Well, I guess I'm glad Taiki is at least starting to take some action. He needs to put in effort if he wants to get anywhere. That said, I can kinda get why he's been hesitant. Chii is the older one here, and their living situation brings both opportunities and complications when it comes to pursuing her. But whatever, and yeah, Haryuu continues to be the best bro, and a bit of a tsundere when it comes to badminton lols.

But seriously, Taiki, you need to get it together. We're only on episode ten; it's way too soon for you to be holding her hand. And I think what he did after is probably one of my main gripes with his character, that being that Taiki's indecisiveness is so fucking frustrating. Like how can you be subtle about feelings as strong as love? And yeah, meanwhile, isn't it awfully convenient that Chinatsu's friend just happens to bring up the topic of living with a boy out of nowhere... lmao.

A couple of episodes ago i was wondering if we ever gonna see the story form the Chinatsu's point of view, how she reacts to all of this interaction she has with Taiki ... and this week we get something of the sort.

When she was walking with her classmate to do the practice, the dialogue they had was pretty much that. And its what lead her to what she told Taiki at the end too, she really is too serious just like Taki's dad said.

Chinatsu set a border line. But I'm curious about the progress of Taiki-chinatsu's relationship until they become lovers.

Chinatsu set a border line, but how they will get closer and Chinatsu fall in love to Taiki too

I hold myself not to read the manga, because to keep the 1st experience when I watch the anime

Finally we get an ep from Chinatsu perspective! Taiki been doing all this freaking out lately, but Chinatsu is a teenaged girl at the end of the day and she feels the effects of living under the same roof of someone she has a crush on too. Was cool seeing Taiki’s dad interact with Chinatsu, I know she said Taiki has a lot of his mom in him, but I see a lot of his dad as well.

Summer vacation coming up! Perfect time for some teen angst. That means a festival episode with Chinatsu and Hina in Yukata is inevitable as well lol. Can’t wait to see them inevitably stress over who’ll ask who on a date. I know Chinatsu’s “drawn a line” but that ain’t gonna last lol.

This anime is forcing the romance too hard:

  • Chinatsu's bs fall from last episode
  • Funami talking about Chinatsu falling in love when she knew she was staying with relatives
  • the car driving into them


Too unrealistic

I had high hopes for this anime. Beautiful stunning visuals, good animation and Im a fan of Chinatsu’s design, but the story of how they become lovers is just off. Bro has every God given leverage to get the girl of his dreams but fumble at every given chance. I mean come on, they live in the same house. Chinatsu has also been quite assertive from the getgo, Chinatsu gave him matching feet bracelet, went to the aquarium together and commented on his muscles, and now she was literally on top of him and what does bro do? I might drop this, the mc is too boring.

started as a fluff episode, but poor Taiki

Chinatsu must still feel that she is standing between him and Hina.

Anyway, Haryuu is the best bloke, and this episode again shows us why.

Ah, they didn't even get interrupted. Chinatsu just got off pretending like nothing even happened.

Then that thing happened near the end. Ik Chinatsu probably thinks Taiki is into Hina or something. But to verbally tell Taiki to forget about what happened and set up a boundary... That feels worse than a rejection.

First he lost his chance to go to the nationals and now this. Taiki's in a bad place rn. Wonder what he's gonna do. Maybe he might even randomly start dating Hina. That'd be funny.

damm, THIS is how you write a good slow-burn romance anime, really like it.
poor Taiki tho, he got roommate-zoned. again.
so far, easily the best romance anime i've seen in recent seasons.
very fuwa-fuwa

that's insane how they shamelessly baited us. I was already upset about the unnecessary cliché ending of them falling onto each other. Ep9 ended with chinatsu clearly reaching towards taiki's face, ep10 started with chinatsu reaching for the towel. They even changed the animation a bit because she's reaching higher (towards the towel) in this ep, talk about scamming...

I loved the clouds and sunsets in this episode. The food never fails to look delicious.

It seems like Chi also lowkey likes Taiki. Well...maybe she drew a line because Taiki keeps acting weird around her. Its cute how wholesome Taiki's family is, but I o wonder why the dad said "a little too serious"

see, on Netflix it shows that episode 10 comes out on the 5th, which is a week from Thursday, which is what I had thought it was releasing on. I thought Netflix was running a week behind πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Everything was cute in this episode. But, damn that line from Chinatsu really did damage to Taiki. Poor guy. Chinatsu 100% has feelings for Taiki but she doesn't realize it yet and Hina, my baby is as adorable as ever. The Summer Vacation is here. Let's see where things go from here.

I feel bad for Taiki-kun. I understand his feelings, he somehow is attracted to Chinatsu and wants to build a better relationship with her, but something feels off. Maybe he should tell her what he really feels about her, to make himself clear.

This anime is transforming into a romance rather than a sports one, but I like the style!

So more misunderstandings. She probably thinks that Taiki is in love with Hina so she backed off. Ehh.

No she literally says it’s cos she doesn’t want to do anything inappropriate whilst under someone else’s roof. Which developing a romantic relationship and having intimate physical moments with your host’s son qualify for in her eyes. It’s projection, she’s starting to feel how close they are getting and that romantic feelings are just ever so subtly developing and so she’s shutting it down.

@CalebFalconer Episode 10 is actually available in Netflix JP and the global release is 1EP behind. Previously, Netflix would release new episodes with English subs in Japan so many people used VPNs to change location and watch the series or get it from the Sea🏴‍☠️ .

But Netflix got wind of this, and they stopped releasing with ENG subtitle when airing in JP. Currently, a fan-sub group is doing fan-subs for it, so people are probably watching it or they understand Japanese.

But people like us, we have to wait for global release as I don't know JP and I don't want to watch the fan-sub version.

I hope I'm not the only one who got a bit hungry after seeing all of the food that Taiki's family were cooking up during their barbecue. Seeing plenty of delicious meat and veggies is enough to make my stomach grumble! XD

One thing that was pretty interesting was the talk that Chinatsu and Taiki had after buying the shopping for the barbecue. I can understand Chinatsu's reasoning for wanting to forget the little incident from the previous episode and wanting to set a boundary line, but poor Taiki took it rather badly. Either way, summer vacation is here, so there'll be more moments where this "boundary line" will be put to the test to see if it's up to the task or not.

Seeing Hina and the other students being enthusiastic about getting together to get all of their summer homework done was a cute touch, especially as Hina herself isn't a fan of homework in general judging from her reaction. That's another thing I can relate to myself.

Chinatsu's overly sincere concern over not eating the ice cream bar before everyone else is the most innocent thing ever it's hilarious.

Even though she's destined for heartbreak, I can't get enough of Hina's extra fluffy chemistry with Taiki. Now that the ball's in her court again it'll be interesting to watch her make another play.

Nice to finally catch up πŸ‘πŸΌ
The concerns and worries of these kids are really reminding me of my first crush, more than nearly any other anime. And the complications of sharing a house is such a difficult thing to deal with. How can he be honest about his feelings when they have to live under the same roof even if he gets rejected? It’s written with real consideration of how he must be agonising about that.
I can’t see a way forward for them, but that’s how good writers surprise us. Roll on next week!

@Marinate1016 No, I think this is one of the best animes of this admittedly weak season, and that's why it disappoints me when it resorts to such cheap cliche tricks. And no, this wasn't a "Chinatsu perspective" episode. Chinatsu is still more or less a black box. Where was her inner voice?
