忍者小雪発見

Ninja Koyun spotted

誰だよ月子にメダルやったの。

Who gave Tsukiko a medal?

誰か湊がどうなってんのか教えてくれ。心の病気なの？ いやマジで、他人の幸せを自分より優先しすぎて、本当の自分を見失ってるのがバレバレなんだよ。

Can someone tell me what the hell is wrong with Minato, is he mentally ill? Like bitch it’s so obvious that he puts the well being of othetd above himself to the point that he forgets his real self.

>心の病気なの？
そりゃそうだろ。子どものころのトラウマってのはタチが悪いんだよ。
by 同じことやってる心を病んだ奴

>>9

>is he mentally ill?
Yeah, duh. Childhood trauma is a bitch.

t. also mentally ill does the same thing

今さら湊を友達止まり扱いしてるの、小雪の盛大な負け惜しみだろ。

Koyun is belatedly friendzoning Minato as a massive cope

うちの子、ここじゃいちばんまともなんだよな……

our girl really is the normal one here..

カップルにしか見えん

They look like a couple

ああ湊、自分の幸せについては複雑な気持ちみたいだな。今期は湊にも小雪にも、感情のジェットコースターだった。せめて二人が向き合えたのはよかった。いい話で言えば、文化祭が大成功してるのも見ててうれしい。

Oh Minato, he seems to have mixed feeling about his own happiness. It has been a wild ride of emotions this season for both him and Koyuki. Glad at least the two can face each other.

On the plus side, it's nice to see the festival being successful.

湊が自分の選択に納得してないのは明らかだな。
小雪は最後の会話で、ようやく気持ちに区切りをつけたっぽい。
問題は、桃香がこれからどうするか。
美姫も、次にどうするか迷ってるみたいだ。

Well it's clear Minato isn't sitting well with his choice.

And Koyuki seems to finally have moved past her feelings with the conversation at the end.

The question is what will Momoka do now.

Miki also seems to be struggling on what to do next.

ED後の場面、めちゃくちゃかっこいい。ああいう映像効果に弱いんだよ。
桃香、今になって罪悪感を感じてるのかな……それとも別の何か？

The scene after credits is so cool, I'm a sucker for visual effects like that

I'm guessing that Momoka is feeling guilty now... or something?

ドッキリだって、ドッキリ
からの、いちばんふわっとした言い方でトドメ。「幸せならいい」？

it is just a prank bro

then he hit him with the most vague wording: as long as you happy?

最高、最高の回だった！！ 今、心がぐちゃぐちゃ。

amazing amazing episode!! My heart is a mess right now.

いい回だった。美姫のリアクション、湊と小雪のやりとりを全部聞いてた桃香、自分の気持ちが分からない湊、そして溶ける小雪。よかった。

That was a great one. Miki's reactions, Momoka listening to all that happened with Minato and Koyun, Minato not knowing what he was feeling, and Koyun melting. Nice.

正直、このくだらないお約束にはうんざりしてきた。
湊がボロボロになってるのは、グループのみんなを常に幸せにしておこうとしてるからだ。役に立つことと揉め事を防ぐことに取りつかれすぎて、自分が何を必要としてるのかをすっかり見失ってる。
で、周りはどうするか？ 「お前が幸せなら、それでいいんじゃない？」みたいな、ふわっとした言葉を投げ続けるだけ。でも、何が自分を幸せにするのかを湊が見つけるのを、実際に手伝う奴はいるのか？ なんで湊がみんなの気持ちにまで責任を感じてるのか、そこに向き合う奴はいるのか？
それどころか、グループは「自分の幸せを優先しろ」って理屈で、湊が桃香から距離を置くように遠回しに仕向けてる。しかも物語は、その幸せを小雪に近づくことと同じものとして扱ってるように見える。
そうして湊が離れ、桃香が崩れていき、小雪は湊に距離を置き、最後には二人が近づく。で、この流れ全体を心の癒やしとして見ろってわけだ。
でも、桃香はどうなる？
湊の苦しみは、みんなのために自分の幸せを犠牲にしてるからって同情される。一方で、桃香の自信のなさや見捨てられる怖さは、ずっと軽く扱われてる。グループが状況を作り、湊がプレッシャーで壊れ、そのツケの一部を桃香が払う。
関係がややこしいのも、キャラが間違えるのも構わない。でも、一人の心の成長を美しい勝利みたいに描いて、別の誰かが受けてる心の傷は都合よく見過ごす話には、もう疲れたんだよ。
湊は他人の幸せのために生きるのをやめなきゃいけない、ってのが言いたいことなら、それでいい。でも、それが何を意味するのか分かるよう手伝いもせずに「とにかく幸せになれ」って言うのは、心の支えとは言えないだろ。

I'm honestly getting tired of this stupid trope.

