Episode 85: Kurumi’s Cruelty (Kimi Ni Todoke 10-12)

Podcast

Feb 2

In this episode of Shoujo Sundae, Chika and Giana review episodes ten through twelve of Kimi Ni Todoke! In episode ten, we learn about Chizuru’s and Kurumi’s experience in middle school together, when Kurumi manipulated Chizuru into “helping” the other girls in their class confess their love to Kazehaya. Kurumi continues to be friendly with Sawako and eventually confides in her that she has feelings for Kazehaya. In episode eleven, Sawako declines to help Kurumi pursue Kazehaya. Kurumi tries to convince Sawako that her feelings for Kazehaya aren’t special, and urges her to speak more with Ryuu after he saves her from a rogue softball pitch. In episode twelve, Kurumi schemes to set up Sawako and Ryuu, but the two end up strengthening their bond in friendship, not romance. Ryuu confides in Sawako about some secret feelings he has.
