Shimokita Sundays Episode 7

i feel so many emotions right now but i think i can confidently say i love this drama えじゃな

i planned to binge through Ⅵ ，Ⅶ & Ⅷ but that was the most sobering episode i have ever seen. it’s thirty minutes of an expected & dreaded wind±down with the troupe each cracking down. the preview had me excited to see yuika & yagami having this heart two heart but i don’t think i can ever fully articulate what it felt like watching his true dejection every new broil festering up in the troupe & to finally revert back into a childhood forced to live with vacant parents ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆　　 ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ i was focusing so hard on how akiko was slowly warping that yagami slipped my mind. I’ve always liked his character but he’s always been an existence supporting others. & when those others are infighting & resenting & falling apart where does that leave him ？& again the writers don’t fail him. what jo said wasn’t wrong. both of them can be right at the same time & the show understands this well like they’ve shown time & time before ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆　　 ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ & now I’m sitting here with genuine fear to start the next epoisode. i made a pledge to get through this in seven days so i will finish this show tomorrow. but every bone in my body is so scared that the worst thoughts that those characters are feeling as they search through an entire city might be true. I’ve talked about this before how i feel that the best way to make a comedy is to understand why a laugh can be so healing & wanted. to understand the darkesrt worst moments that we can’t look on in the eye. i don’t even know how to finish that sentence.
