| I would say that was a nearly perfect adaptation for the most part, the budding romance was consequently progressed with lots of sweet moments and some more or subtle fanservice. I was quite impressed that the people working on it were able to keep the quality of the narration on a very high level. The anime managed to show their growing romantic relationship with a comfortable pace. In the last quarter the story got sidetracked a lot by the fear of getting exposed as a couple in the class, what totally annoyed me, it was just painful to watch . They even were more desperate to hide any signs of a closer relationship than in the old class. What is the big idea when everyone knew it from the start. Surely the idea of getting set in the spotlight as a couple is deadly embarrassing for teenagers at this age, but hey they actually should be happy to have eachother. Fortunately they didn't completely forget what the show is all about, the small moments between the two of them, still that was often paired with several distracting events, that ruined the atmosphere in my opinion. We got a sweet confession, but even that was partially sidetracked by Anna's teenage actor career. I give a shit about Anna being a model, actor or a damn astronaut, it's just an insanely silly plot device since the beginning. Aside from all the dsistractive stuff I had a lot of fun watching that, it has adorable characters, relateable dialogs and actions. Anna's family was fun, Ichikawas's family was fun, especially Kana is the best big sister. |

| Guess this episode played out as expected, except for two things: No confirmation for the audition yet and no real kiss. When this season started, I though it would be even better than the first one, but it also had some weaker episodes in the middle. Overall still a great show, certainly one of the best romance anime I've ever watched. Both MCs are a joy to watch together and just so wholesome and cute. I really need a 3rd season to see them officially going out and actually kiss each other. But the way this season ended, I fear that this will be the last we've seen of BokuYaba. 9/10 |
| while i still enjoyed it i felt it was rushed. why they added the class reshuffle only a few eps before it ended was too fast. they couldve added filler stuff and stretched out some stuff. hopefully theyll take a slower approach later on |
| anime/manga version of steam would be awesome - https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1625396 |
| Top Tier Romance. Definitely one of the best I have seen this year. |

| 26th August 2024, 23:35 IST. This is a series I will forever carry with me in my sorrowful heart. For this is not just an anime, it's an emotion that profoundly resonated with many of us fans. Dangers in My Heart, will forever be, one of the topmost rom-com animes I've ever watched in my life. |
If you choose to do only what you know, you'll never experience the joy of being able to do something you couldn't before.  |
| And to think I almost dropped this show after the first 5 or so episodes on season 1 which I thought were painfully dull... show really picked from that point onwards and season 2 just carried that momentum over. |

| @theblur Bro would've missed out on a gem. Many people tend to do that, and they miss out on masterpieces. |

| @polnalyubvi @mob_zero You two should watch this gem if you loved Roshidere! This might sound unlike of me and might sound different from how you usually know me - especially me being an LN reader, but BokuYaba is objectively far better than Roshidere in terms of everything you can think of. I am unbiased in my verdicts. It was even my most favorite rom-com earlier this year before I started reading the Roshidere LN. Despite not being as good objectively, I still enjoyed Roshidere far more than any other romcom (this is debatable because back when Ultra Romantic was airing, 'twas all I could think of. I was super excited and overjoyed when the final episode came out. Good times.). It was the Russian of Alya that hooked me. Had it not been for that, I would have never been as invested into the series. Still, Love Is War; The Dangers In My Heart; Roshidere - They're all a 10/10 in my book. Wouldn't be doing justice to them if I were to compare one another. |

| Can't give it a 10 because I just can't believe that 13-14 years olds would act like that. |
| Overall enjoyed their progression from strangers to lovers! Great series! |

| Ichikawa confessed first but he didn't have a chance to ask her out, as Kankan was hunting them lol. The library was the perfect spot for them to continue their heartfelt conversation. Anna's confession was very heartwarming, it really shows how precious Ichikawa is to her. Love how they handled the development of the characters in this series, especially Ichikawa. This series is probably in my top 3 romcoms for now. I want to see more of them but I'd still be satisfied if this is the ending we get. Saw this coming before I started this season, it's a 10/10. |

