ofc makoto will listen to someone with a more decisive pressure being a person who is normally pushed around and it seems like all the other girls who follow him has a similar trait besides setsuna (who is the queen of handing out unwanted death glares
). but prior to thinking that she was the most intelligant one the end of this ep totally burns that opinion to hell...she is just as naive and childish as the rest of the crew *sigh*
i would say a happy end with makoto and setsuna would be unjust. after a big screw up like this for HIM to have a happy end while sekai and kotonoha is left scarred for the rest of their lives is just not something i would like to see.
