Torchwood and GX again

heleentje'To the Last Man' was absolutely beautiful! I've had to wait quite a while to see it, but I loved it. I really liked Kiss Kiss Bang Bang already, but that pales in comparison with this episode. I loved it, and very nice to have a Tosh-centric episode again.
And since I am still spazzing over yesterday's episode of GX and because I had nothing better to do and because I'm an obsessive Spiritshipper, I did some research
I have often wondered about the fact that Johan and Judai say each other's name an awful lot, and certainly a lot more than necessary in any conversation. When I talk to someone, I seldom use their names, while Judai and Johan tend to start and/or end every sentence with the other's name.
During yesterday's episode, in about 10 minutes, Johan said Judai's name 12 times (plus one more time in the flashback and once more in the next episode's preview, but I don't think those count). Judai said Johan's name 7 times, but 3 of those times it was about Johan or about something Johan owned (if my Japanese is any good). Remember that, for about half of those 10 minutes, Judai thought Johan was Mr.T, so that probably accounts for something.
The Spiritshipper in me wants to read a lot in this, of course.
Also, the scene where they both stand up reminded me a lot of their first meeting for some reason, with the handholding and all.
EDIT: Just thought of this, shouldn't Judai be keeling over from lack of sleep about right now? Think about it, he started of his day by dueling Sorano, then got a message from O'Brien, took a speed boat to Domino, dueled Saiou, escaped from an exploding building, dueled Johan and took the speed boat back to Duel Academy. Maybe the adrenaline has kept him upright until now, but, that's a very long and very intense day. Unless Yubel comes with an extra energy supply, I don't know how much longer he'll keep this up. Of course, since this is anime and there are different laws at work, he'll probably stay wide awake 'till the villain has been defeated.
