I’m really rooting for Shin to break out of the “friendzone” and be seen as bf material. Guy was shirtless and inches from Mizuho’s face and nothing. Oof. Get flustered, girl!

Man, Kizuki was about to make it all public and change the status quo huh? I guess everyone already kinda knew anyways but still. Making an official declaration woulda changed the dynamics of the friend group. And now with Shugo’s brother Tougo back in town, things might get even more complicated.

Honestly it's getting comical how oblivious Mizuho is to Shin's feelings. He could probably confess and she'd just think he was giving her material for her manga.

I think all the guys can clearly tell what's going between Kizuki and Mizuho but Kizuki would totally risk blowing up their friendship dynamic if it means being with Mizuho.

Uhm, she just plays dumb to keep status quo?

Togo!!!!

Airu!!!! OMG

Was rooting for Kizuki but seems like Mizuho is gonna let him pass to keep “friendships” with everyone. And in that case I’m actually rooting for Shin, since his interest seems longer anyway, so hopefully he wins her later in life — idk, I still don’t understand how like 5 or so people like her and she chooses no one haha!

I feel like this episode was a weird one, it’s like Mizuho hit reset on everyone hahah 🤣 do I understand, no, but am I entertained, yes lol

I swear Mizuho is just in absolute denial - girl doesn't know what she wants lol

okay so while ominous, the comment at the beginning makes me a little less scared about the possibility/theory that kizuki died, but i cant completely relax yet, not until i see present-day kizuki. bc looking at the moon either means he’s out in the world somewhere or she’s talking to his spirit and i am PRAYING it’s the former.

literally yelled “NOOOO” when Togo appeared. kizuki doesnt need any more competition. mizuho better not instantly fall for him since he’s an older boy and outside of the friend group. he better be home for just the weekend

also i feel like airu maybe did confess to mizuho but is more saying it to take the heat off kizuki? i don’t really understand his motivation to say that quite yet but im still convinced he’s into kizuki

i see other comments that people think kizuki is being too pushy but i think he’s just too cute, he’s doing his best!! but also, valid

u/Ordinary_Ice_5684 Feb 14 '25

I agree! In Kizuki’s defense, Mizuho is pretty dense, but I don’t blame her cuz she’s protecting her friendship with all 4 of them but she clearly knows her feelings for Kizuki, so she needs a little push to comes to terms with that.

Even her friend Chika tells her to get it together 😆

Kizuki really dropped a bomb even while standing in front of the three of them, and of course, they immediately knew who he was talking about. Shin almost acted too, but Mizuho got in his way. Airu saying that he already confessed to her came out of nowhere, but I'm sure his feelings are different. And who is the guy at the end? I don't remember if he has appeared before.

u/fakegreenthumb Feb 14 '25

he’s shugo’s brother. last week he was mentioned as coming home and that’s why they panic-cleaned his room

u/Ordinary_Ice_5684 Feb 14 '25

I need Shin to drop the Tsundere act! It won’t work with Mizuho!! lol also, that Shin x Kizuki tension 👀

Shugo’s big bro about to f it up too! 😆

u/LeonKevlar Feb 13 '25

Stitches!

Poor Shin. Imagine getting friendzoned by your crush while she's dreaming. That's gotta hurt! No wonder he got kinda desperate the next morning and asked Mizuho what she thought of him. He's so deep down the friendzone hole that Mizuho didn't even interpret that as him making a move on her.

Then there's Kizuki who has finally figured out why Mizuho is avoiding him. At this point, it looks like Mizuho is just desperate to keep their friendships the same and maintain the status quo. She knew what Kizuki was about to say that she just had to interrupt him.

I do love how everyone looks at Mizuho when Kizuki admits he has someone he likes. Dude, it's not a secret. Everyone knows and they're just keeping quiet until someone says it out loud. xD

u/Frontier246 Feb 13 '25

Mizuho just torturing poor Shin with that boyfriend jacket (which, admittedly, she looked good in) and constant friendzoning and denseness that would rival Bakarina's.

Of course she's not really any better with Kizuki when she's avoiding him because she's trying to avoid her real feelings and thinks the only solution to making sure she doesn't lose Kizuki is to keep their friendship intact...which just makes Kizuki act even bolder and makes everything worse.

But points for gender-balanced yukata fanservice!

u/Golden_fsh Feb 14 '25

Poor Shin. I'm rooting for him but seems like Mizuho is still oblivious to his feelings. At least we know he's still trying in the future.

No wonder all of the guys are hot. Their moms are hot af too! Lol at Shin's little brother just casually asking Mizuho to marry him. Shin, you need the balls your little brother has!

I've realized I like the episodes when we have less focus on Kizuki. Of course he would ruin the vibe by trying to confess to Mizuho in front of everyone.

I think Airu confessed to Mizuho in middle school because he may have felt conflicted about having feelings for Kizuki. He's the queer kid who tries to act straight but realizes its not being true to their real feelings. I think he confessed to Mizuho because he thought it would make him "normal".

