Right? In hindsight I am now 'Mahiru? Or.....?!' at that little aside, but it may more be Guren reacting to it and Shinya being oblivious yet at that point.

But haa. Yup, pretty much. I've enjoyed it thus far too. I'm more used to my protags instantly having some connection with the rest of the cast and that isn't so strongly the case with OnS. And considering the :l Yuu has over Hiragi except Shinya and Shinoa, lol. It's interesting to play off of, for sure!
