Senpai is not stupid at all (she has better grades than Yanagin)-- does that mean she actually pretends to be dumb in front of the guys? (The last part was not what I observed among the female students in my Co-ed high school)

As a smart girl myself in real life I observe that intelligence doesn't really matter at all but it's not the trait that will attract boys. It's like an extra bonus if the girl is beautiful and smart as well. Like, "Wow, not only she's nice and pretty, she's also very intelligent!" something like that. |

I expected a more serious discussion on the love flags lol.
So Habara and Mitsuo wore each others' shoes for the entirety of elementary school, eh? Oh bloody hell. And Yoshitake's sister clearly was serious when she was yelling at Hidenori's brother for not noticing her feelings. I found the violence in that scene kinda jarring though. A brilliant episode apart from the somewhat jarring violence from the girls but my favorite skit was definitely the last one. Poor Mitsuo. But Yoshitake himself wasn't exactly a smart kid apparently. In contrary to his playing "the hero". Maybe he played that role for precisely that reason o_o. In any case, the Mangaka sums up my thought on the series.

It was mentioned during the skit when Hidenori flatly told her she was always around during Christmas.

"Being an idiot who doesn't even know common knowledge is what makes high school girls cute!" No Sir, no satire of anime gender stereotypes in this series at all.
Literary Girl continues to deliver huge laughs with every appearance. I thought the balance of style and characters was better for the episode on the whole this week, and the ep benefited from that. But wasn't that Tadakuni's sister in the scene with Hidenori's older brother (Sakurai Takahiro)? In which case the "little brothers" comment seems odd.

Just watched episode 7.
Awww, I feel really bad for Literature Girl now The first half of this episode was pretty boring and not that funny, but the Literature Girl scene saved the day! And the scene right after that one with the teacher looking at what the students wanted to do for their future was excellent And poor Mitsuo as well XD

Literature Girl was good as always, high point was when she started crying. Liked that the guy had a bandaid ready in his jacket pocket.
Such a pure maiden in love is rare nowadays in anime. What was he talking about 'glaring at her' or what not, did it skip over a segment? Don't remember that happening.

As chaos2frozen pointed out, her "our lil' bros" made complete sense because she was replying to the older brother of Hidenori.

That, or she feels that her brother is so immature that she might as well be her little brother despite being older

Literature girl why are you so funny! I used write stupid stuff like "I don't want to be a lawyer." or I want to be a "Grim Reaper" on questionnaires like those asking what I want to be in the future. The teacher would usually laugh it off though.
