This reminds me of Toradora:



I don't get why she is pissing you guys off, look at the other side of the picture. If I liked someone for a long time and out of no where, someone later seemed to be grabbing this person away from me, I would be irritated too haha.

It's hard to say who deserves him more, but Kurumi isn't really helping as she is taking the path of manipulating the situation to get Sawako away from him instead of trying to "seduce" him and ask him out. I know shes afraid of rejection, but she isn't really accomplishing anything by temp misunderstandings that will never last forever and will ultimately make the situation worse for her.

I was hoping that the competition would be much more intense than this, but it seems like Kurumi is making obvious blunders all of the place, I was hoping she would be a genius or something so she would make the competition more interesting!

I can understand why she'd want to dissuade Sawako, but, since Sawako is the MC/Protagonist of the story, we're inclined to side with her. That, and there's the fact that she's a better person than Kurumi. It's only natural that we'd root for her.

ASNFMDSNABDNVMDSNBDVFMDSANM let me kill Kurumi--

Seriously, I have no problem with her feelings, but she handles them the wrong way. If she really cares that much for Kazehaya she shouldn't manipulate him like that, when it's quite obvious it's going to hurt him. (I mean, come on. The arrow thing! ono I was just like... *KURUMI HATE*) I could sympathise with her, but she's so easy to hate ahsjkdsa. I was quite happy with Ryu being sweet until she turned up and started ruining the situation again. =w=

Poor Kazehaya. I feel so bad for him. Being deceived by Kurumi like that. A jealous guy is sexy though haha XD Him dropping the cones to run to her was adorable. I was all "TAKE THAT KURUMI!!" (I do feel bad for her, but it's not right for her to manipulate people)

After it became very good

I don't hate Kurumi but her attitude is annoying. Instead of trying to keep everyone from dating Kazehaya, she should have started dating him herself. Her current plan makes her seem crazy.

Kurumi's plans are getting more and more ridiculous - and Kazehaya still likes Sawako. Ayane was great in this episode, her talk with Kurumi was really well done. She'll stand up for her friends no matter what. Ryu liking Chizu is really cute. Next episode looks like it's going to be great.

Ryuu <3 I wouldn't expect him to be so open to Sawako about his feelings, but I guess he knows what Kazahaya feels.

I can understand Kurumi, but her actions are really silly and unnecessary. Manipulating and hurting the person you love is quite stupid. By doing that it's hard for her to get any sympathy.

Hopefully, Yano knows what's going on, with her help it'll be turn out the "fair" way.

Next episode's preview leaves hope for something really interesting. Finger crossed for Sawako.

Kazehaya getting jealous and mad for two reasons. One, Ryuu told Kazehaya he liked her as a friend only. The 2nd reason Kazehaya thinks Ryuu lied to him so that he can have Sawako to himself. Wow, the mess Ume-chan is causing.

The conversation between Yano and Ume was a bit unexpected for me, and I kind of feel like Yano knows Ume started those rumors based on Yano's responses.

Damn, this show is so predictable xD
When my prediction in my post are right, and I must precise that I'm almost always wrong, it's because the show is way too predictable :P

Anyway, Kazehaya was so fucking mad at the end. It looked like he wanted to beat the crap out of him from his eyes.

Ryu was pretty badass. He looked way more confident and deep(?) than before. Who didn't knew that he loved Chizu? It was written on his face.

Hehe, right after last episode. I knew Yano and Ryuu would provide some clarity to the situation.

Kurumi is still a fucking bitch and I really hope Kazehaya sees her without her mask on soon.

Yano quickly became my favorite character because of this episode.

That was a pretty clever plan by Kurumi - sure, it required a bit of luck, but in the end it went as she had hoped.
Normally I am a fan of characters that can manipulate others but I'm not really sure in this case.

Kurumi is desperate to hang on to Kazehaya, if anything he seems like the victim here.
He is being hurt the most, by the actions of a girl who supposedly loves him the most.

I completely agree with this. It might be one thing for Kurumi to confess, but these are not the actions of someone who loves Kazehaya. Love cares more about its object than itself.

Still, I'm not worried at this point. I'm quite convinced that Kazehaya will clear this up immediately; Ryu already told him that he doesn't have feelings for Sawako, after all.

Speaking of which, I really enjoyed Sawako and Ryu's talk. I already knew that Ryu was in love with Chizu because of what he said to her in an earlier episode, but this made for a nice confirmation and is helping Sawako along as well.

Yano's talk with Kurumi was pretty good too.

It was a very satisfactory episode.

Kurumi thinks she paving a way for her and Kazehaya to be together, but in reality she's just encouraging the Sawako X Kazehaya pairing even more.

The last scene proves it right there.

This episode starts with kurumi still trying to set Sawako up with Ryu. She says he’s a nice guy and should be no different than Kazehaya. Sawako says she’d rather focus on watching Kazehaya play ball and that she shares the same feelings towards him as Kurumi. Kurumi gets angry and says Sawako doesn’t even feel close to what she does and mentions how hard she tries for Kazehaya, always trying to talk to him or watch him play ball, weather it be in wind, rain or snow. She really does love the guy. But really, Sawako feels no different.
For the first time, she thinks it might be possible that she has romantic feelings for Kazehaya.

I really loved the scene with the OP playing in the background, it sounded so nice. It’s so cute how much Sawako appreciates those around her. All of her friends are so sweet.

Kazehaya seemed to be a bit worried about Ryu’s feelings for Sawako. Ryu clears things up though. It’s funny that he can never get Sawako’s name right. It was cute that Kazehaya wished he was the one to grab that ball.

Ayane and Kurumi had a bit of a confrontation. Ayane basically called her out for spreading all the rumors about her in middle school and all the rumors about Sawako recently. Kurumi better watch herself cause Ayane clearly isn’t playing around. I thought it was great that Ayane said that Sawako was the perfect love rival for Kurumi. Especially with how Kurumi keeps trying to convince herself that Sawako is nothing next to her.

Looks like Kurumi forged a letter in Sawako’s name addressed to Ryu. It said she wanted to meet him alone. I can see where this is going..
Kurumi convinces Sawako to meet Ryu and they talked, though probably not in the way Kurumi was hoping. Sawako started asking him about romantic feelings and he actually confessed that he likes Chizu! Just as I thought. Though it was really pretty obvious.

Ugh...Kurumi is really trying to make me hate her in this episode..she talks with Kazehaya and tells him Sawako would never want to date him, and that she only had eyes for Ryu. The liar...and of course poor Kazehaya is gonna believe her, he was so hurt.

I like that when asked about the logic of love, Ryu said there was no logic, you just one day suddenly realize how special someone is to you.

Of course Kurumi tries to show Kazehaya that Ryu and Sawako have feelings for each other, bringing him to their little “romantic rendezvous,” Seeing it instantly breaks poor Kazehaya, not a reaction Kurumi was expecting. Let’s hope this gets cleared up quick.

Well, when subtlety doesn't work... you definitely went all out this time Kurumi xD but seriously, her actions are becoming more and more pathetic with every new plan. I was just thinking but... with so much scheming and stuff, I think it would have been way easier to just get the guts to confess herself but well.

Regarding the episode, it was a very good one and it also helped me to establish Ayane as my favorite character and Ryuu being the second one. I just loved the way she confronted Kurumi and confirmed the fact that she was the one who started the rumors. Not to mention also that Ryuu's interactions with both Kazehaya and Sawako were really nice.

So far, it seems the secondary characters are the strongest point in this series.
