----------------------------------------
Kurumi continues to talk over Sawako to talk to Ryuu. She tells her that she will see what she didn't see about him. Ryuu is the same as Kazehaya since he saved her. Kurumi asked her what does she think about Ryuu, Sawako said he's a nice person.
The whistle rang and Sawako told Kurumi the game is beginning. Kurumi got pissed at her for not listening to what she said. Sawako said she does listen. Sawako knows that she wanted to see Kazehaya playing, and it's very kind of Sawako to remind her. She, then, said she wanted to see him playing baseball because she heard that he did it during junior high school years. She wanted to see the Kazehaya she never seen. Kurumi said that's right, Sawako doesn't know anything about Kazehaya. Don't mix with her feelings because she's been liking Kazehaya since junior high school. She's been thinking about him from rainy days, windy days, and even snowy days! She even try to get near him so that he doesn't have girlfriends. Sawako said wow, you've tried your best! Kurumi has been emphasizing the difference between her and Sawako in terms of feelings to Kazehaya. When watching Kazehaya doing baseball, Sawako said but she cannot help but to fall in love with Kazehaya, right? Kurumi said don't say things as if she knows anything.
Sawako is thinking now. Without noticing, she's been looking at and thinking about Kazehaya and cannot stop anymore. She thought it was special. Sawako, telling Kurumi, said that she might not know anything, even if it's Kazehaya or not, she might have the same feelings with other guys. She wants to know more about Kazehaya and her own feelings, so she's going try to talk to Ryuu. She thanked Kurumi. Kurumi, a bit surprised, stood up and said she's going to do her way, then left.
When Kurumi left, Sawako said how about the game? And then she thought, she might not want to watch with her! She thinks that Kurumi thinks of Kazehaya as how very special for her. The feeling Kurumi have is love. Then She began to notice her heartbeat.
Game ended and Kazehaya team won. Sawako is glad. Her friends (Tomo) found her and realized she came to watch. She invited Sawako to watch volleyball game, which is next. Sawako said is that really ok? She said isn't she going to watch for Yoshida and Yano? Sawako shed tear because she's very happy. She's been alone for a long time and not knowing there are many nice people around. Thanks to Kazehaya's help that she knows now. She might understand her feeling after talking to Ryuu. Sawako is watching Ryuu, while Kazehaya is watching Sawako.
Kazehaya asked Ryuu about Sawako, since he was the one who saved her on time. He said, ah, Sadako, no, Sawako huh? Kazehaya said Kuronuma! Ryuu is still not good at remembering her name, but at least he remembers her as black (Kuronuma's "Kuro") He said he likes her normally (like a friend), but he knows that Kazehaya likes her very much. Kazehaya is blushing and said Ryuu is saying her name wrong again. Ryuu said he saved her just because he was accidentally near her. Kazehaya said he knows, but he wished that he was the one who got it.
Kurumi is asking the spiky hair teacher for the schedule for the game. He asked about her name and which class, so she said she will look at it herself. He said he wants to do it. Kurumi shows her innocence and said she doesn't want to use him. He got goosebumps, so he lost to her. She found out that Kazehaya has a job for equipments.
Yano is buying drinks for both her and Yoshida, and she saw Kurumi, so she talks to her and is jealous about her pretty skin. She though Kurumi used any make ups, but no! She begins to talk about how Kurumi knows about Yano's name because of the rumor. Kurumi said it's bad for those people who believes in those rumors. Kurumi denies and said she doesn't believe about the rumor and heard people spreading the rumor, when Yano asked if she did the same as everyone else. Yano said that's right (in sarcastic way), there's no way Kurumi believes in the rumor. Yano said the rumor must be spreaded by one of Kazehaya's fans, who thinks that Sawako was annoying. Plus it's hard to move since there are Yoshida and Yano. She knows that Yoshida's rumor is an exaggerated version of truth, so she is thinking that it's by a person who goes to the same junior high as Kazehaya and Yoshida. She wondered that what she will think if Kazehaya knows about it. Kurumi said she doesn't know, but it's not good to doubt people. Yano said that's right. Yano found a chance to leave. Before that, she asked her Sawako must be really heard to take care. Guys without Kazehaya came and Ryuu discovered a note probably left by Kurumi for Sawako. He's sad because he cannot take a nap.
