Senpai Is an Otokonoko Episode 4 recap

Senpai Is an Otokonoko Episode 4 began with Ryuji starting to realize his feelings for Makoto. Makoto and Saki then returned to the Founding Party, with focus then jumping to the next day. Makoto had returned to school dressed as a girl, with the girl he went to the dance with not being upset at all by what he did and even saying she likes him dressed as a girl. Ryuji then found himself instinctually making a move on Makoto while thinking of how jealous he is of Saki.

The next day, Ryuji and Saki discussed how Makoto is getting more popular with his classmates. Makoto then met with Ryuji and Saki over a school break, where Ryuji further fell for Makoto. However, they had to get away from the aquarium they were at because people from Makoto’s neighborhood were there. This led Ryuji to grab Makoto by the hand, embarrassing him due to his feelings for Makoto.

At the end of the day, Makoto revealed he got each of them a gift from the aquarium for always being there for him. On the crowded train home, Saki and Makoto had a romantic moment which clearly intrigued Ryuji. The trio then decided to meet at Ryuji’s house the next weekend since his parents would be away. He informed his sister of this since she’d be there before getting extremely excited at the notion of Makoto sleeping over at his house.

After spending the day with the group, Ryuji’s sister made it clear that she was aware of Ryuji’s feelings for Makoto. The trio then spent the night with each other, with Makoto clearly relying on Ryuji to comfort him through his fear of ghosts. Ryuji then seemingly realized the truth regarding Saki’s crush on Makoto. The episode ended with a look at Saki’s family life with her grandmother, questioning her feelings for Makoto as she fell asleep.


What to expect from Senpai Is an Otokonoko Episode 5 (speculative)

With Senpai Is an Otokonoko Episode 5 will be titled Special. As indicated by the preview images and preview synopsis, the next episode will see Saki and Ryuji watch the baseball match in which Makoto was involved as a player. During the game, Ryuji questions Saki about her love for Makoto.

As expected, Saki finds the question strange and asks for more clarification. Ryuji answers her honestly about what he has been seeing lately and this makes Saji cry. The reason behind this might be because Saki feels like she is burdening Makoto with his girl persona.
