Ok, so I managed to get some free time in the office to finish this post, before I leave~ I shall reply to the comments if I manage to snag a connection during my trip

I’ll save any comments I have on Mao x Kouichi x Yuumi after I watch the last episode of the series (which won’t be until next week coz I wasn’t able to bring my copy of the last KimiKiss episode with me T__T), as it will highly depend on what the outcome of this love polygon will be. For now, since we all know the glorious Asuka has been sealed a bittersweet ending, I’ll be showing how things would’ve went for her, if she was fated to have a happy ending. I’ll be providing snapshots of the second volume of the KimiKiss ~various heroines~ manga on this one, the Kouichi x Asuka arc.

The manga is just pure fluff, more ecchi and sweet (it’s a little bit contradicting I know), so much unlike the anime. While I applaud Kasai for successfully transforming the KimiKiss heroines into 3D realistic characters, it also became detrimental in that some of them became flawed and unlikeable, especially Mao and Kouichi.

So here’s this Asuka-centric post, for those who want to take a break from the serious drama of the KimiKiss anime, or those who want to see the alternate happy ending with Asuka x Kouichi

This will just be a more detailed version of what I posted in my previous deep frying, which was bundled together with the super more ecchi Mao x Kouichi route, among others x__x;;;

The Meeting

One sunny afternoon, Kouichi was on his way home, when he gets hit by a soccer ball. Thanks to this, he was able to meet the genki Asuka~

Kibina High doesn’t have a girl’s soccer team, which explains Kouichi’s surprise when he saw Asuka playing soccer. He was impressed by her love for the game, considering how she even goes as far as practicing with the guy’s team just to play the sport she loves. Now that I think about it, I actually wonder why Asuka chose Kibina High out of other schools which supposedly has a soccer team for girls :p

After seeing Kouichi’s potential in soccer (just because he successfully handled one of her passes lol), she asks him to be his practice mate. Kouichi was more than happy with the turn of events, considering that he’ll be able to spend time with a hottie! w00t! The attraction is clear right from the start. See all that blush in Kouichi’s face? btw, Mao has been completely left out of the picture on this one, so we see nothing else but Asuka x Kouichi’s own little world~

Getting To Know Each Other

The practice sessions paved the way for Kouichi to get to know Asuka better, more than just being a soccer fanatic.

One rainy day, with Kouchi unable to spend time with Asuka on the field, he finds her by the pool, waiting for the rain to abate. Kouichi waits a little while for her, and offers to share his umbrella as they walk home together. It was a moment of awkward closeness, which led Asuka to confess that it’s her first time to have ever done this with a guy. With this, Kouichi learns that Asuka has never had a boyfriend. The only confession she ever got in her entire life was from one of her female fans. As for guys, none of them see her as more than a friend. (same with Kazuki :roll:)

Love Coach Development

Aside from being Asuka’s soccer coach, Kouichi becomes her love coach as well. They spend time like a couple as part of this love practice sessions, going out on some sort of date as they go to the game center and such. Kouichi just turned a little ecchi as she suddenly asks Asuka if she wants to practice on kissing, in which she stops him midway. She tells him that kissing on the lips is like Olympic caliber, but a kiss on the cheek is alright. cute X3

Similar to the anime, Asuka asked Kouichi’s help in her studies because of her academic weakness. Kouichi was more than happy to be of help to the lovely Asuka. Asuka confides about her dream of becoming a professional soccer player to Kouichi, who agrees to support her in achieving that dream :3 Asuka managed to pass the exams thanks to Kouichi, so she gives him a reward *chuu*

The Special Move “Asuka Turn”

With the succeeding practice games they had, Asuka was able to perfect her special Asuka Turn move, a feat she thought to be impossible had it not been for Kouichi. It’s the labor of their love, so to speak

I would’ve liked it if the anime featured Asuka’s “Asuka Turn”, the affectionate name she gave for that special move of hers, shown in episode 23. That would’ve been real cool =/

The Confession

the steamy kiss scene. Could you believe that nothing else happens after this?

The last chapters featured Asuka and Kouichi on a beach-onsen exclusive overnight date, which showed some rather steamy scenes, especially the kissing scene after their confession. It manages to be sweet nonetheless, thanks to Asuka and Kouichi’s naiveness and blushful moments :3

Since the story of the manga just revolved around Kouichi and Asuka, it wasn’t surprising that they developed feelings for each other as they get to spend time together. Kouichi was already attracted to Asuka from the start, and that love grew as he got to know her better. Asuka has been harboring feelings for Kouichi since they met, but didn’t outright confess to him for fear of being rejected again. Kouichi himself hesitated to confess to Asuka for the same reason, as he considers himself as an ordinary guy compared to Asuka who’s like beyond his level (excels in sports, and is set on her dreams).

But, as Kouichi gains the courage to confess… Asuka is more than happy to know that he feels the same way for her too~ :3 Asuka was scouted for the Women’s Soccer League so she was sent abroad for three months training (from what I can remember). But of course, love prevails! And their love will remain strong despite the distance (and it’s not really permanent like Yuumi’s transfer) x3
