And Hiro is sly and conniving >:( Hiro is "sly and conniving" for trying to help someone confess, while Erika directly getting in the way between Nagi and Hiro going on the test of courage together is perfectly fine? K. Erika is a dumbass and her scene was played for laughs. She can't be sly even if she tried Irrelevant. It's still a double standard. All Hiro is doing is helping another guy confess. Meanwhile Erika knows full well that Nagi likes Hiro and is getting in his way anyway. |

K. Nagi is her fiance. Erika is the main heroine of the show. Hiro is in the way. She knew they're engaged, lived together in the same house, and later loved each other mutually. Hiro never back down. And Erika is her best friend. What sort of a person wants to steal her best friend's fiance? Yes, in the manga she knew all of these, but still not stop trying to steal Nagi from Erika. |

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Hiro trying to get together with Nagi when both parties involved are in agreement that they don't want to get married. And in the manga, Erika knew that Nagi likes Hiro, and that Hiro also has feelings for Nagi. She knew that LONG before Hiro ever knew that Erika liked him. Erika didn't make any moves until long after she was aware that their feelings were mutual. So by your own reasoning, Erika was the one who developed feelings for her best friend's crush, and then tried to steal him anyway, whereas Hiro was the one who proverbially "had dibs" by letting Erika know she liked him. So if someone trying to get with Nagi is "stealing" him from another girl, then you have to acknowledge that Erika tried to "steal" him from the girl who first liked him, because the title of "fiance" was something decided by their parents and does not in and of itself confer any intrinsic perception of loyalty. Nagi is not bound to be loyal to a relationship he doesn't want, nor does it give Erika any more of a "claim" to him than any other girl; the bad actor then is the one who first tries to make a move on the person they know their best friend likes, in this case being Erika. |

She can't "steal" her own fiance from someone. |

He's a human being who can make his own decisions, including about who he wants to be with. So yes, it DOES matter whether or not they like it. You're acting like Erika being Nagi's fiance on paper (when he is explicitly not onboard with this) means he somehow is beholden to her, like he doesn't have a say- he does. Hence why Hiro putting the moves on Nagi is okay, because she is aware that the relationship between him and his "fiance" is not one that they want to be in- and thus not one deserving any respect, since it was foist upon them. Until Nagi and Erika make it clear that they are officially in a relationship because they want to be, not because their parents want them to be, there is nothing wrong with Hiro or anyone else trying to get together with Nagi if they want. |

Study camp. Nagi, Erika and Hiro went camping, but without Sachi, who got sick. And they were joined by Shion. And while Shion and Erika went shopping, Nagi stayed with Hiro. Shion tried to propose to Erika, but he couldn't. And Nagi told her that he had already proposed, but Hiro put him on hold. Well, it's time for the test of courage. They were planning to go in pairs, and Erika asked Nagi...hmm, she wanted to tell him something. and Shion touched Hiro, he was trying to get information for Nagi but he couldn't, and Hiro realized that he tried to propose to Erika and he was going to help him. Let's see what happens. |

LOL at the people who were arguing who's the bigger bitch between Erika and Hiro. I love Hiro but Erika is the best girl in the anime. However, that doesn't mean I hate Hiro for making a drama. The drama is enjoyable and fun. None of those two, and even Sachi included, is as annoying as other anime girl, for example, Nagatoro. They're more like Yukino, Yui and Iroha trying to win Hachiman's heart. Even though, I love Yui the best, doesn't mean I have to hate Yukino and Iroha... |

It's not that I hate Hiro for wanting to win the guy. It's just that she's a horrible character. The thing is... in other similar manga/anime, most girls are adorable and I don't hate any of them, with only a few exception, that are the people with two faces, the mask wearing bitch pretending to be a good girl. For the example, I like Chitoge, but Onodera didn't annoy me at all. She's just a pure heart innocent girl. Now if you rewrite Onodera a bit and give her the Hiro personality... like she's still Onodera the good and polite girl, but now is a bitch in the inside and keeps plotting selfish stuff, trying to seduce the MC, making weird demands and conditions. I'll hate that version of Onodera, too. |

Shion dude is good comic relief, but it's like he'll be in an episode and then there won't even be a mention of him for the next ten episodes because yeah that's just how this series works. |

Well the annoying/quirky dude is now getting more screen time some people argue he's bad either good for the story I just say he brings in the energy from Nagi's passive state while studying so he doesn't make it boring just loud Who's making subs no one uses "poggers" unironically like nahhh, So if nothing progresses much or does anything except for Erika talking with Nagi in the woods I won't expect much from now on. |

The author really intends to ruin every outings in this anime huh? Yes I know he's related to someone but just abruptly including a mob character who the author didn't even develop just feels shitty. Skipped. |

So Asuma not only weasels his way into a study group but he plans on confessing to Erica, who is straight up out of his league, during it, thereby making the whole weekend awkward. Does that dude not have a brain in his head? |

After the whole Sachi special episode for some of the previous episode, the time has come to tone her down a bit by making her sick with the fever while the huge event coming up. Hell yeah way to go, anime, way to go! Now that you mentioned its already weird enough having Shion suddenly barge in to Nagi harem party, the study camp cliche abrupt idea is just a cherry on top of a dry cake, so i don't mind him at all. But care concern truly at how they portray Hiro character now by dealing another 'secret' among Nagi surrounding, now its Shion. She's like setting up a high bar to Nagi before coming up decision to put him into a yes, and dislike every hurdle that block Nagi's development to reach the bar, which may be the reason behind Hiro action. But as always its a cheap attempt, and i also don't know if its good having those disadvantage as well. In short, pretty sure there is no study at those camp... |
