Well, the whole carnival ride scene with Asami and a crying Shuuri was a foreshadowing, but we just didn't understand it at that time. The ride on the bus was another, and even though I mentioned that one in ep 10, I'll admit that one was too small to be taken seriously. But now when we look back at those scenes, they all fit with what was revealed in this episode. I can understand how the twist may be too sudden for some people, but to me, a good twist is one you don't see coming at all, but when you look back you realize yes it works. I guess I'm tired of obvious foreshadowings like Nanaka's fire breakdown in episode 5 or the whole Kaji thing. We all saw those a mile away, and when it happened it just felt like "Ah, I see.... ok what's next."

And if the lesbian thing is what's bothering people, they could have easily switched it so Asami was going after Shuusuke instead. It would have worked just as well.
