| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Nitta's line in the end summarized it all, Tatsuya for Prez. |
| The upside of Tatsuya being a complete and utter pussy is that I'll get to see more of Minami looking super-cute when she's jealous, from this point onwards. If there's one thing there hasn't been enough of in Touch so far, it's Minami getting jealous over Tatsuya being with other girls - him being a useless idiot for most of the series and all. It was nice to see Tatsuya *FINALLY* help Minami out with her stalker issues, also. He hasn't redeemed himself since any real man wouldn't have needed three attempts, but at least he isn't going to go the entire series without getting openly angry over guys hitting on her. |
| Lol at Yuka's funny comments about her brother's weakness is Minami. |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| Ugh Yuka needs to GO! |
 |
| This will take so many episodes to sort out. |
 |
| Yuka is best girl, fuck you haters! My actual greatest fear at this point in the series is that they will use her as nothing but a romantic rival, a character for Minami to vanquish and move past. Just one ill-considered plot development and she could end up sidelined for the rest of the series! I love Yuka but I fear she won't stay around for much longer... |
| “Money can't buy dere” |
| Jealousy is the air is a nice feeling. Sadly, Yuka stand no chance against Minami. |
| A very nice development for Minami and Tatsuya after all. HARADA is saving day, best bro always being a best bro. For Yuka, I can' t say anything but she is a really good girl though. And what I love from this anime is it gives characterization to the main opponent and I really like the development for the story.' |
 |
| Nitta is being more sincere about his feelings for Minami, Yuka is being totally open too, and both Minami, and Tacchan are feeling jealous towards each other, it's a nice development I guess, but it will all depend on how it ends, I wonder what drastic, and easy way out the author will find now, first it was a death, then a transfer to a really far away country, let's see what is coming now. Oh, at least Tacchan finally protected Minami from Nishimura, he got some help from Harada, but it counts. |
 |
| Finally a typical Harada moment again. It was a good episode. I mean, based on the previous episodes, one should've gotten the gist of things, but the characters are playing with open cards now. This will surely make up for even more interesting dynamic between the cast. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Tatsuya finally stood up for Minami (even though he was never obliged to do it and she could have done it herself)! And our boi Harada made it a lot better! Ah man I really miss Harada episodes |
 |
| Suddenly, a wild Harada appears! It was cool Tacchan was FINALLY standing up to that bitchass Nishimura but Harada kinda stole the spotlight. MangMentor said: I imagine this Nitta x Minami ship was popular in the 80's at the time of Touch's original airing. It could be also manga readers requesting this but I wish the animation studio didn't pick this route. Imo after the hospital episode this separation arc destroys both Nitta and Minami's character up until this point. This could've been resolved if they animated the hospital scene later though. Maybe the anime does a similar thing later on. I just hope this filler arc will have a better conclusion. Another filler episode (not being true to the manga) where the animators are trying to force Minami to get closer to Nitta. Because of the last couple of filler episodes, Minami is being seen as someone who is a little sneaky trying to keep her option open with Nitta. Manga wise (without spoiling anything beyond this episode), Nitta does like Minami but Minami sees him at best as a friend and is not a person who would try to flirt with someone else as she really loves Tatsuya and has never considered anyone else other that Tatsuya as an option. CoreFinder said: You're not the only one. I thought Yuka was similar to Yagami. And Minami getting jealous reminds me of Kyoko xDDon't know why but this romantic plot reminds me of Maison Ikkoku in some way. While watching Maison Ikkoku I noticed Touch would sometimes come up in conversations. Now I know why. |

| @MangMentor Are you stupid? Why does something being different from the manga make it filler? The anime is allowed to go in a different direction and flesh stuff out more. Just read the manga again if you're so sad about any changes and want to whine about how it's all non-canon or whatever. |
