This episode as absolutely hilarious, the bromance between Joro & Sun-chan lmao (though feels weird to remember that 4 weeks ago he was a betrayer)

And how nice, a new challenger appeared & makes the harem even bigger

I thought it was a good episode, a bit of a filler episode but there's nothing wrong with an episode showing how the main group have developed into a group of friends.

It is obviously all going to backfire on Joro, he's getting it all a bit too easily at the moment, so i have no worries about this turning into a typical harem. In fact, he's gone against his original aim, the fact he chose Sun Chan as most the one he had the most fun with is quite the shift in both of their original positions.

Meanwhile, a former enemy has changed her look for him and a new character has arrived that could send his reputation back down to rock bottom. There was still enough going on in this episode, a new threat is definitely on the way.

And the Sun Chan choice at the end is obviously a joke but also down to the fact that Joro is relieved to spend time with someone that isn't causing him stress. That is quite a normal reaction for men or women to decide it is easier to spend a bit of time with their own gender. Nothing wrong with that and it was well done and quite funny.

Feels weird watching Sun chan and Joro together after Sun chan betraying him and attempting to rape Pansy.. They sould not be friends in the first place and forget about the romance, there should be now harem tag for this anime.

Really don't understand what the fuck people in this thread are talking about. This was a pretty good episode, and it was funnier than anything we've had before. 🤷‍♂️


Pretty much this, people here are watching a harem romcom acting like just because the first episode "subverted" their expectations the entire series should be like this when is just a romcom with some interesting developments, expecting some writing masterpiece from this is stupid af, and it still quite refreshing compared to so many other romcoms

This episode is a perfect example of "Bros before hoes".

Interesting to see how Sun-chan, Himawari and Cosmos' romance seem to be dropped completely, at least for now. We're starting to see Joro building up his harem, which wasn't originally the draw of this show. I'm not a big fan of harem, but if we're going to see Joro reject the new girl sometime soon, then I'll be fine with it.

What is this anime trying to be?
One of the philosophies of absurdism...is the conflict between humans seeking meaning, while unable to find meaning. When I watch this anime, my feelings parallel that philosophy: there is no logical purpose for me to watch this anime, yet I continue to do so.
This anime has absolutely no identity: it originally starts off trying to be a dark twist on the harem romcom formula, by introducing a genuinely asshole MC, who doesn't have a harem of girls. However, now every girl wants the MC. Not only that, but the MC all of a sudden is not an asshole at all. Sure, Joro has those moments when he glees in delight at the idea of girls wanting him, but...that's perfectly normal for a horny teenage boy his age: there's nothing wrong with that, as long as he doesn't taken advantage of the girls' feelings for him, which he doesn't. It's like the writer was thinking, "How can I make the MC an asshole, while making him likeable?" But was so focused on making the MC likeable, they ironically completely removed the asshole aspect of him. The MC's motivations make no sense either: initially, his goal was to have a harem of girls. Well, a group of girls are constantly flocking to him. He even has romantic feelings for one of them, Pansy. Yet...he doesn't even date one of them, not even Pansy? And he doesn't seem to be aware that Cosmos and his childhood friend really want him, even though it's so obvious, even though the MC is presented initially as a character who isn't a moron? What makes characters like Kazuma from Konosuba, and Seiya from Cautious Hero so fun to watch is that they embrace their assholish sides, but not to a point where they're despicable, and still show their good sides, as they deep down care for their friends, and have a sense of moral. I call this trope the, "Asshole with a heart of gold", a trope that Oresuki is clearly trying to follow, yet completely fails at it. On a side note, the "joke" of the characters pointing out a generic beach episode being...a generic beach episode is not clever at all. As Digibro said, it's like a guy pissing on the street while yelling "I'm pissing on the street!" I've been told this is a trope called the, "lamp shade effect", but does that make it a good trope? It's awful.
Yet, I keep watching this anime, because I'm addicted to it the same way I'm addicted to junk food.


