Hnnnnnnnnnng Kurumi is such a smart person. Her tactics are like top-notch; too bad Sadako is oblivious to what Love is. You gotta love Ryuu's smile though, he can be really good looking when he tries. <3

Kurumi what have you done??! You know you don't want Kazehaya to be hurt, do you?! I really hope he doesn't lose his radiance or his friendship with Ryuu now.
I hope that Kurumi realises what she's doing and stops it. She's not a bad girl, but what she's doing is not good. I understand she's in blind love for him, but her shocked expression when she saw his face gives me the feeling that she might take it a little more easy, at least on him. She desperately wants to be his girlfriend, but she also doesn't want Kazehaya to show her that face again since she cares for him in my opinion.
At any rate, the preview and the title of the next episode is reassuring.

Win to Ryuu's awesomeness. "Kuro...Ah! Burakku!" X'D
His love for Chizuru was pretty obvious, but I'm happy that we got to hear it directly from him. I think he really likes Sawako since he was able to tell her so easily (and he almost remembers her name! XD).

Yano-chin is win as well. No explanations needed.

I also liked Pin in this episode. His immunity against Kurumi was fabulous! (he was like "WTF's with this girl" LOL XD)

I am not surprised that Kazehaya is little jealous to Ryu and Sawako. It was good episode, and the progressing is nice so far. It's too bad that next episode will air on January 6, 2010 due to holiday. I understand completely that Kurumi is in blind love for Kazehaya, and her expression is shocking when she saw Kazehaya's jealously face.

Actually, I like Kurumi's character. Look at it from her point of view:

- All your life your looks and intelligence made most things easy to maintain. Now that isn't working.
- The girl who should be your enemy refuses to be one, refuses to be intimidated and, most confusing, continues to like you. Now you've two situations you've never encountered.
- And you know that lurking in the shadows is someone who not only is just as smart as you but has the muscle at her disposal to back up any plans she puts in motion.

One of the reasons I really like this series is that Kurumi is simply Sawako's rival and not some cardboard cut-out villain. She not a evil person, really, and I'm betting will come out of this the better for it.

In fact, Sawako is very much like a cardboard cut-out in that she's completely unrealistic and two-dimensional. So far, Kurumi's actually the most developed character.

Who would have thought that Ume-chan would've brought 2 people closer together this episode? I'm really looking forward to the next one, eventhough much of this was fanservice for me since I got to see so much Yano.

I third this. As someone said earlier, the support cast carries this show. There's no way in hell either a person like Sawako or Kazehaya could exist in this world, much less in the same class:D. Well anime is not about realism but still, i prefer the more "alive" characters. Grey always >>>>>pure black/white.

And next ep Kurumi will probably break down crying, seeing Kazehaya's reaction to his plot. She doesn't want to hurt him (or even Sawako)...

I just love Ryuu. Want to see more ChizuXRyuu though Ryuu saing " I only love Chizu" is enough to satisfy me now..:P

So what will Kazehaya do next???? - dying to know.

Its funny how Kurumis evil acts works oppositely on Sawako . XD

I agree that Kurumi and Ryuu are more developed than Sawako . . . but I think Sawako is a force that pushes these characters to their limit. If she wasn't there would any of these characters have expressed them selves to their fullest potential? Just a thought ^_^ I think she's two dimensional for a purpose that works for the story. I don't think her character is unrealistic, I think her character is misunderstood, people really can be that naive and quite. . . Also I do like Kurumi's character though, she is doing things blinded by her emotions not because of hate.

I'm not ashamed to say I almost cried at the end of this ep just looking at Kazehaya's pained expression . . . just from seeing the preview from next week I can't waaaaiiiitttt to see what happens! Oh how I wish it would come sooner

I think you are misunderstand something. Just because they like Kurumi that doesn't mean they are against SawakoXKazehaya nor they are supporting KurumiXKazehaya. If you really understand her character you will see that she has been lost from the very beginning even before Sawako came into the play. But she didn't accept the defeated, instead she encouraged herself and accepted the challenge and fighting by herself in her own way without having someone to push her back. Thats right her method is wrong in many ways but didn't she deserved what she has done?

This episode made me respect Ryuu that much more. He's such a great guy. I seriously yelled "Fuck yeah!" when he admitted he loved Chizuru :D

I almost started feeling bad for Kurumi when she approached Kazehaya when he was carrying the cones. I felt bad that she wasn't under the same light that Sawako was for him. That is of course until she started lying to him about Sawako and Ryuu. At which point I wished Kazehaya or anyone punched her in the face ;l

Wow, what a fucking slut. Go fucking die in a hole, you slut Kurumi you.

You will never know the true feelings of a person unless you asked them directly man. GO KAZEHAYA, FREAKING CONFESS YOUR FEELINGS AND ASK SAWAKO DIRECTLY.

That's just a misunderstading. Don't let it fool you although Sawako will probably tell him the truth since she's like an innocent little girl who's like clueless everytime. <3

I think Sawako is lack of "love"(well everyone knows it) since she has very little friend when she is young(or maybe none) and the chance to discuss about relationship are rare ....Ume is going to teach her to "Jealous" i guess.
Ume doesn't have conscience of what she is doing right now...but i think Ume is trying to make Sawako jealous in the end.From my opinion, If wouldn't be Ume around ,Sawako would notice that she is in LOVE.
The statement above can be applied to Kazehaya also ^^
I think Ume is trying to make thing worse from what she trying to prevent from it ~~LOVE IS LIKE HURRICANE
Yano seems to be the spectator of this all relationship.I think she is just letting Ume to spark up Sawako's life .ohhh...Her evil smile prove it all ^^

I feel like this anime has some same element of Konichiwa Anne~~~

Nice one! Glad you liked it. Rare and more rare to see you happy with anime series. Personally to add, I was also surprised Kurumi would do that to Kazehaya but people said it before, she realized Sawako is not that foolish after all.

I lol'ed so hard for her face at the end of this episode. It seems like the plan really backfire.. HARD....

ROFL!!!

Kurumi truly does seem extremely talented in scheming, but it looks like all she has done is force Kazehaya into confessing his feelings. I can't wait until the next episode. As for the cat fight scenario, I don't think it will be necessary when Kazehaya lays a fat kiss on Sawako.

I'm beginning to love this anime. At first I still have doubts since I haven't read the manga. Even though I still haven't read it I still think the anime surpassed the manga BIG time. I mean it's the best art I have ever seen. It's so unique! If the manga is still better. That manga should be put on history.LMAO!

As I was saying it's brilliant. I'm starting to like Sawako. And I'm loving Kazehaya. He's so refreshing. And by the way I also love Ryuu! I think he's too hot for his own good.And Chizu is just so lucky. LOL.
