Chifuyu doesn’t want a baka onna as a sister-in-law. You really ought to lay off on the pointless yandere antics though, Laura. Honestly I would have put my money on Laura, who if Tatenasi didn’t beat her to the punch would probably be Ichika’s partner now. They know that at least five girls are angling for Ichika (and if you add in Tatenashi and, you know, the rest of the student body, the number shoots higher), but they all assume Ichika is going to pick them? Even had Tatenashi not thrown a wrench in things I don’t even think current favorite Houki should have expected to get the nod. It’s not just Houki, but all these girls are delusional. What high schooler falls asleep that quickly while being carried on he crush’s back? Mind the details, storytellers.
One gripe though: her suddenly falling asleep and basically sleep-confessing to Ichika? So convenient. Not a bad choice, even if he’s passing up the frankly superior Char (fight me, other ships!!). It’s hard to escape the fact that Ichika seems to prefer Houki though. I don’t hate her – she’s very cute when she goes into deredere mode, and I love how strong she is – I just prefer Char myself. Now this may surprise you, but Houki being ahead actually doesn’t annoy me. He gets flustered by the ecchi, sure, but it never feels romantic unless it’s with Houki. Maybe this is just Friday margaritas talking, but I don’t remember Ichika ever reacting to any girl – no, not even Char or Laura, though Char comes closest – as much as he does with Houki. No worries if no one gets it, it’s a bit obscure). (Bonus points for whoever guesses the manga I stole that line from. What the photo shoot drove home to me is that Ichika really only reacts to Houki. Ichika wants to protect his nakama, and she mentally inserts her own name? Of course he does mean her as well, but you’re getting ahead of yourself, Houki-chan. Better yet was how thoroughly delusional she was. A maiden in love, eh? (Though Golden Time proves this can cut both ways). I enjoyed how quickly she abandoned her supposed principles – though I think it was more of being embarrassed, not seeing the point, and not giving a fuck – in order to get a daito with Ichika. Oh Houki, your principles are so flexible. Houki is deredere, Madoka is angry, and Sarashiki imouto is finally here.
