Shuu failed... the possibility honestly never even crossed my mind. Funny how all the twists are things you would expect in real life.
So this clears things up his first choice was the same as Takatsuki and Chiba's and his second choice was Fumiya's school (Kaisei).
But did Mako and Oka make it? "If you hate it that much then don't come with us" could refer to walking home or to the school so it's hard to tell. I'd assume it's the latter but some clarification would be nice because the former would explain why Oka is so mad. I'm really hoping Mako made it or Shuu will be all alone. In any case, Shuu in an all boys school will be weird because he mostly gets along with girls. (Well in any case clarification will come later as it always does.)
And red hair... well it doesn't really interest me and it's just a passing thing *shrugs*. Shuu's really impulsive but we already knew that.
More cosplay/roleplay dates.
Introducing Anna to Yuki and Shi-chan was pretty much like introducing her to his parents. Another step forward in their relationship. (The anime made me realize Anna really likes buying matching stuff. She has gotten Shuu matching cellphone straps, matching hair clips and matching rings. The progression is kind of symbolic.)
Funny how everyone seems more distant graduating from middle school compared to entering it even though they've patched things up. Doesn't help how Shimura ended the chapter.
Nice positive note to end the story on before a break. (The closer we get to high school the less I like it. When you read a story for 5 years you get attached to the characters. And I don't even know the direction the story is going in any more. *sigh*)