Minato is falling apart because he's constantly trying to keep everyone in the group happy. He's so obsessed with being useful and preventing conflict that he completely loses sight of his own needs.

And what does everyone do? They keep throwing vague messages at him, things like "As long as you're happy, isn't that all that matters?" But does anyone actually help him figure out what makes him happy? Does anyone address why he feels responsible for everyone else's emotional well-being?

Instead, the group indirectly encourages him to distance himself from Momoko under the argument that he should prioritize his own happiness. And somehow, the narrative seems to equate that happiness with being closer to Koyuki.

So Minato pulls away, Momoko starts falling apart, Koyuki gives him space, and eventually they get closer. Then we're supposed to look at this whole situation as emotional healing.

But what about Momoko?

Minato's struggle gets treated with sympathy because he's sacrificing his own happiness for everyone else, while Momoko's insecurity and fear of abandonment receive far less consideration. The group contributes to the situation, Minato breaks under the pressure, and Momoko ends up paying part of the price.

I don't mind complicated relationships or characters making mistakes. But I'm tired of stories presenting one character's emotional growth as a beautiful victory while conveniently overlooking the emotional damage happening to someone else.

If the point is that Minato needs to stop living for other people's happiness, fine. But telling someone "just be happy" without helping them understand what that even means isn't exactly emotional support.

湊は揺れてるわけじゃないし、まだ何にも気づいてない。抑え込んだ感情の沼に、どっぷりハマってるんだ。それが画面にも出てる。実際、鍵まで映ってたしな。
このアニメがすごいのは、キャラの欠点や悩みが痛いほどリアルなところ。
このまま自分の気持ちと向き合わなかったら、湊は深いうつに落ちる寸前だ。向き合ったら向き合ったで、きっとひどいことになる。
次の回で、全員のこのとんでもない感情の溜まり具合が、やっと少しは楽になるといいな。

Minato isn't having mixed feelings and he didn't realize anything yet. he is so deep down the rabbit hole of suppressed emotions and it shows. (I mean there's literally a lock shown)

This show is amazing because the characters have painfully realistic flaws and problems.

he is currently about to go into a deep depression if he doesn't confront is feelings. and if he does he it will be ugly too.

I hope next episode we finally get some relief from this insane build up of feelings on all sides

原作勢の多くが、湊の友達はあんまり助けになってないとか、湊を分かってないとか、よく言ってる。「幸せか」のあの場面は、友達が湊自身のことを聞いた初めての瞬間だった。それ以外はずっと責めてばかり。女子に気を持たせるなとか、第1期では好きになった子に痛い目を見ればいいとか、前の回では女子に信用されないのはお前のせいだとか。

I think a lot of manga ppl often comment on how his friends weren't being all that helpful to Minato or don't understand him. The are you happy moment was the first time his friends asked about MINATO'S well being. The rest of the time they were criticizing him for leading girls on, wishing he gets hurt by a girl he falls for (season 1) or telling him it is his fault that girls don't trust him (last episode)

見てて辛い回だった。湊に出てた体の症状を見て、高校のころを思い出した。あのころ、うつになったんだよ。もともと明るい性格で、だいたい前向きに生きてきたから、自分に起きてることがうつの初期症状だなんて、気づきもしなかった。

This episode was painful to watch. Seeing all the physical symptoms Minato was experiencing brought me back to my high school days, when I fell into depression. I've always had a sunny disposition and a generally positive outlook on life, so I didn't even realize that what I was experiencing were actually the early signs of depression.

桃香の名前が出た瞬間に雷の演出。もう無理……。湊との関係がどこへ向かうかは、みんな分かってる。だから問題は、小雪に『ハッピーシュガーライフ』を阻まれた桃香が次に何をするかだ。激辛のドロドロ展開が近づいてるぞ。

The second Momoka was mentioned, we got thunderstorm effects. I just can’t… We all know where her relationship with Minato is going, so the question is: what will Momoka do after Koyuki denies her Happy Sugar Life? Some extremely spicy drama is on the horizon.

