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.

That review was written by the fanclub guys. Kitami. He was the same one Kinosaki thanked for the GPS tracker she he placed on Shiori (there was that little cut out thanking Kitami).

But otherwise... yeah... Kinosaki already said it: Himekawa was clearly DTF for Gero. 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.

Oh, I like this! Her father chose Shiori because she genuinely likes making people happy. Such as when she used her family's own products in her magical girl act.

She may not be a ruthless businesswoman, but she has the right soul for the family business. Unlike the sister that looks like she cares only for profit, and the brother... is a meat head? But Shiori just wants to bring joy into the world.

And that's more important than $$$$

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.

All while Kinosaki torments Gero by relentlessly flirting with him the entire time. For his training. Yes. Training. It's totally "exposure therapy." And nothing else. He's not having fun teasing Gero... OK, maybe a little a great deal. But Kinosaki totally isn't falling in love with Gero and taking advantage of "training" to enjoy getting closer to him.

Nope.

Not at all!

:p

Well, I guess Kitami is falling in love with Gero as well then. I did notice that he was the one with noise canceling headphones though. But on a serious note, I like that the characters are still relevant. I wonder if the "supporters" will then try to make Gero fall for their girl as well. Would be funny if they all meet for a strategy discussion.
