Watching Naoko and Aki from the Replicas milk cows at the farm in Fujiomiya is just so heartwarming. Meanwhile, the originals are leaning on each other with Akiya sporting that cute ☺️ expression, and it’s lovely seeing their solo trip and school trip unfold side by side. I was told there’d be a C-part, and I was relieved to see that precious smile—so tender I almost cried in the storyboard phase—was faithfully depicted. Shunna’s tough-girl pose during the school trip is adorable too, and every time, I’m soothed by how flawless the progression feels. As we head toward the finale, their bond seems to be deepening, so I can’t look away from what’s next.
