| Another backstory... this time around I liked it more than the Hime/Yano backstory a bit more, but man, my liking for Kanoko sinks with each passing episode, though I do have a bit more respect for Hime now, since she used her facade to stick up for someone instead of for her self-serving purposes. |
| Interesting backstory for Kanoko and Hime. I like Kanako's character more and more. :) |

| Interesting episode with the backstory of how Hime and Kanoko first met |
| Finally got Kanoko and Hime backstory. Hime loves going for social outcasts who don’t really fit in at school and making them fall in love with her lmao |
 |
| The story is fine. Expected (ofc), but fine. I was busy trying to pick up the bgm to check if Kanoko has a leitmotif or not, but I think I was wishing too much lol |
| the whole episode was the backstory of an irrelevant crazy bitch. I'd say it was the worst episode so far |
| Now we know how Kanoko and Hime-chan meet each other was a ok episode. |
P O S I T I V E V I B E Sシ  |
| It was an ok episode and yes Kanoko is disturbingly obsessive over Hime. I think Sumika has a legitimate concern since I think Kanoko would "let it all burn" if Hime "broke up" with her. I doubt Hime knows how obsessive Kanoko is over her. |
| a whole backstory episode for my least favorite character. Her quiet obsession creeps me out, she feels so unstable and I fear she could go mental every second. |
| Hmm, interesting, a fully flashback episode, at least it's less intense than the last episode, the story was somewhat nice, I don't have much hate to say about it, but I don't think it makes me accept more Kanoko as being a crazy bitch that's way too obsessed with Hime, but we will need to see how it'll wrap up in the next episode. I'm still excited to see what will happens in the next episode however ! |
| I like everything, ok |
| I think Kanoko’s backstory definitely a sweet one and her love for Hime makes sense now, it doesn’t really justify the obsessiveness tho of course. And it was also a good showing of Hime’s good qualities outside of her facade, that was a pro play when she saved Kanoko not once, but twice regarding her destroying the canvas. As for Kanoko herself, she’s kinda how I expected her to be before becoming friends with Hime. I did think destroying the canvas was a dumb move, especially when she already made it but I get the sentiment, and thankfully she came around big time once Hime shined some light on her life. I also really loved her hairstyle at the time, reminds me of Ayumi from Corpse Party. Only issue is tho, she needs to get over her issues in the present regarding Hime, she hasn’t done anything bad yet but I think she might giving how Sumika has provoked her, and I have an idea on how Sumika might handle the situation but I’ll wait patiently for now. And once again, no matter how reckless Kanoko gets, I gotta defend my blue waifus lol, she already has a lot of people hating her looks like so I gotta die on this hill I suppose lol. |

| Serial killer vibes episode 😇😇😇 If she doesn't kill Mitsuki or Sumika next week, I'll be super surprised |
| Hime is more of an angel than she knows! Her facade is good, but her personality is even better - makes all the introvert girls fall for her. Unfortunatly, Kanoko still has a screw loose. If only she could truly learn from Hime, she could live a very happy life. Anyway, I loved the backstory! This show might actually have the best chrarater writing of the entire season! |
| Oh joy, another fucking episode which has Kanoko in the limelight, we learn more about her past and a deeper understanding of her mindset, desperately trying to squeeze a drop of sympathy out of it's viewers, as if I give a shit about this yandere clown who's ruining this show lol... Haven't seen a drop in quality between former and latter halves, since maybe Shingeki no Bahamut: Virgin Soul. |
Inexplicable said: 100%, good lord. Preach. the whole episode was the backstory of an irrelevant crazy bitch. I'd say it was the worst episode so far |
| Hime having to help Kanoko lie her way out of the mess that Kanoko made for herself, seems as though Hime has found a partner in crime. I agree with Kanoko that Hime having to show her true emotions is better than the fake facade personality that Hime puts up for herself when around other people. |
| The show really has picked up in this second arc imo. I feel bad for those who dropped after 3 eps.I know some people don't like the Kanako backstory, but I feel like it's needed. She's an unlikeable character, but I like the drama she adds. |
 |
| so this is the "yurification" of Kanoko. well, she's lucky to have met Hime. |
| We finally get to see Kanoko's backstory, the very reason why she is very possessive of Hime. Like any other unpopular anime character, she hates normies and for her case, I don't think it's justifiable. Her classmates were simply having fun together and doing Kanoko a favor by including her in. People like her usually get left out. Yeah they were a bit pushy and maybe shouldn't use the "everyone has done their part but you so at least do this" card, but I think they were being very sincere. What Kanoko criticizes Hime for, she's also guilty of. She doesn't like hanging out with those people yet she does what they ask of her. That's what Hime has been doing. Truly the case of the pot calling the kettle black. It's a good thing to speak your mind, but there's time and place for it. Adapting like Hime, telling lies and putting up a facade is the correct move to play most of the time. Just don't let the people you have been lying to find out tho. It's scary how used Hime is to lying and people buy her lies all the time because of her facade. You can call her a hypocrite and a liar all you want, but it's people like Hime that's thriving. I'm a little disappointed we don't get the continuation of Sumika and Kanoko's argument. I guess Kanoko's backstory is necessary for when she is confronted with her creepiness. |
"Nobody could laugh at someone who's trying their hardest" -Machio- |
| Kanoko is too much obsecionnal with Hime... i can't appreciate her... it could be cute but it's like to have a girlfriend too much jealous and you can't go out if she is not Ok lol |
| I dislike Kanoko so much that I was hoping this series would go full gore and get her killed off. Her type of character isn't endearing. It's creepy. |
| Kanoko's backstory of the classmate that befriended Hime, only to turn into a yandere, it all started back in middle school where she was the outcast, and out of the group, Hime was the good and nurtured kid out of them all, being a class favourite. From a class-wide made video to their homeroom teacher getting married, her perception of Hime gets better as the days pass despite her thinking that the "good kid" will tell on her. The class event that Kanoko forced on herself to complete without any back hunch, it's Hime that tries to tell her what's right and wrong, but she just would not listen. The breaking moment when the class message was badly tattered by her, and she tries not to keep mum about it, but Hime coming to her rescue and lying to her face, it's just the temporary reclusion to ease the class's worries. The actual realization that Hime was carrying her own façade act, and her trying to understand Hime's intention on wanting to pour her heart out, it's the way she's wired after her episode with Mitsuki before, barring that the latter could not defend herself, and ended up hating Hime for life. That's where her story with Hime starts, and thinking back then, it would've been for the better now that Kanoko even has a façade to boot, and that is where her obssession with Hime also started, as her special someone. What twisted logic, but honestly, if not for Hime, Kanoko would not turn out the way she is today. |
 |
| to be honest this episode actually not looking bad at all !! |
| It was... okay I guess. I'll admit I prefered when the story was focused on Yano/Hime rather than Kanoko. It was still interesting to get to know why she got so attached to Hime. Hope the last few episodes will bring us back, at least a little bit, to Hime/Yano. |
| This episode we got to learn that not only is Kanoko a sociopath NOW, but she always was a Sociopath. Hating her classmates for being happy people even though they were nice to her the whole time. It was kinda framed as the "I used to be bullied" backstory, but the only one who did horrible things was Kanoko herself. She needs serious therapy. |

