| This fake Ichika.. I had a feeling it might be Miku. Also, that steam in hot springs scene was unnecessary. |

| Guess I was wrong about Fake Itsuki, but this meant we got a really good Miku moment at the end, hell yeah. I also loved the bit where Yotsuba pushed Ichika to do what she wants, she honestly needed that talk and for it to come from Yotsuba is kinda wild, maybe we’ll see some pro plays from Ichika from here on out. Grandpa is the real mvp for sure, Uesugi needs to start training under him lol. Great episode as always, also I wonder if Ichika and Nino ended up practicing kissing, that would be something. |
| The end with Miku <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 |
| The last part of the episode is a treat for us Miku fans <3 |

| good episode, will they even make it to the wedding |
| The funniest part of this episode is: Unstoppable Nino  |
 |
| It's not strictly the anime's fault, so much as a simple reality of the change from a silent to voiced medium, but a lot of the surprise is taken away from the Itsuki mystery when the voices make it incredibly obvious which Itsuki is which. If anything, the fact that it's so easy to tell which is which just from the voices makes it far more difficult to understand how Futaro can't figure it out at this point; he's spent six months tutoring them and otherwise interacting with them by this point, so surely he knows what they sound like, even if they're attempting to mimic Itsuki's vocal mannerisms. By contrast, it was far easier to accept his confusion in the manga, when we just had the images of all the Itsukis to go off of. Also, yeah, running at that speed to hug Futaro at the bell... that's enough information for people who haven't read the manga to know who it is. |
So the Fake Itsuki mystery unravelled. I did not expect Miku to be the culprit, but I was glad to see that it worked out for her in the end. And we got to see some really fine shots of her, not limited to the following one. The tackle in the end was superb. Now that one's identity is a true enigma. |
| oh hot damn I can't tell the difference between the quintuplets either haha |
 |
| I'm guessing we'll have Fuu have a flashback to the kiss under the belltower next episode, which will be the start of 3rd year. |

kaoticorl said: finally some appreciation for the most interesting quintichika best girl, i still stand by that. |
| Nino is thee obvious choice for the bell scene at the end, but I’m guessing they’ll throw a curve ball and it’ll be Ichika |
| Omg why is Miku so cute!? >.< Unless Ichika does a pro move, the thing is between Miku and Nino so far :P |
THANKS SENPIEX  |
| That scene where Miku is hugging Futaro is so beautiful. The Ichika monologue and her talk with Yotsuba is so sweet. Best episode so far. I'm not into romcom anime too much but this might be my first anime in this genre to be 9/10, can be even 10/10 and that depends on the ending. Unexpectedly good. |
 |
| Damn, Nino is going all in! And after a long time, Fuutarou finally realized that was Miku, but i wonder if by her thoughts she confessed to him or not? Because it seemed like she didn't say it. On the other hand, Yotsuba and Itsuki seem to be the only ones who don't show big feelings towards Fuutarou yet, since it for sure will happen. I do hope to see in the next episode a step in from Ichika, but that bell scene at the end made me think that he will choose Miku? Let's see i guess. |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| Futaro is out to find the Fake Itsuki, but he's dealt with ALL the sisters becoming Itsuki, nice challenge eh. The conversation between Nino and Ichika is really great, on one side we got a girl that is all go to confess to our boy, and on the other side we got a girl that is aching inside with regrets and cowardice. You can feel both of their emotions and feelings on that conversation, and I think it is nicely done. Also Nino is a RUNAWAY TRAIN OF LOVE! Hell yeah. Yotsuba also had a chat with Ichika, and it was a nice moment to cheer up our hopeless romantic. While all this was going on, Futaro is still finding our Fake Itsuki, and he asks for the quints Grandpa for advice. Now for us anime viewers, it's easy because we can tell it from the VA's, but I can't help but wonder how hard it is for some manga readers to figure who is who. The answer is LOVE, learn each minor habits, and their personalities. And now he's using it as one of the Itsukis faces him. At first, Futaro thought it's Ichika, but that one bit of upset and disappointment led him to Miku, which is the Fake Itsuki. So all along the reason for Miku to come at Futaro is because he didn't give her an exchange gift on Valentines...WHAT. (Well White Day exists so...) Not my favorite episode, the pacing is a bit too fast, but I'll take the ongoing developments and character development. Also I'm guessing that Nino is the girl who shoves herself to Futaro in the bell. But it can be anyone folks, we shall stay tuned for the next episode. |

