Irie deals with his growing feelings of jealousy as he watches Keita with Kotoko.




























Impressions:
I thought this episode was great. It was one of my favorite episodes so far because it really dealt with some real heavy and powerful emotions. It wasn’t about just chasing after the guy or anything like that, like the previous episodes, yet it was focus on the emotions of a character who never shows his emotions. It was pretty big and I thought the conclusion the episode eventually came to was great. It’s good to see him open up or at least be able to admit that he has those feelings.
I’m really rather unsure of what this show is going to bring in the future episodes. This episode pretty much concluded the whole jealousy bit. They’ve already dealt with Kotoko getting Irie, and now they’ve dealt with the problem of him being too old towards Kotoko and even though in the general bit about him feeling jealousy for the first time, making him more human. Beyond that, I’m not sure what else this series will have. Conflict is needed for good content but it seems at this point that any content that would be able to fit in this series would be taking something back that they’ve already dealt with in a previous episode or several of them. However they still have a TON of time left to cover if this series does cover ten years. Whether or not this anime will, the manga did/will/does so there has to be something that happens, I’m just not sure what or if we’ll see it in the anime.




Would almost think we’re in time for another time skip. Could move forward some years to career troubles and maybe even a child. Life has a habit of dealing you some tough blows so I’m sure something else for conflict can come up.
Was a really good episode though in dealing with all those heavy emotions.
i don;t think there will be another conflict… well i read the manga… there won;t be any thing big now… just a smooth story till the end…
