About Nobuse, I understand him giving her space but that's a little odd way to provide it. The best would have been to not see her for a few days at least, this forces her to think about him which could/not be good for her already troubled mind set. The expressions I was referring to was after Nobuse left, that's no longer part of her attempt to avoid him. Its showing something else. |

That is what I was also talking about. Note the Sweat drops they put on her. Sweat drops are probably because she is not confortable, she feels bad about avoiding him. If she is going to have a chance with Jin she has to remove the obstacles which are TWO. One is she being like a sister to Shin and the other ios Nobuse. I think she will break with Nobuse in the next 5 episodes to later on get backtogether with him.

I'm curious if she does break up with Nobuse and removes both him and her appearance as a sister to Shin, how they will have enough time to put her back together with Nobuse. |

I think the writers have made it very clear that Aiko has not been happy with Nobuse because she was forced into the relationship and has always been wondering the If. She never went after Shin because she knew he was in love with Hiromi. |

Shinichiro can say whatever he wants at that moment, it won't change the fact that it'll be on his mind, mark my words, its not the end of Aiko. Watch her be in the scene once Hiromi gets down and dirty with Jun.

Aiko really needs to make her mind. Either give up on Shin or try hard to work at it, be persistant like Nobuse. The first thing she needs to do is get out of the pity relation she is in with Nobuse. It is not helping anyone, if she decides to give up on Shin, then she needs to decide if she wants to stay in a relation where she doesn't enjoy herself or get out of it. Aiko staying with Nobuse will be like Hiromi staying with Jun, but in Aiko's case she gets a guy that loves her even though she doesn't love him. I compare Aiko to Mao from kimikiss. The only difference is that Mao has a good chance while Aiko doesn't. |

I really think Shin is acting like a normal person, how would you really react if you get a kiss of a girl you have known for you entire life (or almost) and saying that she actually loves you... would be on my mind too...even when u are dating other people
well I still hope at a shin x noe ending becuz face it, what she did with shin's best friend is kinda... low, date him to get closer to shin... what's that for a way to get closer anyway?

I agree with germanturkey.
Shin's reaction to Aiko is exactly what's expected of a normal person. I'm sure that despite knowing what sort of pain it would cause her, he'd never betray his friend nor Noe because of it. Nobuse is also doing the right thing I think by giving Aiko space when she wants it. Pushing things right now would only end in disaster, even if things will crash inevitably. And germanturkey, i can't belive you reminded me that there's only 5 episodes left. When this show is over I'm going to CRY. (oh wait...i already have cried from this show, quite a few times already...hahahah)

The irony in all of this is that her gamble would've had a chance if she wasn't going out with Miyokichi.
Farewell, Aiko; you handled your rejection with class and I hope you continue to do so. You may have pulled a Sekai but the last thing we want to see is a NICE BOAT ending... |

Well, this is somewhat unrelated... by my fiance is a childhood friend for the past 18 years... And she has had a crush on me for 10 of those 18.... to say the least... I was dense >_> <_<.... I admit it was surprising, at first but I didn't try to forget about it... I gave it a chance and it worked out.
I believe Shinicihiro turned her down, cause he was extremely confused... He just found out that the girl he's been longing for is possibly his half-sister (although genetically its only 1/4th, but I wont get into that XP) and now he's about to date a girl that he thinks he likes, then all of a sudden his child hood friend who is "dating" his friend just kissed him and confessed to him... given the circumstances, I can understand why he said and did what he did. But, he won't surely forget it though... he'll be thinking about it for at least the next 3 episodes... maybe even till the last episode. |

I doubt you can forget your first kiss that easily(I still remember mine). He already is making excuses to avoid Aiko, His "date" with Noe was something out of the blue that he decided to avoid being dragged to Aiko's store by nobuse. The funny thing is that the cliche of the childhood friends is just an anime cliche. In real life childhoodfriends that develop feelings for each other make the best couples, I have met 5 couples that were in this situation during my lifetime and all them are happy. So far I have not seen a divorce yet from them. |

I believe the benefit of a childhood friends turn romantic, is that theres no situation where all of a sudden you find out a horrible habit of the person that turns you off immediately to them... you generally know everything about the other person, and fall in love with them for all their pros AND cons. Its not a mere infatuation of the exterior.

Or she can actually break up with the deadweight Nobuse who's really what's keeping Shin on the other side of the fence. As it was pointed out already, her gamble would have had a much better chance if she had out right dumped Nobuse... but he of course did not let her.
