Lol, I still can't take that astronaut outfit seriously. We got more adorable scenes between Adachi and Shimura when they were sharing ice cream.

Pacing feels fine so far as the main focus is still on Adachi and Shimamura'srelationship.

So no more Yuri Thursdays now that Assault Lily has been moved to Fridays, sigh.

This episode gave me diabetes, yet again. Crazy how this show’s carrying the fall season.

I was over here squealing like a little girl every time Adachi made gradual advances towards Shimamura. Particularly the donut and “can I sit between your legs” scenes. I love their chemistry and how everything feels very grounded and realistic. Looking forward to next week and seeing how their relationship blossoms.

Well wow. I love the way they take these slow so you can really experience the awkwardness and excitement of slowly falling in love.

Most shows with MF are awkward enough but this FF GL is really diving in deep! 🥰

Of course there wouldn't be a kiss...yet

Another great episode. The sweetness is off the charts and Adachi in a Chinese dress :3 Extra point for good taste.

Hmm a alien in a spacesuit how curious. The convo between it and Shimamura though sure was amusing. School though is indeed a society that is quite unique. Its nice to see that Adachi does indeed attend classes though. Considering her looks its kinda surprising that no one's actually remarked on Shimamura's beauty. After playing hooky for so long its nice to see both make some effort to get back into education. Their interaction in the mall sure was fun and cute. Space man though sure is rather amusing. Looks like the first change in their relationship is finally here. To think that Adachi's part time job will be a waitress though. Still that uniform really suits her. Shimamura's room though sure looks pretty roomy. Adachi though sure was adorable in her reactions to being there though. Overall a pretty sweet ep that did well to expand upon both Adachi and Shimamura via expanding of their desires and overall goals in their relationship. It looks like the spark for their romance has started within Adachi's heart.

I didn’t like the first episode but this was great.

Adachi knows what she wants to do but doesn’t accept her feelings for Shimamura. Their relationship is developing quickly but that’s not enough for Adachi. She’s the possesive type, she wants Shimamura all to herself. If Adachi shows how she really feels about being with Shimamura’s friends she might lose her.

Honestly, it's the second episode and we have had 4 kissing tease scenes? JUST KISS ALREADY!

On a more serious note... Atleast they held hands already! This was so damn adorable just like last week. The chemistry between Adachi and Shimamura just keeps on getting better. They keep on complimenting each other and honestly I can't help but agree with both, they are really cute! So it's Adachi who starts to get feelings for Shimamura, but she can't see clearly yet what these feelings mean. The scene where Adachi asks to sit between Shimamura's legs was adorable and I love the way Adachi was freaking out about it all.

I love how Shimamura finds joy in teasing Adachi. Especially when she found out where Adachi works. That outfit though is absolute FIRE on her! What a perfect match.


So far I am really digging the blush faces of Adachi and the close-ups on the girl's faces. They look so good and well drawn.

Still don't know what to think of that Alien/Astronaut thingy...

Another fine episode. The conversation with Shimamura and the person in the astronaut suit while fishing was pretty interesting and unorthodox too to a degree given the kind of show it is.

Other than that, Adachi is falling deeper and deeper in love with Shimamura at a rapid rate after the first episode. She really could not stop thinking about her whatsoever with the episode brimmed with exposition and monologues about Shimamura.

I can dig them and their relationship since they do share quite an organic bond with each other and clearly comfortable around each other too (already lap pillows, headpatting while using lap pillows, eating each other's food in public, hand holding, sitting on each other's laps, and kiss teases happening so early on). It's quick but at the same time, feels natural too which is dope despite some awkward feelings at times.

The visuals are still a mixed bag for me but the soundtrack makes up for it and the imagery choices to showcase Adachi's feelings and thoughts was nice too - it shows the desperation of wanting to date Shimamura quite a lot.

P.S: Adachi can sure pull of a Chinese dress.

Oh Adachi you are deeply in love, you love Shimamura more than you think you do.

Seems like there relationship is starting to take shape in a good way I hope and damn both of them look fantastic in a white dress as well as Adachi in the chinese dress. I really enjoy the fact that we were able to see the perspective of Adachi when with Shimamura. Yuri is great.........and cute.

Great episode :)

Hmm, a bit better than the last episode I guess. Although that alien is really annoying and intrusive element in this show, trying to bring in some deep shit that isn't really as deep. I mean, such mascot is really unnecessary and 4th wall breaking for this type of show. Even if it's tied to DenpaOnna (author inner voice), it should remain cameo only, not one of the characters. Actually, it would be okay, if that was just projection of Shimamura fantasies but other people have saw it so that thing is out of the question.

Also, when we are trying for yuri romance, it strikes me weird that Shimamura wouldn't be conscious of some of Adachi's approaches - like lying on lap, holding hands, sitting between the legs.. that's actually very intimate thing when you think about it. So I guess I kinda miss her internal thoughts on that but at least she reacted with suprise.

