Futakoi 09
The ending of one of my favorite mini-arcs, Souji and Sara spend some quality time with Nozomu before they’re shipped off to the military er… before they move to another place. The episode pretty much centers around Souji and Sara, the love they have for each other, and whatever budding feelings the two might have for Nozomu.
All that mattered in this episode, for me, is the Souji and Sara goodness. It was pretty cute seeing Sara being overly protective of Souji, looking out for Souji’s best interests. Especially everytime Sara would try to stop Nozomu from flirting with the various twins right in front of them 
Also seeing Sara’s scared side was pretty cute too (ghosts? who knew). Souji’s sisterly love for Sara also brought tears in my eyes as exemplify-ed by the whole pastel incident (lost color, Nozomu and the crew going garbage diving, etc). Nice to see such deep sisterly love for each other!
Tis very sad that the two sisters only showed up in this and the previous episodes, as I thought they had a lot of potential (i.e. Souji moe-ness and Sara’s “tough” exterior) and could have been expanded more. Oh well. Pretty much after this episode, Futakoi finally gets serious as it’s crunch time for Nozomu to sort out his feelings and decide which twins he really wants. Is it the Sakurazuki twins whom confessed their love for him and are currently showering Nozomu with gifts? Or is it the Ichijou sisters whom have been his childhood friends and apparently, each have feelings for the others?
