This episode was really trying to connect Runa with Akane. Due to their conflicting personalities, it was tough but the episode was able to express is emotions really well.

Runa seems like the type who isn't able to express herself very well. Props to the VA for bringing their characters alive so well. Now that I think about it, Runa has time to develop and she can be likable.

Yeah, that was kinda expected from how the things ended the last week, not wanted to be a friend with our heroine at all, it was all a sham. But i guess good on them, that they made it work in the end.

Her older brother is still a super creep tho.

Well adjusting the DPI is one thing thats always boring. Wow Runa's prank really was a cunning one. Her gamer friend though really was unerving. Runa really cares a lot about the bond between her and the old guard of friends huh. Whiel the bonds that can be forged between gamers can be strong it still doesn't excuse her for pulling such a dangerous prank. Eita sure was scary when he's angry. Ad hoc as it was Akane's plan to clear the area really was well played. Still i was impressed that Akane was able to deal with the matter so calmly.

Runa did something very bad setting Akane up with that complete stranger. Totally abandoning Akane for their meet up and sent some random dude who's obsessed with Rurihime. Runa feeling almost threatened by Akane joining their friend group. Very sad when Runa was looking through her pictures and seeing all the memories the four of them had together. Now someone new like Akane is trying to join and from Runa perspective she doesn't understand why. Its tough to accept change especially when you think everything is perfect as it is. Runa is lucky that Akane is a nice girl and very understanding. Because this whole situation could've gone very wrong for her if Runa had sent someone dangerous to meet her. I mean a Rurihime obsessed fanboy was already bad enough, barging into the women's restroom. Mr Kamota is such a delight, him being hysterical when thinking Akane was in danger was so cute. He's a great the younger characters can rely on. Akane and Runa hashing things out was very needed. I'm glad Akane could see the full picture of what happened and still want to be friends with Runa. I hope that Runa Dan accept Akane into their friend group.

Sticking to the original plan, Akane meeting Eita's sister Runa while Yamada goes with Eita, it's clear that Akane was taken for a ride with Runa trying her best to give as many excuses to lay her off as much as possible, as sitch with a rando stranger meeting her and going on babbling to no end. In truth, said girl was at home studying with Yamada coming in to tutor her, and instinctly he knows, just that he doesn't want to say it out loud. It got so bad to the point of the rando player stalking her to the ladies' toilet and being overly obssessed about Rurihime.

Yamada knowing the severity of the matter, and together with Eita, pursues Akane...with Mr. Kamota coming in for help just at the right time. Runa, obviously salty that a newcomer like Akane is infiltrating their daily life, she just wants to keep the status quo, and Eita knows it by heart that Akane wanted to be her friend. Though luckily she came out unscathed, and the truth being that Akane got hurt somehow because the rando stranger was trying to give her pain relievers that she goes shocked and hurt her shin on the toilet bowl, this has been a rather hectic day for her. Yamada has enough reasons to be of concern: Runa, which her unapologetic nature beckons her to turn away from Akane, though getting clumsily injured again, she really deserves her brother's lecture after pulling the dangerous prank. To that extent, Akane faking her stomachache so that she can drive both Yamada, Eita, Mr. Kamota and the rano stranger off to have a 1-to-1 talk with Runa...about games.

Runa thinking that she was going to have a scolding from Akane, and the latter dispels her by engaging on the FOS conversation. And despite what Runa handed this strange but dangerous situation to her, ultimately, Akane's goal has always been to get to know her better, and allow herself into their friendship circle, in-game, and in real life. Leaving the lecture to Eita, Akane has managed to de-escalate the situation, and let Yamada see a new light in her.

This episode flew by fast, which is a good thing. Hopefully you've learned your lesson, Runa.

Well that was a really fucked up and potentially dangerous thing that Runa did. Don’t even think “prank” is a good name for it.

That dude could’ve been a murderer or rapist or anything. Luckily Yamada and Eita caught on to it and nipped in the bud. Runa clearly has her own insecurities and self worth issues that led to all of that. Explains why she has no IRL friends too. but looks like she’s realised the error of her ways and accepted Akane into her circle so we move on.

Akane looked especially beautiful today and it seems even Yamada took notice of it at the end of the episode.

would you look at that? A Happy End... 
So much in this episode was played for laughs that it underminded the seriousness of the situation. I have not forgiven what Runa did, this was messed up. 
But I was really glad that Yamada saw right away through her scheme and jumped into action.

Honestly kinda unnecessary character that exists for the unnecessary drama BUT she also works for Yamada to see Akane in new lights, so that's cool. Jealousy working completely against her favor lol at least she'll be cool now. And the boys in this guild are sooo nice, awn.

