Flavor: Sweet

So, just after Sakura idolizes Jun some more and asks him to go out with her, he immediately rejects her… and the rest of the episode is spent with Sakura chasing after Jun and him running away from her (with the help of Ryuu and his twin sister, of course). Apparently, Jun doesn’t want to date Sakura because he’s afraid she might become a victim of his ’secret’, just like it happened with a girl he liked in the past.

Anyways, despite Ryuu and Megumi’s efforts to block Sakura’s attempts at kissing Jun, in the end he lets her give him a kiss on the cheek. However, not long after he gets kissed, Jun faints and some time later he wakes up, but with a completely different personality. It’s not the shy and quiet Jun anymore, but rather his other self who possesses a bad boy-like attitude. Ryuu explains to the other SA members that he’s been like that ever since he watched some kind of hipnotism TV program when he was just a child. Ever since then, whenever he gets kissed by a girl, he becomes the other Jun who’s pretty much irresistible to most women (and this is what ruined his past relationship). Ryuu then tells them that the only thing that’s able to turn him back to normal again is Megumi’s voice. Afterwards, Ryuu proceeds to say “good night” to Jun and Megumi gets ready to sing…

After Jun wakes up again, he’s now back to his normal self. Sakura then goes and compliments him about how he’s left her even more impressed about him and how she really likes both sides of his, something that makes Jun feel pretty happy…

This was a pretty fun episode and, hey, it looks like there’s finally an established pairing in Special A, who’d have guessed it! Also, let me say that Sakura is simply awesome… so awesome in fact that she’s already turned into my favorite female character from the show. Looking forward to seeing more of her later on the series.

Next episode: More about Akira and Yahiro… which I guess is okay since lately I just seem to enjoy SA a lot more the less they focus on Kei and Hikari.
