I like how Yuzuyu stayed friends with Marika anyway. It takes a big-hearted person to do that. Especially the way Marika is. -_- Oh yea, I wonder what's up with Kokoro? o.O

The foreshadowing of events continues--last episode they looked at the pictures of Kippei as a young boy and we heard the story of how he didn't want his brother to be born. This episode we see a similar thing with Kokoru over the news that her stepmother is pregnant. Kokoru isn't really good at sharing her problems with other people. It looks like Kippei is going to have to do something to break through her shell.
Please don't feed the trolls!

Hrmmm, wasn't planning to marathon this think but the episodes are just so happy, its weird because it isn't the best anime I've ever seen... not by a long shot, but I really am hooked in to it. Kind of like the set up tbh, gonna probably look in to more anime/manga like this, preferably with a bit more emotional depth.
Really hope Kippei can juggle both his relationship with Yuzu and Kokoro without letting down either of them.

Awesome episode - so many things going on. Yuzuyu was Boss how she handled that scene in the school. Kippei all but proposes to Kokoro. And then, Kokoro hears something she doesn't like from her father and at the end said WHAT to Kippei?!

Oh my, I haven't laughed this hard in a while. When Marika calls that other girl a dumbshit I almost lost it! Good stuff right there.

More romance in this episode than the past ones. I don't know about the phone call, but I think the rose bush was for Kokoro's mother. I'm guessing they planted it together, or they planted it for her mother. That's why she would be upset about her father cutting up the roses. Maybe that's why she's pushing Kippei away since she's jealous of Yuzuyu having someone while growing up.

The rose bushes where ones she and her mother planted together, and it is one of her fond memories. If there was anything left between her and her father, seeing him cutting them down for such a stupid reason destroyed whatever was left.

As for why she's pushing Kippei away right now, no, it's more complex than that.

I thought the relationship was going great, although now I really wonder what that phone call was, Kokoro breaking up all the sudden is really suspicious!

Lets see what's next!

About time they got in some serious development between Kokoro and Kippei. Kokoro keeping a poker face while gushing over the lunch was way too cute.

Marika really is best girl, that segment with her and Yuzuyu was so sweet.

So that's how yo break up, Kokoro is quite boring character. She barely talks and always keeps a sad face even when she is happy, that is so annoying.

It made me so confused how Kippei was pressing her apartment number to get in and then when she got there she didn't even need a key or code she just walked straight through to the elevator. I was so brain hurt I couldn't comprehend how he was there the whole time when he could just walk on through.

Hahaha, Marika has really grown on me, she is so funny. Between her and Yuzuyu a true bromance was born (Sismance sounds dumber). The way she insulted the other kid was hilarious! She doesn't give a fuck about anything.

Quite good episode. Let's see what happens with Kokoro.

Ah, now I see, Kokoro's father is having children with his new wife, that's why Kokoro's so conflicted.

Wow this is just depressing knowing the truth. Also it looks like her stepmother is giving a birth too? IDK why she wanted to break up there's no real reason gaaahhh now I understand why dealing with quiet girl can be a chore at times.
