Seki and Koshou? I always viewed the small acts of care they showed to each other during their time in the rebellion together with a heart-warming attitude. Say...when Seki tells Suzu she can flee...or when he stays with her and worries about her personal quarrel with Shokou...and when she puts her hand in his shoulder in Episode 38...:3

I must be the only one who notices all of this. :(

Nope you are not the only person.

Did you also catch the interaction between Shoukei and Kantai?

I did, and I noticed it's popular(I got a lot of good Kantai/Shoukei fanart from a Japanese site I found dedicated to that!)

However, Kantai x Shoukei is a lot more popular than Seki x Suzu, which I have never seen mentioned(except for that one very great fanart of the three together and armed), so I was wondering about that. By the way, I also enjoyed Koshou and Suzu's interactions. Examples...

When Koshou was explaining his motives to Suzu in the tavern, as he was clutching his fists in rage, Suzu gave him some tea to calm him down. :3

Aaaaand after Koshou used Kantai's halberd to halt the Unkyou attacking Takuho from the north, Suzu was serving him rice balls. <333

I got the feeling that Koshou and Suzu had a thing for each other, and Sekki was kind of the three's company haha. Well I guess what I mean is that Suzu and Sekki seemed more like brother and sister, while Suzu and Koshou seemed more like a couple. That's the feeling I got from the book anyhow, the same with Kantai and Shoukei.

Somewhat. I hope they continued to meet after the events of the story(and wish we could see more of that, but I know it's not happening...)
