Minami in other hand, like Himeji, she has a huge crush on Aki, even kissed him, lololol Himeji fans: Himeji kissed him too!! I can't really say Aki doesn't have love interest on Minami, since he did an awesome speech to Miharu about Minami. If there's any mistakes on what I've said, I'm sorry. Volume 7 has a little Aki X Yuuji First, Volume 8 has Himeji staying over Aki's house. Oh yeah, another Summon Battle with Class C in this volume happened too. I think it's more Summon Battle, not to mention Aki absented a day. Volume 10 got an attention. It seems they got C's Classroom maybe? Please read the Starting Pages of it. Anyways, before the ending, Takashiro wanted to kiss Himeji; it seems Aki was able to push his loved one away, but it's really sacrificing: Takashiro and Aki kissed instead. Volume 12 the end...? I don't read japanese. Anyway, I can't really summary on it, but here is the last image illustration: We could mention spoilers? What's that I'm playing out of my sleeve. I already predicted that Akihisa and Himeji would confess. However, I also predicted that Akihisa has to know about both people's feelings. Plus with all the events that lead up to volume 12, I gotta go with Minami. Yes, I know that Himeji was at Akihisa's house, but this was more of a relationship devolution. You know, since Himeji became a molester and all, and she molested Akihisa… twice. This is one thing that could support Minami. The other thing I want to mention is Hazuki Haduki. Her role in the series isn't just being Minami's little sister, but rather making Akihisa and Minami look more like a couple. And it was kinda her that made Minami land a date with Akihisa, which they still need to go on. Minami kinda has the lead here. Soo, I've been scanning the comments for Akihisa's, Ani mentioned recently, that Akihisa didn't end up with anyone in the end. Well, my opinion, if that's true, then it is suitable for the ending, since all the girls that compete for Akihisa have their own + and - traits. So, Akihisa ended up with no one, seems quite fair... Geez, all this time, I still haven't got the time to finish the LN yet, huhu... Maybe cause we all had been ingrained with the thinking, that in the end, the hero must get together with the heroin. In Baka to Test case, its actually heroins, so it actually won't be fair if he did end up with someone, like Himeji for example. That's just my opinion btw :P In relating to that, can we safely say Yuuji did actually end up with Shouko? Don't mind with the spoiler. That's all I need to say for Yuumi and Shouko. But yeah, I could see what you mean by multiple heroines. Akihisa and Himeji have a mutual love. Minami and Himeji both confessed to Akihisa. Akihisa responded by confessing to Himeji over a broadcast system. Things happened, and the principal banned relationships between students. So the LN ended with the normal school days going on, but we can see that Akihisa chose Himeji. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, however, and say it's mutual obsession but it's actually just obsession. Well, what the heck do you think love is? They care for each other, support each other, are attracted to each other, want to help each other, are loyal to each other, have a strong friendship, believe in each other, want to marry each other, want to protect each other, and just want to be together. And technically, Aki and Himeji are together. That last chapter didn't really mean that they weren't together, just that an official relationship was banned. But their love is mutual and they are considered each others. Facts are facts, and Aki X Himeji is considered canon at this point. And the 2nd to last chapter was obviously meant to be a joke in regards to the rule posted banning love, not how Akihisa and Himeji weren't a couple. So they can't be considered an official couple based upon school rules. I getcha you know, how the couple you didn't want together got together I was kinda against Yuuji and Shouko , but what happened happened. There's actually a major flaw in what you said though. As stated in the second-to-last chapter, it literally said that Akihisa and Himeji DOES NOT get together, thereby making them non-canon. To further the cause, all that is needed to be said is volume 8 and that literally cancels out just about everything stated. No, I'm not trying to be a dick, but such are facts. They tried, they didn't succeed, it's over, let's get pass it. But, again, I don't think that 2nd to last portion was actually meant to be taken seriously, but taken comically. So their relationship is banned, and again, nothing you said still refuted anything I said about their relationship. Their relationship does actually seem to be love. Yes, there are moments of obsession and lust and jealousy, but they truly do have feelings of love for each other and it should be noted that some of the obsession and lust are also meant to be taken comically, the care those 2 actually had for each other was one of the few things meant to be serious in this series. I think taking a comic moment to seriously shouldn't go against them being a relationship. I think they technically are in a relationship, but the school rules ban them being together. So they are as official as Yuuji and Shouko..... But I think since their feelings are mutual and they do show love towards each other with all the points I said earlier along with their mutual respect and support and they confessed to each other, they technically could count as a couple. I'll agree that it was suppose to be a comical moment in the story, but what was said was said. I fully acknowledge their feelings for each other, yes, but I just can't see it as love. At the same time, you also said that their love is banned, which counteracts on what you said about their relationship being love. Yes, I know you meant that their relationship was banned at school, but since the story doesn't continue pass their years in high school, and what was said in the volume, their relationship cannot be canon. Now, before you jump to conclusions that I'm just raging because Akihisa does not get with Minami, I just want to say that I wouldn't care if Akihisa and Himeji was canon. But facts are facts, and because of this, no matter how much you want their relationship to be canon, it is not. Honestly, I don't want their relationship to be canon I somewhat supported it because of Aki's feelings, but I really wanted him to be with a sexy older women , but I think the way it shows, they are techincally a couple despite the rule of their school saying they can't be a couple.... And if Aki was with another woman, I think almost everyone would think of him as cheating on Himeji and the reverse. So I think they would technically count as canon he did actually acknowledge Minami's feelings for him and still feels that he that wants to be with Himeji. And what do you think love is? What is your definition of love? From what I define as love mutual caring, mixed with attraction and respect and wanting to be together and able to get along with each other and support each other but at the same time, being selfish at moments and absolutly selfless at other moments and despite aknowledging each other, they are still honest about what they themselves want and are usually honest about their selfish points , they seem to be in love with each other. Please don't misunderstand, I'm not attacking you, but I wanna know; in what way are they not in love with each other; what do you think love is? I wanna know what you think about it and why. You could just be in love after knowing each other and caring for each other and finding each other important for years. And attraction could be a reason for loving as well. I feel that my criteriea kinda works for what it means to be in love which would be care and respect though respect itself is such a vague term. It's not what someone did for you but how you care about them and respect them as a person. Also, Aki did have a reason to love Himeji, he saw how well she was taking care of the animals, how hard she tried, how sweet she was acting and thought she was cute. Himeji also had reason to fall for Aki, from his kindness, support, care, and loyalty. So it can be argued that they had reasons to love each other. Wait wait wait, animals? Seriously, this is a question. On top of that, attraction isn't much of a reason. Remember, there's still obsession. Just because someone is attractive does not mean that it's love. I will agree on you with the kindness part, there's no arguing that. But, taking care of animals again, what? Those two are more for building a friendship with another person. For instance, I am loyal to my friends, and I do support my friends, but I'm not going to run out and date them. I better not, because I go to an all-boy school. The same thing goes to what you said was Akihisa's reasons to like Himeji, minus the cute part. I act nicely, I am sweet, and I do take care of my dog ha ha , but that doesn't buy me love, even when I went to a public school meaning there were also girls. At the same time, after the love has been I itiated, then those could be supports. There's more to love than what you labeled it to be, which is why it can't be define. There's so much to it that it's just a feeling. Now, could we stop for the day. I'm actually getting tired. That's my one question. After that, then we could drop this debate. Hm, not completely true. Like I said, love could be very misleading I did say that, right? On top of that, there's also obsession. That's why I said that love cannot be define. There's certain situations for everyone in terms of love, some differing, some almost or exactly the same. Okay, could we stop now?

