Cute Valentine's Day episode this week!

It starts with Kosaku hiding in a pile of leaves trying to see if he can run into Angela, but he gives up and pops out into the street at the exact moment she happens to ride by on her bike and as he's stalking her he sees signs for valentine's day and hounds her that he wants some chocolate from her, REALLY wants some, even sings a chocolate song about how much he wants her to give him chocolate. She tells him no and goes to the church. The nuns are seperating small packets of chocolate (for something) and Angela 'steals' one for Kosaku. When she goes to the gym to give it to him, the girl from the restaurant is already there with a huge chocolate heart that she sees him get really excited about. She leaves in a huff before she sees Mukouda tell him he can't have it and the girl takes it back. Katsumi sees Angela on a bridge scream that Kosaku is an idiot and throw the little parcel as hard as she can. She runs to get it and acts like nothing happened when she sees that Katsumi was watching her. He takes her chocolate to the gym for Kosaku and he freaks out when he realizes it's from Angela. The other boxers are all harrasing Kosaku about being an idiot when it comes to Angela and scaring her off, and make a big deal out of one of the other boxers getting some chocolate.

He asks the girl at the restaurant about when else he could get a girl a present, and she thinks he means for her. So she suggests Christmas, or her birthday. A little while after that Angela sees her helping him with a large delivery order and spies on them when they get a snack.. and go out to lunch, and Kosaku sees her spying and chases after her. He catches up to her just as she reaches the church and he asks her when her birthday is. She doesn't understand why he's asking her that and says something about the other girl, which really confuses Kosaku. He tries to figure it out with the other boxers, insisting he doesn't like the girl from the restaurant like that. They say maybe Angela's jealous because she likes Kosaku but thinks he likes the other girl.

While Angela is praying in her room about what to do about her feelings for Kosaku, the mean nun comes in and tells her she has to make a choice. (or something like that) Kosaku is hiding the leaves for her again, and jumps out when she rides by. I'm not sure what they said to each other, but he seemed pretty pleased by it. Back at the gym, they're discussing what she said when one of the boxers who was recently dumped gets pretty upset and soon they're all in the ring screaming at each other when Mukouda comes down and kicks all their butts. The other nuns are having snack time and ask Angela if something's wrong because she's absentmindedly eaten about 10 mikan. She talks to Mother Abbess in the hallway privately about her conflicted feelings. Old nun says something that makes her think. (Probably that she's not a nun YET.)

One of the other boxers is out and sees Katsumi getting bullied and chases off the other kids. Kosaku is at the gym with the other boxes around dinner time and is visited by Mother Abbess. He explains to her a little about boxing, since she is interested in all the equipment. She seems to shed some light on why Sister Angela didn't seem to understand how to answer when her birthday was (I didn't really get it though -- I can only guess because becoming a nun you lose your birthday?) Whatever she said made Kosaku cry, and all the other boxers sad too.

The boxer that saved Katsumi from the bullies walks him to school the next day. While the boxer is making a speech though, Katsumi leaves him there talking to himself. Mukouda goes to the church to see Angela apparently to take her to do karaoke with her. Mukouda seems to feel sorry for Angela for some reason. Later at the gym, Kosaku is still feeling down and the boxer that got dumped wants to spar with him, without using headgear. The other boxer lands a good punch to his face, and says some things that get Kosaku riled up enough to hit him back in the face. They scream at each other and keep landing face blows in front of the other two boxers and Mitaka until Kosaku goes down and they both fall apart.

The next day while Mother Abess is watching Angela pray, Angela hears a mans voice calling to her (Kosaku is hiding around the corner) and it tells her that today is her birthday. Kosaku goes to leave and Angela stops him with her voice. Elsewhere, three of the other boxers are out and one gets rejected by a woman he approaches. At the gym, the boxer that helped Katsumi approaches him about learning how to box. Mukouda and Mitaka are in her office and Mitaka seems to have something he wants to say to her, but leaves before he gets it out. Back at the church, Angela tells Kosaku that she likes him and Kosaku tells her he REALLY likes her.

This was a really good episode for not being an actual chapter from the series. I thought it stayed really true to all the characters and was really cute. And there was an ad for the manga after this episode too.

Next episode Sister Angela learns to box! lol

Sorry this is late, I had no internet at my house all weekend!

This episode starts with Kosaku showing the other boxers how Angela admitted to liking him. At the church though, Angela may regret expressing her feelings.

Back at the gym Mukouda tells Angela he's fighting a foreigner (Takos!) but they have no data on him so he sneaks to the rival gym to watch him practice and is a little intimidated at first until the guy apologizes to his opponent. The he becomes intimidated again when he follows him out of the gym and watches him crush an apple with his bare hands, a little irked that he didn't eat it.

