Lemon is challenged by a former middle school track partner who likes her, Anna has a “re-death” scene with a fellow actor who likes her, Chihaya shows off the dangerous firearms she’s been developing, the StuCo members are more eccentric than ever, and Koto smokes a candy cigarette. But this isn’t their episode, nor is it a true festival episode. No, it’s Chika’s episode. As someone who has come to adore Chika, that’s fine with me!
She returns to school on the day of Tsuwabuki Fest, and when Kazuhiko tells her all the wonderful things everyone else did for the awesome exhibit, she kicks him, because she wants him to let her compliment him for something. The bottom line is that he was the glue that brought and held all the elements together to make the exhibit a success—and help the club win a provisional reprieve from the StuCo Prez.
Kazuhiko ends up checking in on Lemon, who doesn’t realize a buff guy wants to date her and beats him in a race (perhaps they’ll go on that movie anyway), nor does Anna seem to really acknowledge the existence of her samurai co-star. But prior to this Kazuhiko and Chika, on Anna’s orders, explore the festival together, giving me much-needed ship fuel for the two.
As the sun sets on the festival, which was an unqualified, unprecedented success for the lit club, Koto tells a wavering Kazuhiko that she can’t support Chika anymore. Only he can stand by Chika’s side going forward, and Koto makes clear she doesn’t necessarily mean romantically, to which I ask, Why the heck not?!
That answer becomes clear once Kazuhiko realizes that Koto is letting Chika have some time alone with Shintarou. When he returns to her in the classroom, Chika’s eyes are still red from tears shed as a result of letting out her emotions once more. She asked Shintarou if he ever liked her, and if he would if Koto weren’t in the picture.
She called his response kind as ever, and as she looks out the window at the setting sun, declares she doesn’t regret liking him. Trying to be a pillar for her, Kazuhiko delivers an oft-used but also apt saying: time heals all wounds. Even wounds that in that moment, Chika would rather hold onto just a little bit longer.
This had me thinking of another saying, which Chika embodies fully: it’s better to have loved and lost than never loved at all. She’s glad she loved Shintarou, and it’s particularly poignant that she declares this without stuttering. Komari Chika may techinically be a loser in the Tamaki Sweepstakes, but she is also unassailably a heroine.
