Good episode--adding some growth. Minor setbacks.

While starting a relationship with a former ex's brother can be awkward. Yamato broke up with Akari first. It looks as if Izumi never knew about Yamato having a girlfriend back then. So, I would say that's all on Yamato. Izumi is innocent and while Akari should let him know, in my opinion, it's alright to start off as friends.What I'm getting thus far is Akari does not 'love' or 'deeply like' Izumi yet. I believe that she's finally opening herself up to a new person for the first time in a long time; other than her female friend(s).With anxiety, it's difficult to open yourself up to new people. Especially after experiencing a heartbreak being dumped like that. The way Yamato dumped her--there was no feeling in it. I think he comes off charming only because he smiles every second. But deep down, he doesn't know how to communicate his emotions. Akari is shy, timid, but also very anxious of those around her and their opinions. Being with a guy like Izumi who is more honest and open would be an amazing experience for her.
