Mochizou x Tamako (with possible a ménage à trois with Midori, that's as close to your dreadful Midori x Mochizou I'm willing to go) and Prince x Choi is also acceptable.

Tamako x Midori x Kanna x Shiori x Choi OT5 for the win.

The boys get nothing.

Well that was a funny dance that Dera did

Ouji is Mochizou's family name, not his given name, unless you mean first in the Japanese naming convention of family name first, given name second.

The episode tones down the comedy a notch to deliver some quality slice-of-life. I couldn't help but sympathize with Midori in this episode because I'm all too familiar with that little spot of frustration she found herself. As usual, KyoAni manages to present a detailed depiction of her guilt and avoidance, alongside the feeling of release after revealing everything. Yep, this one hit pretty close to home for me.

I've spoken at length on this, and I don't think many will agree with me, but the whole subplot with prince really doesn't jive well for me. As such, I wasn't exactly thrilled with how the episode ended. But whatever I might think, this show is somehow both an eccentric comedy and a slice-of-life, so I guess it's a matter of course, just that the two aren't necessarily compatible all the time.

Still, this remains as truly fun show that manages to capture the richness of human experience.

A whole episode on Midori... oh how I am pleased.

Cannot wait to see Mochizou's reaction to the big news, if he ends up finding out that is. I suppose I shouldn't get my hopes too high though.

rulfo · 2013-03-20, 06:28

So little time. I dunno how this is gonna go into that situation.

edit: Ok this is the first time I have an out of nowhere opinion about this show or it's character(s)

Spoiler for ep 11:

SeaDoor · 2013-03-20, 15:49

Ep 11: Well, that was kind of melancholy.

The way I see it, Choi is The Prince's Bride. However, there seems to be a theme of unrequited love in Tamako Market. Well, everybody loves somebody.

Divini · 2013-03-20, 16:06

That was the first time I ever saw Tamako angry!

"Should I roll them up and turn them into mochi?!"

I was expecting it to be a tear-jerker, but it turned out to be really cute instead.

Blaat · 2013-03-20, 17:15

Ahh the poor sad faces on Mochizou and Midori, they should just comfort each other.

Haak · 2013-03-20, 17:25

^ They're saving it for the end. I can totally see it happen.

Kanon · 2013-03-20, 18:16

There is no way in hell Tamako is going to leave the shopping district. She loves it as much as it loves her. This episode wonderfully showcased that.

The prince's bride will be Choi. They even went through the trouble of confirming they are not related. I doubt this was just a throwaway line. As for the love triangle formed around Tamako, it will most likely remain unresolved. Neither her relationship with Midori nor Mochizou have progressed enough over the course of the show. And Tamako is still not interested in romance as far as I can see. It's all about mochi and the shopping district for her.

Even though her screentime was minimal this week, Kanna still managed to stand out. "Those are some nice support beams"...

You guys will never give up. That's not going to happen. I would be so saddened if Midori ended up with a guy as beta as him. I would be saddened if Midori ended up with a guy, period.

Go away with your heterosexual delusions!

Seriously. If she had to end up with a guy (and good lord I hope not, not with the kind of character development she's had), at least pick a different guy. Mochizou is such a goddamn herbivore. I doubt he can provide any "pleasures of a man"^

Well I'm still for Mochizou x Tamako!

GOD... WHY!? I'm not easily pissed off about beta male chars but jesus christ... Mochizou is pushing it far. It doesn't help that this felt so rushed at all. Something so obvious which was held up until this far. They better have a damn good reason for this prolonging it this far. Certainly.. I am not buying the circumstances presented at all. __________________ Last edited by rulfo; 2013-03-20 at 11:11.
