    I'm still pissed though. My heart isn't settled yet. *sigh* I need to replenish my Yukino dose.

    just for say
    I asked the sommelier for the label of the wine Onii-sama was drinking. I'd been collecting wine labels that my family had enjoyed. When I'm 20, and if hadn't been brought down, I would taste every bottle that Onii-sama had enjoyed. He said that the company was doing well, so I can gulp down expensive wines, soon. In my past life, sour mixes at a pub where about all I had drunk. I can't wait! I wasn't very strong against alcohol in my past, but I feel different this time!
    I thibk that Reika is going to become a drunk in the future... her love and crush is going to be alcoholic drinks, cheating her lover food-chan.... hahaha
    jokes aside see in the last chapter of translation in famfic.net and i fall with this

    "So Reika, how are things with Masaya-kun of the Kaburagi's recently?"
    Gasp! The duck got stuck in my throat! I can't expose this shame in public. I manage to force it down.
    "Reika, are you all right?"
    "…Yes, Onii-sama." As expected of him… Getting to the heart of the matter when your opponent is drawing her breath… I'm left shaken.
    "Recently...? Nothing much."
    "Really? The two of you looked like you were having a good time at the cherry blossom viewing the other day."
    He noticed… But we did not have a good time. "We spoke, but we don't really get along or not get along…" I didn't do anything wrong, but I feel bad. I pretend that I'm busy eating, and look away from Onii-sama.
    "I see..." said Onii-sama, seemingly convinced. "So what about Shuusuke-kun of the Enjou family?"
    Gasp! "…Same as above…" Give me a break… I'd rather not talk about him even more…
    "I saw him with a pretty woman at the cherry blossom viewing, but do you know her?"
    "I heard that she was a relative…"
    "Oh, a relative?" He smiled meaningfully. Huh? What…? "Well, if you need anything, let me know."
    "Yes, Onii-sama," nodding meekly.
    "I'm worried since you're hiding so much recently."
    "Eh…?!" I looked up and he smiled at me. How much does Onii-sama know?
    WHAT, in the part who reika think that enjou is worst, LoL jaja and the meaning of the last part of his brother, onii-chan tell us what you know.... we want to know... there is a chapter with other view of onii-chan??

    As an Enjou/Reika shipper, I'm at the point where I don't know if I'm just desperately hoping or....

    Also for some reason I feel extremely happy every time Reika mentions calling/messaging her friends. Congratulations on having a social life! Plus it's a nice change from socially isolated heroines.

    hmm, I think I'll wait for the next few chapters first. After all, at the end of the latest chapter, Reika is weak as a kitten and needs Enjou's help just to get to the locker room / car, he might decide to escort Reika home or something and let something slip then :p Personally, I think that we've seen more of Enjou in the last year or so than we had for basically all of the previous years in school, but we haven't seen much of an increase in Mizusaki (other than mentions of him with Wakaba-chan...), so just based on time spent together Enjou is the more likely candidate for who winds up with Reika for me...

    *scratches head*
    ...but why are you getting so worked up over an unconfirmed (and imo *really unlikely*) theory?

    It really doesn't make sense for Enjou to use Reika like that. Again, he doesn't need to (Yuiko is all over him already) and as seikyo mentioned, he approaches Reika all the time - not just when Yuiko or Katsuragi is around. If nothing else, I'm 100% sure Enjou values Reika as a friend - using her like that would be a dick move even for him I think.

    Huh. Can't believe I just defended Haraguro Enjou. But shadiness aside, I still think he's a good guy overall (wouldn't ship him with Reika-sama otherwise)! :p
    Yep, this is basically why I think even *Bakaburagi* has a higher chance with Reika than Comrade Stalking Horse (and mind you, I say this with MUCH reluctance). I did get my hopes up when they were working together to protect Wakaba...but then their interactions went back to near zero.

    Plus, it's subtle, but did you guys notice that Reika never really goes starry-eyed over Comrade Stalking Horse like she does with Kaburagi and Enjou? She described him as handsome, and right now I'm sure her opinion of him is much higher than what she thinks of the Troublesome Duo, but as for heart throbbing moments go...nada (Stalking-Horse-zoned?). This doesn't necessarily mean anything of course - Reika falls in love relatively easily - if Comrade Stalking Horse were to confess I'm sure she'll fall for him...but...they'd have to interact more first...and...we're still not sure Comrade Stalking Horse *doesn't* like Wakaba like that...

    So yeah, right now I agree that Enjou/Reika is still more likely.

