I'm rooting more and more for Taichi, it feels like he kind of deserves it more, while Chihaya seems to drift throught his fingers in Aratas direction. D: It hurts so much to watch the poor guy. T_T

I initially voted Arata back during like episode 8 or something, but after seeing the rest of the season, I really, really like Chihaya x Tachi. But it looks like Chihaya x Arata will win out. Just look at the way Chihaya reacts every time she sees Arata in the later episodes. She's always entranced every time he appears.

I don't think Chihaya is now in love with Arata or Taichi,
we know Taichi is in love with Chihaya ("Hopeless... Hopelessly in love.")
"Chihaya reacts every time she sees Arata in the later episodes"
oh course she will be happy!
He is her friend, she don't meet him every day like rest friends...
so of course she will be happy if she get a chance to see him
and she will pick to talk with Arata instead of Taichi
(he goes to the same school and club as she)
she can talk with him every day, in contrast to Arata.

You know, this isn't a fair fight. Taichi has been with Chihaya the whole series and Arata's been in what.. 5 episodes, not even. Of course people are going to vote for Taichi, and he's had many opportunities to get close to her. Yet, the way Chihaya lights up when she sees Arata play karuta or hears his voice is such a magical moment, it makes my heart melt. <3

The fact is, if it wasn't for Arata, Chihaya wouldn't have found her dream. Even Taichi wouldn't have started playing karuta and probably wouldn't have seen Chihaya ever again after they grew up. Taichi is very sweet and loves Chihaya a lot but Chihaya seems to fit MUCH better with Arata.

Chihaya is going nuts about Arata, he's the reason why Chihaya has a dream.
But still Taichi all the way.

Taichi x100. Sure he was immature as a kid, but that's due to the fact he didn't know how to express his feelings. Go Taichi! You're so good looking, smart and considerate!!

I've seen enough drama/romance anime to know where this is going. It's sooooo obvious that Chihaya will end up with Taichi. I'd vote Arata though, I love how he develop their relationship progress since they're young, and I love long distant relationship too.

Taichi!!!! i just love his character development!!! and i hope he will win Chihaya's heart in the end!!! He's had a crush on her since the beginning that's why he was such a jerk with Arata...........little pest, lol. But he has been growing up so wonderfully, the manga is coming to a climax, so we will see.............

Taichi's voice is to die for... Miyano Mamoru's best performance. Beats all his other main characters by miles. So therefore Taichi all the way!

Hmmm...I'm only 15 eps in and to be honest I really like Chihaya x Arata but up until this point I'm at I've not really seen anything from Arata that suggests anything but a platonic relationship on his end. Chihaya is constantly seeing him in the clouds and stuff but he doesn't really seem to think about her the same way. He thinks about Karuta.

I may end up eating these words through the next 10 eps though, we'll see.

Also:

Friendzone Level = Taichi


EDIT: So after all 25 episodes I didn't feel that Arata really cared for Chihaya. He likes her and thinks she's pretty, but he's incapable of really doing anything about it so he doesn't. Maybe it would be a different story if he was in the same city she was. I feel like maybe he'd make a move then but aside from that he doesn't even call her. Chihaya is oblivious to Taichi and doesn't see him romantically. She may someday, but currently, it's platonic.

I don't really see any pairing here. I prefer Arata x Chihaya but it doesn't exist. Neither does Taichi x Chihaya. Something that shined in this anime was the boys relationship with each other. They both seem to understand how the other feels and respect that. That must be a Japanese thing because it sure as hell doesn't happen in America very often. :P

Bottom Line: If Arata ever moves to the same city as Chihaya it's over. If he never does then maybe she'll eventually notice Taichi. The End. XP

would go to Taichi as well!!

it's funny because i hated Taichi back in the childhood flashbacks since he pushed Chihaya like that.

but as the episodes keep going, i began to appreciate him more and more.

poor him though, the series will definitely pander towards Arata and Chihaya even though they haven't had any intimate interactions in the first season so far.

probably by season 2 T__T

either way Taichi all the way!!

you've made me a believer :)

In my perfect ending (which, alas, doesn't seem very likely at this point, but a girl can still dream), the couples would go something like:

Taichi x Chihaya,
Arata x Shinobu,
Desktomu x Kana,
Akihiro x Sumire

And I want poor Yusei to end up with someone too, but there's no one left...at first I thought, "Yumin!" Then I remembered she's 24 and he's still in high school. :s

but i still want Taichi with her.
But in most anime, it never ends to be the closest childhood friend that usually has the most affection.

And here is a thing i managed to find...

"this is a josei manga which the romance aspect is less, but if you consider the hint in the story
chihaya x arata is the most probable outcome.

There are 3 important hint that chihaya harbor a feeling towards Arata this factual and undeniable.


This is a Fact :

Chihaya and Arata Love is somehow similar to Orihime x hikoboshi situation (long distant Love)- Poem #17
As long chihaya x arata represent orohime and hikoboshi, taichi love is just a wishful thinking.

Another Fact Whose better in Karuta?:
Suoh- Talent
Taichi - Hard Work
Arata- Hard Work + Talent

They forgetting chihaya is the main character here, chihaya heart is rooting for Arata
that's undeniable fact. a fine girl like chihaya deserve a humble downtown boy like Arata."

Arata for sure. He's been my favorite from when he was a bright eyes kid, an angsty tween and now as a ass kicking teenage. <3

I could'nt honestly care less pver who Chihaya ends up with though.

This^ even though It's pretty obvious that chihaya likes arata but still I want chihaya to end up with taichi and arata with shinobu. I haven't seen the second season yet so there is still hope.

You know, now that the manga teased us about the Suou/Chihaya ship, I think they match better than Chihaya and the others. Chihaya/Suou FTW

i'd go with Taichi.. though i actually hated him in the first episodes of season 1 but i see him as more passionate when it comes to chihaya .. arata was only concerned about playing karuta so ill go with TaichxChihaya and ArataxShinobu.. :)

Taichii was a little douche when he was a kid, but he's a lot better now.

I'm kinda surprised at the poll results... expected Arata to be favored.

I voted for Taichii, because he's the one that's actually putting forth effort for her affection, while Arata is busy trying to be a secluded emo.

No! Actually, I just really love Arata.
Demo, from the looks of it, he doesnt feel anything for Chihaya, i mean in a romantic way.
I love Taichi too, but he's just toooo caring. I mean, always the good guy and all.

But Chihaya is looking for Arata (obviously), so ill go with Chihaya x Arata. :)
