I read Hayato's story first, so this felt more lighthearted to me. If I had read this first, I would have disliked Hayato for scaring Akiha like that. But now that I know he was just excited not to be so lonely, it makes it even more sad. I am happy Akiha met Yukuri and could find love despite being possessed by a fox spirit. His spirit possession is very different than Hayato's so that was interesting too.