    I believe so too. I think with Enjoy there is going to be an underlying story that will explain his behaviour towards Yuiko, might be his parents or an illness she had that reminds him his brother etc. I think Enjoy is going with the flow right now and like every second male lead he will realize the depth of his emotions when it's too late.

    honestly with all that enjou's put us through with his scheming and teasing of Reika i want him to suffer a little. The reason why enjou can't really reject yuiko better be a good one or i'm gonna flip my (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ . If not then i want him to watch mizusaki get closer to reika as he's stalling and dealing with yuiko.

    Not THAT is a scenario I can get behind! :D :D :D I want this even if his reasons were good. A little vinegar doesn't hurt anyone right?
    Pray September will come faster.

    Thanks busyoldfool for protecting my ship !
    Hmm.. ? Isn't it a bit excessive as a regular Forever Alone village's chief wrath ? Can I interpret it as you being jealous, Reika ? Yaay~
    (copy-pasted from Evelyn Guz's message, sorry I don't know how to quote something from another page)
    Onii-sama investigating what is Reika's love interest ! And even investigating wheter or not Reika's potential love interest may cheat ! You incurable siscon ! I like you !
    on another note, Reika ended up with Serika and Kikuno and Satomi and Tagaki-kun. Tagaki-kun is dying of fear niahahaha, and I think Satomi-kun can't fool around too much this time
    Ah ! This is depressing... We can only count on Enjou to prevent KabuRei from happening..
    And yeah, she think of him as Forever Alone village vice-chief..
    Already done. When Mizusaki and Reika were working to protect Wakaba together (and got many cute flags), and Enjou and Reika and Kaburagi were discussing which film to watch with Wakaba, Enjou heavily hinted about spies's tragic deaths, (being friendly with the Stuco while being a pivoine), and Reika got more careful with her interaction with her comrade stalking horse then. Damn, Enjou getting jealous aren't satisfying enough from Reika's POV...

    Yeah...one of the reason why my main shipping is still Reinjou.... But it is not enough... I need him more jealous and jealous and get burn in the jealousy fire before he can get Reika's heart (if they got to be a pair). But sadly until the latest raws, it didn't satisfied my need... Hopefully, there is Enjou POV with how much envy he is from Reika's crushes or her closeness with Mizusaki (or maybe Kaburagi)...

    (Please author, make my wish comes true)

    Does Imari's younger brother ever make an appearance? He was mentioned briefly in one of the chapters and I would think the author would introduce him at some point.

    It's called preparation! I so love EnjouxReika ship that what Enjou is doing now by testing the waters time and time again has become (for a lack of a better word) annoying.

    Or it could be that my hormones are on strike again. Which could explain the annoyance. Mah...whatever.

    I'm a bit worried as a human with an eternal "second male lead syndrome " I'm just worried that Enjou (Mizusaki second favorite then Imari * I'm straying from the main point*:sweating_profusely:) will be second male lead since he's the person I'm shipping.... I hope it's not ,I hope it's not ,I hope it's not :sweating_profusely::blobfearful:.....please author let this be one of the rare stories were the male lead is the one that I love most....:cry::cry::cry:

    No...not so far. He was mentioned twice in total - both times in a throwaway comment - but considering we don't even know his *name*, he might not ever show up...
    Fair enough. XD
    I have a pretty good record on predicting end game pairings so maybe my luck will balance yours (shounen mangas do not count)? :D :D :D
    Here's a cute fanart to cheer up Enjou/Reika shippers? I think the artist got their expressions down pat.

    Pretty odd. I feel like this author has used every character they've mentioned, so hopefully Imari's brother makes a cameo. Otherwise, the author could've just made Imari an only child or not brought up the brother at all.

    IMO, there are 2 reasons for Yuiko and Enjou to appear to be together (except if they are really together):

    1) This can be the case of two black bellies getting together (or in this case, pretending to be together) to avoid others aiming for them (or using each other as get-away-quick cards in case of social events).

    2) Yuiko could be like Reika and simply appears to be scary while all she wants are friends. Enjou, the schemer notices it and makes a plan. Yuiko gets a friend and Enjou gets a 'bug' repellent. That's why Yuiko sticks to Enjou. Coz he's her only friend. And she gives Enjou courtesy chocolates on valentines day and Enjou gives her a return gift on white day to make up pretenses. They occasionally go out on 'dates' so she can go on outings with her friend while for Enjou it is so he can affirm her status as 'bug repellent'.
    In this case, it'd be nice if both Reika and Yuiko become friends and make a so-scary-that-ppl-admire-from-afar duo and make a how-to-make-friends (Oujou-sama version) club (lol, Reika will be Yuiko's teacher).

    In both cases, Enjoy can persue Reika without backlash~
