Kita ze Inbou! - キタぜ陰謀!

[ Episode 4 ]

I suppose the one thing Sousuke can’t beat into Michiru is common sense. ~_~

I have to say that it was pretty scary watching Ruka and the others keep their guards up against Sousuke finding out where they lived. Being stalked isn’t a pleasant thing so I can only imagine how Ruka felt while being followed by that creep. I think it’s pretty clear by now though that Sousuke’s obsession has hit critical mass long ago. This dude tried pretty much everything to find Michiru, even going as far as to use her own mother to try and trick her into meeting up with him. It’s a good thing that Ruka went her in place though. I figured he’d be hiding somewhere especially after it seemed like Ruka was a bit spooked when she looked inside. I think he’s madness was shown at a new level though at the very end of the episode when Michiru found the guy sitting out in the rain. He was there ALL NIGHT in the freaking rain. I can understand waiting around for a while but staying around that place for so long in no shelter and with no umbrella is like asking for a funeral. Pneumonia is nothing to play around with and it looks like he might just be diagnosed with that in the next episode. Or at least be really sick anyway but from what the preview suggests he’ll be up to the same all abusive nonsense in no time. I can’t recall how many times I face-palmed in reaction to Michiru’s thoughts about this guy and the end of the episode only further baffled me in regards to her common sense and intelligence. I suppose I’ll never be able understand what keeps women like her going back to their abusive boyfriends.

As for the other characters, the only one I really want to point out is Takeru. It looks like his sister might just be that woman who called him. Haha. It’s going to be interesting to see how his backstory turns out but I have a feeling they’re going to prolong getting to the point with that for a few episodes.
