Subaru is really happy to have the photos and says she’d do anything for these. This gives Nakuru an idea and she takes up Kureha on her offer and has her let her into Kinjirou’s room. Since Kinjirou is out spending the night at his friend Kurose’s place there’s no problem in letting Nakuru into the room.

September 11:500 PM

Nakuru finishes her explanation to Kinjirou and asks him to go on a date with her. That night Nakuru and Kinjirou go out to a date spot and Nakuru holds Kinjirou’s hand. Kinjirou notices her hand shaking and asks her if it’s her first date. Nakuru blushes and avoids the issue and points to a spot for them to sit and eat. Nakuru feeds Kinjirou and offers him some tea. Kinjirou tries not to let his guard down and tries to remember that she’s a “glasses fetishist”. Nakuru tells Kinjirou that she’s in a slump with her BL writing due to a certain event, and asks Kinjirou what he thinks of her chest and Kinjirou puts on dissatisfied face. Nakuru tells him that recently a boy in her class confessed to her; though she rejected him because she decided to completely devote her high school life to writing BL. Kinjirou asks her what that has to do with her chest and Nakuru tells him that she didn’t understand why she would get confessed to and came to the conclusion that it’s because of her large bust.

Nakuru asks Kinjirou to rub her chest so it’ll get smaller, because she has a complex about her large bust and wishes they were smaller. Kinjirou tells her that isn’t how it works and that everyone has a something about themselves that they don’t like and uses himself as an example since he tells her that he has something he’d like to change about himself. Kinjirou also tells her that even though boys like large breasts, they won’t fall in love with a girl just for that. Nakuru asks him to prove it otherwise she won’t be able to write BL and hugs Kinjirou. Nakuru tell him that she thought he could save her, and Kinjirou interprets her words as “if he can withstand her breasts then she can conquer her complex about her breasts and get over her problem. Kinjirou agrees, and Nakuru embraces Kinjirou, and Kinjirou fights off his nosebleed. Nakuru compliments him on his ability to withstand her breasts and calls him the messiah of BL and this causes Kinjirou to push her away and knock off her glasses. Kinjirou gets entranced by Nakuru’s glasses-less appearance and wonders if this is what’s meant by “gap-moe”. Nakuru thanks Kinjirou, and her heart starts beating faster when she sees him and comments to herself that he looks cooler than usual. Nakuru gets started and starts to run away.

Opinions:

So everything wrapped up fine last week, so this episode is more like a “bonus”. If you’re into catgirls, then I’m sure you enjoyed this Nakuru-centric episode. I was really taken back by how different Nakuru looked without her glasses, and I’ll be honest, I was charmed by it. I’m interested in seeing second season to the series so we can see how things go from here. With most, if not all, of the main female cast expressing an interest in Kinjirou I’m sure we’ll see more of a harem-style series with Subaru getting jealous a lot more often. Plus I’d like to see how they handle the Kinjirou x Subaru x Kanade triangle.
