EPISODE CONTEXT

As the first of only two episodes, this installment carries the full weight of series setup — introducing Kazu, defining his relationship with Fumi, and establishing the show's thematic territory around fandom and blurred personal boundaries. Nothing precedes it, making every character beat and tonal choice foundational. Episode 2 will need to deliver on the dynamics seeded here, making this episode essential viewing rather than optional groundwork.
