Hmmm, its not that they're *side* characters but that they're introduced later in the series.... its more the case that the main 4 drop back a bit while the new ones are on stage and that the permutations of social nets increase.

I figured we'd see about 10 episodes of the '4 musketeers' and then we'd start seeing the others appear and watch the exploration of the net of friendships expand. I hate to note this but:

Spoiler for Miyuki and other girls:

I hate to note this but: Spoiler for Miyuki and other girls: Miyuki takes a hit in appearances as the others move forward --- I suspect that the author just ran out of things to do with her and that may have driven the creation of the other characters - multiplying possibilities. Kona/Kagami/Tsukasa share the stage with the new ones as well and they obviously appear a bit less often but Miyuki definitely takes the bigger hit. If we don't see some of the others by, say, ep 14 - then I'd guess KyoAni decided to focus on the 4 with just 1 ep appearances by the others. There is definitely enough material to be able to do that. I'm ambivalent about either path ... it'd be nice to see the rest but diluting the anime's focus could be a problem. __________________ "It Really IS Rocket Science", Novel series rough drafts; vol. 1 thru vol. 3 complete Volume 4 in work, Visit the thread for short stories!
