THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
This was a pretty good episode. A lot of developments. I particularly enjoyed the hints given of future drama.

Anyway, things to discuss include:
- Yumi finally going for Kouchi (I liked it how they held hands)
- Mao looking somewhat devastated after seeing Yumi and Kouchi walking under the rain
- Sakino liking Kazuki
- Futami liking Kazuki even more, and
- A possible relationship between Hiiragi and Mitsuki

I enjoyed it too. It really sucks though that Yuumi's going to leave, that's what it looks like anyway. I'm sure she's fallen for him long ago and is now trying to speed things up since her time's running out.

It was another nice episode. This series is turning into something good. After the first 2 episodes I wouldn't predict that. I'm glad JCStaff managed to pleasantly surprise me again.

If it's two months until she leaves, her and Kouichi could very well continue a long distance relationship. It's happened before. But I agree with cryuz - it looks like she's trying to speed things up since she's leaving.

Otherwise, not really much else to say. Nothing really happened. I was looking forward to all the "fortune" stuff coming true, but it didn't really xD

This was a great ep as always. I'm happy Kai kind of figured out how she feels. I'm hopping Mao and Kouichi eventually relies how each other feels. The part with Futami was great. I definitely want to see them together in the end but somehow I think Sakino will unintentionally mess things up. Kind of like How Kouichi is making things complicated for Mao without either of them knowing.

Since I'm about to finish EF and the EF relasionship chart I figured id keep my tradition alive and get started on a weekly one for Kimi-Kiss. So here it is. Keep in mind that this chart will change as new episodes come out so if this week I have one person marked as "is unsure how they feel" it may change next week to "is in love"...etc

Watching episode 12 again thanks to the subs, and it truly is the best episode to date. Each scene plays out like magic, with that lovely music score helping out. Gah i wish a soundtrack release would hurry up and appear. Saying that a bonus CD came with the first volume --- would anyone know what this is? Drama CD, or perhaps one that'll hold some music from the series?

Yuumi: It's rather lovely seeing Yuumi warm upto Kouichi like that, though at the same time you can't help but think her only reason for so doing is the fact that she's leaving in two months.

Eriko: This'll be the first time she's ever had this feeling --- love. It's quite adorable if you ask me, and i can't wait to see how those feelings will grow as episodes pass.

Asuka: Wow wow wow, talk about lovely. The bike scene was absolutely lovely --- just seeing her smile made by Christmas. I very much like how Kazuki's fortune mention about taking shelter from the rain, and her blush rolled into one. I've mentioned a number of times how powerful the ending of each episode can be in this series --- here's another example right here.

I'm really wondering how this show it going to end! I mean, it already has a lot of twists and they're still coming!

I'd say: Go Yuumi, you can do it! Stick to Ko(u xD)ichi, cause I really want it to be Yuumi x Koichi and Mao x Kai! I already noticed that Hiiragi seems to like Mitsuki and it could be really funny, those two. That dog... Never mind that. Mao, you have to like Kai, or else... I'm going to be sad, it's my favourite couple! The scenes between Kazuki and Asuka were just too cute, I already wondered when she'd get a crush on him. I guess Futami actually starts to Kazuki for real now.

Hehe, I thought I was the only one to see the lesbian connection there.

Top drawer episode. Kimi-kiss is really impressing me as of late.

I was genuinely happy when Eriko started smiling again. Before Episode 11 I thought Eriko was a complete and utter stuck up dullard. Now I think she's fantastic; strange what a few scenes will do to a character in my estimations.

Similarly I thought Aihara was kind of just a diversion for Sanada, providing little more than a different sub-story to keep things fluid and dynamic. How wrong was I. The Aihara side of things is turning in to a very nice arc from my point of view. Who doesn't like a good love triangle? The only problem is, I like all the bloody character's in the triangle!

Yuumi getting closer to Sanada really made me a happy chappy but... it just seems like it'll end in tears. I don't think the preview bodes well for our beloved Yuumi.

Seems to be a good dose of healthy plot twists and character relationship advancement going on. Very fresh and enjoyable to watch.

Wow. I loved the blank stare on Aihara's face at the end. Gave me a little chuckle. Now Aihara has two girls after him... That bastard. It's alright, they will both fall for Kouichi eventually. =D

Go Yuumi! Take that Mao.

I really loved how she took the initiative. My only problem is that Koichi is not doing the same.

As for the other situation, its getting me very excited. I've been waiting for Sakino to become the third wheel.

Aww i liked it. Loved all the Yuumi Kouichi stuff, especially the ending up with two umbrellas but sharing anyway, plus the arm/hand holding :)

Also impressed by Kai's watchful watches, can see he suspects that Mao is into Kouichi.

Half way through the series i'm hoping for:
Kouichi - Yuumi (no Mao.)
Kazuki - .. Don't really care, I prefer Aihara as a character, but at the same time he's all into Futami and it not ending them two will be all messy seeing as she now appears to love him back. So either! :D
Mao - Preferably noone? I love Kai's character, but don't want to see twelve more episodes of her messing him around trying to figure out if she's in love with Kouichi or just upset he's not dependant on her.


But loving this series! Liked the first.. four episodes? Got angry around five, but can't help but love it now.

Well there are officially two love triangles now. I would've preferred if the relationships remained simple and every male lead had their own female lead, but it seems like that isn't going to happen anymore.

I don't really care who Aihara ends up with, but as long as Yuumi x Koichi wins in the end, I will be extremely satisfied.

Mao is so completely using Kai to try and get Koichi jealous/make herself forget about him. And this show is so goddamn engaging for it.

Athlete girl...don't feel it as much from her. Too bad.

Eriko is slowly gaining Kazuki's vulnerability, and Kazuki is gaining some of Eriko's confidence.

Is Yuumi more worried about the date on her calendar? Or did she catch on Mao's behavior around Koichi? Or is it both?

Film guy is a lot sharper than he looks. I think he's going to play the stable guy when/if shit hits the fan. Why do I have a feeling his finished movie is gonna get pretty close to the knuckle, and why do I think the frogs are foreshadowing something I'm not getting?

Seriously. J.C. Staff. Good fucking job so far.

DAYUM now there are two love triangles. Really very interested in Asuka's character, and I am really glad she is now part of the picture too. I really hope that this anime can head into a direction I like. So far, Kimikiss has been impressive as of late, developing from a seemingly lifeless to vibrant anime over the time. Plus, it is just impossible to dislike any of the girls in this anime (seriously, in my opinion). Each of them have their unique characteristics, plus how they sometimes contrast with each other (especially in the case of Eriko and Asuka, they are practically foils to each other) makes Kimikiss all the better.

Is it just me or Hiiragi is intriguing me? He might just be the true man by the end, before we realise it. Especially with the Doberman LEL.

Im surprised soccer chick has fallen in love with red-hair MC. I mean, for her to fall for him on episode 12? thats surprising.

Mao is starting to annoy me with her new found love of Kyoichi. She and Kai have great chemistry.

With all that said, have way through the anime, I still cannot believe that this is a 24 episodes anime. It feels like things might drag in the second half.

I like the umbrella scene with Hoshino x Kouichi and the bike scene with Sakino x Kazuki. That was so sweet!

The warring states of love begin! I did expect Sakino to join the war eventually. It was only a matter of time now that Kazuki had acquired inspiration and confidence. The only one with much to lose so far is Kai since he has no other love interest if Mao ends up with Kouichi. I feel bad for him if that happens. He's just a loner dude minding his own business, and then Mao came to rock his world, and now that he's attached to her, Mao's feelings for Kouichi suddenly sprout.
