Episode 8

Everyone's Reactions

Haoka-chan’s reaction was so adorably 'Haoka-chaan!' that it made me chuckle. Her dad’s stubbornness is endearing, especially since he’s doing this because he’s been through it himself. The scenes with the girls fresh from the bath and the high-pressure interview perfectly blend everyday warmth with tension, leaving you feeling cozy. It feels like something’s bound to happen between the two of them, and I’m curious how the rest of the class will join in for the next move. This episode, with Haoka’s growth intertwining with her dad’s presence, was truly a wonderful awakening.
