Nikaidou's delusion..of course she would want the perfect date and kiss from Takahashi

Their character chemistry improved this episode imo, nothing too impressive though. Feels like Takashi is trying to act more cool as usual. The kiss though..bet she won't ever forget that.

Well I liked the advice Chiaki gave Kaho, but then she turned into a massive bitch at the end. Her bullying that one dude really felt mean spirited and out of place. I don't give a shit if she was trying to make him decisive or what it was wrong. The date before that was fairly cute fluff too, with a kiss and everything, but that end just stunk. No drama show. You don't get to have drama and 1,000 dick and poop jokes. The only drama that might work is Kaho seeing that couple her age and getting sad, that was alright.

Kaho surely got some serious imagination about her first date with Kanade. But yeah, their date are pretty exciting. Especially for that "final task" to end the Date mission.

What's with the Kids? LOL

Average episode, Not as funny as the past two.

The date was kinda cute, Lol at Arashi's photo shoot.
The kiss was nice, Kinda weird when you think that her first kiss was with an elementary school kid XD

The ending was a bit dramatic, Hope this doesn't turn into a reverse harem with loads of love drama, Cause I really don't think it would fit this show.

I still can't believe they're kids. There's gotta be some kind of twist, like maybe they were cursed to become their younger selves inside their minds or something like that.

Shinohara should be with Kaho but then again she's not worth his cute little face since she's a pedo.

That after credits scene tho xD

Why does this show have such a low rating? It should at least be 7.10 or so. I think it deserves to be in the 7 range, anyway. This episode was definitely not as good as the last two, but the Engrish made it funny. They were trying to put more relationship development in it than humor. Still good!

The entire date was truthfully kind of boring. It could be seen as cute and fitting toward the couple though. I liked how Chiaki said how "there are as many kinds of dates as there are couples."
As for the ending, I did not expect Shinohara's feelings toward Kaho.
That reveal of his face was completely adorable.

I can't be the only one who thinks the eyes (particularly Kaho's) are lop-sided or way too far apart? It's distracting.

It was amusing listening to them say "Gin" and "tama" so close to each other. It would've been funny if they actually said Gintama. Though, the date itself was a bit boring.

Is it just me or it seems like Kazuo and Taga are against their relationship because they are interested in Kanade? Well, Taga did say "If I'm interested in anyone, is Kanade" and it looked like he was talking seriously.

This series continues to make me laugh so much. The entire premise is super ridiculous but Kaho and Kanade scenes are just so silly that it makes me smile. Also it's a fictional story people, stop complaining its creepy every episode when you already know that's what the entire show is about.

I definitely think this show is getting better.....although this may be the first time in Romance Anime History that I didn't want the two to actually kiss.

I think with that ending, this show might be getting some plot, might be pretty good.

I felt for Kaho when she saw the "normal"/same age couple walking down the street together. I was glad to see the couple kiss at the end.
Shinohara is SO CUTE! lol I didn't expect to actually see his face.
I feel too that maybe this show is going in the reverse harem direction.

The initial episode was boring. But the Last Mission was kinda cute(still can't believe a high scooler and primary schooler would kiss).

Ren-ren photo shoot was funny.

The clones in the Star Wars prequels physically reached age 20 a mere 10 years after... um... "birth" isn't the right word. These three boys presumably came from a similar facility.

I don't know why Taga is acting like an elite ass when he's the one who sexually harassed Kaho. I think some girls are turned on by that kind of behavior. I noticed even in Korean/Japanese dramas, webtoons and in real life, some girls like cold-hearted guys, who will treat them indifferently when in front of others but will be sweet towards them when they're alone. Crazy, stupid females.

Jesus Fucking Christ, Kaho! He's in elementary school and you're fantasizing about sucking his face on a rowboat. I feel like she's going to become one of those nasty teachers that seduce their students and end up getting impregnated by one. Ugh. Too many of those teachers on the news lately.

Blue-hair guy looks more like a girl than Kaho. He should've been the lead and this could've turned into a hot yaoi. Also, this stupid reverse harem, why would blue hair like Kaho? They've barely interacted and now the little wimp's crying over her?

I wonder if Noguchi, Kazuo likes Kanade. Loved Kazuo's english!!! (and english class)

I was laughing at her, a high schooler, looking for her date, an elementary schooler, at the elementary school. In real world people would be notified of suspicious activity, as they should, then again... I don't know.

That was a great date! It's unfortunate she couldn't see mount fuji with him. She questions the date, but I much rather that date then the ones she is jealous of.
Kanade & Arashi are both youthful spirits even with 10+ year age gap. Kaho got to have nice talk with Chiaki. Arashi is clearly triggering, but Chiaki is right.

I can't believe they actually had kiss, with Kanede leading! Kouta who apparently loves Kaho is jealous, wonder if he will confess, and then what will happen then.

5/5, outside of age thing throwing me off, loved it!

I have 2 main guesses:
-Age gap is very off-putting, even when no s** is involved and they clearly look much older and are acting older overall
-It's apparently a Shoujo (targeted to young girls) as opposed to most which are Shounen or Seinen (young boys or men)
