A roller coaster episode. 
We get to see what delves inside aquas mind. 
Akanes acting is so impressive and terrifying at the same point it put even aqua in confusion. Props to her, she is really extraordinarily talented as an actress and lovable too. Also her switching back to normal was cute and good to know because it shows that she enters and exits ai mode on her method acting. 
Aqua and Kana's baseball catch outing was really wholesome and adorable.Her VA killed with every bit of dialogue and expressions. (The amount of animation and design in Kana's eyes is on another level jesus absoloutely beautiful). In my opinion Aqua is really himself the most and normal around Kana, smiling thinking about his inner feelings and his inner thoughts with his journey so far since being reborn which helped clear his mind of the delusional feelings he was having after ai's ghost in akane. He had a bit of peace of mind which i liked seeing.



That was until Akane accidentally stepped on the land mine called "ai" and her secrets  triggering Aquas dark mode back going into his obsessive path to track down the killer, Aqua picked up on akanes useful talent and unfortunately now pulled her into a fake relationship with the kiss to even saying he will use her as a tool and also on the other hand  broke kana's heart. I feel really bad for both the girls especially kana after the moments she had with him just before this. Atleast Aqua had bit of decency to tell akane half the truth that this is just a fake relationship without any feelings but then again not telling his ulterior motives which makes me worry.
Aqua really doesnt deserve to be with either of the girls as he is of now with his unhealthy and dangerous obssession to find the killer, he needs therapy the most.
Finally the only girl to walk out with something good in this episode, Memcho and she deserved it after being so supportive to everyone. Shes being recruited into B komachi and we will finally have our trio, so i guess the idol group will finally progress to bigger things in the future episodes. Cant wait to see that.

THIS SHOW IS SO GOOD
Also my first time watching on Hidive on a 4k TV 😍 the quality really makes a difference. It looks phenomenal. All the small details and effects I didn’t notice before are crazy

Akane played Ai so well omg
I love this show and all the romance plots 10/10

Keen to hear about Ai from the manager dude. Also keen to see this 3-girl idol group kick off!

Amazing episode again! Really this studio is doing a stellar job.

The expressions the girls make when they blush, its like reaching max affection or unlocking a new character in a game, it fits so well.

Is Akane is such a stellar actor I wonder why that was never brought up before? I guess she lacks personality to infuse her roles with though. Thinking about it all the famous top actors have their own charisma, its not about just playing the role well.

Most people don’t rate it until it’s finished plus the recency bias going on. However while we are speaking about scores… Your list is very weird.

Romance vibe doesnt suit aqua or show, i just want that mistery revealing and killing that bastard. I cant ship him cuz he is way to serious and other girls is either annoying, introvert of full of themself. This show still feels strong in aspect of idol, mistery , drama., i cant feel romance between characters or im only one cuz i dont find any of characters as romance ships or something.

Episode 8 brought a lot of amazing details and development for important characters of the show, but despite all of that it didn't feel like anything important happened. A lot of course did happen, but in terms of the overall mystery, almost nothing progressed which I'm pretty disappointed about, considering we are left with 3 episodes. However, still excited to finish the rest of the show and then move on to the manga!

Akane got tool-zoned. I would say... what a better way to treat the girl you just saved from suicide some weeks ago, am I right?

Also funny how the author went far and beyond to try to explain the reasoning behind his 40yo MC feeling attraction towards teenage girls. Aqua never showed any sign of mental struggle when he was a kid but now let's pretend he always had troubles with his thought process. Sure.

So... how is a forced love triangle gonna help us find the mastermind behind Ai's murder?

Aqua's being like Light Yagami and using women. Makes sense, considering how he's creeped out at himself for finding teenage girls attractive.

It's always fun in reincarnation stories where you see how the previous life and the current self merge together. I guess brain development and your environment affect your soul more than you'd think.

Search for Kiyotaka Ayanokoji… Stop comparing Aqua to Light Yagami. That comparison is just cringe at this point.


Funny, I was also thinking he is more like Ayanokouji, in the way that he has barely any personality outside of being an edgelord (but at least Aqua has more genuine reasons than Ayanokouji).

No he’s wrong. There is more subtext going on with the

Additionally the one he said that was left will never occur. The author has spoken about how he dislikes that trope.
he dislikes it? wow had the perfect set up and he blew it. so then no one? that is a shame

Aqua has finally sealed the deal with Love Now. Kissing Akane at the finale and breaking Kana Arima's heart.  Poor Arima. She just played catch with her crush.
Akane's excellent profiling and acting skills makes her a valuable asset to Aqua in knowing more about Ai. He cannot go his separate ways with her.
Akane is so cute when she's acting as Ai.

Also, possible recruitment of MEM-cho  for the new Komachi-B group? Let's gooooo!!!!

Seening Akane acting as Ai is pretty impressive because her talent.

The interactions of Aqua with Kana were my favourite thing this episode, quite funny to see Kana reactions.

Aqua using Akane, kinda hurts but it makes things more interesting to see him trying everything to achieve his goal.

Memcho being invited to join B komachi, good choice because the more of her the better.

I need more Memcho in my life she is so underrated I swear but absolutely amazing
