oh really? i read the manga and i don't find minami sus or anything but i guess i don't read her character throughly…
oh i was just looking at it more from the drama's portrayal of her so far, like she hasn't told konno yet why she is so insistent on meeting hayakawa again no matter what? it makes both him and us wonder what her intentions are 🤔but yeah since i also read the manga like you, we know that she just has a strong photography urge and a dream to photograph an androgynous person 😊
with that cliffhanger of episode 5 i'm pleasantly surprised no one is thinking ill of minami and i promise you will find her character refreshing to see 😊
synopsis for episode 6: the depth of being written
At the urging of their university classmate Minami (Kubo Nonohana), Hayakawa (Usa Takuma) and Konno (Hirano Koshu) meet again. However, the closeness between Konno and Minami brings back memories of their high school days, making Hayakawa's heart flutter once again. Meanwhile, Konno also has mixed feelings about Hayakawa, who is happily talking with Minami.
Unable to leave Konno, who has drunk more than usual, Hayakawa takes care of him at home. As Konno lies defenseless on the bed, Hayakawa tries to suppress his overflowing feelings again, but Konno suddenly pulls him towards him...
Konno's sudden behavior leaves Hayakawa puzzled. --What on earth did that mean? When he checks on Minami, he learns that Konno will unexpectedly be leaving for New York soon. Furthermore, a big opportunity comes to Hayakawa's band. Hayakawa and Konno's futures are about to move forward again.
unsure how i feel about the addition of konno leaving for new york? or i guess hayakawa mistaking konno leaving for new york? 🫤 (also unless i overlooked something i don't think this ever happened in the manga 🤔)
actually it was such a smart choice of the writers to have hanto get hypnotized to make hanto realize that "oh yabai, if something bad like this happens to me again, shouma might never know the truth, so i have to tell him today" and does exactly that 👏
in short "time is of the essence" is an effective tool in screenwriting👌
