THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Yuuhi breaks the engagement to Ren'ai with Junichi - wise decision.
Minato and Yuuhi clarified everything.. (I want Minato x Yuuhi ending :3) now it's time for Junichi to decide. Maybe we will have a sudden turn into Minato arc? (I dont know the game)

So next episode is already the last, we will hopefully see the parents, maybe some past and how it ends.
Rather good episode, even when it wasn't that much happening. Akane-iro tries to cut their losses after the very disappointing middle part.

I don't think they've even mentioned Mikoto's name because she's just there and her arc is completely off to the side. And who's Karen, wait never mind she's in the PS2 ver.

Great episode. Finally people got around to see it. Wow this was slow after all. Very slow episode but we get to see development and that is good.

So Minato finally admits that she loves her brother but what a powerful confession with the emotions running rampant.

Junichi gets taken by black suit guys working for his father? For what purpose was he brought at that base? The end seems to be filled with mystery but things cleared up between Minato and Yuuhi. Shiawase! (means happy/happiness)

Great emotions/good comedy although not as good as other episodes/good resolve No problem here but "School days" would be cool and who is Nagomi exaclty? We still do not know.

1.Yuuhi, so much emotion put unto this scene. I did not tear but my jaw was dropped for the whole scene. Very surprised at how much emotion poured in.
2.Nagomi? OwO Who is she really? It is bugging me more than ever.

It was okey. Good, albeit predictable, as Defiance said. I dunno, doesn't bother me that much. Wouldn't really like a nice boat ending though. =x

I don't even know with whom I want Junichi to end up with, I guess I don't mind. So unless they totally screw the final ep, I'm satisfied. (That's not to say this series is awesome or even good, though... For now it's getting a 6/10.)

I've been waiting days for this to come out..

So Minato finally confesses to Yuuhi about her love for Junichi.. emotions and tension are starting to build up.. then the next thing: They're f***in laugh about it!! WTF?! What the bloody f**k?
I mean what kind of a reaction is that? Cry, scream, suffer, fight but handling it like yesterday's news.. God damn it..

This will never be a decent program, not even in a 100 years..

Despite the twists going on in this episode, I could still see a final fight over Junichi's heart in-between the action-ey parts of the final episode. Imagine Yuuhi saying:

"I know of your feelings for Junichi but I'm not going to give up without a fight!" :P

So Yuuhi and Minato got together quite easily huh? Didn't expect much of a drama fight on their part. Still nice to watch though.

I had some perverted thoughts at these scenes:

Either blame the subbers, or Yuuhi! :P

dragonshade said:

Agreed with the first part! But I love Tsunderes, they're so much fun~

A rather shaddy reunion with Junichi's parents. I wonder if it will be really that interesting in the end though.

Anyway, Minato ftw~

Fan excitement expected on this one. We all want something so exciting like the sister VS the to be be bride Yuuhi. I am starting to see many more things in anime then when I did not watch it since I did not know about it. Do my episode discussion suck? I did not really ask anywhere this just want to know since I am new on MAL, I did have comments saying that I am a funny person. Ok, cool.

Mmm. If we have a Minato x Junichi ending, I'll raise my score for this.

And if we have a School Day's ending... :D

But yeah, Minato and Yuuhi got over the whole problem they had kind of quickly. Oh well. One of the better episodes.

And then there was one. :3

I know! It'd be horrible if that was the last episode and then episode 12 is just a clip show with only flashbacks.

I at least expected a slap to make a challenge. Weak. I was so dumbfounded by the friendliness in that scene that I thought the next line would be, "now that that's settled, lets go take a bath".

I vote Junichi x Yuuhi since she put in the effort, but it'll probably be just incest. c'est la vie. Who knows, maybe it'll be Junichi x (Yuuhi + Minato).

I hope Minato ends up with Junichi. Who cares if it's incest. As long as it's love, it doesn't matter if you're related or not.

Oh man that part made me think of nasty stuff too. That was terrible for a to be wife to think of orgy with the to be husband's sister, although being open minded, Yuuhi would love the breasts of Minato a lot.

For awhile there it was looking kinda bleak for her, but things have finally turned around. The fact that Minato's feelings were only a real focus later on in the series should have tipped me off.

So they forgot about Junichi and began living together. Would be epic. Yuri FTW!

...Yes, the show is cliché and the whole trouble got resolved in what? 5 minutes? But I still like this show. Kind of hard to explain why, but I like it. I'm interested in the next episode, since they can pull it wherever they want. Need translation for the game.

Three-way FTW. Anyways we finally have some character development and maybe even plot(GASP!). I do wonder if father is really dead because who else will explain that Minato is not really his sister(although that conversation is still wrong because so far the cast now thinks that Minato is his sister so they approve of incest). I just want this horrible show to end.

Me too. I can't believe it will end with incest, and if it does then I'm very wrong about how I feel for the whole situation.

I thought the scene between Yuuhi and Minato was a good release of emotion. I don't see Minoto's love for Junichi as lustful incest, and I don't think Yuuhi sees it that way either.

I think it's very clear that Yuuhi has not given up on Junichi at all. She simply wants to find love in her own natural way, without interference. She says:

"Do not misunderstand. I simply said following your instructions regarding this engagement will be unnecessary. I have properly judged with my own eyes the man known as Nagase Junichi. ... from this point on, I would like to decide on my own terms, without the influences of being engaged or our respective families. I will be making love with Nagase Junichi."

She broke off the engagement because it was unnatural and unnecessary.

She's not leaving because she's given up. She's leaving because of the pain felt by Minoto, who she very much cares for as her first true friend in life.

Minoto is confused and needs to understand her own feelings. Admitting her love for her brother is the first step, and when she understands that there's no shame in doting on her beloved oniisan then she will find peace.

Minoto and Junichi have been totally dependant on each other over the many years of their parents absence. It's very natural that they've become so close, and as young adults full of hormones it's no surprise that some ambiguity exists about the nature of their relashionship. Minoto is a very homely girl, and one day will make a wonderful wife to a very lucky man.

Minoto is a very simple and loving girl. The one thing she needs above anything is security, and for years she has been playing house with her brother in a kind of marriage role-play. When Yuuhi comes along, she has to share her brothers affection and her comfortable life is threatened. That is why she so badly needed to be held that one time. She is jealous of Minoto simply because her brother's attention is divided, which is a very childish thing but not uncommon and not shameful.

Minoto simply needs to grow up. Yuuhi is far more mature, and can see this clearly. As she says:

"Perhaps I am an adult now"

I thought this excellent episode was very mature, and revealed a lot about the key players. It's been a very patchy series, but I'm looking forward to seeing how it develops. In particular, I need to understand Junichi better and I hope that will come soon.

Wow, long post. Sorry!

I found your review to be most interesting in psychological analysis. I would also agreed Minato has problem of mental order due to her being with her brother in the house with not much parent supervision due to their jobs.

BTW do not worry about the posts mine's are longer than yours. :P

Thank you both!

I'm pretty new here, so it's really good to know people have read my thoughts on this. I think a lot of people are expecting too little from this series, and perhaps misunderstand due to preconceptions.

I just really hope I'm not disappointed and proved wrong!
