Episode 7 shows her deep in denial about her new crush, and the review notes that most of her screentime is spent forcing herself to acknowledge it. The setup works because Azuma has no close guy friends to compare against, and every past relationship started with the other person making the first move. Being the one to notice first is new to her, and it lets the show lean into her overly self-serious side for comedy.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rest of the episode gives the two official couples room to breathe. Yamada and Nishi get a date at an aquarium, where Yamada practices using Nishi\u0026#39;s first name while she worries about whether he is having fun. Tani and Miyu face a more grounded concern: as third-years, college entrance exams may cut into their time together, and Tani, who is not outwardly emotional, ends up dwelling on it more than Miyu does.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"Episode 7 of You and I Are Polar Opposites season 2 has Azuma in denial about her feelings for Taira, which the review calls some of her funniest material yet.
