EPISODE CONTEXT
As the first of twelve episodes, 'First Stroke' is pure setup — it exists to establish Natsuko Hirose's emotional state, creative struggles, and the reality-fantasy tension that will define the series. No prior episodes to reference, but the groundwork laid here feeds directly into Episode 2, 'Defend,' where Natsuko's connection to a group called the Nine Soldiers begins to crystallize, shifting the narrative from introspective character study toward its larger action-fantasy framework.
