Shout out to the surprisingly not-terrible GAMERS!
When i read the Kaguya-sama manga, the supporting cast is my favorite part of it. It always make me laugh when the story shows how each characters react to the situation base on their personality, Fujiwaka is an airhead daughter of a politician, Ishigami is a loyal friend but also a extremely cynical and glommy, Hayasaka ( Kaguya’s maid)who is deadpan and really tired of the main characters shit, and Iino( wonder if the anime will reach her introduction arc) who too naive for her own good.
It would be kind of boring if it was just the main two going back and forth, so I’m happy they found a good way to break things up. Fujiwara has had most of the screen time so far so I’m looking forward to seeing more of the other cast members.
I still maintain the best shirts came from Run with the Wind.

I rewatched Neverland ep1 the other day while showing it to my brother, and I will say that there are some interesting comments from Ray that I didn’t pay much attention to at the time.
Too bad it’s a best *anime* shirt contest, because Grigio from the manga Torimania has one of my favorite shirt designs: https://i.imgur.com/gWrE19O.jpg
(He also has sweater and a hoodie with the exact same design.)
Anyway, I’m glad that you’re enjoying My Roommate is a Cat – it’s been doing a better job at handling the main character in recent episodes, although I’m still a bit baffled about the writer shoehorning the childhood friend character into storylines where he’s not supposed to be. I suppose they’re trying to capitalize on the pretty boy factor, but they’re still undermining their own premise by having a character that Subaru is actually friends with and is regularly interacting with. (In the manga he’s not a regular – he first appears in the story that the anime is most likely keeping for the series finale, and basically he just shows up out of the blue after not being around for quite a while, and comments on how much Subaru has changed since they last saw each other.)
I find your predictions entertaining, though – it’s kind of like you keep expecting the story of being a different genre than what it is. 😀
So… does he just have a bunch of shirts that say “BEANS”? That’s pretty good.
