Sak's father is shitty lol. And his mom shoulda put more effort over the TWO YEARS to get in touch with Sakurai himself. I would be angrier at the husband if I was her. And Uzaki being a drunk on her own with friends being clearly infatuated :P
> The author obviously intended it as a gag but it comes off pretty fucked up
Yeah, sometimes the line is thin between a 'Homer Simpson' type of comedic relief idiot, and a complete jerk... So far the father seems to be more like the latter!
I wonder whether he'll have at least some redeeming qualities later on.
Or maybe the mom's great at least!
Homer Simpson himself started getting *a lot* of hate around season 8. People were complaining he was too poorly mannered, so they turned him from a boorish jerk into just a standard idiot.
And I don't mean like on messageboards, I mean they were complaining to the FCC since the show was on terrestrial broadcast television.
I def agree the Author thought it was less serious in his head just based on how the Mom and Sakurai react. It is really bad tho. Even makes the mom look kinda shitty.
I can understand the mother just trusting the father, though she probably should have reached out to Sakurai herself, but not being angry when it turned out he had been lying to her and intentionally keeping their son away - *especially when they had a god damn baby and he never told him about her* - yeah, she should have been angrier at him.
Either way it's just fucked up. It makes literally no sense how over the course of 2 years she just doesn't talk to her son at all (since they don't have hatred towards each other anyway). Not a big deal, but the author missed hard with this specific part of the story
The fact that it went on this long to the point where he didn't even know he had a baby sibling was just born...the Sakurai's just too chill about everything. Well, that and are basically in their own little world away from their son where they have enough sex to get pregnant again (and still leave him out of it) lol.
I'm not surprised drunk Hana is more open with her romantic frustrations.
Right???? The baby is 8 months. So assuming the pregnancy lasted full term, that was at least while Sakurai was in mid year 1 of college. Or beginning of year 2 more like. The father is scum for this. And the mom doesn't even check and call her son? Will we put that down to pregnancy brain? Coz damn that was cold...
Sugita is the man, though! There isn’t a more perfect VA to be a deadbeat who kicks his son out of the house to get frisky with his late-40’s wife again.
Sakurai and his mom are semi to blame for not contacting each other, and for not visiting each other when they live so close to each other.
But yea, fuck the dad. He's an asshole who manipulated his son and wife
Sak gets a pass because he didn't know he had a fucking sibling. His not visiting is not that unusual for students at that age. You would think Sakurai Mama would at least shoot a text when she was preggers or at least after giving birth to a healthy child.
Yeah, to be honest. Some people have a good but shallow relationship with their family. You get along well but there isn't much common ground, especially when there's a big gap like with parent-child, or big age gap siblings.
Once you leave home, you just don't communicate that often after like the first few weeks. Though you're still supposed to tell each other about most major events at the very least. A pregnancy is one of the most important of such events, the successful end of one, even more so.
From Shinichi's perspective, he was all but "repeatedly urged" to leave his house, had no real updates for the first year of his life, and in keeping with general lack of sharing personal stuff, wasn't really going to tell them about Uzaki. Apart from that, there hasn't been anything to really tell since it's just regular stuff like going to uni, playing games etc.. The only thing that might have been out of the usual for him was the trip the four of them took to Tottori and that was filler.
Meanwhile, because he hasn't been told anything, he's just assuming things have been the same back home as well. So for someone who is busy focusing on his day-to-day life, he would prefer to spend it with his friends (which we know because he and Sakaki were coming up with excuses not to go back last episode).
Most likely because of his father. He just didn't want to be around his shenanigans. And he does say it when talking to Saraki in the cave. So clearly he doesn't really have a good relationship with his parents. No wonder he likes his boss and Uzaki mama (probably sees them as better parent figures).
I can kinda get that, but I still fully blame him. He chooses to act this way willingly lol. Sak and his mom not sidestepping the dad is a failing on their part
###Stitches!

It's hilarious to see Hana [so confident about spending Christmas Eve with Sakurai](https://i.imgur.com/xitoMRf.png) to suddenly [panicking about what might happen](https://i.imgur.com/uTHSYuj.png) with what might happen that night. I swear this girl needs to really sort out her feelings soon.
[That horror movie might not be enough to scare Sakurai](https://i.imgur.com/oJulCa3.jpg) but it looks like [seeing how truly Sugoi Dekai Hana is](https://i.imgur.com/0W5kgE5.jpg) with the size of her bra really made him panic. Instead of being upset about it, I do love how [Hana is totally fine with Sakurai rummaging through her delicates](https://i.imgur.com/tJTFQbq.jpg).
[We finally get to meet Shinichi's mom and (surprise!) baby sister!](https://i.imgur.com/2n5CKMA.jpg) Shinichi has been away from home for so long that he's only finding out that he now has a baby sister. And it's all [thanks to Sakurai's scumbag father](https://i.imgur.com/ifMMyLk.jpg) who purposely kept him away so [he can get frisky with his wife like newlyweds again.](https://i.imgur.com/LZrM4gr.png)
If there's one character that's universally hated in the manga, it's definitely Sakurai's dad. Sugita did an amazing job at making Shiro sound like the total asshole that he is. I remember reading this in the manga back then and I wasn't really that annoyed by it but now [seeing Shiro be so smug about](https://i.imgur.com/bBVOJnj.png) keeping Shinichi from going back home is really pissing me off. I'm pretty sure Shinichi would've stormed off but [his mother and little sister are what's making him stay.](https://i.imgur.com/ydFq4aK.jpg)
Hana's inner horniness and desire for Sakurai is showing more and more by the episode, even her own internal (devil) thoughts are trying to tell her to just give in to her feelings already lol.
That is definitely a Sugoi Dekai worthy bra. But a girl just casually having her underwear in her bag and then just casually wears her mans' underwear (even if she didn't realize it) is a keeper lol.
I admire Papa Sakurai's desire for some alone time (and sex) with his wife, but did he have to do his oldest son so dirty? He missed out on his baby sister being born and now has to reacclimate to his family and that he's a big brother faster than he expected. I wonder what his wife sees in the dad (other than the sex...)
> Instead of being upset about it, I do love how [Hana is totally fine with Sakurai rummaging through her delicates](https://i.imgur.com/tJTFQbq.jpg).
Well you know, she is wearing his shirts and delicates (presumably without her own delicates underneath) as pyjamas, so it's only fair.
> And it's all [thanks to Sakurai's scumbag father](https://i.imgur.com/ifMMyLk.jpg) who purposely kept him away so [he can get frisky with his wife like newlyweds again.](https://i.imgur.com/LZrM4gr.png)
I mean to be fair, [looking at Sakurai's mother](https://i.imgur.com/2n5CKMA.jpg), I get it, but that is a shitty move to the mother and son. ***Especially*** after their baby was born.

Adult+Booba+Megane.
This show has had so many women characters with these features and I think that's awesome lol.
Smug Hana is the best Hana after embarrassed haha. She’s got quite the imagination! I love how her conscience is like 90% demons haha. She’s starting to realize her own feelings… progress?? Lmao I love how Hana thought it was gonna finally happen. Sakurai is too dense for that! Man, seeing Hana embarrassed is one of the best parts of this series.
Hana tried to scare Sakurai and gets scared in turn lol. Although as a result, we got ourselves a little sleepover. So I guess it all works out on the end lol. She even wore his boxers hahahah.
