That ending scene in the bedroom had really good animation and the music made the whole mood shift so fast

The specific line about not wanting another man to touch her making sense when Sudou got mad at the bar was a great touch and his jealous face made the whole scene

Saki is so oblivious to how much he likes her and it makes the drama with the other guy way more intense

Sudou just claiming her in front of everyone, it made me laugh because he is so obsessed with those condom tests now

Sudou getting all protective over the other guy talking to Saki was kind of sweet even if he is still a total jerk most of the time

The way he looked at her when he said he did not want anyone else near her was pretty intense and it really changed the energy in the office

Saki seems like she is finally catching feelings, and seeing her get flustered by the boss being so direct was a nice change of pace from the usual comedy beats they do

I feel like the drama between them at the office is starting to feel real and Sudou claiming her like that was a huge move for a guy who usually acts so cold

The shift into more romance territory this time worked and seeing Sudou get protective made the whole dynamic feel a lot more personal

That five minute runtime is still a crime because just as things were getting interesting with Sudou being territorial it just ends and cuts off that apartment scene

It was great to see the demon boss actually lose his cool for a second because he was worried about Saki around other guys and it made him more likable

The title really says it all because the way he gets possessive about her is the only thing that happened in those five minutes and it felt so much like a classic josei trope

I think Sudou getting jealous over Saki is actually kind of cute even if the whole show is basically just an excuse for the smut scenes and the episode was way too short to see much else

You can tell the boss is falling for her for real now instead of just helping her with the condom testing and that line at the end was definitely a lot for such a short episode

This episode went by so fast but Sudou acting all possessive, when he said he did not want another man touching Saki, was the highlight for me because it felt like a real shift in their relationship and not just some random office hookup and I just wish the animation was more consistent during the more intimate scenes

Saki really needs to find a better part time job because this condom testing thing is making things so awkward with her boss

my face was red when he told her he did not want anyone else touching her because he is just so blunt about it

Sudou is being such a possessive jerk in this one, and the size joke is getting old even if it is the whole point of the title

he keeps bringing up the testing job just to get what he wants and it is so ridiculous but somehow it fits with the weird condom testing setup

I cannot believe Sudou got that jealous over her talking to a coworker and he just decided to take charge like that

EPISODE CONTEXT

Episode 4 marks the exact midpoint of this eight-episode series, arriving after three episodes that established the physical and emotional foundation of Saki and Keisuke's unconventional relationship. This is typically where short-form romance series pivot — raising the emotional stakes and introducing possessive or conflict-driven tension to carry the back half. What this episode establishes around jealousy and exclusivity is likely to shape the dynamic heading into the final four episodes.
