Well, it's great to know that the festival was a success.

Again, I think it's sweet to see Komura and Mei bond over again, especially outside the class. Even with her glasses on, it seems Mei is comfortable to get close to him. The way Komura touched her face...probably a moment he won't forget.

The cultural festival episode is finally upon us huh?

The cultural festival that had been prepared for successfully took place. The two of them enjoyed looking at each other's exhibition pieces. While presentations for various clubs were being held in the gymnasium, when Komura saw Mie leave her seat, he decided to follow suit and left the gymnasium as well.

Lmao, we had the chance to see Komura's and Mie's mom, and their plural opposites of each other. Komura's mom is more laid back and pushes Komura to do stuff like wanting him to get a ear piercing, and Mia's mom is very strict when it comes to things like staying at school for too long. Also I like the approach they took with the festival, in it being that we don't focus on it so much lol. That whole final moment on the bench was sweet and felt last episode-esque. But there's still one more episode to go.

Will Mie actually remember her glasses for the final?

Festival date was successful.
it's nice seeing them (Mei-san & Kimora-kun) bonding over again.
He Touched her 😏 face, he probably will never forget that feeling for his rest of life.

That's one awesome mom lol
After imagining Mie with piercings Komura felt something awaken within him...
They have sewing classes?
7:57 あざまる水産 (azamarusuisan) - a slang for "arigatougozaimasu". At first I thought it might be that in reverse but it's more like the sounds were just jumbled around lol. I've never heard about "mercy buckets" either. Slangs are fascinating.
Let's gooo Komura! Why am I so happy about him returning the shoes lol
They're progressing little by little!
I can already hear all the jokes about the dad thing

Getting piercings for the cultural festival seems a bit much. The octopus was a nice idea on Mie's part. Someya's like the ghost of gossip lol. If she had told her mom beforehand im sure she would have allowed Mie to stay out later to help out. Komura as a dad though is something that i can actually see.

Komura's mom made him dye his hair and now she wants him to get pierced? Does she want her son to look like a delinquent or something? That's the total opposite of some Japanese moms.

Damn. Mie's parents are strict. Good thing she got her cocoa this time thanks to Komura covering for her.

Lmao. Imagine being dad-zoned. But somehow it's still wholesome.

When Komura touched Mie's face I felt the same kind of warmth I'd feel when characters would kiss in other anime. Amazing. I do want to see those two kiss though. That'd be something.

Damn. Looks like Komura won't get to be with Mie in the next episode. Sucks for him.

Not sure why Mie didn't just message her mom and tell her she was staying late to work on bunkasai stuff. But maybe middle schoolers can't think that far ahead.

Bro got dadzoned? Lolz.

Mie was super adorable, so cute. Get together already. Komura's mom seemed quite amusing, she got him to dye his hair blonde and now wants piercings. Was she a yankee or gal? Mie's mom on the other hands seems strict.

Ngl that ending scene was really cute. This show can be quite up and down. Sometimes I’m annoyed by Komura but then there’s times like that ending that are genuinely sweet.

But did bro just get dad zoned?? I’ve never seen that happen lmao

Komura’s mom wanting him to be a delinquent was hilarious. She kinda reminds me of Hori’s dad from Horimiya. Total contrast to Mie’s mom who is really strict and wants her home at a certain time. I actually do think some earrings would look nice on Komura lol.

Jealous Mie strikes again, love how even without her glasses she noticed that her friend was getting a little too close to her man for comfort πŸ˜‚ leading to the whole situation with her forgetting her shoes by staying too late.

Solid episode, still a couple left. We’ll see if they can top this.

Hold up, in the case of Komura being "dad zoned" by Mie it may not be a bad thing considering how much she likes her dad. Maybe that could mean she would want to make Komura a dad down the road?? (ok I'm probably overthinking that).

Beyond that, this was a good episode although I don't know why Komura thought Mie getting ear piercings is naughty (wth, I always thought girls getting ear piercings as normal). Both of them studying each others exhibits was nice and Komura taking Mie's shoes to her house and implying that she was late because of him having her shoes was a good move.

Anyways, curious to see how the last 2 episodes play out although from the preview it looks like they won't be teaming up to cook something but it will probably work out in the end.

We've seen guys getting friendzoned, heck even bro-zoned but this might be one of the rarest instances in the hundred thousands years of humanity on this planet when someone got dad-zoned(?).. what? Is this even a word lol.

I can understand Mie's a kid and what she meant with that, but you don't say something like this on the face of a guy who literally let you live in his head rent free lol.

