Akio, you have nice turns of phrase, but your points aren't clear and you have no textual support. I can't give this a passing grade.

Like he'd ever procrastinate on an issue like that. 
Sadly I saw the 'dungeon' part and immediately thought your joke involved RPGs. Too much Xenosaga and FF12 for me.

Akio: Settle down, have a family with that nice Kanae girl. Stop fucking underage girls. Be respectable.
The first time you looked at her curves you were hooked
And the glances you took, took hold of you and demanded that you stay
And sunk in their teeth, bit your heart and released

Touché! I like that Akio and Touga's resolutions conveniently exclude anything about refraining from sex with men. 
Saionji's rings depressingly true, though. Poor guy.

Re: New Years Resolutions!...oh, I mean "revolutions"!
I know. I was going to just redo the resolution when I realized that Wakaba probably wouldn't have him until he took those classes. And that "stop fucking" is not remotely accurate. Since he's probably still a virgin and all.
Wakaba: dye her hair purple and get a tan.
