Isurugi Noe actually replaced Raigomaru with Shinichirou and leaves chicken food for him everywhere.


He later discovers Noe being picked up by bike by the mysterious boy from episode 2, who I thought was way older, lol.

Shinichirou goes sighing, wonders why and goes meet Nobuse and Aiko, who is giving Nobuse food in a kind of romantic way.

She then tries giving one sample of her food to her true sweetheart, but Nobuse gets it for him, ruining Aiko’s moment.

Aiko and Shinichirou,later, talk about Hiromi and Noe, and of course, Aiko understands and tells Shini that if you like someone, you want to get closer to that person, but when that doesn’t happen, you kind of get closer to someone close to him.

She stops, and I guess she realised she is doing the same thing with Nobuse.
After getting hit by Aiko, he thinks about Hiromi liking him and gets really happy.
At home, Shini’s mum tells Hiromi to delivered a bottle even if it’s dark, so Shini gets angry and goes with Hiromi.
When he asks her what did she mean by saying Noe saw through her, she changes the topic by saying she is grateful she came with her because she is scared of that road.
Also, Shinichirou actually remembers something about the festival and Hiromi plays dumb. We have some flashbacks, and if I understood, Hiromi has sealed her feelings for him because they are living at the same house.

Next day, there’s a Basketball game and Hiromi wakes up ealier. Shinichirou gets involved with Noe again and piggy-back rides her to the gym.

She wanted to see the guy that picked her up…

her brother.

While Shinichirou is thinking how to tell Hiromi what he was doing with Noe, he hears a conversation between Tomoyo and Hiromi, where she says she likes Isurugi Noe’s brother.

And, then, she discovers him peeking and gets startled because she told Tomoyo not to mention Shini’s name again.

Arghh, I really like were this series is going but I want Hiromi/Shini to happen so GAH!
