When they said what Hyouka is in English, I thought that "I scream" immediately, but then rejected the idea, it being so lame. I guess I should have believed Houtarou when he said it's lame. But considering behind the name was a high schooler, and even more so back in those times, such lameness is to be accepted if not expected.

In any case that was quite a satisfying conclusion to the arc, explaining perfectly why Chitanda was crying. If she doesn't fall for Houtarou, or already hasn't, I don't know what kind of a guy would catch her attention.
