Special A - 15

AND THE PLOT FINALLY THICKENS.

Correct me if I’m wrong but I coulda sworn that in the manga, Sakura actually LIKED Kei rather than wanting to marry him because of the family company inheritance crap. Also they seem to be moving quite fast because now Sakura has switched over to liking Jun like in one episode.

And next week it looks like the Jun x Sakura pairing is gonna probably get solidified or something. Dang I guess they’re really trying to fly through the manga. That’s always a good thing, at least the Kei x Hikari clock has finally begun ticking.

Ah, new characters. Always fun, unless they sound like cats.
Hikari & Kei are my main reasons for loving this show. I actually prefer eps that focus on them, but I like all the usual suspects as well. Tadashi (sp?) is grew on me exceptionally after episode 14.
If the manga is still running, and this show doesn’t feel like it’s got Naruto running power, I wonder how the heck will they end it?
Few anime have me anticipating the next one, so I’m glad you pointed me to this one.
It’s been a great ride so far.
Finally things are moving along. Even if they move too fast to even offer an explanation of what’s happening.
And finally dumb Hikari is “noticing” Kei’s feelings even if she’s still too dumb, or innocent?, to understand them. o_O
On a totally unrelated note:
Yay, I’m one of the top 10 babblers.
I haven’t watched the episode yet, but I don’t think Sakura liked Kei. At least from the translation I read. She said she’d either marry someone good for her father’s business or her “perfect guy” and her perfect guy ends up being Jun. If what I read was right anyway.
That aside…I’ve been waiting for this episode! The anime seems to be moving even slower than the manga did at first.
Yay sakura made it into the anime

umm yea in the manga she doesn’t like kei
like what FuyuMaiden said
If Hikari is noticing Kei’s feelings at this point then they’re moving along /way/ faster than the manga. At this point in the manga Hikari still couldn’t even figure out her own feelings when in the middle of acting on them, let alone puzzle through the actions of another.
And yeah, in the manga Sakura thought of Kei as a ‘tyrant’ or somesuch. She didn’t like him, but he fit the ‘good for the family business’ option of her marriage checklist.
All the pairings are starting to fall together like dominoes. Special A must be one of your favorite manga of all time…
LOL well I did enjoy it John but you know my favorite manga right now is Soul Eater
Despite what you may think I think my favorite manga was Violinist of Hameln, it had gags AND romance! What more can you ask for!
actually in the manga she just had to marry him for the sakes of her family and instead wanted a prince like character.
and is it me or does Jun look really perverted in that picture
.
Blood and violence… no wait it had that too
