The characters look different from the first two episodes. What happened?
@WIHaveNoUsername Many people don't realize this, but there is actually no chief animation director for this episode. The animation and character editing roles are assigned to a special guest animator. So it won't be very similar to the original designs.

The ending was unexpected but overall it was an OK episode.
The only thing is the random drops of quality in the animation, I normally dont care about those details, but these were pretty bad. I hope it was just this one episode because the first two were beautifully animated

I knew that Komari was going to confess in front of the other people but in my head I was saying don't do it, don't do it but she did. I do expect for her to get rejected in the next episode but the reason why should be different compared to Lemon. Btw, it seems like Nukumizu's sister was nearby while they were grilling as the red bean rice reminded me of the interaction he had with her earlier in the episode.

This show deserves to be way more popular ngl
@Skylowern The synopsis is dogshit and the key art is generic as hell. I only picked it up on a whim 3 weeks into the season. It's top tier for sure but the advertising is absolutely terrible.

@Jb-Bond Setsuko is what Nukumizu named the last piece of meat that he wanted to eat, and he was panic because Anna was about to take that from him too.

I know this is supposed to be some sort of ... well, not straight up a parody, but more like a very self aware spin on all those romance light novels that tries to take themselves way too seriously ... with a lot of comedy on top of that.

But still, i'm expecting an actual romance development down the line, right ? Not just crushes cause some other dude rejected me, also if the MC rejects already rejected girl (and boy do we know it's coming) ... what happens then ? lol.

But hey, the beach episodes are a must too, you wont see me fighting that. Tho i need to say that Mari Makinami Illust-, im sorry, i mean Tsukinoki needs more screentime.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who gets Mari vibes watching her! 😂

This was another great episode, lots of great gags that genuinely made me laugh. The whole thing with Kaju telling the neighbourhood shops that Nukumizu has no friends was hilarious, and does the appearance of those red bean paste rice balls mean she’s followed them to the beach? 🤣

Being serious for a second though, the bit where Chika nearly got her face burned was scary, I’m glad the Prez was able to get there in time for her. The fact that she didn’t care about her face was really sad, as is the fact she’s going to be rejected next week. 😭 I hope she’s going to be OK.

Imagine if that guy accepted Komari's confession and Tsukinoki joined the loser club instead. It won't happen but, like, imagine.

Good episode. Looked a bit different as others mentioned, but it didn't bother me.

Still not sure about the whole premise, or specifically the protagonist's role. If they all develop feelings for him, I think we all know who'd win. My pick would be Lemon though.

Komari's confession made an otherwise okay episode into something good.

The student council girl is hot but creepy.

Also, the live action in the ed is changing.

ok so the beach ep is here, this show is making fun of every clichés topics of every other romantic anime series ever, I love how every character has its own personalities and as per the heroins I just know that the red haired girl is gonna break her heart by getting rejected form the president of the literature club for sure(correct me if I am wrong),over all it's fun to watch and gorgeous to look at the animation, that's y it's top 3 rom-com anime this season for me.....

I can never say no whenever a beach episode gets shown! =3

The girls all look great in their chosen bikinis and one-piece swimsuits, even Komari. Anna joining the club just to avoid going to a family barbecue was hilarious, but I think she did the right thing, as she's still thoroughly entertaining to see what she gets up to. She's honestly that likeable as a character. As for Lemon, I'm glad that she's feeling better after being rejected in the previous episode. Her talk with Nukumizu was wholesome and sweet.

As for Komari, this little cutie decided to make a brave decision, considering her awkward personality, and outright confessed her feelings towards Tsukinoki. Knowing the title for this series, I'm expecting her to get rejected, although I can't help but have a naive side of myself to but pray for a miracle that she somehow succeeds. We'll find out next time, which I'm eagerly looking forward to. =)

Nukumizu and Chika's argument about their school's tap water and which one to drink from is rather hilarious, though it's very clear that she has an affection for Shintaro.

The Literature Club gets going with a sudden training camp from Tsukinoki, but it awakens the student council's Yumeko Shikiya being a menace of a secretary-like character. More than Nukumizu being needed to find a plot to write about, Anna comes grumbling about one of her failed romance stories, and it's a canned feeling, both figuratively and being edible. Chika comparing herself to both Anna and Lemon, OH GOD NO, apologize to the beauties in the literature clubs all around!

