Why he did that? Perfect opportunity to get laid! I don't blame him though, but he's definitely not a sensitive one. Difference is this is an anime, unless it's hentai or perhaps Seinen, you don't see characters doing kind things in the odd chance that they may get laid, besides have you seen how Tohru acts around girls he has an interest in.... zero experience (or so it seems), so I don't think his immediate plan of action was getting laid from it xD I think he is sensitive, but can't read a mood, kind of tactless, but he does understand when someone is upset, confused or depressed, but if it's to do with romance towards himself, he is stupid, being sensitive can be many things, but he definately isn't the crying type of sensitive |

| Liked this episode, though Minko can be an annoying brat sometimes. The whole flashback scene was lovely. |
| I don't think ohana like Tohru...i hope next episode Minko will confess, then tohru will be able to see her in a new light. What a good way to end the episode :] Ookami is planning to let ohana inherit the inn~ i think! |

Beanman is too old and I don't think there's any chance of Ohana's mom inheriting it. I wonder if Ohana would even want to inherit though. |
| I really hope Minchi would confess her feelings to Tohru. It's so obvious that Ohana doesn't like Tohru that way. She's so dense when it comes to any guys liking her. |
| I face palmed at the beach scene. Whether or not if he knew she liked him, it still was a "WTF!?!? Toru!" moment. |

SkyHigh said: IMO Tooru was stupid most this episode because for a moment it looked like he noticed Minko's blushes and reaction but ignored them I shall place a proof of that as I see the episode as I only saw it online and had no time to wait for subs but he seemed to notice it but ignored it.What's this business about Tohru being stupid and dense, they have a WORKING relationship in his mind, she hasn't done anything that would truly peak his interest in regards to going out or her having something more than a student/teacher feelings for him, lot's of people call Tooru stupid or an idiot but it can be hard to tell if someone likes you, especially when you believe you only have a certain form of relationship with them, I understand Tooru because I've been in his situation (as in the not understanding that someone likes me or realizing it) so it annoys me when people call him an idiot, though someone of his actions could be classed as idiotic such as the hotel scene, but once again why would he think anything different, he doesn’t know she has feelings for him, and he most likely doesn’t have feelings for her at the moment (that doesn't mean he can't develop some though). SkyHigh said: Yes she tried really hard to show her face full of expression that may not be obvious at first but a closer look to fine details is all it needs and Tooru should have that in him as a chef. So yes Minko for her character and personality is trying hard but perhaps it may be not enough compared to other girls and the lengths they went in animes to get a character they love.Question to all those who claim Minko has tried so hard, what is it that she has done that gives you such an impression? From what I’ve seen she's basically just been kind, sometimes blushed, sure she's been having a hard TIME over it, but her efforts aren't anything spectacular, lackluster instead would be the best way to put it, I mean think of that bookstore girl who likes Kou, she clearly knows what she wants and she's really tried, she confessed and everything, now compare that to Minko. SkyHigh said: Of course Takako is not inheriting the inn because it must be Ohana!.Hmm I don't really like Takako or Enishi, but I did feel a slight tingle of warmth from Sui talking with Takako, but then she trolls them telling Takako she isn't inheriting the Inn. SkyHigh said: I said that the first time, my friend totally went bonkers on me saying I am exaggerating and 2 episodes down the road I am totally right! HA! Yeah pretty much.(P.S. anyone with Yuri goggles on should have noticed Mizuno and Nako blush in unison when Yuina mentioned the red curtains being kind of erotic!) |

You do know that people can blush from many things right, even if he noticed the blush and ignored it, that means nothing, should I think every girl who blushes around me wants me or something? Probably not, it would lead to a lot of misunderstandings :P He could have ignored a blush to make her not feel embarrassed after all Tohru is no mind reader, except when it's Ohana and then he can sometimes do it.... wierd. Showing facial expressions is not enough, it really is not enough, it's as if she is trying to give him hints and then he has to decifer them and then ask her out because she can't do it herself, been there when I was a very shy person, it doesn't work, people don't know what you're thinking, so you have to come out and say it, regardless of all the nice/lovey dovey??? looks you give them or kind facial expressions and so forth, in the end Minko wasn't doing enough and thus Tohru stood no chance of knowing :P Btw I am guessing you are a Minko x Tohru supporter or something, I personally have no pairings for this, got sick of it after around 12-14 episodes when I realised nothing is going to happen :P |

