| Yikes, bad weather ruined what could've been a perfect day to the zoo. On the other hand, I love how devoted Shiori is in this show and how motivated she wants to help others. The same could even be said for Ichirou who greatly cares about Shiori that he risks his own health. Also impressed by the amount of personalities the kids are getting in this series. |
 |
| After the brief romantic confession from Goshiki, Ichiro and his siblings are looking forward to the zoo...if only without the bad weather, which dampened their spirits, and it's back to work refining on what his editor recommends on the feedback. All to the point of emotional damage for Ichiro, being left hanging on Shiori's reply which manifested his mind much. Goshiki thinking the same to improve her manga craft, and unsurprisingly, she's also stuck with Ichiro on her mind to the point of love overflowing. How she managed to subconsciously confess to Ichiro is a feat, though what to do from here, it's exactly something out of a Shoujo manga. With Fumio and Machi retreating to their games and Goshiki wanting to originally go to the library but can't also, looks like fate intertwined the newly established couple and his siblings to go out together. Though Goshiki tried a hand at the fortune cards that Machi has that Ichiro made for her, Goshiki tearing a card just sounds like disaster. With Goshiki off to the library, Ichiro makes a run for it knowing that said girl herself may be unfamiliar with the area. But in reality, Goshiki is fine and all, and the absentminded girl is safe on Ichiro's side. Redrawing the tarot cards, and the stage is set for the re-enactment of the fortune teller booth with Machi, though what she wants to be when she grows up, the wannabe fortune teller still needs some education. In return, this gives both Ichiro and Goshiki some ideas, though his dad's planetarium used as a crystal ball is one of intrigue. Ichiro, knowing that marriage isn't on the cards for raising both Fumio and Machi, he still wants to break up with her knowing the fact that family is important to him. Apart from Goshiki's troublesome clan effect that inflicts pain on him, him having to finally return the confession to Goshiki in the dead of night has been a time forthcoming. Take it slow, Ichiro and Goshiki. One step at a time. |

| Dude's having a legit mental dilemma, because a smoking hot blonde girl showed up one day at his doorstep, did all the work for him, and one day told him she's in love with you ... what xD Surely, from now on the dynamics of the house are gonna be interesting, lol. Also, arent ya an alien/god/moon princess or something ? Can't you like do something about the rain .. or the card, on that matter. |
 |
| It's great to see Goshiki and Ichirou confess their feelings for each other and it will be interesting to see how it develops further |
| so they do start dating reminds me of "Horimiya" in terms of wholesomeness but the princess thing makes it rather unique anyways i was glad they did not drag it for 12 episode |
 |
| Glad that they already became a couple, look forward to how things progress with their relationship plus there's still that supernatural stuff as well. |
| Aww man I love how much Ichiro’s siblings look up to him. It’s so sweet. “I love watching you draw” that was too adorable!! Also mad respect for the “I don’t have time for a relationship because my siblings are my priority rn” . But shiori just too cute and OP and he folded lmao I can’t blame him. I’m glad they’re dating slow and steady now and looking forward to how their relationship progresses. They both compliment each other so well. Great episode! |
 |
| Something tells me the mother will come in to spoil the fun, but that's purely speculation based on the fact she wasn't to happy with her daughter leaving the island. The card part was nice seems like they have their dreams. Anyway i hope the couple will do fine but you never know. |
| I chuckled a bit when she mentioned the 10 volumes of falling in love happening faster. I'm glad they are finally moving forward. |
 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. |
| Marginally better than the previous episode, the anime series is still in the "meh" zone, leaving me wondering why it lacks the magic of the manga. |
| They really threw me for a loop with the confession here lol, I thought for a second despite Goshiki confessing at the end of last episode that things wouldn’t progress much between them and it would end up getting brushed off, and to push that further Ichiro made his confession sound like he was turning her down at first but I was really surprised when he turned it around at the end lol, and Goshiki had such a good reaction. So I guess that means they’re already dating at episode 4, love to see it, really excited to see how close they get as this goes on. And I also really loved the bit with the siblings, Machi went from being upset about the zoo, as well as her tarot card getting ripped, to getting the full service with a whole new set of cards and a fortune telling booth plus an outfit to look the part, seeing her happy made me really happy lol, these siblings are just two precious. |
| This show is hardly revolutionary or has extraordinary production values, but it incredibly charming and just exudes such a chill vibe. It is easy to like the characters and just follow them about their daily routines. I do like that not all love stories have to be 10 volumes of will-they, won't they ambiguity about their true feelings. (That bit of meta humor really made me laugh. Very appropriate for a show where the production of shojo manga is front and center.) |
| they became a couple pretty early, i thought he was turning her down from the way that conversation began but it went well. love goshiki's reactions, interested to see how this goes from the next episode onwards. |
 |
| They were looking forward to the zoo but the bad weather ruined the day for them basically. Kuga is going crazy to the point of him imagining things (like a rubber duck talking lolz). Shiori is totally obsessed with Kuga, to the point of her drawing him 5-6 times. It was nice to see that Shiori still wanted to help because she broke a card. Shiori went out in the pouring rain to get the things needed and after some time passed, Ichirou went looking for her because he was concerned. They had fun making the cards though and it was cute to see Machi playing as a fortune teller. Well the love is real now, that was some fast acceptance. Ichirou and Shiori are officially dating. |

