I agree and disagree. I never liked the temporary love thing (ie: S*z*ka), it's not fair to the girl. However, it would be good to get away from Yuki, put some space and gain some perspective.
The author did have to take down her web site because she was pummeled with comments and even had a death threat after Shou got that hickey. People get attached the characters, although otaku seem to be extreme no matter what.

Well, considering Shou made ONE mistake, you're not really giving her any chances at all, are you? It's not like she repeatedly and purposefully hurt Utsumi. It's not like she cheated on him while she was his girlfriend or anything. She rejected him because she was in love with someone else. If that's grounds to blacklist someone forever, then there isn't much use for forgiveness in this world.

I said it was a personal thing, and I always found it annoying when people were forgiven too easily for stuff like that... it irritated me to no end sometimes to see people just pass stuff off like it was a lark and to never bring it up again even though in many relationships it would be hanging over couples like a cloud <_< And there are plenty of examples of failure's to move on and giving people too many chances, Shou and her senpai, Yuki and Tooru etc etc...

Utsumi in the last chapter mention about not hurting Risa like how he was hurt goes to show that he hasn't forgotten what was done to him by Shou. Though since he's the nice guy lead he had forgiven her just not forgotten about it. Shame he didn't do like what a character from a Korean Drama did to he's ex-gf who had cheated on him, she came back wanting to get back together so they did, he slept with her and dump her ass afterwards. And he's character was the nice guy as well but thanks to her he mention that he had changed.

The reason why I don't like Yuki much is because I dated a girl that was similar to her once. She couldn't forget about her ex and was always swinging back and forth between me and him. I was stupid enough to take her back two times after twice she left me and twice she came back when he cheats on her again and again. I can't stand girls that can't get over their shitty ex's.

That sounds more like Shou then Yuki Takara, Yuki hasn't gotten back together with her ex and she is considering Utsumi as it is. And no Shadow, I don't consider it the same thing because Yuki hasn't done anything yet while doing what she can not to get Utsumi's hopes up like with Shou while at the same time is seriously reevaluating her relationship with him... and hey, technicalities are still valid in a court of law, how do you think most people get off nowadays?

That's just it. Shou didn't day Utsumi either and hasn't cheated on him. If you overlook Yuki's actions, but not Shou's (who didn't even go on a date with him yet, unlike Yuki), then it's a bit of a double standard.

It wouldn't be as bad if she had told Utsumi her decision rather than not telling him and secretly going on a date with that boy. Utsumi still thought they were going to have relationship only to be sucker punch by seeing Shou going on a date with that guy. At least by telling him before she had dated the other guy it would have soften the blow rather than being sucker punched by what he saw.

Going on a date doesn't really constitute a relationship, IMO. Utsumi never even confessed to her. Yes, the way she went about it is wrong, but you're acting like she did it malociously and was laughing at how much she hurt Utsumi. If you damn every girl for something like that, you might as well damn every girl in the world because I'm sure they've all made a mistake like that at some point.
While it's true that Shou may have gotten Utsumi's hopes up, so did Yuki with the date to the concert and the vague answer. The whole thing about this date with Risa was to show Utsumi not wanting to do the same thing to Risa that Yuki was doing to him. I honestly think people are playing favorite. Yuki could go sleep with Tooru and she'd still be forgiven by her fans.