KANLen09 said: OH WELP, Ichikawa is in a whole deal of trouble hiding in the girls' bedroom. But this is not the only issue, as the girls have their usual girls' talk about which boys they like, which for Yamada, is a clear taboo. And already, she's almost violating his virginity lols, much less privately kissing and the adult feel to have sex under the futon...which raises suspicions. Thank God for Kanzaki to bail Ichikawa out of the girls' room, though hanging outside the window like a ghost is not ideal lols. Either way, the school trip continues, and the secret of the Torii as foretold by Kanne to scoop out potential couples, it's not her words, but Yamada did take Ichikawa by the lead to have their private time alone, talking about the audition which Yamada is just too fixated on, much less being focused on the school trip to have fun with the rest. Ichikawa, ranting his word that he's pretty much the same as her, going from a monochrome to a coloured world where friends filled his life, as well as his fated partner: Yamada, where the mundane becomes special. Ichikawa giving a push to Yamada to go to the audition, which is followed by Chihiro, both friends really support her to the end. Too bad that Kanzaki and Hara are not an item. Ichikawa's family calling him for trip souvenirs whereas Yamada managed to make it to her auditon, he just can't leave her alone until he reaches home, which he goes to their usual place: the school library and snacking away like her usual. As for the results, nothing else matters much than her love for him. With a kiss that doesn't feel real as much as reality is, Ichikawa has decided to take the plunge, starting a relationship with Yamada. CONGRATULATIONS to Kyotaro Ichikawa and Anna Yamada, the unrequited couple of the season for making a blast. Season 2...has completely blown out Season 1 in comparison, AND I'M NOT KIDDING. What a sequel that improves just upon everything that Season 1 has offered. It only gets better from here on out...in the manga. Yeah, that scene where Ichikawa was stuck in the girls room with Yamada was definitely not good for him. But it was very interesting, and like most people, I too thought he was gonna get caught! But then Kanzaki did bail him out, by that whole bedsheet swinging act. He was definitely going a bit too far there, though I do definitely understand his desires about wanting to take a peek. I mean, he is a teenage boy after all. And I think that’s the one thing that I really do like about this series, is the fact that it has a really natural feel to it, without being boring either. As someone else said, in the previous episode discussion, these are just the sorts of things that teenage boys and girls do during times like these. And I was really glad to see it, though, like I said, the other elements in the story still made it interesting. And while Yamada definitely is quite jealous at times, it’s not overbearing (most of the time) let alone real nasty. It is quite comical when she does it actually. In other words, she really does have a very good personality! And the visuals in this last episode or two were absolutely outstanding! Especially the sunset visuals, where combined with the CGI was absolutely breathtaking! It’s a great way to end such a great series such as this! 10/10 |
| ♥️ immediate favourite. Now I miss this show. |
| WISHED I COULD ALSO GET TRANSPORTED TO A WORLD FULL OF MAGIC And DUNGEONS, please take me there too if you could ( ◜‿◝ )♡ |
| Just watched the English Dubbed version, and it was a great show. Better than RAG than I could ever hope, sorry guys. Kyo's growth as a character alongside with Anna's character is a wonderful thing to see in this series. Two seasons with mostly pure hearted scenes, and at the end, truthful confessions between the two? 🫣 It can't be better than that, could it? 😳 We finally got another solid romance, but the adult jokes were rather weird and uncomfortable, it was still a nice series. P.S. I will definitely miss the new characters this season (see attached image). Fortunately, they failed to "ship" them. Btw, I'm rather fond of the blonde girl, definitely a klutz character that's rather interesting if given her own spotlight. But since this series is all about the two MCs, it's rather saddening to see her fade away just like that.  |

| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |

| @CrazyButNot4U comparing this peak romance to rag is disrespectful, this anime is literally the best new gen romance. Also fyi the sub version is way much better. |
| It was one of the best romance animes I've ever seen. The anime was full of emotional scenes. One of the reasons I prefer anime to movies is that movies usually mix love with sex and lust and feed it to people. Still, anime usually portrays pure and innocent love ( if we don't consider ecchi animes). The development of Ichikawa's feelings for Yamada was portrayed very well. That is, Ichikawa, as a character who hated Yamada and had no feelings for her, turned into someone who fell in love with her over time. However, the negative point was that this was not seen with Yamada. That is, it seemed that Yamada was interested in Ichikawa from the very first episode and only as the anime progressed, her feelings deepened, which was a flaw in the anime's story in my opinion. I wish the anime had shown when Yamada started to develop feelings for Ichikawa. Of course, this may be explained in the manga. If anyone has read the manga, I would appreciate it if you could tell me if there is any mention in the manga of how Yamada became interested in Ichikawa. |

| WOWZA, this whole episode had my heart racing. Kyo's confession has to be the best I've seen (or can think of...all I can think about at the moment is this though). The magnitude of his development + the careful nurturing of his bond with Anna are what made this pay off so incredible. The directing of this series is so phenomenal too. The way the picture zones in on Kyo's tear strewn face as he's confessing made it feel so direct and felt like I was both giving & receiving that confession. If the chocolate hand holding from S1 melted me, then this scene made me totally evaporate. Anna's follow-up confession was so adorable too. Her little peck on the cheek & giggling was just incredibly girly. Makes me glad their lips didn't touch to savor how innocently & carefully this wonderful duo has been shaping up. It was always incredibly heartwarming seeing how basically everyone around them was cheering them on. It took away needless drama & focused everything on the inevitable but oh so satisfying joint confessions. Even Adachi's duel with Kyo was well handled because it was never about him trying to win over Anna, but about losing with dignity (or shame, given it's Adachi). While I consider Kaguya: Love is War to be peak romcom for its over the top theatrics, I would say BokuYaba takes it to the opposite extreme with excellent subtlety. Just like at the end of S1, I noticed Kyo's eyes were once again brimming with life. Perhaps even more so this time, as the journey he's embarked on since first coming to terms with his personal disappointments has been that much more grand. I really do appreciate how the point isn't that Anna is at the center of everything, but rather that Anna has been the gravity that has brought Kyo's perspective into orbit. 9.5+ Edit: One other thing I really wanted to mention was how Kyo's adrenaline faded away and he missed his chance to talk to Anna the night before. It felt far more realistic as mustering up the courage to try for a confession again is even harder. I definitely did not expect the confession to take place there and without the same theatric build-up that had been occurring towards the end of the last episode. |
