God, I hate Kaede, and I'm mad at Ryuu and Ryoko too.
I've waited like 2 years for this to be scanned again and now this just left me feeling sad and angry but I know it's a harder more realistic sort of romance but I'm feeling like taking it out on his cousin, like somehow mentally slapping an imaginary 2 d person upside the head would help with that ...
lol.
So what happens now - fast forward to college where they meet again???
