A total overreaction from Kyoko (and dog). The show introduces Kyoko as a worrisome, naive soul. But to collapse in fear of being alone with your neighbor? Jesus, miss.

Granted, Godai was aggressive. I'm sure he was trying to 'make a move' rather than overtake her, but the whole situation gave a bad vibe. In his defense, Godai wasn't being unreasonable. He's confessed and they've been through enough to realize each other's feelings.

On the phone: "Today? Sure after shopping"
Ichinose shows up: *High-five* xD

At least he's finally getting some guts! "ITTE!! KI!! MASU!!!!!!"
Kyoko was definitely overreacting, it's not like he's out to harm her in anyway, geez they've known each other for a year now!

Awwe, nonromantic so far.
I was worried I'd see Shun completely out do Godai in his Christmas gift to her. That would be sad to see.

Or the other gifts were simply not jewellery.

I'm so glad she knitted everyone scarves and not just for the two men who clearly thought he was "special" lol
Glad Godai found the gift he was going to give Kyoko last Christmas and finally gave it to her :)

I was glad he gave Kyoko's would be gift to Kozue. That was really nice and the right thing to do. It would have been dicky not to. I'm not a supporter of that pairing but Kozue's really nice and cheerful. I like every scene she's in, she almost always brightens the mood.

On another note, I have to ask what song was played in the cafe. I'm having trouble understanding what the lyrics are since there's a lot of foreground sounds blocking it and whatever I did catch I'm only getting results for a crappy song from Gaelle which is far from what was played.

There was a thread about Maison Ikkoku soundtrack. It had 46 songs on it, but I haven't gotten through it so perhaps it is there.

Lol, at everyone getting a scarf.

Nice that Godai was eventually able to give her his present and that she also put it on.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Agree with you totally, and I'm glad that he also thought to himself that he did the right thing because if he didn't, poor Kozue's heart will be broken

Hanae's high five to Yuusaku meamwhile he was trying to get rid of her was my favorite part.

Kozue is cute.

Yuusaku and Shun whole interaction about the scarf was funny and I found Kyouko sweet for her gifts.

Damn it’s Christmas again already huh, time sure flies in 1986 lol, but it was a nice one to compliment the original Christmas episode where Yuusaku was unable to give Kyoko’s gift to her, I was starting to wonder if that was gonna come back around or not but near the end of the episode he finally found it, funny that this plot got solved like 16 episodes later lol. It’s just unfortunate for Yuusaku that the scarf he thought he was special for getting turned out to be a gift that everyone got from Kyoko, that’s some emotional damage lol, but hey at least Yuusaku finally got that gift to Kyoko, and it was really sweet of Kyoko to gift everyone and it made for a funny end to the episode.

And I also want to mention that I’m glad giving Kozue the gift planned for Kyoko ended up working out, I thought at first that was a bad move and that Yuusaku should have just been truthful to Kozue, but after the rest of the episode played out I’m glad things went the way they did, Kozue is really sweet after all and was really happy to receive that gift, she deserves it.
