Episode 4

Takeru and Erika are hilarious. I really liked seeing them both to the different things, and I assume is probably why Kyoya actually kind of friends with them both, they are the types to make idiots of them selves. Some good comedy, I can think of a highlight where she said her friend also was pained in looking at her.

It was pretty obvious that spoiler[Takeru was trying to help her get tips to appeal to him, although the muscles thing may have made it look like it was him]. And that is another thing, the muscles, the spoiler[school festival thing] was also great. If there was not enough of Takeru with his shirt open, we also got spoiler[him in a maid uniform].

I might recommend this to my sister now.

spoiler[Looks like Kyouya is changing, just really slowly..
He really likes to mess with Erika LOL
Kyouya's friend Takeru makes an appearance.
He doesn't seem have bad either.
Well, that was one unusual alliance..
All their ideas backfired instantly.
Kyouya seems to be immune to all the normal stuff.
Guess Takeru - Erika plans were too transparent for Kyouya.
Still, a nice ending for this episode ^^]

Nice boat. Very Happy

I liked how Takeru subtly slipped in the spoiler[muscle pics and choice of favorite muscle] to "disguise" what he was doing...or was that why he did that? Hmmmm.

Ah, so that's the spoiler[real "collar" he was trying to get for Erika on Christmas. Cute. Anyways, that was probably one Christmas she won't be forgetting for a long time.]

spoiler[Erika jealous of other people's relationships.
Guess she wants a more normal relationship herself.
Sata sure is a complicated guy..
Still, he is coming around painfully slow.
That selfie was totally cute ^^
Wft? He actually confessed his feelings!
No way! I thought he'd keep messing with her until the very end.
Of course it was all a big act.
He SO deserved what he got, cruel bastard.
I can't believe he actually went to her house & gave her a present.
They have such a weird relationship..]

He should just give her some Gor novels for Christmas and she'd be over the moon.

Episode 5

I knew it was spoiler[out of character for him to act so intimate], and yes it was spoiler[an act]. In that moment he spoiler[was a bastard], he might have trauma but spoiler[messing with her feelings like that was too cruel]. I think what we got from that was that spoiler[he sucks at expressing himself, which mixed with his jaded outlook made him act like a douche]. He probably was telling the spoiler[truth that he likes spending time with her and would not have done so if he disliked her].

What he did at the end spoiler[kind of made up for it, but he can't be allowed to do that again,] or she runs the risk of apparently being in an abusive relationship where she is treated like crap only to forgive him when he shows a little kindness.

This is more of a S&M type of relationship. It doesn't really cross the line of abuse, at least not yet. Erika knows exactly what she's getting into with him, and she's actually enjoying it despite herself.

If ANN had a poll option for forums here is the poll I would put up.

Which of the following statements is the most true?

1. Erika deserves every painful thing that happens to her because she has insisted on building her own situation on a bed of totally unnecessary lies.

2. Kyoya can mimic being in love with Erika so well because at some level it is really true even if he is not aware of it so Erika is justified in pursuing him even on this insane basis.

If anyone would care to answer for real I wouldn't mind.

@HaruhiToy the second one is more sound.

I'm not sure why we're given two choices that aren't really even related to each other.

IMO they're both attracted not only to each other, but to the entire fake/real relationship they're in. I see two people in a situation they're supposed to feel uncomfortable in that seem pretty attached to it.

Not big on this episode. What Kyouya pulled really pissed me off, but I was more upset by spoiler[how easily she forgave him]. I'm not happy to see spoiler[Erika losing her spark, she's become too docile too soon]. I was also uncomfortable with the underlying message spoiler["It's okay to treat a girl like shit, just give her a nice bling bling and she'll come crying back to you"]. I know it was supposed to look like Kyouya apologizing in his twisted version of how the world goes, but it was very frustrating to see spoiler[her give in so easily]

Heh, it's funny seeing a jealous spoiler[Kyoya. That kinda bought out the funny part of this episode. I mean, "hot water bottle"?]
