That's The Only Thing That Will Keep Me Holding On Until Next Week. - Tumblr Posts
I need to stop watching previews because they make it ten times harder to wait for a new episode. I’m looking at you My Personal Weatherman!
The miscommunication is strong between these two, and while I’m usually not a fan of that, I think it works really well for this story and these characters. Yoh has incredibly low self esteem and thinks poorly of himself, and thinks Segasaki is better than him in every way. Segasaki is a man of action and rarely uses his words to express his feelings. Even if Segasaki uses his words, Yoh doesn’t understand his meaning and thinks he means something else (usually something negative). Man-san’s husband had my favorite lines in this episode when he talked about how a person can misinterpret another’s words based on their mood. Which is exactly what Yoh did, he thought Segasaki was being demeaning and unappreciative about his job, when Segasaki was trying to be comforting (though his word choice was not great, admittedly).
Anyways, we got a glimpse of Yoh and Segasaki in college and how Yoh fell in love at first sight (basically), though he seems to deny those feelings. The tension between them was insane, especially when they stared at each other while passing in the hallway. We also kinda get an idea of where Yoh’s low self esteem comes from, which seems to be from other people telling him that he is a nobody, a loner, and a weirdo.
Im excited to see how Mizuki fell in love with Yoh in the next episode, and it obviously has to do with Yoh taking care of him when he was sick. And the CURRY! Yoh’s terrible curry that Mizuki wants to eat again, probably because it shows that Yoh cares for him.
And a confrontation/kiss in the rain?!! Potentially Segasaki realizing that he could loose Yoh because Yoh doesn’t understand their relationship. There are so many ways that I would personally write this scene, so I am curious how it actually turns out.
And now the countdown to next Friday begins…