| I legit thought that Ichirou was going to reject Shiori at first until he didn't. It looks like he would've hurt himself worse if he really would've rejected her too. At least by him saying what he did I think Shiori will help out wherever she can like with the younger siblings as she has already shown. I'm sure more weird things or obstacles will arise with Shiori's supernatural abilities plus I don't believe her family knows what happened. |
| Eyy, I like how they showed Goshiki ghosting her lines before drawing. It's a real thing artists do that I learned recently. LET'S GOOO Episode 4 and dating already! I thought he will reject her at first. It would've been so disappointing. Niiice! DeRickz said: What is Reiwa effect?love it whenever the Reiwa era effect strikes in an anime |

| Just waiting for the interruption in this happiness, you know representative's from the island will come seeking her out, maybe the end of next episode after an amazing Zoo visit/day |
| I'm finding myself progressively more disappointed by this show. Very little seems earned and it's also rather juvenile. Not only is "The Dangers in My Heart" way ahead of it in just pure believable romantic progression it's also pulling away in the maturity of its handling of the story. |
| Quantum ille canis est in fenestra |
| Kuga is such a nice big brother. He's doing his best for his little siblings. And, the relationship between our both main characters is growing more special with each episode. Love is in the air and the confession was cute. |
 |
| Unfortunately I'm out. I thought I'd get attached to the characters after 4 episodes (even a little) but halfway through the episode I had to give up. It's not like I hate it or that it's bad. It's just average at best for what it seems like at the beginning and I can't help but think that there's no emotion, no life, no personality in these characters which is a shame because the premise would have great potential. Sadly I'm just not feeling it and after forwarding to them agreeing to date I feel like it's time to leave because honestly I couldn't really see how they bonded in any way :/ |

You're the light shining over The black and gloomy nights So long I've been waiting To run into your arms Oh, my only one desire You're the one I need Through the thousand years ~ Evermore "Midnight Sun" by AleXa |
| A cute and wholesome show. Why does the main guy have to annul the engagement in a panic? |
 |
| Eh this episode was okay mostly except for the ending scene. Wasn't expecting a confession. |
 |
| ^ Same, everything feels kind of stale, but didn't expect there to be a confession that fast in the last part. |
 |
| Hell yes, confession time! |
 |
| Glad they became an official couple in Episode 4 but seriously, they need to do something about that pact. Dude was about to get some serious disease just for confessing. |
| SO CUTE!!! Goshiki is so adorable this episode in particular! Her blushing and that reaction at the end had me grinning so hard. Had the exact same reaction as her when he suddenly confessed when it seemed like he was rejecting her. This and Yamada are definitely my favourite anime this season. They're so good! |
| Yuritopia FTW!!!!!!!!! BANZAI TO YURI !!!!!!!!!!!! |
| I really thought he would still reject her. Congratulations! ♡♡ Fumio really only said a few words but it was all adorable. |
 |
| Both confessed each others this early on. Nice, it's already something different from most romantic anime out there |
| Best series of all time? Gormiti of course |
| This all feels very unnatural to me, is like they're trying to force this romance down our throats for pure convenience, and all because the guy touched that fckng magical sting. Anyway, this is tolerable at best. |
  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 |
| The part where she said "So much for my beloved pattern of neither side knowing the other loves them. And building up a relationship over ten volumes" I laughed quite a bit because its true and happens too much. |