Wow couldn't have said it any better myself. You managed to perfectly sum up all the problems I have with this show. Couldn't agree with you more, and yet, like you, I can't stop watching this train wreck.

Oh yeah, I'm just a sucker for episodes like this one. They all looked great in their swimsuits, especially Pansy and Cosmos. That dyed hair girl is cute too. Sun-chan became the best bro for this episode. This is one of the most funniest episode of this series. 5/5 Episode. I wonder who that girl in the end was though.

Joro X Sun-chan FTW !! Best couple ever.
"boob alert" scene was good tbh, Joro looking for the bench caught me off guard. Rest of episode was meh.

And gooosh, Joro's mum's voice doesn't suit her at all, sounds like 10-13 years old girl. Not an adult at all

Amazing episode! laughed so hard xD I knew it!! Sun-cha was the MVP, Joro just ignore them and stay with him hahaha The best friend scene was really funny xD

The red-haired girl is so much pretty now! I love how they unexpectedly introduced her to Joro and now all of this.

The ending scene! Who in the world is that?

I've never liked fan service episode, and this episode is nothing different. But I consider myself as a chillax person. I'm not liking something doesn't mean I'm thrashing it, no. I don't have crazy expectation of the series because it will end up becoming your everyday harem anyway.

Though Sansaqua's appearance change is good in my opinion. I'm super weak against gap-moe, so yeah, it hit me pretty hard. The last knight-esque girl weird me out by the way...

BENCH-KUN, WHERE ART THOU!?!? Is Joro's thought when he needs an area of escape, and I love it.

Sidenote, Joro's mum in a loli-esque voice reminds me of Masamune's mom (from Masamune-kun no Revenge). BUT Pansy in his house reeks of red flags. His mom getting the short-name treatment as the others...HOT DAMN!

The 5-men/women clique are together...at a pool, means fanservice galore, and momentary 4th wall breaking.

Oh, that red-haired girl from class again? What's her name again? (Sasanqua) Regardless, they cleared their misunderstandings...albeit bit by bit.

The girls' fíght for Joro gets underway...with Joro hanging in the middle, aided by Sun-chan. His harem is getting real...nipslip for Himawari, "boob alert" for Cosmos, and more "coincidental" threat-stalking from Pansy. In all of these, Sun-chan is best girl, the saviour of the day. Dumbfounded is everyone, nook or cranny.

All's well that ends well for Joro, plus his clearance from the newspaper fiasco of Asunaro...and the major change of Sasanqua, HOLY SHITTTT that's a change!

The moment I dread...is the new girl, Yoko...AGAIN, going ahead for Joro? A childhood friend? Classmate? What gives!? With the knightly kiss and such...what tragedy lies in store for our fervent MC!?

First and foremost this show is based on LN and not the manga. The after credits scene is not new content anymore (it takes place directly after the festival in LN and manga, so this episode would start with it if it was a faithful adaptation). Sasanqua also changes her hair in LN due to similar reason as in this episode, but it occurs later on...

The first few episodes were really funny which is why I put up with all the fan-service but it's no longer so funny.

Sun-chan might have been the best girl this episode but bench-chan is the true best girl, waiting for bench-chan to make a comeback.

Joro x Sun-chan all the way!

In another note Pansy annoys me a lot.
I like to post in manga forum when I feel it is worth it, so people will think. "Shit, is her again" or something.

People asked me where I read certain thing but the rules say no telling where did you read so maybe I am too boring for not saying? Or salty because you didn't check my profile that says don't ask because I hate people to ghost me after that. I love learning languages so maybe I did not read the manga in English.

This episode has so much to unpack. First, the hot young mother making friends with stalker girl Pansy. Joro's reaction to seeing Pansy in his house. The "totally original swimsuit episode" and the girls in their bathing suits: Himawari: 😍 Cosmos: 🤩 Pansy: 🤯 The girl in the drink line: 🤨 Looking for the bench: 🤣 Sun-chan is best girl? Err, boy?? Ammm, bench??? 🥴 Oh, and mystery girl at the end. 🤔