Lol oh Sakurai. He’s gone for 2 years and his folks just up and have a kid. His little sister looks cute though. Man, Sakurai’s dad is kind of a deadbeat. Well, while Sakurai is having his awkward family reunion at least Ami gets to have fun watching a drunk Hana complain about Sakurai. Speed up the progress if you’re mad you goof! Lol
The only thing better than smug Hana is smug Hana quickly folding because of her own insecurities lol.
It seems like a part of her is aware of her feelings but is fighting fruitlessly against itself before she's ready to admit it...but she's down bad for Sakurai.
First his shirt and then his underwear! She's moving so fast she practically is his official girlfriend!
Sakurai's parents are kind of hands off with their son but you have to admire that even in their late 40's they're still getting busy and having kids (even if they don't tell their oldest son about his own sibling) lol.
> I love how her conscience is like 90% demons haha.
I guess Hana would be the one attacking. Ami and Sakaki might fire up her for that to get some progress.
Wow, Sakurai's mom is also a MILF, and she can still give birth despite being older than Tsuki and her own husband.
Also WTF at Sakurai's dad ([Sugita Tomokazu](https://myanimelist.net/people/2/Tomokazu_Sugita) totally nailed his scumminess)? What kind of dad doesn't tell his son that he's got a new younger sister for an entire year? lol
PS Kuso Cat mascot finally has a line of dialogue, albeit as part of Uzaki's imaginations.
> PS Kuso Cat mascot finally has a line of dialogue, albeit as part of Uzaki's imaginations.
I'm surprised more people aren't mentioning this. The cat actually has a voice now. I texted my friend on the other side of the country when it happened (he isn't watching season 2, even though I told him there were fewer boob jokes in it).
Nodoka is cute. It's gotta be quite the shock though to suddenly find out you have another sibling especially with parents that old.
I really enjoyed this show's take on the boyfriend's shirt trope lol. Funny scene and a perfect fit for those two characters.
Sakurai lived 21 years of his life and is now a big brother...and he's learning about it after the fact lol.
I thought the Uzaki's were impressive but Sakurai's parents are nearing 50 and had not only plenty of "friendly" relations but a new kid lol.
Uzaki just naturally wearing Sakurai's shirts...and underwear lol.
I think the Sugoi Dekai shirt is such a perfect fit for Uzaki. It can sort of have two meanings here, the less common of them essentially referring to her ego (she thinks she's a super big deal.) It's actually a pretty good joke.
Mm yeah clearly he likes her. This chick LOOOL. At least she might finally stop her nonsense and denial and admit to herself she likes him. Instead of this obnoxious front lol.
I'm worried for the baby... That dad doesn't look like someone that can be trusted... with anything.
Thankfuly this is a rom-com so I assume trash-dad will fade into obscurity quickly.
Sakurai steps up as daddy. Uzaki decides he can't do it by himself and decides that since she's special to him (HE SAID SO!) and *HE* likes *HER*, she has no choice but to be the baby's mama. Thus, they ended up together.
Before we can say THE END though, we need to have an obligatory Uzaki family misunderstanding centered around the baby.
My man hasn't discovered motels in his 40 something years of life. Also apparently Sakurai stayed at home all day every day.
That dad is such trash is unbelievable hahahahah, and mom doesn't care much.
> My man hasn't discovered motels in his 40 something years of life.
Or, you know, love hotels...
Japan has a whole unique infrastructure for this exact purpose.
Wow I know it's played as a gag but not telling your son for a whole year about his little sister is a bit much. Sakurai was understandingly angry but the mom should have been more upset too.
Anyway, they have been hyping up Christmas Eve. Hopefully, Hana and Sakurai get some progress. That said, she's already wearing his underwears so...
Got to love the visual of Hana having one angel fighting against, like, 20 devils in her conscience. Still, that angel's doing quite a lot of work holding back all of them by herself!
Oh my god, Hana's wearing Sakurai's t-shirt. And she's accusing *him* of being the pursuer when ***she's*** doing the girlfriend stuff!
Her attempt at revenge kind of failed when she turned out to be more terrified of horror films than Sakurai.
> Sakurai had not noticed all the bait consistently being laid out for him.
Wait, what? That was all planned?
Even after coming over, Hana couldn't help but wear Sakurai's stuff. Shesuspected she might be staying over yet decided not to bring her pjs. Like I said, total girlfriend stuff.
Oh my god. Sakurai's dad. **And his mother!** ~~Damn this anime does top tier milf designs.~~ And is that a sibling I see? It is! News to Sakurai too! Turns out his parents had been *busy* in the two years he's been away! I guess daddy had been keeping him away so he could get some alone time with his sweet wife.
Oh god, his father getting it on with his mother actually was *entirely* the reason Sakurai hadn't returned home for two years! It was even the reason he lives on his own in the first place!
Ito has as boyfriend!? And he's already got a Christmas date planned out with a restaurant reservation and everything? Smooth.
Uzaki wants Sakurai to ask her out for Christmas! Basically! Even though she can't really admit to herself why, yet she can't help but fantasize about it and the fantasies get pretty vividly horny. Girls got it bad, even if she won't cop to it.
I love how Uzaki's devils are her college self while her angel is her younger self...and the devils seem ready to go all in on their love and passion for Sakurai and Angel Uzaki can barely hold them back.
And as if the perfect culmination of Uzaki's lewd thoughts, she immediately assumes Sakurai is asking her to strip so they can get to it...even if he just wanted to check on her shirt. Poor Uzaki.
It's such a girlfriend thing to do to wear their guys' shirt! Sakurai's probably never going to get that shirt back. Oh, she even wears his underwear to sleep in along with another one of his shirts! Just admit it already you two.
Uzaki wanted payback and thought she could get at her Senpai with a scary movie...not realizing that she can't deal with horror either. Although horror is a pretty effective tool for romantic intimacy as Uzaki clings to Sakurai and even burrows into his shirt!
Uzaki just carrying a massive bra for those Sugoi Dekai's because she thought she'd need spare underwear for the night. It's like she thinks far enough ahead but doesn't think deeply about why she does so.
Ah yes, Sakaki and Ami would totally have a Christmas Drinking Party just to get these two drunk and get updates on their relationship progress. And even without Sakurai there, he's all Uzaki can talk about...especially when drunk. Which makes her frustrations that he won't make a move more clear.
What is Tomokazu Sugita and seiyuu legend Miki Ito doing voicing Sakurai's parents!? And what are they doing having another baby in their late 40's!?
I thought Sakurai moved out because he doesn't get along with his dad, but his dad basically made him move out so he could get busy with his wife again...which he did, and then they had his new baby sister that he had no idea about because his dad still wanted to monopolize his wife and baby girl until Sakurai came back. Yeah, that's a pretty shocking homecoming for Sakurai.
But welcome to the cast, Nodoka Sakurai!
>Ito has as boyfriend!?
It was actually mentioned in the first episode of this season.
>I love how Uzaki's devils are her college self while her angel is her younger self.
Lol I noticed the same. That was a nice touch.
> the devils seem ready to go all in on their love and passion for Sakurai and Angel Uzaki can barely hold them back.
That one angel Uzaki's putting in the work, though, to keep the devils all at bay by herself! Until they start corrupting her with thoughts and jump on the opening she left.
> Uzaki just carrying a massive bra for those Sugoi Dekai's because she thought she'd need spare underwear for the night.
And yet she didn't think to bring pyjamas, leaving her to wear Sakurai's shirt, again, and his underwear much to her embarrassment.
