One of my fav eps by far, I can't remember the Aoi's grandma situation at this point in the manga


Speaking of the manga, we're almost halfway I think. Although I'm a bit worried for future episodes as we've past the halfway point of the anime and we're not halfway through the manga yet

wait; if they don’t complete the manga with this season we might be getting a season 2.

Feels like Makoto was forced. No one should enter a romantic relationship that way.

Looking forward to the next episode.

@Luckysunset I doubt a season 2, for one the show probably isn't popular enough for one, and two there wouldn't be enough content left to adapt into ~12 episodes

There was a bit of drama, but in the end, Makoto himself asks for Ryuuji to out with him. If they're the end game, perhaps it's too early. Or perhaps they'll break up, then Makoto will hook up with Hanekawa and god knows who will be the end game.

Am I the only one who finds it a bit concerning that a child would be depicted as falling in love with his same-sex friend?
@ImNotAnOtaku1
Why would this be concerning at all?
You wouldn't bat an eye if it was a standard high school romance anime with a cis straight couple

@ImNotAnOtaku1 nah, they're of the same age, both minors, so it's legal. It's not grooming a non-gay child into having a relationship with a gay person of sufficient age.

Besides, even it this were depicting a controversial topic such as the one I mentioned, at the end of the day, it's how they would handle it. Is the story compelling? Will there be repentance, forgiveness, or even justice?

Again, so many other stuff such as murders and rapes have been depicted in anime. It's not like these anime are asking the viewers to be evil.

I'm worried about Ryuji. I have a feeling Makoto just wants them to be friends again and don't feel that way.

damn just when Aoi was moving forward she gets hit with some bad news, I hope maybe it’s just her grandma having to go to the hospital and not her dying but who knows

CRYING SHITTING THRWOING UP AAAAAA I EXPECTED A CONFESSION TO HAPPEN BUT TO SEE MAKOTO ASKING HIM OUT IN THE SAME EPISODE??? I feel so bad for ryuuji, not being able to say what you want for the longest time, bottling up your emotions. I would know, as a bi guy who still hasn't came out. I'm glad that he's finally said it to makoto, but I'm worried that he just said that so he and ryuuji can be close with each other again like "normal" :( please I need them all to be happy so bad, including Aoi. Hope everything is well with her and her grandma.

We got the confession that we have been waiting for.
I liked the back story for Reiji and how he got mad at those people making fun of Makoto crossdressing.

I have ADD, ADHD & AUTISM, but this won't stop me. Let's keep having fun together.

Im enjoying this show but as much as the adaptation is fine, I hate how the animation studio decides to completely erase Aoi's characterization. They skipped her entire backstory on why she needed to find something special, all her moments with her grandmother and even now when she is at crisis, she gets a cheap redone moment instead of adapting her chapters accurately. Aoi is not my favorite but come on, she is treated alot poorer than she deserves.

I didn't expect Makoto to actually reply with yes. I didn't think we'd go into BL with this one. What about poor Aoi? Something happened to her grandma as well it seems.

Great all the Ryuuji's backstory with Makoto wasn't for nothing, finally he confessed and turned out that Makoto confessed as well in the end... but damn seems like something happened to Aoi's grandmother :/

I really like the ending song. What a feeling.

The anime surprised me after all. A nuanced approach to a delicate topic, self-aware without losing its sincerity. Actually brave, because it doesn't try to hide anything. More anime like this please. Grown up, yet full of dreams.

wow. ok. this episode was... full.

idk what happened to the pacing but shit went down got resolved and went down again in the span of 20 minutes.

a, i'm glad they addressed the crush situation almost immediately so we'll at least get the miscommunication problem at another stage of their relationship

b, idk what's up with makoto but oh boy they have very different expectations with taiga

c, aoi poor girl, i really hope the next episode will focus more on her and she'll be alright

d, no matter what happens i will alwys be 100% for taiga, he's an absolute sweetheart and a very devoted friend

Yaay, I'm glad the cat is out of the bag and now Makoto and Ryuji are dating <3

Hopefully Makoto didn't ask Ryuji out just so things could be back to normal. I think Ryuji would be really sad.

Poor Aoi, she deserves better :(

huh? yoo that was fucked up of Makoto to do to Ryuuji no? He took advantage of Ryuuji's feelings for him to keep things the way they were by asking them to go out, despite him not having that sort of feelings back. It was obvious, and even explicitly said by Makoto at the very end when he said he was glad things would "go back to the way they were" (which is not a feeling you'd have if you were starting to date someone at all...). Idk why the shippers are so happy, blind ppl? I don't mind if the story ends with them ending up together, but as it is, I feel sorry for Ryuuji as his feelings are genuine and dude has gone to bat for Makoto yet now he is being deceived for Makoto's own selfish feelings.
