I think the goal is to become a "Normal" and make 100 friends, or alot of friends. I don't think anyone alive would consider Yozora a normal.

You forgot: They USED to be friends.

From an objective perspective, by Volume 6, they are friends by any other name. Whatever their willful refusal to completely acknowledge that, I'd say that they've slipped up into the Friendzone from Acquaintanceship or Club-mate. A fact, I'd imagine that both Rika and Kodaka are most aware of consciously (at least, as we can see), even if Sena and Yozora and Yukimura aren't.

I'd imagine Rika's main fear right now is BEING left in the Friendzone.

Scratch that. All the girls are subconsciously trying to get above the Friendzone.

Kodaka tries his best to treat all the girls equally and not to prefer anyone (seeing them as targets). The club and the members are a community of purpose.

I guess that also the girls (mostly Sena) are aware that the club might be not the same if they all acknowledge that they are friends. It's significant that even Sena waived to pursue Kodaka romantically. From this standpoint they all hold back their feelings.

Vexed release yet another chap.

Y : "...S-so, you know, Kodaka, on the day of the festival, you and I should——"

S : "I know! We can just make something for the cultural festival as the Neighbors Club!"

Sena declared in a booming voice, cutting off Yozora, who was trying to mumble something to me.

Y : "...Meeeeeeaaattt...!!"

S : "W-why are you glaring at me!?"

Sena's conflicted, I'd imagine. But then again, there are some implications that Sena is Bisexual in orientation....

Though indeed, if Kodaka and Sena do marry, I'd both envy and pity Kobato. My sister in law is a lesbian, and has hots for me indeed.

It kind of makes sense considering that the club has the people who're starting to matter to her, and it's like a "oasis" to her in someways. Being in the club allows her to be herself and wants to keep things the way they are without so much has having to dramatically changing anything aka possibly going out with Kodaka (it's obvious she's in love with him) etc.

It's just my thoughts on the volumes and the stuff I've read for the past 7 volumes.

Hah..you guys got sucked into the romantic part of this romantic comedy..

As it currently stands, things that pleases Sena, in ranking:

1. Able to do XX+OO to Kobato
2. Yozora become submissive to Sena
3. Able to step on Yozora
4. Be praised by Yozora
5. Be merely acknowledged by Yozora
...
Somewhere down the list is Kodaka.

As for Yozora, it goes something like this:
1. Back to 10 years ago
2. Cats
3. Kodaka begging to resume past friendship
4. Special friend status with Kodaka present tense
5. Turn Sena into Meat
....
Somewhere down the list is current (actual) situation with Kodaka

So in a way they've found an equilibrium of sorts..

In short, Sena is full of herself, Yozora is stuck in the past, and Kodako is doing his best at playing the dense card...

At the beginning of Vol. 8 I could image:

- Kodaka talks with Rika that he already knows that they are friends
- he expresses to her what the clubs means to him and why he wants to remain this state
- Rika understands it fully and they agree that this conversation will remain a secret between them

After this conversation the relationship between Rika and Kodaka is much more friendlier than ever and he does not even care about her perverted side any more - he even smiles about it. That makes the other girls very suspicious...

Funny! Kodaka's reaction to the girls changing.

Rika changes: Kodaka closes his eyes, don't think about anything, no reaction, not even a slight glimpse at her (and at the end he gets punished for not peeping).
Sena changes: Kodaka don't want to leave the room first.

Kodaka is a man after all.

Eh, there was nothing behind the Sena part. Kodaka was just being indifferent, since he didn't have to leave when Rika was changing. Besides he's already seen her buck naked...

Well even if there really was nothing behind the Sena part are you telling me you wouldn't want to have another look?!

Cause I sure as hell would want to!

How many times has Sena ran out in tears now?
It's a old and maybe overused joke but I still find it very amusing.

Look? Hell, I'd have a throne put in the room so when I sit in it all the lovelies will be groveling at my feet in various lingerie. Well except for Maria, since she's a little too young. She can stand beside my throne cracking poop jokes to make me laugh...

She's only too young by a year so i'm sure it'll be fine to throw maria in there for training purposes!

Just read the Maid Cafe chapter.
LOL that was great, Rika's using tsundere to let out her anger and Yukimura's being more vocal.

Quote:
Yozora's mouth was opening and closing like a fish out of water.
I showed her a kind smile while taking a step back, and closing the door to the clubroom.
But how?! He's not supposed to be able to make kind smile, his kind smile will frighten people xD

Kodaka's wishful thinking obviously. Fortunately the maid was not in a condition to respond, (or could be practicing serving customers better by keep mouth shut :P)

How amazing the maid dress was still intact, one size fits all.
