    Did she just get friend zoned?

      “You’re easy to talk to” does not imply friendzoning to me. It means the two of them mesh well with each other, now they just need to realise it. It’s quite possible Hrioshi and Shawna will sort things out, hang out all day, and both think that it was really really awkward. Or the awkwardness will make them go hang out with the others again halfway through even.

      Poor Castela, at least her heart is in the right place. *sigh*

        She knows, what she had done. All the way. Fixed a problem, what could grew worse, if left unattended. Neither of them was able to “claim” him as their boyfriend, so the race is on, but the fact that they are rivals in this front doesn’t mean, that they are not on a friendly terms with each other. They doesn’t want to make enemies out of each other, so they choose to wait for Hiroshi’s decision.

    Hiroshi is not a bad person, he’s just not very bright. I think he should wear kitty ears or bunny ears as a universal sign he’s a scatter brain.

      It’s subtle, but he’s got an idiot hair.

      If this were Celtic mythology (or a fair few others), Hiroshi would need to meet and marry a smart and clever gal to help him out on his hero’s quest.

        THe hairdo we call Vokuhila or in english “fsbl – front short back long”. Vokuhila sounds better though.

        In Japanese, “ahoge”, あほ毛.

        In english, that hairstyle is called a mullet.

        Just replying to gyrre who said Hiroshi has an “idiot hair”, which, Hiroshi being (presumably) Japanese, would make it an “ahoge”. The rest is what it is, not disputing it.

    Cas, you did the right thing here. It’s probably gonna hurt but you’re never gonna look back on this and think “what the f was I thinking?”

      She’s already crushed under the weight of realising what the f*** she’s just done. Knowing she did the right thing just makes that burden inescapable. Give her a hug, not a pat on the back.

    Sometimes, doing the right thing really, really sucks.

    Which doesn’t make it any less right.

    Why do I have the feeling Daylla is gonna be a pain in the butt about this? “Seriously, after all my effort, you got yourself friendzoned?”

    To which I say, it’s Castela. Helping people sort out their heads is easier for her, than to sort out her own. But this is also why she’s getting help from Luci.

      sometimes doing the right thing isn’t doing the right thing…. granted I will get heat for that comment but Shawna and Cass are going after the same guy. While she should remind Hiroshi about sticking to his word she shouldn’t beat him to death with it….

      Hell Shawna professed her feelings for Hiroshi just after finding out how Cass felt so yeah…..

        Well like Timmy, Cass hasn’t fully decided to go after Hiroshi. She’s fence sitting again where as Shawna stopped fence sitting.

        It’s something I’ve found with young people with “old souls”, having been one of them who is now older. We’re just so gosh darn helpful that sage advice to solve other people’s personal problems spills out of our mouths before we even stop to consider what would be more self-serving and advantageous for us. It often takes someone being very and deliberately interested in us to break past that.

      Nope, Day would not do that

      Shawna always had feelings for Hiro, remember, she was the about the only one who remembered him from before he got flutterby’ed and was happy when he returned

    Cass can do better than “good looking airhead”. Just ’cause he’s the first guy to make her bloom doesn’t mean he’s the one for her.

    Even if he is an experienced pollinator…

      Why? Because he’s forgetful? Absentminded? Doesn’t have a malicious bone in his body?

    See? He’s already forgotten about spending time with Castela…

    I don’t buy the friend zone stuff. You could see from Friday’s edition that nervous flirtation was afoot between Hiroshi and Castela before Shawna showed up, and I don’t think this scene changes that. I mean, just the fact that he flaked on Shawna’s invite speaks to how he currently feels about her.

      He flakes on everything, it’s just Shawna who, so far, cares

    Hmm, maybe that’s the whole reason he was hanging with Stela so much: she is easy to talk with

    He needs a better reminder. Castela and / or Shawna, if you want this guy long term, never leave his side.

    The way Hiroshi described his memory problems sounds a lot like what people with what used to be known as Attention·Deficit·Disorder have to deal with 😖
