EPISODE CONTEXT

Coming off the premiere's introduction of Goro's baseball obsession and hero worship of his father, this episode deepens the personal stakes by revealing Shigeharu's own professional struggles, adding dimension to Goro's motivations. It's the second piece of essential character scaffolding in what is a deliberately paced early stretch of Season 1. The emotional and relational groundwork laid here directly feeds into the complexities the series will escalate across the coming episodes.
