Thoughts: Nice to see something relaxing again, doesn’t strain my brain too much or screw around with my emotions. Unlike Code Geass’ wtf-ness which managed to turn my world upside down, or Death Note’s over complex plot, busting my brains just trying to figure out what is happening, Tokimeki was something light and humorous. Normally I would probably be complaining about how just like any harem shows, nothing happens but I will let it slip this time. In fact episode 14 Sayuri showed a little jealousy, nice to know she actually likes Riku. Yukari’s appearance made me value Sayuri a little more, since her actions are really bitchy. Ep 15 about Watatake sensei was also nice, giving a general perspective of what it’s like to be a teacher. Like any other job, teaching has it’s ups and downs. The way she decides to relief herself was with gaming, which I have to agree is a nice method; just that I do too much of it and get bad grades ^^;

Summary (14): A new blonde girl shows up at school, she is a new transfer student. While everyone stares at her beautifully, she was happy because she will once again be able to see Riku again. In class, everyone was crowding around a swimsuit magazine, the idol everyone was rather frenzy about was a girl named Yukari, who looked familiarly strange. When homeroom began, the sensei announced that there is a new transfer student, to everyone’s suprise it was Yukari from the magazine. All the boys were excited, since … well… they are boys. She smiles, and ran over to Riku and embraces him. The male members of the class were rather angry. At lunch, Yukari has prepared to “dine” with Riku under the big tree, the jealous mob of boys were staring with hatred.

The look on Riku’s face wasn’t overly joyed, in fact he looked rather afraid. Riku’s class mates were curious how he managed to meet such a cute girl. Yukari told her version of the story, but Riku disagreed and claims her version was a twisted version that contained very little truth. Yukari began to cry, Riku sighs and said she always pretends to cry when things doesn’t go her way. Making such a cute girl cry was apparently a crime and the mob demanded Riku’s apology. At that moment, Sayuri and her friends were walking pass, seconds after Yukari caught sight of Sayuri, her attitude changed and acted though she was trying to stop the fuss between the class and Riku. Excusing himself to the toilet, Riku tries to escape. Sitting in the cubical he was brainstorming methods of escaping her grasp, he suddenly hears a voice from outside. It was Doujima, he is willing to help him as a friend to free himself from her.

In attempt to escape, Yukari manages to notice Riku’s sneaky behavior. She throws a note book, which she was signing for the other boys, at Riku. Just before Riku was hit, Doujima catches the attack and he strikes back with his “final attack”. However he was defeated easily. Mina and Tsukasa appear and challenges her for Riku. Somehow Sayuri was dragged into this, but instead of competing against Yukari she was on her team, since she was picked to even the teams. After the swimming was volley ball, Yukari made sure Sayuri got the message, they were fighting for Yukari’s love for Riku and not hers. Sayuri stood there in shock, before she was about to say something Kurotokage sensei appears.

It turns out it was all a set up by Kurotokage sensei. She wanted Sayuri to witness some real acting. Apparently all of Yukari’s actions were acting, at the end of the episode Yukari wished Sayuri her best to make Riku her boyfriend, she also hinted that when she stops becoming a model she will also take action to make Riku her boyfriend.

Summary (15): The class is still unable to decide what they should do for the cultural festival. While the boys insist they wanted to run a maid cafe, the girls strongly disagree. As usual the classroom turned into a battlefield. Watake sensei questions herself as a teacher when she wasn’t able to keep them under control and she could only watch as Sayuri took control of the situation as the perfect student. In the staff room, she looks around her and around her was a few very unique teachers including a P.E staff member who swings a Kendo Sword around, a crazy scientist and a literature teacher who coughs so much he might as well be dead. A cup of coffee was offered to her while she was day dreaming, she wonders who it was. When she looked up she saw Matsuoka sensei, one of the few normal teachers in the school.

At night she was at a pub, drinking with the school nurse and another teacher. She asks the school nurse (Hoshino sensei) what was she like as a teacher, since she wanted to know what other people think of her. However, before she could answer the other teacher was already drunk, she was leaning onto the nurse and telling her how she loves to drink with other women.

Back at home, Watatake sensei was still depressed, to unwind herself from all the stress she starts playing an online community game. There she meets “sumio-san”, after talking to him she feels much better. Over the week her depression disappeared and was living a much brighter life. One day they got onto the topic about what sort of person she was, she told Sumio-san that she wasn’t a very confident woman. She also pointed out she knows someone that is always perfect. Of course she was thinking about Sayuri, but as soon as she typed that Sumio-san disconnected. She was worried if she had said something wrong. Again she started being depressed.

At school she saw Sayuri playing the same community game, Watatake starts to wonder if Sumio-san was Sayuri. The next day in class, she was still very gloomy but all the depression came to an end when she entered the class. The class wished her a happy birthday and gave her some flowers as a gift. Once again she was smiling, before the celebration she briefly asked Sayuri about the game and if she was Sumio-san. To her relief it she was only introduced recently by Matsuoka sensei and she wasn’t Sumio-san. The episode ends when we see Matsuoka sensei playing on the game as Sumio-san.
