Major Spoilers From Blue Box Episode 21
What To Expect From Blue Box Episode 21
As mentioned before, Blue Box Episode 21 will finally start a new arc, and this is one that manga readers have been waiting for, all because of a certain ‘rejection‘. The official synopsis of Blue Box Episode 21 titled “A Chance to blossom” is:
Due to an accident at the school festival, rumors start to spread around the school that Taiki and Hina are dating. Taiki wants to clear up Chinatsu’s misunderstanding as soon as possible, but he can’t find a way to do so. Meanwhile, Chinatsu stays the night at her best friend Karen’s house and confesses something to her. Then Karen’s younger sister, Ayame, who is the complete opposite of Chinatsu and is free-spirited in love, shows up…
Chinatsu Returns, But Avoids the Topic
The episode will begin with Chinatsu telling Taiki that she’s moving back to his house since her grandfather’s surgery went well. Her mother will be going back, but for now, she will stay at Karen’s for the night.
Taiki wants to bring up the whole “play’s kiss” situation, but Chinatsu does not even mention it, acting like it didn’t bother her at all.
Chinatsu Admits Her Feelings (Sort Of)
While staying at Karen’s, Chinatsu will finally admit that she likes someone and that someone is Taiki. But she is not ready to fully accept it yet. She wants her feelings to grow naturally before fully acknowledging them.
That being said, what happened at the play did shake her up, and it does bother her, even if she is pretending otherwise.
Ayame Gets More Screentime
Our new girl Ayame will start getting more focus, as she will be joining the badminton team as the new manager. She and Taiki will get closer, but not in the way you might expect.
