Yikes, Kazuya with a hangover. Not exactly a good way to wake up to.

Can't stand Mami this episode and even being in her presence feels like she's playing mind games with him. On the other hand, it seems Mizuhara tried to keep her cool when around Mami.

Mami out here being a full-blown hater lmao. This man Kazuya got her praying for his downfall 24/7.

Seeing Ruka standing her ground and declaring their relationship despite knowing she’s in 3rd place is commendable to say the least.

Hopefully we get more Chorizo next week.

Great episode! Kazuya has a bad hangover from last night. Seems he has Mizuhara's personal contact on his phone! But...he can't add her to his friends list in case she thinks he is a weirdo...
He finds a drink in his fridge with a note that Mizuhara wrote on...It wasn't a dream!
Ruka is angry that Mizuhara trusts Kazuya even after she screamed so she could hear xD.
The customer Kazuya gets at the karaoke place is...the horrible Mami! He doesn't want her and Ruka to talk too much for obvious reasons lol.

When she saw how he was talking to Mami! Ruka let off such a dense aura of magicules it could rival Veldora!

Seems Ruka figured out that Mami is his ex girlfriend! 3rd place is not a place she wants to be... so she tells Mami she is his girlfriend! The dead eyes Mami had whilst Ruka was talking were... KOWAI!
Mizuhara runs into Mami on the train...
Well, we all know more trouble is coming Kazuya's way soon enough...

Looking forward to the next episode!

Omg Ruka I don't usually care much for you and your clearly one sided love her for Kazuya... but DAMN girl THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for telling Mami how it is and saying almost everything (and maybe a bit too much) to her face.

Mizuhara is too mature and kind to have said it, Kazuya is too wimpy but you Ruka has said what I have always wanted someone to say to Mami.

Mami is juts that type of girl that I detest the most if anything, the type who would dump someone but just wouldn't move on from them
and when they find out they already got hooked up with another girl or something, they on their case about it and try and get irritated by it.

It's just like that boss from that other anime...Higehiro or something.

Well of course, Kazuya would get his chance to simp on Mizuhara, even something as simple as a social media account, which going by her rental girlfriend status, is not allowed to interact on a private basis. That said, last episode's hangover is really quite bad, and the after-effects are showing so much that's just better not knowing anything.

It's back to the karaoke work with Ruka and the continuation of their conversation from 2 episodes ago...man, does Ruka want to flame unnecessary fuel further. This is exasperated by Kazuya's ex Mami showing up, and in this case, Ruka is the 3rd party that doesn't know the full story that still has jealousy that Kazuya is paying special attention to some other girl than her...until she prys deeply into it, eventually revealing her geddup with him.

The "Hurricane Ruka" vs. the "Most Evil Ex Mami", and I must say that this is ONE FEISTY HEATY TRASH battle of feeling ready to be burst that doesn't help thanks to Ruka's heart condition, and that literally hemorrhaging trash onto Mami subjecting her ruthless state. Looks like settling for 3rd place ain't enough, and Kazuya is already in deep shit.

What a windfall that is, that plus the bag that she once suspected was Ruka's (that was in fact Mizuhara's by coincidence) during Mami's commute, and this little witch sure hasn't changed her spots enough to keep on stalking Kazuya's close contacts...starting with his family.

Whatever it is, this mess drops bombshells deeper than the crust has ever been.

I actually feel bad for once for Kazuya, this is why:

1. he is waking up in such an terrible state because he had an hangover

2. Mami is being an total irritation towards him

3. Kazuya is trying to bring down the tension but with failing constantly, because Ruka is going full out on Mami

Kazuya is still an irritating mc but it seems like he has a lot on his plate in this episode, perhaps in the future ep's Mami is taking over the irritating role but lets see how it turns out first.

I hope that Sumi makes an appearance in the future episodes

Ah yes one of mankind's greatest enemy the hangover. The private memo warning was pretty fun. Chizuru as ever is so thoughtful. Ruka's like a cat slowly cornering her prey. Funny how the tables turned so suddenly. Curious to go to a karaoke to do assignments though but I guess the food and the free drinks are worth it. Mami's entry really fired Ruka up huh. Facing Mami head on sure was gutsy. But looks like Ruka's passionate display only ended up making Mami return to her obsession with Kazu.

