Anyone else cringe during any of the scenes where they're playing music? Particularly when they show God on the drums because he is clearly not playing what you can hear. Not to mention the whole contest performance in episode 8, that was just straight up embarrassing. There are so many ways the rest of the band could've handled the "technical difficulty" but instead they point it out and say it was on purpose? Just say you're having a technical difficulty, it happens sometimes. Then they played the song all the way from the beginning again, from the soft piano part... At least just start it from a more upbeat part of the song? It's so obvious they're not actually a band and it hurts watching, I'm sorry.
To me, Taishin was obviously neurodivergent, not just "a country bumpkin" or stupidly naive. Taishin exhibited…
Yes! So much yes! As an autistic person, I could recognize myself a lot in Taishin, and some of the things he said to Takara are things I constantly say to others. Genuinely, I said "why is he me?" several times while watching.
Also, I know it's not that deep, but I've seen people allude to how Taishin made them want to k1ll themselves, and when you can really relate to a character, that does kind of hurt. Is Taishin a more exaggerated character of what most neurodivergent people really are? Yes, but I to me, he was still fairly believable and I feel like the actor did a great job portraying him.