Spoiler: I think its something along that himeji ends up in a scenario where she can travel oversea to america or smth but wont go if aki doesnt want her to, she also confess. Aki thinks it is just to be nice and does not believe her so he is ready to let her go, but then Minami confess and say that this isnt the aki she loves, she tells him that himeji would never say something like that without meaning it! They are in the middle of a battle with the 3rd years so something happens and aki ends up announcing his love to himeji through the speakers of the whole school while also destroying some school walls and setting himself in danger, so as a punishment the inspector enforces a school rule that makes student love illigal. So he chooses Himeji but minami has not given up yet and say that she will use the year they ahve back to win aki. But at the Final Volume they Akihisa and Mizuki were able to know their true feelings for each other that they kept for a long time with the help of Minami. Base on LN Akihisa to Mizuki 8 years while Mizuki to Akihisa 7 years. Yo Diría Que minami es en Realidad. Quien lucha Por El Amor de Akihisa Así Que En mi opinión yo creo que minami es quien se debe de quedar con el debido a que himeji nunca se ah esforzado en realidad yo veo que akihisa la quiera por que es muy inocente es estúpido y sin sentido fans de himeji no se ofendan por esto y ahora no hoy a querer sonar como miharu pero tiene razón el no se merese su atención eso es mi opinión yo voto por minami 70.

It's a love triangle with 2 popular ships... Frankly, having it where a girl was chosen, but another girl still has a chance is pretty good. While you can't get your hopes up for Minami, her fans don't have to lose hope. I just felt that Mizuki getting with Aki was kinda obvious, and a semi-open ending for the relationship isn't much of a surprise... But, it's still an interesting read and the ending wasn't half-bad... So I definitely would consider their relationship canon, though Minami still tries her best and even tries to persuade Himeji to give up on Akihisa. That said, I'm still a bit disappointed, I had hoped the Light Novel had a better ending than the anime... But the ending was actually better than anime. It gave a clear answer and it made him actually confess, and most of the couples actually got through and existed.... But endings are the hardest parts of stories. But the thing is, while it gave a clear answer about which ship for Aki was canon, it still left enough lee way for Minami fans to have a shot... I feel it was the best ending possible without being open ended... Though I disliked Yuuji's situation... Deathmailrock wrote: But the ending was actually better than anime.

I feel it was the best ending possible without being open ended... Yeah, that's right, though I hoped for a closed ending, as it is with a lot of visual novels...