| Guess people who have Itsuki as their best girl had a blast with this episode. So Miku was the fake Itsuki in the end, huh? Her VA did a pretty impressive job, not gonna lie. As for Fuutarou, him sucking this bad at guessing which sister is who is really starting to get annoying and kinda forced. Not to mention that finding out that in the end, he wasn't messing around and actually thought the fake Itsuki was Ichika made me want to punch him in the face so hard. Also, I can't believe the thought of Miku liking him hasn't crossed his mind yet. Hope he buys the girl some choco in return at least. Anyways, if Miku smiles, I smile. Quite decent episode overall. The scene with Ichika and Yotsuba on the rooftop was also pretty wholesome, by the way. |

| Fantastic episode! With a whole lot of Eatsukis this episode lmao. It's definitely easier to tell who they were in the anime thanks to the voices, but it was so hard to tell them apart in the manga. Miku's VA did a good job impersonating Ichika at the end though, like her voice legit almost sounded like Ichika. THE NINO TRAIN WILL NOT BE STOPPED This is the start of Ichika's conquest! I hope they put in the next episode the scenes they skipped since I think those were pretty important, they probably just put the bell scene here of a pretty nice cliffhanger. Really looking forward to the next episode. |
 |
| Wholesome episode |
 |
| sheesh they ended Scrambled Egg Arc quickly, now I'm not sure when the anime will leave off on. Nino always sees the positives in things, even when Ichika tries to send her astray. Miku ending scene was.. mmm |
 |
| Wow that ending scene was powerful... Miku giving up on Fuutarou or not??? Damn I want to say it's Miku that running towards the bell but somehow i feel like it's Nino.. Let's see find out next week... |
 |
| I don't blame him for not being able to tell em apart, but also for not falling in love with any of them since his heart was for some other person. |
 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. |
| Just hope they change the winner. The winner of the manga isn't deserved because of lack of character and chemistry. |
  |
| Miku's big wish for Futaro to see her as an individual before she confesses is so cute. But unfortunately, that slow progress could end up in heartbreak because Nino is taking no prisoners; she wants to see her love come to a conclusion and I respect her for having the guts to be so direct about it! |
 |
| Those white shoes running at the end, I only saw Rena wear those. Ghost winner? Too many people dropping manga comments and spoiler hints around here, it's annoying. |
 |
| Everyone talking about Miku's scene at the end, but I feel like we just saw the moment where Miku lost. Also, while Miku is still #1, Nino is, well, an unstoppable train for sure. She keeps making me like her more. Not looking good for an anime original ending, though. (haven't read the manga, but know the outcome) |
 |
| AWWWWWWWWWW SHIT SO NINO KISSED FUTARO AT THE END |
 |
| Quite a good episode ngl. Play guessing game is definitely fun. You can tell who is who by just listen to their voice and it adapted really well here. Everyone have their own screentime which is also good. They cut out the kiss scene here! I remember correctly from the manga if one of them stole the kiss in front of the bell right ? |
  |
| Miku,twice this episode you very nearly stopped my damn heart! Once,the bath scene with your lewds. Twice with that tackle and that smile at the end. That was a great episode. |
 |
I forgot to mention, I feel sad when I saw Miku crying because Fuutarou the baka could not identify Miku.  |

dlxuniuniu said: For us hearing the voices is like cheating already...knowing who is who. The grandpa is da real MVP, he knows everything and he mentioned Rena as well...and who knows about the last scene...was that her again?! I'm still thinking even more that Futaro may slowly realise his feelings and no longer see the girls as students. Because when he ends up standing under the bell thinking that he can only distinguish the girls with love, he starts stuttering and pauses for a moment as if he were slowly realising what the girls think about him or what he might think about the girls subconsciously |
TrumpMD said: ...Too many people dropping manga comments and spoiler hints around here, it's annoying. For real, they're so annoying as f_ck. I like reading comments about the anime but most of the time I stumble upon unnecessary comments from source readers with ridiculous amounts of complaints like : "...they skipped a lot ...why wasn't that scene included ...they changed the scene ...this is how it was supposed to look like etc" FFS shut the hell up! Have some restraint and respect for those who want to enjoy the anime in an anime forum. Most of the enjoyment I get after watching an episode is to able to discuss and share opinions about it and speculate what might happen next. Unfortunately these forums are littered with whiny opinionated source readers who cast doubt and make us second guess the entire anime's integrity. |
