Conversations did not start with Tezuka; conversations went to Tezuka to die.
AHHAHAHAHAHAHAH.
the long descriptive passages about tezuka and ryoma in the beginning of this story are so amusing that they outweigh the silliness (thus far) of the plot1.
ps: watched ep 22 "the troubles of kaoru" and it was almost as inexpressibly wonderful as 71 "it's a date" (and, indeed, belongs directly to the same arc). also, i'm extremely squeeful now about shinji too. i wish there were more fudomine fic. ♥♥ fudomine!
eta 1. but then it gets worse.
