EPISODE REVIEWS

This episode is very Yamato-focused. Love that despite the heavy backstory, the boys made it light with their support and care for Yamato. It is so heartwarming to see them feel for their teammate and friend.

EXTRA EXTRA, Yamato confesses everything!! That's the episode, and it's perfect. After several chapters developing Yamato's mental breakdown, having an entire episode of him freeing himself from his heavy burden and confessing everything feels comforting and not at all burdensome. Nagi calls all the friends to witness this great moment, and it's hilarious to see the other idols trying to console or empathize with Yamato in their own ways. The ending is liberating for both Yamato and his group, and it feels heartwarming how, after so much self-loathing, Yamato now understands that his personality can also be an advantage.

Huge props to the director for those Yamato focused camera angles this episode. You could really sense his struggle. He looked so tiny against everything but that fierce determination still shone right through.