小雪が湊に、友達でいてくれてありがとうって伝えた。小雪がいい方向に変われたのは湊のおかげ。一時的にでも、あれで湊の荷が少し軽くなった気がする。小雪のほうもな。

Koyun thanked Minato for being her friend. He's the reason she changed for the better. Feel like that made Minato's burden lighter, even if temporarily. Koyun's too.

月子と美姫がギリギリで耐えてる！ あんな小雪、見てられないって感じで草。小雪が胸の『すす』を少しでも払えたのはよかった。でも、本気で諦めるのだけはやめてほしい。湊がパニック発作みたいになってるのは、こんなの間違ってるって体が言ってるんだよ。相手は桃香じゃないんだって。
そもそも、あの子は負け戦だって分かってた。何に首を突っ込むかも分かってた。いま感じてることは全部自業自得だ。
ただ小雪が心配なんだよ。湊をつなぎとめるために桃香が仕掛けるとんでもないことに、小雪が巻き込まれる筋合いはない。まあ桃香だって、最初から湊を本当に手に入れてたわけじゃないけどな。

Tsukiko and Miki are barely holding on! They can’t stand seeing Koyun like this lol. I’m glad Koyun’s got some of that “soot” off her chest and all but I really hope she’s not truly letting go. The fact Minato’s having some kind of panic attack feels like his body’s way of telling him this s**t isn’t right, man. Momoka ain’t the one.
Besides, that girl knew she was playing a losing game. She knew what she was getting herself involved in. Everything that she’s feeling is her own doing.
I’m just worried for Koyun. She doesn’t deserve whatever crazy bullshit Momoka’s gonna pull to keep Minato. Not that she ever truly had him in the first place.

小雪は、自分がこの話の負けヒロインだと思って、諦めて『正しいこと』をしようとしてるんだと思う。でも桃香は取り乱すし、湊はもっと悪くなる。それで小雪は、気持ちを手放すんじゃなくて、ちゃんと動くしかなくなるはず。
桃香が湊に『もう小雪とは一切会わないで』って言い出すのも、普通にありそう。それが最後の一押しになるんだよ。

I think Koyun is trying to give up and do the "right thing" thinking she's the Losing Heroine in this picture but Momoka is going to freak out, Minato is going to get worse, and force her to actually act on her feelings rather than just let them go.
Because I could definitely see Momoka telling Minato now that he can't hang out with Koyun at ALL and that's the straw that breaks the camels' back.

桃香、もうおかしくなってる。爆発寸前で、しかもそれが小雪がやっと気持ちに区切りをつけた時に来てるのが、なおさら痛快。でも正直、何を期待してたんだ？ 相手に好きな人がいて、その人も相手を好きだって分かってて付き合おうとするなんて無理だよ。自滅だ。最後の湊と小雪の会話は、湊と桃香の間にあったどの会話よりも深かった。湊は無理して桃香と一緒にいるんだ。今回、それが体にまで出てるのを見なくても、これ以上ないくらい明らかだよ。

Momoka is losing it, she's crashing out and it happening when Koyuki finally gets closure makes it so much sweeter. Honestly though, what did she expect? You can't try to date someone when you know they are into someone else and that person likes them too, it's self sabotage. That conversation Minato and Koyuki had at the end of the episode was more deep than anything we've from him and Momoka. He's forcing himself to be with her and it couldn't be more obvious even if we didn't see how it is physically affecting him in this episode.

それに、小雪に友達としか見られてないって湊がまだ思ってるとしても、自分は迷惑じゃなかった、小雪の人生にいい影響を与えてたって分かったことは、桃香がどれだけ口説こうとしたことよりも、湊にとって大きかったんだよ。
でも正直、これで桃香が爆発するのは必要なのかもしれない。小雪はもう諦めてるし、無理やり動かされない限り何もしないだろうから。湊も同じ。

Also even if he still thinks Koyun only sees him as a friend, realizing he wasn't a bother and had a positive impact on her life meant more to Minato than any of Momoka's attempts to woo him.
But honestly I feel like Momoka lashing out because of this might be necessary because Koyun's given up and probably won't do anything unless the issue gets forced. Same with Minato.

で、そこが桃香の横やりの皮肉なところ。結局、あの二人をくっつけるのは桃香なんだよ。あれだけ策を練って、それが全部自分に跳ね返ってくるってのは、まさにお似合いだな。

And that's the irony of Momoka's meddling, she will eventually bring them together. All this planning for it to blow up in her face is pretty appropriate.