Out on a walk alone, Angela sees Kosaku EVERYWHERE and then runs into him for real. They go to a restaurant to talk and spy on Takos, who works there. He cooks like he's boxing and the whole restaurant is impressed. Kosaku tells Angela to feed him so it looks like they're a real couple, and she almost does, but stops herself and at that moment Takos recognizes Kosaku.

Back at the church Angela has a weak moment when Kosaku tells her he's going to become a champion for her and goes to the mother abbess to tell her she's decided something, but I'm not sure what it is, that she's ready to become a full-fledged nun I guess?

Later at the gym the boxer that helped Katsumi out of his scrape asks him if he's ready to start boxing yet but I don't think Mukouda wants him to, they stop and act like they were doing something wrong when Kosaku runs in.

Back at the church, Angela and Sister Milly are having a private talk and Angela freaks out because she can't stop hearing Kosaku saying he likes her in his head. Milly tries to help her, but then Angela sees lots of Kosaku's in her head. Nothing seems to help.

At the gym Mukouda is mad because Kosaku is overweight again when Angela shows up and wants to box to help keep her mind off Kosaku. It seems like the nuns are staging an intervention for her but back at the gym all the boxers (and Mukouda) are really impressed with Angela's boxing abilities. Kosaku is in a really good mood at work at the restaurant because he's getting to spend so much time with Angela, who is currently cleaning up the kitchen at the gym which Mukouda tells her she doesn't have to do. The two women have a talk about why Angela needs to box and she admits it's to help get her mind off Kosaku.

The bullies glue together all the pages of Katsumi's textbook at school, and when he gets to the gym he tries to talk to Mukouda but she brushes him off and the boxer who's been helping him notices he's down and tries to talk to him, but Mitaka forces him back to training. He's surprised to see Angela there too, but she seems to be determined.

At the church Milly and Mother Abbess talk about Angela's boxing and they gossip a little about her 'love life' and how maybe Milly is jealous of her. (I think)

Angela is staying in Kosaku and his roomate's room looking at the magazines with him in them, and Kosaku and his roomate (the boxer helping Katsumi) are sleeping in the gym. The next day, Angela makes all the boxers a huge breakfast, but all Kosaku gets is rice, much to his dismay. Everyone else does a good job of rubbing it in his face too. Everyone can feel the attraction between Angela and Kosaku as she helps out in the gym. As Kosaku and Angela are on a walk, he shows her a playground where he used to sneak food while he was training. They see Takos running by and call him over. (I think Kosaku calls him Tiger though?) He shows them a picture of his HUUUGE family and says he's fighting for them (I think). As they continue their walk Kosaku says something to Angela that seems to scare her off and she rides away on her bike, alone.

Katsumi takes his schoolbag to Mukouda's office and she notices dirt on his hankerchief and sees that it has a deliberate footprint on it. She looks in his bag and finds his glued-shut book and when he comes back she asks him about it. She tells him he's being an idiot (for not fighting back I think). Their argument leads down into the gym in front of everyone. The boxer who's been helping Katsumi tries to defend him, and Katsumi loses it and says something that forces the boxers to hold Mukouda back and runs out. The one who's been helping him tries to run after him, but Mukouda stops him, and Angela goes instead. Kosaku follows her and they look for him. Back in Mukouda's office she talks to Mitaka about Katsumi.

The boxer who's been helping Katsumi (Umeda?) has told the other boxers what's been happening to him and they talk about the situation. Kosaku and Angela finally find Katsumi at the playground from before and talk to him about going back to the gym. He says he wishes he could box as well as they do and wasn't afraid. Angela tells him she only began boxing because she was afraid of her feelings for Hatanaka (I think). Kosaku makes Katsumi laugh by complaining about the cold, and they take him back to the gym where the other boxers have made him dinner. Mukouda apologizes in her own way and Angela says she's going back to the church. She thanks everyone and Kosaku is sad to see her go.

Back at the church, she apologizes to all the nuns for leaving and Kosaku shows up and seems to say just the right thing to get her out of trouble. He tells her again as she's leaving that he's going to become a champion. During his fight with Takos he takes his fair share of hits but manages to knock him out.

At school, Katsumi is asked to read from his textbook in class and sees some ecouraging words his mother has written on the cover and forces the book open, much to the horror of his bullies. The page is unreadable though and he makes the whole class laugh by saying he can't read it.

Randomly, an old man shows up at the gym (I think the one that was training Takos) and punches Umeda in front of the other boxers. Elsewhere, Kosaku runs into Angela out jogging and I think she says that boxing was fun, which Kosaku is very happy to hear.

And Mirai Trunks is right, next episode is at the host club!
