How have I never read this manga? This first episode was great! Takeo is the most adorable shoujo protagonist I think I have ever seen. :allears:

That was perfect :allears:

All it took to convince my friend to watch this was the scene of Takeo merrily skipping down the hall to talk to the girl he liked.

This so much. And maybe it's just me but Yamato looks a bit like the daughter of Chihaya and Sumire.

Suna is Taichi, but I don't think he's good at sports.

Well, at least Yamato acts pretty differently from either of those. Suna on the other hand....

Yeah, she doesn't act like either of them. Was he Taichi in the manga too? I haven't read it.

I guess that was just a bad PV re: Yamato's voice because it was fine here. Show is going to own.

Poor Takeo is blinded by his misunderstanding that he's the sidekick :ohdear:

e: I was sorta hoping Suna rejected all those girls because he was actually gay.

He clearly is...The girls said he only laughs when hes with someone he likes and he laughs at Takeo alot. Coincidence? I think not.

They play the same type and sort of act the same way, but remember that deep down Taichi is a rotten person who would steal his opponent's glasses in order to win a card game, and that his cool exterior is a facade hiding a crippling lack of self esteem. What is Suna like, other than cool? Watch and find out! Actually, he's even cooler than he appears.

Is this going to turn into some odd Japanese version of Cyrano de Bergerac? Or is there going to be some weird all directions love triangle? Just want to know so I can brace myself for the comedy beats.

Do you really want to know? Because it should be answered next week. God I can't wait for next week. But if you really want me to:

There is no love triangle.

The manga manages to sidestep most of the usual shoujo drama beats in favour of the characters being generally awesome.
