About this episode
In this episode of Shoujo Sundae, Chika and Giana review episodes four through six of Kimi Ni Todoke ! In episode four, rumors rapidly spread about Chizu and Ayane, pinning Sawako for starting them. Ayane and Chizu overhear Sawako claim that they aren’t her friends and leave before they can hear the full context of the conversation, which hurts and confuses them deeply. In episode five, further rumors about Sawako’s presence being a detriment to Kazehaya, Chizu, and Ayane cause her to distance herself from them. Kazehaya speaks with Sawako about this, and he urges her to discuss her feelings with Chizu and Ayane about their friendship. Later, Sawako confronts girls she hears spreading rumors in the bathroom to try and settle them once and for all. In episode six, the school gathers around the girl’s bathroom after hearing about a fight going on inside. Sawako tries to clear the rumors with the girls in the restroom, and Ayane and Chizu come to her aid, sealing their friendship. Grab your spoon, and let’s dig in!

My apartment by a busy intersection (in addition to some noise from neighbors) has been less than ideal for recording, but I’m planning to move to a quieter place in February 2025. Thanks for your understanding!
