After getting this angsty, I'm not sure I'll like getting out of this with a non-tragic end.
By the way, is Ai completely done? Did she do anything? Any reason she's one of three main heroines?

She did a substantial bit more than the typical "3rd girl" in these kinds of animes, so I don't know why you're making that kind of comment.
She kissed the main dude and went all the way to a confession with that, which roiled his feelings in a lot of ways, and that has helped him re-evaluate where everyone is and what each of them means to him. The hope is that he learned a lot in dealing with the Shin/Ai/Nobuse, and that he takes those lessons with him to dealing with Noe and Hiromi as he resolves the main triangle.
The main triangle always was Noe/Shin/Hiromi; Ai's drama was intended more to shed light on that far more complex relationship as well as to show where she started and where she's going, and that's the same role that Nobuse plays as well; the two of them serve as foils for the main players in the main square I guess of Shin/Hiromi/Jun/Noe.
