Is Takeo going to continuously save people from absurd situations? I love this show but those moments kinda take me out of the story.

Takeo meets Yamato's parents for the first time on Christmas, but when terrorists take over the building Takeo is forced to reenact the plot to Die Hard, winning them over.

I just marathoned this show because I can't sleep and this show is fantastic. The first three episodes are so sweet that I may have developed diabetes. I was also cringing a lot but it was the good kind of cringe if that makes sense.

The action scenes are so lively that I don't really mind if they don't bother animating stuff like the mother walking away... They also got the cutaways of Takeo's reactions to Yamato down perfectly.

Just the best thing after a trying week.

I love that the girl was just behind him in that scene. How long had she been there?!

Just watched episode 1 following seeing a (spoiler, obviously) webm of a certain scene from episode 4 accompanied by Gureen Lagan music and I want to see how the hell it gets to that.

Observations so far;

1) Takeo is awesome

2) Rinko is hella squeeky which is odd because Megumi Han is not typically squeeky.

3) I was ready to assault viz with cold hard cash for the Digital Manga but that ain't happening cuz :shrug: :scotland:

Takeo is basically the platonic ideal of a pro wrestler, so this makes a lot of sense to me.

Wait what? Isn't Ame Nochi Hare done by someone named Baku (Bikke)?

Though that name really does look like a moniker. And the pretty boys in both Ame Nochi and Ore Monogatari look alarmingly similar...

It is like a shounen detective setting, only instead of dead bodies showing up everywhere it is situations which require herculean feats of strength.

I like that they're introducing Suna's sister as an actual character way earlier than the manga.

I'm also sad we still haven't seen Takeo's dad yet.

In true form of breaking the shoujo framework backwards, I want the main couple to not succeed! Well, there's no way I could really hate the Takeo-Yamato goof troop.

It certainly seems like that's the issue. Why else would she be feeling distressed at being called pure-hearted? It's also entirely in line with Takeo's character to misinterpret Yamato's feelings, and it represents a sensitive communication issue that many couples face early in a relationship, and doubly so for people in their first relationship.

I like that the sensible resolution to this is Sloppy makeouts, though I doubt we'll see that happen. Even when they get past this though, I get the feeling that Takeo drawing the wrong conclusion about Yamato is going to be a recurring theme, it's basically the only strictly negative character trait he has right now. So far it hasn't been a big deal, but I could see it causing a big conflict later on, specifically toward the end of the series/season.

I think a couple of little bits were added in this episode. I don't remember Afro's video.

Ai (?), Suna's sis, is another good character and I like the sassy voice she has in this.
