Oh Mitsuya..at least she tried. I mean, deep down, she just wants to be with Tateishi but her latest attempt to seduce him was priceless.

On the work front, she tried to improve sales so I respect that she wants to prove herself. Hayakawa is also entertainment gold material in this episode. She needs more screen time.

I'm sorry, BUT WHAT THE FUCKL WAS THAT SOFT CORE HENTAI SCENE??? A fucking BJ???? xDDDDDDDDD

But yeah, I'm liking the fact that they are developing the other couples, and that it's hinting that we're not just gonna be stuck with the same couple the whole show.

Jesus though, I'm still dumbfounded over that scene. I didn't expect for them to to show as much as they did lmao. Peak episode.

Yeah, it actually sucks when you want some alone time for yourself and then boom, someone you know barges in. I mean Somei guy actually didn’t barge in, but hey, that feeling of letting them be left alone was actually mutual. Btw, if there’s anything this series has done decently enough, it’s people acting like how people should in certain situations, except when the main girl acts brash towards Tateishi, just for the sake of it lol.

Things might get depressing over stuff related to work, or they might as well, if someone talks nicely about your boyfriend on your face and you can’t take pride, because the stuff needs to be hidden, but hey, spending sweet little steamy time together can get you over any kind of depression… they went at it the whole night too lol, so yeah, happy times indeed, for both of them.

So Yui's cake seems to be not selling well, actually it does not sells at all at first. I said it once already, that her cake can be appreciated only by the true gourmet enthusiasts like Tateishi ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).

Also, secondary couple is here ? I mean those two are made for each other, even more than the main duo.

This is the couple that we really need, no more shyness or timidness. Just straightforward to do the thing that they should do.

Mitsuya is really trying her best both with Tateishi and her new product I really hope her sweets do eventually sell well. Really wasn't expecting essentially a soft core sex scene at the end though.

Yui being uncertain for most of the episode first about her product and than her relationship things worked out in both cases tho.
Till now their relationship has been shown to be pretty innocent but now the episode almost turned r-rated at some point.
Guess their relationship is going well.

As if Masagu giving Yui the smug sideeye after making his power play wasn't smooth enough of a move, it's even masked by the cover of taunting his workplace "arch-rival" perfectly. Dude really earned his crown with that.

Also, props to whoever was in charge of the sound direction for Yui's desk slam. That genuinely startled me.

"It's hot in here"👍

Yui has a bit childish streak here but Masugu was really assuring to her. Such a nice couple.
Wholesome & hot

Yui is so beautiful...

10/10 waifu

That taunt of Masugu at the end was brilliant.

Can we take a moment to appreciate how awesome it is to see a healthy adult sexual relationship in an anime? Like this is genuinely the first anime I’ve watched where it feels like two actual adults. No exaggerated reactions, no over the top jokes, just two regular ass office workers trying to stay on top of work.. and each other. They got their cute wholesome moments, but also not afraid to be intimate. Love it.

And don’t get me started on how cute it was that he refused to make a move on Yui before hearing what was on her mind. He knew she was overcompensating and upset over something, so he hears her out and assures her that she’s the only one for him. Fucking love that. Notice Yui doesn’t get all scared and start running away, she admits she’s insecure and then goes in for the kill with the special lingerie!

Looks like he had Yui worn out that next day at work because she was seeing stars in that elevator lmaooo. Respect for telling the girls he has a girlfriend and enjoys spending his off days with her! Such a cute episode.

Somei and Hayakawa might give these two a run for their money though.. I’m rooting for you Hayakawa! You can beat the drunk allegations lmao. I’ll never get how Crunchyroll didn’t pick this show up but picks up 1000 seasonal isekai slop shows or even Medakawa.

Just look at her trying.


Also I sense a second love blossoming. Masagu and the manager. Although I thought it would be with the girl with glasses.

Yui waiting in a store to see her product being sold is funny. I think most people who make products like this can relate. But working so hard for something only to see it not pay off really hurts. Sadly working hard doesn't always mean you'll get the appropriate reward. However, I think Yui's product was eventually successful in this case.

Lmao. Somei and Hayakawa's interactions are hilarious. I'd love to see them interact more and maybe eventually develop into a relationship. Would be kinda cool to see cause I think Hayakawa is much older than Somei. Tho in this kinda environment, it probably doesn't matter much.

Hoo boy. Definitely wasn't expecting another seggs scene in this episode. It was so wholesome. Wish more anime did this kinda thing.

