His best moment in this ep. was when he told Tamako to do her best, when it was clear she was worried about the swimming. And doesn't he wave to her to encourage her when she hits the halfway point?. Where it counted the most, he was encouraging in a steady and sensible sort of way that would be a good fit for Tamako's high-spirited obliviousness. He's at his best when Tamako actually needs help with something, as was the case with the commercial filming. When it's just a question of spending time with her, he becomes overwhelmed by his own feelings. I think Midori realizes some of this by the end, which is one of the reasons she warms up to him.