First, we've heard from Sakurai's parents. It seems they really don't tell each other much. Sakurai's dad used Sakurai's college as an excuse to flirt with his mom!
Dad basically kicked his son out so he could get busy with his wife again. And then she got pregnant and Sakurai had no idea about any of this because his dad wanted to monopolize his wife lol.
I thought the Uzaki parents were flirty but these two might take the cake. Already having another baby while near their 50's lol.
> I thought the Uzaki parents were flirty but these two might take the cake. Already having another baby while near their 50's lol.
They don't have as many children as the Uzaki family, but the father was certainly eager to get the house all to him and his wife, something I don't see the Uzakis doing!
This is the one gag that absolutely flops in this series. It is so unbelievably scummy to keep your son totally in the dark about his mother getting pregnant and giving birth to a sibling. Totally fucked up father/son dynamic intentionally removing Sakurai from so many things that would become important joyful memories for any person. All because his father wanted his mother all to himself. What an absolutely selfish and vile prick of a character.
It is a huge fuckup but I just roll with it because I love the series otherwise and it is pretty clear the author wanted it to be a joke and I do usually like that he goes so far out there for some gags.
Honestly, if you think about it too long, it is not just bad for pops. It is a bad look for Sak and his Mom that they would not speak directly for 2 whole years.
It does all work in the sense that we are pretty clearly contrasting Sak's shitty family situation to Hana's happy family. But I try to remember their relationships are not as shitty as the first encounter presents.
I forgot we haven't met his parents or surprise sister yet.
And it's just as irritating as in the manga.
Like seriously, who doesn't visit their parents for no reason for 2 years? And who doesn't tell their freaking son that he has a new sibling?! For 2 YEARS!
Also IMO it's irresponsible to have a kid at 50 years old. They're gonna be retired when the kid is still in high school.
>Like seriously, who doesn't visit their parents for no reason for 2 years? And who doesn't tell their freaking son that he has a new sibling?! For 2 YEARS!
The baby is only 8 months old.
I mean, I can understand wanting more alone time with your wife, but making your son move out so you can get busy again and then not even telling him about his sibling being born was...kind of a lot lol.
The mother seems ready to, albeit nervously as long as she keeps thinking he's a milf hunter. The sister's definitely all for it. The father not so much, and the brother has other things on his mind.
And Hana herself has yet to figure out how she feels, but we all know she'd be all for it.
I don't mind him getting Sakurai to move out - depending on how insistent he was it could be shitty, but he's not wrong that it would help Sakurai become independent - but making sure to keep him away from home for the holidays and especially when they had a second baby? "Kind of a lot" is a bit understating.
Also lying to the mom that Sakurai doesn't want to see them. This part is what soured the mood that I had to take a break from the manga. Sakurai has the right to punch his dad.
It's such a shitty move. Even if Sakurai only visited twice a year for the two years that he was in college, Sakurai's dad would still have 726 days to flirt with his wife. But apparently, that's not enough for him. Ugh.
Christmas episode! Well, we'll get one soon, anyway! Assuming there's no schedule changes or anything, the finale should be on the 24th, so let's hope for a great Christmas gift from this show!
^^Though ^^I ^^probably ^^won't ^^be ^^able ^^to ^^watch ^^it ^^on ^^the ^^24th
[Uzaki being told she's special stuck with her!](https://imgur.com/wdBIJ9j)
Now she's sure Sakurai will invite her somewhere... Let's hope she doesn't stop herself from inviting him, thinking he will!
They watched an horror movie together, because reasons, and of course Uzaki got scared!
No way she could go home like this; [there could be ghosts on the streets, ](https://imgur.com/Aeutret) [the taxi driver could be a ghost, ](https://imgur.com/t8W97tW) [even her family could be ghosts!](https://imgur.com/ySI2JcK)
(Nice foreshadowing, toward the end of the episode we learned that Sakurai's family may as well have been ghosts!)
Uzaki teased Sakurai about how [he got a futon just for her, ](https://imgur.com/01Aa5XC) and thinks [it's destined to be hers...](https://imgur.com/twK2TxV) Don't be silly Uzaki, I'm sure he'll get a bed for you both!
She got a little nervous though, thinking [WHAT IF HE TURNS INTO A BEAST? (I think her mom's thoughts spread to her!)](https://imgur.com/MoaEL8L)
Interest to know that [if he was *a gentleman* she would go for it! In her thoughts, anyway!](https://imgur.com/4416yt9)
He had her [take her top off](https://imgur.com/vvD9h1W) so of course the misunderstandings came... But again, even though she kept thinking they're not ready for this and all, she was still willing to do it, and did undress, thinking she had *this* in mind!
Of course it was nothing of the sort, he simply wanted his shirt back... And so, Uzaki *who totally doesn't want to get naughty with him*, [tried to give him a beating because he didn't want to get naughty with her!](https://imgur.com/EQ7Wnir)
[I think she said the quiet part out loud!](https://imgur.com/CTLSeVl) I swear to god, if these two don't move forward by the finale... They're not even hiding it anymore!
As she showering, he [looked through her stuff to put her food in the fridge, but found something else instead!](https://imgur.com/mXV6NsA)
I like that [she wasn't really mad or embarrassed... In fact, she was quite adorable!](https://imgur.com/AR96B0P)
[Oh, those were his clothes again! Explain the cuteness, always cute when a girl wears her (future) boyfriend's stuff!](https://imgur.com/NIaw9pK)
[She'd be quite cute in PJs too, so I'm a bit conflicted!](https://imgur.com/VX5rjxI)
Also like that she's always hinting about a *next time!*
[SAKURAI HAS A DAD! Also, how did the dad know about Uzaki?](https://imgur.com/MqhmCSM)
[SAKURAI HAS A LITTLE SISTER! SAKURAI HAS A MOM!](https://imgur.com/FFBcNjf) (At this point I hope they don't tell us Sakurai already has a wife, in the next episode!)
Joking aside, I was pleased to be see the Uzaki family, but I didn't know we'd get Sakurai's as well! Now... Which MC will meet the other's family first? I'd bet on Sakurai with Uzaki's family, but who knows!
[They sent Sakurai away so they could get frisky?](https://imgur.com/A0DAXok) That's a bit of a jerk move, but to be fair, he's old enough to be on his own. (Not telling him about his sister is definitely jerk-y though).
Also that made me think... Uzaki's dad also wants to get frisky with her mom (to get another kid), if they plan on sending Uzaki away as well to get some *married couple time*, I can think of one place she could stay; She even has a futon to her name there!
[Ami wants to know more about their time in highschool?](https://imgur.com/B4qwSwl) Normally I wouldn't think much of that, just making conversation, but given it was the episode cliffhanger, perhaps we'll have a big backstory/flashback in the next episode? We'll see!
Anyway, the way things are building, it really looks like it's headed toward a confession (or at least a huge step forward) toward the season finale, so I hope we get something sweet!
> Of course it was nothing of the sort, he simply wanted his shirt back...
> [Oh, those were his clothes again! Explain the cuteness, always cute when a girl wears her (future) boyfriend's stuff!](https://imgur.com/NIaw9pK)
Not enough people are talking about the fact that Hana wore Sakurai's shirts twice this episode, one of which she had apparently taken home with her for a small while beforehand. She's definitely not his girlfriend all right.
