I just wanna get high with my lover~ 🎵 I think I understood the whole story, but it still feels pretty confusing. Like, why the hell did everything that happened near the end happen? I thought there was more to this, but maybe not. |

@machy871 THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. thanks for the disclaimer, im sure no one will talk about the manga now. anyway, here's my explaination: Lets start with the basics: Im pretty sure its a guy crossdressing. I see someone mention "oh we see him as a girl first, so i think its a girl" or something like that, but they're in public. the same public where he cross dresses. We then flash BACKWARDS. to when she first... i guess falls in love with him? i guess its kind of unclear if she already liked him before this. who knows. The scene with her in the window is most likely the first time she realizes they might be the same person, hence the next scene of her pondering the subject. And the fancy tree transition Is just a visual of that concept, I don't think thats something that ever actually happens (idk if anyone was arguing that it was, but im just bringing that up) So now that black haired MC is on to him, she starts noticing him dressed up in public more, hence the following scenes of her sprinting after him. I'm not a girl, but i would assume that at least some girls find crossdressing... attractive? idk. I think if I saw a girl dressed as a guy, but I knew it was a girl......... hmmm..... I dunno anymore nevermind. Back on topic. The next scenes are kind of irrelevant, just standard "morning routine" stuff, and yes, the random helicopter in the back. next scenes are just showing him enjoying crossdressing, nothing really interesting to talk about. There is the working out scene, in which yes, he does have brown eyes, but brown doesnt match his eye colour we saw earler, and it doesnt match the green, so tbh I actually have no explaination for that. To be fair, if one has green contacts, chances are they have some other colours too. so him also having brown contacts isnt too far fetched. On the assumption that is in fact the same guy, and not some random npc no one cares about, then it does make sense, as im assuming you have to be atleast relatively fit to enter the military. Which we see him do later. I don't think its the black haired girl main mc girl thing girl, because she has no incentive to work out. atleast not that we've seen. Just a question about the Idol scene, its not like we see an audience. This might just be him having fun again crossdressing by himself. Either that, or thats just the black haired girl mc's dream (i need to find a better way to refer to her). Hence why we see her wake up immediately after. I guess, if he is actually an idol (ignore the fact he had no audience), then the first person he was talking to being his manager makes sense, as he's all happy and cheeful, and the second person he talks to being some sort of military official makes sense, hence why he's all serious all of a sudden. I would say it's like an interview or something, but I doubt they'd do that in a coffee shop. So maybe it's just mission breifing or something. I'm going to take peoples word on the translation of the blackboard being something like "congrats special soldier", in which case maybe their plan was "oh something is going on, we're going to reveal this to your school as a way to get you out of school, so you can focus on this upcoming issue" -> This would explain why she's kind of sad. Can't see him in school anymore. (i'm assuming thats how that works. I would imagine it's hard to be part of the military while simultaneously at school all day) now that im actually typing this stuff out my grasp on the situation is less than I thought oh no. Ah well im going to continue no one can stop me. I just clicked "Anime Discussion Rules" and got sent to another window and nearly had a heart attack thinking my reply was lost. anyway The military clearly anticipate whatever is about to happen, given they're stationed before the warning actually happens. Thingy eclipses the sun, I'm like 95% sure its a..... idk spaceship of sorts? It can't be the moon. i'll explain in about 5 seconds. Train time, She notices his hands are hurt, presumably from extra military work and/or training We see buildings burning, and a giant spherical thing, too close to be the moon -> its not the moon Next scene we see a giant spherical thing in the top left corner, which literally can't be the moon, because our camera is not even like 5 kilometers above ground (thats being generous) and we can already see the back/underside of it Gonna be honest with you I have no clue how they got out of the train. Its not like the train was on ground level I think I saw people talking about crossdressing man saving black haired mc at the speed of light or something? i uhh... i dont think so? When she looks up, she clearly see's someone, and she runs towards them. She sees the guy standing just willy nilly. It's hard to tell because its only on screen for like 5 frames, but the figure we see runing across screen with pink hair crossdressing man on screen ISNT the black haired mc girl. Notice how when he turns around he literally doesn't look at the figure that just crossed the screen. They are running towards each other. Normal human pace. No speed of light involved. I presume the lightning attacks just confirm the alien theory, i have no clue. Rip that poor mans car, I dont think insurance covers alien attacks. I'm assuming black hair mc confesses, hence the forehead kiss I'm going to ASSUME that that tank is part of the military, simply because its on the ground. Though it looks too futuristic and could possibly be the aliens.... i don't know why they brought ground troops though. Surely you would just keep air superiority. On the assumption that it is a human-made tank, I can assume that it was firing at some random airborne attacker, hence the giant light show. The guy could not have possibly caused that, because when we cut back to black hair mc girls POV, the shiny stuff is behind him. Not only that its the tail end of the effects, ie he couldn't have possibly been the originator, otherwise sparks would be diverging from him, not just traveling right. + it would make no sense for the military to fire at their own personel. Even if they did, and he does have some sort of magic that saved her, why would he go and just join the people who tried murdering him? very unlikely, further proving that must have been a friendly tank, and he didn't block the shot. Then just standard escorting civilians as he joins back with the other forces. My explaination for why he's still in his wig... is because he was literally still in public and didn't have the opportunity to take it off. I guess maybe you could argue "because the military knew when the attack would happen, he could have just left his wig at home", but surely there was some sort of margin of error. So he just wanted to enjoy his time doing what he loves before the attack. Maybe the animation cut off right before he takes his wig off and gets into his proper gear. Whether the military allows crossdressing idk. I would guess not, cause its a professional job, but idk. Him crossdressing earlier while getting information is techincally not him "on the job" so they'd probably allow that much. idk. Just a reminder this is all my opinion, I could 100% be wrong, idk. How about we put it this way: make this into a full fledged anime so we actually know what's going on :) or atleast a follow up music video called "SHADEs" lol. |

The binary, biological sex (male or female, has dick or no dick) is intentionally kept vague, and too little info given. But funny to see the trans people projecting and coping into this character. |

The invasion thing was so unnecessary. Why couldnt thins be just be about a transgirl/boy or crossdressing idol and the girl that liked them? Instead of appreciating the whole thing I need answers. |

@Luigi11Ism It's a boy that crossdresses as an idol and was drafted into special forces, and the teachers even make the draft as a reason to congratulate him in front of class. Being a spy makes no sense, it also makes no sense that he is a woman because we can literally see him workout with a compression shirt, not a chest binder or a sports bra.
@CombatMagic Yes we can literally see "him" workout and "he" is rocking yoga pants and a sports bra(not a compression shirt lmfao) and not only that "he" has a thin waist and wide hips. It was clearly a girl who was a tomboy or just crossdressed as a guy in school before getting dratted into the officers program for the military. |

Huh wdym the idol is a crossdressing boy??? I didn't get that at all from watching it the first time and was surprised when I read the synopsis on MAL :O That aside, things escalated quickly! Like where did the tanks suddenly come from? This story deserves more than just a 3 minute MV! Also why am I the only person who left a comment?? xD |
