Another nice episode. I was slightly disappointed we didn't learn anything new about Haru's complicated relationship with her brother, but this will come in due time.

Haru finally managed to become popular at school, but his short temper got the best of him once again. Even if he was not in the wrong this time (nor the previous times), he really needs to learn how to restrain himself. He beat that guy to a pulp.

As soon as I heard her voice, I thought to myself: this character is going to be important. I expect her to get involved with the gang soon.

It seems that both Haru and Shizuku have complicating and mysterious brothers

Kirarakim · 2012-10-22, 17:34

So I got the feeling from this episode that Haru got in a fight on Sasayan's (I can never remember his name & he's the one I like most so far) behalf in middle school.

And I also expect the glasses girl to join the group.

DXMichael · 2012-10-22, 18:29

Ooo, I liked episode 3. It shows the many different kind of Haru's there are in that one body and all of his emotions pretty well. I felt a little sorry for him when he received negativity after doing the right thing (Just abit more rougher than usual though

)

sikvod00 · 2012-10-22, 18:35

While Haru may be a nice person inside, his violent outbreaks still makes him dangerous and a loose cannon. It's easy to brush it off when it's against a person who "deserves" it (imho, what he did to that guy was brutal), but I can easily see him hurting a close friend like Sasayan because of a stupid misunderstanding. I guess the only aspect about this that I like is that he doesn't distinguish between male and female foes. And by "like" I mean it's at least different because he isn't your typical cliche delinquent guy who has a soft spot for girls. Haru will shamelessly take on a middle school girl if she gives him the evil eye.

Excorsism · 2012-10-22, 19:06

Good episode but, I'm a little disappointed in them cutting out some of the summer break chapter. That and they seem to be cutting out Sasayan's interactions with the group as a whole. Darn it, Brains Base!

Sackett · 2012-10-22, 19:53

No doubt Haru is not just a "delinquent that does nothing".

I think they're doing a good job of showing just how dangerous a guy like Haru is, while still showing that he has a kind heart. That's not enough though without some self-control.

Also... his brother is kind of creepy.

Haru is much weirder, but not nearly as creepy as the brother.

D-KLAC · 2012-10-22, 20:58

ep.4
more hmm on he said & she said going on yea wonder to happen next?

give shizuka telling haru be nice well sorta make him a chick magnet for a while til whole bullying a girl haru had to beat up the bully.

Awww that's unfortunate, I really like Sasayan. :<

Spoiler for ep4:

Kaoru Chujo · 2012-10-23, 01:20

Ep4 was enjoyable, but not my favorite. Tomatsu Haruka, however, was excellent again as Shizuku. Especially when she drops a comment in that tight, flat voice. Wonderful character. Tomacchan has never really been a favorite of mine, but credit where credit is due: she is doing a great job here.

DragoonKain3 · 2012-10-23, 11:02

Not gonna lie, but all I remember is HanaKana with the meganekko.

HandofFate · 2012-10-23, 12:00

wow, tons of ground seem to have been covered in episode 4.
So much development and time passed in the episode alone. I like that Mizutani isn't just waiting for Haru to come around, she's making small efforts in her own way to close the distance towards eachother.

She knows she's attracted to him, and I like that she's being assertive while keeping her own conservative philosophy on a lot of things.

Natsume is a great character, she brightens up the scene whenever she shows up, she's also great to listen to.

I'm sure her seiyuu would be thrilled to hear you say that, since she is making her debut in this show. TANEZAKI Atsumi. blog. official site.

She started her blog in August. On the eve of this show starting she wrote that she was finally beginning the career she had wanted since elementary school, and was so happy she could almost cry.

~Yami~ · 2012-10-23, 17:56

this episode really make my day.... it has decent comedy and enough emotional moment inside
I don't know why but Shizuku-Haru's interaction is really sweet because of their honesty and lack of love experience... like how Shizuku ask Haru for a date with plain face....

now I'm expecting they will explain Haru's family in next episode...

ginger02 · 2012-10-24, 00:14

I think this is my go-to shoujo of the season along with Say I Love You. I love the art style and mix of romance and comedy and life.

Azuma Denton · 2012-10-24, 00:48

Ah KanaHana is returning again with her Meganeko voice...
That character reminds me of Anri from DRRR!!!

Tomatsu, as usual, doing such a great job here.

I really like the work she's doing in this show. The show is likeable enough already, and I feel like Natsume's voice just makes the show for me. It's perfect for this role and I'm definitely going to look out for this seiyuu.

ookamigirl · 2012-10-29, 13:57

Poor Natsu... being sick just got her isolated.
Haru still hiding from his big brother Yuzan *sigh*
Their relationship is really weird.
I think he's hanging around Shizuku just to piss off Haru.
Well, that's in addition to scaring off Shizuku from Haru.
It's totally ROFL when those two get bright red faces.
Looks like class rep is developing some feelings for Haru as well.
Shizuku is about to get some competition.

garbage · 2012-10-29, 15:06

hmm natsume & sasayan (o niwa- san ^^ ) ninja looks so cool at that short skit/preview/troll/ at the end, more kanahana/incho interaction but still short guess next episode will focus on her .

both here and in sukitteiinayo the girls carry the show i think ( MC pairing), in both shows there seems to be something off with the guys preventing them to be likeable. on the other hand the girls are just great.

Don't want you dropping dead suddenly one day! Even if it was a girl, I'd be fairly angry if someone dropped a dumbbell on me. Be more panicked though. And in the meantime... Oh it's you again, Hanazawa.
