Well now...Takuto just "confessed" as they put it in anime. Seems to be a much bigger deal for 'em than it would be for us, too. Yeesh...took him 40 episodes just to say "I like you"?

Still...could make for interesting times ahead.

With the higher subtly and general reserved politeness in the Japanese language 'like you' is reasonable to assume means 'love you'. IF the hearer gets the subtext right. The mistake she makes in is not surprising.
