Nice of you guys to leave out the fact that Midori is also in love with Tamako.


wait, what? where?


From here

"On the other side of the street is a rival rice cake shop owner and his son, Mochikura. Their fathers tend to fight like dogs and monkeys, but Mochikura and Tamako have been childhood friends. Mochikura has secretly given his heart to Tamako, but she hasn't recognized what he's doing. With both Mochikura and Midori in love with Tamako, there's often battles unfolding around her."

That's a translation of part the synopsis that Animax briefly posted and subsequently removed.

@Fencedude. I'm a huge fan of yuri so if this does turn into a love triangle with a yuri side I'd be more than happy. But just because the K-On girls are friends doesn't mean they want to hump each other. The yuri is much stronger in something like Hidamari Sketch.

Some of us (like me) enjoy not having to deal with psychotic shippers. It still happens here, just not too much.

This new K-On!-like anime has some potential. Hopefully it will be as good as or better than Chuunibyou.

Sae and Hiro are a couple in denial. To not see the yuri overtones means you're blind.

I'm not sure but I think ANN's blurbs on the characters are just translations of the ones on the web site, so they're not leaving out any facts that weren't left out of the official materials too? I think that the synopsis that mentioned Midori's crush was taken down a little while after it came out, too, so they might be trying to keep that subplot a surprise or something... That's all I can think of, anyway.

Aaanyway these character designs are sooo cute, they look like extras from K-ON! And I love cooking, so I think it'll be fun! I hope it doesn't go the way of Hyouka and Chuunibyou and not stream anywhere! I wanna watch it!

Oh! For some reason I must have missed that! I thought I heard people complain about it not being licensed once and I assumed that was still the case... thanks a bunch for pointing that out, I've been wanting to watch this! :')

Agree 100% with the Sae/Hiro dynamic there. This season has ramped up their relationship as well. I almost spat my breakfast across the room when Hiro caught Nori walking out of Sae's room in the morning after sleeping over Smile)

You call that streaming? Ugh. That player is worse than the ANN one.

I only saw the first season but wasn't that relationship...rather one-sided? It's been forever since I watched it, though.

Not even remotely.

Also Honeycomb has basically been beating us over the head with all three major couples.
