EPISODE REVIEWS

Each episode leaves you with a heavier emotional weight than the last; in the end, Miku-chan lost everything without even knowing it. I really like the plot twists in this story—you don't expect something to happen, and then it does, keeping you constantly engaged. In the end, there are no good or bad people, just people. Though Ayase and Miku's dad was absolutely sickening, I'm just glad that storyline is over.

Episode 2 doubles down on emotional depth. Expressive animation and soft, melancholic music heighten the tragedy, while Kanaka’s brief wit keeps dark scenes grounded. Pacing sharpens character growth, building up to a shocking plot twist that leaves a haunting, lasting impression.

The story in this episode is beautifully written, showing that human relationships are often highly complex and filled with misunderstandings.
