What I figure about comparing it to Yuka was that it was quite clear to Minami that Tatsuya was blowing her off constantly (throwing out her pictures, etc). She was also younger and less overtly sexual. The college girl actually kissed him (I don't think Yuka ever managed that) and she was alone with Tatsuya a great distance away. Minami would know less of what was going on and her imagination would run away with her further. I think she was also concerned with how he gave up baseball. With Yuka, she came along with the baseball territory, he was with it for Kazuya, but in giving up baseball it gave more credence to the whole "he's trying to escape his memories of Ka-chan" device. I'm not sure they really did technically do that in the TV. I think you’re right in that it redoes some of the conflicts…

I suggest waiting for a while, and then if you ever feel nostalgic for the old Touch gang, check it out then, because that's really what it's best as - a chance to have some more good times with this cast.
