Ai-chan holding a black kitty is love!
And so, today’s episode is the beginning of Ai Nanasaki’s arc.
As you may know, Ai-chan (voiced by Yukana) is a hardworking student who is a member of the swimming team. She does volunteer work and can do household chores.
Of course, Junichi-kun met Ai-chan by accident during Christmas, and then at the park when she jumped from a swing. Ai-chan is a cold character who accuses him as a pervert early on, but she became more loving when Ai-chan befriend Junichi on this episode! Wow, that was fast…
Anyway, if my memory serves correctly, I predict that the next episode involves Nanasaki’s swimwear… (She’s wearing it underneath her uniform)
Has anyone else noticed that Junuichi is more and more self confident in each successive iteration? I mean, in the first one, he was essentially a wreck with no hope of ever finding love, but by the time we got to Sae he was putting himself forward with a girl with essentially no anxiety at all right from the beginning.
Yeah, I kinda missed that!
But it seems that Junichi would become a fine ladies’ man as the series progresses…
