| 20 mins feels like 5 mins. Kana burgundy hair so beautiful. |

| this episode was really enjoyable, i liked getting to know kana a bit better. not much ruby this episode, unfortunately. i liked how aqua’s acting role kind of mirrored his goals for this episode, using the role of the stalker to gain information similarly to how the father fed information to the stalker to manipulate him. i cannot state enough how much i like the OP and ED themes. |
| It just occurred to me, what's the endgame for Aqua? He finds the dude is he gonna kill him? Because he's pretty psycho-devoted to finding him but technically that person didn't do a crime. Unless he hired the stalker to kill her nothing illegal was done, right? |
| I love the details animation they use to express Kana in some scenes, also her voice actor did great too. Nice job. Next episode would be dope, can't wait to see Aqua's acting again. |

| Great ep!! Super sweet and interesting. Hearing how he tried 45k attempts at that phone password is crazy but awesome. Honestly I don't think this director is the dad. I feel like we'll get a very clear resemblance to the kids when we find him. This director doesn't even seem to have the same colour (which is important for me because Ai had purple hair, yet the kids ending up being full golden blonde). Subtle cliffhanger ending. Keen for Aqua to steal the show with his acting!! |

| I've gotta say after seeing 50 different parody versions of McDonald's in different anime, it's almost jarring seeing one correctly naming Facebook, Twitter, and Uber. |
| It’s funny how Aqua isn’t even arguing with others for calling him a sis con. Anyway, this episode was great. I hope to see a great dynamic between Aqua and Kana going forward. |
| Great episode 5/5 Two things I love in this adaptation: 1. They corrected the model of Ai's phone that Aqua is trying to crack the PIN. I remember in the manga it was a smartphone which does not match with the timeline before Ai got pregnant which is at least 16 years ago. In the anime it was a flip phone. 2. I really like the dull yet mysterious vibe or atmosphere that envelopes the show which really captures the absence of Ai. I can feel the gloominess both Aqua and Ruby are emanating. |
| Great episode, love how it's highlighting the negative side of the entertainment industry. It truly sucks when an amazing source is only used as promotional material and nothing more. Could totally relate to that with some of my favorite manga T-T Feel really bad for the author. Kana was pretty charming here. She was really annoying as a little kid but she definitely matured and I'm liking her development so far. Aqua, on the other hand, isn't particularly likeable so far but that last shot of him was way too cool lol. |
  "As promised, all that you seek, all that we desire, is prepared up there. On top of the Tower." |
| didn't like how abruptly it ended; i feel really bad for that girl. |
 |
| Kana really grown up, i mean in personality as well. Damn 14 volumes into half a season TV adaptation bruhh *flashback The Promised Neverland. Diving in more about acting industry and how cruel it was. |
 |
| We got more of Kana, LET'S FUKING GOOOOOOOO. There isn't a lot to say outside of it's such a great episode. well done. |
| Nice to see how Kana grew as a person after her encounter with Aqua as a child. Incredibly shitty though that her attempt to grow her career and rebuild the connections she burnt as a stuck-up kid are being taken advantage of. Maybe Aqua can help her get into Strawberry Productions so she won't be stuck with dirt freelance pay. Also seems that she may have developed a crush on him from that very brief meeting :3 Must be something that had to be missed out in the explanation of Aqua cracking into that 3rd phone of Ai's. All those contacts and only that producer is highlighted. Could've at least put a small reason as to why Aqua had his sights set on him. Really enjoy it when Aqua's eye star goes black. Visual cue that he's in serious mode. Aqua got the main thing he took the job for, but I'm guessing he'll be getting a bit of a bonus based on that cliffhanger. Not interested in anything else, so going to give it all he's got. Producer will likely want to catch him while he can. Like with Kana, Aqua's a looker and will put effort into his roles......and will likely do said roles for dirt cheap. While he's got the DNA now, Aqua could have the opportunity to get even more out of his target. |

| Another good episode. I love kana even more now, her personality is refreshing, not only she is adorable and funny to the core, but she also portrays her serious aspects well with her passion, hard work and knowledge in the industry. She knows what shes doing, the ups and downs of her career, isnt let down easily by rough phases, just keeps going. Shes definitely gone up in my good books. Also her caring and bonding with aqua is great even though aqua is not on the same level cause mans still focused on his objective, i can definitely see them together in the future, i sense the chemistry, also i hope she can stop him from going down too much towards the dark path cause it looks like he is going that way and maybe help him be a good actor one day like Ai wanted for him. Speaking of Aqua, got to see more of his dedication with finding Ai's kiiller, mans spent years focused on just opening a phone and it must not have been easy finding the resources as a kid much less spending time on just finding the password. He is a man of focus for sure and i kinda feel bad hes using kanna as means to further his purpose, i hope he finds a soft spot for her seeing she genuinely cares for him. But he keeps seeing the dark side of people in the industry which doesnt make it easy for him. Also good to see more information and insight on the entertainment industry. The reality of how source materials like manga which are well written get ruined destroying the author's work, more importantly poor author having her hardwork of 14 volumes being cram into 6 episodes and has to see it personally on the set infront of her eyes and what set back and consequences it has later when the audience sees it.. Her lifeless eyes speaks volumes. All that just to cast eye candy sell out inexperience model actors, for which an experienced actor like kana and the production staff have to work their butts off to balance it out with their skills. This was well presented, so hats off to the writing again. Now i am wondering what does Aqua mean by "going out with a bang" is he gonna put on a stellar jaw dropping performance or hes just gonna do something so bizzare that will destroy everything and ruin the directors work and teach him a lesson to not do shitty adaptations. Lets see. Also i realized the easter of the sweet manga from kaguya sama which was a nice touch. it even made hayasaka cry lol  |
| Might as well GO OUT WITH A BANG |

| Live action adaptations are shit. |
| I'm a bit late to this episode coz I was grinding HSR lol. Wow four years of trying to find the password, that's impressive. Aqua's galaxy eyes are swirling in the moment lol. Great episode once again, can't wait to see Aqua blow it up next week. |
 Never ending plan to watch list... |
| Ok, now that was the first enjoyable episode for me. Need more Kana. |
