This test of courage is tailor-made for improving Gero and Shiori's relationship! She gets to hold onto his sleeve for dear life, Gero gets to reinforce that he's there to protect her and keep her safe so she can have a good time, and they even have an excuse to take a couple selfie.
Though nothing kills the romance vibe like everything transforming into a horror movie as Shiori gets chased by Lord Chladni into his temple...where she faces a vision of her father who puts throws the doubts about herself and why her father chose her as her successor at her face in horrifying fashion. All to drive her to kill herself and end her suffering.
But Shiori's not a weak Heroine! Trying may be hard, finding friends may be hard, putting herself out there might be hard...but she's going to do it anyway! Because she has the will to live! And jump out of the temple from a cliff where she'll fall to her death! Which might not have been the best idea, but it's the principle of the thing!
Shiori is not Mary Poppins, but her boobs DO fall well. And luckily Gero is there to save her when she can't save herself. Water-absorbent polymer isn't JUST for party favors! And Gero is so cozy to koala glomp onto! All that Kinosaki training was worth it!
Shiori, the cat headphones are cute, too bad they've been bugged into being another tool for Sound Master Naruko to use to try and make her kill herself. Even her swole uncle is now doubting her while making gains! But while her uncle has had terrible choices in bodyguards up to this point, Gero came highly recommended which just shows how much Shiori's uncle truly cherishes her.
Shiori needing to take a minute to reconcile with the fact that the "good guys" had been bugging and tracking her the whole time. With good intentions! Really!
Poison vs Sound! Gero vs Naruko! But what can Gero do against the vibing Sound Master and his Super effective sound threads? Especially when they coalesce into one giant Lord Chladni made of sound?
Good thing the Poison Master isn't JUST good for poison: he can make trees grow exorbitantly and ruin the sound vibes!
Ah, I see. Make all the campers scared to control them and turn them into a mob to sacrifice/kill Shiori. Get her out of there, Kinosaki!
Have to say, using a violin threaded with your own hair is...so on-brand for a Sound Assassin.
