| An episode without Masha makes me sad, I feel like she's been somewhat pushed to the side. Which I mean is fair I guess but I wish she had a bit more of a role than just the comfort character we see sometimes. This was a really good episode regardless. Honestly at first I thought this was just gonna be an episode of Ayano pampering Kuze. Which I would have been all for ngl. This episode made me like her a lot more she's a great maid. Yuki is evil af tho. I wonder if she somehow managed to make Kuze sick. Or maybe she was just waiting for a moment like this to make her move. Alya unironically feels really out of place It really feels like she's just getting constantly played and just hanging onto Kuze. Were Kuze and Yuki are really the ones taking centre stage here. Even ayano feels like she's doing way more than Alya. |
| I was waiting for this moment, volume 3 is when shit gets real for the first time. There are a lot of episodes to catch up with, but I should do so by episode 12, which will be a great wait to end S1 and leave people hyping S2. |
 |
| Finally, I have been waiting for them to get serious about this student council election, and this episode kicked it off nicely. Kuze vs Yuki, they both have that same look when they get excited about a serious competition, took them long enough. On Yuki, that face was terrifying to Alya, but on Kuze, she says, "That's a great expression too." And now Taniyama, Sayaka & Miyamae, Nonoa are joining the fight with Alya & Kuze to defeat Yuki. But unfortunately, there is only 1 episode left, which is disappointing, should have been 24-25 episodes. |
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.  |

| @DragyG That's a nice illustration, but what exactly do you mea by "she is a master", I think that went over my head. π |

| Thank God for these side characters lol |
| I did not expect that I'll find a show that will make Cote and Ayanokoji look more interesting and well written in my eyes but here we are lol. What a boring fest. I better just rewatch Cote if thats how its going to be |
 |
| Signature family smile I see. People say we entered Yuki's villain arc but nope, what we entered is Masachika's villain arc. He's gonna morb all over Yuki's plans. Truly the plot of all time. |

| Honestly, one of the best episodes of the anime so far. It seems like we are getting back to like it was in the beginning of the anime, where the story was going strong, and the fan-service was a side thing. In fact, this episode barely got any fan-service, which is appreciated honestly. Yuki playing those nasty tricks against Alya was just malicious, and shows she's capable of anything to get what she wants, but it's understandable, due to the pressure she has to win the elections. On the other hand, Alya surprised me in this episode, because she really was determined to win that "debate", she just wasn't ready for that backstory reveal, which is honestly understandable too. In other episodes, it just seemed like Alya relied on Kuze too much, but on this one, I felt like the reason for her to be caught off guard was really genuine, if we can put it like that. But it's interesting how she wasn't really sad that she wasn't on the same level as Yuki, like Yuki wanted, but instead she was just frustrated by herself, for not being able to overcome that backstory reveal (also, Yuki really made it seem like Kuze is dead xD). I actually think Alya's reason to win the election is better than Yuki's, because the truth is, since Alya is doing it for herself, you know she's giving her 100% when she wins, since she really wants it. On the other hand, Yuki just wants to win to make her family happy, and at the end of the day she won't have the same passion has Alya if she wins. I don't know, I feel like a viewer I only understood why Kuze chose to support Alya over Yuki (besides having a crush on her) this episode too. Also, interesting to see that the other 2 girls are going to help someway now too. I wonder how this anime is going to end, since next episode is the last, and I wonder if they will be able to adapt the whole closing ceremony in just one episode. Also, everyone said that this season would end with a really big reveal, and with the current setting, I wonder what this reveal is going to be. Anyways, this episode was for sure much better than the previous ones, and if the next episode maintains this quality, I might give this anime a better score than what I was thinking actually. |

I couldn't stop smiling and being excited when I was reading it. This episode will serve as the closure of V3 - which used to be my favorite volume until I read V4. And V4 is still the best out of all. |

| Dang only 1 more episode until the end of the season. Not ready for this to end yet |

