This is honestly one of my favorite shows so it saddens me that it's so underrated. I feel like the plot description is a big reason why more people haven't seen it, which is annoying because it's much more than that, and the bodyswap is even really well done, with the way they also explored gender and sexuality.

When did the show get another episode? Wasn't it only supposed to be 10 eps long?

Yes, thank you 👍

I agree about Dan and Asuka, I really hope they get together at the end of the show.

Sorry for confusing you, by "I don't want to get too spoiled" I just meant I don't want too many details, but I still want to know why Dan and Asuka didn't get together in the new ep.

I don't want too many details since I don't want to get too spoiled before watching it, but now I'm curious: why didn't Dan and Asuka get together if he confessed? Because he still wants to focus on the group or she didn't want to "distract" him from 8LOOM or something else? I hope she didn't lie and say she doesn't have feelings for him.

I've been expecting a sad ending since I read the premise of the show, so I knew what I signed myself up for when I started watching it, but I've never wished so badly for a miraculous happy ending.

Since ep 5 was focused on Takara (and Ryusei), ep 6 seems to have a Eiji and Yukiya focus (based on the preview), and I feel like Naru has started playing a significant role, so I hope we also get to see more of Takumi before the show ends! He seems so sweet and cute.

In my opinion, yes! I ship them a lot, and I really love their scenes together. They might not be everyone's preference though since she's 7-10 years older than him and was briefly his high school teacher 4,5 years prior. Their relationship is not the main focus, but it is pretty central to the story, even though it does focus more on 8LOOM's journey and I would say the "found family" with all the characters. Also they probably won't get together until like the last episode.

I've only watched 2 episodes so far but I love it so much, I don't think I've ever been this quickly invested in a show and the characters/relationships. I can't believe that when I've caught up I have to start waiting for new episodes...

Perth and Chimon said it was airing in the beginning of the year at least

Is it really confirmed, that the episodes are gonna be 40 minutes long?

Does anyone know who's writing this show?

No I’ve only looked at what he’s tweeted and posted on his facebook, but it’s actually not much.

It’s not a happy ending, lets put it like that.

No one is forcing you or anyone else to "endure" this show if you don't like it, people do in fact have free will to stop watching whenever they want.

Knowing now how deep In's guilt and shame runs a kiss between them wouldn't have been possible (well maybe in ep 6 when In was so out of it from re-living his trauma), but speaking purely from a chemistry/sexual tension standpoint then it was absolutely a shame that there wasn't any kiss because Pond and Nike have really nice chemistry.

"then that means that Siam's death guilt had been weighing heavily on his neck and therefore to free himself a little bit from the guilt he had to succumb to crazy mum's pleas." Interesting, I hadn't thought of it like that, but I do think that's highly possible. Then I only hope that it's not just replaced by guilt for hurting Wang.

About your sentence "I have no idea why Wang doesn't give In a chance months/years later" - We don't know if he does? Because we have no idea how much time has passed when we hear Wang's narration at the end, that's up to interpretation. I for example don't think more than 1 year has passed, so I think that they do meet again one day. I personally think that the "finality" of Wang's decision/narration is more for his own sake, so it's easier to heal/move on from this. I feel like it would be harder for him if he kept thinking "maybe one day he'll be ready and we'll meet again". But again, these are just my thoughts.
