs a saviour in the form of Kiyoka. Clearly, they're expecting too much of the Cinderella story to apply 100% to this when it's clearly not the case. It's more than that.

The official translations are consistently horrible. They are so bad.
Super localized and liberally translated, not matching what's actually being said. Changing context and nuance.

Strong urge to drop this after this episode. Everything is just so jarring from a realism standpoint, and very out-of-place. Everything happening in the story is so forced, convenient, and pandering to the female MC to elevate her as a tragic character that needs coddling and protection from the world. Story arcs have horrible set-up and are clearly used as (cheap) plot devices to move the story and bring cheap emotions and melodrama out; they aren't built-up, set up, or executed very well. Not written into the story well at all. Same problem with Ranking of Kings S1 in the latter half. A huge shame because the ingredients are there to really make all this work wonderfully.



---

I agree with the other comments here about the strange and fast devotion/love/affection Kiyoka has for Miyo. One good example of all I laid out above as criticism.

I hope this is just a problem with the adaptation and it's more of a slow, satisfying burn in the original source material.

Thank you both for this. I had those same nagging thoughts. It is very jarring, completely breaks me out of the story. The same goes for the Hana arrival and her "girl talk" with Miyo. Wasn't set up or executed well at all.

I only hope this is an anime adaptation problem and is better handled in the original source material.

Written "like a fanfiction" is the PERFECT way to describe how I feel about the writing/directing thus far. Completely pandering and convenient for the MC. Very wooden one-dimensional characters, storytelling is so in-your-face and tacky about how they want the audience to feel. Whatever the narrative needs to be, it is written in without proper build-up or development.
