Episode 2 is chapter three of the manga in anime form, and very well done, indeed. Very faithful to the source, including Mitty's barb at her math-challenged father, as well as the half-price sticker offender, and, of course, her confession. If anyone felt that the pacing of the anime was still fast, it's due to the pacing of the manga itself, which the anime was simply reflecting.

My favorite bit of the episode, much improved over only two frames in the manga, was Mitty and Haru quick-stepping away from a Asako vomiting on the sidewalk.

On the other hand, like others, it did seem to me that that confession was pretty quick out of the gate for someone who had never had any friends, let alone a boyfriend.
