| Enjoyed this episode for all the cute Miku moments. Can't stand Nino though. Annoying Tsun character. I hear she gets better but I don't see it happening in the anime. |
 |
| Miku is definitely best girl |

GenesisAria said: People are just ultradumb these days... It used to be pretty standard for people to see through it. It's pretty obvious she's a good girl just going through a moody period, and yet everyone's like "WORST GIRL, WHAT A BITCH!"... I'd say the people trashing her for petty reasons are more the bad people here than the girl who just loves her sisters and doesn't want this weirdo messing with their family life. Her motives are in total earnest, which is the mark of a good person. All these hate is pretty justifiable with how she conducts herself. One way or another everyone has an experience meeting a person like her and honestly no one ever tries to go beyond what they see and just straight up hate on the person. Nino drugged Fuutarou even if it was supposed to be comedic in the 1st episode, she brought it up again this episode and sent a threat to Fuutarou's direction that she won't think twice of pulling the same stunt just to eliminate him from their house. Having good motives doesn't equate on giving one the right to just do what they want without receiving repercussions. The way she lashes out may be a phase but that doesn't mean people should be lenient with that attitude of hers. Hate is not the opposite of love, it's apathy. It's better for her to receive all these hate right now because these will be the seed that will grow on everyone once she reach that part in her character development. |
| Nino has developed a terrible personality because of her seeing her sisters go different directions as they grew up. The episode already gave multiple hints with her close up expressions. Notice how she placed her hand on Miku's back, the sister she had a fight with few minutes before, as they returned back to their apartment. That's the genuine Nino, not the one at face value who seems to bitch a lot. She is just too protective of her sisters but she cannot say it out loud. Deep down she is actually very loving. Imagine if she were to find out what Ichika's been up to! Haha! Well, she probably won't have enough opportunity to redeem herself in the anime because it's just gonna be 12 episodes. The anime is going to adapt the more character introductory chapters with some cliche tropes than the ones that come later down the line that actually made me like the manga so much. Coming back to the best girl of the story i.e. Miku, she is actually the most frustrating one and even she knows it herself. But her strive to improve herself as someone who lacks the charming personality of Ichika, the straightforwardness of Nino, the upbeat personality of Yotsuba, and the determination of Itsuki makes her an extremely adorable character. Ahh~ she makes me want to protect her!  |

| I don't know about you guys, but i seriously can't stand with character personality like Nino, she is so annoying for me, saying people who studying is stupid just makes me shake my head more than before... |
 |
| hahaha this episode is to remain me why I hate Nino so much 😪😪😪 |
 |
| Good episode! Nino managed to ruin Fuutarou study lesson! I am liking Miku even more, she is so adorable! And how cute she is blushign whenever sisters tell her that she have feeling for Fuutarou! Nino vs Miku was really awesome, the food wars was awesome aswell! Nino will be hard for Fuutarou, but i can understand her, she really cares about her sisters, but i would like to see some backstory from Nino to understand her reason! |
 |
welp it's Tusndere Girl Nino's turned to be conquered, and it looks like it ain't gonna be easy. i wonder is she shaves or waxes down her????? So: Nino- tsundere Miku-Kuudere Yotsuba- bakadere Itsuki-tsundere Ichika-Hummm well, I don't think that there is a "dere" word for a whore, cu'z it looks like she is one. |
Rapostrophe said: In my books, no form of hate is justifiable, period ever. The funny thing is how simple these girls are to understand. If i were in Fuutarou's shoes, taming this quintet would be childs' play. Even though she's feisty, i still find her charming like the rest, and her heart is in the right place. Also using some typical household sleeping pills in a mischievous way, while poor behaviour, is ultimately not harmful, as it just makes you drowsy until you fall asleep. We also can't forget, that ultimately, these girls are idiots. Nino can't figure it out, because she too is an idiot. While yes, she has the most debatably negative behaviours, i'm not one of those fools that believes in that "ends don't justify means" crap. Not everything has an easy solution, not everyone is unconflicted. Not everyone is capable of speaking their mind properly, and needs someone keen to help unwind the tangled mess in their mind. As i said before, this didn't used to be much of a problem for anime viewers to grasp, because this principle is demonstrated in almost every nichijou-kei ("slice of life") anime, and is an important factor in understanding people both in fictional worlds and in reality. All these hate is pretty justifiable with how she conducts herself. One way or another everyone has an experience meeting a person like her and honestly no one ever tries to go beyond what they see and just straight up hate on the person. Nino drugged Fuutarou even if it was supposed to be comedic in the 1st episode, she brought it up again this episode and sent a threat to Fuutarou's direction that she won't think twice of pulling the same stunt just to eliminate him from their house.