It's the beach episode for early Summer, though it gives the chance for the girls to shine with their swimsuits and all. Chika still being reserved and holding back, it's quite like her, and Nkumizu apologizing for what he did to Lemon, it's all good. More than Anna just eating food endlessly (and earning her extra calories in the process), Shintaro's quite the avid novel writer, separate on Chika's side, and I just love how Lemon took Chika for a ride to the ocean. The usual BBQ and fireworks small celebration aside, it's clear that Tsukinoki is into Shintaro, Anna feeding Nukumizu with his perfect meat to shave off some of her debt, and Chika almost scorched her face, if not for Shintaro saving her out of trouble, and consoling her.

Oh welp, it wouldn't be a Makeine episode without the confession and all, and Chika got her confession out to Shintaro, though how will everyone respond?

After 3 episodes, it's clear that the anime is the superior version of the LN and manga, and I'm liking this quite a lot.

OMG this show is just so much fun to watch. I love all three of the main girls, I feel like I see a bit of myself in all of them.

Komari's awkwardness makes her just so cute I cant watch her get rejected next episode mann. At least shes gonna make some new friends she'll get to eat lunch with.

I do kinda like the dynamic between the president and His Childhood friend( Cant remember If she was the vice president or not)

I might be the only one who disliked lemon in this episode.

I get being bummed about not being with your crush but how much did you pursue him romantically compared to his girlfriend? at least komari in this ep despite her constant anxiety shouted it with different people around.

also you expect someone to be chivalrous after planting their face on the sand, laughed at him and had the gall to lecture him about being women wanting to be spoiled?!?!?


I really wanna like lemon but she's behaving like a brat

We got the beach episode kinda early this season, absolutely not complaining tho, Yanami and Lemon looked quite amazing in their swimsuits, of course Komari would be in a school swimsuit, and Tsukinoki look nice herself, also the literature club president Tamaki kinda revealed his perverted nature in this one but I can’t say he was ever wrong lol. It was also nice seeing Lemon’s spirits back up, that was a laugh and a half when Nukumizu took that fall in the sand, very cute scene.

And for a second I thought this episode was gonna end without anything crazy happening, but after Komari nearly ignited her face with a firework and got saved by Tamaki, she actually went for the confession right in front of everyone, I have mad respect for that move, especially when you consider her personality, but since this show is about losing heroines, we are probably about to see her rejected lol, there’s a chance she won’t of course but I doubt it.

It was a good beach episode. It starts unexpectedly with Nukumizu and Komari arguing about the school water, becoming quite entertaining as they compete to see who is more foolish. At the beach, Anna and Lemon stand out with their typical funny moments and some swimsuit scenes that are always nice.

But it couldn't end any other way than leaving you in suspense. Komari finally confesses to Tamaki in front of everyone, with all the tension possible. I really like this girl, but unfortunately, given the plot of this anime, this probably won’t end well for her. Honestly, she pairs better with Nukumizu than with Tamaki. I hope they don’t do more cliffhangers, or I'll have to turn to the manga.

I like the manga and this adaptation is really doing it justice. Good direction, framing, pace and animation. I really like the voice acting and the usage of music during the episodes is very good. I also like the energetic OP. And the visual humour was quite good in this episode. Really a good job.

Guys I'm having a hard time figuring out the studio for this anime, it doesn't say it anywhere in the opening or ending /s

That water knowledge competition, they are on opposite ends of the spectrum. I agree with warm water being easier to drink and easier on the stomach, but damn.

Yeah, I never understood people wearing literally underwear, but having issue with being seen in underwear. Makes no sense to me.

I'm shocked, the runners tan, I still love it even when so off with the bikini. I am torn between wanting that tan, and.... I wonder if I can be spray tanned that tan, I should look into that, as opposed to dedication to cancer beds or the cancer orb in the sky to maybe get close to it. (I can't run anymore (disability), but want that look)

They really did him dirty eating all that then meat blocking him. Luckily he was able to be fed Setsuko. She was good meat.

