I think I understand why the drama has less punch than expected. This is a romantic comedy, but for one reason or another the reason for Rikka chuunibyou is on the dramatic side. So what they try to do is kept the drama short and more symbolic. I for one think that seeing how Rikka view that fight is better than seeing Touka just keep hitting her. Make no mistake, I still think that the story for the drama part is weaker than I'd like. But I think I see why it turned out this way.
After that though it's all great stuff. The romance is coming along nicely. Rikka is certain but unaware of her feeling, and Yuuta is awared but isn't sure of his feeling. I really like every little interaction they did that just keep moving them another step closer, but not quite there yet. Maybe it's because of my personal background, but I much prefer this kind of romantic story over the just-confess-and-kiss-already that many seems to be asking for. This is the type of stories than put a smile on my face, not a palm on my forehead. |

My personal bias says "the less drama the better for me" while some posts on this while forum are more the opposite (current episode of Sakurasou Pet-na kanojo)

so rikka went emotional delusion attack on her sister give her sister just knock slap sense that can't change past & try to accept reality cue yuuta stop the battle cue rikka running away.
yuuta follow rikka to train back home while rest doing fireworks, back rub, & oh tomoki jr failed try alone time with kumin. so yuuta & rikka back home but rikka can't enter her home so spend the night at yuuta with looking his weapons, have food, hand sign draw, & look like rikka is slowing fallen for yuuta?

Touka needs to go harder on Rikka next time. lul
And I know I'm probably the only one who thinks this, but the development for Yuuta x Rikka just feels so weird to me. It's like I don't even want it to happen, even though I, and probably everyone else, knew from the beginning that it would happen. |

For me the ep was very well done - didn't mind the insert song, I thought it fit into the overall picture very nicely.
I gave the ep a 8 out of 10 vote. Yes - Rikka is kawaii, but I found myself in a way feeling empathy for her sister as well. She is obviously hurting as well.

I had a high expectation watching the preview and it blew it away being a lot better.
Rikka always amazes me in a lot of ways. I think my otome heart was melting with the RikkaxYuuta scenes. Especially when she was watching (Romeo&Juliet?) and afterwards how cutely shy Yuuta was. The whole "Don't go..." gets me everytime <3 Plus the whole "Yuuta scent" scene followed by her "doki doki" moments trying to sleep. Finally the very scene, when she went into Yuuta's room, I had such an otome moment wanting her to give Yuuta an unknow kiss. But it could be she is just admiring him and wondering what these feelings are. Or she's going to draw on him again XD

very good episode really liked it. Started out really sad, some difference > before it was really funny and the fights were cool whenever Rikka goes on her chu2 battles, but this time it was so sad & tragic,especially since the fight still looked cool. Liked how Yuuta stood up for Rikka there. good thing too since I felt that it was kinda getting violent and out of hand.
2nd part seems to be the beginning of romance between the two, it's kinda cute how they were having those feelings but not knowing what it is due to inexperience. Rikka was especially cute there. Everything tho is still against the background/atmosphere of Rikka's problems. My only concern is, the transition from those tragic feeling of family loss to romance in one episode can be a bit jarring(?) or questionable. In-universe it makes you question Is yuuta just feeling this way because of pity, and for rikka just another form of escape>those would not be good developments IMO. in way the developments seem to reflect those points a bit. Well maybe the show would address those issues later,might even be part of the plot. All in all GOOD Episode |
