Something to do with a love letter from the previous season.

Yeah they got the charm and the charisma, but that said they still have elements of stupidity to both of them With Hayate saying the wrongs things at the worst times and Keima letting himself get carried away with his 2D love... I don't remember much about Ranma anymore... Quote:
But like I've previously said- this show is going to be humor first, ESB second, and romance third. At least that's how everybody's gonna advertise it. Though the Interesting thing about BakaTest's romance is that the other guys get a shot at it as well With most harem stories, the comic-relief best friend gets nothing

.....and Hayate isn't really what I think of when you say smart xD. He also falls into the oblivious category most the time (Isumi, Izumi, Nagi, fails with Maria, Hina, Luca?, and I'll give you A-Tan.....). Now take your generic harem lead and compare him to Usui from Kaichou wa Maid-sama. The difference is night and day. Usui is pure alpha. Aki is......ya. Or even better...how about Ichika t.t

To that end obviously the best harem lead is NaGARsumi, who could maintain a harem even when engaged to a fiancee Quote:

Also, Kuroko or Shimizu? Who wins? @back to topic: I see a shout-out to one of Hiro Shimono's roles: the bungee jump for Tadashi from Special A. WTF? The FFF Inquisitory Squad went up to eleven! Scary! Last edited by judasmartel; 2011-09-06 at 02:09. |

Looking in hindsight, I'd say the girls are as much to blame as Aki is.
I think the girls want him to confess first. But, they should know by now that that isn't going to happen anytime soon (even if they don't know what circumstances prevent Aki from truly picking a girl), so I think they should swallow their pride/shyness/whatever and go for him themselves. The real problem then is, how to convince him without making him think it's all an act? Now, we see that Minami gets distraught by a simple misunderstanding (two, if you count the scene where he suddenly leaves her to go after Mizuki), and Mizuki gets heart-broken when what he says isn't what she wanted to hear. As much as Aki should clear up any remaining misunderstandings and be more careful what he says and does, the girls should be more assertive and not let his stupidity get the best of them. But, this love issue will probably remain a focal point of the series, so I doubt we'll see any resolve in it sometime soon.

I concur with everyone, Hideyoshi is Destiny.
I also am not surprised the arc ended badly and was handled rather poorly. I had no prior illusions regarding the skill behind this anime's team given all prior episodes -- and the previous history of Japan's harem anime. Although I like Minami (unlike this season's Himeji, who alternates between utterly uninteresting and kind of overboard), my lack of illusions dampened much of the potential rage. The rest of it...I was too busy rewinding the confession scene to care. Oh my heart! That said, the hell is up with the "later novel spoilers" regarding Minami and later romance developments at /a/? Real? Fake? Trollfags? And no, don't tell me here, or with visitor message (people can stumble onto it by mistake), PM if you please. |

Aki, was really proven again that he's a really an idiot!
and that with Mizuki was the nearest miss, she really expected that Aki would say that "you really love me" thing... to Minami's POV, its too late too confess what is her real feelings to Aki.

If the actual element of the facepalming reset development is from the LN, which I imagine it is, then thumbs down to the author too, in addition to the anime producers not doing a very good job of smoothing over the development. But as I said, I had no illusions they were going to succeed in the first place, so no rage from here. |

I also see nothing wrong with the direction this episode take, everything flowed normally. But this is opinionated so whatever.

You might need a little tidbit at the end of Volume 3.5. Anyway, if you're lazy, just watch.
As for Hideyoshi, well, -2nd nicest person to Akihisa (first is Mizuki, kinda swapped sometimes) -Bishoujo -It's Hideyoshi. When even the fans lust over him and the author has Hideyoshi as his wallpaper (almost all the time), you know that people want Hideyoshi as a bride/groom/broom/gride/whatever.