小雪が、友達でいてくれたことを湊に感謝した言葉は、本当に心からのものだって伝わってきた。
だから、あんな心温まる会話で桃香が――言うとおり――爆発しかけてるのは、ほとんど笑える。あの子の不安は、どんどん有害なものに形を変えつつある。

You could tell Koyuki’s words of thanks towards Minato for being her friend really came from the heart.
I therefore find it almost hilarious that Momoka is crashing out - like you’ve said - over such a wholesome conversation. Her insecurities are increasingly starting to take the shape of toxicity.

うーん、桃香といる湊は死んだ目で無関心なのに、小雪とだと赤くなって笑ってるんだが。それと、湊の不安の描き方が完璧だった。本気で同情する。湊には、自分がどうすればいいか教えてくれる人が誰もいない。ずっと助ける側、割って入る側だった。自分にそういう人がいたことがないんだよ。「幸せなはずだ」って言い続けてるけど、そういうもんじゃないだろ。小雪の成長もすごい。もともと周りはよく見えてた。でも湊を見てるだけで、湊との関わりが殻を破る助けになってたって気づくんだよな。来週が楽しみ！

hmm Minato miserable and indifferent w momoka but blushing and smiling with koyuki🤔
Also tho the way they adapted his anxiety was perfect. I really feel for him. Minato has absolutely no guidance for what he needs to do. He’s always been the helper and one who steps in. He hasn’t had anyone like that for him.
He keeps saying “he must be happy” but that’s not really how it works huh.
Koyuns growth is also exceptional. Like she was already very aware of her surroundings but just by observing Minato she realizes how much his interactions helped her come out of her shell
Looking forward to next week!

小雪と二人きりのときだけ、やっと息ができてる感じ。シーズン1のころ、小雪を困らせてるって湊にきつい人が多かったのを覚えてる。でも今見ると、小雪が湊を理解してからは、それが殻を破る助けになってたんだよな。

It's like he can finally breathe when it's just him and Koyun together.
I remember a back in season 1 people were really harsh on Minato and how he made Koyun uncomfortable but we see now how that ultimately helped her come out of her shell once she finally understood him.

とんでもない回だった。笑えたけど、湊のことが本気で心配にもなった。何より、湊がどれだけ苦しんでるか誰かに気づいてほしい。みんなを幸せにして愛を勝ち取らなくてもいいんだって、言ってあげてほしい。
湊だって、幸せになっていいんだよ。

What an extraordinary episode. It made me laugh, but it also left me genuinely worried about Minato. More than anything, I want someone to notice how much he’s suffering and tell him that he doesn’t have to earn love by making everyone else happy.
He deserves to be happy, too.

小雪はたぶん、気持ちに折り合いをつける。でも、湊が実はどれだけ不幸か気づいたら、自分から動かなきゃいけなくなる。湊を本当に支えられるのは小雪だけなんだよ。あいつが本当に楽しそうなのは、小雪といるときだけだから。

I think the thing with Koyun is going to be that she's going to make peace with things but she's going to have to act with initative when she realizes how unhappy Minato really is.
Because only she can be the one to really help him through this because he's only really happy when he's with her.

絨毯の衣装の陽太が見られて最高に嬉しい。期待どおり、すごくて笑えた。
湊と桃香の関係は、隕石みたいに墜ちていってる。でもこの回でいちばん残ったのは、二人が一緒にいるのを見たみんなの反応なんだよな。桃香と回ると考えただけで、湊が死んだ顔してるってだけじゃない。友達はみんな、湊が桃香を好きじゃないって分かってる。しかも、二人の関係を認めてないのを隠そうともしない。二人が一緒にいると、周りのテンションまで下がる。日本人は控えめでシャイだって言うけど、それでも誰かが思い切って「別れろよ」って言ったら、周りの友達はみんな乗っかって賛成すると思う。

So happy to see Yota in the carpet outfit. It was as incredible and hilarious as I could have hoped.
Minato and Momoka's relationship is crashing down like a meteor but my main takeaway from this episode is just everyone's reaction to seeing them together. It wasn't just Minato looking miserable from the idea of going with her but how all his friends know he doesn't like her and how they don't even hide that they don't approve of their relationship. They ruin the vibes of the party for the people around them when they are together and even for as reserved and shy as japanese people are if someone dared to tell Minato to dump her I feel like all his friends around him would jump in and agree after someone dares to say it.

