I don't know guys, but I think Himekawa might have fallen for Gero. That 5 star review "subtly hints" at it.

I am surprised that the sound Master is actually this much of a problem. But tbf, I did not expect that he could just make a violin out of a tree and his own hair. I might be excused for not taking into account that he is just built that differently. Though I feel with them facing each other, Gero should have enough chances to get close. Hey, maybe he even hid some actual poison around the area as some form of trap when he made sure the observation via strings was not possible anymore.

As for Shiori, I am interested to see if they are finishing her story already next week or if that is going to be a longer arc throughout the story. I at least hope we understand why her father chose her. Considering this is a toy company, I wouldn't be surprised if she is able to take away the fear by them just having fun with the toys. Which would be enough hint for me.

Also, one last thing. Gero said that he should be used to holding girls by now thanks to Kinosaki. Now I want a side story where they show Gero holding and carrying Kinosaki as some form of training arc.

I think we already saw the reason why in this episode. Shiori may be physically weak, but she managed to break through the sound master's brainwashing and showed off her strength of will. I've really been liking how much Shiori tries for herself to improve even if it's not enough and they could've had Gero save her earlier but I prefer this approach
