Props to the subtitler(s) for making Yano's lines rhyme in English.

*Poor Kakihana.* I feel bad for him, but at the same time he should’ve saw it coming, *that girl was plain obvious…*

[@DIGITALGH05T]

not to mention he was literally in no position for this anyway until he decided to lie (i hope the writers dont force her back into a relationship with him with some "actually i did enjoy being with u" type bs)

@UmU then leave, buddy

[@randomuser3082]

@@mrjackcayman same lol, he’s so stupid on decision making. He’s like that one friend in the group who’s literally the dumbest

[@Stone_Horn]

He lied about his life, and fake wealth to a girl he meet online. Borrowed money from bad people, while hiding in his apartment when they came to collect. Then wasted the said borrowed money for a engagement ring, for said girl he meet online. With intent to still live the lie he tried to feed her. Yeah, he had this coming

0:38 Really subtle Japanese rap: "Nikaido" "二階堂" -> "Nikkai dou?" "二回どう？” Literally, "Wanna do it twice?"

[@johnjordan3552]

nice

[@lavkian]

i made a pogchamp face IRL when i heard that i think the full line is: コンドへいっといてを こにゃおれと二回どう？ literally "how about i take her back and go a couple rounds" amazing

[@Tenderwolf]

@@lavkian 今度、言っといてよ。今夜、俺と二回どう？(kondou ittoitteyo, konya ore to nikkai dou?) Subtitle from CR is accurate, but putting that literally might be overdoing for viewers. LOL

[@BenersantheBread]

I hope someone does a full analysis of his rhyms because I can hear him say rhyming things but I'm stuck with the subtitles for the meaning. And they're *Crunchyroll's* subtitles...

[@Tenderwolf]

@Chilly Was referring about the 'Pun part' of his rap being subtle.

[@vVAstrAVv]

At this point i had noticed that music always builds up for a few seconds before yano talks. But this scene hits the hardest so far. Its not just building up to yanos rap this time. Its something sinister, starting to move. Something the two at the start stop fighting to heed.

[@Menxisan]

This scene was brutal. And I came specifically to check if crunchy was gonna put it here. And they did.

[@DJFlare84]

"How did Kakihana not realize he was getting played?" - The saddest thing is, even he acknowledges that the girl he's dating probably knows he's lying, but he just wants to pretend for a little while. I know that feeling. I have been there. Willing to do anything even remotely feasible to assuage the soul-crushing loneliness, even if it is hanging out with a girl who obvioiusly is only looking for someone to use, as long as you can pretend to feel genuine affection and hope just for a moment...

[@aino-kaisav5504]

I like Yano's character, he got a funny way of rapping everything (I mean dang, this guy really got the beat) but this. He's literally mentally tormenting Kakihana and laughing. Feels bad, man.

[@jinhunterslay1638]

Only Japanese speakers can appreciate this, but....that rap does have some sick rhymes

[@ZETxZ4]

I'm sorry to say this, but I don't understand how this show, which is so much better than Vivy, 86, Fumetsu or any other currently airing and still gets such a low rating, it's criminal man, the drama on this is real, I have a strong feeling that either Odokawa is going to die at the end of the series or something tragic is going to happen, this is when you know the show has a good drama on it, when you feel like anything can happen. It's definitely one of the most unique animes I've even seen in a decade.

[@elbinalejandrofelizgonzale1742]

That is only your opinion, not a fact, that is why you seem to be confused, since you are mixing subjective and objective, this show can't be proven to be better, so why should it get more attention?, There isn't such a thing as an amount of attention shows deserve, for example, fumetsu makes me feel more and stronger feelings, why should I pay more attention to this one that fumetsu?

[@Xela_Redna]

The shows you just compared it to & said it is better than aren't even in the same genre, so you're just trashing other shows to make this one look better which proves nothing, especially that this show is objectively better. I love this show, but I just don't get why anime fans have to tear down other popular shows of the season when their favorite show isn't getting the attention they think it deserves. Just say it's underappreciated & that you wish more people would give it a chance, cause you're just ensuring people skip it by insulting a show they like or setting expectations that might not be met for some.
