Three Budoukan episodes already, and zero progress. Maina is still all mopey ("oh one day I'll show Eripiyo my real feelings, yes, one day") and Eripiyo is every day more certain that Maina hates her.
I was surprised to find that most Cham girls have already graduated high school and are working adults. Maina really have no excuse to be so effing useless. Take the train scene. It's late at night, they are both done working and ready to return home; they are totally free. They meet by chance on the train. After a long, awkward silence, Eripiyo says "sorry to be breathing the same air as you, I'll move to another wagon" and leaves. And Maina... does nothing. >_< For fuck's sake, girl, ask her to join you for a drink! If it goes on like this, we'll reach the end of the show with no changes.
PS: I'm so mad at those staff women. Am I the only one who wants to kick their sorry asses for not telling Maina that they lost the tanzoku package Eripiyo sent her?
I think it was quite clear that for Eripyo, their relationship is limited to a fan-idol one, there's a barrier between them and Eripyo can't cross it (remember Eripyo and Kumasa's reaction when Mutoi said he wanted Sorane as his gf), that's why Maina seems so cold because she seems to see her as something more than a fan. And I don't agree, there was definitely progress between Eripyo and Maina. Maina's finally verbalized her true feelings about Eripyo and Eripyo finally knows that Maina doesn't despise her. They're taking baby steps.
But I hope that their relationship won't turn into a romantic one, it seems so wrong. An idol going out with a woota doesn't sound like a healthy relationship, plus Eripyo seems to worship her more than anything else.
Anyway, Yumeri best girl !