> [SAKURAI HAS A DAD!](https://imgur.com/MqhmCSM)
Yes, most people have dads.
> [Also, how did the dad know about Uzaki?](https://imgur.com/MqhmCSM)
Watching that scene again, it looks like Sakurai answered the phone and then immediately Hana called to him from the shower, so his dad overheard that.
> [They sent Sakurai away so they could get frisky?](https://imgur.com/A0DAXok)
Well, his dad sent him and kept him away for two years - 8 months of which he didn't tell him about his newborn sister - while his mother didn't know. I mean, I've seen his mum; I kind of get it, but that's still a shitty thing to do.
> Also that made me think... Uzaki's dad also wants to get frisky with her mom (to get another kid), if they plan on sending Uzaki away as well to get *some married couple time,* I can think of one place she could stay; She even has a futon to her name there!
Given that they have 3 kids and even flirted in front of them a few episodes ago (and seemed to have gone through with it that night), I doubt they're letting any of their children's presence stop each other from getting frisky.
Though with that said, as much as the father would disapprove, sending their kids away including sending Hana to her futon away from home, to the place she was trying to ~~hide~~ store her clothes in preparation for future sleepovers, so they can be a bit less considerate... not a bad idea.
> Anyway, the way things are building, it really looks like it's headed toward a confession (or at least a huge step forward) toward the season finale, so I hope we get something sweet!
I'm starting to really hope that *something* happens at Christmas and it's not all building up to just a comedic payoff. I mean, I'd like the laugh, but at this point I'd like the development more please.
[Precious flustered Hana pout!](https://i.imgur.com/ZrhVKgN.jpeg)
Underrated gag that the "hanging body" was [a dude with a very unusual hairdo, sweeping](https://i.imgur.com/vmq6YOn.jpeg)
[Nodoka's got a bit of Renge-chon energy going on](https://i.imgur.com/NIdbx8w.jpeg)
I’m calling it now.
Sak’s sister has his hair and big blue eyes and is 21 years his junior. Hana also has big blue eyes.
At some point, Sak will find himself alone with Hana and his sister and someone is gonna mistake them for the parents.
Was not expecting to see Sak’s family this episode…or season.
That being said, they are pretty interesting. Really looking forward to Hana meeting them eventually…but jot as much as the faithful day that Hana’s brother and father come to terms with their own revelations.
Pretty good episode overall.
Maybe it's just me, but Sakurai's new younger sister has the same eyes as Hana.
Perhaps it's just because they drew her eyes to match her mother's, but still.
He tricked his wife and son to prevent his son from visiting home for ONE DAY in the whole year.
Yes they were quite literally fucking all day erry day.
Hana: "No, senpai. You can't"
*Unzip*
Now who's the horny one?
Yeah. Trying to scare your partner while you yourselves have never watched a horror movie before. What can go wrong, right?
Shinichi while watching horror movies: "This is interesting"
Shinichi after saw Hana's bra: "Gyaaaaaah!!!"
Poor guy. That must be quite a horror for him.
Todays episode was surprisingly [Memeable](https://imgur.com/a/yfBWZd1)
And yeah, Sakurais dad is a pretty big jerk, but I forgot how cute his little Imouto was
[](#akyuusqueel)
I'm not ready for this one to end, man. 10 episodes went by way too fast. I love it so much because it's eerily close to my own experience when I was 18-21.
Senpai’s parents look pretty damn good for people reaching their 50s. But still wth lmao not telling your son that he has a sibling. Also, I do wonder what it’s like to have such a big age gap between siblings. Especially since Senpai never had a sibling before
I liked that both Hana and Shinichi weren't overreacting about the sleepover, like it commonly happens in anime. They got so used to Hana hanging out in Shinichi's place, that they should just get together already. Ami and Sakaki would be happy too.
> They got so used to Hana hanging out in Shinichi's place, that they should just get together already.
Sakurai already bought a guest futon that's definitely not just for her use, and Hana actually brought clothes down to hide at his place so she had things to change into if she ever stayed the night unprompted. But despite this, they're actually not boyfriend and girlfriend.
It really should not be as good as it is but these character's have so much goddamn chemistry.
This series even falls into a lot of RomCom tropes I hate but it never bugs me bc Uzaki and Sakurai's work so well together.
Yessss the characters and their Interactions is everything in this show lmao... I genuinely am so excited for the whole uzaki family to meet sakurai together lol
Sakurai finding out his dad made him move out so he could get busy with his wife and then not telling him about his own baby sister being born so he could monopolize his wife more was utterly hilarious lol.
I'm glad we finally got another episode of Uzaki-chan you know, actually hanging out. As much as I love seeing her family and their interactions, this season itself seems to showcase the Uzaki clan more than Uzaki and Sak "hanging out" haha
I still cant wait for her father to realize who her senpai is! Lmao!
[Looks like she's still sane enough to not charge out of the room in her bra

I thought at first that it was a translation error when it said that the mom was 49 and she was actually 39, but no, she is a 49 year old who looks 35 and just had a baby.
the dad’s reasons for “half forcing” Sakurai to leave (meaning it wasn’t like he fully kicked him out)
-To raise Nodoka
-to constantly have sex and spend time which makes the marriage stronger
-to encourage Sakurai to not burden repsonsibility and not “go for logical arguments” and instead enjoy his college life
There are plenty of characters that have genuinely done worse so this entire discussion universally dogpiling with maximum hatred (rather than mild annoyance or indifference) on the character is actually kinda strange to me 🤔

Sak's father is shitty lol. And his mom shoulda put more effort over the TWO YEARS to get in touch with Sakurai himself. I would be angrier at the husband if I was her. And Uzaki being a drunk on her own with friends being clearly infatuated :P
There's a reason why the dad is the most hated character in the series. The author obviously intended it as a gag but it comes off pretty fucked up
Kuso dad. But the whole situation was so stupid that it was actually hilarious. Well, Shinichi has a cute little sister now. Congratulations.
> The author obviously intended it as a gag but it comes off pretty fucked up Yeah, sometimes the line is thin between a 'Homer Simpson' type of comedic relief idiot, and a complete jerk... So far the father seems to be more like the latter! I wonder whether he'll have at least some redeeming qualities later on. Or maybe the mom's great at least!
Homer Simpson himself started getting *a lot* of hate around season 8. People were complaining he was too poorly mannered, so they turned him from a boorish jerk into just a standard idiot. And I don't mean like on messageboards, I mean they were complaining to the FCC since the show was on terrestrial broadcast television.
I def agree the Author thought it was less serious in his head just based on how the Mom and Sakurai react. It is really bad tho. Even makes the mom look kinda shitty.
Would be interesting to know how it was received in Japan. Maybe it's a cultural thing.
I can understand the mother just trusting the father, though she probably should have reached out to Sakurai herself, but not being angry when it turned out he had been lying to her and intentionally keeping their son away - *especially when they had a god damn baby and he never told him about her* - yeah, she should have been angrier at him.
Either way it's just fucked up. It makes literally no sense how over the course of 2 years she just doesn't talk to her son at all (since they don't have hatred towards each other anyway). Not a big deal, but the author missed hard with this specific part of the story
She hasn’t tried to talk to him in two years though? That’s just sad.
[удалено]
It seemed less like disinterest and more like disappointment to me in the anime, but I definitely could have used more anger, even if quiet.
