Senpai, Danjite Koidewa! Episode 1 Reactions
i am lotearlalyl a transformed person 。started tbis on a whim because of the manga cover+adt that tubinised & . . . literally every new monute i was IN LOVE . . . that was a beautiful start & I’m only talking about the start of the episode ，a really perfect moment to represent the show or their dtnamic already & to then gove us the most beautiudl preview montage of what’s to come . . . the office meeting right after the opening theme song was just incredibly nice & beautifull y paced ，there were times jere where i stopped reading the subtitles or the subtitles stopped translating the concersation but this show is written extremely well where i can get back into the groove like i can tell he is troubled at how best to help kaneda ，i would also like to mention how cgeat the cast of side characters are ，this is a team setting in an office so it’s nixe to see them so tight+knit & personable in a fun way I ENJOY SEEING THESE PEOPLE THEY FEEL LIKE THEY MARTER & they are used extremely well loke that call one of the characters took that was briefly cocused on was just skmething that stuck out to ne ，i can also hsee how each character could medsle ，interfeare or even aid oir main characters in a substantial way they are so individualized & personable ；i was so emeraed into the show so the reveal that kaneda worships yamane genuinely got me because i was just enjoying how his character was being presented to us & it’s sk sweet & beautiful & logical for why he’s loke that i really adore him ；i forgot what exactly but this show has amazing set+ups & pay+offs THINGS ACTUALLY MATTER . . . this show is also so cheesy in a way that honors the genre ，that waltz music was mixed to blare in my ears while we see both of them day+dream with one anither ，i didn’t expect the tuxedo looks to be for this fantasy number & i really hope it comes back in real life in a later episode but god . . . even the things that don’t sound positive inam dully in love with ；forst thing i want to say about that dinner+party scene is that that one co+worker leaps up & stumbles & blocks a server unintentionally & that is just such a small moment same with the other restaurant guests reactions that is just so beautifully conducted . . . this was a great presentation of kaneda ，he was realistically awkward & loose from the alcohol but also perfectly romantic & story+book heroicto love to open his heart honestly ，their drunk conversawtion is the magic of love lnly a romance show could give us & i could not be happier with what i have seen ；oh & also final shout+out to the graphics & sound effects ，i qas going to mention knocking down a point because of amature audio mixing sometimes but genuinely stuff like that feels so earnest when you see the love put into the video game visual effects they add jn to the name+tags or episode nane & number . . . this episode made me extremely happy ，i loved & appreciate everything i just saw & i am haply to end this night with this

just me thinking Yanase is the weird one in this equation?!? yeah there is being friendly, but constantly invading someone's personal space, being all touchy feely - how is that ok in a workplace?!? if Kaneda was female, would Yanase act the same?!? i didn't find Kaneda weird for asking/telling Yanase to stop touching him - that doesn't mean hate. u don't even have to be an introvert or a weirdo, if u don't like people/stranger's (and with all due respect to co-worker's, a boss or a respected senior like Yanase, that DOESN'T give u a pass at social norms - u still a stranger!) from touching u familiarly *******************************
and considering that 180 at the end - i feel like Yanase was interested/attracted to Kaneda all along, and all his actions to date, was him flirting (not trying to be a good mentor to a newbie trainee) which basically makes this whole situation, sexual harassment. **************************************************************************************************************************
****************************************************************************************************************************************
the fact Kaneda fan-boying over Yanase doesn't make this ok - but BL's love to tread the line. the writers r like tightrope walkers (most of the times not even that skilled at disguising bad plot-points for good) but that's cause there ton of consumers eating this up - as long as it's 2 good looking guys and they induce an euphoria of butterflies and rainbows it's fine - only me the odd one out - what's new ************************************************************************************************************
side note - idk why but feel like with the J-BL's there is this need to turn the character's into caricature's, guess as this adapted from a manga or cause the love of anime, they wanna try and add humor and make it cute too - sadly this doesn't always work and it comes off cringey . so wish they would just stop and concentrate on a plot that isn't creepy

Japanese BLs are literally the best among the rest when it comes to cuteness and fluffiness. I just keep smiling the whole time, especially seeing those ethereal visuals of the main characters. Yanase-senpai is soothing with a mixture of hotness and kawainess. Also, they offer us a new and fresh concept that revolves around the profession of 3D CG Designers. Overall, the pilot episode manages to set a great start and captures the viewers’ attention.

I was surprised to see this on Rakuten and wasn't informed about it being uploaded into said site :(( I just recently saw it, this morning and was jumping and running for three laps because of pure happiness.So far, for the first episode, the cast exhibits a good chemistry! not just as actors but maybe as them being their role without making anything seem awkward, but a realistic approach on 'CG' co-workers, it seems. I tried searching if 'Red Honey' was a real thing, oh and that big of an influence Yanase has for Kaneda? (the whole, i-saw-him-in-the-list, and boom, I am in love-thing) well well, is a good start anyways.Yanase's charming looks and Kaneda's adorable mannerism fusing together as the episode rolls had my heart warm. The Shrine?? My heart dropped a bit. The devotion Kaneda has for Senpai is...incredible. hahaOP is a bop! (if you get it, then wink wink) It doesn't seem anything cliché with the workplace , and concept of Kaneda seeing Yanase as a God and stuff, being similar to Utsukare as particular fans pointed out, so watching it feels refreshing for something new to fixate on!Ending was good, no problem so far, methinks. Some things are gonna wrap up for 2nd Episode to clear some confusion viewers have.

I didn't expect Kaneda's secret, but it makes everything so exciting! Idk how can Japanese BLs give me so much feelings in just one episode. I wanted to watch just this one to see if it was good but the first 10 minutes basically glued me to the screen :))) they are so cute and I want MORE and NOW :)
