@ ani_d

I don't know about that; sure you always ended up defending Noe and I (along with others) always for some reason tended to lean towards Hiromi; I think the end showed that he had strong feelings for both in some sense. I think the shippers on both sides can be satisfied with that at least, since in some sense I think people on both sides early on were trying to simplify it into a box of him only really liking one of them.

Spoiler for 13:

This episode makes me appreciate a lot more, Shin's actions in 10-12, since I think I was perhaps blinded somewhat to his feelings for Noe when I argued that he should have been doing things properly at least somewhat. He legitimately had feelings for her, and although the resolution was hard on both; I think it really did do the series justice as I said above.

Spoiler for 13: For me the ending showed that he really did lose something by having to give up Noe since he did love her in some kind of sense, even though his romantic feelings were for Hiromi. To be fair I kind of think I missed parts of that in my arguments in the past few episodes and you took up that point strongly with the picturebook theme.
