This rant is not exclusive to 2x11 but it did trigger this. I rarely rant tbh.

However, all these yuribaiting is like forcing us to lower our expectations and making us feel like we owe it to them if they give us something close to homosexual attraction. I’m disappointed because they lead us to believe something good will come out of it but guess what, there isn’t. It’s like saying yes to a marriage proposal just to say no at the altar (okay not the best analogy). Come on, the girls had a nice build-up going on; don’t say they didn’t have it because we saw that you were trying to go there.

It’s a good anime, really. Very powerful animation too. Don’t get me wrong, I’m really grateful for this and I enjoy the story, in general. I didn’t watch it for the gay but I must admit that I did stay for it. I didn’t really think KumiRei will be canon when I first watched it, considering the novel. If only they didn’t lead us on, I wouldn’t be this disappointed.

They better win the Nationals though. Give justice to Kumiko who’s juggling her time practicing really hard while acting as a nosy MC and faking her support to a moping GIRL SPACE SPACE SPACE FRIEND.
