Kimi to Boku Episode 3


two new characters are in the frame. the chibi freshman from the second episode seems to have a thing for shun and there is a new transfer student, Chizuru, who apparently remebers Yuki (or Yuta?) but they don't remember him. Chizuru takes being forgotten kind of hard (he had lived overseas for a time).

ah, young love.

In one of the flashbacks, it turns out Chizuru is German. or speaks German at least "los, spiel mit mir" means "c'mon, play with me." (and the German is pretty bad...) And it was Yuki that he played with. The pieces do finally come together.

sage.

I shouldn't like this show. Nothing about it implies that i would, but i do. Yuki and Yuta's deadpan humor grows on you. And now that the antics don't feel pointless and boring like in the first ep, I think I will keep this in my watch list for the season.

One little narrative glitch: wouldn't something like, "i only spoke German back then" have cleared up matters?
