Besides, Micchy sucks at fighting, Kouta doesn't. And they had a plan. Kouta wasn't "stealing the spotlight" from Micchy. Where the hell was Mai in that battle four Micchy to show off to? Kouta said he'd handle the invess so Micchy could go after the others as per the plan.

You seem to have forgotten the plan. Being that Micchy is going to distract Zangetsu while Kouta tries to find answers fom the workers. Micchy is taking the risk, a risk Kouta thinks is even greater since his only experience with Zangetsu is nearly being killed. That's a lot of faith to put into someone you're supposedly crapping on. You seem to be letting your character bias fabricate cicumstances. If Kouta was as over-protective as you say, would he for an instant let Micchy go against Zangetsu? No.

Me having a different opinion and my own interpretation is a real problem for you ain't it split =p

Micchy doesn't have to tell anyone, we know why, and my problem is that he also lets Kouta treat him that way.

DJ's show? She could easily see it on there. I'd like to think Micchy is smart enough to think of that (presumptious I know, but I like to over analyse and speculate =p) Kouta is also becoming a lot more competent in battle, there's every chance Micchy could have trained offscreen. Again, I just feel like he hasn't been given the chance to show it.

Technically.. The plan, although Micchy's idea, was conceived as a way to make sure Micchy didn't have to deal with Zangetsu. Either completely or at least not on his own. Now I'm just being pedantic =p Although wouldn't Kouta beating the invess technically be cheating in the game too? It'd be interesting to see if that has any repercussions later when/if the others find out. But yeah, I can see your point but for me, this episode Kouta just didn't let Micchy have his chance to shine like he should have; repping the team and getting a form change. Bias? Yes. But I also feel like there's greater story potential there too. =]
