5.0/10 - I like that Harumi's friend is supporting the pink hair . . .

Yeah no pity for Masashi Yakumo. Who I will now unfondly refer to as Masashi. 20 years and he has actually confessed clearly like that before? But Harumi just doesn't understand since she wasn't allowed to date and then just never really dated. No. I get that Yamashita said she didn't get it before he had given her that note when he'd asked her out. But the note was a clear one and she understood it. Not to mention that she had a boyfriend that dumped her at the start and I doubt he was the first. Why would she have doubts that men are interested? How could she ignore a blatant ask out and confession like that? This is stupid writing. Oddly it's a trope that I have fond a lot in dramas, but mainly J-dramas. One that just drives me cray-cray!!!

I like that Harumi's friend is supporting the pink hair, but there's no way anyone is that dense!


Overall this episode was pretty fun. Masashi's role left a lot to be desired. He followed her out and just deflated like a balloon. This is one of those times would I would encourage him to move on. Harumi is ignoring his confessions because she doesn't want that to happen. Something is wrong with Masashi.

I had no idea cram schools would take trips though! I thought the whole trip scenario was going to be skipped in this drama. At least the swimsuit/hot springs was a joke! Not sure if I could have handled it.

Harumi clearly understood what Yuri was putting out. But she's a lady! It's been made clear she thinks it's a legal. Yes, I think she's into it but her good soul won't allow it! Which I approve. So I'm happy to wait with Yuri for the end joy!

Masashi is clearly on the outs to just be pitied now. Especially after he saw that flu induced hand holding between Yuri and Harumi. Yamashita is getting his divorce so I'm sure he'll be in the running soon.
