I will always be bitter about them marketing this as a romance in the beginning. "A love story between two men."
Yes, there is love in friendship. But the term "love story" is still reserved for romance in my mind.
I will still watch this, I have been waiting for so long, I am excited about the story and the cast and I'm sure I will enjoy it. But the disappointment is there.
It's so interesting to me why Chiaki would fall for the "alter ego" over AE, his idol. But it actually makes a lot of sense.
AE seems cool but is actually very out of place in his own skin and his own world. Ironically, as his alter ego, he is allowed to show more of his true nature... His clumsiness... His real passion (fashion, not modeling)... which also allows Chiaki to be more comfortable in his presence. So I guess that's why Chiaki's connection with Enaga seems more real even if Enaga is literally weaing a mask (well, wig, but still).
Love how the poster fits this, too: Chiaki is only reaching for Enaga.
What was that?! That last line of episode 3?! That was so out of the blue. I need ep 4 now!
I was surprised he said it out loud, but I wasn't surprised he felt it. He had been gushing like someone in love the entire episode and tbh, I felt like it was a bit of a "love at first sight" situation for him.

"It's no wonder I made a move on him when I was drunk. In fact, even if I wasn't..." 😍😍😍
