Episode 8

Everyone's Reactions

Kouichi's tendency to get swept up by his surroundings is like a sponge—adorable, but a little nerve-wracking. True to the episode title 'Don't underestimate this job,' you can feel how seriously he takes his work despite lacking some inner drive. I felt like I'd probably mess up and get fired within five minutes! While Yanagi's ambition is impressive, she's mostly just nurturing her own soldiers, so I'm a bit curious if Kouichi and the others will truly grow. His facial expressions are changing too, setting up the new chapter in 2026 nicely. I'm looking forward to seeing how Kouichi's honest reactions play out as he gets tossed around by his next job.
