![]() After the movie, Yuuhi accidentally walks into a man, spilling her food onto him. While the two are out Minato decides to go shopping. Just before the trio are about to leave, Minato fakes a phone call and makes up a lie about a previous commitment she forgot about and cannot cancel, forcing Jun'ichi and Yuuhi to go on a date. Jun'ichi asks Minato to see a monster movie with him, which causes Yuuhi to become angry that Jun'ichi never thought to include her. #10 - The Scarlet First Date Season 1 - Episode 5 - Aired Jun'ichi ultimately gives in, but finds that the girls have already left to interrogate Yuuhi about her relationship with Jun'ichi. ![]() The bear and cub leave and the group go in for a dip, boys on one side, girls on the other, and Jun'ichi tries to deal with his urge not to peek on the girls. Jun'ichi, worried for his sister, follows soon afterwards with the rest of the group in tow, only to find Minato bathing in the hot spring with a bear and cub. This is shortly interrupted by the sounds of a beast, and Minato takes off to find out the source of the noise. There they learn that the secret hot spring is a co-ed bath, which causes some problems since the there are guys and girls. Karen takes this to mean that Jun'ichi is not satisfied with the luxuries of the hotel and so she takes the group on a long hike up to the Ayanokouji family's secret hot spring. While there everyone continues to hang around and tease Jun'ichi who is not impressed by their company. Karen invites Jun'ichi and his school friends (including their teacher) up to a mountain hotel resort to make up for the events of the cruise ship party. But close.#1 - Golden Yellow Montagne Season 1 - Episode 6 - Aired Rating: ★✰ Not the worst anime I’ve seen. ![]() But that’s just my opinion: Akane Iro ni Somaru Saka is too cute for porn and too porny to be cute, hence relegating it to the realm of uncomfortable creepiness. And there you have it. True, it was funny and cute with an interesting enough storyline, and like in Fruits Basket perhaps it was just a cultural difference and not meant to be taken as seriously as I thought, but the creepy subtext completely hindered any real enjoyment for me. (The bonus OVA had more ecchi fan service than I’ve ever seen in any anime to date!) Then the possible incest came into play and I really could not imagine who the target audience was for this series other than, well, perverts. Then the fan service popped up (even in the opening credits) and I thought otherwise. In fact, I began watching this show mistakenly believing that was the genre that it was. I had to wonder who the target audience is for this anime, because the high school drama and cutesy graphics (note the precious little bat on the corner of the cover) make it seem like perfect fodder for shojo. However, with the rocky start they began with, things don’t look good for a future marriage! ![]() It turns out that Junichi is the boy she is betrothed to! Still angry at the earlier events of the day, Yuuhi explains that she is here to move in with them for a short while so as to better judge Junichi’s character for herself. Later on that evening Junichi and Minato receive a knock on their door: it’s Yuuhi with a suitcase in hand. Yuuhi immediately flies into a rage because Junichi stole her first kiss. Misreading the signs, he kisses her in front of the entire class. Junichi is happy to see the beautiful girl whom he rescued the other day, and believes that she is happy to see him, too. Coincidentally, Yuuhi transfers to Junichi’s high school the next day as part of a deal that she made with her father: he set up Yuuhi’s engagement to a boy that she has never met, and rather than passively go along with her father’s wishes, she sets out to meet this boy and judge whether he is worthy herself. One day he encounters a girl named Yuuhi Katagiri and saves her from being harassed by a couple of boys. Two girls living with one boy, but this sure isn't "Three's Company."
