I was caught off guard when Shion finally admitted he has feelings for Rui too, even if it took a total identity crisis for him to get to that point during the bed scene.

It is pretty clear that Rui sees the real Shion through that female appearance, but the pacing felt really disjointed because the script jumped through the emotional realization way too fast. The episode needed more focus on Shion reflecting on how he treated women in the past because that character growth was the most interesting part of the manga chapters they adapted.

The animation quality during the intimacy was pretty rough and the story feels rushed since they squeezed three whole manga chapters into one short episode

Rui showing he cares about Shion regardless of the gender swap is actually sweet and he proved it by how he handled Shion crying about his identity tonight

I feel so bad for Shion because he spent the whole episode questioning if Rui actually loves him or just the girl body and that talk about his womanizing past made me sad

seven minutes is not enough time but they squeezed in a lot of character development with Shion finally understanding why he was such a jerk to girls before

This series does a good job of making the spice part of the character arc, and Shion finally understanding his past mistakes during the hookup was actually a smart move

you really see how much Shion has changed now that he knows what it feels like to be on the receiving end of someone like his old self

the way Rui told Shion he would prove his feelings really hit me because it shows they are way past just being bros now

watching Shion get vulnerable and admit he never cared about his partners before was the most growth he has shown in the whole series

Rui is being so intense today and you can tell Shion is starting to lose his mind trying to figure out these new feelings

the episode went by so fast but seeing Shion think about all the girls he ignored in the past was a heavy moment for a show like this

seeing the sex scenes actually move the plot forward is rare and that moment where they finally connected felt like it mattered for Shion as a person

It was surprising to see Shion reflect on his past misogyny while he was with Rui because I usually expect these short episodes to be mindless, but his realization about how he treated women before the transformation gave their intimacy so much more weight this time and made the whole relationship feel more real than it did at the start

I felt bad for Shion when he realized how trash he used to be to women and seeing it from the other side really changed things between him and Rui

That drug plot is still so weird and it makes the romance feel forced and i do not think Rui is being a very good friend right now and the animation looked wonky

Rui is definitely the best part of this show and he knows exactly what to say to make Shion blush and the visuals during the spicy parts were actually decent for a short

The plot moves so fast in these short episodes and sometimes it feels like we skip the best parts and Rui is cool but I want to see Shion struggle more with the change

Shion looks way too cute when she gets flustered like that and Rui is being so aggressive and that ending scene really lived up to the title

Shion trying to figure out if he likes Rui as a guy or a girl while being pinned down was such a great way to handle that conflict

EPISODE CONTEXT

With only one episode remaining after this, Episode 7 functions as the series' emotional peak — the moment where everything the prior six episodes have been building toward comes to a head. Episode 6 forced Shion and Rui to confront the weight of their shifting dynamic, and this episode follows that reckoning with direct, personal stakes. What happens here sets the emotional foundation for the finale.
