Ok. Yeah I learned platonic meant something else.

That date was very awkward. Kasuga is so pathetic.

Lmao yeah, I knew I wasnt the only one who noticed the weirdest mustache :P

That date went surprisingly well, Nakamura could've done way worse.

Really, I'm still trying to figure out if the staff is just trolling us all with the goofy characters : first, the crosdresser "girl" in the classroom, then the mustache woman last episode, and now, this god damn flying mustache book vendor...I laughed so much when I saw his face, they have to be doing this on purpose haha.

Now about the anime, I'm still in love with this beautifully creepy ending, and felt in love with the opening song too. I just can't skip them, they're so beautiful. I'm really liking this anime since the first episode, I'm looking forward to see where it will go. As someone mentioned it on the episode 3 thread I think, Nakamura is really appearing cuter as the show is progressing, I don't know if it have something to do about how the MC perceive her, or if it's about the viewer, but she's really way cuter in this episode than she was in the first one.

This episode was so cringey to watch with the declaration and all, I can't believe she's accepted...aaah, teenagers girls huh. Can't wait to see the next episode.

I love Saeki so much.
I'm interpreting this as Nakamura being conveyed as the Devil, using temptation against Kasuga, while Saeki is conveyed as, obviously, an angel. Between these two, Kasuga's true self should be revealed. Pretty interesting.

Something is not right with Saeki either.

Could it all be a major set-up by Saeki and Nakamura?

Something like this was meant to happen, Kasuga shouldn't keep forgetting that Nakamura is stalking them.

Also, it's unsettling how he's seeing Saeki as some absolutely pure, angel-like being, almost like she's unhuman. It's not gonna last forever, I'm sure of it.

This was so insanely terrifying for me, I felt like I will die from watching this, watching this hurt me, first time I'm ever getting these emotions from an anime. I swear Nakamura is one of the most evil human beings in the world, she's plotting on some crap. Amazing episode.

Interesting episode, but the premise is starting to wear a little thin with me. I want to see what happens, so I'm planning to see this through til the end.

Nakamura is just getting creepier and creepier. I can't believe Saeko actually enjoyed that date - I guess what she said about not getting out much was true. I figured something would go down with Nakamura following them, but I didn't expect her to drop a whole bucket of water on dude's head. Jeez...

Still can't figure out if Nakamura has an endgame here or if she's just crazy.

If only Kasuga was a little bit smarter, he would've gone to a toilet to detach the gym uniform.

Yeah sure just after Nakamura pour a bucket full of water onto your body during a date, just trust her that she will not reveal his secret...

Is Saeki blind or something ? She literally can see Nakamura from that table. And let's see if she remembers who pour the water to Kasuga

Saeki seems so pure, unlike Kasuga and of course Nakamura.

Hah, that book seller's mustache looked hilarious.

Kasuga's behavior becomes weirder and weirder with each episode, by the way.

I don't know guys, Nakamura begging to see a deviant.
Him being just a normal teenager, yes he stole some clothes and that was terrible, but I feel he is a lot more mild than what she wants him to be.
So nothing overall is really happening, we just have a kid with a snowflake complex and a weird girl that asks him to do weird things, I don't feel the tension of the story at all...

Bro, Come on, you literally, can't keep this up. What's the end game? But yeah, this anime is pretty good so far; I mean, if it's point was to make me yell at the Main Character each time, then yeah. But I think I could of liked it more if it weren't for Nakamura. I don't like her.
