I love the disbelieving look on Domyouji's face when he looks at Shigeru singing at the piano. And Makino is stuffing her face and pretending nothing is wrong with her or the situation. Poor girl.
While Kaede is gloating, Makino looks like she would like to use that fork on that evil woman. And the torture isn't over even then, since that witch is going all out to embarrass poor Makino.
There an announcement that there will be another piano performance, and then the spotlight lights on Makino. From the look on his face, it's clearly the first moment Tsukasa realizes that she's present at the party. Rui is amused at the situation and tells Makino to go knock their socks off :).
Heh, I loved Shigeru's reaction to Makino banging away at the piano: "pretty funky!" When Makino rushes away after wishing Domyouji happiness, YES, he runs after her and leaves his own party.
And then he storms off leaving the rest of the group staring amazed after him, because he has, of course, taken the wrong girl's arm and is dragging Shigeru instad of Makino away with him. His shocked expression when he sees Shigeru is hilarious. Then the resulting fight and the way she first attacks him with the traffic sign and then jumps on his back and bites his ear! Comedy gold :D.
Poor Makino is very uncomfortable when Shigeru shows up at Eitoku the next day. Though she notices how wacky the other girl is and wonders if she really is the daughter of the big corporation :). When Makino sees Domyouji come to the lounge, she jumps to the conclusion that he's there to see Shigeru and spins a tale of how they met in America and started dating and that's why Domyouji ignored her for so long.
He starts to say something to her, but then Shigeru turns up again and her words about "nibbling his ear" and his embarrassed reaction give the completely wrong impression about the closeness of their relationship to poor Makino (and everybody else in the lounge).
Shigeru really is a bit crazy, since later that evening she barges into Makino's home. Love how horrified Susuma is when she calls him cute and hugs him. But she's there to find out if there's something between Makino and Domyouji, and Makino assures her that there is nothing now. How uncomfortable for poor Tsukushi that the fiancée of the man she loves is trying to be best friends with her and enthusiastically gushes to her about her feelings for Domyouji.
Hmm, it seems Darth Kaede is somehow using the Domyouji corporation's situation to blackmail Tsukasa into acceptance with her plans. He's trapped in the situation and has no escape.
Hee, Tsukasa is butchering the Japanese language again while he's with the other guys. Then Rui asks him if he's not interested in Makino anymore and he goes on and on about his duty and obligations to other people.
Hee, my favourite scene in the entire episode, when Makino comes to the F4 lounge and finds Rui there. And he gets really close to her and she gets all flustered and uncomfortable and starts backing off. Then the next thing you know is that she falls down with Rui on top of her ("Go for the kill, girl", indeed *g*). Heee!
"I panicked! Why is my heart pounding so hard?" - Pretty obvious, I would think! Oh, Hanazawa Rui!
Heh, Akira and Soujiro's date with Shigeru was pretty hilarious. She really made those guys suffer :). I love it how Akira and Soujiro are such big Tsukushi/Tsukasa shippers and are advicing Makino to do something before Shigeru steals Tsukasa away.
Oooh, Soujiro on a motorbike!!!! Yum! And then some Yuki/Soujiro shippy goodness, when she comes to thank him for his words to Makino and they are so cute and smiling together. Love the secondary OTP (Shi Men/Shiao You was my favourite in Meteor Garden as well)!
*roffle* Domyouji's number is in that golden monstrosity of a mobile phone as "Almighty me" :D. Then Makino finally gets enough courage to try calling Domyouji. She was crying and saying how amazing it is to be able to talk wih him again since she thought she would never hear his voice on that special phone again. Aww. You can just see how her words are killing him and he's on the brink of tears as well. He starts to say something to her, but she interrupts him with the exact words he used to declare their first date in Season 1.
Makino looks so uncertain, but cautiously hopeful while preparing for the date and when she hangs the Saturn necklace on her neck. And she's running towards the meeting place and is clutching the necklace in her hand. But when she gets there, she sees Tsukasa at the plaza with Shigeru and she's kissing him. Shock, horror! Oh, the angst! All her hopes are dashed in that one moment. I will definitely have to continue with the next episode tomorrow...