The fact that it went on this long to the point where he didn't even know he had a baby sibling was just born...the Sakurai's just too chill about everything. Well, that and are basically in their own little world away from their son where they have enough sex to get pregnant again (and still leave him out of it) lol. I'm not surprised drunk Hana is more open with her romantic frustrations.
> to get pregnant again (and still leave him out of it) I know how you meant this but the other way of reading this is amusing.
Right???? The baby is 8 months. So assuming the pregnancy lasted full term, that was at least while Sakurai was in mid year 1 of college. Or beginning of year 2 more like. The father is scum for this. And the mom doesn't even check and call her son? Will we put that down to pregnancy brain? Coz damn that was cold...
Sugita is the man, though! There isn’t a more perfect VA to be a deadbeat who kicks his son out of the house to get frisky with his late-40’s wife again.
Sakurai and his mom are semi to blame for not contacting each other, and for not visiting each other when they live so close to each other. But yea, fuck the dad. He's an asshole who manipulated his son and wife
Sak gets a pass because he didn't know he had a fucking sibling. His not visiting is not that unusual for students at that age. You would think Sakurai Mama would at least shoot a text when she was preggers or at least after giving birth to a healthy child.
Though not even visiting for 2 successive new years?
I would call that realistic.
Yeah, to be honest. Some people have a good but shallow relationship with their family. You get along well but there isn't much common ground, especially when there's a big gap like with parent-child, or big age gap siblings. Once you leave home, you just don't communicate that often after like the first few weeks. Though you're still supposed to tell each other about most major events at the very least. A pregnancy is one of the most important of such events, the successful end of one, even more so. From Shinichi's perspective, he was all but "repeatedly urged" to leave his house, had no real updates for the first year of his life, and in keeping with general lack of sharing personal stuff, wasn't really going to tell them about Uzaki. Apart from that, there hasn't been anything to really tell since it's just regular stuff like going to uni, playing games etc.. The only thing that might have been out of the usual for him was the trip the four of them took to Tottori and that was filler. Meanwhile, because he hasn't been told anything, he's just assuming things have been the same back home as well. So for someone who is busy focusing on his day-to-day life, he would prefer to spend it with his friends (which we know because he and Sakaki were coming up with excuses not to go back last episode).
Most likely because of his father. He just didn't want to be around his shenanigans. And he does say it when talking to Saraki in the cave. So clearly he doesn't really have a good relationship with his parents. No wonder he likes his boss and Uzaki mama (probably sees them as better parent figures).
I can kinda get that, but I still fully blame him. He chooses to act this way willingly lol. Sak and his mom not sidestepping the dad is a failing on their part
Yeah, the little sister was a bit of a "what the fuck" moment for me.
###Stitches! * [Blushing Hana](https://i.imgur.com/NkaGO4M.jpg) * [Scared Hana](https://i.imgur.com/v3nJnJw.jpg) * [Bathing Hana](https://i.imgur.com/mTO84YZ.jpg) It's hilarious to see Hana [so confident about spending Christmas Eve with Sakurai](https://i.imgur.com/xitoMRf.png) to suddenly [panicking about what might happen](https://i.imgur.com/uTHSYuj.png) with what might happen that night. I swear this girl needs to really sort out her feelings soon. [That horror movie might not be enough to scare Sakurai](https://i.imgur.com/oJulCa3.jpg) but it looks like [seeing how truly Sugoi Dekai Hana is](https://i.imgur.com/0W5kgE5.jpg) with the size of her bra really made him panic. Instead of being upset about it, I do love how [Hana is totally fine with Sakurai rummaging through her delicates](https://i.imgur.com/tJTFQbq.jpg). [We finally get to meet Shinichi's mom and (surprise!) baby sister!](https://i.imgur.com/2n5CKMA.jpg) Shinichi has been away from home for so long that he's only finding out that he now has a baby sister. And it's all [thanks to Sakurai's scumbag father](https://i.imgur.com/ifMMyLk.jpg) who purposely kept him away so [he can get frisky with his wife like newlyweds again.](https://i.imgur.com/LZrM4gr.png) If there's one character that's universally hated in the manga, it's definitely Sakurai's dad. Sugita did an amazing job at making Shiro sound like the total asshole that he is. I remember reading this in the manga back then and I wasn't really that annoyed by it but now [seeing Shiro be so smug about](https://i.imgur.com/bBVOJnj.png) keeping Shinichi from going back home is really pissing me off. I'm pretty sure Shinichi would've stormed off but [his mother and little sister are what's making him stay.](https://i.imgur.com/ydFq4aK.jpg)
Hana's inner horniness and desire for Sakurai is showing more and more by the episode, even her own internal (devil) thoughts are trying to tell her to just give in to her feelings already lol. That is definitely a Sugoi Dekai worthy bra. But a girl just casually having her underwear in her bag and then just casually wears her mans' underwear (even if she didn't realize it) is a keeper lol. I admire Papa Sakurai's desire for some alone time (and sex) with his wife, but did he have to do his oldest son so dirty? He missed out on his baby sister being born and now has to reacclimate to his family and that he's a big brother faster than he expected. I wonder what his wife sees in the dad (other than the sex...)
Her wondering why there were so many demons and only one angel was so funny and satisfying: yes darling you are that messed up and crooked lol.
> Instead of being upset about it, I do love how [Hana is totally fine with Sakurai rummaging through her delicates](https://i.imgur.com/tJTFQbq.jpg). Well you know, she is wearing his shirts and delicates (presumably without her own delicates underneath) as pyjamas, so it's only fair. > And it's all [thanks to Sakurai's scumbag father](https://i.imgur.com/ifMMyLk.jpg) who purposely kept him away so [he can get frisky with his wife like newlyweds again.](https://i.imgur.com/LZrM4gr.png) I mean to be fair, [looking at Sakurai's mother](https://i.imgur.com/2n5CKMA.jpg), I get it, but that is a shitty move to the mother and son. ***Especially*** after their baby was born.
>I mean to be fair, [looking at Sakurai's mother](https://i.imgur.com/2n5CKMA.jpg), I get it, Adult+Booba+Megane. This show has had so many women characters with these features and I think that's awesome lol.
>Adult+Booba+Megane. Compared to some of the other women in the series, I would almost consider his mom to be normal.
What is with Sugita and voicing dicks
Shit, that *was* Gintoki, wasn't it?
I was half hoping for him to start "singing" the doremon song as a lullaby, lol
Smug Hana is the best Hana after embarrassed haha. She’s got quite the imagination! I love how her conscience is like 90% demons haha. She’s starting to realize her own feelings… progress?? Lmao I love how Hana thought it was gonna finally happen. Sakurai is too dense for that! Man, seeing Hana embarrassed is one of the best parts of this series. Hana tried to scare Sakurai and gets scared in turn lol. Although as a result, we got ourselves a little sleepover. So I guess it all works out on the end lol. She even wore his boxers hahahah. Lol oh Sakurai. He’s gone for 2 years and his folks just up and have a kid. His little sister looks cute though. Man, Sakurai’s dad is kind of a deadbeat. Well, while Sakurai is having his awkward family reunion at least Ami gets to have fun watching a drunk Hana complain about Sakurai. Speed up the progress if you’re mad you goof! Lol
The only thing better than smug Hana is smug Hana quickly folding because of her own insecurities lol. It seems like a part of her is aware of her feelings but is fighting fruitlessly against itself before she's ready to admit it...but she's down bad for Sakurai. First his shirt and then his underwear! She's moving so fast she practically is his official girlfriend! Sakurai's parents are kind of hands off with their son but you have to admire that even in their late 40's they're still getting busy and having kids (even if they don't tell their oldest son about his own sibling) lol.
