Episode 2/Season 2

"You're Inviting Me, Senpai!?" (センパイのお誘いっスか！？) is the second episode of the second season of the Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san anime series and the fourteenth episode overall.

Plot
One afternoon at the art club Nagatoro was eating some sancks and, after she was asked by Senpai how they tasted, sent une of them directly into his mouth with a.

The following day, the President rather abruptly visited the club room and, seeing the boy seemingly having a problem getting in the mood to do a good painting, suggested he was slightly burned out due to the end of the Cultural Festival. She then gave him two tickets to the zoo so he could sketch while in the outdoors; saying she herself used to free herself to nature to refresh her body and soul, which prompted him to imagine her frolicking naked in the woods. The President also ordered him to try and invite the one she called the "cat girl"; since if an outsider like her kept barging into the club, she should at least draw something every now and then. Just as the President exited the room, Nagatoro approached it and managed to eavesdrop; but she only heard the President's last words, which were that she ordered Senpai to "ejaculate" ("shasei"). Suspicious, she peered into the room and, seeing the zoo tickets in Senpai's hands, got excited and immediately searched on her phone for some recommended advice for a zoo date; then, feigning indifference, she entered the room and sat on the sofa. Initially too nervous about the idea of ​​inviting the girl and going to the zoo with her, Senpai remained silent; then, remembering Nagatoro's words at the summer festival, he took courage and asked her if she likes animals, to which she happily answered that she loves them. Senpai then used his "putting that aside" gesture again and asked her if she likes to draw, to which Nagatoro replied she only ever did it in class. Senpai considered saying he could teach her; but he quickly dismissed that idea believing it would sound too pushy. However, right then Nagatoro conveniently admitted she was a terrible artist and would like for him to teach her. Finally, he managed with some difficulty to ask her if she wanted to go to the zoo with him the following Sunday, which, after her usual taunts, the girl accepted, smiling heartily. On Sunday, a dressed up Nagatoro met with Senpai at the zoo, and told him how excited she was since she hadn't been to the zoo since primary school. Then, after the boy gave her a sketchbook, Nagatoro realized that she misunderstood the meaning of "shasei" and that the President had ordered him to actually "sketch" instead of "ejaculate", which got her a little upset (implying that she expected something sexy from the date), and as a result she kicked Senpai in the back of the leg.

Nagatoro's attention was absorbed by Koujirou-kun the red panda and, after he finally stood up, she tried to call Senpai, pouting after noticing he was too absorbed by his sketches to enjoy their "date". The boy immediately apologized guessing she was getting bored and told her they can simply walk around if she preferred it, however Nagatoro replied that she was fine and would play along with it, asking him to "take her hand and teach her everything" in return. Despite some initial embarrassment and the girl teasing him all the time, Senpai accepted and, taking Nagatoro by the hand, show her how to drew the general outline of a subject. The pair spent the afternoon drawing various animals and, although Senpai doesn't notice, the girl actually looked him with a sweet expression every now and then. Later they relaxed at the bar and, confronting their sketches, Nagatoro felt like hers were quite bad, however the boy reassured her that they were actually good for a beginner, yet, noticing Senpai's drawing were almost alive, she asked him what was her secret to which he replied is simply having an intrest or liking what you draw (in order not to said "love"). Thinking about all the time he drew her, Nagatoro smile. Then, while the girl was on the restroom, Senpai was approached by a schoolmate and his girlfriend; they recognize the boy and immediately started to mock him for drawing at the zoo. Senpai endured everything in silence as always until they criticized Nagatoro's drawing, then he lost his temper and yelled them both not to dare make fun of other people's hard work.

Right at that moment Nagatoro came back and scolded her schoolmates for criticizing her drawing and harassing Senpai, making them apologize out of fear and then leaving. Senpai thanked Nagatoro for saving him and she jokingly mocked his weakness thus making him admitting that it was really pathetic of him being bailed out by a kōhai. However it is revealed to the spectators that Nagatoro has actually saw him yell at the two to take her defenses and she was deeply impressed; smiling the girl replied that level was just about right for him. As it was getting late, Senpai proposed Nagatoro to draw her favorite animal as their last one. She chose the cage with the sloth and, as they began drawing she positioned way behind Senpai, then, after they finished the girl revealed that she was actually drawing Senpai, which she called a "five-toed sloth, so slothful and weak that risk extinction and with such a weak presence that can rarely be noticed". Although annoyed that she did all that simply to bully him again, he noticed it was actually very well drawn and realistic, blushing a little while remembering that the secret of drawing is "love". Due to him staring silently into the void, Nagatoro asked Senpai what he was looking at and, as he refused to answer, she started to tease him again.

Trivia

 * This episode is the adaptation of Chapter 49, 50 and 51, as well as Volume 5's back cover story, however there are a few differences:
 * When President first arrives at the art club, in the manga, she is depicted as slamming the door open, which startles Senpai before seeing her. In the anime, she quietly slides the door open, with Senpai being startled after turning to see who opened the door.
 * When President tells Senpai about how she refreshes herself in nature, in the manga, she is shown almost fully nude as she leaps through the air, while in the anime, her breasts and buttocks are obscured by the tree branches.
 * After Senpai looks at Nagatoro's sketch of him as he was sketching the sloth at the zoo, in the manga, he has a flashback to when President was standing in front of him wearing only a sheet to cover herself and asking him what is the most important thing in creating a piece of art, before revealing that the answer is "Love". In the anime, a close up of Senpai's face is shown instead with President's question heard as a voice-over. It then cuts to a close up of President in her uniform, saying "Love".
 * The flashback shown when Senpai remembered Nagatoro's remark on inviting people if he wanted to be with them, was from Episode 7 of the first season.
 * The candy that Nagatoro and Senpai eat, as well as its box, is modelled after the chocolate-strawberry flavored candy, Meiji Apollo, while the tube that she used to launch it into Senpai's mouth is a puffed corn snack stick called.
