| At first, Abiko was presented as mad but we become sympathetic to her. After all, her mentor's worked was butchered. With Aqua gaining insight on how plays are run, it looks like we are close to a breakthrough. |
| Kana faces <3 Also, like others I've been waiting for the Abiko-Yoriko arguing scene to be adapted. They totally nailed it. I almost cried when Abiko-sensei confessed that she hated how bad the Sweet Today adaptation was, it being her favourite manga of all time. This series has really high production values. |
 |
| Ruby wants to get busy with work, but can’t because of Arima‘a schedule. Aqua is thoroughly impressed by the stage around theatre. He learns it’s another work of Raida and GOA. Which makes him understand that Abiko wouldn’t be able to pull off a script suitable for this theatre setup. He understands that the problem lies in miscommunication. Aqua and the other cast meet Kichijouji to help reason with Abiko. But I can understand all her concerns and how she wants to draw a line to not interfere with others’ works. Kichijouji went to meet Abiko and damn, they started bashing each other with words. Shouting and teasing and dissing, that was funny. In the end, she gave Abiko the ticket Aqua gave, hoping it would change her mind. |

| Beautiful! Yoriko is the MVP! The ideal senpai. |

| Akane and Aqua's date was cute. I like them both. Also, we saw the struggles of a manga artist in this industry on weekly deadlines. I feel bad for all authors sometimes but at the same time, it isn't always the producer's fault either that your show ended up like that. I feel her tho. |
 |
| This episode was definitely a step up, Akane and Aqua and then the back and forth with the two female mangaka. Ruby meanwhile just annoyed me. Her story has always been less interesting for me than Aqua anyway, doesn't look like will change so far. Of course she has no part of Aqua's little side project so makes sense. |
 |
| Creators are humans too, what a beautiful episode between 2 mangakas duking it out and exposing each other's weakness that came around to accepting their own faults. Abiko pls 2 hours of sleep per day will kill you eventually |
| God what a hateful character, I don't know how to relate to others, buu buu, I'm an egomaniac, buu buu, but since I'm a genius I forgive everything, when we've all seen how the industry isn't like that, we've all seen great manga adapted horribly, great mangakas who from the beginning get involved in the project so that everything goes relatively as they want, how many great works have been reduced to commercial whims, but since she is a "I am different, introverted and unique" she misses everything, this had already been presented in Shirobako |
 |
| This episode gives me Bakuman flashbacks especially with the part about pressuring the mangakas to not end their work. This is pretty much Aka and Mengo's self-inserts ranting about their RL experiences, and I love it. |
| Well, it's understandable that the author is going crazy with this hardcore Oda type schedule where she sleeps 2h max per day for her Jigokuraku rip-off manga LMAO, at least things are getting better in the end, meanwhile Aqua is learning and growing |
 |
| Seems like we're building up to the author's character development. The scriptwriter might not be kicked off the project after all. |
 |
| Hopefully sensei will have a change of heart after watching the play! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| The way they hyped up the Stage Around thing made me thought that I need to experience it at least once in my life. Alas, it's said on Wikipedia that it was closed five months ago. |
 |
| Abiko and Yoriko sure gave it as good as they got it when it came to that debate over the manga creative process. It's good that she has someone she can see as an equal, who can also take her banter! Aqua was so smart to give Yoriko that ticket to give to Abiko, hopefully this will cause a change in her perspective. |
 |
| I never heard about 360° theater before, I like it when I learn new stuff But looking about this "IHI Stage Around Tokyo" I've seen it closed in April 2024 though, it was probably too costly to do, or are they rebranding it ? Are others places doing it like this ? |

| I seriously dislike Yoriko. She literally let them do whatever they want with her manga while she acts like like an ass to Melt, he did nothing wrong, being a bad actor doesn't mean he deserve the author's strong dislike, I found hypocritical her stance, if she really wants others to let whatever they want with her manga, she needs to stop being a bitch towards a single actor. |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
| I love how kind sensei is. |
| Anime is fun. |
