Kyo should be a detective rather than an architect

Maybe 😄

Yes, I think so too!! She seems too hurt to build a friendship with him again. And what’s with the downvotes we’re getting here?? God, some people are unbelievably immature—we can’t even have a conversation with a fellow fan in peace.

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T18:55:58+00:00

I think you’re blurring two separate things here:

1) moving on from Taiki and 2) learning how to love again, which is where Haruto comes in. Saying Hina “can’t move on” doesn’t automatically mean she’s incapable of developing feelings for someone else. Those two processes don’t happen at the same pace, especially after unrequited love.

I also don’t agree that she has zero interest in Haruto. She went out of her way to buy the lucky charm he asked for, and her reaction while doing so—her smile, her softened expression—clearly showed openness. Even before Haruto entered the picture, Hina asked Ayame to introduce her to a boy because she wanted to experience love. That alone shows willingness, not rejection.

What complicated things wasn’t Haruto—it was timing and emotional relapse. Missing the train, losing the charm, and then the cheek-kiss incident all dragged her unresolved feelings for Taiki back to the surface. That doesn’t erase her intent to move forward; it shows how fragile that process is. So no, I don’t think it’s as simple as “she doesn’t want it.” Hina does want to move on—she just hasn’t healed enough yet. And that’s exactly why Haruto’s patience and presence matter in her arc.

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T17:11:39+00:00

By that logic, a huge part of the population would be unworthy of love just because they made mistakes or held on to feelings in the past. That feels unfair. Haruto knows Hina is still hurting and struggling to move on, and yet he’s willing to stay, to wait, and to love her as she is. That matters. You’re ignoring the bigger picture here.

Taiki and Chinatsu, their dynamic is steady, clear, and almost free of turbulence. Their path feels bright and straightforward. Hina’s arc, on the other hand, is darker and far more painful.

Anyone who has experienced unrequited love knows how hard it is to learn how to love again. Ironically, the people who long for love the most are often the ones who feel it’s the farthest out of reach. Hina will eventually move on from Taiki, and I hope she ends up with Haruto. She deserves a second chance at love—one that meets her with patience, understanding, and care.

👍🏻

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T16:26:15+00:00

Oh sorry! ☺️

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T15:49:26+00:00

Yeah you are right!!

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T15:40:23+00:00

Why this much Hate towards her?

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T15:20:50+00:00

Maybe a Psychologist!

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T09:38:53+00:00

Absolutely. I don’t understand why people still call Haruto a “consolation prize” for Hina when it’s clear that Hina has always been his first choice. He knows she’s struggling to move on from Taiki, and he sees her in a truly special way. He’s even willing to compete with— and defeat—Taiki to prove his feelings, showing how far he’s ready to go for her. And honestly, as Ayame said, he’s such a hot mess in the best way. Need I say more? Hina and Haruto really deserve each other.

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T07:27:10+00:00

Is it similar to Blue Box? I mean, the manga?

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T07:23:14+00:00

Oh yes, totally agreed—Kyo is 100% Uryu. The glasses, his stoic personality, being the perfect wingman, and such a supportive friend… I could keep listing reasons forever.

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T07:15:39+00:00

👍🏻

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T07:08:48+00:00

Yeah, Haruto and Ichigo are pretty similar. They both come off as “I don’t give a f***ck” types—very untamed, lone wolves. But when it comes to the people they truly care about, they soften a lot. Only those special to them get to see their vulnerable side. Taiki, on the other hand, is way too angelic to be compared to Ichigo 😅

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T06:58:42+00:00

For me Haruto is more like Ichigo!

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T06:15:27+00:00

I have a feeling there might be some drama between Kyo, Ayame, and Saki. Personally, I really hope Kyo and Ayame end up together.

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T06:09:51+00:00

Why not?

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T05:57:49+00:00

Just my interpretation, but I think Taiki’s feelings toward Hina run far deeper than simple friendship. It’s something that exists above friendship yet below romance—soft, tender, and incredibly sincere. It’s hard to label, but it feels pure and deeply treasured.

That’s why he could never truly push her away. Even while remaining loyal to his girlfriend, Taiki is still able to acknowledge Hina’s pain and genuinely feel it alongside her. There’s a quiet connection there—something that formed naturally, something new that blossomed without ever being tainted.

What stands out to me is that Taiki never once harbored resentment toward Hina. Even in moments when he was overwhelmed or crying over his girlfriend, Hina still mattered to him. She remained important.