| "Do you want me to take you away... to a place in this city where wishes come true?" |
| Was I supposed to feel empathy for Kanoko after this episode? Because I kinda hate her even more now. Those were like the nicest classmates a teenager could ask for and she still acted like she was being tormented by them 24/7 smh. |
| omgg another filler episode, its ok to show how they met and etc.. but the intire episode its too much |
| I don't really like Kanoko but I don't really hate her either and don't find her actions as off putting as some of the rest of viewers , it's her attitude I take issue with but it's not unrelatable entirely. She just is an introvert with low self esteem that doesnt like how more extroverted people carelessly inconvenience people like her. In this episode they demonstrated her taking photos of Hime all the time is just derived from her being reliant on seeing Hime to stand up for herself while putting on a façad and kind of doing exactly what Hime told her to do just she has taken it to a more extreme because she is all she has. It's not exactly like she is obsessed with Hime because that's how she is inherently, just she has no one else to give her attention and no one else gives her attention except when they want something from her so she doesn't have balance. If Sumika actually was to befriend Kanoko that would have helped her but instead she made things worse by just using her and disrespecting her feelings and blackmailing her. I find Sumika currently the most selfish in her actions even above Kanoko's desire to isolate Hime from having real relationships with other people though we havent had her backstory yet just glimpses of what her motives are. Had she not done that she may have even been able to connect with other people at work too but now she knows she's just a tool to others except Hime, at least that's how she sees it. Hime actually is looking a lot better now since from her backstory with Kanoko we see her true motive is to live an easier life, as contradictory as that may seem from how much effort she has to put in all the time and all the drama this has caused her. She actually seems like an actually caring person even though she bullshits people all the time. |

| Backstory for Kanoko and her relationship with Hime hm, I believe after this it makes sense that she's so attached to her, she just need to get rid of her mindset she already had because of her school life now |
 |
| what a wack ass backstory holy shit kanako is so unlikable and a fkn dumbass oh u hate those type of people who fucking put effort into building even a semblence of a community? ure literally not even getting bullied howd u develop such an insane outlook on everything, u just sit there judging everybody else around u, unable to look into a mirror, u choose to be alone, u choose to let them "take up space" whatever the fuck that means and everybody around u was literally trying to bring u in through this this class wide thing, and u just hating asshole im pissed because there are legitimate reasons for why people might end up hating everybody else, even if that misguided, but in many cases its understandable i really hope manga was more fleshed out, cuz from the anime, shes just innately an asshole, for no reason, and she dares to take up the persona of a victim or something arghh shes ruining an anime i really enjoyed the first half of |

| Oh that's the story where Kanoko become a creep, something awakened inside her and its thanks to Hime, same with Yano side, i guess. Lmao what kind of drama was that xd. The naivety of Kanoko really kickings in with all of her story like that. No wonder she's being that possessive and can be aggressive too depends on the situation because of her nature already like that from the child. Poor Hime, the facade master. Stay in act 24/7 but when she needs a rest, the places were just full of an eccentric one. Grade school, Hime found a good kid with so honest nature to the point its shot them both in the foot. In the middle school, Hime found the same good kid with a very silent nature but can be deadly which surely needs to be taken care of very respectful otherwise it can bit since she sure can be dangerous xd. Now the high school time arrive with both people meet each other with all the hate surrounded over those sketchy rp cafe. I wish a good luck for the next episode, especially to Hime inner peace, since she really needs it, really. |

| A whole fucking episode revolving around a heterosexual wedding Anime!! NOOO! I want LESBIANS! Girl on girl There are a million other ways they could choose to do a backstory. Like they did with Hime and Mitsuki. I enjoyed that one. But this was horrible Anime that force-feeds me with heterosexuality now has 1/10 |
 |
| Kanoko has that mean streak in her. Her eyes when she left the restaurant being told to back off of Hime is very telling. My biggest concern is that Hime told her to vent more, and for someone who is a bit troubled and disillusioned, may sound like an order rather than a suggestion. |
