It's so nice that Aoi wanted to do anything for Kaoru. Now if only I had a wife that would do that. : )

To bad that the pace that this anime is going so slow... *_*

It is starting out to be a nice little show. I would rather the story take its time than to have them try to cram too much in to just a few episodes.

I liked the anime, very entertaining. I don't mind the slow pace, in fact for Slice of Life type animes I prefer a slow to medium pace. As for Aoi, she's very beautiful and I like her personality. She's an ideal wife who will be supportive and always there. Next episode looks like it will be a very good episode. Also the women shown in the preview for next episode reminds me of Kenji Harima's aunt I believe.

seeing him being huged by her reminds that it has been a long time since my last hug from a person I like and how much I miss it

Gods, Aoi's adorable. I kinda hope there turns out to be at least one "wife" thing that she hates doing so Kaoru can be like "Look, don't worry about it; I can handle that one".

I swear I spent half the ep going "Dude, just roll with it. You worry too much." Hopefully his buddies won't get too upset with him; he's suddenly got a lot on his mind! XD

Okay, what the hell happened with Kaoru's mom that resulted in his grampa basically calling her a ho'? And has he always been such a dick?

I think that kaoru is really enjoying the feeling of having someone to come home to. He was daydreaming about Aoi the entire time. He even cancelled plans made previously so that he could go home to her. He is beginning to see that she is really truly in love with him and has been waiting for only him. Aoi is a very loyal dedicated woman she is a true for of Yamato Nadeshiko.. She has observed everything of Kaoru from his likes of food. Colour, favorite song. I like her personality as she is. Shy sweet. As for kaoru's flashback, I went into a protective mode , and really honestly wanted to slap him back. I feel that his mother couldn't take her with him, probably because of some sort of agreement. He is a male heir after all. Had kaoru been a girl then maybe the mother would've taken her. But then also the possibility is that she would have had to leave her as well,.. I have a strong dislike for the grandfather and I will continue to dislike him. I hate him as much as I hate Precia testarossa, And Tamaki suoh's grandmother.

Aoi-chan seems like a dream girl lol, but I'm glad that other characters are going appear to soon. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to stomach the level of pandering

I'd like to share something with you. A Facebook "Friend" (college professor/teacher) of mine once posted a poll and the question asked if his friends/students (the ones who were men) would prefer women who cooked or women who were supportive when men watched their sports/sporting events. The results? "Women who cooked" won overwhelmingly. I want to give this episode a 10/10 because it recognized this value that a majority of men (at least of the American community I live in) wanted as seen through 葵ちゃん's (Aoi-chan's) nurturing.

Thus far I am really enjoying the story. The relationship between Aoi and Kaoru is so wholesome and is something that is hard to find in today's landscape. The pacing is gentle, like a calm river. The show has it's comedic beats but nothing that detracts from the moment. Very reminiscent of early 2000's anime, which is when it first aired, however, I have a nostalgia for such shows. Everything from the iconography, the technology of the times and even how the animation is handled. I'm looking forward to watching the rest of this series! :)
