“Did you just subtly reject me?”

“Let’s be real, I’ve been more or less rejecting you this whole time”

Kirishima is getting no assurances from Yoshino about his ‘love’, instead, she is pretty sure she might have to move back to Osaka for college. But that’s still not stopping him from flirting, or accompanying her everywhere, almost like a bodyguard. Had he been a regular teenager, ‘lovesick pup’ would’ve been the right phrase, but very little about Kirishima is pup-like! Yoshino keeps calling him a ‘psycho’ for a reason.

Titled “If You’re Indifferent, Then I’d Rather Be Hated Part 2,” episode 7 of Yakuza Fiancé: Raise wa Tanin ga Ii begins with the protagonists heading to Osaka on a train. For those who haven’t read the manga and are rooting for Kirishima and Yoshino to get together ASAP, there’s good news—they sort of go on a date. Sort of. Also, remember how in episode 6, Kirishima took an old handmade keychain from Yoshino’s childhood room as a keepsake? Well, she gives him a new handmade one, and his eyes light up in a slightly crazy way, like he’s just received a wedding ring! L-O-L.

The bulk of this episode focuses on Kirishima’s ex-girlfriend Nao, who finds herself in a tight spot with another toxic ex and is forced to drag Kirishima into the messy situation she’s gotten herself into. This time, Yoshino gets involved too! Shoma, the other good-looking guy in Yakuza Fiancé: Raise wa Tanin ga Ii, advises her not to meddle in Kirishima’s business unless she’s ready to take things seriously with him. But, of course, Yoshino has a mind of her own and isn’t about to listen to anyone.

This is an interesting edition, once again featuring sub-plots that makes the characters feel too old to be just high-school seniors. But otherwise, there’s some romance, a lot of drama, and a decent amount of intrigue to keep you hooked until the end.

You can watch the series on Crunchyroll.