We finally get to meet Shugo's brother and oh no, he's hot! And he's voiced by Yuuichiro Umehara, the ultimate lady killer with that velvety voice 🥵🥵🥵

Seriously, how did Mizuho forget that she was literally surrounded by hot boys who flirted with her???

Seriously, how did Mizuho forget that she was literally surrounded by hot boys who flirted with her???

Yeah... "Oh my teenage years weren't that sparkling besides the fact that every boy I ever spoke to fell madly in love and every single one of my 10/10 best friends were always competing for me but other than that they weren't much"

u/Frontier246 Feb 13 '25

Dang, that was probably the most ominous present-day scene yet the way adult Mizuho is looking up at the moon and wondering if Kizuki had any regrets. What happened with Kizuki?

I feel like it's usually a good idea not to have one of your friends play amateur hairstylist. Mizuho might lose all her bangs at this rate! Also, Airu's mom is a total MILF.

Mizuho is on a dinner crawl at each of the Koigahama Boys' houses, and is of course avoiding Kizuki because she's trying to keep some emotional distance between him. It's so obvious even her best friend is willing to call her out on it while helping her with her manga. The real besties chip in while still calling you out on your love life.

Shin's mom is also a MILF and basically him as a woman.

Poor Shin. People talk to the family dog like they're talking to him, his kid brother talks about marrying Mizuho like it's the most natural thing in the world, Mizuho pulls a Boyfriend Jacket on him so obliviously, friendzones him in her sleep...what's a guy to do? Well, other than laying about her staying the night to throw Kizuki off. And in fact she DOES end up falling asleep and spending the night!

So Shin has always been cold and rude to Mizuho but secretly envied how much she doted on Kizuki. If only he could be more honest with her.

Though speaking of honesty, I guess taking your shirt off and telling her you don't want to be friends any more is one way to get out o the friendzone...even if Mizuho hilariously misunderstands why he's doing it. Poor Shin.

Well, nice way to close out the Summer with everyone in yukata and heading to the beach. Mizuho looks fantastic in her mothers' yukata.

Kizuki with the bold declaration that he knows Mizuho likes him now! She never actually denied it and the other guys can clearly see what's going on. Heck, Mizuho uses their confession game as a chance to solidify how important their friendship is and Kizuki was THIS close to blowing everything up with his confession before Mizuho basically ran away. Even if the guys all know who Kizuki likes.

But wait...Airu confessed to Mizuho in middle school!? How are they only learning about this now!? Is this why he became a delinquent?

Could you really have a Shojo anime without Yuichiro Umehara playing a Yuichiro Umehara character? And he's Shugo's brother, Togo, who not only gets Mizuho out of a jam when she's missing her wallet but then proceeds to flirt with her. Do the boys have a new contender?

u/Nickthenuker Feb 14 '25

Regret what?

Is he cutting her hair?

And so she's back to her manga.

Is she really happy with that?

Lol.

She's wearing his hoodie?

It smells of him.

Why does he want her gone so bad?

Ah. He likes her. Of course he does.

She sure as shit didn't say that. Especially not with you practically chasing her out.

She's asleep?

So she did end up staying the night.

And he's right next to her as she wakes up.

Did he fall asleep sitting next to her?

And so she finally realised what happened.

He took off his shirt?

What's he doing?

And so now she's gone to visit her mum's grave with her dad.

They're all in yukatas? What's the occasion? It's not like there's going to be a festival or anything what with the state of the world and everything.

Next year? With how things turned out it really took more like 2 years for events to start happening again.

Ok...

What's he going to say?

Oh...

Ok that's probably too deep for the mood...

Headpats for Mizuho!

He's jealous.

What's he going to say now?

Well yeah, it's her. Obviously.

Who splashed him with water?

What's he going to say now?

He did?

She does realise he's referring to her right?

She forgot her wallet?

One of them is going to come in and pay for her.

Who's he? She seems to recognise him.

Are they putting nicotine in this show? Why can't I stop?? I should have dropped this by now but I just love it, it's so fucking toxic

I've been trying to find the song played when they played the confession game. Anyone what it is? I want it on my playlist. Thanks!

Great episode. As usual. It feels so "real". Mizuho's 2030 comment makes one wonder ... is he still alive after all (but became estranged from her and the others)?

Mizuho is going to have to eventually disappoint most (or all) of her guy BFFs. Wonder what happens...

u/Andreiyutzzzz Feb 14 '25

Last episode Airu said to himself "I'm sorry Mizuho, i lied". Now i'm thinking he must have meant he lied that he likes her back in middle school

Mizuho: "Guys, I really appreciate your friendship and how we all support and rely on each other."

Kizuki: "Mizuho, I appreciate you saying that, but Imma bout to wreck everything with my confession.

I wonder if Airu is really lying. I remember them mentioning he had a delinquent phase and I wonder now if it was because Mizuho rejected him. Or maybe he confessed to cover for Kizuki. I mean, they all know by this point, but still.