It feels like Yuki's villian arc has officially begun, so I can't wait for the finale and see how the rest of Volume 3 will be adapted. Biggest question until next week: Who will prevail?
By the way, Kuze is really lucky to have two maids to nurse him. He surely deserved a harem huh.

| @RaiYou Honestly it's a good thing this is meant to be taken as a comedic show, what yuki did classifies as drugging and at the best case scenario, most people if they had a family member literally drug them, would disown family over something like that and get a restraining order. So calling yuki a villain here is the least of the problems in this for me, that said it was a good if not extreme betrayal episode. |

Well, do keep an eye on her. That's all I ask of you. She'll let herself loose at the final episodes of Season 2.

| I wonder when, if ever, Alya will make the connection that Yuki and Masachika are related, especially when Yuki knows about Masachika's health and has her maid helping him out. Speaking of the maid, Ayano looked good in that outfit and the girls in the ED looked even nicer with their makeup. I'm not sure how this will end but I hope for a S2 announcement because with one episode remaining there are too many plot lines open. |

Nothing. Masachika doesn't talk to his mom and his mom doesn't talk to him untill volume 9 (which would be episode 10 of season 3 in case they go untill that with the same pacing)
Their common issue is one of the cornerstones of Roshidere so I understand you were expecting something but trust me. They need some other things to happen before having these two finally talking. (Roshidere's true stakes are just starting to get introduced)

And what happened after he met his mother after that parent-teacher meeting? Did they skip it or what? We saw his memories and then suddenly he's sick? How does that make any sense?

That's not my point. My point is that there wasn't any transition between those scenes. It should have been either at the end of episode 10 with him just walking away or something at the beggining of episode 11. That, at first, made me feel as if I skipped an episode or didn't watch episode 10's post ending scene.
| @Dominopir He didn't interact nor talk to her in the LN. Masachika went home with his grandpa afterwards. No wonder they didn't feel the need to animate it. I suppose from your, an anime-only's standpoint, the final scene of Episode 10 served as a cliffhanger so I suppose that's a valid point. But now you know. |

| Yuki is truly devious and manipulative, taking advantage of Masachika's cold to leave Alya vulnerable. She even lied about her intentions to become the student council president and about her brother's death, all to make Alya feel defenseless. There’s no doubt they're siblings Yuki’s chilling smile definitely sent shivers down the spine. Now, Masachika is about to make his move, using Nonoa and Sayaka to secure Alya’s victory. This is turning into quite the strategic battle! |
 |
Dang Masachika fell into a trap and Yuki just pressured Alya into doing what she wanted. Although, Masachika feeling excited finding out about that situation lol, he put on a devious smile as Yuki did earlier xD. Now Masachika is cooking up his own plan which we'll probably see it play out next episode. Since that episode is gonna be the last, I wonder how it'll go.  |

 Never ending plan to watch list... |
| You know? Last week I still was willing to give Suou's mom the benefit of the doubt but after today's episode that's it, I don't like her at all. |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
| Yuki really nailed it, broken Alya's ambitions with that move. Wow Yuki finally seems like a final boss. Really good episode. Alya taking care of Kuze was so cute. Also Ayano in maid outfit just glorious! Kuze past remember me Kousei past, they seems similar. Nice episode 10/10 |
  |
| I almost hated this episode because of what Yuki did, but I really love this episode because of how cute Alya was when she nursed Masachika. No Masha today but we're treated with Ayano.It's a rare moment to see here without Yuki, and she is as sexy as the other characters. Too bad she's underrated. ETA: Masachika's backstory reminds me of that mc from Your Lie in April. It's good for his mental health to leave his mother. |
| oh naw suou played them like that, that press-up against alya was crazyyy and nonoa too. ayano got some time in this one and the ED was another banger. |
 |
| The drama on this anime is reeeeeeeeally weak. At least we have cute girls. |
