It feels like the relationship between Kazuya and Chizuru seem like they are on the cusp of something important, would be a shame to end now!


Based on some articles I've seen there is no official announcement for season 2. However, considering TMS Entertainment is known to have anime with multiple seasons, there is a chance. According to one article, there is enough for 3 seasons. Also, according to a different article, "if things go smoothly for the production team, expect to see the second season of Kanojo, Okarishimasu in summer 2021."

One of the episodes that actually gave me hope for Kazuya, even if just for a little bit. Good friend he was, and he's still pretty confused about his feelings. This show is still trash, but honestly I like trash so I can't even complain.

Can't wait for the next episode, all this talk about how "Sumi chan is best girl" has got my expectations high for her. I've always been a Ruka stan, even before watching this anime, so it'll be hard to convince me otherwise.

This show is so frikin weird. It went from Relatable Drama (gf breaking up,etc) to Girl Abuse to NTR...

They should add NTR tag in MAL.

And is it me or suddenly this series became the Idolmaster?

Even if Kazuya comes up as cringy, at least he made amends to his friend and explained his slippery situation that happens to him. Can't wait for Sumi's appearance <3

Yay they mentioned Sumi!
Sumi finally enters the show. Too bad it will only last 2 episodes ..

In their last conversation they mention Mami-chan!? I'm not sure if I would like her to appear in the next episodes.

Chizuru finally discreetly giving hints of her feelings towards Kazuya. Hopefully Kazuya isn't too dumb to pick up on those hints.

Last thing I'll say is, keep this positive bro attitude up Kazuya! And maybe there is still hope!

Now, Chizuru just pointed out a very clear condition about her own feeling. She care Kazuya so much there. Its a clearance! Kazuya just did not even understand her simple statement on that balcony. Obviously it was, god dammit! Lmao.

The trigger for the next girl appearance was just a simple humour for me. Chizuru surely a kind hearted girl. No wonder that glasses guy so sudden to cheer up his broken heart. If only he knew the situations with Ruka, obviously he would be in rage again with Kazuya. But seriously, dude. Why you even mad in the first place? Its just an obvious conspiracy, and yet you still followed the flow of it. Lmao.

Okay, the expected message that happened in the first sequence was so understandable. Its to develop Kazuya's characterization into a better person. I honestly thing, its the best way, and the best result for Kazuya. While this shit show just threw up their way too forced to built Kazuya into a liking guy. I am glad, this episode was pretty decent at that direction. While in the other side of the mountain, Chizuru just finally opened up her heart to Kazuya.

Its just weird, still, its happening! The moment just too good to be true, but its still happen smoothly! She, finally made a bold decision, to showed a caring side of her, to trusting Kazuya more than before. Holy shit, at last. Its not just her shady shit again, but its just real! Oh, man, its getting serious. But ofc the show wanted end it fast, because there was still one girl to convoluted the whole situations. Lmao.

A shyness girlfriend. I can't wait to see shit happening in the next episode, finally! So, yeah, lets see how long Sumi was not just simply, felt in love with her new client, Kazuya. I really hope. Enough with Ruka bitchy! And i don't even mention Mami. She just served as a plot devices to made the relations between Chizuru and Kazuya to develop more than before, nothing far from that line. With all of that, i thank you very much with this. Finally, a decent episode for me xd

Good episode, Ruka's sentient ribbon still gets me. Well Kazuya got to hit 2 birds with one stone, he managed to cheer up his friend and also tell the truth to Kuri. That is a step in the right direction. Though he was definitely stalking them the whole date lmao. We finally going to see Sumi next episode.

it was already a pretty meh episode & then these 2 losers just start talking about the girls' legs and boobs......k........ dumb virgins.... i hate how the boys always look like they are about to internally combust & explode when a girl gets close to them. kuri is so unlikeable. all of them are. kuri was at least self-aware towards the end of their date.

can't wait to see sumi next week! she's really cute

Kazuya, you're a bro but I find it weird that the person you love, you're just letting it away with your friend. It was weird but gotta respect you for that.
Also, seems like Chizuru has started to like Kazuya a bit more.

we finally get the last (possibly best) girl next week but with just 2 episodes of screentime? (not counting this week's 1 second bath scene) And the focus on these last 2 episodes seems to be mixed with Mami probably taking up half of next week and for the last episode, it will be all the girls included (just guessing here)? Seems rather unfair to Sumi but then again, this anime is clearly focused on showing the development of MC and Chizuru as a couple (despite how the ending might try to make you think that all four girls are equal).

That was a really strange way for Kuzuya to reveal to Kuri that Chizuru is a rental girlfriend... and just really awkward. BUT I guess he did it with good intentions so that's one point in his favour.

I actually think Kuri is so sweet and I hope he gets a girlfriend who really cares for him.

Kazuya actually made a GOOD decision this time. He is a good friend; no denial of that.

ACTUAL BEST GIRL COMING NEXT WEEK. Ugh finally.

I've been reading the manga; Sumi is freaking adorable. I like her the most (as a character, not as a love interest) because




For those who are confused about Mami's omission: that's the anime being weird. She was cut from episode 09 but she was SUPPOSED to be there. Idk. Saving time, I guess.

But she does not disappear from the series, no no.

This episode shows just how much of a good guy kazuya actually is. Helping out a friend with a very similar problem that he had to his own detriment just because he feels personally responsible for causing it.

Although Kazuya can be pretty scummy and super cringy sometimes he has a good heart deep down and just needs to build up his character to the point where that is showing.

Although the date between Shun and Chizuru was pretty awkward to watch, I'm glad that Kazuya has become a somewhat better person at least.

Overall, an average episode for me. Looking forward to being introduced to Sumi in the next episode.

Finally, Kazuya did something great now. helping his friend escaping despair by lending Mizuhara went a date with shun (kinda weird tho). you got my respect now for once.

also.. what? he'll become some kind of dating coach next?

No idea why everyone was hype for Sumi. but I'll look forward to it.

As if Ruka's not irritating enough, her being an inclusion into Kazuya's workplace is just an exercise in further frustration.

Kazuya's clique questioning about Kuri's girlfriend movements, and Kazuya has known it all too well how it has affected his feelings, but obviously for business purposes that Ruka just blatantly brushed it all aside just to get close to him. What a heart-breaker.

This episode is definitely one of Kazuya's shining moments to appease Kuri by lending him Chizuru and lead him into understanding the whole rent-a-girlfriend secret business, as a "Bros before hoes" move that's brillant.

And also, is Chizuru giving up hints that she likes Kazuya, not just for business?

Chizuru's plea for Kazuya to flex up ANOTHER rental girlfriend...and we know WHO it is that's coming. TOTAL HYPE for shy girl Sumi!

Honestly, I think that was the weirdest way to help out a friend, but if it worked then I guess it doesn't matter too much.

I am really excited to be introduced to Sumi though, she seems like the most likeable of the four girls in my personal opinion and from what I have seen.
Have a great day!

Didn't like this episode that much. I hope the final girl to be introduced will make my impression of this show better.

Really looking forward to see Sumi in the next episode, especially since she's voiced by Takahashi Rie (one of my fav female seiyuus). And idk why but I'm also excited for more Mami screentime lol.
