I’m kinda over this. Don’t know how much longer this one-sided relationship is going to go on. Having to watch a girl bending over backwards for a guy who is totally clueless is getting hard to watch.

Time for the weekly dose of sugar! One thing I like about Eiji in this series is how casual he is about things that are usually made into a huge deal in other romcoms. Rin might freak out in her head as he grabs her hand to help her down from somewhere, but Eiji doesn’t even flinch. Similarly when he gives her the button, or goes to the movies.

I bring this up for this episode because they had a conversation in which Eiji actually reflects on how the way that he experiences romance is different than the heart-pounding version of it we see in media a lot of the time. Everybody experiences emotions in their own way and some people are going to experience certain ones more or less intensely than others.

Anyway, we got some different versions of Rin this episode including Class Pres Rin and several different short hair versions of her existing characters. The important thing to her though is that they have started to do things together outside of the club, making their relationship feel a little bit closer than it was before. @rikka@ani.social
