My Boss, My Hero Episode 9

Like expected

The humour is pretty much gone in this episode. It was expected though, since it's approaching the end, they need to get serious and handle the boss matter. They're getting more and more intense. This episode also has some very touching scenes. His speech really made me cry. (Well, except for the beginning of course XD ...). He truly acquired a new perspective on life; it's incredibly touching to hear him speak about his friends and having that inner fight with his own feelings about the future.

I'm STILL not sure how I feel about his brother. He's not the bad guy for sure, but he's obviously not being entirely honest to Makio either. I just don't understand his mind. I feel that he cares for his brother and wants him to be happy, but doesn't have the slightest intention of giving up on the boss position either. I expected his shell to crack near the end of the drama and reveal his true self, but he's still so composed all the time, wearing that fake smile. It seems they won't lead the association together after all. I still think this would be an ideal ending.
