I actually agree with this (including the snip). I think I phrased that badly. "Opportunity for portrayal of male-female friendship" should have been more something like "opporunity for portrayal of male-female friendship, free of the cliché romance attachment". (Actually, thinking about it in terms of cliché, I'm now imagining Sentarou having that secret crush. It's usually the female childhood friend who has the crush, isn't it?)