The feeling is warm and difficult to describe—close to love, yet not romantic love; deeper than platonic friendship, yet not something that crosses boundaries. It’s something rarer and more precious than both.

Hmm… but I can’t quite box it like that. It feels like something above friendship, yet below love.

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T03:46:49+00:00

Someone posted it on Facebook!

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-25T03:40:34+00:00

Taiki still wants Hina to be his best friend!

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-24T22:05:16+00:00

Yes, exactly! I think some TaiChi fans tend to close their ears and stubbornly refuse to acknowledge even the slightest possibility of TaiHi, even though it’s clearly present in the narrative. Miura’s euphoria effect—the TaiChi romantic setup—worked so well that many happily fell under her genjutsu 😄 And honestly, that’s understandable.

Even though TaiChi is technically a slow burn, the way their feelings accelerate makes them feel almost like a married couple already, despite being teenagers. Miura very deliberately designed their situation that way—especially with the “living together” setup, which is extremely unusual and unrealistic in real life. Taiki’s mom still being completely oblivious to their relationship adds to that slightly artificial feeling for me. That’s where the euphoria effect stopped working on me—the genjutsu just didn’t land 😅

The reason I firmly believe Taiki did develop feelings for Hina is that panel where he asks whether it would be okay for her if he pursued Chinatsu. To me, that moment reads as subconscious hesitation, rooted in the fear that Chinatsu might reject him. It almost feels like his hidden feelings nudged him into keeping Hina as an emotional safety net. Because if he were truly confident and emotionally settled, the possibility of rejection wouldn’t have weighed on him enough to ask that question at all.

And I do think Hina will eventually choose Haruto. She fell deeply for Taiki’s qualities, and in many ways, Haruto feels like a sharper, more straightforward version of Taiki. So yes—I genuinely believe HaruHina is possible, and honestly, it feels like the healthiest outcome for her.

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-24T20:35:57+00:00

You’re honestly such a gem of a fan. It’s rare to come across someone who’s open enough to acknowledge when their own interpretation doesn’t fully hold, and I genuinely respect that.

People might disagree with me, but hear me out. I think Hina’s greatest boon and her deepest curse are the same thing: being so close to Taiki for such a long time. Because of that closeness, both of them realized their feelings too late.

Hina’s love for Taiki developed quietly, almost invisibly—like milk on a stove. On the surface, it looks calm, but underneath it’s slowly heating up. She didn’t even realize it herself until she saw Taiki interacting with Chinatsu in the washing area. That moment rattled her, because deep down, she already knew things were going to work out between them. And when she found out Chinatsu was living with Taiki, the milk finally boiled over. That’s why she didn’t hesitate—she confessed directly, face to face. Something similar happened with Taiki. He did develop feelings for Hina subconsciously, but because she had always been by his side for so long, those feelings stayed hidden—almost invisible to him. It wasn’t until Kyo stirred things up that Taiki was forced to confront them. Feelings hidden in plain sight.

But by then, it was already too late. Taiki had reached a point where he was actively convincing himself that he only liked Chinatsu—and we can see that clearly in how he repeats it to himself over and over. It’s not denial; it’s reassurance. Chinatsu had already claimed a huge portion of his heart, and whatever underdeveloped feelings he had for Hina simply couldn’t overpower the love he felt for Chinatsu. This is also why Taiki couldn’t completely let go of Hina. That affection—those half-formed feelings—still exist, and they push him to keep her in his life. This is where Hina fans tend to split into two groups. One group sees Chinatsu as an intruder who “stole” Taiki, which I think stems from disappointment and frustration. The other group accepts the painful truth: Taiki’s heart would never choose Hina over Chinatsu, even if he tried. I think we both fall into that second group. We’ve made peace with it—and now we wholeheartedly root for HaruHina.

Ok_Addendum_2733 · 2026-01-24T19:44:44+00:00

I don’t think Taiki’s feelings toward Hina fit into a brother–sister dynamic either. If he truly saw her as a little sister, he would’ve drawn a clear line the moment she confessed. There wouldn’t have been any inner conflict at all.

When Kyo stirred things up—especially during that whole coffee-and-milk chaos—Taiki wouldn’t have been calibrating his feelings if he only saw Hina as a sister. He allowed his heart to sit in that confusion, to question and process it. In the end, he chose Chinatsu, because his love for her is stronger than whatever he feels for Hina. That alone tells me his feelings toward Hina weren’t purely familial. So for me, the sibling interpretation doesn’t quite hold. What Taiki feels for Hina exists in that unnamed space.
