They just let us enjoy quickly and then went back with the hard stuff. I feel bad for Ryu especially now that he is quite involved in a scandal. Even a normal meet up can be twisted into something that can change the way people look at things and this is mostly true in the entertainment industry where every little thing is being nitpicked and taken out of context. Also, Tsumugi's line really hits different and I quite understand why she said that but still it's so sad to hear it coming from her.

This episode deals with a theme that I think anyone can see reflected in the entertainment industry today (especially in Asia), and that's how damaging romantic scandals can be, even if they're not true. We also learn the reason for Nagi's urgent need to remodel his house, but that's left somewhat unresolved. At least it's nice to hear him speak without that "foreign accent." Finally, the scene between Gaku, Tsumugi, and Riku is incredibly sad, and it breaks your heart to see Tsumugi resent her gender just for being the target of malicious comments. It's also very sweet to see how the idols support each other to try to dispel the rumors and help Ryu.

Watching this now requires serious mental prep. It’s just continuous emotional suffering at this point. I literally have to brace myself for heartbreak before every single episode. Pretty sure this show is turning me into a total masochist haha.
