| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well, Natsuo and Rui got guts. They even have the confidence to talk to Hina and her partner about their relationship without holding back much. But then again, I kinda expected this with the amount of drama in the show now. That embrace though. Bet Hina won't forget that. On the other hand, the show is also focusing on Natsuo and Rui's own relationship which shares some tense moments. Also got to see some of Natsuo's past. |
 |
| It was okay. Pretty boring tbh, although I'm glad that the progression and pacing is still solid. |
| The guy is tricking her. She knows it, and still there. Again. With a big smile. She will always be disgusting. |
| I know it's already episode 4, but can I just say how much I love this opening? Seriously, it's so damn good. |
   |
| Tbh.. another episode which was pretty average.. the only reason i can keep watching this anime is cause of Rui.. and DEFINITELY not cuz of Hina.. Opening was as usual great.. but the Drama was your average drama which i can watch in my own local TV shows.. and Yea.. more than Shuu.. i wanted to beat the shit out of Hina.. who even dates a married person!? and from the comments of Manga Readers.. i am going forward with more disappointments in mind.. |
| No wonder Natsuo's mother died so young, she had the motherly hairstyle of doom, it was her fate to die before her kid. I don't know why, but I'm doubting that Hina left that guy so easily. I will not be surprised if it is later revealed she's still dating him. |
 |
| Hmm that must be Momo's voice at the end. I just didn't expect her to get such a thin voice. Also I sure love the OP and ED! UkRs said: Idk as a manga reader I never thought of the story or of Hina as disappointing. Natsuo's development is also pretty solid by the latest chapters. And let me tell you, the new characters are gonna be a great addition so look forward to the rest of it ;)and from the comments of Manga Readers.. i am going forward with more disappointments in mind..

| Thought it while watching last episode too but now I just can't hold it in. Natsuo and Rui are being completely disgusting. I just can't understand how most people here think the other way. It was kinda shady already last week with thinking of some "plan to break them up" but this time... Stalking Hina for several days in a row while she's just having fun, drinking, talking with her student, even listening in on their conversation, etc... okay. But taking her phone and trying to pretend to be Hina and say about breakup... in my opinion, a person who does this to his or her close relative deserves to be beaten the crap out of. Fumiya and Natsuo are nuts if they came up with it. And I can partly understand Rui, including her being emotional and spilling water at Shuu. She's genuinely worried about her sister and thinks that this relationship makes her sad. I believe that she has enough information for that at least. But Natsuo? He knows absolutely nothing about Hina and Shuu! His only arguments are "MUH IT IS BAD", "well she was crying this one time and that one time" and maybe "uhhhh I want her for myself", that's all. No idea about how their relationship started, what terms are Shuu and his wife on (maybe they hate each other and it would be better for them to divorce?), how is Hina feeling in this relationship, how deep their feelings are, nothing. Just "this is bad, I know better" and he is ready to break the relationship of the person who is important to him. I'm not protecting Shuu, he might be a jerk lying about divorce, of course, but neither Natsuo nor Rui had no way of finding that out for certain. (The ending left me wondering though... did Hina lie? I'd understand it if she did, not wanting to make them sad and not having courage to tell them to leave her and her personal life alone.) |
| This was very cringy at one point, and in the end seems like everything resolved too easily. I wonder how long will it be for Hina to ruin everything again. |
  |
| Notice how the pasta plate had sausages shaped like dicks. |
| Don't believe the hype. |

Agreed, the whole episode was cringy tbh. In my opinion it's none of rui and natsuo's bussiness what hina does, even if she is family. It doesn't even affect their lives, she should be able to make her choises like all ppl do. |

| Hina said she dubbed the guy though I doubt that. Got to see some of Natsuo past. Its been ten years since his mother's death. Still loving the OP and ED. |

It doesn't even affect their lives, she should be able to make her choises like all ppl do. I agree with you guys. The way they've stalked Hina is lame and childish to the extreme. So she's dating a married man. Big fucking deal. It's not the first time it's happened and it certainly wont be the last. Let her make her own mistakes. Life is not as black and white as people think it is. It's more several shades of grey. In any case, Natsuo has absolutely no moral authority on this whatsoever. He banged Hina's sister for crying out loud. If you're planning on being that righteous how about telling Sensei that. Anyway, it seems that Hina herself is seeing that that relationship is going nowhere, so she's put some distance between herself and Alpha dude. |

| Goddammit! I want to punch that guy and Hina too, fucking cheater and fucking liar, it's obvious she didn't break up with him. This episode really managed to piss me off but I'd be lying if I said it wasn't entertaining, hell, the whole series is being very entertaining.... and Rui heals my soul so that's a big plus. |
| Idk how this show managed to do it, but I am somehow shipping the MC with a girl who gave her virginity to a stranger she just met, rather than the compassionate teacher who watches over him like an onee san. You did this to me Domestic Kanojo. Give me back my taste. |
| What this show does really well is make me want to watch any drama that comes for our main cast of characters, even if the awkwardness and tension can be a bit overwhelming at times. Although Natsuo let his temper get the better of him during the tense conversation, it was Rui who did the water splashing on the married guy in question. At least Natsuo ran off after Rui and comforted her afterwards in a nearby park. =) We also got an insight of Natsuo's past and what her mother looked like, too. While at her grave, Hina and Rui came along to introduce themselves to the gravestone and pay their respects to Natsuo's mother. Rui's smile in this scene was really cute and precious. =3 Well, it seems now that Hina has broken up with the guy and I just hope that she's being truthful here. Only time will tell if she is telling the truth or not, but for now, she's done the right thing, for herself and for the cheating bastard as well. Great episode overall. |

