EP.9 focuses on family and expectations.
Toma’s father suddenly appears and begins pushing his own ideas about Toma’s future, which creates an uncomfortable situation for both Toma and Natsume.
The father’s comments about Toma’s career and ambitions feel especially harsh, particularly because they are said right in front of Natsume.
Until now, Natsume has quietly supported Toma’s growth, so seeing him finally lose his temper was one of the highlights of the episode.
It also reveals an interesting side of Toma’s past.
Before meeting Natsume, Toma seemed to lack a clear goal despite his talent and good looks.
But Natsume’s presence gave him direction, and that is why Natsume reacts so strongly when someone dismisses Toma’s efforts.
Family relationships are complicated, and this episode touches on that theme in a surprisingly thoughtful way.
At the same time, the strong mutual support between Natsume and Toma remains the emotional core of the story.
With the finale approaching next week, this episode leaves a warm and reassuring feeling about their relationship.