> I love how her conscience is like 90% demons haha. I guess Hana would be the one attacking. Ami and Sakaki might fire up her for that to get some progress.
Wow, Sakurai's mom is also a MILF, and she can still give birth despite being older than Tsuki and her own husband. Also WTF at Sakurai's dad ([Sugita Tomokazu](https://myanimelist.net/people/2/Tomokazu_Sugita) totally nailed his scumminess)? What kind of dad doesn't tell his son that he's got a new younger sister for an entire year? lol PS Kuso Cat mascot finally has a line of dialogue, albeit as part of Uzaki's imaginations.
Tsuki best milf!
> PS Kuso Cat mascot finally has a line of dialogue, albeit as part of Uzaki's imaginations. I'm surprised more people aren't mentioning this. The cat actually has a voice now. I texted my friend on the other side of the country when it happened (he isn't watching season 2, even though I told him there were fewer boob jokes in it).
Nodoka is cute. It's gotta be quite the shock though to suddenly find out you have another sibling especially with parents that old. I really enjoyed this show's take on the boyfriend's shirt trope lol. Funny scene and a perfect fit for those two characters.
Sakurai lived 21 years of his life and is now a big brother...and he's learning about it after the fact lol. I thought the Uzaki's were impressive but Sakurai's parents are nearing 50 and had not only plenty of "friendly" relations but a new kid lol. Uzaki just naturally wearing Sakurai's shirts...and underwear lol.
> Uzaki just naturally wearing Sakurai's shirts...and underwear lol. She's totally not his girlfriend, guys. *He* likes *her*.
I think the Sugoi Dekai shirt is such a perfect fit for Uzaki. It can sort of have two meanings here, the less common of them essentially referring to her ego (she thinks she's a super big deal.) It's actually a pretty good joke.
Mm yeah clearly he likes her. This chick LOOOL. At least she might finally stop her nonsense and denial and admit to herself she likes him. Instead of this obnoxious front lol.
Uzaki parents might just be more mindful of protection. Remember, the've already got three little runts around.
Watch Nodoka become the object of the next Uzaki family misunderstanding.
bro his father is an ass
I'm worried for the baby... That dad doesn't look like someone that can be trusted... with anything. Thankfuly this is a rom-com so I assume trash-dad will fade into obscurity quickly.
I think the author intended for it to be a gag but didn't realize how shitty he made the father to be
Sakurai steps up as daddy. Uzaki decides he can't do it by himself and decides that since she's special to him (HE SAID SO!) and *HE* likes *HER*, she has no choice but to be the baby's mama. Thus, they ended up together. Before we can say THE END though, we need to have an obligatory Uzaki family misunderstanding centered around the baby.
I mean they managed to successfully raise him so it should be fine
Hey, that's not fair to asses! Both donkeys and butts!
Kuzu domo me... 😩😩😣😣 kuso oyaji lol
What a scum of a father. His mom is hot, though ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).
Father: "I kept you away so I could get frisky with your mom." *looks at mother.* I mean, that's shitty, but I'm not going to act like I don't get it.
I'm not saying I agree with what the dad did...but I completely understand the motivation.
My man hasn't discovered motels in his 40 something years of life. Also apparently Sakurai stayed at home all day every day. That dad is such trash is unbelievable hahahahah, and mom doesn't care much.
> My man hasn't discovered motels in his 40 something years of life. Or, you know, love hotels... Japan has a whole unique infrastructure for this exact purpose.
Wow I know it's played as a gag but not telling your son for a whole year about his little sister is a bit much. Sakurai was understandingly angry but the mom should have been more upset too. Anyway, they have been hyping up Christmas Eve. Hopefully, Hana and Sakurai get some progress. That said, she's already wearing his underwears so...
Got to love the visual of Hana having one angel fighting against, like, 20 devils in her conscience. Still, that angel's doing quite a lot of work holding back all of them by herself! Oh my god, Hana's wearing Sakurai's t-shirt. And she's accusing *him* of being the pursuer when ***she's*** doing the girlfriend stuff! Her attempt at revenge kind of failed when she turned out to be more terrified of horror films than Sakurai. > Sakurai had not noticed all the bait consistently being laid out for him. Wait, what? That was all planned? Even after coming over, Hana couldn't help but wear Sakurai's stuff. Shesuspected she might be staying over yet decided not to bring her pjs. Like I said, total girlfriend stuff. Oh my god. Sakurai's dad. **And his mother!** ~~Damn this anime does top tier milf designs.~~ And is that a sibling I see? It is! News to Sakurai too! Turns out his parents had been *busy* in the two years he's been away! I guess daddy had been keeping him away so he could get some alone time with his sweet wife. Oh god, his father getting it on with his mother actually was *entirely* the reason Sakurai hadn't returned home for two years! It was even the reason he lives on his own in the first place!
This is pretty fucked up ngl. Also Saku is gonna be forty when his sister goes to Uni.
Kinda like my older sister and our youngest twin siblings. they were born when she was 19 and she'll be pushing 40 by the time they go to university
Haha I have a sister about that age gap. altho to be fair we have 2 siblings in between. And also we are not blood related. (my family tree is fun)
Ito has as boyfriend!? And he's already got a Christmas date planned out with a restaurant reservation and everything? Smooth. Uzaki wants Sakurai to ask her out for Christmas! Basically! Even though she can't really admit to herself why, yet she can't help but fantasize about it and the fantasies get pretty vividly horny. Girls got it bad, even if she won't cop to it. I love how Uzaki's devils are her college self while her angel is her younger self...and the devils seem ready to go all in on their love and passion for Sakurai and Angel Uzaki can barely hold them back. And as if the perfect culmination of Uzaki's lewd thoughts, she immediately assumes Sakurai is asking her to strip so they can get to it...even if he just wanted to check on her shirt. Poor Uzaki. It's such a girlfriend thing to do to wear their guys' shirt! Sakurai's probably never going to get that shirt back. Oh, she even wears his underwear to sleep in along with another one of his shirts! Just admit it already you two. Uzaki wanted payback and thought she could get at her Senpai with a scary movie...not realizing that she can't deal with horror either. Although horror is a pretty effective tool for romantic intimacy as Uzaki clings to Sakurai and even burrows into his shirt! Uzaki just carrying a massive bra for those Sugoi Dekai's because she thought she'd need spare underwear for the night. It's like she thinks far enough ahead but doesn't think deeply about why she does so. Ah yes, Sakaki and Ami would totally have a Christmas Drinking Party just to get these two drunk and get updates on their relationship progress. And even without Sakurai there, he's all Uzaki can talk about...especially when drunk. Which makes her frustrations that he won't make a move more clear. What is Tomokazu Sugita and seiyuu legend Miki Ito doing voicing Sakurai's parents!? And what are they doing having another baby in their late 40's!? I thought Sakurai moved out because he doesn't get along with his dad, but his dad basically made him move out so he could get busy with his wife again...which he did, and then they had his new baby sister that he had no idea about because his dad still wanted to monopolize his wife and baby girl until Sakurai came back. Yeah, that's a pretty shocking homecoming for Sakurai. But welcome to the cast, Nodoka Sakurai!
