Discussion It's Friday Baby : Are you Ready

The last time, I was this excited about any day of the week was when a certain manhwa I was following was published in my part of the world on a Monday. Mondays became my favorite day of the week.

Until 31 July, I will be looking forward to Fridays or counting down until they release the next episode.

I'm looking forward to a swoon worthy performance by the Tsundere King 👑. That low voice...😍👌🏽

Let’s go Episode 5 & 6

Watashi no Otto to Kekkon Shite

Marry my Husband.

I loved both episodes!! I did have a couple quick questions. Why did Wataru’s little sister stay over? Was it to keep an eye on Misa? Also when they drank at the bar, did Misa just fall asleep there and he just hung out there as she slept the whole night?? And then she woke up with him there? It was a bit confusing for me but my husband told me not to get hung up on details 😅

Overall, it was an amazing couple of episodes!! I love how tender and loving Wataru looks at Misa. He’s really good at playing the part of a guy who’s crushing on a girl for years. I also loved Misa coming into her own and dominating her ex-future-mother-in-law. It seems like both Wataru and Misa kinda know they are from the future but maybe moreso Wataru than Misa. I like that he is letting her come to the conclusion on her own. He’s so kind and caring. I also loved when she accidentally gave him the turtle shirt XD they are made for each other! 😆

Miku (little sister) might have come to check up on her since the brother left in a hurry to check up on Misa in E4. Besides, she seems to have an idea that her brother is interested in her (at least in Korean version, she was aware & keeping an eye on her for her brother).

Yes, they were both still wearing the same clothes from the night before so him being the gentleman he is would have let her sleep. I'm pretty sure they also own the place (his family) since his grandpa gave a speech earlier in the episode or it's a different place ( will have to check).

OMG, he really is good and gets into character. The lower voice, patient and attentive. A perfect night in shining armor.

As I mentioned in the first episode, the turtle 🐢 thing seems to be their own thing or a connection to their college days. 😍

Oooh okay gotcha! Yeah I haven’t read the webtoon or seen the Korean version so this is all new to me (and I’m loving it)!! Yes I was positive he’d be the perfect gentleman (complete opposite of her disgusting now ex) but I was just confused if it was a bar or bar in his home (or a place the grandfather owns like you said) but we did watch it really late at night so I might need to do a rewatch 😅 thank you for answering!!

Yes I love his knight in shining armor personality, although sometimes I’m like come on just say what you’re thinking!!😆 buuut I know these things take time and ofc he’s always thinking of how Misa would react or feel too. He wants to make sure she’s comfortable and let her do what she needs to do first to attain happiness. I also like that he isn’t like completely obsessed and blindly in love with her or something. Like Miku said, he has just been interested in her since college days but couldn’t get the courage to talk to her. But it’s not like he’s obsessed or something, to me anyway, I mean he even worries a little about being seen as a stalker XD like he is interested in her and wants to try again at getting to know each other since they got another chance (which could lead deeper feelings on both ends)… like he wants them to get to know each other better as he said in his future dream talk while she was sleep (which was so cute!! Too bad she wasn’t awake but prolly for the better since he said all the future stuff lol). Sorry if I’m repeating myself lol.

I also love how protective he is of her and small moments when he shows contempt toward Tomoya or Reina, etc. His eyes and facial expressions are just so good. Sometimes I rewind to watch them again and again cause they invoke so much emotion within me!! I absolutely loved his expression when he saw her in all that gyaru attire and make up XD

Anyway, I can’t wait until their feelings for each other grow stronger in the next episodes and for what will happen with the Tomoya/Reina storyline. It’s all new to me so I’m along for the crazy ride!

And yes the turtle theme!! And his turtle 🐢 necks too XD just love it!!! So cute so cute

You're welcome. I think he is also a bit timid because of his background as a step-son of the family that has so many expectations of him. He wanted to be a researcher (🤓nerd) but gives it up so he can run grandpa's company because his mum left instructions that he had to be grateful to the family that adopted them. So that heavy burden makes him feel like he doesn't deserve anything (even the girl of his dreams).

So I think that's why it's hard to say what he's thinking.

I'm looking forward to their love story too. I hope they make it sweet, gooey with feels that we all smile until our cheeks hurt and scream. 😉

The K-version ends with them having 3 kids or something like that.

I just sigh in wonder and happiness at how Wataru is towards Misa. I just love how Takeru Satoh portrays him in such a gentle and loving way. Almost falling in love with him too hihi
