Nice ending for the Kizu Random arc.
I only have a minor complaint about the lenght of Inaba's crying scene but I understand that she was letting out weeks of pent-up emotions. Concerning her punch to Taichi, I interpreted it as "Taichi, you're too reckless! Do you realize how much I was worried?". It was an irrational but understandable act. I dislike female violence towards the MC when it's only motivated by petty jealousy or embarassment but in this case I can accept it. I don't agree with those viewers who think that Taichi's character has not been explored enough. It's true that he didn't do much in this arc's finale but we saw a lot of his ugly side in Kizu Random, when he scolded Inaba, fought with Aoki and even hurt Iori. In episode 5 he already told us that the reason behind his White Knight persona is that he can't stand seeing people suffering. He'd rather take that suffering upon himself. Some viewers probably think that there must be some kind of trauma in Taichi's past that justifies his personality but that's not necessarily true. Concerning the confession scene, I think that Taichi rejected Inaba like a true gentleman, saying that he appreciates her feelings but he's already in love with Iori. The "right now" part IMHO it's just a nuance of the Japanese language; it doesn't mean that he is unsure of his feelings for Iori. Finally, for the people who were expecting a catfight between Iori and Inaba, I am glad that the writer didn't go that way. It would have left a bad taste in my mouth. I am aware that in real life it is next to impossible for two girls who are in love with the same guy to remain friends but I am willing to give the show some suspension of disbelief. Especially since Iori already showed a sign that she is not perfectly happy with the status quo. Now, since Iori and Taichi's relationship has been put on hold until the resolution of the "unleashing of desires" situation, I am curious to see if they will officially become a couple next week. Of course I cheer for Inaban to triumph... Sawashiro-san is such a goddess.

She is one of the seiyuus people say is a "real ability" seiyuu, rather than an idol seiyuu or a seiyuu who depends on the cuteness of her voice. Yuuki Aoi, who played Murasaki to her Shinkuro in Kurenai, more or less worships her. They have both won the seiyuu award as top seiyuu in a given year. Some of her other well-known roles are Shinku in Rozen Maiden, Lag Seeing in Letter Bee, Celty in Durarara, and Kanbaru in Bakemonogatari. Huge range, obviously, although you can just about always recognize her voice. She is also in a live theatre group. She is known to be smart and have a bit of a sharp tongue, so I can't help thinking she's perfect for Himeko, lol.

Just logged in to say that Miyuki-San's best role (for me) was in a little-known (outside Japan, that is) video game by the name of Dangan Ronpa. There's a LP of it somewhere in somethingawful and I believe there is a thread in animesuki about it too. I can't say what her role is because that would spoil it ;_;. Please don't search for it either as the game is very easy to spoil and you will be spoiled if you look info about it. Just go read the LP (and/or play the game if you can). The LP has videos etc. linked and heed witness to her amazing performance. I can tell you that the antagonist of the game is the cutest teddy ever voiced by the old lady who voiced Doraemon for decades though!

Also, Himeko is that "cool mature beauty"; just because she's a young girl when in love doesn't change the fact that her usual personality is that calm and assertive character. Which btw, even Celty had her otome moments when in love.