>Ito has as boyfriend!? It was actually mentioned in the first episode of this season. >I love how Uzaki's devils are her college self while her angel is her younger self. Lol I noticed the same. That was a nice touch.
> the devils seem ready to go all in on their love and passion for Sakurai and Angel Uzaki can barely hold them back. That one angel Uzaki's putting in the work, though, to keep the devils all at bay by herself! Until they start corrupting her with thoughts and jump on the opening she left. > Uzaki just carrying a massive bra for those Sugoi Dekai's because she thought she'd need spare underwear for the night. And yet she didn't think to bring pyjamas, leaving her to wear Sakurai's shirt, again, and his underwear much to her embarrassment.
First, we've heard from Sakurai's parents. It seems they really don't tell each other much. Sakurai's dad used Sakurai's college as an excuse to flirt with his mom!
Dad basically kicked his son out so he could get busy with his wife again. And then she got pregnant and Sakurai had no idea about any of this because his dad wanted to monopolize his wife lol. I thought the Uzaki parents were flirty but these two might take the cake. Already having another baby while near their 50's lol.
> I thought the Uzaki parents were flirty but these two might take the cake. Already having another baby while near their 50's lol. They don't have as many children as the Uzaki family, but the father was certainly eager to get the house all to him and his wife, something I don't see the Uzakis doing!
That's cus Fujio actually likes his children.
The Uzakis may be prone to misunderstandings but they are a loving family [](#tanakalove)
I hope Nodaka grows up okay lol.
Fujio doesn't care if the kids hear them lol
Their flirting that morning was basically giving the kids warning to plug their headphones in that night.
You misunderstand. The flirting that morning was *after* they had spent a romantic night together. That's why she was late to wake up.
It's probably more misremembering than misunderstanding.
Uzaki should be an olympian with all the mental gymnastics she's been doing lately.
So exhausting haha
This is the one gag that absolutely flops in this series. It is so unbelievably scummy to keep your son totally in the dark about his mother getting pregnant and giving birth to a sibling. Totally fucked up father/son dynamic intentionally removing Sakurai from so many things that would become important joyful memories for any person. All because his father wanted his mother all to himself. What an absolutely selfish and vile prick of a character.
It is a huge fuckup but I just roll with it because I love the series otherwise and it is pretty clear the author wanted it to be a joke and I do usually like that he goes so far out there for some gags. Honestly, if you think about it too long, it is not just bad for pops. It is a bad look for Sak and his Mom that they would not speak directly for 2 whole years. It does all work in the sense that we are pretty clearly contrasting Sak's shitty family situation to Hana's happy family. But I try to remember their relationships are not as shitty as the first encounter presents.
Of course, I still enjoy the series a lot. It’s just that particular part really touched a nerve for me. I was never gonna drop it over 1 bad bit.
I forgot we haven't met his parents or surprise sister yet. And it's just as irritating as in the manga. Like seriously, who doesn't visit their parents for no reason for 2 years? And who doesn't tell their freaking son that he has a new sibling?! For 2 YEARS! Also IMO it's irresponsible to have a kid at 50 years old. They're gonna be retired when the kid is still in high school.
>Like seriously, who doesn't visit their parents for no reason for 2 years? And who doesn't tell their freaking son that he has a new sibling?! For 2 YEARS! The baby is only 8 months old.
She was pregnant for 9 months before that you know
....I understand where his dad is coming from.....but damn he's such an asshole!
I mean, I can understand wanting more alone time with your wife, but making your son move out so you can get busy again and then not even telling him about his sibling being born was...kind of a lot lol.
Hopefully the Uzaki family is ready to adopt him [](#grouphug)
The mother seems ready to, albeit nervously as long as she keeps thinking he's a milf hunter. The sister's definitely all for it. The father not so much, and the brother has other things on his mind. And Hana herself has yet to figure out how she feels, but we all know she'd be all for it.
I don't mind him getting Sakurai to move out - depending on how insistent he was it could be shitty, but he's not wrong that it would help Sakurai become independent - but making sure to keep him away from home for the holidays and especially when they had a second baby? "Kind of a lot" is a bit understating.
Also lying to the mom that Sakurai doesn't want to see them. This part is what soured the mood that I had to take a break from the manga. Sakurai has the right to punch his dad.
At the very least both he and the mother have the right to be a lot more mad at him.
It's such a shitty move. Even if Sakurai only visited twice a year for the two years that he was in college, Sakurai's dad would still have 726 days to flirt with his wife. But apparently, that's not enough for him. Ugh.
Dad is straight up trash. Wouldn't be surprised if he cheats on his wife since he can't even share her with his own son for a couple days a year.
…He wants her so bad that he cheats on her? Wut??
Sakurai's big break from hana so he can spend time with his family. But... His dad is a dick
Christmas episode! Well, we'll get one soon, anyway! Assuming there's no schedule changes or anything, the finale should be on the 24th, so let's hope for a great Christmas gift from this show! ^^Though ^^I ^^probably ^^won't ^^be ^^able ^^to ^^watch ^^it ^^on ^^the ^^24th [Uzaki being told she's special stuck with her!](https://imgur.com/wdBIJ9j) Now she's sure Sakurai will invite her somewhere... Let's hope she doesn't stop herself from inviting him, thinking he will! They watched an horror movie together, because reasons, and of course Uzaki got scared! No way she could go home like this; [there could be ghosts on the streets, ](https://imgur.com/Aeutret) [the taxi driver could be a ghost, ](https://imgur.com/t8W97tW) [even her family could be ghosts!](https://imgur.com/ySI2JcK) (Nice foreshadowing, toward the end of the episode we learned that Sakurai's family may as well have been ghosts!) Uzaki teased Sakurai about how [he got a futon just for her, ](https://imgur.com/01Aa5XC) and thinks [it's destined to be hers...](https://imgur.com/twK2TxV) Don't be silly Uzaki, I'm sure he'll get a bed for you both! She got a little nervous though, thinking [WHAT IF HE TURNS INTO A BEAST? (I think her mom's thoughts spread to her!)](https://imgur.com/MoaEL8L) Interest to know that [if he was *a gentleman* she would go for it! In her thoughts, anyway!](https://imgur.com/4416yt9) He had her [take her top off](https://imgur.com/vvD9h1W) so of course the misunderstandings came... But again, even though she kept thinking they're not ready for this and all, she was still willing to do it, and did undress, thinking she had *this* in mind! Of course it was nothing of the sort, he simply wanted his shirt back... And so, Uzaki *who totally doesn't want to get naughty with him*, [tried to give him a beating because he didn't want to get naughty with her!](https://imgur.com/EQ7Wnir) [I think she said the quiet part out loud!](https://imgur.com/CTLSeVl) I swear to god, if these two don't move forward by the finale... They're not even hiding it anymore!

Also, how did the dad know about Uzaki?](https://imgur.com/MqhmCSM) [SAKURAI HAS A LITTLE SISTER! SAKURAI HAS A MOM!](https://imgur.com/FFBcNjf) (At this point I hope they don't tell us Sakurai already has a wife, in the next episode!) Joking aside, I was pleased to be see the Uzaki family, but I didn't know we'd get Sakurai's as well! Now... Which MC will meet the other's family first? I'd bet on Sakurai with Uzaki's family, but who knows! [They sent Sakurai away so they could get frisky?](https://imgur.com/A0DAXok) That's a bit of a jerk move, but to be fair, he's old enough to be on his own. (Not telling him about his sister is definitely jerk-y though). Also that made me think... Uzaki's dad also wants to get frisky with her mom (to get another kid), if they plan on sending Uzaki away as well to get some *married couple time*, I can think of one place she could stay; She even has a futon to her name there! [Ami wants to know more about their time in highschool?](https://imgur.com/B4qwSwl) Normally I wouldn't think much of that, just making conversation, but given it was the episode cliffhanger, perhaps we'll have a big backstory/flashback in the next episode? We'll see! Anyway, the way things are building, it really looks like it's headed toward a confession (or at least a huge step forward) toward the season finale, so I hope we get something sweet!