It's better for her to receive all these hate right now because these will be the seed that will grow on everyone once she reach that part in her character development. That said, your idea of hate to combat apathy so they can later be convinced is not a bad one at all. But gotta remember, most people irl, are even more dim-witted and short-sighted than these girls, and it's highly probable they will either persist their irrational hate-train, or be turned so easy that it's all vapid and superficial for them anyway. shanimebib said: Yeah that's what i mean, she just has troubles admitting to herself, which is essentially a more sophisticated/realistic form of tsundere. She's not my type, but she's not bad, and all the hate is completely uncalled for. Like is aid, people are ultra shallow and short sighted these days, it's sad.Nino has developed a terrible personality because of her seeing her sisters go different directions as they grew up.

Ahh~ she makes me want to protect her! Again it's this state of imperfection that is what appeals, and this is not unlike Nino's or any of the rest, they all have flaws. Yotsuba may seem good to go personality-wise, but i could tell right from the beginning of the series, that she is likely going to take the longest to even realize the subtle problems that lie underneath. |

Yotsuba may seem good to go personality-wise, but i could tell right from the beginning of the series, that she is likely going to take the longest to even realize the subtle problems that lie underneath. Yotsuba already has one of the biggest problems that has been shown in the anime already. She is the polar opposite of Nino which makes her problems far more troublesome than those of someone like Nino's (who is like an open book). So, good on you to foresee that! The fight amongst the quints may seem childish at this point but if you guys can't tell already, they will only get fiercer later on. And then all sorts of unpredictably will be thrown in in the mix. If anyone takes the quints at their face value, they are done for. Those who have been reading this manga are already at their wits end trying to add all the bits and pieces together to come up with theories after theories. And just when we think we have got it down, Negi drops another bit in the mix almost nullifying everything that we had been working on. Ah~ if only Fujiwara Chika was in this anime. We would let her handle this! I will ask the viewers again to pay more attention to the interactions amongst the quints than their interactions with Fuu. This is where Gotoubun really distinguishes itself from our standard harem romcoms. |

| yea, i hate stubborn girls like Nino... 3/5. |
 |
| Damn, not really surprised about people hating Nino. But I do find her to be reasonable. |

CeddyyBearr said: Somehow I ended up in Food Wars! That moment I instantly had to google "Dutch Baby"... I am dutch and I had never heard of it. Appearently it's a German Pancake, the more you know. Either way, eventho Nino's personality sucks, she seems to be a pretty good cook! Unlike Miku, who cooked something that didn't look very appealing. I suppose it still tasted alrght. Eating Dutch Baby right now, i had to try this, lol. It's pretty good. |

