Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien Episode 07

I'm not sure if Mitsuki says anything other than, "I'm sorry" in this episode.

This is one of those episodes where the main character does one wrong thing after another, while the audience is screaming at him to not be a moron. (It can be argued that the whole show is sort of like this with Narumi.) Either way, Narumi's feelings are obviously going all over the place, as he continues to indulge himself by visiting Haruka in the hospital, neglecting his girlfriend (who is becoming more and more depressed).

At this point, I'm not even sure which pairing I'm cheering for. Clearly I should be sympathetic to Mitsuki, who is basically being cheated on for Haruka, but Mitsuki's so passive aggressive I find it hard to really want her to come out on top. Of the relationship!

On the other hand, you can't really support Haruka either, because she basically has no clue what's going on, other than that her boyfriend is acting weirder and weirder (and seems to be growing less fond of her).

Either way, Mitsuki resolves (for the moment), the living situation problem that has been weighing on her and Takayuki by moving in with him. Of course, they still haven't talked about it, so you might say that they're still just as screwed up as before.

Rating: B+
