This supposed to be a wholesome episode but Maki's dad is just so annoying. But at least, Maki's character get some development. Besides that, there are also sweet and adorable moments between Maki and Umi.

This is definitely my favorite episode of the series. I am totally loving the development. That said, a big W for Maki this time. Not only did he resolve his issues, but he also managed to make so much progress in his relationship. Totally the best episode so far!

Episode Context

After the two-part 'Family Sights' arc gave viewers a window into the warmth of the Asanagi household, Episode 10 flips the lens onto Maki's far more complicated domestic reality, making his emotional reckoning feel earned and long overdue. Positioned at Episode 10 of 12, this is the season's emotional climax, the breaking point that clears the relational and personal obstacles standing between the two leads. It directly paves the way for Episode 11, 'New Year's as Lovers,' signaling that what Maki confronts here reshapes the central dynamic heading into the finale.