Kurumi thinks that not easy to take care? It's just out of calculation!
After the game, Sawako brought towels to Yoshida and Yano. They are going to get lunch, while Sawako is doing something. She wants to say thanks to Ryuu for saving her earlier. Yoshida is amazed at Ryuu for doing rare good deeds. Sawako continues to say she wants to confirm something. Even she doesn't know herself. Yano reminded her that don't get confused. She just have to trust on her own feelings. Yoshida doesn't understand it. Yano said Sawako is thinking in her own way, and they have stuff to do, too. (wow, Yano is evil here).
On the way, Sawako met Kurumi, who asked if she met Ryuu yet because she saw him. Then she was shocked at Sawako's face, who was shocked at Kurumi willing to talk to her. She asked if she said anything that make her uncomfortable. Kurumi told Sawako that Ryuu went to the equipment room. Sawako said thank you!
Kurumi said that it's rather tough/painful than difficult to take care of Sawako.
Sawako found Ryuu, who is taking a nap there. He said finally. Then he used the note to cheat because he was trying to remember her name. Sawako said sugoi! He showed the note. Sawako said sugoi, the note is written what she thought. She said thank you to Ryuu for saving her. Ryuu said that ball doesn't have that much of energy to kill her... She gave him the drink. She has nothing to say when Ryuu, who accepted it, drinks it. Ryuu said end? Sawako said actually she wants to talk to him more. Ryuu said what does she want to talk to him about? Sawako cannot think of anything to talk about. lol @ asking him what's love and she thought he didn't understand the question and trying to explain. He understand because he only loves Yoshida. It's a secret between them. (so cute for him when he said that while smiling!) She said they (Yoshida and Ryuu) match together.
Kurumi is waiting for Kazehaya, who is doing his duty as carrying equipment. She offers to help. He was laughing a bit because Sawako would say it's her job. Kurumi is shocked. Kurumi asked Kazehaya about the summer and Kazehaya is shocked at there are still people who says that. He said no, he didn't break up with Sawako. Kurumi said really? Kazehaya then said that Sawako didn't say she loves him. It's not like Sawako likes Kazehaya. Kurumi said that's right, when she asked Sawako if she wants to have a relations. She said really? That hurt Kazehaya. Kurumi told him that Sawako was looking at Ryuu instead of Kazehaya. She won't help looking at a person who saved her. Kurumi told Kazehaya if that's the case, let's wish them well, ok?
Sawako asks Ryuu when he fell in love. He doesn't know when. He said does he has to answer with reason? He fell in love without him noticing. Cannot compare means special? Sawako asks. He wonders. Kurumi lets Kazehaya see Ryuu and Sawako talking happily so that Kazehaya gives up on her! Kurumi said it's true, right? Kazehaya is shocked at them and Kurumi is shocked at his expression.
Kimitodo... More info on DVD. The spin off drama was from the novel (well, it's probably the same as manga/anime, though), and it was aired a bit. There's also uratodo.
I ♥Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!!
This episode was great in revelations about Ryuu and Yoshida stuff. Also good stuff with Yano confronting Kurumi. Kazehaya/Ryuu faces shine more than Sawako's faces were in previous episodes.Kazehaya's face was great here=>
. Tomo was a great friend to Sawako in this episode for inviting Sawako to join her=>
. Kurumi screws a lot in this episode. Even challenges Kazehaya in his feelings towards Sawako. Was it Kurumi who put that note in Ryuu's locker or was it really Sawako, a little confused there? Little screw up when Kazehaya at the end was shocked at Sawako getting along with Ryuu....they did the cone drop good bu Kazehaya's expression could have been a little more shocking here=>
I would think. Probably one of the best Sawako/Kazehaya scene in this episode=> I agree with Tsubasalover that Ryuu's smiles are the best in this episode=>
Is it me or they improved the fingernails of Kurumi/Yano here=>
Yano looks so hot with the hair over one eye.....so nice!
