You know I almost suffered a heart attack whilst watching the second episode, development between two character's gets so damn rare in anime these days that when it happens it gives my body a bit of a shock.
Hehe, I definitely agree with you there. I was quite surprised by the way that this episode turned out. I was so glad that Junichi was only moping around for part of the episode, and that things did not get awkward with Haruka. I guess it couldn't have gotten that way because, as I stated previously, Haruka's personality is like water, easy going, and changing with the tide. It also associates with her changing opinions of what she likes in a man, and the reason why she always changes clubs. I guess she's kind of like myself, with her curious nature and love of cute things.
I also laughed quite a bit during this episode, especially when Haruka wanted to wrestle Junichi, and when Hibiki told Haruka that it was sexual harassment to watch the girls swimming. I really wished that she got the opportunity to wrestle, but Hibiki is so strict! I guess you have to be a little bit With Haruka, or else she could get into all kinds of trouble.
I also thought that the ending of this episode was very sweet, with Haruka gently kissing his eyebrows, and Junichi clearly not giving up on her. I think she really does like that determination in Junichi, because he is different than the other men that have asked her out before, and that's why I believe that she will give him a second chance.
Looks like next week we'll get into why Miya's so jealous of Haruka, so that should be interesting.

All in all keep up the good pace and characters, really enjoying this series so far and hopefully it'll give me the same satisfaction as clannad did (relationships wise.)
I'm hoping the same! Clannad's my favorite series, so I'm hoping for something along those lines as well!