Nah fam, at least Goto-san isn't a psychopathic stalker. If Mami were a real person, she'd need to be on meds and going to therapy and Kazuya should have taken out a restraining order on her.

The unstoppable force Ruka finally meets the immovable object Mami. A clash between two beings of immense power. Each having a death grip on Kazuya in their own ways. It was only a matter of time before these two hellions crossed paths. Ruka still trying to get Kazuya to admit she's his girlfriend, something we know he won't ever do cause he still loves Chizuru. Mami fishing around to see how Ruka and Kazuya are connected did cause some funny moments. Kazuya sending subconscious message to Ruka about not revealing too much but of course Ruka couldn't help blurting out that's she's his girlfriend. Such a chaotic scene with Mami going full dark mode and Ruka not being able to shut up. Kazuya fidgeting and squirming through the whole thing did actually make it funny to watch. Like a gnarly car crash in slow motion the shock of it all was entertaining. Mami going after Kazuya family however isn't so fun.

Only took 7 weeks but finally a GOOD episode. In fact it’s probably the best I can recall. A Mami AND Ruka episode?? Turn me tf up, been waiting on two best girls to meet for so long. Mami v Ruka was perfect.Ruka roasting Mami had me dying.

Mami and Chizuru’s awkward train ride was hilarious as well. Yandere mami is here and I’m loving it.

Dude is a sad excuse for a person. He has no redeeming qualitues what so ever and just spends his time thinking about how hes single (despite having Ruka falling for him) , having horny thoughts about the girls and wishing he could be with Mizuhara. His entire personality is exactly that. Also, the dude is down bad horrendous

I'd say dudes that think they're god's gift to women and play around with their feelings are the ones that deserve horrible things that happen since you know, they actually hurt people. Kazuya's only hurting himself.

But thats exactly what hes doing. He may bot see himself as Gods gift to women, but his entire life since s1 has big one big lie. He told his family and friends he is dating Mizuhara with out her concent, dude agreed to date Ruka only to push her aside and leave her a second option basically. If thats not bad enough remeber that one ep in s1 were he literally stalked Mizuhara for half a day because he was jealous, thats a crime lol. The only decent thing he has done was save Mizuhara from drowning in s1.

Also I really like the shots in the ED, but it's super ironic and pretty much bs since none of them are actually close to each other; and yet we have them having barbecues and chilling on the beach lol. But hey it's nice to dream isn't it

Seeing Ruka stand up to Mami was the best part of the episode, she had way more balls that Kazuya who was trying to cover it up. It seems that Mami has found out that Chizuru has stayed over at Kazuya's place after seeing her bag.

Mami seems like she could single-handedly solve at least half of the cold cases out there with how she picks up and remembers the smallest details lol.

This episode definitely reminded me why I hate Mami so much. She's going out of her way to ruin Kazuya's life it seems (though, Kazuya has provided her with way too much to work with).

I felt bad for Ruka this episode, her and Sumi seem like the only ones who genuinely care about him (Ruka sometimes too much though).

I used to think Chizuru was best girl in this show, but now it's tied between Sumi and Ruka, though Sumi probably just barely edges Ruka out.

Mami is menacingly following Kazuya's family on social media. Honestly that's really bad, she'll get a better idea of where and what Kazuya does depending on how much his family tweets.

As annoying as Ruka is, she got the obvious point that Mami is still obsessed over Kazuya. Like going to his workplace to mess with him, just screw off.

I think Ruka was the voice of most people watching the show lol, that was an awesome scene where she claimed ownership of Kazuya and told off Mami. I’m not a Mami hater but it was awesome indeed lol, and Ruka is really making a stride for best girl here, I really respect the move on her part.

But it looks like behind the scene Mami is piecing things together thanks to her noticing a detail like what Mizuhara’s purse looks like, I also liked the bit of self reflection where she was wondering why she even cares, I’m interested in knowing why but it’s probably along the line of still being hung up on Kazuya lol, and witnessing just how many girls he’s gotten with since her.

Also did Mami have a theme song when she first appeared? That was cool lol.
