The bully getting beat up felt so good. His classmate's crush looking exactly like a genderbent version of him is sending me. This guy roaring about youth while looking middle-aged is ironic. Animation is melty and off-model this episode but the soundtrack carries as always.

Another show off episode. The members get ready to put on a performance and witness yet another performance happening behind closed doors. Together combined, creates a satisfying episode. It comes together well, even if the ending might feel a bit conflicting.

Episode Context

Episode 13 marks the series midpoint and serves as a crucial bridge between the fallout of 'Secret Live', where Koyuki's stage experience and Ryusuke's personal tragedy shifted the emotional landscape, and the challenges ahead in 'Dream.' This is a recalibration episode, grounding the characters in aftermath while planting the seeds for the next wave of musical and personal stakes that will define the back half of the series.
