It turns out that is the kind of help that Yuri is asking. Or rather, going steady with them would be like double date though they will be the 'invisible' pair who gives advice. Even if Yuri is really proactive in helping Suiren with her love life and seems to know a lot about romance, she does lack self-confidence with herself. She knows what to do yet she cannot bring herself to do it. Of course, for her to tell Daisuke that she wants to go further with their relationship is already a big step towards smooth-sailing for them. Daisuke has a few relationships but from what he said, they aren't his type. For this couple, it seems that they are each other's type = being cute? ^^; Even if the main couple is fixed, the mangaka isn't doing the typical thing since the friends aren't being paired off to the characters whom we already know. And if she does, it would be a surprise like with Atohira and Koharu. Anyway, the couple helping the two seemed to help them know each other more or at least, see the side that they haven't seen before. In a way, if they do spend more time and do all sorts of things together, they'll get to know each other more. Maybe this will somehow help Kawasumi think of spending more time together rather than for them tell each other's likes and do not likes to know more of each other. ^^ Lastly, I don't know what kind of movie they watched but it must be non-action to make Kawasumi fall asleep. Iirc, they watched a movie before so could it be that Kawasumi slept through it? Well, if it is a slow-paced movie. Amusingly though, I think the one Daisuke is describing as the 'girls ideal' is either Kawasumi or Atohira. =P Scans by all★wink汉化组
