| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- There is something about Miya that is just extremely menacing. I think it's the way the director often depicts her in Shadows and how manipulative she seems to be. Her assertion that she likes that Nanako is is submissive is a highlight of her biggest character flaw, she's just not proactive enough. In fact, Nanako comparing herself to Mariko and her assertiveness with Kaoru sort of gives me the feeling that our protagonist will try and make a change. The scene with the cigarette deserves mention as well. When you are a young person particularly in your teens and around many people that are as influential Miya, Kaoru, and Rei it's easy to see how Nanako would try and find a way to close the distance she feels is between herself and her crush. The thing is that you lose part of yourself when you do something like this. I know that sounds melodramatic, but I think that cigarette represented Nanako almost throwing something of herself away in order to maybe conform to others. I was pleasantly surprised that Rei threw her drugs away. Hopefully she can make a turn around. |

| That Miyaaa.. seriously kill the b*** ! other than that, I really hope Nanako doesn't end up with Rei or something.. I would totaly hate this anime if that's the case.. I'm barely putting up with Mariko liking Kauro. Also I was so glad Rei didn't take the drugs.. |

| She almost lit Rei's cigarette! I prefer Kaoru/Rei over Mariko/Kaoru and Rei/Nanako tbh. Miya is such a bitch though |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| "You have no clue how uncouth, unpleasant, self-centered, disgusting, savage, and shameless creatures men are!" Oh my. |
 |
| Mariko sure has some major daddy issues. |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |
| First Mariko, later also Miya... Gee, everyone seems to have something against hetero relationships in this series >:D |
  |
| Mariko used to be funny....not anymore |
| :v |
| Why does it have to be Rei of all people!? Why couldn't it be Tomoko or maybe Kaoru? What does Nanako see in her anyways!? Also Mariko is being a bit too annoying about her love for Kaoru. |

| *Yuri-ness intensifies* Bit sad (and annoying) Mariko has such a view on males but also understandable seeing that her own cheating erotic writing dad is like that. I'm really curious to what the deal is with Miya and why she's so controlling over Rei and even Nanako. |

| Aww Nanako is in love, a shame she's in the middle of the mess that is Miya wanting to control her and Rei. It felt so good seeing Rei just getting ready for another day until Miya came in. It was so contrived and annoying that Nanako had to bring the letter to school so Miya could find her. Mariko, you need help. |
| I thought Mariko was manipulative but it seems like Miya is even worse... |
| It's a shame that the user above was removed, because I do like their overall assessment of the episode. Mariko is something that's very wishy washy in extremes. She feels strongly for people and is able to change super fast. A lot of people here are confused by her, but I've seen people like Mariko in real life. My older sister's friend was exactly like that. She'd make friends easily, and then fall out with those people, and then make back up, rinse and repeat. People like Mariko exist. She falls in love fast, and her moods are extreme. Like her feeling extremely disappointed when Kaoru had to spend her lunch talking with her coach, and then doing a 180 when Kaoru called her by her first name. Mariko falls fast and hard, and we've known that from the first episode. She immediately liked Nanako and really wanted to be her friend. This anime is not ideal for the slow burn lovers. Nanako and Mariko seem to fall in love relatively fast tbh. Nanako is already in love with Rei, and she's only really interacted with her a few times. Heck, even Miya seems to have fallen fast and hard for Nanako. |
| Rei still seems to be staying away from drugs, which is great. It seems that Nanako is attracted to Rei. Miya is pure evil. She must be stopped. |
 |
| At this point I can't hope for any redemption of Miya, she's just a bully. Whatever explanation there is for her behaviour, it isn't right, she's clearly messed up in the head and all she does is messing with others for her own messed up satisfaction. So proud of Rei for standing up to temptation. I'm liking her more and more with each episode. And apparently it wasn't just my imagination that something is going on with Nanako's feeling too. Really curious how it will all play out in the end. |
