Sasaki: Hey, Miya-Chan, do you want water or tea with lunch?
Miyano, sitting down: I’d like tea, please, Sasaki.
Sasaki, also sitting down: Ok, so get this, Hirano was telling me how he walking in on his roommate completely naked and now he can’t look at him-
Hirano from across the room, getting to his feet angrily: What the fuck, Sasaki! I told you that in confidence!
Sasaki, being dragged away by Hirano: And now his roommate won’t make eye contact and it’s starting to piss Hirano off because he thinks he might actually love-
Something I’ve been thinking about lately is Ogasawara saying, “if I don’t see myself marrying her, then why am I with her,” when asked if he was going to marry his girlfriend. So in Sasaki to Miyano, Miyano (when thinking over his thoughts/ answer for Sasaki) considers his future with Sasaki and analyses his thoughts towards him if they were/ are still together in the future. He mentions that Sasaki might not like him when his face starts to age in 30 years, and Sasaki was floored that Miyano was taking his request seriously. So Miyano thinks about whether or not he wants to marry Sasaki before deciding if he wants to be with him. However, in Hirano to Kagiura, Hirano shoots Kagi down instantly. He doesn’t consider or even think about being with Kagiura (at the time, maybe even no one really) because he doesn’t see himself marrying Kagi. This, to him, isn’t an option or thought. He shoots him down because there isn’t a point being with Kagiura if he isn’t going to marry him. To Hirano, he isn’t going to marry Kagi so there isn’t a point being with him now. Logically, this makes sense and it’s pretty on point for Hirano whereas both Ogasawara and Miyano are thinking about their future relationships. Long term vs short term.
I’m curious how Hirano will do when he is no longer rooming with Kagiura. I think he, as we’ve seen in a few brief panels with him in college, Hirano will become more bold and make moves as he misses the dynamic. The short time he spent with Kagi, the short term relationship is gone, therefore if he wants to “keep” Kagiura, Hirano will have to make an effort to make it long term. Because he isn’t around the younger 24/7 now (in college), it’s possible he will realized he doesn’t want to just be with Kagiura (in a short term relationship like they were as roommates) and instead, wants to be with him as long as possible (long term/ marrying).
Ogasawara walking down the hall, talking to Sasaki: … and now I’m starting to wonder are all my friends into dudes? I mean it’s fine and whatever, but Hirano and that Kagiura guy were roommates.
Miyano coming out of the classroom: Oh my God, they were roommates!
