English Dub Review: You and I Are Polar Opposites “Episode 6”

Overview:

The school festival is in full-swing and when someone from Suzuki’s middle school days comes to visit, Tani learns he might not technically be her first boyfriend.

Our Take:

This arc isn’t done yet, so I could end up eating my words, but this show handled what could have been a big problem really well. Suzuki says that Tani is her first “real” boyfriend, and I think that’s true, but apparently, a friend of hers, Rihito, and she went out for like a day in middle school. It was one of those relationships that doesn’t really count because you’re so young, in my opinion. But I can understand why Tani gets jealous. I was fascinated by the fact that Suzuki used to have black hair. For some reason, I thought her pink hair was because of anime rules, but it turns out she dyes it.

I love how this show has been handling things. A situation like this would lead to a multi-episode misunderstanding in most other shows, but Suzuki and Tani clear things up right away. It also seems like at least one side couple is going to become a thing sometime soon, and I’m so glad this show is still my sweet and wholesome recharge of the week.
