Episode 14

Everyone's Reactions

Ito-chan finally told Minamoto-kun, "I like you," but he immediately shot back, "Huh? I know that!" leaving her confession feeling totally pointless and making us viewers go, "Ugh!" On top of that, both of them are running on little sleep, sporting those fearless grins. Watching them bicker constantly while their feelings for each other seem to be deteriorating makes me a bit worried. It’s kind of poignant seeing glimpses of their family dynamics, especially since Azusa-sensei is covering all the travel expenses, yet Ito-chan just can’t quite break away. When Riku-kun snapped at her, it felt like we were peeking into their home life. During the Ferris wheel ride, when he asked if she could handle thrill rides, she retorted with a sharp "Are you serious?!" and completely KO’d him—I wanted to yell along with Minamoto-kun! Ito-chan has been sleeping until noon all spring break, looking like her first love is over, but I’m curious to see how she bounces back.
