Looks like Doumoto is trying to make a move on Kobato. I wonder if Fujimoto is going to intervene. Too bad for Doumoto because I don't think Kobato understands what he's trying to express.

that ended on a rather bitter note. two failed attempts at confessing and not a single happy thing happened today. i wonder what she will do when she has to leave.

What's up with all that candy? I can't remember her spreading all that happiness. Was she working in the hospital as a nurse or something?

I knew Doumoto would pull something this episode; that son of a bitch!

My primary complaint is the wrong sound effect used when Fujimoto hanged up. It was clearly a land line phone sound effect. What's up with that?!

In the manga I'm totally Fujibato fan. But in the anime they make Fujimoto more jerk. Doumoto is so kind, and when he starting to talk... *______* So go Doumoto (in the anime). XD
Sorry for my bad English. ^^'

I kinda agree with you. Doumoto rarely shows up at all in the manga. The chances of him being a third wheel was like 0.00000000001% but the anime is obviously different. Still, I don't think Kobato's gonna end up with anybody other than Fujimoto, if she ends up with anyone at all.

The same was done when the season transitioned from Summer to Fall. There is an apparent time skip and we're supposed to assume she earned those konpeito at some point during the last season. I think the animators are trying to completely finish Kobato, instead of leaving it hanging, because it will be years before CLAMP gives us a real ending. :)

A friend of mine told me that the anime will have a filler ending, most probably because the manga comes out too slow >.<

Anyway, I kinda like how things started to turn out in the anime ^^" I mean Doumoto is really such a nice guy and he'll perfectly fit Kobato x3 Though I'm still a Fujibato supporter, I really look forward to see how will this love triangle develop :3

If I made a ranking of couples it would be:
1- KobatoxIorogi (LOL)
2- KobatoxDoumoto
3-KobatoxFujimoto (ugge ugge)

I haven't read the manga yet. So can't really judge fair. Iorogi is already speaking of the couple Dobato, so. Lets hope for the best :D

Fujibato all the way.
Doumoto is nice, but I don't think he would be good for Kobato..

And besides, maybe since Fujimoto sees that Doumoto is interested in Kobato, he'll start trying to fight for her?

When Doumoto admits to liking Kobato with his line "I like girls like you" and she smiles and thanks him, I just wanted to facepalm. (Not because I think Kobato is all that slow (though she is), but because I did the same thing when I was in high school when this guy gave me roses for Valentine's Day and I thanked him for being such a good friend *oiii*)

Also, talk about awkward endings. Doumoto goes full blown romantic on Kobato by asking her to spend Christmas with him and black cloud Fujimoto shows up and suddenly you hear crickets. And Kobato runs off. So then Doumoto pretends like nothing is wrong and quietly walks away, while Fujimoto explodes inside.

I mean, Fujimoto just had a really REALLY bad day. And then he comes home and sees that Kobato and Doumoto just spent the whole day together. And Kobato didn't mind. And Fujimoto JUST realized that he kind of likes her. I know this guy has issues, but this is just kicking a man when he's down.

Oh and Doumoto is so cute n_n He's so nice and thoughtful. The only bad thing is that clearly he won't end up with Kobato, especially knowing how Clamp loves to do the whole "unrequited love" triangle. It's too bad though, because Doumoto is clearly nice and a good guy, and Fujimoto is such a jerk most of the time.

Well actually in the manga Ioryogi explained that Kobato heal alot of hearts during the bazar :D

^ Agreed, very different feel to the last episode.

Doumoto really is such a nice guy... but Kobato already seems to admire Fujimoto so much, with his moods easily swaying her own emotions.

LOL I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING.

aww aww AWWW Doumotoooo<3 he doesn't stand a chance, obviously, because it was always going to be Fujibato, and that depresses me, cause Fujimoto treats Kobato like crap and has a fricking WEIRD character design...and Doumoto is sweet and adorable and voiced by Hiroshi Kamiya hnnnngh >n<

DOBATO FTW. T^T

Before he even mentioned that he liked girls like Kobato, I was thinking about how Domoto and Kobato would make a good couple.

I'll be cheering for Domoto/Kobato now. :3

I agree with this. I'm a supporter of Fujimoto/Kobato because I find their relationship funny and ironic. :)

Anyway, interesting episode! I thought the Appendicitis part was so random though! XD Hopefully the loan shark will thank Kobato for her kindness.

This episode was different from previous ones. Unlike other episodes where she tried to heal other people's heart but fail, here, she didn't even try. I kinda understand why ioryogi was annoyed at her.

loved this episode, also, Kobato looks a lot like Sakura in this episode.

Really awkward episode, imo.
Domoto confessing to Kobato felt so weird and empty because I didn't expect it.
Esp. right after all this drama with the random thug collapsing from appendicitis. It doesn't feel right. It just feels like he's using this situation to his advantage. What a creep!
Fujimoto is being a dick for no reason. He saw Kobato helping the thug and he even called Okiura to get a chance to talk to him.
And here I am, like Ioryogi, yelling at Kobato to get her Konpeito together.

Did I just see that right? Did Domoto confess to Kobato? That is something I totally didn't see coming. Too bad she doesn't understand the true meaning of love (yet) and what he's actually trying to tell her.

Fujimoto acts as indifferent as always, though I'm sure he picked up on this. I guess the next move is now his to make.

When I was watching this, I realize I'm starting to like Doumoto's character. I absolutely fell in love with him after his two moves on Kobato. Too bad that Kobato didn't understand what he was saying, She must have thought he's trying to cheer her up. I also think that Fujimoto is realizing his feelings for Kobato. (I think)

Judging from the preview, I'm think the next episode is going to be awesome. :D

Hope I'm not totally alone in saying that I completely didn't expect that from Doumoto. o_O I prefer KobatoxFujimoto.

Didn't feel like much happened in this episode... except that we can see that Kobato doesn't get what Doumoto was trying to express and tell her... Even if she likes Fujimoto, she probably wouldn't understand her own feelings, it seems.

Oh shit Domoto is outplaying Fujimoto. I think I just heard a confession from Domoto but unfortunately Kobato didn't really get what he was trying to say to her, lmao. I wonder if Domoto was about to ask Kobato out on christmas because he was saying something but Fujimoto came suddenly. Come on Fujimoto, don't lose to this Domoto guy, although they're both nice. :(

Okay so what the fuk how did Kobato get all those Konpeito? It's already winter and the bottle is almost filled, the heck fast forward much? Lol it's only a metter of time before she fills it up completely.

As for that guy who was standing, I think that's considered as harrasment because his presence is harrasing everyone around him. Yea, that's what you get for harrasing, an appendicitis.

I'm so on team Domoto xd When he first appeared I was like; don't trust him wanna bet he's the person who Fujimoto hates the most?! He's tricking you! But then I released I was watching Kobato so that wouldn't happen xd

I really like Domoto (great name btw, but I always have to think about Doumeki from xxxHolic -only the name, not the character himself) but I love that name too haha :) I don't dislike Fujimoto but he's just too cold and "in his shell" for a person like Kobato, I find it hard to imagine them together... xd I'm curious how the anime will end and if they're gonna spend Christmas together :D

I personally don't think Fujimoto deserves Kobato at all, he's been a total repressive for the entire series upto yet, aside from a few moments of slight happiness! Doumoto however is a really nice character, really cares about Kobato and is the entire opposite yet we know who she will fall for :/
