| Finally, Tomo's character debut in the anime! Tbh, I liked her personality from the manga. She teases a lot so this translated over to the anime. Medaka got teased by her right in front of Mona's face. I think Medaka's expressions were priceless with the death stares and annoying looks lol Asahi also some on-screen time with Medaka so it added some awkward moments between her. But hey, at least she is getting more bolder each epsiode. |

| Another character that’s better than Mona lmao OMG I AM SO PROUD OF ASAHI FOR KISSING MEDAKA!! Perfect time to start being more aggregate since now the girls are gonna have even more competition. Gotta stand out somehow lol Tomo is a riot tho had a lot of fun watching this ep for once. Why do these authors always make the supporting characters better than the main! Plus she should make things actually progress |

| So happy to see Asahi finally build up the courage to kiss Madeka and be more assertive in her pursuit of him. Tomo seems such a great new addition and am so looking forward to seeing what she gets upto. |

| "If ... if I were his girlfriend, could I spend time with him like this whenever I wanted?" You mean with him blindfolded, or maybe bound? meowaarrrrr Ashai. So, "cutesy ditz" is just a facade for Mona. Thought Medeka was going to have an apoplexy with that zipper. Next time Tomo, ask me. I have had long experience helping women with clothing. "What was she even here for , anyway." As an interesting character and a plot device to trigger you to reflect upon you feeling for Medeka, Mona, duh. "Nope, I don;t get it at all" Spoken for all of us who are not crazy. How is Tsubomi going to react to her rival as a Mona fan and wing gal. Just a musing, does Mona have some childhood trauma partly causing her to be the way she is? Likely not I expect “This ain't that kind of movie kid”. |

| So Tomo was Mona's childhood friend and not Medaka's which makes more sense considering how he is around girls. At least with Tomo here she will make Mona realize her feelings about Medaka which is good timing considering the move Asahi pulled off. |
| I thought her childhood friend would be an unbearable btch, turns out she's even willing to help our two hopeless's. She's quite cute and hot too herself so imma fk with her. She's definitely up to something not good though. also, this scene foooooooooooooo |
| Funny episode as always. Still shocked as to that we've literally got 3 episodes left, and Mona still hasn't actually realized her feelings, can't believe how love-dense she is, but she makes up for it with her cuteness, i guess. Excited to know how this would conclude. |
Alfredo-Sauce said: I recall a line from EP1 about where he grew up having only old men and goats.So Tomo was Mona's childhood friend and not Medaka's which makes more sense considering how he is around girls. |
| Lord Cruelty V "But my Dreams they're not as empty, as my conscience seems to be" |
| Tomo is here and got transferred to Mona's school and in the same class ahaha, but what can we say she's definitely a man lover, and helped Mona realize that Kuroiwa is indeed her first love |
 |
| Ooh Asahi was bold stealing the kiss on the cheek, nice one Speaking of bold, Tomo... I don't think my man Kuroiwa will survive if she keeps teasing him, she's too much lol I wonder how long it will take for Mona to notice her own feelings |
  Imouto suki Tsundere-Chuuni-Imoutos save me...   |
| I thought from Tomo’s design that she would be a tomboy, also because her name is Tomo which is the same as a character that also has red short hair and is a tomboy lol, but she turned out to be more of a mature type, someone else mentioned Ichika from QQ and I feel that too, although Ichika wasn’t as daring as Tomo clearly is with that zipper gag lol. I also thought at first that Tomo would be another love rival based on her talk about getting a Tokyo boy, but by the end it looks like she’s gonna be a wingwoman kinda like Haruno is, she really got the clearest answer out of Mona regarding her love for Medaka, kinda wild she can say all that but not even realize how she’s feeling but she’ll get there, one day lol. Asahi also had a fantastic moment this episode, it was with the help of her friend Minami but I loved seeing her go for it with Medaka on the roof, she may have blindfolded him and didn’t even tell him that she kissed him but I think it was a great play. Now I by no means dislike Mona, I think she’s very fun in fact, but Asahi is definitely my favorite of the two so I hope there’s a bit more of her being aggressive in the final three episodes. |
| I can finally say that I enjoyed an episode! Thanks to Asahi's stolen kiss on Medaka (thanks to Minami for that) and the introduction of the new character, Tomo. Even though Tomo and Mona are similar, there is a thin line that separates them, and that's what makes me like Tomo. (Another character being better than Mona isn't surprising at this point.) That said, Tomo's arrival actually made me see Mona in a better light. It's not that I don't like Mona because she's a narcissist, it's because she pretends to be someone she's not, unlike Tomo. Tomo will bring out the real Mona. Although that's not going to stop her from being on Team Asahi. |
 |
| For one Tomo character episode receives a clean 10. |
Funny to see Tomo understanding right away what was going on with Mona. Her face says it all after Mona justifies herself: Being such a tease, Tomo would make Mona do this face many times:  Though, while these two play... PROGRESS!  |
| Tomo is literally THE BEST GIRL EVER!!! LOVE HER! |
 |
| A massive improvement compared to previous episodes, with a new character added to the fold.. This will be very interesting to watch in the future. |

