Summary:
"You don't get married because you are already in love, you don't get married so that you can prove it", and so they did exactly that, modestly but sweetly and boldly, they care and complement each other perfectly, and have fundamentally set an example of an ideal husband and wife material. Despite being a slightly unrealistic story and having minor issue with the storytelling , Tonikawa had not failed to make me smile in every eposide. Would be looking forward for more contents, especially Tsukasa's past, and more lovey-dovey moments for upcoming seasons.
What I like: dream pairing, pure wholesomeness
What I dislike: minor storytelling issue

- Nasa and Tsukasa are who I would personally view as an ideal model of husband and wife respectively: A modest female who is thoughtful and compassionate, and has great arsenal of cooking skills and entertainment knowledge, Tsukasa would fit into the image of an ideal female partner; a reliable male who can support a family with hardwork, real-time innovation and skills, and long-term life planning, Nasa would fit into the image of a male partner.
- On top of that, their romance progressions have practically zero nonsense, i.e. no cockblocking moments, no "I'm too scared to do anything, so I won't be doing anything" moments, so no frustration while watching the series.
- Kanade is super quirky, and I like almost every scene with her in it, due the dynamics
- A small storytelling direction that I slightly dislike however, is that multiple times the story would spoonfeed the audience a certain traits that is explained through a specific action at a spefific timing, sometimes it also came as quite repetitive. For example: when Nasa pointed out how soft Tsukasa's body was on multiple occasions, or when we were basically spoonfed by the inner thoughts of the characters, describing a certain person's trait.
- Additionally, it slightly frustrates me that Nasa did not further question the origin of Tsukasa,
especially when the events involving her ex-residence and Chitose was supposed to raise a flag. There were also other moments when Tsukasa's speeches were out of place, but considering an air-head Nasa is, I could understand that.
- Possibly the weakest part of the story is Chitose, probably the least likable character in the series so far. Despite coming to a conclusion with Nasa mid-season, she seems to continue to doubt Nasa's credibility
as Tsukasa's husband, which confuses me of her motives and stance
- While generally I am not a fan at how Chitose and Aya was treated for comedy purposes at the end, I like the musical direction involving the takoyaki episode, the chaotic tone reminds me of Saiki Kusou.
- Best characters: Tsukasa or Kanade
- Worst characters: Chitose
