| Naoki ftw why he is so cruel!!!!!!!! If Naoki keeps like that way Kotoko will be tired and fed up of it. Cant he think it he must be very clever right?! But when it comes to Kotoko he just get cruel only. Ahh geez >.< |
| OMG...the end was like OMG that Irie...why isn't he honest??? i mean you tell your wife you're jealous and that's it..the end of story. but no.. i can't wait to see ep 19 ^^ |
| LOL you already seen 18 episodes and you still ask why Irie isn't honest? I still don't get why how does people approved Keita to steal someone's wife? Do you think just by seeing someone everyday and you can understand their everyday life? |

Do you think just by seeing someone everyday and you can understand their everyday life? I dont approve anything like that. Ofcourse it isnt a good thing. I'm not saying "Kotoko choose Keita" or smt. Kotoko didnt even think to cheat his husband till now. I dont think she will fall over him. (if this anime doesnt make me shock) But Irie STILL behaves cruel. Even they are MARRIED. Wtf is that...Is he sadistic or smt?! He should change his cold behaves. Doesnt he love her? Thats enough already. Even his mom complains about it. |
| lol thats why kids will always be kids. its rather ironic that hes far more apealing to girls than kotoko is to guys and yet shes the most likely to be stolen than he is. his attitude is just crap in the mud. |
| D: fuckin idiot Naoki...but I'll still root for u Tsumetai-san! Screw that ugly head Keita ;p |
  |
| Finally, it came. Irie-kun is losing ground. He really doesn't know what to do and what is happening. Keita isn't too bad but the chivalrous part irks me a bit. Why does he need to save her? I guess I am asking irrelevant questions here. That was an very good episode. I rarely feel the need to re-watch an INK episode but today yes. There's always one of the partners who'll love the other more. Well, at least, Irie Naoki should show more love than that. |
| the weird part was when kotoko automatically assumed tomoko liked keita.. if you know your classmate is about to get poked 100 times by a needle, wouldn't you show your concern? -_- meh i dunno, the fact that theyre still in school probably affects their actions towards each other (naoki & kotoko). other people are still around to interrupt their relationship so. i hope kotoko understands. |
 |
| i feel sorry for Kotoko.... stupid irie.. |
     |
| One thing we have to remember about Irie is that he is emotionally stunted. He doesn't KNOW what jealousy is. Honestly, he has gotten anything he has ever wanted and more. He hasn't had to try for anything. Everything has come naturally and easy. He has never been frustrated, or antzy, or anxious. Especially not jealous. So what does a "child" do when they are faced with something they don't understand. They back off. It reminds me of the old "girls have cooties" tale that all the boys use, (or girls) because they don't understand. He may be very educationally mature, but he has the emotions of a 5year old. Thats why it makes this marriage so interesting :D And people wondered what this arc would be about! |
Zeino said: Kotoko didnt even think to cheat his husband till now. I dont think she will fall over him. (if this anime doesnt make me shock) She hasn't thought about cheating at all including this episode however she was thinking about why she got married to Irie. I honestly don't think she will think about cheating. You cant dismiss your 5 year love in a blink of an eye like that. I'm sure she will reject Keita in a nice way but at the same time try and figure out why shes with Irie and it will probably cause some misunderstandings between Irie and her. |

| great great episode. cant wait for next one! |
     |
| that was SUCH a good episode <3 omg ... at first i wanted kotoko to be with irie... and now i'd much rather see her with keita D: argh this series is getting so good now, i can't wait to see the drama and conflicts <3 |
| lol tomoko's awesome |
| I'm amazed about the approach they are giving to Keita being in love with a married woman, Kotoko that is :P. I don´t approve at all that a person comes so aggresively into a couple's life and act like he knows better. But, I think I do understand one part : nobody is bound to live miserably, married or not we choose someone to be happy, if the person treats you like crap at somepoint you are going to snap. Keita is taking advantage of that and yeah, he is a good kid with many appealing points. I did wonder for a while there why the hell Irie was still being such a stuck up, and I agreed with his mom when she asked herself in one episode "are they having trouble in bed?", 'cause I really can't even IMAGINE how that part is going, It was probably just that one time during the honeymoon! and if not then ....it has to suck! Irie has come to be disliked 'cause he just won´t lose that cold barrier... not even for kotoko. |
 |
| Same thing as usual A ordinary episode with an extraordinary cliffhanger that makes you want to watch the next one ... |
| Poor Kotoko. Let's see how Irie handles this next episode ya~ |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| the thing is, that Irie don't know, how he should react in his situation. Cause he don't even feel something for other ppls before. ^^ I hope, he know, what he should do, cause he can lost Kotoko. sry 4 bad english xD |
 |
| Wow, now that was an ending! o: If I was Kotoko I would definitely have ditched Irie by now! |
  |
| This was one of my favorite episodes so far, just because it finally made Irie notice that he's not the center of Kotoko's universe and that there are other guys willing to take his place at any time. Hopefully, Keita will force Irie to notice that Kotoko is not confident in her relationship with him since he never willingly shows his affection for her, and this will cause some changes in his actions and behavior towards her. |
 |
| RAWR now i want to see the next episode >_>; i wanna see what happens between keita and kotoko zomg if kotoko breaks away from keita and realizes irie is the one she loves, i'll be unsatisfied D: i need DRAMA. |

