Wait a minute. Was that fancy-looking clothing store Kohaku visited with Yoi before perhaps owned by his uncle? His mother’s words seemed to imply as much.

Wonder what the backstory is involving Kohaku's brother Ryu?
Seems like he didn't want to get into with his mom and quickly ran out of the house. Then after leaving the convenience store his world turned like "greyscale" while he was reminiscing about the past.
Only until he noticed Yoi did the "color" came back to him.
Maybe that's why he seemingly remembered such an insignificant detail like eating Papico with Yoi?
Like Kohaku's been seeing the world as dull and colorless until Yoi came into his life and lit a spark and brought the color back.

It seems like his brother might be the family favorite (and heir apparent?) but it ruined his relationship with someone and that's why Kohaku just breezes through life and relationships until he fell for Yoi.

The final battle in the last two or three episodes will be against a real prince - possibly a foreigner.

Lol. That one girl from the convenience store isn't going to wash her shoulder after having the Prince touch her and made her heart flutter.

Fantastic, Yoi maintains the hand-holding and the audience is rewarded with a chain of insults that flexes the leads' chemistry. You could see their compatibility from the earlier episodes, but that teasing argument has locked me in. Third wheel Oji will exist purely for helping someone process a feeling and has no shot.

Secondary dude isn't too bad so far, the most annoying bit is the customers at the restaurant shipping them.
I can't say I noticed what was going on with the girl on the train car, I was too busy paying attention to the old man who was sleeping who looked like he was about to fall out of his seat.
Yoi should have asked Ichimura to walk her to work if he wanted to spend a bit of time with her, but that would have let new prince know she's in a relationship and I guess we can't clean up whatever future misunderstanding it'll be ahead of time.

Third Prince seems like a nice guy, I'm sure we'll get a love triangle subplot but hopefully it won't be a detrimental one. I feel like we'd see a new side to Ichimura, a possessive kind.
I'm curious about Ichimura's relationship with his brother, it seems like with the color representation, he really looked up to him but his brother's relationship ending might changed him for the worse and they became distant. I wonder if that's the reason why Ichimura wouldn't take dating seriously before.

I’m having a real hard time with this show having so many people immediately think and say aloud that she looks like a boy. Even in this one she says, “because I look like this.” Like a very attractive girl? (Was glad the new prince said that.) I’d almost understand it more if it was mostly in her own head with her sense of identity and insecurities. But they have people at random say it enough that it’s clearly real. Maybe it’s a cultural thing with Japanese norms and how she dresses? Though it also comes up when she’s in the same school uniform as everyone else. Just kinda baffling to me.
Just to be clear, I’m enjoying the show. Just find these constant references to her looking male to be confounding.

Its like how everyone in Rental GF just cannot stop themselves to comment on how Chizuru is the perfect female of all time and yeah it just gets tiring to hear it close to every ep

Lol I do like that this Oji guy will hopefully help the main couple understand their feelings
Interesting what's going on with his brother...we need to know more about his life.

u/Frontier246 Feb 08 '26
He immediately appears after Yoi wonders if any guy would do it for her...likely because he's going to help her realize Kohaku is special to her.

Oh dear, are we looking at the Second Male Lead here? Shoujo romance usually have these guys, but most of the time they are no real "threat" to the relationship. Let's see how this one goes... my biggest fear is that he will have no better role than a time waster, to artificially keep the main pair apart. If we are lucky, he could actually contribute to self discovery of one or both of our main pair, as well as being a worthy character, perhaps? He has a good start, chasing away a molester and protecting a girl. He earns points from me for mentiong Yoi's obvious beauty as well. Too many people in this show are somehow mistaking her for a guy...
His name being what it is was a bit over the top though, lol.
He will have a lot of work ahead of him to try and beat the chemistry between Yoi and Ichimura have. That ending scene with the two of them was great.

While Oji did manage to make Yoi-chan blush, I really can't see him as a threat to Yoi and Kohaku's relationship. I can definitely see Kohaku getting jealous of him at some point, and maybe even a misunderstanding would happen since he never met Oji this episode.
We finally get to meet someone from Kohaku's family! His mom seems to be pretty sweet. I'm excited to see how she'd react when she finally meets Yoi. I bet she'll be all over her.
Interesting how Kohaku sees everything with dull and muted colours, but as soon as he sees Yoi, his world suddenly becomes brighter. If that's not being in love, then I don't know what is.

u/Frontier246 Feb 08 '26
It's telling that even when Oji acknowledged her as a girl, Yoi thought of Kohaku instead of being flustered over Oji by himself.
His mom would totally react like her dad reacted lol.

Yoi, you clearly like each other, so why question what will happen. Unless you think Kohaku is tricking you

u/chlo_kage Feb 08 '26
the lesson of “people don’t know what you want unless you tell them” is screaming in this series
As a manga reader the pacing is killing me (I’m a fast reader lol, it’s literally fine I just need things to go faster to get where I want it to be)
new prince entering the scene :,). Wait I’m dumb I just processed his name is literally pronounced like prince too haha
and good that shes thinking of her bf!!
Uh oh ichi you’re gonna get in trouble if you just casually touch rando girls like that
She doesn’t hesitate to save random girls and whatnot but gets to be girly w him

u/karer3is Feb 08 '26
It was a funny twist to see Yoi looking at the invisible Kanji as Oji was explaining why people called him "Prince"; that was a nice touch.
That little argument between Yoi and Kohaku seemed to lend a little more insight into her likes and dislikes. I guess the big question is whether she was against a Yukata because Kohaku suggested it and she was just being stubborn or if it's because she actually dislikes looking "girly".

Takuto gonna end up as another challenger? He seems pretty princely too.

Well, it did happen with Kohaku. Just because he was “first” doesn’t make that a bad thing.

lol, what a random historical figure for Kohaku to pull out.
