Duuude... just confess to her.


haha lol I agreeeeee~ When he said to Ryuu "Im losing my patience" I was like FINALLY he grew a pair!!! And then in the class room awkwardness/ saying that there previous conversation meant nothing!!! I was like Kazehaya you DUMMY/BAKA!!!

S2 has just started, the manga is still ongoing, yet you expect Kazehaya to confess already?
You guys seem to forget that Sawako isn't a stereotypical shoujo character.
She's been a social outcast for the longest time, therefore her social skills are limited.
And now she's starting to experience being in love for the first time. Any girl would be nervous to talk to the object of her desire, for Sawako it's even worse.

And Kazehaya may be popular, but like any regular guy, he gets nervous around the girl he loves. Sawako with her awkward mixed signals dosn't help either.
So as Taylor-elle pointed out, he has every reason being doubtful about confessing.

On another note, I did feel like kicking Kazehaya for being so incredibly vague with his:
"Forget what I said at that time"
(if that was translated correctly).
Something so open for intrepretation is bound to lead to misunderstandings.


I had a look at the manga a couple of weeks ago and I saw that Sawako was taking her time and I do understand her Awkwardness because I'm realllly shy at school too. Confessing is a veryyyy hard thing to do so I don't expect them to get together for awhile and from the little sneaks peeks into the manga I've had I can't wait!

And I love Sawako's uniqueness thats what makes this My Fav shoujo/romance anime since 2009, including KnT 1st season.

Same here for Sawako's uniqueness and I will also add at how this show portrays so far things. Art wise it's good they took what was nice from season 1 and further developed for the situation of this season.

It rather fits so far well as well as their art uniqueness while conserving their quality and style. I have outlined in one of my spoilers the pics of exactly that moment.

Geez if this was real life, they are sure taking their time!!! Sawako is still thinking about what happened in April for one whole month!(it's May in this episode) The remaining days of April might have been normal or boring that's why they allow a time skip to keep us entertained xDD Even though this series is slow, I'm still lovin' it xDD

PS: Next episode- Misunderstood

I understand why people want Kazehaya to confess already.
But remeber how long it took her just to make friends? And we`re talking about boyfriend here. That`s just too much for sawako...she needs to grow up a little bit and to become more confident.

btw, Kurumi isn`t that evil...neither is Miura.

Hmmm! Well, considering that Kento obviously doesn't respect boundaries, I'd say his conversation with Kazehaya will be something interesting.

Yeah, she is a lot cuter. But I think it's because in season one they kept showing her in the chibi form. I really didn't like that too much because I would forget how she really looks. I watch season one a lot though and I really enjoy it even though not much happens in terms of romantic resolution.

Yeah, I don't think Kurumi is evil. She's just conniving when it comes to staking her claim. lol But I know I'll find her invaluable this season, however briefly she appears. I think both her and Ayane will have the most valuable impact on Sawako and Kazehaya's relationship.

What do you mean? No one in the show thinks that he's a bad guy. Ayane is the only one perceptive enough to realize that he might be up to something but that's about it. Kazehaya probably hasn't even formed an opinion about Kento as yet. He probably just sees Kento as a possible rival and that's all.

I can't help but think that people are confusing Kento's voice actor with the actual character. This is about Kento not the voice actor.

I guess right now Kazehaya thinks it would not be a good idea to confess because after he told Sawako that he thought that he was the closest guy to her, the very next time they meet again he says "good morning" to her and she freezes up and basically behaves very awkwardly. So, he's probably thinking that if what he said created this increased awkwardness, it's probably not a good idea to make it even worse by confessing. He probably thinks it's not the right time. I guess this goes back to Ayane's statement that love is all about the right timing.

Is it me, or has all of Sawako's development from the first season in regards to Kazehaya been completely tossed out the window? I'm glad there's a catalyst now for Kazehaya to act, but jesus christ, every time the two of them have interacted this season, it's been baffling. I would have preferred to have a confession at the end of the first season than have this awful relationship pacing continue. Even better, have more episodes where we can see their established relationship develop! The story doesn't need to end at the confession people!

And yet I still go through the majority of the episode with a big stupid grin on my face...

I know Kent is "the bad guy" however as other people mentioned above he is pushing the development further and faster , also I've got a feeling he'll be extremely far away from the title of "stereotype" until the end of the season , or at least that's what I hope for.

This episode was godly. It was as enjoyable as the other two put together.

I think the idea that the writer is trying to get across here is that Sawako has become so acutely aware of her feelings for Kazehaya that she becomes a nervous wreck especially when she's alone with him.

I second that feeling, I was thinking the same. It seems so strange that all the development in the first season is almost reset to zero - I was hoping Kimi ni Todoke would take a more innovative approach and make them confess soon (which would be natural, given how close they were at the end of season 1) and then have the story focus on their relationship.