Quite the eventful episode I would say. They finish up all the festival stuff, Mie breaks her curfew and gets in trouble for it, and Komura shows up at her house to return her shoes.

The ending was so sweet, until the dad comment, I really wasn't expecting that. Then again it was made pretty clear in a previous episode that she doesn't really understand what it means to love another person.

2 more episodes left to go, hopefully they conclude this show with a good ending.

I think the Daddy thing is more than she has never been in "Love" before, however she is very close to her dad so in her mind what she is feeling for him is the same as how she likes being with her dad. She is really sheltered.

Poor Komura got dad zoned, but hey that ain’t so bad lol, she basically called him daddy, and that whole scene was very nice, I thought more might happen than what we got but I still loved it, Mie wanting to enjoy Komura’s face even with glasses was good lol. And seeing Komura’s imagination of Mie with piercings was pretty awesome but of course that wasn’t what was actually going on, but Mie’s little art project was cute for sure lol.

And poor Mie was really upset when she stayed after school without permission, but Komura really had her back there by bringing her shoes and made up an excuse for her, and it’s also good know she did get her morning hot cocoa thanks to her based dad lol, I actually used to do that growing up until I switched to coffee. And the cultural festival looked like a really good time, Mie’s essay was hilarious and very cute but she apparently wasn’t going for that lol. And I thought for a second we just had one episode left but we thankfully have two more, hell yeah lol.

Tbf this episode alone definetly bumps it up a bit but I think I might be getting burned out of these template romances, at least I would think that if Bokuyaba didn't release last season. But that show was so touching that I need to continue to watch them all.

Well there's certainly worse things the girl you like can compare you to than her dad. Considering that Mie is really close with her father it's actually more than likely a good thing. Mie always speaks highly of her dad and how he spoils her and supports her. Two things that absolutely describe Komura, he is so in love with Mie he can't help but indulge her maybe even too much. He's getting his own selfish desires granted from it too but he's still helping Mie out. They both like looking at one another's face, a very cute way to end the episode showing us them just holding each other. Komura doesn't think too highly of himself since he deeply believes he's only in it for his own creepy selfish stuff but in truth Mie just wants to keep him close. Komura can't see at all how Mie would want to look at his face, that self-esteem isn't very high for him. Which makes Mie wanting to see his face close even with her glasses on even cuter. She even wanted an up close look at his art exhibit, a dopey pin cushion to Komura but Mie eyes a wonderful work of art. Komura covering for Mie being late past her curfew was very sweet, another example of him taking care of her and wanting to see Mie happy. That's how you can tell they like each other since they want to see each other be happy.

Komura has respectable looks and style. He looks good together with Mie. And he's not an otaku. But he's badly lacking in confidence. It's a big shortcoming. It was very apparent in this episode.

@Embient 'Mercy buckets', or 'merci buckets', is a jocular malapropism of French 'merci beaucoup' (thanks a lot), influenced by 'buckets of' (lots of).

After gushing over Mie's entry in the same way she was looking at his, and he feels inadequate. Part of it is that his self-esteem is low, but I think another part is that he keeps Mie on such a high pedestal, too.

What a beautiful way to sum up his feelings about the relationship indirectly.

This week's episode is a rather interesting one as the focus on Komura is more front-and-center than ever before.

It was nice to see more of Komura's mom in the episode's cold open, though it was quite surprising to learn that she's an outgoing parent who even encourages her son to do things like dyeing his hair and getting piercings. Although Komura thinks that he wouldn't look good on them, by the end of the episode's first act, he begins to seriously consider getting them after Mie tells him that he might look cool with piercings; yet another instance of Komura's tremendous respect for her.

The second part of the episode has Mie break her curfew just to spend more time with Komura in preparing for the cultural festival. It was actually quite sad to see Mie cry on her way home after she thought Komura went home ahead without telling her. Mie's mom also appears for the first time in this episode, though she's quite the strict parent. Thankfully, Komura is able to spare Mie from a scolding and her hot cocoa being taken away as he makes up an excuse for her homecoming.

The episode ends with the cultural festival as well as a quiet and rather sweet moment shared by Komura and Mie. The highlight of this part (and of the episode as a whole) has got to be Komura's admission of his insecurities as it shows that while he may consider himself dull, selfish, and even a little creepy at times, he'd do anything to be able to keep seeing Mie. This rather emotional scene is quickly followed up with a more lighthearted one as Mie confesses that she sees Komura as a kind and fun father-figure, which surprises him.

Yet another wonderful episode; definitely looking forward to more sweet moments between Komura and Mie next week!
