A Quick Look at Episode 5 Before Next Week
Episode 5 brought major attention to the series. The episode showed a scene where Hirose exchanges contact information with his teacher Sล Otogiri. This moment comes from the original manga but with changes.
Syundei, the manga creator, requested the animation team to change certain scenes before the anime aired. The creator wanted the relationship between Hirose and Otogiri to clearly stay as a student-teacher dynamic.
“This is intended solely as a stylistic expression of BL & carries no deeper meaning. Neither I, the creator, nor the animation production team endorses teachers and students exchanging personal contact information.” – Syundei, manga creator
Author Leaves Social Media After Online Harassment
The attention around Episode 5 connects to a bigger story about the manga creator. Syundei deleted their X (formerly Twitter) account on April 11, 2026. The decision came after receiving complaints and harassment online.
Some readers objected to certain themes in the manga, including teacher-student dynamics. The creator addressed these concerns in a public statement before leaving the platform.
Syundei wrote about their decision: “I just get complaints about why the hell I’d draw something like this, and I don’t have the ability to create something that makes everyone as happy as they’re expected, so there’s no point in being a manga creator anymore, is there?”
The creator also announced a change for future work. Syundei stated they will no longer write stories featuring adult-minor relationships or large age gaps. This includes teacher-student pairings in their Boys’ Love works moving forward.

What to Expect From Episode 6
Episode 6 will likely continue Nakamura’s awkward attempts to get closer to Hirose. The previous episodes focused on Nakamura’s inner thoughts and how jealousy makes him act in funny ways. He often misunderstands situations involving Hirose and other people.
The comedy comes from Nakamura being too shy to say what he feels. Many viewers find this relatable. The show balances humor with genuine emotional moments about first love and self-doubt.
The episode will air on Crunchyroll at the scheduled time on April 29. Fans should check their local time zone to avoid missing the release.