Jolon said: Well she can handle them so if Tooru can then so much the better but as a cook his job is super busy.Tohru's description of a noisy home with five children sounds like Nako's ideal life too. Lulexiaa said: Well someone said of the back story being Sui and her husband being a cook, well could be a foreshadow of Tooru x Ohana but I want my Minko x Tooru and Ohana x Kou. It would be awesome if Kou get into the inn and blows off Tooru with his cook skills. Who knows. Gosh... I guess my dream of Ohana x Tohru will never work out T__T.. Sanguis said: Yeah agree, Tooru you dense moron! I really got pissed off at that Ohana mention, again Tooru was too dense to realize the hurt he caused to Minko with that one word.Tohru was a insensitive bastard with Minko at the beach. Seriously, what the hell? LightningRamiel said: I would not be surprised in regards to your mention being a sudden rushed ending. I would prefer not to and have things solves naturally or logically but haste is known to make waste so who know if that will happen. Your statement does lead into thinking that.Also, Tohru's conversation on the beach was still kinda vague, and I almost wouldn't be surprised if the whole love triangle/square debacle just ends up being one big miscommunication clusterf*ck LightningRamiel said: I agree with that, he does see her as a cute thing but I would not bet too much of it because he blushed a few times while thinking about her so it could be love too.(I think he sees Ohana more like a precocious little sister or maybe a small dog). Minko just needs to get over herself and go all in with the whole Tohru thing. |
| was i the only one thinking holy SH** when Madam Manager was bowing, only then to be trolled by her in the end. ps poor minko can't be honest with ourselves now can we?. |

SkyHigh said: That's the problem with Tooru he is too dense but I also see the problem of no one telling him that Minko likes him. I hope Ohana will tell him about it. It could solve a lot if so.Yumekichi11 said: IMO Tooru was stupid most this episode because for a moment it looked like he noticed Minko's blushes and reaction but ignored them I shall place a proof of that as I see the episode as I only saw it online and had no time to wait for subs but he seemed to notice it but ignored it.

Well anyway he is too dense so he did not notice what the blushes may mean at the work place. SkyHigh said: Yeah I support Minko x Tooru and Ohana x Kou.BTW I am guessing you are a Minko x Tohru supporter or something, I personally have no pairings for this, got sick of it after around 12-14 episodes when I realized nothing is going to happen :P |

If Ohana inherit the INN, there would be war between uncle and niece, because she hasn't been there long to place debs on the INN. BitchMaster said: ROFL I've to agree w/ you!

BitchMaster said: I'll never look at LIFE the same way EVER AGAIN!!! Thnx a bunch d00d :) My pleasure, and now I try to forget the Beanman x Nako picture you planted in my head. But yes, it's up to Nako now to get a decent yuri moment in. MrRogers said: Haha, just combining the obvious facts.Minko knew that with 5 children to go Toru wanted to get a head start. |
| Ren x that waitress? Impossible. o _o I don't really know. This episode was just quite derp. They finally made madam manager seem like a nice character then bam. They throw in the cliffhanger. Ah, I dunno. Somehow I don't think that she'd leave the inn in Ohana's hands. |
 |
| I actually found myself enjoying the episode, but now that I finished it, I'm right back at "meh." |
| from the preview for the next ep, there is a scene that Nako found a pair of school uniform seems abandonned on the table, I wonder is it possible that Minko is gonna runaway or is she simply gonna quit school? based on the title of the ep, both cases seems possible |
 |
| The ending surprised me. I guess I'm just not used to the manager acting like that. The bath scene would have been better if they split up the drama and fanservice, I think. |
| The Inn is set for Ohana period but if history repeats itself it would be Ironic because Okami-san's husband look likes Ko-chan but a chef like Tohru. So the real battle is between Ko-chan and Tohru >_< LOL |
| I just downloaded this ep. This has reminded to watch it already :D |

|
| No one probably noticed this tiny detail but I find it cute. When Minko apologized here to Tooru she said she could not say something to Tooru while crying, which was really sad but no one noticed that they gave out a little hint as to what in the spoiler |

XD |
|
| Wow, that episode was beautiful....possibly my favourite of the series thus far. |
|
Applecrack said: Big tear jerker at the end then granny crushed it LOL Yeah I'm surprised nobody has really picked up on that sooner. LMAO. "I thought you weren't going to let us succeed the Inn?" "Your right, I'm not" *crickets* Wouldn't it be funny if devil woman bails on Enishi because of that and then because there's this wedding ALL set up. A surprise moment breaks out and 2 of the employees step into the spot? (I'd hope for Minko and Tohru) 5 more weeks and I still don't see and end game building up. I hope it doesn't get a bit rushed like the ToraDora ending. |
| This would be perfect with just a little bit more drama. I always feel like the drama stops right before it was about to get good. |
| Very nice episode. Minko is starting to frustrate me though. Ohana hasn't the slightest idea about Tohru liking her and because of Minko being jealous, Ohana gets all the crap. Tohru wasn't insensitive. He had no way of really knowing about Minko's feelings for him (other than the occasional blush). So bringing up Ohana at the beach has nothing to do with being insensitive, he was simply pointing out the similarities. Big shock at the end though. It's great that the landlady acknowledges her now, but I think she maybe wants Ohana to take over the inn? |
 |
| A few people have mentioned the bath scene felt out of place amidst the drama of the Minko X Tohru X Ohana triangle, but I thought it served its purpose in reminding us of episode 4 in the same place where Ohana first discovers Minko's crush which lead to them at odds over Tohru again. Having re-watched episode 13 so many times now, and with the issue of who will inherit Kissuiso raised again, I can't help but wish Satsuki would make an appearance in these last few episodes. |
| I so fukken want to know how conflict between Minko, Tohru and Ohana will be resolved. Looking at how Ohana seem to have no interest in Tohru, she got to know he likes her in this episode and 5 episodes seem to be enough for her to develop some feeling. But i'd rather see her not doing so, Tohru could actually notice Minko, yes that'd be good. And yeah, that thing with ookami-san at the end, maybe not shocking but i sure wasn't expecting her to say it after telling Takako her backstory (wich was kinda nice, yes). I have a feeling ookami-san actually wants Satsuki to take over inn. I have no clue how she'd think that would work out though. |

