Takamichi, Harukanaru Toki no Naka de


Gorgeous, smart and kind, great in his office just like with a knife - yet easily flustered which makes him the perfect target for his best friend's, general Tomomasa's, jokes. What a wonderful character. And I still think that he and Tomomasa weren't just "friends". I mean, I know that HaruToki was based on a dating game but both Tomomasa and Takamichi were way, way too old for the main heroine.

A new HaruToki OVA is out and subbed. It's called Kokoro no Yukue (Destination of the Heart) and it's subbed by Kuruizaki. The subbing is wonderful btw, an excellent job!

I think I would call this episode "A Comedy of Misunderstandings", really. There are only four of the Hachiyou there: Yorihisa, Takamichi, Inori and Eisen. But the authors were really accentuating the shojo part in this OVA - flowers, slow motion, Yorihisa slipping one arm out of his tunic, shaking water out of his hair... *sigh* Though they were overdoing it a bit with Eisen's gentle heart (see Eisen and the butterfly scene XP).

The interaction is mostly Inori+Eisen and Yorihisa+Takamichi. But I especially enjoyed the Yorihisa+Takamichi conversation. They are both so polite that they simply couldn't bring up the whole... "thing" (I can't tell what because that would spoil ther story). But it made them both so uncomfortable that they just kept standing there, looking at the ground and I could almost see them shuffling their feet too! And this moment was even more emphasized by the use of chibi characters with the ". . . *sweatdrop*" sings over their heads. So incredibly cute. But the authors were really playing the yaoi-sh vibes with these two in this OVA!

So, if you liked HaruToki the anime, don't miss this OVA. You can find the torrent here! Go and spread the HaruToki love! XD

I really love Tomomasa:

"I made a bet with the vice minister of civil affairs, Takamichi... and if I lose, I have to become a priest."

*g* Tomomasa a priest? *lmao* That would be one perverted priest.

And...

Takamichi: "I hate the idea of a bet."
Tomomasa: "I bet. Did I anger you?"
Takamichi: "No."

It's these small conversations they share that are the reason why I love these two and consider them my only OTP in this series. I mean, there are eight cute male main characters (and some more), but these two I can't imagine with anybody else.