| Tomo is less than annoying than I initially thought. If she can put some sense in this nonsense duo then it be better.(I doubt it) Minami did Asahi a solid there. I don't really get Asahi pov of why this idiot unlike Mona but still nice job. |
| Tomo’s introduction was exactly as I expected, and I’m glad they didn’t change her dynamic. Overall, I really enjoyed the episode. With each passing moment, Mona seems to be accepting her fate more and more, and Tomo will be a key piece in that process. Asahi came in full force this episode. She was a bit absent in the last one, but this time she really stepped up. Even though the credit for the situation goes to Minami, Asahi still took the initiative. |
 |
| I’m happy to see that Asahi & Medaka have some alone time together. That trick-or-treat part was nice as well, good on Asahi! Tomo is certainly mischievous as hell, but she seems like she’s gonna put Mona in check since Mona has been in denial for a while. I’m still team Asahi. |
 |
| Team Mona. I like this show a whole bunch. Maybe the most of any show this season. |
 |
| Damn Mona's friend really highlighted her real personality more than usual. w shono for dat daring cheek kiss. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Thought I wouldn't give much of af about the Ichika-looking character, but man she just drops in and becomes the best character in two seconds. Respect to any character that can read their friend like a book. |
  NYANPASU  whiskey tango foxtrot |
| Asahi's friends is a very dedicated wingwoman, and finally it's official for me those in bento boxes were octopus wurstels... Nice to watch but not to eat. Not convinced about Mona's friend for now, and yeah, her having the same voice of Yuu Takasaki seems unbelievable (and also acts like another Love Live character of a previous generation... Nozomi). Still, good final scene, somehow Tomo's suddenly enrolling in the exact same school didn't seem that much of a contrived coincidence (i seriously thought she was just visiting for the rest of the season) and some of Mona's face reactions still remain the highlight of the series for me. |
 |
| Asahi continuing to stalk Kuroiwa from afar, and with her accidental dropping of her student pass for the latter to pass it back to her in her class, Minami taking the chance for Asahi to make the first move to invite him for lunch, that's class. As much as Kuroiwa maintains his sanity, Asahi blindfolding him to maintain her own sanity, even to the point of giving him her first kiss, she's bold alright. At the same time, Mona's childhood friend of the natural flirt of Tomo Namba meeting her, knowing full well of her cutesy infamy only to pick up her scraps thereafter. And coming to Tokyo, Tomo's once again looking for someone to toy with, though Mona can't quite hide her look of interest in Kuroiwa...which he just happens to be at the restaurant at the worst time possible. Obviously, the purist monk-in-training doesn't appreciate this situation one bit, and Tomo being the worst enemy he could face being sexually teased by her, it's just not right at all. Worse still, her transferring to the class only brings detriment to both Mona and Kuroiwa, which more than the latter being harassed by Sho thinking that he had some fun while he's gone, Mona's heartaches, yet like Asahi's suspicions, are duly confirmed by Tomo that she has an interest in him. Yelp, now we finally have REAL competition with the lead girls and their supporting besties helping them, it's a real race to strike at Kuroiwa's heart! |

| OMG HUGE BADONGKAS BOOBAS |
| Yeah, idk if the addition of the pervy girl was necessary. Still don't understand why people are cheering for Asahi after kissing Medaka. Especially when those who are cheering her on are the same people who complain about guys doing the same thing in a different anime forum. If a girl was blind folded and an obsessive guy kissed her, it would be the end of the world. I don't get it, the double standards are incredibly frustrting. Once again, if the roles were reversed, everyone would be flipping out and calling out the sexual harassment. But since Mona is a cute girl, no one says a peep |
As a wise man once said, "No one hates anime more than anime fans"  |
| Mona and Asahi couldn't be more different—one comes on aggressively to Medaka but refuses to accept that she loves him, while the other gets all shy and weird when it's time to make a move, yet openly loves him. It was about time for Tomo to arrive. Loved her charismatic and assertive personality. With her, maybe—just maybe—Mona will finally realize her love for Medaka and bring an end to the loop, so we’ll get some progression in the story. |

| Asahi got the first kiss, wrap it up guys it's over |
