Wow... fail -_-Originally Posted by RyougaZell
Sorry for yet another late post, been caught up in more things than I'd like...
Anyway and that's not normal? That's part of what I like about the show that a lot of things feel real. But for me it also has a different meaning in that since she interrupted it before hand it also means that things are unsaid. This is just my theory but to her if some things are said outloud then it'll probably change things between them, which is why she stopped it before that. Not only because of that but I really do think she doesn't want to lie to him so if he does confess his feelings than it gets kinda harder to reject him. Which also goes hand in hand with the rejection not being clean, like I said if you're not going to lie no matter what and not going to give him the whole truth what would you give him for excuse? If you can come up with something that'd make the rejection clean then my only words are wow.
But to her that excuse makes a lot more sense because if she didn't fall for Ryuuji in her mind then Taiga wouldn't get hurt, so in a way she feels that she's the cause of it.
Ohh and to whoever negrept me for incoherent sentences or whatever it said, don't quite remember. Feel free to actually point out what was incoherent, because honestly I'm not sure what you mean.

You are here alone again
In your sweet insanity
All too calm, you hide yourself from reality
Do you call it solitude? Do you call it liberty?
When all the world turns away to leave you lonely
Kind of a slow episode compared to the last one but enjoyable nonetheless
It looked like Ryu was considering Taiga for a while but in the end he was sounding more like a parent again than a lover
Ami is taking way too long to make her move, it's getting really annoying.
indeed
Ami was really annoying in this episode.
She doesn't move a finger and is complaining like a slut
That's not the Ami I used to know
I can't think of a possibility to include her in the ending if they don't show a bit more action with her in the next epsiode.
She is way too passive and people will simply forget about her..
hmm how to explain..It's just like I want to see some kind of sad ending with her, you know like in Kimikiss and that soccer-girl
Yasuko is still the best female in this show.
Tits >>> Personality
Nothing beats the annoyance that Kushieda is. GODAMMIT, what the hell is she talking about ghosts?!? Everything that comes out of her mouth is pure crap.
The fact that Ami took her ghost-bullshit serious for a few seconds wasnt great, either.
Aaand Ryuuji being passive sucks. If he had just hugged Taiga once she was in front of his door, everything could have been resolved. "Taiga,....i love you" - "Ryuuji...." - "Letīs have dinner together, everyday from now on" - "What are you talking about, stupid do-" - *kisses her*
Though, of course, a series-ending with Ryuuji-Ami-couple would be 100 times better.

honestly, Kushieda is such an annoyance. plus, Ryuuji can't even go to a restuarant without meeting her. it can really get irritating that she doesn't have a fixed work place.
before the OP, I was really worried that the entire episode is going to be a 'what if Taiga was actually dead\never existed' episode that's going to make ryuuji figure out how much he cares for her and how she changed his life. luckily, it wasn't.
Ryuuji is really being a passive pussy about this thing. he could have at least tried to make real contact with Taiga (it's not hard to find someone, even if they don't have a cellphone battery), and the part with taiga being away was completely unnecessary, so was the entire bit with Ryuuji going\not-going to collage and his mom getting a minimum wage work (unlike her job as a hostess, which pays rather good, and fits her schedule and personality much better than being a store helper), we ditched the school angle of the story 20 episodes ago, why go back to it now?
Ami is still my favorite, she was willing to give Minorin a chance to explain herself, but got totally mad when Minorin treated her like one of the stupid classmates. and she's quite right to resent Ryuuji for being such an idiot, not to mention that it's probably the only way for her to get over him.

Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.
You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.
Anyone cared to analyse why Ami loves that place beetween vending machines so much?
Because they are alike in a way?
Should it be ecchi, or hentai, I'd go as far as slot machine, but no, I like that character so I'll stop now.
Why is Ryuuji so unaware, well he's a teenager so he doesn't know himself that much, and others -even more if they're girls- it's even worse.
Should he just try to play a little, some girls would fall for him and he could start and understand how it works to be in a relationship/flirt and move forward. But I guess he's "likable" only thanks to Taiga.
After all, no one mentions his looks anymore, he's got girls around playing/talking with/to him. All of this happened only because he's with Taiga, at least that's what I think.
So in the end this glowing effect is just that, and doesn't help him muster the courage to really go for a girl.
Minorin's case:
Minorin is a coward or anything you want, but Ryuuji never really proposed, he stopped before telling anything. It wasn't Minorin's fault, should he be more determined, he'd have found a way to corner her and tell her.
She's running away because she knows she won't be able to resist if Ryuuji really proposes her. She's also running away because Ryuuji's resolve isn't strong enough and she fears Ryuuji doesn't like her enough. After all, should she accept, she needs to be deeply in love with him, and he should be the same to her so that she doesn't regret taking Ryuuji from Taiga.
I guess that should it end with a couple, that would be Ryuuji/Taiga because they insisted on it and because their relationship is the richest/most advanced.
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
MFauli: Wait what you really didn't get why she talked about ghosts? Well obviously Ami doesn't have a clue on why she went on about ghosts but we should. Incase you forgot that's what she talked about with Ryuuji at Amis villa.
boo: Uhhh so it's her fault for having a part time job at a place that Ryuuji happens to visit even though neither knew the other would be there? Besides might remember this part wrong but didn't they stated early on that she hops around jobs a lot.
Wait Ami gave Minorin a chance to explain herself? I don't see how she gave her any chance at that whatsoever. If she really wanted to give her that chance then first of all she wouldn't have brought up all the stuff infront of the other girls just an ep ago that was a poor choice. Secondly we know that Minorin uses ghosts and stuff like that as an analogy and has been using for quite some time, how exactly is that treating Ami as an stupid classmate? Minorin was at least trying to tell her something in all seriousness and Ami is the one that walked away. That's hardly what I'd call giving someone a chance to explain something.
Thinking back on it if Ami had talked to Minorin in a normal way without the rest of the girls there and asked about it there would probably have been more of a chance she would have answered instead of getting mad at her. After all Minorin hasn't been hostile against Ami not to mention Minorins gotten several advices from Ami so it's not exactly unthinkable that she'd tell her the truth. But then there'd be no chick fights and drama.
Edit: Ohh and to the new negrep, that doesn't tell me one bit about what in the other post was incoherent. Since that was what I was asking about not what was incoherent in that last post. And so "Anyway and that's not normal?" isn't a sentence? Thought it was a question my bad.

of course, i remembered that. Itīs still beyond stupid, because a) Ami doesnt know what Kushiedaīs talking about at all, b) itīs stupid ghosts! I mean, it was stupid back then when she brought that topic up before Ryuuji, you know.
Uhh...how many times do we need to go over this? Every single time he attempts to confess to her, she cuts him off intentionally and then refuses to allow him to continue. The one time he was absolutely determined to confess to her, Minorin basically said, "Shut up! [something random]. I'm leaving before you can try again." How exactly is this not her fault? He wasn't allowed to say a word because if he began speaking again, she'd already be halfway down the street!
Ryuuji didn't stop. Kushieda cut him off.
You can not defend her actions during that scene. She's a stupid bitch who wants it both ways. Kushieda knows exactly how much Ryuuji likes her, but she won't allow him to say it because she's deluded into thinking that as long as she doesn't let him confess that they can still be friends. Ami keeps trying to tell everyone (mostly Ryuuji) that you can't have it both ways, and Taiga knows it too, which is why she's been trying to separate herself from Ryuuji. Kushieda is the only one who doesn't get this.
Kushieda is trying to still be friends with everyone, but the way she's going about it won't allow for anyone to resolve anything.
I hated her even more after this episode. She's trying the same shit with Ami now, trying to make peace and be friends as if nothing ever happened. Things like what happened between the two of them on the ski trip are incidents that can never be unsaid.
BTW, Yasuko is the greatest bimbo-mother ever. She cares a lot for him, and has an endless faith in her offspring.

I like how Minorin goes from saying "I'll come and save you whenever youre in trouble" to grabbing her hand and yelling at her in a matter of two minutes.
This was scary, I expected someone to die right there or something, lol.. really.
Minorin had such a scary face.
not to mention the tentacle hair scene.
time for another nice boat ending!
I say the weapon is a baseball bat.

The animation kind of sucked in this episode. Everyone was a lot more angular and more slender than usual.
Ami's a coward too...and that makes me sad.
well, at least Ami is consistent with what she's doing. she wants to make things happen, even if it means she won't be getting Takasu.
she's completely mirroring Minorin in her actions, but without being two faced about it.
Minorin, of course, is a loose cannon. sure, when she hid the truth and avoided people whenever she didn't like the situation, it was good and fine, but now, when someone doesn't want to talk about something right now and right here, now that warrants a violent response.
she's a complete bitch.
last thing, is anemia such a big deal in japan? whatever anime I watch, there's always someone who faints due to anemia or catching a cold. I know it's for dramatic effects, but still, it happens too many times for it to be just that.