This was a funny scene between Kurumi/Sawako=>
Is it me or someone was spying on Kurumi/Kazehaya here=>
Ok so let's start the Kurumi hate points of her poker faces=>
Zilpzalp said: Wow, that bitch. There is a reason for why I keep saying that women are WAY more dangerous than us men.
You tell me, such deceive...it can men go suicidal.
Zilpzalp said: Although I was pissed for a second, I quickly didn't feel 'endangered' by Kurumisawa, since Sawako has Yano. :3 this way I can calmly enjoy the bitchfight coming up since I know that Sawako will win in the end.
You are not the only one, I am so angry too! Kurumi must pay for Kazehaya's suffering at the end of the episode! Unforgivable for something like that!
Zilpzalp said: And, I can't hide the fact that Yano actually IS beautiful from myself anymore.
Well one of my pics does prove a point about that does it?
Nameless_Hero said: New eyecatch
That is sure nice!
Nameless_Hero said: Stalker
+1 point to hate Kurumi....she is a stalker! D:
Nameless_Hero said: lol at Pin's reaction to her "sweet girl act"
V
lol z was so funny! Pin gets from +1 point for reacting properly to a poker face. That was the best of Pin's reactions! Loved it!
Every story needs a good bady... someone the audience can really despise. Boo! Hiss! Pantomime and Kimi ni Todoke illustrate this beautifully. The real Kurumi is the epitome of this character type. You can understand why she is the way she is, but you still want to stroll up to her and yell at her (or worse). It makes me want to cheer even more for the heroes!

Well, that expression gave me some "calm before the storm"-feeling. I was wondering if Kazehaya will be getting at Ryu in the next episode.(Don't know the manga)
Episode was awesome as always and I found many moments pretty good handled.
Laughed at the scene with Pin and Kurumizawa and the scenes with Ryu were so amusing.

Now that I can agree with. It does give a "calm before the storm" feeling. What I wonder is if Kurumi is going to stop her stupid action since her expression shows something she did not want Kazehaya to show her.
>Pin reacted so funny at Kurumi's poker face.LOL. He seems so disgusted after seeing it.
>All Ryu's parts.
>Kazehaya dropping the cones as soon as he sees Ryu and Sawako together. Kurumi had this 'WAH?!' look. Too bad for you Kurumi,tsk tsk. She didn't expect Kazehaya to react that way.
>Yano and Kurumi's not-so-friendly talk. WAY TO GO YANO-CHIN!
>And..of course, Sawako having the desire to know her true feelings for Shouta.
I really like Yano in this episode, her talk with Kurumi... it makes it look like maybe someone does have a brain in this show XD
Oh, and I'm so glad Ryo came out and said he liked Chizuru :D Sawako's surprise was so cute!
But damn! Why does it always have to be a cliff hanger in the end ><
francismeunier said: What I wonder is if Kurumi is going to stop her stupid action since her expression shows something she did not want Kazehaya to show her.
I guess she's in blind love so she won't stop til she gets what she wants. Her actions tell me that. She feels like cornered(to her Sawako is kind of complicated so she gave up on her, already said I suppose) and now she's trying to "manipulate" Kazehaya dircetly.
Even though I don't fully support her actions I can see her point in trying to get Kazehaya loving her.
I think Yano and Ryuu made this episode - it's always the supporting characters eh
Kurumi didn't calculate for Kazehaya's jealousy it seems - with the preview that's not really a cliffhanger - next episode is called "Love" (what a contrast to this one's "Feelings of Love")
Dam't why next episode will be 6th JAN ? :( why so long...
