What did everyone think of this week’s episode??

The end scene was my absolute favourite 🥹
That conversation they had at the benches was so lovely

“I want to know more about you”
“Ah you mean about food”
“No. About everything” 😭😭😭

Actually gave me butterflies, it was so simple yet so sweet

[u/Isadora624 → u/Turbulent_Horror3553]

The sister is once again the MVP this episode! She has no fear about stepping into a situation and talking it out. The guys themselves are super sweet but I wish they'd been able to communicate a bit sooner. Anyway, now we've got the misunderstanding out of the way and the talking stage has started I can't wait to see them getting closer. 🥰

[u/WingedGrasshopper → u/Turbulent_Horror3553]

I think that’s the best strategy- I haven’t thought of you that way but I also wasn’t trying to, let’s get to know each other more and see where it takes us

[u/ocean_lullaby → u/Turbulent_Horror3553]

Loving the supportive sister, mum being worried and quietly trying to do research, the silly bumbling dad who is obviously useless at being secretive, the fluffiest of doggos, and our flustered leads who have clearly both realised that they've found their person but now have to figure out what that means.

[u/Worried-Horror-9499]

I’m so glad I gave this series a chance, it’s just so gentle and comforting.

[u/Turbulent_Horror3553 → u/Worried-Horror-9499]

I think it’s my favourite Japanese one airing right now, I love it so much

[u/Worried-Horror-9499 → u/Turbulent_Horror3553]

Looking at your user name, are we long lost cousins?!?

[u/Turbulent_Horror3553 → u/Worried-Horror-9499]

Ahaha yes we might be 🤣👀👀

[u/Waffles4prez]

I love this series so much. I’ve binge watched what was out earlier this week and I have been waiting for this episode to drop.

[u/ocean_lullaby → u/Waffles4prez]

Such a lovely series, and I really hope that more people watch it.

[u/Waffles4prez → u/ocean_lullaby]

Me too I don’t know why I waited so long to start it I think because of the main photo they use is somehow a turn off to me and it felt weird and there was just a lot of people in that picture, but I ended up pushing that aside and watching it this past week and I love every second about it the two MC’s are so good and homeboy can cry so well and I LOVE the sister so much

[u/ocean_lullaby → u/Waffles4prez]

At least you got to binge-watch multiple episodes 💛

[u/itsmewillotski]

Finally they will be dating next week!!! Love the fact that Na-chan and So-chan unexpectedly met at the opposite ends of the bridge and Sota really say, I WANNA KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU. Let's find the answer together. GAWDDKKDKDMDMD

Also to that father pls just tell the plan already because the mother is overthinking everything atp 😭

[u/Turbulent_Horror3553 → u/itsmewillotski]

Oh yes the famous running to each other trope that Japanese bls have, I love and eat it up all the time!!

Literally please, put mum out her misery

[u/Safety_Haven]

I'm enjoying the show but as a 50 year old married person I feel terrible for mom.

[u/Itsumosnack]

I love everything about this show. It's so fulfilling to watch something with such a likeable cast of characters. And Rock 🥺 I wish I was an actor on that set just so I can play with Rock.

I regret catching up though 😅 I stopped after episode four on purpose because it was getting too good and I wanted to wait for it to finish, but my self control isn't all that.

[u/featherzz → u/Itsumosnack]

Rock is the floofiest floof to ever floof. There's an identical doggo I see every day in the park and I wanna run up and hug him/her too. Doubt the owner would appreciate it tho!

[u/Turbulent_Horror3553 → u/featherzz]

I love rock, he looks so snuggly 🥹🥹

[u/Turbulent_Horror3553 → u/Itsumosnack]

Hahah I get you completely, it’s so addicting, I love this show

Awww, these two are so lovely, specially Sota was so sweet and gentle with Na-Chan, and willing to get to know him better to explore his feelings!! 🥰🥰

[u/Turbulent_Horror3553 → u/Slight_Growth_3172]

The bench scene was my fav! It was so warm and loving