Confession #2, last one was lemon I think, and she was brutalized, I got bad feeling same will happen here Q_Q
I was actually thinking about me in his situation, because I don't want to be with someone that looks like a child, but honestly, it's a really bad standard for me to have when people think I'm underage and when my kids were in high-school, admin thought I was 10 Q_Q

I'm more attracted to Kaju's voice, then Anna, next Chika, and lastly, Yumeko.

P.S. Someone finally confessed to someone... and it's the newly introduced character... wow.
CrazyButNot4UJul 28, 8:38 PM
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Beach episode… It was very fun. I really like Lemon and think she would make a good pair with Nukumizu, but that's not going to happen since this isn't that kind of anime.

Chika may be introverted, lonely, and everything else, but at least she had the guts to take a risk and confess; and that's going to be the most painful part because she'll probably get rejected (since that's what this story is about). I just hope the president isn't too harsh with her. I'm eagerly looking forward to the next episode.

Is it just me, or did Nukumizu's design took a big left turn after episode two. I don't know if it's just my eyes messing with me, but he looks really different this episode. I compared two detailed frames of his recent and old face and if I hadn't watched the anime, I would've said it was two different people. I mean it was still a great episode and I enjoyed it a lot, but it just really bugged me for some reason.

I agree, he got chadded up this ep. Spending time with them grills got his testosterone on overdrive

Another masterpiece episode, they doesn't drop the ball at all.

Fun beach episode with no needless fan service + some great interactions between characters, specially between Nukumizu and Lemon.

Chika was the focus this episode. She is the most shy but mustered up so much courage too confess. I know it gonna end badly but still great effort.
But mainly she almost gave me heartattack by bursting cracker on her face, that was close.

Shintaro & Koto are great characters. Unlike other male character who rejects this guy actually has a likeable personality.
Koto too

Fellow Isekai trashman let's go..

Kaju is such a sweetheart spreading weird rumours about her brother to the whole market also looks like she is in the same resort.

Every fucking Anna scene is great. How tf she squeezed herself in that camp. Also feeding Nukumizu that was surprisingly kind and sweet I was 100% sure she would eat that.
Nukumizu rizzing up two girls already. Ik it will be slow be soon he will become side to mc maybe(?).

They are also changing ED visuals. A1 is cooking real good.

What a turnover! I always thought Koto-chan likes Tamaki-kun, but Komari-chan was. I wonder what will happen from now on, will they be together? I am eager to find out in the next episode.

This beach episode was amazing, I did not expect for the literature club to not have any published book yet, even if the costs were high and publishing channels weren’t existing. Yanami and Nukumizu share a great relationship too:)

This anime gives me Makoto’s movies vibes more and more, the animation resembles them so much!

Komari jumping and hiding under the desk. Nukumizu tripping on his own feet and faceplanting in the sand. Lemon bursting out laughing and going noodle.

I see so much personality and attention to detail. And I'm loving the voicework, it completes the characters. The only complaint is the characters' faces seem to change from time to time, but it's easily forgivable.

I think I should enjoy this show more but something about it keeps irking me. Pacing doesn't feel right, it's like something is wrong with the passage of time between events or episodes are disjointed. There isn't much to go off but I think manga is better. The anime has surprisingly good production quality for what kind of slop A1 usually makes, but it's still not clicking.

the episode composition is kind of irregular I agree. I would say it feels like "the other shoe is going ro drop". Like if that firework actually disfigured the girl I would've been like "ah so that's why everything's felt off" lol. I still like it though because even if it's just a weirdly directed show it makes it feel more original

This episode was pretty standard-- honestly, it's not really like this anime is groundbreaking or anything. I swear it feels like people just really like it for the visuals and it's just pretty standard so it's not exactly something that you just kinda hate or anything. This episode wasn't even all that interesting on its own, but I think they at least do well to have a certain vibe to it. I mean, I picked this up because I wanted something to be able to chill along with during the summer and from what I was getting from the PV and the little bit of the manga I read, I was pretty confident that it would have that vibe I was looking for. I was right; this episode definitely helped fulfill that desire. However, it's still not exactly some riveting tale. Yet at least this episode helped evoke a sense of calm. I do enjoy how the characters are starting to interact with each other so far, or at least now that everyone has been introduced. Perhaps those interactions are going to be this anime's strength aside from its visuals. Gotta wait and see I guess.

Enjoy your anime! | Witch Cafe Wisteria
