The revelation. I loled at when Ritsu finally remembered Takano and finally understood the misunderstanding. And on top of it, Takano is neighbor!!

I notice they changed something. LIke in manga, i thought Ritsu has lived at the apartment next to Takano for many years, but in the anime they changed it where they had Ritsu move there there b/c of work. But it was great!

Only disappointment it felt too short...haha I wish they released 2 episodes a week. I kinda see this episode as episode 1 still, b/c it was sort of a to be continued from the first one. but finally next week the real fun begins where Takano starts seducing Ritsu.

The OST's in this episode were so pretty!! ^____^

That was one of the best "confessions" I have ever seen!

"No matter who I was with, I could never forget you."

KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

This pace is really different than the manga...

And WHAT A HORRIBLE MISUNDERSTANDING!!! D;

Takano is so cocky! I LOVE HIM!!

Ah~ I love, love, love it so much.
I'm in love with this anime lol
And yeah they did change the fact that Ritsu lived next to Takano for years and years but they never met because their schedules were totally different xD
I don't like the change, but it's not bad. At least, it's funny.

Interesting. I was wondering why that neighbor scene seemed different. xD

The confession was cute though, and roundhouse kick? Maybe that's just a joke that the translator used, but either way it was still pretty funny. Lol

Another funny episode.
It's probably just the CR translation but the wording is so rough, it really changes your view on the show. Takano seems like such a brute yet not with Ritsu. Have to see how these two get it on as neighbours.

Takane made mah heart skip a beat when he was confessing <3 Just like the manga <33

Though I don't get why they made Ritsu move into his apartment right now cause of his job ~ He was supposedly living there for a year ! And not that it makes a huge difference but he used it as an argument later for something :v

It's a tiny bit different than the manga. Ritsu has actually been living there for about a year but since they had different schedules, they never ran into each other. I hoped it would've been like that because I love the part where they realize they live next door and Takano is all like "Did you come to confess?" lol

I love when Ritsu realises who Takano-san really is, hehehe.

I wonder why they decided to change the living next door situation... But I guess it's not a huge big deal.

I like Ritsu's dream at the beginning of the ep. The dream had a cameo of Usagi-san and was also a foreshadowing of the end of the ep.

Ritsu's one stubborn uke, but I guess it would be really anticlimatic and against his personality to just simply admit he's in the wrong and accept Takano's confession.

In the manga, Ritsu had been staying in his apartment for half a year and was frantically searching for a new one when he found out Takano was his neighbour, despite renewing his lease recently!

Still, when Takano told Ritsu he's going to make Ritsu say 'i love you' to him, it gave me a tender doki doki feeling inside.

I'm really loving this anime.

He's your boss and your neighbor.
Good old animanga making things like that possible.
In real life the chances of that happening are probably like 1%.

This anime so far has a good mix of serious soliloquies and comic outbursts.

Although it resembles Junjou Romantica, I like the different angles they come from.

Let's see where it goes!
