| Arima doesn't hit Yukino here; he's just shutting her out. |
TV Tokyo
October 16, 1998
Anime, Romance
DVD
B
Although much of this episode is still from Yukino's perspective, we do get insight into Arima. Now that he's starting to open up and be his real self with Yukino, he's recalling memories of his real parents' physical abuse. His "current parents" are his aunt and uncle (voiced by Bill Rogers and Kristen Nelson), loving but a little formal. Arima likes the relaxed yet crazy atmosphere of the Miyazawa household. I considered going with a B+, for the handling of darker, heavier issues, but then Yukino punched Arima in the face just to get a reaction out of him, yes, in a cartoony way but still. The episode ends with Arima re-confessing his love.