| HAHAHA. beach scene slap in the face. i hate minchi, so i'm biased. still a bitch as ever i see though. even more, she's the kind of girl that blames the other girl for a guy liking her. pathetic. |
| Tooru is idiot :( When Okami says that she won't give Kissuisso to her son I have laugh a lot :D |

It's almost like she's a real life tsundere! It only works in fiction... IRL they end up like Minko :( |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
| So far, the best episode of the series so I rated it five. It has a lot of dramatic scenes as well as funny moments. Also, with so much shockers going on, I just can't get enough~ To know what I’m talkin’ about, view my spoilers. OsamaMyLlama said: oh great we got the classic trope of "overly jealous other girl" honestly i didnt care to much for the shippings till now, now i really do not want a minko pairing, im so sick of these types of characters "oh how DARE you not even attempt to steal my man I HATE YOU GO DIE" like really what possible way could tohru could have known about ANY of this Yes, I AGREE. you're totally right. |

AstuteOtaku said: -Tomoe was great, and she opened her eyes to another romantic possibility because of natto? Well, whatever floats your boat. I like how Ren some how felt her change of mood and that she was giving him "the eye". (not a bad match, he's right there, single, has a stable job, and it would be easy to get to know him. He's 14 years older (28 vs. 42) but she could do much worse. And as long as the two of them can still have kids her parents will be happy. Ok... I have spent WAAAY too much time on this topic. A little older but his a nice man. He ain't a bad catch, he will give her a good life. Strange but that was what it peeked my interest most. Besides we already know all the Torou staff. So the silly Enichi finally managed to get his gal. Good for him. Last line was such a jaw dropping though. It seems she plans to leave the inn to Ohana. Grandma had the looks at her youth. She was a fine woman. |
| @Momo-Hime, I still have doubts that Ohana has any romantic feelings for Tohru, the translation might be off. The series isn't complicated enough to set her up w/ Tohru, when she still doesn't know what "love" is, regarding Ko of course (left him hanging w/ miscommunication again, he can't read YOUR MIND OHANA!). The inheritances of the home, Satsuki or Ohana or better yet Tomoe? Do you remember the previous owner left the house to Ohana grandparents? There was previous episode regarding Tomoe future and what she should do in life. I give some thought to the coincidence of TohruxOhana and the grandparents respective lives, but thats such a corny way to end it, when there not enough development w/ TohruxOhana in the love department, with only few episodes left and fixing her friendship w/ Minko. Let me know your thoughts regarding Tomoe XD edit** Tomoe 28? Damn, I thought she was around 22-24 O_O |
|
| It would be pretty cheesy if the inn is left to Ohana. |
| I still think that Ko will come back in in the story before the end, I mean, it would be too disappointing if he really had left the anime in that way when they were in Tokyo, he is still an important character for this series. 5 episodes left until the end...many things can happen |

| Anything = Enishing lol |
| After this episode I don't care about the love triangle anymore (I even doubt that Tohru has ROMANTIC feelings for Ohana). Minko might be possessive bitch, but in the shower scene she is right about Ohana's anoying personality. Also I'm surprised that Enishi and Takako aren't going to inherit the inn. Then Ohana is the only possible future owner. And I hope that Tomoe and Renji will end up together, they would be a great couple. |
 |
| I know how Minko feels but that's just selfish. :/ Only 5 eps left and still no news about Ko. lol The backstory of Madam Manager and her husband was quite sweet. :) |
| I know that song that played while Tohro and Minko were in the car. Does anybody knows what it was? Oh god, why does thou teases me so much? I actually thought it couldn't be true about that love hotel, and it wasn't, but it was such a nice thought. I'm still thinking it's impossible to make an end to this show in the short time left. Kou should really appear at least once, for what reason it is I don't care anymore, because I'm almost sure it's impossible for Ohana and Kou to work it out. But he should just appear once to clear everything up, otherwise the end won't be good. But still, a lot can happen in 5 episodes. |