As it is now.. it seems the road is pretermined to end at confession with a neat epilogue being the best thing to expect. That would be my horror - a charming and outstanding series taking the road of "default" in the end, instead of taking it "to the next level".

Still, I loved this episode - Kent is introducing a whole new dynamic and I'm SOOOO exited to see what he has to tell Kazehaya *o*

I don't know when I was reading this in the manga it made me super frustrated but I am actually enjoying watching it happen in the anime. Maybe because everything is in motion or something, lol I don't know. I love it when Sawako smiles and every goes "whooaaaa" *0* and gets all starry eyed and shocked, it's really funny and cute. Personally I think Sawako would be good with Kent or Kazehaya, but we all know who she's gonna end up with. I wish this season was longer than 13 episodes but I'll just have to keep reading the manga and if we're lucky we may get a 3rd season one day ^^

I love this anime! But if Kazehaya doesn't just confess to Sawako in the next episode I'm going to be on team Kento.

I think she has better chemistry with Kento. Although Kazehaya and Sawako are cute together, I always find their conversations to be a bit awkward. She can be herself around Kento ^_^

I just decided that I like Kento better!! Whop!!! Whop!!! …..... I also just realized that the likelihood of them ending up together is very low.... so sad

Everyone is blaming Kazehaya but I think Sawako bears a lot of the misunderstanding that is going on here too. If you watch the last two episodes, including this one, every time Kazehaya tries to reach out to Sawako in his own "refreshing way," in the style of his old self from season one, Sawako avoids his gaze. Has she even had a full conversation with him this season while reciprocating his gaze? No. She sorts of give off the impression that she's uncomfortable with him because she avoids his gaze or says "very little" to him. From Kazehaya's perspective, she doesn't appear to be interested in him in that way. Add that to the chocolate incident (which I fully understand the reason why she didn't give him even though I was and am still peeved) where Ryuu, Ping and everyone else gets chocolate BUT Kazehaya, he should be rightfully discouraged about pursuing her. She's friendly with some guy she just met, but treats Kazehaya like that. No wonder Kazehaya is having a hard time with this and the misunderstanding between them continues to deepen.
This x 100.

On the side note, I wonder what Kento's intentions are. Beneficial for Sawako and Kazehaya, since he mentioned being a good guy to Ayane, or to himself. Either way it will encourage Kazehaya again I hope and Sawako to realize she needs to step up the plate too.

Well, I think that it's both their faults because Sawako is so nervous and doesn't really know how to get her feelings across, while Kazehaya doesn't want to risk pushing Sawako into something she's not ready for. They both are so awkward around each other that there are a lot of misunderstandings. As for Sawako acting differently towards Kent, she sees him just as she saw Kazeyhaya at first, someone to admire and someone that actually talked to her. She doesn't know how her interactions with Kent are affecting Kazehaya. I think that Kazehaya should just go for it already and take the leap of faith. It would certainly reduce the amount of misunderstandings going on right now.
*sigh* Well, sooner or later one of them has to give in and confess.

You've got to keep in mind that they weren't on a date at the end of S1. The only reason they were alone together was because of Ayane's set-up.
Atm they're just too unsure about each others feelings to confess.

All o f you who are sincerely hoping that Sawako will end up with kento might as well take it to fan fiction because it’s not going to happen in this canon and with very good reason. Sawako is indeed genuinely in love with Kazehaya and nothing Kento does can change that.

Also, I fully agree with Sawako’s choice. What people fail to realize is that Kento is treating Sawako shallowly. Rather than trying to get to know Sawako…rather than trying to find out what makes Sawako gloomy, he tries to remedy it by trying to get her to smile and act cute all the time because girls are supposed to be cute and smile a lot. *facepalm* It’s a rather simplistic view on girls if you ask me, especially for someone like Sawako who is afflicted with complicated emotions. It’s like he’d rather plaster the wound with a pretty little band-aid than treat the wound itself.

Kazehaya, on the other hand, noticed that he’s never seen Sawako smile again since the day they first met and begins to wonder what she’s like and why she never smiles. He observes her from a far for a few months and when he got the opportunity, he talked to her. He doesn’t try to change her. Rather, he tries to be her friend and constantly encourages her. In other words, he basically accepts her as she is. As a result of this, little by little her world begins to change, she begins to change, and her smiles come more frequently.

What Kento fails to realize is that Sawako is capable of smiling and being cheerful. When Sawako is happy, she smiles from the bottom of her heart. So far we’ve seen that the only people who can make her smile like that are Kazehaya, Yano-chin and Chizu-chan (not including those people who make her smile because she taught them).

I suppose interesting is a subjective view because I also know what will happen and how things will progress and all I will say is that the most interesting thing about it for me was seeing the four friends from season one (Ayane, Chizu, Ryu and Pin) support these two.They really are good friends. Ayane, especially was really great.

That Kento guy needs to be castrated as soon as possible. Those lustful eyes never lie and he also needs to know his place. Sawako is not part of his territory.