| Nino is freaking annoying... Miku for best girl |
| Ok episode. I loved watching Miku. |
 |
Smells like incel spirit! |
What anime is your gif from? I remember seeing this girl somewhere but I forget the anime |
 |
| Miku-chan kawaii <3333333 Her omurice prolly looked bad but tasted g8 :D That blush gave me life <3 I like the name Nino and her character design, but Nino is def annoying and frustrating xD idk how some ppl like tsundere characters so much lol. I can't stand them. Honestly, Futaro's imouto is a model sister lol X) so adorbs and responsible at her young age -^___^- |
| So far so good. I bet Nino is going to be more important later on, she's the kind of character that shows nice development over time and probably will start to like Fuutarou, since she will be getting a lot of attention of him probably, even though I have no reasons to like her I'm excited to see what's next. As for Miku, she's really interesting and cute, best girl so far, but too soon to tell. Dunno about the others. I think Ichika is the hotter, Itsuki has an aura of main character, but I don't know yet. I don't care much for Yotsuba, but she's alright. |
  Grant me one hour on love's most sacred shores To clasp the bosom that my soul adores, Lie heart to heart and merge my soul with yours |
Well, that only for them guys who can't get laid. Jaz saying |
| Nino has a reasonable perspective but of course her attitude and demeanor stink to high heaven. I'm sure she will have a charming arc where her character develops and she learns to like the MC and it'll be just wholesome through and through. And I could not care less. |
| The one who said Ichika is a whore must be crucified and his remainings fed to the pigs. I'm not even team Ichika but I like her. She's like Kanbaru from the Monogatari series. Anyway we all know the actual best girl never wins in this kind of anime. I'm talking about Yotsuba, she's kind and energetic (opposite of Miku who looks like she's about to die). Yotsuba has only had a few scenes but that has been enough for me to decide she's the one. |

 |
| Miku after finishing her omurice TOO PRECIOUS also when Nino said she had feeling for Fuutarou HNNNNNGGGG Nino's eyesight is so poor she can't recognize Fuutarou when he's literally in front of her pretty funny. |
 |
| I was waiting for Fuutarou to say something like "if you're content with being a failure then skip my lessons if you must, just don't drag your sisters down to your level" Needless to say I was disappointed >.> |
| So funny episode. I like this show for no reason and after every episode I can't wait for the next one, maybe cuz the feeling of "how will he teach them at the end?" OR because of some lovely romance with tsundere expressions. |

| Reminder disliking Nino is shit taste. |
 |
| Miku is slowly becoming the best girl, they can't match her xD It will be hard to make Nino study xD |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| Not a fan of Nino. She is annoying. Also, the fanservice scenes gets boring and repetitive. Miku is adorable! |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
| I see, so she's lvl2 monster, 2+ episodes would be needed to clear her out. Still, I like how every other girl still stays relevant, would be weird otherwise. But I wonder how he copes with the situation where every girl loves him in the end, so far it seems Miku is the closest one to him. |
| Right... like if I were to eat the food the one who drugged me made... seeing Miku smiling and blushing when Fuutarou complimented her omurice was adorable tho. And also yeah, I was already wondering when the typical "sorry, I fell over your almost naked body while trying to save you" scene would happen. Absolutely generic and the following scene with Fuutarou being unable to explain how things happened like any normal person didn't make the episode more bearable either. Overall, awful episode featuring an incredibly annoying character. People say she's "best girl" in the manga but clearly I can't understand why... and I couldn't care less about her reasons either so... |
| Nino establishing herself firmly in last place, meanwhile Miku clearly in first with second Yotsuba. Nino is the least cute too. I love how the MC is a real man as below.   |
 |
| The pacing is extremely good to be honest, the focus on the specific sisters sure is also quite nice! Really looking forwards to see what's next. |
 |
| Nino's turn.. Ughh.. Not gonna lie I didn't like her more this EP. Uesugi trying his best to console her yet she shuns him just like that. I get her POV on why she's like that but it's still not my cup of tea. I can confidently say she's my least favorite among the sisters On another note, this was the funniest EP yet. From the cooking battle to the judgement scene, I had a good laugh from it. More importantly though, Miku having some kind of affection for Uesugi and acting all cute while showing it? Yeah she's definitely on top of the sister list for me ~ Next sister up! |
 |
| Speaking as someone with bad vision, Nino not seeing Uesugi enough to distinguish him from a redhaired female (Miku), or even see him at all, without her contacts strains credulity... |