| Catching up with the past 4 episodes I've been ignoring, seeing new characters was surely refreshing, since every character up to then had managed to disappoint me. And then we get Keita. I was seriously thinking about dropping the show until he came around - finally a breath of fresh air and rationality about the ridiculous way Irie treats Kotoko. I can't really blame Irie, since I'm sure jealousy is a foreign emotion to him. However, he had it coming. Hopefully now that he has a serious rival, he'll begin to realize how much he's wronged. Also, I'm glad to see Kotoko is beginning to be serious about something in her life that is not Irie. Dear God, seeing a woman doing everything in her life based on a man just annoys me to no end. Doesn't she have hopes and dreams of her own? But if she continues to show interest in what she's doing, then I'll be satisfied. For now, I just want their relationship to go somewhere near healthy. |

| Mhm...and THAT'S what happens when you marry somebody who has never ever been nice to you, not even once. Irie pisses me off. But I can't wait for the next episode muahaha! Its gonna be juicy >:D |
     |
| it was ok, can't wait for the next episode. |
 |
| I agree with Keita, Kotoko should break up with that guy! Irie pisses me off, he has never cared about Kotoko anyway! I feel sorry for poor Kotoko... |
| i love keita. he's such a nice guy. the moment at the end was so cute. I just wish naoki would be more.... openly jealous. it's sort of disheartening. |
| i'm starting to like keita... irie was really mean to kotoko!!! he'll really regret it when kotoko decides to go with keita... |
AngelLily said: Doesn't she have hopes and dreams of her own? hasn't it been made clear that her hopes and dreams are to live with Naoki Irie, no matter what it takes? That's all that's needed by some. I do agree that the reason Irie is acting like this is, as others have said, due to his not knowing how to react to the emotions he's feeling. He'll quickly realize what he's done wrong, he is intelligent after all, but it might take him some time to actually act on his realization and feelings. There are still 7-8 episodes left, plenty can happen still. |
 |
| Well Irie has always been like that. no surprise that Irie is cold, but it's not exactly a good thing either.. |
| interesting episode with another badly hurt kotoko, iam really wondering how she can stand all this... and i wonder how she deserves to be treated so coldhearted, i cant imagine how i would act or feel in this situation. |
| *coughs* Okay, is anyone else reminded of the Twilight book series? >.> I just started watching this show a couple days ago, and now with Keita and Naoki I can't stop thinking of Jacob and Edward, haha. |
| too bad kotoko is just too stupid to forget about naoki :/ |
| I really like Keita, he seems like a good guy :) Wonder what will happen next! |
     |
| im i the only person here who sees a resemblance from the Twilight Series Books o.o.... |

QFT How can you deal with something well when you have never experienced such a thing before? Its like telling a guy to drive a car down a motorway when hes never driven a car before lol. Bad analogy but yea. Series is getting interesting now. |

| I'm getting really pissed of at Irie, i mean, i know its his personality. but he could at least try being more passionate. I mean, he probably has a dead face during sex too i swear to god. I mean shit, don't get me wrong, i'm KotokoxIrie all the way, but if i was in Kotoko's position i just might do something stupid and go to Keita. |
| I've got to sympathize with Irie. Of course, I have a very similar personality to him (though not as extreme), so I understand what he's thinking. We're both INTJ's (Myers-Briggs). He just doesn't know how to express his feelings. What may be easy for someone else in a relationship is difficult and unnatural for him. He's a caring person, but he's not going to cry with or comfort people to show it. The main way he can show his love is through actions and quality time. |
| Hoping Kotoko ends up with Keita and Naoki ends up old and alone then dies of a heart attack while yelling at children to get off his lawn. |
| Keita is so much better than Naoki, at least he cares i hope Kotoko ends up with him |
| Kotoko is finally realizing that maybe being in such an abusive relationship might not be a good thing for her. She is seriously considering Keita at this point, he is the second nice guy to tell her that she deserves better than asshole Naoki, I guess the difference now is that Keita is a lot more handsome than Kin-chan so now she thinks she has a reason to leave Naoki, god is she shallow. Although I don't think it will happen, I'm still hoping for KotokoXKeita. |
| Come visit my town // I apologize in advance for my second-rate English Join my fan club // Improve the transport network |
| She should just dump Naoki's ass and get happy with Keita... >___> I wouldn't stick around such a cold bastard for so long. She doesn't seem to have any selfesteem. |
| Damn Keita, ruining a perfectly good relationship. Kotoko and Irei's relation ain't looking that good. |
 |
| Oh boy! Irie sure has heavy competition, I do hope she's not that stupid to leave him... that new guy is quite the smooth talker but I dislike him... oh well lets just hope Kotoko isn't that stupid. |
 |
| More drama I didn't expect something like this to happen after they got married. I lol'd when Naoki's mom said she would've left Naoki for Keita if she was in Kotoko's position. |
