I've used that argument to rationalize his attraction to myself, so I understand your point. Still both of the boy/girl relationships seem based largely on physical attraction and not much else. What we've seen of Sentaro and Yurika's relationship has an even stronger physical focus, both when he first sees her on the beach and later in the shirtless scene. Yet even though we've seen much less of Yurika than of Ritsuko, I have a stronger sense of Yurika as a personality, a more feisty and adventuresome young woman than Ritsuko.

Even when I was seventeen, lo those many years ago, there were cute and cheerful girls that I couldn't imagine being romantically interested in because there just wasn't enough "there" there.
