I just find it very off the way he is insinuating himself into her life and the lives of her family and friends on the basis, apparently, of her having helped him one time.

Exactly the way she did to him (and Takeo and I'm guessing a lot of people in her life cause that's the kind of person she seems like)? The only difference is the how, he's laid back and kind of just plotting things out, contrasting her straight forward forceful mother hen deal.

Takeo loses a contest of strength and becomes unworthy of Yamato's love, spurning her advances.

I think a lot of wikis have that by default, I know I've seen that on other series' wikis.

I stand by my prediction that Takeo loses his metabolism and becomes an obese and successful sumo wrestler. Suna is his manager and Yamato opens a chain of bakeries specialising in savoury cakes and pastries shaped like muscular anatomy.

I think that Flex Confections will do big business. If it works for the Macho Cafe it'll work for her. I wonder what the Japanese pun name would be?

I just watched the new episode introducing Oda.

Thoughts on Oda: Wow, what a fucker. That talk at night with Takeo was sympathetic but the very next morning, he demonstrates his horrible jerk status.

Volume 5 is really good guys. I cheated and skimmed ahead, but I'm pretty excited to see it animated. Volume 5 will be out in two weeks if you can't resist like me.

EDIT: Also yeah, Yamato's parents have shown up. I don't think the anime will reach that point though just because there's a fairly lengthy arc before that, which I also doubt the anime will cover.

Is the anime gonna end early :ohdear:

If there's one thing Clawshrimpy has taught us, it's that trying to help people better themselves and move on from trauma is worse than genocide.

I'm not sure that's the greatest way to get her to find "closure" but sure whatever.

You realise that if this results in breaking up Yamato and Takeo then this would literally ruin Ai's life forever, right? It's also questionable the degree to which Ai wants this 'closure', instead of just quietly and slowly getting over her crush.

New guy's way too pushy, but that could end up being a good thing, Takeo and Yamato still hold back what they're really thinking a lot.

I think they're first years, so 15/16. Ai is just a first year college student though right? So she'd be 18/19? Not the creepiest difference ever, she's probably been crushing on him for years.

She specifically said she was waiting for him to graduate high school before pouncing on him so the age thing wouldnt be as wierd.

Hey, be fair - if Yamato hears her confessing to Takeo, there's decently high odds on an Anime Misunderstanding that'll make Ai feel really bad for the thirty seconds until Makoto fixes it.

When Oda said "separate" he meant physically, come on.

which is admittedly a difficult task as well

Oda's an okay guy, we're just so used to seeing paragons of humanity that a normal guy seems awful. Suna needs to learn to read the mood though. Of course, my favorite running gag this episode was Suna having a non caring, zoned out face the whole episode, even when he interrupts Yamato and Takeo at the end. I guess the guy just doesn't really care about MM land.
