Mizuki already has two things confirmed: first, there is no cause to feel envious of Man-San, who turns out to be his biggest fan, and second, Yoh adores him while acting distant and uninterested in him, as the latter can be easily envious of the former. Meanwhile, Yoh is experiencing a crisis with his feelings as well as his professional career as a manga artist. Find out what happens next in ‘My Personal Weatherman‘, Episode 5.

Episode 5
Yoh receives word from his publishing editor that his manga will no longer be published because of poor sales, which will leave him jobless. His editor believes that all of his male characters are excessively intelligent, and attractive, and have the Knight in Shining Armor Syndrome, which is more appropriate for shoujo mangas than erotica ones. He couldn’t help but think that it was Mizuki’s fault, as he couldn’t stop himself from drawing characters in his likeness. He goes home in low spirits and finds himself unable to do any of his household chores.
Mizuki arrives home to discover Yoh motionless in the laundry room, the washing machine still running in the background. He catches Yoh’s upset expression just as he is ready to complain that Yoh hasn’t been returning his calls. He leads him to the living room and embraces him from behind. Yoh says nothing as Mizuki makes an effort to get his attention. He won’t drink the water from the glass, so Mizuki decides to take a drink and give it to him by kissing him. After successfully making him drink water, Mizuki starts to prepare dinner for the both of them, seeing that Yoh will not do it. He also feeds him, making Yoh surprised that the food is actually delicious, as Mizuki has never cooked for him before. Mizuki then tells Yoh to shower with him.
Squeezed in the tub, with him in between Mizuki’s arms, Yoh finally tells him that he has been fired and that his manga is a failure. Before going to bed, Mizuki blow-dries Yoh’s hair and compares him to a wind shift, or a nagi. Where the wind may stay still or move, but another wind will blow again and change its trajectory. Mizuki brings Yoh to his own bedroom and cuddles him to sleep, where Yoh apologizes for failing to do his household chores. To his surprise, Mizuki tells him he is happy to be able to take care of him. Yoh couldn’t help but think again that they felt like a real couple. He starts kissing Mizuki and initiating sex, thinking that it will distract him from the sadness and despair that he feels.
