Matsuoka Yuki.

[typhonsentra]

This episode kinda implies that she likes him in all the arcs doesn't it? In all the other arcs the other girls don't feel bad/jealous as they all required "flags" to make them care for him, kinda sad I guess.

[justavisitor]

I would say not really, as I think even the past got altered in different arc

For example, Karou's arc and Ai's arc had some slight conflict in describing Junichi's past as Junichi met different lead girl on his way to home after he got dumped by a girl at that Christmas night

[Shiroth]

We've been set-up to believe that each arc is set in a different dimension so to say, though for all we know Rihoko could have had romantic feelings for him in each of them. We don't know what started her feelings towards him in the past, so until we find out it's impossible to say otherwise.

But even so, Junichi could have met all three girls on that day, for exemple ,went out first with Rihoko to buy the present , then after on the way back Ai and last Kaoru.

[justavisitor]

hmm...true...I thought in Kaoru's arc Junichi immediately met Kaoru after he got dumped on that day (because it seemed like he met Kaoru near the park)....not to mention that Junichi had a bike in Kaoru's arc and in Ai's arc it seemed like Junichi just tried to walk back to his house XD

but your theory could also work..

Besides, this story has no linear timeline, so it is very hard to tell whether everyone has the same past in different arc

[Setre]

With the glimpses I've seen of Rihoko throughout the series I've always figured she'd be my favorite and this episode didn't disappoint. My only complaint is that Junichi seems like a huge jerk for most of the episode until the very end.

[MeoTwister5]

I was wondering... is Junichi short or is Rihoko tall? Most of the girls are more or less a head shorter than him but Rihoko's almost up to his eyes...

As Karuroso said, it's possible that Junichi met all three girls that day/night. On another note, if we say that events in one arc contradict the other, then we could safely say that Junichi was getting close to all the girls at the same time and none of endings in each arc makes any sense. Except maybe Sae's considering he got closer to her before anyone else, or Sae would at least not be as shy as she was in every other arc she's been in. Each arc is more like an alternate reality of what could happen. There's no canon and non-canon arc here. It's up to you to decide who'se the best one for Junichi.

Well if he was taller then the other girls.. Then he defiantly is not short (especially the part where you saw him sliding over to return the *cough* thing) Rihoko is just probably tall

Yes the way I see it, the story about what happen two years ago for Junichi in each different is canon because it happened two years ago. However, the arc in themselve are all in seperate "universe".

A bit late, but I just gotta say I loved this first ep. Rihoko is lovely and the change in perspective (getting to see her more than Junichi is a big plus) was very much welcomed. Am I getting a new favorite girl, here?

Kaoru was my favorite but Rihoko is definitely making it a race. We've got a couple more episodes for me to decide.

I usually go for the strong non-ditzy type characters, but Rihoko is tugging at my protective side.

[BetoJR]

Same thing here, dude. Same thing.

[Himeji]

Got myself to finally watch her first episode, just to find she's just as bad as I feared: a somewhat pudgy, phlegmatic girl which completely lacks any self-discipline or motivation to do anything
She only visits the tea club so she can stuff herself with pastries (cream puffs or whatever else). Not that she isn't stuffing herself on other occassions already, mind you. From time to time she actually realises that she's eating too much, just to always decide that it'll be "tomorrow" when she'll start to eat less.
Besides that, she lives in her own little fantasy world and twists her memories to fit there (e.g. being turned into a princess instead of a meat bun).

At least there was other nice content in this episode, so I can still give it a 7/10.
Perhaps it would be better to skip her other episodes and go right to the last arc.

Hey at least it's not as bad as Sae's arc, right? Right?

Just because that looks to be the reason, i highly doubt it is.
