The mysterious Kamota-san... He had no role in this episode, yet we had repeated scenes of him working in his strawberry farm. Is this foreshadowing? Does he end up playing the crucial part?

This anime is becoming a favorite of mine. The animation, and the use of background music, is fantastic. The comedy is top shelf. In this episode we see more clearly than ever the dance between our two main characters, where Yamada-kun is level 999 in games, but Akane is level 999 IRL. If she can help him to improve in the game of love, we may end up with a beautiful relationship.

Mission failed successfully.

I bet the real reason Yamada ran was because he didn't want her to see him blush.

And nice bald guy propaganda. :D

First of all I don't like Runa at all. But Runa saves Akane by saying that her bra is in front of yamda and saves Akani from being embarrassed.. So now I like Runa❤❤❤❤

There's Akane who had a hard time moving on from her ex, there's Momo who is desperate to have a boyfriend and get married, and there's Runa who has a hard time socializing and making friends because she's used to being treated like a princess... well, the most common problems of most girls, I guess.

But of course the highlight of this episode is Yamada who... seems to be misbehaving because he's being stared face to face by Akane~ hahaha, is he in love? I hope so. Does anyone know what chapter this episode adapted? I want to try reading about what happened after that.

More than anything, I think I'll keep saying this... I really like Eita. Especially with his bangs tied in that fountain style :'3 and how he was so lively even when calling Yamada at night... and when he and Runa tried to be cupid aka matchmaker for Akane and Yamada ♡♡♡ that kyururu was so cute. Anyway I wish him a lot of luck for college because "even apes can understand macroeconomics", lol.

3 things surprised me in this episode.
1) Runa going from acting jealous to trying to be match maker.
2) Yamada actually having a moment of embarrassment over Kinoshita
3) The episode actually feeling WAY too short.

I like how for Yamada, the hottest thing a person can do is take some initiative in a video game. I'm happy that Runa and Akane are friends now. I feel sorry for Momo lol. Also, Akane eating the toast like VHS tape >,<

So last episode I thought Runa would be just the cliché annoying rival but now I must apologize to her lol The author took the best approach to the whole thing making her actually become friends with Akane. I love their chemistry together already and this was one of the best episodes of the anime yet imo.

It's nice seeing that Runa has toned down a lot more and is pretty pure in front of Akane now, even being okay with how close Akane is with Yamada to the point of taking a pic of them and sending it to her brother
Perhaps Yamada wasn't feeling awkward with women but it's more just, he's realizing how he feels about Akane and is too shy to show it 👀

Interesting that this episode’s narrative is from Runa, also she’s a lot more likeable than before, her interactions with Alene is both funny and cute.

Runa's so hyper this episode huh...
i bet Yamada quickly left to get some fixing equipment for the broken laptop of Akane but i think part of the reason is because Yamada got a boner and need to deal with it quickly because he isn't used to experience a girl of his same age went face to face close to each other! hahah LOLZ
5/5.

And THIS was when I sort of turned around on Runa. Something about her insane attempt to ship these two using the power of Anime Tropes, and it kinda working, worked on me. It’s even funnier animated.

I'm loving Runa even more!
Yes, she is so sweet now compared to the previous episodes. This side of her is more wonderful.
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

I don't know why but I could relate with Momoko's little speech so much... (Poor her, nobody listened to her serious talk) :D. Undtil she got all crazy about it...

A broken computer is really awful :s. I understand Akane's "pain" :s

I simply love how Eita is shipping Yamada and Akane now ^^. And even Runa is supporting them. It's really cute to see her becoming friends with Akane. All because Akane gave her a chance ♥. Although she took it a little too far once again. This girl only knows all the extremes (and she read too many mangas).

That moment between Yamada and Akane *-*. I don't think Yamada disliked it. Maybe just a feeling...

Kamota being the last thing we see because he didn't have much screentime in this episode is everything I've never asked for but still love. His character really adds to this anime :) <3

This was a really cute episode! ♥️ Nice to see this side of Runa, and way more fun to see them becoming friends than the rivalry in the previous episodes.

Also, relatable hair struggles xD

Ah now I know why I disliked and now liked Runa, she reminds me soooo much of Tsubasa Shibahime from Kare Kano, that old Anime 1998-1999.

I remember hating Tsubasa a lot but she ended up being my favorite character and her story arc really drew me in. I think I am having the same reaction to Runa now. I can tell that her classmates really like her, especially the girls, that one girl even said goodbye to her. I wonder if she'll have a similar story arc to Tsubasa from Kare Kano. Yes, I am fully aware they are completely different series and the story is nothing alike but for some reason Both Tsubasa and Runa give me similar vibes.

This show has been tumbling for the past 2 episodes by trying to make Runa likeable. She's not. She is a terrible person and it's annoying why they're wasting so much time on her. Might have to drop the show if she is going to be a recurring character.

Looks like Yamada might be starting to make some progress. Good.

Also, if she has a laptop that literally explodes in smoke in this day and age, then she definitely needs to get a new laptop ASAP.

Poor Runa has been getting bullied at school. I will say I'm starting to like her now that she changed her ways. Still not cool of her to pull the previous stunt tho. At least she's getting better. The fact that even Runa is cheering and hoping Akane and Yamada date is hilarious. She even sent pictures to her brother lol I did hate how this episode ended!! I wish we got to see Yamada blush. How disappointing.

Just when I thought I would get a Momo focused episode, they went away from that idea totally. Like there needs to be one until the end of this season, she's just too good to ignore. Quoting her: "What a waste of good looks". Still, this episode, in my opinion, forged Runas character and backstory very well, no additions needed. Even though she didn't realise it, her helping hand was perfect, especially the push. Let's see how Yamada will react.

I see, trying to justify Runa's awful behavior with some backstory and relationship mending. Well it was certainly better than last episode, but I'm not fully convinced yet. But it's a start. At least we seem to be setting up Yamada seeing Akane as something more given his quick departure after that moment they shared. Looking forward to seeing how that plays out.

The social-awkwardness of all three was such a mood lmao. Also there's no anime character that's ever had a personality closer to mine than Akane.
