There's No Freaking Way I'll be Your Lover! Unless... episode 3 brief recap

Mai kisses Renako (Image via Studio Mother)

Titled You Can't Freaking Force Me, the episode began with Renako replaying her and Mai's kiss repeatedly in her head. That boundary had been crossed, and she was confused as to what to do next. Simultaneously, she was a bit melancholic at Mai going to France briefly for work, but the blonde didn't leave without a goodbye.

She called the pink-haired girl to the rooftop and expressed how much she would miss Renako, giving her another kiss before truly setting off. The next day was visibly gloomy in the classroom, given Mai's absence. But Renako aimed to stand firm and somehow mustered up the courage to ask Ajisai to hang out.

The girls visited the mall and soon ran into two boys from their class. Upon their requesting Ajisai and Renako to grab drinks, the latter passed out (as she had never done it before). The boys gave her space, and Ajisai was there with her all along. By the end, Renako invited Ajisai to her place based on a love for gaming.

That night, Renako spoke to Mai, and the latter wasn't too thrilled to hear that Ajisai would be coming over, but played it cool. Time passed, and Ajisai was over the next day as the pair played video games. But another guest arrived at the Amaori household— Mai Ouzuka, who wrapped up work early to "surprise" Renako.

Renako then felt an odd tension as she had both Mai and Ajisai in her room. To cut through it, she pulled her sister in to join them as the four played games for a while. Soon, it was time for Ajisai to leave, and Haruna (sister) jumped at the opportunity to walk Ajisai to the station, leaving Renako and Mai alone.

In a flash, Mai hugged the pink-haired girl, expressing how much she had missed her and her jealousy. The blonde wanted to close the gap further between them and go all the way, with Renako barely putting up a fight. But just as things could get more intimate, Haruna walked in on them and left almost as immediately.

The episode ended with Renako slapping Mai, given what had just happened, and asking her to leave. She was angry at herself for allowing things to go that far.

What to expect from There's No Freaking Way I'll be Your Lover! Unless... episode 4 (speculative)

There are no official previews for There's No Freaking Way I'll be Your Lover! Unless... episode 4. However, given what happened in the previous installment, Renako and Mai's dynamic may have suffered some damage due to Haruna walking in on them. It looked to be a step too far, especially considering the circumstances.

Mai left very red-faced while Mai's feelings about relationships were reiterated. But on the other hand, it is unlikely that this incident will end things between the pair. Rather, There's No Freaking Way I'll be Your Lover! Unless... episode 4 may see Mai seek to make amends and take things slower while Renako gets an opportunity to prove her side of the bargain.
