*BOUND HEADPHONE WARNINGS*

Again, this show knocks it out of the park, as we get so many layers, so much depth, and so much to talk about with a very specific concept this week: The ties that "bind" us with family and relationships, and how that can truly be a "curse," for better...or for worse!

2026-09-25 17:00 When i was watching the end of this episode i did a research on the topic that Chiyo was angry and that actually happened in real life in Japan. Here a quote from reddit discussion about this topic and link of the news. "https://www.med.or.jp/nichiionline/article/006881.html Discriminatory practices targeting female applicants in entrance exams for Japanese medical universities have been uncovered. Furthermore, discriminatory practices targeting rōnin students (those with a high school diploma who delay university enrollment to study specifically for admission to a particular university) were later uncovered, becoming a major scandal. Given that the story takes place in January 2018, it can be considered a historically accurate representation.

Loved the reaction and discussion! The SK8 palm trees return! 😆 Various things I loved: Kasamachi’s grumpy face when he was on the phone and Makio listening with such a soft smile on her face 🥰 The whole approach of the episode as Asa watching everything and everyone around her to figure out what/how to write! How well Makio approached talking about the upcoming anniversary That transition of Emiri’s pencil lead dropping into the water I had no idea about that band, the idea of Grantz and Grimmjow in a band is absolute hilarity to me, amazing! 🤣 I will join that semi! 😆 I feel for Emiri in that moment in the café and the way she feels like she is now responsible for/”bound” to Asa in a way. But I also love the way the other redirects Emiri’s thinking, reminding her that it is okay to have a thought like that but that it is ultimately what she does that matters. And the shot of their hands! 🥹 My heart! 🌈 Probably the moment I love the most in this episode is that little scene with Juno and Makio! More Juno any time, please! 🥰 But I just love their relationship so much. The idea that Makio asked for that cute childhood photo, and noted that it would give her strength, is such a beautiful thing to say to someone. Like ‘your very existence brings me joy and motivation.’ 🥹 Really excellent discussion around the “curse” of family and the many ways we can experience this. 🫶 Looking forward to the next episode! 💙

Thank you for sharing those sources about the story with the medical schools. 🫶 I remember when that particular news dropped. My heart broke for Chiyo in that scene. 😔

Girl, I was so glad that we got to see Emiri exploring her sexuality and that that storyline wasn't just relegated to subtext and an awkard conversation. It also made me think how this whole thing hasn't only affected Asa but also Emiri. Because I'm not sure how much more longer it would have taken Emiri to feel confident enough about who she is as to start exploring it if it wasn't for Makio's encouragement and example into noncomformity. And it's clear to me that Emiri looks up to Makio, what with her thinking of what Makio would think and how she would react if she heard those girls talking in the coffee shop. Juno is so cool, and I love his whole vibe and wisdom. Yeah, Juno pointing out to Makio that she sign in for a deal that has no end is such a cool, touching moment. Of course, Makio being Makio hadn't realized it, but she can see it happening now, even with the photos on her phone, Asa and her are creating a bond that will not soon be broken. It's just been a year of them living together, and they have already left a huge mark on each other's lives.

I am glad that we got to see SUBTEXT with Emiri as well! And to see how a horrific event not only affects family, but friends of the family as well. And I love how Makio has become a source of inspiration for Emiri. It’s great! I love Makio also realizing how her taking on Asa has affected her, whether she wants to realize it or not. Thank you so much for the comment!!

Romania Black

Thank you so much for the information as well - that's just heartbreaking for Chiyo specifically, and neat that we get a real world tie-in to it all! Thanks for that and the comment!

Hahaha, look, I DID think of the SK8 Palm Trees when I bought this sweater! 😛 Kasamichi during that entire conversation with Makio was ADORABLE. I don’t blame Makio a bit for her reaction! I really like Asa’s “observation” approach as well this week. Lots of “Given” vibes! The emotional maturity of Makio and broaching the subject of the anniversary works so well. And yessss, that with Juno - I love them! I love their friendship and how Makio is realizing she does, in fact, love Asa in her own way. Emiri, the pencil metaphor, and everything with her this week I was NOT prepared for, but it was welcome! I love how the other tries to anchor Emiri as well – she is good for our gal, Emiri and I love that hand scene. I still am trying to wrap my mind around Grantz and Grimmjow in a band! WILD. Thank you for the comment and kind words and I’m excited for the next episode!
