Beautiful episode, much better than the first in my opinion, the graphic effect is much improved (I didn't experience that "stretched" feeling I had in the first episode) and also the oddities of the plot (like the frogs in the lockers) have definitely decreased , the relationship between Ai and Kaede begins to take shape, I hope it continues like this!

I don't think I'm suited to romcoms. MC just annoys me and every scene just feels way too dragged out. Mie is cute and I love the ridiculously detailed, fluffy hair. Her grouchy look is cute to. Her VA is doing a great job imo. Soundtrack was pretty nice this episode.

People have gotten so used to SoL school romance anime full of girls who have 40 different mental illnesses and being the complete center of attention being the norm that they just can't recognize a truly great one when they see it. Absolute grand slam of an episode.

GoHands calmed down but Komura is still the worst

I have diabetes

I know some don't like the animation, but I find the use of perspective and the varying camera angles to be very interesting. The MC can be very annoying but he is 13 so I guess he would be cringe.

I like it, but the mc is so much irritating that I have a hard time watching some scenes. He freaks out to much about everything. It just feels weird

Very nice episode :)

They went on a date, help hands and he even was feeding her ^^

It's interesting to see how their relationship develops.

An improvement on the last episode honestly, the same aeroplane gag multiple times in a row was certainly a vision and not one I understand same with the cafe warping like we just entered the void but go off gohands! all in all:

I didn't know that people who wear glasses lose half their brains when they take them off. Is that a new trend? glass-brain implants?

If someone ever asks you the definition of exaggeration, throw away your dictionary, show them this anime instead and ask them to focus on their interactions. The animation does feel way more natural, though, gotta give them that.

well said.

Also, the whole thing feels awfully rushed?? it's like, the anime just skips everything in their lives except for the moments when mie does something cute. how much time has passed since the last scene?? we don't even know that. like, bro, komura has a life even when mie isn't around, but eh...

ig it's too hard to just make extra little scenes, for e.g komura getting in the shower before he screamed about the bruises hurting him, komura laying on his bed before getting a message from mie and falling of the bed, mie opening the doors to her house and taking of her shoes after their "date", mie leaving her house in the morning without her glasses and then later on realizing she doesn't have them... these kind of things would be very beneficial for the pacing, it just feels too rushed. like honestly, we don't know anything about these characters except for their personality way the view each other. but it's only the 2nd ep sooo... maybe it'll get better... adding some extra characters other than the male and female lead would be great too.
