Misterinya mulai dikupas pelan-pelan. Tapi saya agak bingung dengan respons Yoshiki pada Hikaru. Udah jelas dia seposesif itu. Lumayan toxic dan mengekang ya hubungan mereka.

Episode Context

After Episode 2 raised serious suspicions about Hikaru's nature, Episode 3 forces Yoshiki to sit with that knowledge and resist it, making this a crucial emotional pivot point early in the season. It deepens the psychological foundation that the first two episodes established before the story shifts setting toward the Summer Festival in Episode 4, where maintaining the facade becomes even harder. At the quarter mark of this 12-episode run, the series is clearly building tension through character interiority rather than rushing toward revelations.
