If he had had the balls to ask her out at some point, sure, but he doesn't owe her a detailed briefing on his conversations with the other girl he never had the balls to ask out.

It's not a matter of owing Fuuka an explanation. It's just effing weird. If somebody says to you, hey I bumped into your friend and shared a bath with her, the normal, human response is, yeah, I saw her recently too, she invited me to a concert. Starting to mumble something and then not being able to actually say it BECAUSE SOMEBODY HAS CROSSED A ROAD is just pathetic beyond belief. Seriously, this guy needs counselling.

Well it was kind of messed up that Koyuki did that without really thinking and he got all that hate. The internet can be filled with horrible people at times, like the group that seems to have decided to harass him.

I would not go out of the way to blame Fuuka for being hostile to him, I do think it is also not fair to call him weak willed or something for not telling her. Things can be hard for socially awkward people like him. Towards the end though it seems her thoughts are on how she kind of made a promise without knowing to help Koyuki get him.

Episode 8:

I guess they come from an alternate universe where attacking people with bottles (potentially causing serious injury) and trampling women in schools is just one of those things that happens, no need to call the police. And where an angry mob of Koyuki fans who came looking for violence (and who seem way too good-looking to be this obsessed with a singer like her) can change attitude on a dime, instantly and without exception, by an amateur cover band playing a completely different kind of music. And where background singers just kind of materialize even if there aren't any people to do the singing. And where, once everyone stops attacking the women on the floor, they just stand there instead of trying to make their escape. And where...

It's like an alien wrote this stuff. "I've seen books about human behavior, I'm sure I can approximate it pretty well."

Yeah, that whole scene was weird on just about every level. But hey, at least Numbnuts got clocked with a beer bottle, so I give it props for that.

By the way, has anybody ever said to Tama-chan: "I can't help notice that you have red eyes ... are those just contacts or are you actually a demon born from the fiery flames of Hell?"

I'm sure everyone just assumes. If being mugged leads people to fall for their muggers in this world, I doubt a little infernal heritage bothers anyone.

You are quite the lady killer.
OMG. You can't just ask people why they're eyes are demonic.

Anyway, yeah, that whole concert situation was weird. Sure as hell that the guy threw the bottle should have been arrested, I imagine one person streaming events would have gotten evidence. As it stands, I imagine the school could be sued (if in another country at least) for such poor security in allowing a guy with a bunch of beer bottles onto its grounds, and not having someone deal with the situations. And it being a surprise is not an excuse because their was pretty much warning of it over social network, to the point that I think a police presence should have been called in beforehand. When running events there is a little thing called risk assessments. That guy should not have been allowed to just enjoy the performance while I think our main character faced destruction of property, and the possibility of stiches.

And that does not even go into the trampling and other assault charges that could be put to other guys in the audience. Sounds like a bit of a nightmare that would not have just been a everything gets back to normal situation, somehow solved by the power of an amateur cover band.

So the drama lama love triangle is finally kicking in. Well, it's up to the MC to make things right by sitting the two gals down and patiently explaining, "Ladies, ladies ... there's enough of my fineness to go around, mmmkay? So ditch those duds and les' get bizzy..."

And if the world was just, the two girls would look at him, look at each other, and say "what were we thinking, it's lesbian makeout time. Go home and practice moping or something."

Your blatant attempt to get me to argue against your point has failed miserably.
