Recap of Episode 7 of Senpai Is an Otokonoko

The seventh episode of Senpai Is an Otokonoko started with Makoto accidentally dropping Ryuji’s photo album, which exposed a picture of him sleeping. This triggered a flashback of their childhood, during which Ryuji developed feelings for Makoto. However, due to the teasing and punishment his friends faced for their unconventional choices, Ryuji kept his feelings hidden. As a result, the once-close friends became distant and estranged.

However, upon their reunion in high school, Ryuji was surprised to find that Makoto was still true to themselves despite wearing a girl’s uniform. Seeing Makoto again sparked a desire in Ryuji to reconnect with them, but he was hesitant due to his own conflicting feelings. When it was revealed that Makoto was actually a guy, Ryuji made the decision to pierce his own ears in solidarity with his friend, even if it meant being ostracized. In fact, Ryuji even got into a physical altercation with a classmate who was teasing Makoto. As the present moment resumed, Makoto seemed oblivious to everything that had transpired.

Despite Makoto’s realization, he chose to play it off for Ryuji’s sake. However, the following day, he was unable to focus as he was still troubled by the truth. It was only when Ryuji confessed his love for Makoto that he tried to apologize for his previous actions. This only made Ryuji feel worse, causing him to apologize in return. The next day, Makoto was surprised to find Ryuji skipping school and he took the opportunity to ask him out. As Makoto returned to school, he noticed Aoi leaving after something had happened to her grandmother.

What to Expect from the Eighth Episode of Senpai Is an Otokonoko (Speculation)

It is highly probable that episode 8 of Senpai Is an Otokonoko will begin by highlighting Aoi Saki and uncovering the events that have affected her grandmother. The initial part or majority of the episode will probably revolve around her, leading up to her realization that Makoto is the perfect match for her. As a result, she will gain a newfound sense of confidence and determination upon returning to school. Additionally, this day will mark the first time Makoto and Ryuji attend school as a newly formed couple.

The major conflict of the final episodes of the anime is expected to arise, resulting in the implosion of the love triangle/friend group that the trio has formed throughout the season. Aoi and Ryuji’s relationship, in particular, is likely to be strained as Aoi was the one who encouraged Ryuji to confess his feelings to Makoto.