絨毯のダンスは笑った。ダンスでつなぐ場面を足してくれてよかった。
でも、難しいとこなんだよな。友達は前の回で、桃香がベタベタしすぎだってちゃんと言おうとしてた。それを湊が半分シャットアウトした。こういうのは本人から変わらないと無理なんだよ。外からどうこうするのは難しい。

The carpet dance was hilarious, glad they added the dance segue
It’s tricky though. His friends did try to bring up how clingy she was last episode which Minato semi-shut down. Changes like this needs to come from the person- it’s hard to externally influence

友達は、桃香とイチャついてる湊に「うへー」って感じなんだと思う。でも同時に、湊が気持ちの面でかなりまずいのも見えてるんじゃないかな。

I think his friends were kind of just "blah" at him being cute with Momoka but I think they can also see that he's emotionally not doing that great.

爆笑した。ユキとアキネのあの格好で、まさかパンケーキの店とは思わなかった。

ROFL With what Yuki and Akine were wearing, I definitely was not expecting a pancake store.

最高においしい回の締めくくり。ゾンビ世界がテーマのパンケーキみたいな味がする。

Such a tasty ending to an episode, taste almost like zombie apocalypse themed pancake.

桃香は、小雪に「勝った」あとでも不安なままだった。勝利を楽しめないし、戦いはまだ終わってなかったらしい。自分から湊を捨てることは絶対にしないって誓ってたけど、逆の話は誰もしてないよな？ 湊が捨てる側に回って、その初めての経験を消化していく流れになったら、面白い変化球だと思う。

Momoka still felt insecure even after 'claiming' victory against Koyuki. She couldn't enjoy her victory, and it seemed that the battle turned out to not be over just yet. She vowed to never dump Minato, but who said anything about the other way around? It'd be an interesting change of pace to have him on the other side, along with him processing the new experience.

陽太に告られてから、美姫はずっとバグってる。あんな目で陽太を見たことがなかったんだよ。陽太こそ理想の相手だってのが、どんどん隠せなくなってる。

Miki has been malfunctioning since Yota confessed, she's never seen him in this light before and it's becoming increasingly obvious that he's her dream guy.

フッた後に迷いが出てくるやつだな。陽太とどれだけ波長が合うか、美姫は気づき始めてる。自分でフッたくせに、陽太が本当に次へ行ったら、たぶん平気じゃいられない。で、笑えるのが小雪。本気で諦めようとしてて、できると思ってる。なのに桃香がたぶん爆発して、そのついでに小雪の勝ちになるんだよ。

Miki feeling that post-rejection second thoughts when she's realizing just how well she and Yota vibe together and that she probably would not be happy if he actually moved on (even though she rejected him).
It's funny how Koyun is really trying to give up and thinking she can but Momoka is probably going to blow up and give her the win in the process.

ここ数話で、美姫が陽太を好きになり始めてるかもって思ってた。正直、今回で確定した。

To me, the last couple episodes made me think Miki might be starting to catch feelings for Yota, but this episode confirmed it for me tbh.

桃香は自分を、絶好調の策士だと思ってた。でも最後に転がしてたのは、自分自身だけだった。

Momoka thought she was the mastermind at the top of her game, but by the end - the only one she played, is herself.

心が求めるものは止められない。桃香がどんなに揺さぶっても、湊の心は桃香を求めてないんだよ。

The heart wants what the heart wants and Minato's heart does not want Momoka no matter how much she tries to sway it.

うわぁ、桃香の爆発は秒読みだな。手放すことについて、小雪から少しは学べばいいのに。引きで終わる回は、第1期のEDが流れてくれたのがちょっと恋しい。

Oh boy, Momoka crashout is imminent. She could learn a thing or two from Koyun about letting go. Kinda miss having the ED from first season play whenever the episode ends on a cliffhanger.

小雪はもう本当に諦めてるのに、桃香の爆発で結局小雪が勝ちそうなのが笑える。

It's funny how Koyun has actually given up but Momoka's crashout is going to end up helping her win anyways.