But bout EP - simply - perfect - best Anime I've ever watched untill now - but I think time don't change result =)

However I suppose it won't work that easily.
I know what will happen and thanks to you I know why Kurumi will be like that when it happens. Too bad for her when it does cause she will deserve it!
Thanks, Yano. Looks like Kurumi did spread those rumors after all. What a big, fat, liar!
I'm still amazed by Sawako's strength in her cluelessness. No matter what Kurumi does, she fails.
Ryuu confirming his feelings for Chizu was awesome. Great match.
And when tempted, Kazehaya goes in for the kill.
Next episode looks like a good one.
Nice episode:
Ryu is such an enjoyable character and always helps Sawako in indirect ways. His lines in the episode were all perfect.
Go Yano! she really had Kurumi in her sights and was zeroing in on her. Catfight plz?
Kurumi is really good at scheming but i gotta wonder: why didn't she confess to Kazehaya in middle school already? what's the point in just driving away all the future girlfriends? weird girl. she should just drop the act and be bitchy, i'd like her more if she was an out and out bitch.
Kazehaya, get a grip man!You're just imagining things...
Surprise of the episode: Pin's aversion to Kurumi fakeness! Lol, I had him for a pervert-type character, nice to see the show move past such stale stuff.
Also, I just noticed the counter says 24 episodes. Yippeee!I thought we'd only get 13!
Sooooo much good development in this episode. All of the characters were were at their peak and I loved every second of it! This show may end up with a rare 10/10 on my list.

What!? NUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU ;_;
Cannot wait for the next episode. Looks like it could finally be the Kazehaya-Sawako moment we've been waiting for. And I really want to see Yano and Chizuru's counter plot against Evil Manipulative Super Bitch. There was so much potential to build up more misunderstanding drama in this episode, but it looks like they're skipping the bullshit and getting right to the good stuff. I hope I hope I hope I hope!
THAT LYING LITTLE FF-- Aya Hirano does a good job voicing the girl I want to strangle. She just makes me so angry.
Yano is seriously one of my favorites. She looks pretty darn hot even when she's just in her gym uniform. Chizu and Ryu sounds like a good couple, too.
When it ended I started yelling "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" And succeeded at making a complete fool of myself. But then I saw the preview for the next episode :3 and got happy.
Next episode: Love.
:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
Uwaa sparkling.. Kurumi is blink-blink..my eyes is blind..but doesn't really affected Pin XD
Meoww..cat-fight Yano x Kurumi..go for it Yano-chin meoww..oh Yano you don't have to use those expensive toner again, you has that sexy lips <3

She doesn't want to be hated by other girl, she wanted to be acknowledge by her rival to be Kazehaya's girlfriend, thus she use the plan to make Kazehaya as a public property meaning Kazehaya belong to everyone (Yay everyone happy)..and scheming to make her rival believe that she is the best fit for Kazehaya, and gain her rival's support..
OH MY GOD!!
ARAHHH I wanted to punch my laptop screen so much everytime Kurumi came into view ¬¬ shes such a bitch~
I really hope everything gets cleared up soon, it was really bugging me that her excuse of her being better than Sawako was 'Ive always been watching him..' so what just because you have known someone longer doesn't mean your better for them ¬¬ besides the fact, im pretty sure if Kazehaya ever did like her he would have made it a bit clearer like he is with Sawako ¬¬
Good points though, i'm happy Sawako has or is realising she has romantic feelings for Kazehaya ^^ and also the scene where Ryu confessed he loves Chizuru was very sweet :) I hope he confesses to her soon.

That's true, and despite them ending the episode like that, it was OK! But apart from the preview helping the cliffhanger.. the fact that Yano confronted Kurumi means that Yano and Chizuru will find a way to fix things up.
