@IKnight
I take it you have been practicing.

@Shin
Ah well Naoki will break come college…then his tune will change.

@Impz
Use can be made out of the dumb and the lazy. Even if Kotoko is stupid we still love her yes?

@Zanshun
This faster pace makes me happy since, rabu rabu Naoki isn’t brought forth until later in the story.

Kin-chan has no luck in love, at least when it comes to Kotoko. Hopefully Jink will have no more reasons to shout.

Honestly… Naoki is an ass. Apart from not having any presents (probably even to his parents), he makes fun of the gifts. I know that Kotoko gave him a… very interesting present (since my grandmother has one for her arthritis) and the doll was just FUGLY, but he could have shown some appreciation. And Kotoko should have just told him that if he was being a jackass because he’s so fatigued, the gift could actually help improve his personality.

Kotoko is too cute, its the main reason I been keeping up with this show. Naoki is really annoying and Jinko might have a worse voice then Aoi Oribe WITHOUT the body. It seems the anime is on a faster pace overall as it lets you see more into Naoki’s slowly changing feelings whereas hes always a stone faced wall in the manga. Thats a good thing because I’ve been reading whats been translated so far in the manga and geez, 7 volumes later and hes still such a douche. I’ve come to appreciate the animation more after seeing how dated the manga art looks and Kotoko comes out much cuter and even Naoki comes out a little less lame, though oddly enough Kin-chan looks exactly the same, guess Kansai people can’t get any love.

Sometimes, I really think that Kotoko and her gang needs to be shot dead. I really like the Kotoko x Tsunderella pairing. However, their stupidity turns me off and the fact that I hate to deal with ridiculously stupid people (I am somewhat like Naoki in that manner) makes it hard for me to empathize with them.

Other than that stubborn and silly point of mine, I must say that Itazura no kiss has brought a smile to my face. There are a lot of scenes that make me laugh out loud while I watch it with my girlfriend. I particularly like the ending scene where Naoki simply says the stuff.

The smile by Naoki from Kotoko’s gift is priceless too.

At first I was like ( ´∀`) when Naoki snuggled up to Kotoko. Then I (╬ ಠ益ಠ) when he teased her.

The ability to whisper in someone’s ear while simultaneously nibbling on it is the primary reason to learn to talk with your mouth full. Or something.
