I was hoping we could get through the show without two main characters liking the same guy. Dang it!

And yeah, Saegusa is a big creep.

Someone is getting cucked hardcore.

So the dreaded love triangle finally appears. Usually I'm annoyed when this happens because its pointless when we know what'll happen but with Okada you never really know where it's going to go, though at least with Okada you know it's always a positive ending for everyone involved.

Niina seriously needs a better mentor though.

Kanon · 2019-08-19, 10:44

I hope Niina will successfully NTR Kazusa.

Haak · 2019-08-19, 13:20

Wait what? Wouldn't that require Kazusa going out with Izumi first?

Not really. What matters are her feelings.

The wonders of the morphing of words, perhaps you can say.
NTR these days are sometimes used for cases like this too, where they don't necessarily have to be a couple for it to be called so.

Kanon · 2019-08-23, 15:14

Well, now they're going out, so we can have proper NTR. You guys happy?

Kazusa made Niina out to be a way better person than she is. I'm certain future episodes will make her eat those words.

Happy Sonezaki finally embraced her feelings and stopped caring about what others think. Also happy Momoko dumped that guy, not that they were going out in the first place.

Wandering Soul · 2019-08-23, 16:55

I like that this series doesn't just end with 2 couple getting together and shows that there is more to a relationship than just that. Wonder what's in the future for Niina and Momoka.

Guardian Enzo · 2019-08-23, 19:11

Wow, an actual apology to the person being screwed over - that's quite a development.

rladls2121 · 2019-08-23, 20:59

I have been wondering, the old man Niina used to work under.
Does his face and his glasses obviously of resemble someone?
Not looking exactly like the one in real life, but just based on an actually person, who was it?

You mean Jobs? At least, that's the only comparison I've seen.

rladls2121 · 2019-08-23, 21:45

Damn it, I shouldn't have asked.
I don't use Iphone so I didn't know very much.
I'm kind of creeped out actually.

Guardian Enzo · 2019-08-23, 23:00

I don't think he's modeled on Jobs. I think he's just supposed to look like a generic Bohemian artsy type.

stray · 2019-08-24, 22:09

So... is Niina actually into Izumi or is she into Kazusa? I've been getting yuri vibes more than anything for the last two episodes.

Decel · 2019-08-24, 22:17

One of my favourites episodes so far, so much happened! Love how not everything has a happy ending.
Feeling a trainwreck coming...

Into Izumi of course. Niina has shown no interest in girls, let alone Kazusa. If anything, Kazusa would be the gay one for ogling Niina so much in the bath and describing her perfect breasts in detail

Shut up.

That was a damn good episode. Significant developments on the Kazusa and Sonozaki front make me go a bit "doki-doki" myself.

I'm not sure where you're getting that from. As far as I can see she's very much into Izumi, but how to interpret her cryptic talk with Saegusa is a difficult one.

The only yuri vibes I've gotten from a character so far is Momoka.

Kazusa was wondering what Niina's opinion of her goods was but we didn't end up getting Niina's PoV while she was helping Kazusa out of the bath and getting dressed and such.

Hard to quantify, but to me Niina's feelings towards Izumi really lack believability or sincerity or je ne sais quoi... everything would make a lot more sense if it was Kazusa she was pining for all along.

I'm probably hoping for too much from a shoehorned love triangle but... I guess I'll see.

rladls2121 · 2019-08-26, 02:45

To me as far as I can see, Niina is a girl who is curious about stuff.
Who knows if she is into him or not, maybe she has not realized it herself or not just yet.

I think this is just the beginning, the end of Act 1, and it ended with two girls going about with the one they love, the one girl left the guy because he was not good enough for her, and the male teacher between a female student, halfway maybe?
Finally, it is like Niina's part of story is just getting started, seemingly moved on from her past.
