“Please Put Them On, Takamine-san!” Episode 2: A Wild Ride of Absurdity and Ecchi Shenanigans

If you’re looking for a show that balances absurdity, ecchi, and a touch of time-looping madness, Please Put Them On, Takamine-san! might just be your guilty pleasure. Episode 2, titled “Shirota’s First Test as Takamine’s Closet,” dives deeper into the bizarre dynamic between the seemingly perfect Takamine and the hapless Shirota. And boy, does it deliver—whether you’re here for the laughs, the fanservice, or just pure chaos.

The Plot Thickens (Or Doesn’t?)

Takamine, the school’s untouchable goddess, has a secret: her time-rewinding powers are tied to her underwear. Yes, you read that right. In this episode, Shirota—now reluctantly serving as her “closet”—faces his first real challenge: putting her panties back on after she “accidentally” drops them. The catch? She’s sitting down, and the whole thing is framed as a test of his loyalty (and sanity).

Fans have pointed out how ridiculous the premise is, with one Reddit user joking, “How was he supposed to get them on her if she was sitting down?” It’s a fair question, but logic takes a backseat here. The episode leans hard into its ecchi roots, with Takamine’s playful (and borderline manipulative) antics driving the plot forward.

Fan Reactions: Love It or Hate It?

The discourse around this episode is as wild as the show itself. Some viewers are fully on board with the absurdity. One MyAnimeList user gushed, “WHY IS THIS GOOD??? WHERE’S THE SHINING LIGHT TO COVER THE PINK RANGER??? WHY IS THE VA QUALITY GOOD??? WHY AM I ENJOYING IT INSTEAD OF GETTING A BONER??? WHY IS THIS SO FREAKIN GOOOOOOOD???!!!” Clearly, the show’s over-the-top humor and self-awareness are winning points with certain audiences.

On the flip side, others aren’t as impressed. A critic lamented, “This seems unhinged and insane, so I will be watching.” Another called it “awful” and compared it to Rent-a-Girlfriend in terms of frustrating character dynamics. Takamine’s tendency to manipulate Shirota—especially after framing him in Episode 1—has left a sour taste for some. One commenter summed it up: “Takamine is going to abuse her power like crazy… At least she was less of a bitch this time around.”

The Ecchi Factor

Let’s address the elephant in the room: this show is very ecchi. Crunchyroll’s uncensored version has been a hot topic, with fans celebrating the lack of light beams or strategic camera angles. As one degenerate (their words, not mine) put it: “CR got the uncensored version. Huzzah. Anyways, I’ve been reading the manga, and it is exactly what you’d expect. Just some perverted ecchi stuff.”

But is there more to it than just fanservice? Surprisingly, yes. The show’s humor and Takamine’s unhinged personality have drawn comparisons to Shimoneta, another series that blended ecchi with absurd comedy. The dynamic between Takamine and Shirota—where she’s the chaotic force and he’s the bewildered straight man—works surprisingly well for laughs.

Final Verdict: Embrace the Madness

Please Put Them On, Takamine-san! isn’t trying to be high art, and that’s okay. Episode 2 doubles down on the ridiculous premise, delivering a mix of ecchi, comedy, and just enough plot to keep things moving. If you’re here for a wild, no-holds-barred ride, you’ll probably enjoy it. If you’re looking for deep storytelling or likable characters, well… maybe try something else.

As one fan perfectly put it: “This seems unhinged and insane, so I will be watching.” And honestly? Same.

Rating: 3.5/5 (for pure entertainment value)
Would I watch Episode 3? Absolutely. Do I regret it? Maybe. But that’s part of the fun.

“Haite Kudasai, Takamine-san” Episode 2: A Rollercoaster of Awkwardness and Absurdity

If you thought the first episode of Haite Kudasai, Takamine-san was wild, buckle up because Episode 2 cranks the absurdity up to eleven. Takamine-san, the seemingly perfect high school goddess with her “Eternal Virgin Road” ability, continues to torment poor Shirota Koushi in ways that defy logic, physics, and basic human decency. And honestly? Fans are eating it up—though not without some mixed feelings.

The Plot (Or Lack Thereof)

This episode picks up right where the first left off: Shirota is still stuck in his bizarre role as Takamine’s personal underwear assistant. This time, the task escalates from awkward to downright impossible—putting on her panties in the middle of class. Yes, you read that right. While the rest of the class remains blissfully unaware (or just plain blind), Shirota struggles through the most nerve-wracking mission of his life.

Fans on MyAnimeList and other forums had a field day dissecting this scene. One user hilariously pointed out, “Not even Mission Impossible’s Ethan Hunt could pull this off, but Shirota somehow manages.” Another joked, “This is just foreplay in the middle of class.” The sheer ridiculousness of the scenario is what makes it so entertaining, even if it makes zero sense.

Takamine’s Ruthless Charm

Takamine-san is the star of the show, and Episode 2 solidifies her as a chaotic force of nature. She’s manipulative, teasing, and downright cruel to Shirota—yet fans can’t help but be drawn to her. One commenter summed it up perfectly: “Takamine is a menace, but she does it in such a seductive way—damn, she just oozes sensuality.”

Her “Eternal Virgin Road” ability, which lets her redo past actions, is used here for something as trivial as making Shirota re-attempt her underwear mission. Some fans found this repetitive (“Why waste a time-travel ability on panties?”), while others loved the absurdity (“She’s using her skill for tiny things like that. What a menace.”).

Shirota: The Ultimate Victim (Or Lucky Bastard?)

Shirota’s suffering is the backbone of the comedy. Whether he’s being blackmailed, humiliated, or accidentally brushing against Takamine’s “promise land” (as one fan dramatically put it), his reactions are pure gold. The fandom is split on whether to pity him or envy him. “Shirota is a victim, but TBH, I love Takamine-san’s personality. Since this is an ecchi anime, I don’t feel bad for him,” one user wrote.

The classroom scene, where Shirota kneels to adjust Takamine’s underwear, had fans howling. “19:10—OH BOY, she liked that,” someone timestamped, referencing the moment Takamine visibly enjoyed the contact. It’s moments like these that make the show so shamelessly entertaining.

The Elephant in the Room: The Butterfly Scene

One major gripe among fans is the “Virgin Road” animation—a 45-second sequence of a butterfly fluttering through a door. Many found it unnecessarily long and repetitive. “Let’s hope they cut this scene shorter in future episodes,” pleaded one viewer. Another added, “Watching a butterfly cross a door for almost 50 seconds can get annoying.”

Final Verdict: Peak Degeneracy or Hidden Gem?

The reactions to Episode 2 are polarizing. Some called it “true peak degenerate anime,” while others felt it was already getting stale. “This anime is trash, and so are we,” one fan admitted with zero shame.

But here’s the thing: Haite Kudasai, Takamine-san isn’t trying to be deep. It’s unapologetically absurd, packed with fan service, and designed for laughs. As one fan wisely put it, “Don’t try to put so much sense into this anime because its purpose doesn’t allow it!”

If you’re here for logic, you’re in the wrong place. But if you want a ridiculous, over-the-top ecchi comedy with a sadistic heroine and a perpetually flustered MC, Episode 2 delivers in spades. Just don’t watch it with your family—unless you’re prepared for some very awkward questions.

Rating: 7/10 (for sheer audacity alone)

P.S. The ED is a banger, and no one can argue with that.
