In episode 10 of More Than a Married Couple, But Not Lovers, the culmination of Jirō’s emotional journey unfolds as he confronts his feelings for both Akari and Shiori. The episode captures the tension and resolution of the romantic triangle while highlighting the growth of the characters throughout the series.
The episode begins with Jirō reflecting on the choices he made during the "marriage practical" and the feelings that have developed between him and Akari. As the project concludes, the students prepare for a final evaluation, which will determine their rankings and future partner assignments. This creates an atmosphere of anticipation and anxiety, particularly for Jirō, who is aware that he must make a clear decision about his romantic interests.
Throughout the episode, Jirō has heartfelt conversations with both Akari and Shiori, where they each express their feelings and concerns. Akari reveals her insecurities and fears about their relationship, acknowledging how much Jirō means to her. This moment allows Akari to show her vulnerability, which contrasts with her usual confident demeanor.

In a pivotal moment, Jirō finally admits to himself and to Akari that his feelings for her have grown deeper than friendship. He expresses his desire to explore a romantic relationship with her, breaking through the barriers of uncertainty that had previously held him back. This confession is both a relief and a turning point for Akari, who has longed for Jirō’s acknowledgment of their bond.
