It's sad seeing the fallout with Masamune and Aki's relationship. They took one step forward and many steps back...and what's worse is during the holiday season.

Got more flashbacks of Masamune again but this time, it's between him and Neko. It even looks like the season decides to focus a bit on the pair in the present timeline

So it was hives because of stress after all.
We get some Neko action. This won't amount to much, but I hope this leads to more progress with Aki at least.
So yeah, does Masamune actually like Aki? She does seem to genuinely like him, so I sure as hell hope he does.‎

Burnout syndrom is a good theory. Masamune just needs to find a new life purpose other than revenge.

Its indeed difficult to picture Neko short and round considering how pretty she is now. New years is always an interesting time. Mas's mom would fit right in a school if no one told her that she's actually a mom. Its nice that we got to see how Neko and Masamune met back then. The Hanetsuki contest sure was amusing. The heart to heart with Neko was a nice moment. Though it was part of her attempt to help him it was also sad seeing that it was also her real feelings there as well.

This episode was seriously nicely directed, I could feel the characters emotions almost as much as I did in the manga.

"Of course I like her." is what I want to hear from Masamune. He was surprised and didn't know what to answer at that moment. So I hope he'll sort out his feelings soon.

I don't know how i should feel now. There are 3 girls who are in love with Masamune now.
What will he do?
I hope we will find out soon!

But what a great episode, I'm pretty impressed with how this show has gotten more and more compelling with each episode.

I really enjoy fattymune. My friend had a drumstick casually tucked into his pocket, hah. Being prepared for hunger, right?

Hanetsuki isn't Kojuurou's strong suit. He keeps getting hit in the head, poor guy, haha. It's good that Makabe could distract him from the Aki situation.

I'm starting to agree with Neko about Makabe. He does seem stressed now that his main goal is achieved. Perhaps he should reflect on the significance of his past and his feelings for Aki. Neko was quite daring in making her move. Aki better watch out, or she might face competition from Neko for Makabe's attention, haha.

I find it ironic that he gets hives from the two girls who has been pretty straight with him the whole time, while he's most at ease with the one who deceived both him and Aki.

Personally, I wish he'd drop all the drama, and date Futaba instead.

Why is Yoshino still eating the footage? Why is she still here? Why does Masamune still treating her like a normal person?

Also Fujinomiya should just stop in her advances of making her unrequited love true.. please. That guy doesn't deserve you.

Typical anime logic of having the young Masamune being able to stuff a massive chicken leg inside his pocket without us viewers knowing that he had anything inside that pocket at all. XD

Putting that little amusing part aside, his hives isn't anything majorly serious, but it does flair up whenever he's stressed, which he did open up about during his talk with Fujinomiya. She's still in love with him, which she does make clear, although Masamune isn't sure about what to decide next, since her assessment of him having a burnout after his revenge plan was ended.

One thing doesn't help he how long he hasn't talked to Aki since the previous episode and now encountering Yoshino on the streets means a rather awkward discussion between the two again. Hopefully things can be cleared up between the lot of them soon before things get worse.

Why the heck did he lying about Aki having plans so he left her out of the Shrine visit? If I were her and I found out he went with others after making up a lie, I would take that as him not caring enough to want to be her, or wanting to be with other girls instead and it would be the end of the relationship.

So little Neko liked Masamune because he was kind enough to offer her a large chicken drumstick that he voila just pulled out of his jacket pocket!

And she told him she loves him for who he is now, not because of a past memory. Whoa. That was deep.

Masamune still got hives! At last the mystery is solved, it looks like love = stress = hives.

I still can't bring myself to like Yoshino.

New Year and that means a shrine visit but Neko does it differently. Apparently Masamune has stress according to the doctor and that's how he gets hives.

Tae & Shuri see Masamune walk and decide to invite him for the shrine visit but when they also want to invite Aki, he shoves it off or something. Aki still thinking about that notebook that she found. Well looks like Neko & Masamune met each other before he met Aki. They decide to invite Neko as well for the shrine visit. Masamune is then alone with Neko and his hives are gone? strange. Yoshino & Masamune cross paths but they decide to not say anything to each other, while Neko is watching from a distance. Neko did her exam at the hospital or something and Masamune sees her, she invites him to her home and there they talk stuff out. It seems whenever a girl gets too close to Masamune then he gets some kind of stress and his hives are back then, even Neko had shaking hands afterwards.

Masamune yells or something and then hears someone fall and runs towards it and its Yoshino. Interesting.

U should but honestly after this there is not that much there. Mostly drama and complications like this episode, more to be precise. But, for me the manga felt more emotionally understandable. So, yeah definitely check it out but as I said not much is left.

It was interesting to see how Masamune also experiences stress not just with Aki, but also with Fujinomiya. At first he thought there wasn't any stress when he hung out with her for New Year's, but when Fujinomiya began to make a move on him, it started again. It would make sense that after all of that time from a child to his current age, he's made revenge his reason for living, and now that reason is gone, he is unsure how to live (reminds me of Thorfinn from Vinland Saga).

What will Masamune do now? How will he be able to sort through his feelings and decide what he wants to do with his life? Does he take a break from love and dating anybody to instead work on self-discovery?

Also, the scene when young Masamune was eating chicken and pulling drumsticks out of his pockets was funny to see XD It only shows how much of a different person he was back then, and how much he changed himself into the person he is now, so much as to refuse a sports drink for green tea instead.

Good thing they went for the logical route and said the hives was because of stress. Kinda funny how some people were seriously expecting MC to be allergic to Aki.

Oh, I am not a manga reader so I am happy to know that's an "original" scene. Still questioning why the animators decided to go in this direction, is it just to give Neko San some chance to end up with him? The whole thing still seems very unfair to Aki, after everything he's already said/done/had bad intentions and all.

I think it's more like the animators make it toward Yoshino (like that original scene in school were Yoshino and Masamune passed each other and Neko watched it), until the momen Masamune meet Neko in hospital every scene is original, if you asked me why probably to heat up things and make the audience hope Yoshino or Neko have a chance, the manga is like that too but not so far like anime

Yeah me too bro, as Aki fans i really pissed of with that all,but Aki still be best girl who worried about Masamune health despite know all about revenge plan, still sure she will win no matter happens

The Irony: Mamsamuna was upset Aki didn't remember him after all those years (though it was actually she didn't recognize), but he also didn't remember Neko (though it sounds like he saw her once).