Illyricus said: No wonder Natsuo's mother died so young, she had the motherly hairstyle of doom, it was her fate to die before her kid. Exactly xD And well, we gotta believe Hina for now. Storywise it would also make more sense if she's moving on and gets more intimate with Natsuo. |

| Pretty fast-paced episode, stacked with content as well, just how I like them. Form a vague and controversial story, this adaptation really is rocking it, and I still can't find anything to complain about, the characters all seem likable so far. That confrontation scene was as intense as every other soap opera standup, I know I would have thrown a punch at that dude, and he's quite the looker as well. I feel like Hina didn't actually break up with him, but who knows. |
is it just me or the background music in this scene doesnt feel right.. |
| The way Rui and Natsuo stalked Hina-sensei was stupid and of course they failed. XD They caught them on the act when they weren't stalking her at all. The "pandemonium" was nice but I enjoyed the waitress's reaction better. She was adorable! :D So it resulted to Hina-sensei breaking up with the guy huh. For all I know it's just her trying to let Natsuo and Rui's guard down of suspecting her but she's still secretly meeting up with that guy. That Rui smile though. :) |
 |
| Meh, it was alright... can't expect too much out of this genre but hey, the animation quality was a bit off the mark today |
 |
| Good episode. I didn't expect things to be 'seemingly' 'resolved' in just one episode. I'm not entirely sure if Hina really broke up with that guy but I'll believe her for now. The guy certainly did sound like a hypocrite especially with Hina saying that he was gonna leave his wife for over half a year now. We'll see in due time I guess. I was expecting Natsuo to be the one to last out, didn't expect it to be Rui. Rui and Natsuo's embrace was nice. :) The Natsuo flashback was sad. :( Let's see where this goes from here. |
 |
| turns out both of the adulterers are trash, i feel i can see where its going bc of the show's title but i dont just buy Hina Marie has been the star of this episode, he knows how to hustle. girl employee was a delight too the mom flashback hit hard...and of course she got THAT hair |
| So far it would be a 2/5 show for me. Okay, perhaps it isn't that bad, but I think they're treating some interesting topics very poorly, the characterization somehow feels off and everything is just too convenient. It's supposed to be a drama I guess, but is not working quite well. Also, is just me or the voice acting of Hina is strange and robotic? |

| That's it? I hope we see the married lover again otherwise it seems like a pretty weak arc. I imagine we will. |
| Was glad to see Rui throw water in the guy's face. Cheating on his wife for half a year, terrible human being. Hina's in the same club. She left him though, so maybe she'll get better. Can't tell if MC cares more about Hina's moral wrong or his love for her so I'm not much of a fan of him either |
| I could agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong. |
| Not only are Natsuo and Rui determined enough to stalk Hina, but they even directly face Hina's boyfriend after their coincidental awkward meeting! Both of them did great with Natsuo pressuring Shuu and topped with Rui wetting Shuu's face with that glass of water. After all, the impression that I got from Shuu is that he's a womanizer. I can't take Rui cry very seriously because of the BGM. It would definitely be more impactful to me if the BGM is not that relaxed kind of cheerful music. I don't know why it's used there but it's not appropriately used. Nice little flashback of little Natsuo with his mother and his code of not to cry so that his mother won't be sad. I'm eager to see how this will play out in later episodes. Hina broke up with Shuu?! Nope. I don't buy that. That's some bullshit right there IMO! Hina won't just let go of the man who is her first lover and especially because of how 'he held her' such as when he did so last night. |

| this episode was boring |
 |
| Uhh...couldn't they check the messages first? Not good. DELETE THAT CALL LOG! DON'T LET HINA SEE IT! Seriously, you two are going to get yourselves caught up in a lot of trouble... Holy crap this is convenient af... NATSUO YOU IDIOT!!!!! Well Marie has the right idea. LET THEM FIGHT! Who started it? Based on the clues from the previous episodes, I'm pretty sure that Hina was the one who initiated it. She didn't know that Shuu was married, but when she did, that's when she became conflicted. Her shouting "Enough!" in a previous episode most likely means that despite Shuu liking Hina, Hina does not want to continue the relationship any longer because that would cause even more conflict. Aaaand...I was wrong... Shut up Natsuo. Let's get the whole story first... Well that was anti-climactic. Hina breaks up with Shuu since he was being so indecisive with his wife. But now Hina is aware of Natsuo's feelings towards her. Alright then, let the incest commence! |
 |
| Good god the awkwardness is killing me. It's pretty amazing writing. Loving it. Does anyone else absolutely love the dad? What a hero he is, something about him just makes him lovable. Actually, the side characters in this series are all really good, it's very well put together. Everyone is so chill about the remarriage as well, it's pretty mature and I like that. I almost had the feeling that the married guy's wife was in a coma or deathly ill, and once they got the whole story, they'd feel more sympathy for him. Well I guess we'll find out soon enough. ShadowZ_AnimeZ said: Hina broke up with Shuu?! Nope. I don't buy that. That's some bullshit right there IMO! Hina won't just let go of the man who is her first lover and especially because of how 'he held her' such as when he did so last night. Well obviously, I'd be surprised if anyone believed that they actually broke up. Never know though, it might start to shift towards focusing on the relationship between Natsuo and the two sisters. |