Other than that, the scene in the restaurant was good and Adachi's outfit looked cool, I kinda applaud that their portrayed her backstory too (something direly missing in ep1). One thing I don't buy just yet is her truancy.. surely the teacher would take her to school director quickly if she had absences like that. If I have to guess, she's living alone (or not with her family) and paying for her room which would kinda explain where she spends her time.

Also, I think Adachi is way too posessive in her seeing of Shimamura which can change into very unhealthy relationship later. She should probably start accepting Shimamura's other friends instead of rejecting them from the start too. But this is not necessarily the complain as girls in love tend to act very similiarly so I guess that was good portrayal of that. Still, let's not forget it's very one-sided romance as of now, at least as their thoughts go. Adachi basically forces her fantasies onto Shimamura without her feeling the same.

The direction was annoying me from the beginning, and the anime script didn't help it at all in this second episode. This is terribly rushed and silly. Dropped.

This is another nice episode. I like how both Adachi and Shimamura gets to share their donuts, and the way Shimamura gets to open her mouth is just so cute. Shimamura decided to give a donut to Yashiro, so she should see her face, but Yashiro still hasn't shown her face under her helmet while eating the donut. I personally think Yashiro's going to be a fine mascot of the show. I also like how Adachi looked in her beautiful dress while she was working in a restaurant. She was pretty shocked to see Shimamura and her family. Lastly, Adachi had a nice yuri moment in Shimamura's room by sitting on her legs.

Okay AdaShi, I think I'm getting the hang of you. We got some cute Adachi and Shimamura moments here and there. Adachi looks cute with her work uniform and Shimamura has those long pretty legs, not gonna lie. Even though I didn't necessarily connect with it last episode, this time I finally get it.

Its mid pacing and very cozy atmosphere will definitely give me some warm feels and emotions throughout the series. That astronaut gave Shimamura some philosophical piece of thought, with that "fishing" as a metaphor to Shimamura's step for her future. Is Shimamura gonna take that next step for her future or will she just stay stuck up in the present? That was a good moment in the episode.

Adachi once again is like that overthinking girl. Is Shimamura gonna accept her as her first or will she just be another one of her friends. It's scary to think that the one person you look up to and care for will only mind you as a so-so friend and will slowly distance apart. That moment pretty much justified my interest for this show.

That last moment was fun tho. Even though she bit of a Dandere, Adachi still can get flustered with that misfired confession.

As a guy who thought he was straight most of his life and then suddenly realized he was having feelings for his best friend and had to come to terms with this new and alien feeling, this episode was super relatable. Except unlike Adachi I kept it to myself for like a year instead of telling them within a week of realizing I'm catching feelings

Damn you, little astronaut! Ruining such precious hand-holding moment.

Well, guess it's settled. Adachi is my favorite lead here. Her mindset as well as her chemistry with Shimamura feel surprisingly real and the good job Akari Kitou is doing with her character is definitely a plus in both aspects.

Solid second episode overall. I really like how well the "awkwardness" of falling in love without noticing is being handled and the same can be easily said for Adachi's feelings of jealousy and possessiveness. Very relatable indeed.

Oh shit, Adachi really wanted Shimamura lips so hard. She even dream about kissed it, twice! Holy cow, she was too aggresive xd. Unfortunately, it seemed that Shimamura still didn't understand and kinda denses against Adachi weird behaviour, or i must say she was too passive? She even thought that their last scene was a normal situations. The heck girl? You were so funny xD. However, the whole episode was understandable. Its all on Adachi's pov, not even added some Shimamura view on that scenes. So, yeah, it get post-poned again to see their development xd.

At least, They needed to chill out a bit, calm down first and acted more gentle, especially with Adachi's deed. The progression of Adachi's life was nice, she even attending her class more than before, the same condition went to Shimamura too. However, the real Adachi behaviour was not even get transform in fast. Theres still a massive gap, as a loner, and her obsession against Shimamura. She didn't even feel anything rather than Shimamura. There was a real deal, and Shimamura as a tolerable girl and a some kind of nice person, won't let that slipped away from her. Such a sweet girl! Its interesting to see their next interaction again. Second episode in, and theres no heavy drama intacted. In one side, i knew they both grew the same feeling. Even though i don't think Shimamura felt too straight forward to Adachi, at this episode, at least they were indeed had a chemistry. A great spark has been slowly arouse, it seemed. While in the other side, Adachi was surely has been fell into Shimamura, and tried hard to suspend her own feeling as much as possible. Because it might feel weird and awkward in front of Shimamura. But, was that good? Lets see the next to see their funny respond against the last scene xD

Also, the damn astronaut was not even distract me much from their awkward relations. To hell with the phylosophical thingy that appeared in the first till middle parts. I might rather forget it, and chill out with their interaction, rather thinking too much about the real deal of that astronaut. Which was indeed hinted something big in the end. Was that even right? I dunno shit xd.