なんで湊じゃなきゃダメだったのか？ たぶん、湊がわざわざ小雪を輪に入れて、ここにいていいんだって思わせてくれたからだ。ずっと外側の人間でいなくていいって気づかせて、いい方向に変えてくれた。だからこそ、恋人にはなれなくても、せめて湊を認めて、小雪にいい影響を与えたんだって分からせてあげられる。そのせいで湊は、やっぱり友達としか見られてないと思うかもしれないけど。それが小雪なりの、気持ちとの折り合いのつけ方なんだよ。

Why did it HAVE to be Minato? Probably because Minato going out of his way to make her feel included, make her feel like she belonged, made her realize she didn't HAVE to feel like a perpetual outsider, changed her for the better. So much so that, even if she can't be with him romantically, she can at least validate and help him realize that he had a positive impact on her. Even if he'll still probably think she only sees him as a friend because of it. But it's how she's making peace with her feelings.

現実的に考えて、桃香に何ができる？ この件の前から湊を信用できてなかったんだし、ここで騒ぎを大きくしたら完全にとどめだろ。

Realistically, what can Momoka do? She's shown that she isn't even trusting of Minato before this happened, escalating it even further will nail the coffin.

そう、神の月子がメダル獲ったぞ！何のメダルなのかだけは教えてほしい。

That's right, the GOAT Tsukiko won a medal! I just wish we knew what it was for.

シナモンロールの中のシナモンロール、堂々のグランドチャンピオン。

ガチで相棒キャラの頂点。

Truly the greatest of sidekicks

恋のアシスト賞、受賞おめでとう。

Winning that Wingwoman award.

湊は、自分以外のみんなを幸せにしようとして、自分を苦しめてる。小雪といるときは、友達としてでも本当に幸せそうなのに。で、今度は桃香がそれを二人から奪おうとしてて、それで湊は壊れるんだろうな。

Minato is torturing himself by trying to make everyone happy, but himself. He is truly happy when he is with Koyun, even if its just as friends and now Momoka is going to try and take that away from both of them and its going to break him.

せめてもの救いは、フラれたとはいえ、陽太を恋愛相手として見る発想が美姫の頭にこびりついたことだな。本人はいま全然知らないけど。

I guess silver lining is even if he got rejected it got the idea of him as a romantic partner stuck in Miki's head. Even if he has no idea about that right now.

桃香は100%、湊か小雪、もしくは両方にキレる。で、当然それが自分に跳ね返ってくる。
ただでさえ不安に押しつぶされそうなのに、今度は友達から『問い詰めろ』ってけしかけられてる。正直、最悪のアドバイスだ。そもそも小雪と湊の会話、ちゃんと聞こえてなかったんだからな。

Momoka is 100% going to lash out at Minato and/or Koyuki. Obviously, this is going to blow up in her face.
Having being plagued by anxiety already, Momoka is now also getting spurred on “to confront him” by her friends. Terrible advice, honestly. Especially since they couldn’t actually hear the conversation between Koyuki and Minato.

たぶん桃香が『小雪と遊ぶな』って言って、それで湊が爆発するんだと思う。桃香を怒らせたくない。でも小雪からそこまで離れるのも耐えられない。しかも『間違ったこと』は何ひとつできないから、余計にぐちゃぐちゃになる。

I imagine Momoka tells him he hang out with Koyun and that causes Minato to crash out because he doesn't want to make her upset but he also can't bear to separate himself that much from Koyun and he can't do anything "wrong" so it'll just mess him up even more.

ユキとアキネが誰に似てるか、今やっと分かった。呪術廻戦じゃなくて、ラブコメに迷い込んだ虎杖と小沢だ。

I just clocked who Yuki and Akine remind me of, they're like if Itadori and Ozawa ended up in a romcon instead of jjk

ユキがもし呪術師だったら、マジでいちばんゆるくて人当たりのいい呪術師になるな。

Yuki if he was a Cursed Sorcerer really would be the most chill and friendly one.

それな。アキネも小沢も中学のころは体が大きめで、痩せて、高校デビューでイメチェンしてる。ユキも悠仁も、二人がまだ垢抜けてなかった中学時代から優しく接してた。

Oh yeah - Both Akine and Ozawa were a larger size in middle school, lost weight, and changed up their style for their high school debut. Both Yuki and Yuji were friendly to them even in their more awkward middle school days.

