I'm totally down with that lmao. Kyo, Yuki, and Haru can all be the collective Mako. "Our exes are dating..."

2021-11-11 23:11:29 +0000 UTCTohru seemed quite impressed by Rin's....*cough*....features. Maybe this is the start of Rin and Tohru ship where they end up together at the end of the show, pulling a full on Korrasami 2.0

2021-11-11 19:23:27 +0000 UTCAh right mixed up the days (happens more and more working from home) just knew we've missed a MHA now.

2021-11-11 16:46:06 +0000 UTCWhy would we get 2 MHA? Thursdays are always Fruits Basket.

2021-11-11 16:44:39 +0000 UTCMaybe 2 MHA today?

2021-11-11 14:40:40 +0000 UTCVery non important part of the episode but i love how much Hatori cares about Tohru! I get a big brother vibe from him and i think its really sweet🥺

2021-11-11 13:42:53 +0000 UTCi just woke up but what a good episode, i'm especially excited for like the net 3, they're all some of my favs in season 2!

2021-11-11 12:04:05 +0000 UTCYeah in the subbed version I watched he said that he was the ox, a laughingstock. Something along those lines (Note: I'm not trying to start a conversation on dub vs sub since that's been done to death already, just noting some differences. I like both versions)
Nick
2021-11-11 11:41:36 +0000 UTCIdk if I'm remembering right from the manga, but Akito's words to Haru seemed more condescending... along the lines of" you always say the dumbest things" and "it's because you're like this that you're a laughing stock." Also sentient sheet is a lucky piece of sheet.

2021-11-11 10:58:45 +0000 UTCSomething that's not really relevant to everything that's being built up rn that I love anyway is Kyo bringing the hermit crab to Tohru. Very much like a cat bringing "presents" to their human.

2021-11-11 07:52:51 +0000 UTCIf I'm right and she was breaking up with Haru to protect him and herself, I can't imagine what it would be like to be sitting in that hospital with whatever Akito has inflicted on her be it mentally or physically, and then have people she cares about come visit. It must be a reminder from Akito to stay quiet or they'll get it too. Just awful, knowing that by sheer association to you anyone can be hurt. Just like what happened with Hatori's relationship I would probably start pushing people away too, especially if it was my boyfriend who is closer than anyone to the zodiacs as well (Haru). The whole hypothetical gives me big parallels to Kyo in season 1 wanting to push Tohru away.
Nick
2021-11-11 07:50:53 +0000 UTCAhaha I see so I guess she just ran the final stretch
Alex G
2021-11-11 07:48:05 +0000 UTCShe's been in the hospital, maybe Akito did something to her? I get the feeling that her situation is also similar to Kyo's (at least last season) where the tactic is to bury your feelings and pursue a goal. Edit: She also didn't seem happy to be meeting with Shigure. More like a "this is the last option" type of feel. Explains why earlier in the show she mentioned how "Gure" is the only option. Something along those lines.
Nick
2021-11-11 07:41:53 +0000 UTCYeah and I got the impression she broke up with Haru to create distance. Maybe she genuinely wanted to break things off, but for now I don't buy it. The way she told him to get lost and she was sick of him was too cruel. If I had to guess, it's a similar situation to Hiro and Kisa or Hatori's situation, where Akito found out in some capacity and Rin broke things off to avoid major repercussions? Either that, or Rin is planning some sort of move against Akito (hence why she met with the schemer himself, Shigure) and doesn't want anyone else caught in the crossfire. That would explain why she doesn't want Yuki or Tohru to mention her presence
Nick
2021-11-11 07:40:54 +0000 UTCThat's her secret, she's actually the Train zodiac. Unofficial member of the Soma clan, can turn into a train and a horse.
Nick
2021-11-11 07:37:14 +0000 UTCRin’s anger and threatening remarks and this episode seems more like panic, desperation. and fear. She clearly has her own agenda and it’s causing her a lot of stress. I’m excited for you to see more of her and her motivations On a lighter topic, Tohru’s initial reaction to Rin always cracks me up.

2021-11-11 07:34:41 +0000 UTCOk so in the OP we see Rin in train and scenery passing by...which means she didn't really walk all the way there...😅😅
raesh
2021-11-11 07:27:28 +0000 UTCAlso, really noticing that Kyo has a big upper hand over Yuki in terms of I guess winning Tohru over if that's what we're calling it. Kyo and Tohru have been kind of inseparable ever since the finale of season 1, that was a huge moment for both of them. Yuki is sort of playing catch up in some ways but he's also arrived at a much healthier place. I'll have more to say (maybe) after finishing the video. I'm about halfway through The above/first comment was written before this video dropped, basically my immediate thoughts after finishing the episode myself
Nick
2021-11-11 07:08:25 +0000 UTCYuki was definitely warning Kyo to not blow up at Akito out of concern. He does care about Kyo even if he won't admit it. They're like brothers in many ways. Even though it felt out of place at first to me, I definitely think he said that because he cares about Kyo. Or maybe because he recognizes Kyo is important to Tohru. What reinforces this for me even further is when Akito is walking with Kureno and Kureno says she won't be alone because "she's with Kyo." To which Akito calls him (Kyo) a monster. I really hope by the end of the series Kyo and Yuki will have gotten past all of their drama, and just become able to confide in each other as victims of Akito's manipulation. Kyo and Yuki becoming friendly is one thing that I think would drastically damage Akito, throw the entire zodiac order out of balance. It would be a glaring weak spot in his armor that the status quo is shifted. The way to beat Akito is to get over the mind games and rise above it. The entire reason Kyo and Yuki even 'hate' each other is fabricated by them being zodiac members to begin with. And it's clear there's a level of strictness Akito goes to to keep everyone in line. Literally keeping people like Yuki and Kureno in dark rooms and crushing down on their self esteem until they're just clay for him to mold. What a brilliant story though for real. My number one wish is for Kyo and Yuki to reconcile, romance love triangle aside. Second place would be for Tohru and Kyo to get together. Also, I think now that part of the reason Kyo was bummed at the anniversary thing for Tohru's mom was because he was thinking about his own mom. I forget what he asked specifically, but he asked Hana about sensing the waves of the dead I think? My guess is the entire event had him thinking of his mom, and this burden he feels attached to regarding her death. Maybe a mix of both his mom and Tohru? Having seen the next episode, I'll have more to say regarding some of the stuff mentioned here

2021-11-11 07:06:51 +0000 UTCMHA is also coming but it's going to be a good while. Apologies again for the many delays