This episode was so freaking good. It kills me a bit that more people don't talk about this anime.

the soft core sex scene caught me off guard, so much so that I was laughing out of surprise. Truth be told they kept it tasteful and despite the scene being sexual it wasn't degenerate ecchi stuff, so props to them honestly. I just didn't expect bilibili to go forward with something like this given that they refused to animate a kiss scene in giji harem until like the last few eps. I like this anime more and more with each episode

This whole episode is a great example of the more mature, adult romance and vibe this series has to offer. Starting off with Yui being worried about the product she developed not selling. I think that her job is one of the more interesting I've seen in an anime. You usually get the generic office worker inputting data, but she develops products to sell to the public and I find it pretty interesting.

The real star of the show this week was the second half with their love scene. It was definitely going to come up at some point that there were others interested in either Yui or Masagu. There was no cringe, contrived nonsense or drama like you would see in a highschool romance. Instead they straight up talk to each other about it, and Yui reinforces her commitment to Masagu by being sexy and loving. My boy Masagu taking his time with Yui by kissing her all over was great. He had some balls at the end to openly admit he has a girlfriend. Hope that doesn't come back to bite him later on.

I was surprised how similar Hayakawa and Somei are when it comes to wanting their space. Like Somei, I thought Hayakawa was an outgoing drunk, but she only acts that way because it's part of her job. I like the potential couple they could become.

Speaking of good couples, Tateishi and Mitsuya are definitely hotter than usual in this episode. Tateishi is quite the gentleman, who knows how to control his impulses when he sees that his girl isn't at ease. That respect can lead to rewards worthy of good vanilla Hentai. This is what I love about the series: they are not afraid to show that in a healthy relationship like theirs, intimacy goes beyond kissing and cuddling. They also portray the happy moments, the sad ones and even the little disagreements, showing that not everything is perfect.

The pace was a little bit rough. It didn't flow smoothly. Still liked all the different parts. The intimacy part took me by surprise lol. Thinking "oh we're going there? Still going?? Still going???". It's refreshing seeing that in an adult romance show.

@siraqOrNoraq In the first episode, she had stayed over at his apartment and we have seen scenes of them doing morning routines together. I'd say the assumption is that they do it regularly. This episode was different because she was really emotional and uncertain and wanted to make a special effort to be sexy to reassure herself and we got to see all the steamy foreplay.

This show continues to be so refreshing; seeing two adults in an adult relationship without a lot of the usual tropes that this concept usually falls into is so nice!

Loved seeing Masugu immediately being super clear that he wants to support Yui through her insecurity issues, and Yui immediately taking him up on that and being honest about her feelings. I know so many other shows (even those with adult relationships) that would have ended the episode around there, and dragged us into a 2-3 episode arc, before we finally got the resolution we did here. That's so great!

And that steamy scene was *chef's kiss*, I was not expecting us to get all of that but I'm so glad we did~
Yui is so gorgeous, hot, cute, and wholesome; she really is best girl! ♡

Also is that my fave sub-couple getting just a little closer together? Shizuno, I believe in you! I need to see her with Keisuke please.





I'm okay now... At least... I want to be able to say that.

1. Introducing new (pairing) challenger....
2. This is why seinen adult cast romcom is so much better. If we're going with high school romcom, some of the "conflicts" here may last for 2-3 EPs, what with all the teenage wishy-washy phase. But since they're all adults, they can just speak it all out whenever there's a problem, hence resolving it in even less than an EP.

Yui really turned up the heat for this episode huh? She needs to relieve a lot of those stress she's had because of the new product launch. It's refreshing to see a woman who is usually demure take the the lead unexpectedly, it's always a welcome surprise.

Still the most realistic romcom of the season and all the better for it.
(And no, not just saying that as the competition is spearheaded by a couple of highschoolers forced into marriage by their grandparents or the guy ignoring a girl so he can take over a cat temple one day).

Good episode with Yui momentarily feeling insecure for both her product not initially selling well and later on when she overheard female coworkers praising her boyfriend a bit too much. Good thing that Tateishi was there for her and comforted her to make her feel better which she returned the favor by them having an intimate moment.

Oh, more implicit sex. People claiming this to be the best adult romance show ever just because of that are gonna show up again smh.

OK episode, I guess. Not sure why I couldn't connect with Mitsuya's struggles but Tateishi acting mature for the entirety of the episode was particularly pleasant.
