this was a tough ep for me to watch. this side of Shirasaki is hard for me to stomach, the groveling, begging... no matter the character behaving like this, it's more then 2nd hand embarrassment - it's visceral. seeing him begging, groveling for Kuroki;s help was beyond uncomfortable. the fact that in-spite of how Kuroki feels about Shirasaki, he in the end folded & gave into Shirasaki's begging says a lot about him. still didn't make that whole drawn out scene, any more plateable & for sure will never rewatch that. *************************************************************************************************************************also Shirasaki has a tendency to very be self-centered, in this ep he finally understood how important the role he was cast for was to Asami & how he must have felt to have give up on it. but no matter what, Shirasaki never thinks to ask Asami about his day, how he is feeling - heck Asami's so good at hiding his true feelings - u have to watch him like hawk to notice something is off & this time when he finally tried to reach out.... Shirasaki was off busy with his own issues. which r always more pressing then Asami or their relationship. cause he knows Asami will always indulge & prioritize him. ************************************i feel sad for Asami who was the adult as a child & now as an adult he is in a relationship with a needy child that can't seem to offer a bit of support.. heck he doubts Asami needs anything of the sort & takes him for granted. living like this can be exhausting & soul crushing. so before this ends i really hope Shirasaki matures enough to understand that he needs to support & be someone Asami can lean on & not always be the one taking & getting support. i hope -