That 3D moment at 19:45 was weird and came out of nowhere. Also, Akane is way too nice-forgiving such nasty "pranks." I wish to be mature enough to be able to act like her someday, though it probably isn't always the best course of action.

If there isn't some kind of ongoing punishment for Runa, I don't think that she'll be a salvageable character. Karma Houdinis utterly kill shows for me. (I'm looking at you, Dawn of the Witch)

That guy Luna used to trick Akane was a serious creep and he was pretty delusional luckily nothing happened.
Luna on the other hand got a valuable lesson this episode one she really needed, she is way to secluded and living in her own world to much to me it seems she didn't realise what she was putting Akane trough.
Akane on the other hand could have handled the situation with that guy better.
She did handle the situation with Luna perfectly tho.

YES! That's the voice I couldn't place... I was like "he sounds so familiar, who is it?" and went to look and they didn't have it listed, but now that you pointed it out, it's definitely the same voice actor as Kalego Sensei from Marimashita Iruma Kun.

im glad all the guys actually held runa accountable for what she did to akane instead of just letting it go. hopefully runa will eventually come around, because even though i don't like her right now, i bet she could end up being a nice person and a good friend to akane.

seems like maybe yamada is starting to see akane from a new perspective. im so excited for the romance to actually pick up more in future episodes.

also side note but eita really is so pretty. like yamada is attractive, but so is eita

Yep they had to hold Runa accountable for what she did. That was extremely dangerous for Akane. If this was a more serious anime she could have died and then Runa would have been the accomplice in murder. Lesson to all the ladies (and men) out there. Dont meet people you dont know for the first time alone. Always bring somebody you trust with you.

yeah i super agree. there are some people that are just really dense so i guess as long as the members can just say "back off" but let it slide this time it might be best. still, i'm pretty sure japan is super duper gonna arrest your butt for entering a ladies room and forcefully opening a stall door.

Ew, what a creeper XD Looking forward to the blossoming friendship between Akane and Runa.

The talk about karma Houdini's is a bit much, she's just an ignorant kid with walls up, not a villain who needs to be punished lol. It's good that they're not just sweeping it under the table though.

Yamada seemed like off, is he starting to realize how cool Akane is ? Well it seems that something is cooking between the two. That creep went into women's bathroom like the hell? His grandma didn't teach him good manners although I found it weirdly funny and out of place, His face is so punchable tho xd.

Gosh if anything had happened to Akane, or someone more creepy came along and hurt Akane...Runa wouldn't live it down!

Gosh my man WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN THE WOMENS TOILET?! He could have gotten some other woman to go in and ask for Akane...

Nice ending though, there was that weird scene cut when Akane is in the toilet and there's a hand reaching out and I thought it was going for her not the doorbell lol

I don't know to what extent she would forgive something like what Runa did to Akane, she was lucky she isn't spiteful or something like that.

At least they didn't downplay the issue, it's very dangerous to meet weird people on the internet in real life, especially for women, I like that they kept it as something bad and not just a prank.

For the rest of the episode everything is fine, I really don't think there is anything else to highlight despite all that drama.

Runa is such a bitch. I was fully expecting her to kick Akane in the shin after Akane fell to the floor lol I'm glad Akane made everyone leave except Runa and made her feel ashamed by being nice to her, I know it wasn't intentional but still. Yamada realizes his feelings for Akane!! I can just feel it in my bones. I'm glad everyone took charge and went to look for her!! Meeting fans irl is not the smartest thing to do

That was hell of a stunt Runa pulled, thankfully that glasses lad wasn’t as dangerous as he seemed but idk man, I didn’t feel much for her seeing her cry at the end thanks to Akane’s too good for this world kindness lol. I know she’s a middle schooler and you do stupid shit when you’re young but that only kinda softens the blow for me, I don’t think she deserved forgiveness right at that moment, maybe down the line when she changes for the better but at that moment I would be pissed with her lol.

That being said tho I did really like the way Akane handled the situation despite having the right to be pissed, I’m sure Runa knows she truly fucked up and I look forward to seeing her hopefully repay Akane. Also Mr. Kamota was pretty great this episode with his worrying like Akane was his own kid lol, I hope he doesn’t normally drive that way tho.

Akane for sure hadn't had the best day, first she gets stood up by Runa because they were supposed to meet but instead some guy is sitting there then she gets hurt in the restroom and gets hurt again at the table. Runa wanted Yamada for herself but Yamada saw right through it. That was some weird guy also.

Runa has difficulties making friends it seems, but hey at least she has 300 online friends lmao. Akane tries her best to get closer towards Runa and Runa seems to accept it as she was apologetic and started crying. Runa will have time to make herself likeable towards other people, that way she can also start making friends.
