I do like Saku telling Kenta he was the one who was labeling Saku, Yua, and Yuuko. Of course there must be reasons he was quick to do that, and he was a victim of that. We can see in the last episode that Saku was in the bookstore after he & Yua failed to get Kenta out of the previous week. He put in the effort to hold a conversation with Kenta. The other thing that is clear is he wants to help Kenta, but he doesn’t want Kenta to depend on him. Guiding him, basically.
Though it makes his conversation with Kazuki pretty good because he tells Saku to cut the bullshit out. Saku can sugarcoat it how he wants, but Saku is a good guy deep inside even if he pretends he isn’t. Also with Kazuki, his saying he doesn’t discriminate is key. Like he won’t put Kenta down saying he can’t do it, but there is nothing he saw from Kenta from day 1 that makes him seem like the type that would be committed to change in the long term.
I also really liked the ending scene with Kura. Essentially, life doesn’t go the way we want it to. Sometimes we drag people down because it can make us feel better. Which, of course, is not a good thing. But the biggest thing he said is nobody has a perfect compass. Life doesn’t always go 100% how you want it. Essentially, you will make mistakes. Though when you encounter those mistakes, still believing in yourself is the real key in life.
