"Um, I'm not good at reading the mood, so I'll say it now, but please go out with me," Kosuke suddenly confessed to Yuka. After staring at Kosuke for a moment, she replied casually, "Yeah, that's good!", then picked up her luggage and said, "I'll be heading back then," and left.
Kosuke, who was left behind, was stunned and asked, "What does this mean?"
On social media, people were talking about the incident, saying things like, "I was so excited by such a serious confession, but Yuka's 'Sure!' was so casual that it left me confused too," "I'm curious to see what's going to happen to Kosuke and Yuka," "I felt better seeing Kosuke say something that didn't read the room, but I'm also curious to know what his reply meant," and "Kosuke seemed surprised too, so I wonder if we can really assume that they're dating."
The episode depicted an episode from Yuka's school days. Yuka appeared wearing a knit cap, and it drew attention on social media with comments such as "I was shocked at how cute Kyoko was as a student," "But Kyoko was just too cute in that knit cap from her school days," "Even though it was a flashback scene of a minor character, she still had an overwhelming heroine vibe," and "Kyoko Fukada never changes. She's always cute."
