Futakoi 11
Ever since Christmas Eve Nozomu hasn't seen Kaoruko or Sumireko. It's now the new year and time to visit the temple (初詣 - hatsumoude). Kira and Yura dress up and go and Nozomu meets them there. Though he's still worrying about all that went on... Their wish is to go to the same school as Nozomu..
Later on they run into Kaoruko and Sumireko.. and rocket man Yuuya. While the girls are off with Lulu and Lala, Yuuya talks with Nozomu. He tells him that he did the kokuhaku thing, but Nozomu stops him and says he understands what's going on... The Ichijou sisters fanclub shows up afterwards and their leader looks to challenge Yuuya to a fight. Yuuya, besides being a rocket scientist, is also rather good at aikidou so he beats the crap out of him, leaving the big guy crying as Nozomu talks to him afterwards.. Nozomu eventually gets to the restaurant where everybody's having something to drink. He's still a bit out of it though and confuses Kira with Yura (...I do that ALL the time). As he's worrying about things at home he gets a call from his father in Hawaii and even he notices that Nozomu's not in too good a mood...
The next day Kenmochi, Yura and Kira's butler, has a talk with Nozomu. He's noticed that Kira and Yura don't seem to be as happy as usual, thinking that perhaps Nozomu's feelings are elsewhere. He asks Nozomu to be forthright with his feelings to Kira and Yura... Kira and Yura haven't shown up at school for a while and have been studying at home, since Kenmochi won't let them out. But they want to go to school again and see Nozomu. Even if he has feelings for someone else, that doesn't change their feelings for him.. Outside their house, Nozomu is hesitating whether or not to go and tell them how he really feels.. He finally chickens out and leaves...
After that comes the shocker as Kira and Yura leave for school -- they won't be going to Nozomu's school anymore, they'll be transferring...
And that's where we end for this episode. I've got one thing to say to Nozomu...
Don't be an indecisive bastard like Takayuki!!
That's the feeling I got as he left Kira and Yura's house. Hopefully things won't get that bad and he'll be able to tell them his feelings, but you never know... At least now it seems like they'd be able to accept them since they seem to understand that he likes someone else.. But what's going to happen to them since they'll be transferring?
Well, next time is the Valentine's Day episode. Some not-so-happy looking scenes in the preview, but we'll see.
Hahahahaha ^_^ ... oooo, we see someone who learned to love Bakayuki as much as me.
I hope you'll thematize your KimiNozo review in your next audio update, and a bit more indepth than "didn't turn out the way I wanted it to". At least, it's an excellent benchmark to judge other animes against.
"Don't pull a Bakayuki" ... hehe.
Maybe Kenmochi needs to make Nozomu watch KimiNozu so he'll see what happens if you're indecisive. ^_^
well i watched it.... this ep is the building up of the climax which we would see in the next ep...
in just 13 ep i have a bad feeling that this show would screw up. There are plenty of problems to solve.. firstly, there is kaoruko,nozomu and yuuya thingy... then there is the big rock thingy, there is kira and yura and not to forget sumireko....thinking about this, is 2 episodes enough????
AnimeOtaku: I thought about that too, they do seem to have an awful lot left to resolve in only 2 episodes. Maybe they're going to leave a few things open-ended?
Then again it wouldn't be the first time I've seen an Anime manage to resolve a lot of stuff in an episode or two. :)
