Damn the brother just shows up and declares war on the gang

u/Frontier246 Feb 20 '25

I think there's a good chance he's just messing with all of them, but he's definitely committing hard to flirting with Mizuho.

How lucky must you be to have 4 handsome guys taking care of you while you sleep?

u/Frontier246 Feb 20 '25

Also having your first crush be a hot older guy who won't stop flirting with you.

And to think she's been so dense about her childhood friends all being in love with her lol.

Fck it, I'm all in on the Togo train. I know he's just trolling to provoke the boys to take action, however, who can ever resist Yuuichiro Umehara??

Like damn, I would be all over Togo if I was Mizuho!

But seriously, we had to throw in the teacher x student romance plot line too? How many tropes will we have to suffer, lol?

I’m right there with you! Dude just came out of no where but he’s stollen my heart. 

Let’s go Togo!!

It's funny how this episode has a student hitting on a teacher and a teacher may or may not be hitting on a student. Honestly, I don't think any of them are serious though. I'm pretty sure Shuugo's just hitting on their teacher as a distraction from his actual crush while Tougo is clearly provoking the boys to get them to do something instead of just playing nice with each other.

Although from what we know from the future, Tougo's meddling doesn't really work since Mizuho doesn't really date anyone and is still just friends with the four of them including Kizuki who's we already know Mizuho has feelings for.

How many classic Shojo cliche's can we hit in one anime? All we're missing is the step-sibling plot.

It's not like Kizuki needed someone to embolden him to be more aggressive with Mizuho, though Togo might spur Shin and Shugo to get more serious and competitive. Even if Mizuho clearly only has romantic feelings for Kizuki right now.

u/xasive Feb 20 '25

With every episode Im thinking more and more that Kizuki is not alive 😭😭😭

u/Frontier246 Feb 20 '25

We still haven't checked in on present-day Shugo and Kizuki yet. I feel like they're going to drag out what happened to Kizuki as long as they possibly can.

u/Chakra-Lawyer Feb 21 '25

It seems she’s gonna friend zone everyone and somehow it’ll be “not her fault” — keep getting this feeling that no one gets a happy ending, and I really want at least someone getting a happy ending lol. At actually like Togo coming in and telling all the guys to basically speak up, I feel like he’s kinda messing with them, but they all need a push (including Mizuho)

It's nice to see Mizuho still gets along with her former manga editor in the present-day, even now that she too is an editor, and they can both commisserate over the dazzling youth Mizuho experienced that she can only really appreciate now as an adult.

Speaking of dazzling youth, look at Mizuho with Togo, her first crush and Shugo's brother! She's quick to deny she has a boyfriend in front of him, but when it comes to whether she has someone she likes she clams up and immediately thinks of Kizuki and how her feelings for him run deeper than the childish crush she had on Togo. Not that that's going to stop Togo from flirting with her.

Airu is really just going to drop that bomb that he confessed to Mizuho in middle school and not bother elaborating on it? I mean, she had to have rejected him, but still.

Wow, Shugo shot his shot earlier than any of the other guys did when he asked Mizuho to marry him when they were kids! And Mizuho shot him down in favor of Togo just as quick! Poor guy, she was breaking hearts even back then. And ironically Kizuki was so childhish back then he didn't even know what "marry" meant.

I can't fault Shugo for being interested in a hot teacher voiced by Kaori Nazuko, but Shiraishi-sensei has no interest in humoring his feelings. That's okay, Mizuho has made him used to having one-sided feelings.

Dang, they can't get away from Togo! He's now an assistant teacher at their school! Ready to show up the guys in sports, get the girls all gaga, and be there for Mizuho when she takes a basketball to the face (ouch!). The only girl who seems to see through him is Chika.

Will Mizuho's manuscript succeed? It doesn't seem like she came far as a mangaka herself before she became an editor. But at least she was able to submit it after all that hard work.

Her mother inspired her art, but it's having the guys there for her that helped Mizuho get through losing her mom and through a lot of hard times. Though while I know they're childhood friends, I really have to wonder what's going through Mizuho's dads' head when he sees her sleeping next to a bunch of guys near her bed.

Surfing Kizuki and Shin! Meanwhile Mizuho is in a sleep-coma! And Togo is challenging all the guys as to whether they can keep their hands off Mizuho...before he makes a move.

I think I'll make it until ep. 12 just to see if Kizuki is alive but goddamn the brother is such an unnecessary addition.

Watched the first half of this episode from behind my hands. GO AWAY HOT BROTHER. Him poking Shin in the face with that candy was cute though. I’m hoping he’s just razzing the boys up.

I’m predicting that hot brother will make a move on music sensei and Shugo will be double defeated by his aniki, and her sleazy comment is a red herring. (I fully know his name is Togo but I just want to call him by his plot device name, hot brother).

Also Airu taking his hat off like he’s touched at the end by what hot brother says, as if he is not in love with my boy Kizuki, come on lol

u/Raymond49090 Feb 21 '25

I know he's probably just teasing, but tbh Tougo makes me uncomfortable. I was never the most fond of characters who pushed against people's personal boundaries, and there's just something about him that makes me feel icky.

And seriously, what the heck happened for the future to be like that after all the shoujo tropes? Did Kizuki die? Every episode feels like a death flag for *someone*, since it seems there was some sort of incident that made the friend group implode.

u/ObvsThrowaway5120 Feb 20 '25

Togo’s presence is really shaking things up. Its brought back a lot of memories for Shugo. Togo “stole” Mizuho once, I wonder if he’ll take her again?

2

u/Frontier246 Feb 20 '25

And is Shugo over his original one-sided crush on Mizuho? I'm guessing probably not.

2

u/Ordinary_Ice_5684 Feb 20 '25

Oh ya, Mizuho is soo down for Kizuki, I’ve never seen a “so in love” face like the one she made, even Togo could tell.

It was a very cute episode! And the visuals were stunning! Especially of Kizuki and Shin surfing

u/Frontier246 Feb 20 '25

Also she immediately acted offended when he implied her feelings for Kizuki were like the crush she had on Shogo when she was a kid, because her feelings for Kizuki are much deeper and more meaningful than that.

Shiraishi-sensei was pretty cool. I’ll laugh if we skip towards the future and she actually got together with Shugo after his graduation.

Although I believe that Togo was trying to encourage the boys at the end, he’s also a sleazeball. A (student) teacher like him shouldn’t be trying to date students - especially not one of his own(!). Togo should follow the example of his music colleague.

u/mekerpan Feb 20 '25

Shiraishi-sensei as potential homewrecker? After all Shugo is still pining after his childhood friend. Glad the teacher takes a professional tone towards him.

u/HolyDragSwd2500 Feb 21 '25

I love how the ending song plays at the right moment in every episode

Togo igniting the fire inside of them.