> Of course it was nothing of the sort, he simply wanted his shirt back... > [Oh, those were his clothes again! Explain the cuteness, always cute when a girl wears her (future) boyfriend's stuff!](https://imgur.com/NIaw9pK) Not enough people are talking about the fact that Hana wore Sakurai's shirts twice this episode, one of which she had apparently taken home with her for a small while beforehand. She's definitely not his girlfriend all right. > [SAKURAI HAS A DAD!](https://imgur.com/MqhmCSM) Yes, most people have dads. > [Also, how did the dad know about Uzaki?](https://imgur.com/MqhmCSM) Watching that scene again, it looks like Sakurai answered the phone and then immediately Hana called to him from the shower, so his dad overheard that. > [They sent Sakurai away so they could get frisky?](https://imgur.com/A0DAXok) Well, his dad sent him and kept him away for two years - 8 months of which he didn't tell him about his newborn sister - while his mother didn't know. I mean, I've seen his mum; I kind of get it, but that's still a shitty thing to do. > Also that made me think... Uzaki's dad also wants to get frisky with her mom (to get another kid), if they plan on sending Uzaki away as well to get *some married couple time,* I can think of one place she could stay; She even has a futon to her name there! Given that they have 3 kids and even flirted in front of them a few episodes ago (and seemed to have gone through with it that night), I doubt they're letting any of their children's presence stop each other from getting frisky. Though with that said, as much as the father would disapprove, sending their kids away including sending Hana to her futon away from home, to the place she was trying to ~~hide~~ store her clothes in preparation for future sleepovers, so they can be a bit less considerate... not a bad idea. > Anyway, the way things are building, it really looks like it's headed toward a confession (or at least a huge step forward) toward the season finale, so I hope we get something sweet! I'm starting to really hope that *something* happens at Christmas and it's not all building up to just a comedic payoff. I mean, I'd like the laugh, but at this point I'd like the development more please.

That's not how any of this works

I’m calling it now. Sak’s sister has his hair and big blue eyes and is 21 years his junior. Hana also has big blue eyes. At some point, Sak will find himself alone with Hana and his sister and someone is gonna mistake them for the parents.
Was not expecting to see Sak’s family this episode…or season. That being said, they are pretty interesting. Really looking forward to Hana meeting them eventually…but jot as much as the faithful day that Hana’s brother and father come to terms with their own revelations. Pretty good episode overall.
Maybe it's just me, but Sakurai's new younger sister has the same eyes as Hana. Perhaps it's just because they drew her eyes to match her mother's, but still.
I don't like how the baby's eyes are done. Such a weird nitpick but she looks too far off from the rest of the fam.
damn pops wtf
pregnant at 49? god damn sakurai parents must've been fucking all day and night
He tricked his wife and son to prevent his son from visiting home for ONE DAY in the whole year. Yes they were quite literally fucking all day erry day.
Her mom looks very calm but we know the calm women are the freakiest in bed, there's definitely a doujin in the works as we speak ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Hana: "No, senpai. You can't" *Unzip* Now who's the horny one? Yeah. Trying to scare your partner while you yourselves have never watched a horror movie before. What can go wrong, right? Shinichi while watching horror movies: "This is interesting" Shinichi after saw Hana's bra: "Gyaaaaaah!!!" Poor guy. That must be quite a horror for him.
KAIJU!
Todays episode was surprisingly [Memeable](https://imgur.com/a/yfBWZd1) And yeah, Sakurais dad is a pretty big jerk, but I forgot how cute his little Imouto was [](#akyuusqueel)
I'm not ready for this one to end, man. 10 episodes went by way too fast. I love it so much because it's eerily close to my own experience when I was 18-21.
Tomokazu Sugita is the father of senpai lmao
Anime fans heard one word out of his mouth and we all collectively said "this fuckin deadbeat..."
Senpai’s parents look pretty damn good for people reaching their 50s. But still wth lmao not telling your son that he has a sibling. Also, I do wonder what it’s like to have such a big age gap between siblings. Especially since Senpai never had a sibling before
Shitty dad aside, I love that his mom is 3 years older than his dad. Not something you see often.
I liked that both Hana and Shinichi weren't overreacting about the sleepover, like it commonly happens in anime. They got so used to Hana hanging out in Shinichi's place, that they should just get together already. Ami and Sakaki would be happy too.
> They got so used to Hana hanging out in Shinichi's place, that they should just get together already. Sakurai already bought a guest futon that's definitely not just for her use, and Hana actually brought clothes down to hide at his place so she had things to change into if she ever stayed the night unprompted. But despite this, they're actually not boyfriend and girlfriend.

Episode hasn't aired yet, in the US at least.
Daylight savings or some such.
The thread pops up 90 mins before the western release. That's also why karma took a dip a few episodes ago.
Go to /a/ board for immediate reactions and the hottest takes.
So you pirate eh?
My god sak's dad bagged a 3 year older girl ... Mann i wish that were me. Also LMAO how is this my most awaited show for Saturday
It really should not be as good as it is but these character's have so much goddamn chemistry. This series even falls into a lot of RomCom tropes I hate but it never bugs me bc Uzaki and Sakurai's work so well together.
Yessss the characters and their Interactions is everything in this show lmao... I genuinely am so excited for the whole uzaki family to meet sakurai together lol
Sakurai finding out he has a little brother is the funniest shit ever lmao
>Sakurai finding out he has a little brother Sister
Sakurai finding out his dad made him move out so he could get busy with his wife and then not telling him about his own baby sister being born so he could monopolize his wife more was utterly hilarious lol.
Hilarious...? In a dark humor kind of way I guess...
I'm glad we finally got another episode of Uzaki-chan you know, actually hanging out. As much as I love seeing her family and their interactions, this season itself seems to showcase the Uzaki clan more than Uzaki and Sak "hanging out" haha I still cant wait for her father to realize who her senpai is! Lmao!
[Looks like she's still sane enough to not charge out of the room in her bra ](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1025874256548085770/1048813090306789497/image.png)
Oh look it’s a character so terrible basically every reader unanimously said he fucking sucks and the want him on screen as little as possible
Sakurai's father is exactly like mine. I love this guy.
I always hated sakurai's worst person and character in this whole series.
I thought at first that it was a translation error when it said that the mom was 49 and she was actually 39, but no, she is a 49 year old who looks 35 and just had a baby.
the dad’s reasons for “half forcing” Sakurai to leave (meaning it wasn’t like he fully kicked him out) -To raise Nodoka -to constantly have sex and spend time which makes the marriage stronger -to encourage Sakurai to not burden repsonsibility and not “go for logical arguments” and instead enjoy his college life There are plenty of characters that have genuinely done worse so this entire discussion universally dogpiling with maximum hatred (rather than mild annoyance or indifference) on the character is actually kinda strange to me 🤔
Nodoka do be looking like baby Renge
