I never thought a sharpened pencil could have the same energy as the rooftop confession from Toradora, but here we are. Ichikawas choice in the latest episode completely flipped the script on what I expected, pushing the limits of how messed up yet real these school crushes can get. Meanwhile, Yamada tripping in the hallway right afterward was so on brand and weirdly made everything feel more human. If this keeps up, high school romance anime might finally start tackling the real darkness under the fluff. Maybe this series is building toward something deeper about how obsession and love overlap. could this be the beginning of a new subgenre? Waiting for the next episode feels like holding my breath before a surprise pop quiz—anyone else have wild ideas or favorite moments so far?
