More Than a Married Couple But Not Lovers Episode 11 Review

Episode 11 of More Than A Married Couple But Not Lovers starts with Akari, who is now at the beach house after coming from the beach in the evening. Her friends started asking her whereabouts as she and Jiro too went outside for a long.

She just said she was stargazing at the beach & got asleep, and somehow manage to prevent them from more questioning. As we already know, last night Akari & Jiro had to hide, and it was awkward for both of them as the way it suddenly happened because Shiori and her friend Hamano came to that place out of nowhere.

That’s why the next morning, when Jiro went to the washroom, Akari keep teasing him by saying she won’t mention it to others about the last night. Anyway, later Jio had to go to his part-time job with Shiori at the local shop in the kitchen. While talking about random things, suddenly Shiori told him that last night while she was on the beach she heard some people making strange sounds, which immediately made Jiro startled.

He just told her she probably misheard something and managed to prevent her from thinking more about that topic. Actually, Shiori knew the people whom he heard, were Jiro & Akari as he saw Jiro coming later after Akari yesterday.

Anyhow, that day all the friends of Akari, Shiori & Jiro planned to play a game which will be divided into two groups each. That’s why Shiori was worried as she thought other guys might think of her as useless as she was easily scared at night. Jiro consoled her saying it will be ok, and he hoped if they both paired with each then that will be great as he knows her too well and wouldn’t mind.

Later on that day, the groups were divided, and it was actually Kamo & Hamano’s idea to bring Shiori and Jiro closer as they knew they both liked each other. While Jiro & Shiori were in one group, another group was with Akari and Tenjin. In a particular task, they all have to search for something in the nearby forest and come back to a meeting spot.

While all of them successfully completed the task, Tenjin & Akari didn’t come. We got to know Akari has lost her phone and that’s why she couldn’t come. Hearing this, the group leader said it’s ok as the area is privately owned, so no danger will come, and go to your room. Jiro insisted on helping Akari, so he went on searching for her in the forest, which made Shiori wonder.

At that time, it also started raining. Akari lost her phone and also while searching for it divided from Tenjin, so she was crying under a tress as she lost the way. While she was expecting Jiro to come for her, Tenjin finally found her, and Akari thought it was Jiro, so she called Tenjin ‘Jiro’ which made both of them laugh. Later, Tenjin called the group leader to stop searching as he told him, he found Akari, and they will come as soon as the rain stops.

Meanwhile, Shiori came searching for Jiro with an umbrella and told him Tenjin found Akari which made Jiro somewhat upset. She told Shiori he was a loser when he knew Akari is with Tenjin still he uselessly went for her searching. Shiori stopped her and said he is very kind and not a loser.

She always spent time since childhood but has never seen this side of being a husband and wishes to know more of this side. She told him, She felt envy towards Akira as she got to see his this side daily and suddenly Shiori hugged Jiro and kissed him. And said if any side of Jiro which Akari didn’t know, She wishes to know from him.

On the other side, Akari & Tenjin were talking while Akari asked him why he laughed that time when she mistakenly called him Jiro. Tenjin told her it felt like an older brother getting introduced to his little sister’s boyfriend. Akari stopped her by saying she only loves Tenjin and wants to change pairs with Shiori when she will get an ‘A’ grade next month.

Before completing her sentence, Tenjin told her he already knows she likes him, but he loves someone else. Akari asked her if it was Shiori or anyone from their class. Tenjin told her it was not someone she knows. As a viewer we got to know, Tenjin loves his older brother’s girlfriend and after getting rejected by her, he can’t able to forget her still. He also cleared the misconception of Akari that he doesn’t like Shiori.

Tenjin consoled Akari and told her he can feel her situation as he himself is going into that process, but now he feels happy for Akari as she found Jiro. Akari told her Jiro likes someone else, and he replied she has to try harder as she did to express her love to him. This way they both wish good luck for them to get their love and Tenjin also said he will now try to move on and find his love.
