Episode 5

Everyone's Reactions

Episode 5, "Section Chief Koji's Home Drinking Session," already gives off such a warm, cozy vibe from the title alone—you can practically feel the rom-com energy radiating through it. He ended up getting another girlfriend and even said, "Can't I have both?" but it seems people still thought he was struggling to juggle them, which made things feel a little bittersweet. There were also cute moments featuring Kumaman and animal-shaped wagashi (Japanese sweets), reminding us that the "cute uncle" charm is definitely one of the show's highlights. With plenty of fun reactions like "Wait, he's straight?!" and "I'd totally fall for him," you can tell everyone is really enjoying watching their dynamic unfold. Next up looks like it'll be the nephew's birthday arc, so I'm excited to see how much closer everyone gets!