最後の桃香のハイライト（？）集、ホラー映画から直で出てきたやつだろ。この作品からのハロウィンの贈り物ってことにしとく。

Momoka highlight (?) reel at the end coming straight out of a horror movie. I’ll take this as the series’s contribution to Halloween

あとね、きみ。幸せ「なんだと思う」って推測しなきゃいけない時点で、絶対に幸せじゃないから。湊にとっての幸せは、たぶん人と揉めないことだったんだろう。みんなを平和に保つのが自分の幸せ。少なくとも本人はそう思ってた。

Also, sweetie, if you have to guess you are happy, you definitely AREN't happy. To Minato happiness probably meant a lack of discord with other people. Keeping everyone at peace was his form of happiness or so he thought.

最後のあれを見たら、桃香が次回おとなしくしてるわけがない。ついに次で湊と桃香は終わりだろ！！！ 転落が楽しみすぎる。自分のしたことは自分に返ってくるって、これで学ぶかもな。

With what happened at the end, there's no way Momoka will stay quiet next episode, so I think finally next one minatoxmomoka will be over!!!!!! I'm so looking forward to her downfall. Maybe from this experience she'll learn that what goes around comes around.

悪いな桃香、あの笑顔で湊を赤くさせられるのは一人だけ。それはお前じゃない。文化祭は終わって、緊張と不安が高まっていく。

Sorry Momoka, there's only one person who could make Minato blush with that smile and it's not you.
The Culture Festival is behind us as tensions and uncertainty rise.

今回も最高の回だった。この作品、本当にいい。まだ7話くらい残ってるのが嬉しい。

Another great episode, this show is so good. I'm glad we still have like 7 more episodes.

陽太の絨毯ダンスに、謎のクリーチャー軍団、サバゲーとゾンビとパンケーキっていう発想そのもの。それに小雪のアホみたいなボヨンボヨンの剣。あの音のせいでバカみたいに笑いが止まらん。今回の絵のギャグ、レベルが違いすぎて草。

Between Yota's carpet dance, "las creaturas", the mere concept of airsoft zombie pancakes and Koyun's dumb boingy sword that keeps making me laugh like an idiot with the sound it makes, the visual gags were on another level this time lmao.

桃香が不幸になってるの、見てて最高。最初から勝ち目なんて無かったって気づいて、盛大に爆発するのが待ちきれない。

We love to see Momoka being miserable, I can't wait for her to crash out hard when she realises she never had any chance at all 😌

湊よ……今すぐ自由になれ。自由になるんだ！

Minato my boy...free yourself right now. FREE YOURSELF

この二人の時間、尊い。

The moment between them ❤️❤️

最後の場面、桃香の目に涙が浮かんでてめちゃくちゃスッキリした。湊を問い詰めるなり振るなり何でもいいから、この有害な関係が崩れてほしい。

That last scene gave me so much satisfaction tears in Momoka's eyes I hope she confronts Minato or dumps him or whatever and this toxic relation falls apart

今回の小雪と湊の場面、最高だった。
でも、あのED後の場面……なんてこった、ヤンデレだぜバットマン！

Loved the Koyuki/Minato moments in this episode.
But, that post-credits scene.....Holy yandere, Batman!

湊がちょっと心配だ。パニック発作の一歩手前に見える。頻脈みたいに、もう体にそれっぽい症状が出てるし。ここで桃香に怒りをぶつけられたら、一気に限界を超えるかもしれない。

I do worry a little for Minato. I got the feeling that he’s on the brink of a panic attack. He’s already showing physical symptoms that point in this direction such as tachycardia. An anger burst-out from Momoka might just push him over the edge.

桃香は自分を、男を手のひらで踊らせる略奪の策士だと思ってる。でも湊と小雪の関係には、とても太刀打ちできない。結局、策をめぐらせて自分を不幸に追い込んでるだけなんだよな。
湊と桃香が一緒にいても、全然通じ合ってる感じがしない。知らなかったら、付き合ってるなんて絶対思わないレベル。
話は桃香の爆発に向けて準備してるっぽい。重いドロドロを引き起こす大爆発だ。桃香が何をする気なのか気になる。今はできることがそんなに無さそうだし、小雪を追い払うとなればなおさらだ。

Momoka likes to see herself as the homewrecking mastermind who is letting her man dance on her palm. But with the Minato-Koyun dynamic she doesn't really stand a chance and in the end she is only masterminding herself into misery.
Whenever Minato and Momoka are together, I don't sense any chemistry between them. If I didn't know better, I would never get the idea that they are actually a couple.
The story looks like it's about to setup some crashout with Momoka, some big explosion that will cause some heavy drama. I wonder what Momoka is about to do, as there don't seem to be too many options for her right now, especially when it comes to get rid of Koyun.
