Review:
The concert ends with a bang, surprisingly for Yuzu and not Nino this
time. Yuzu has reached a point where he must confront his mother in
order to move forward, and he's finally ready to do that.
In the meantime, Nino has finally felt the rush of performing for an
audience. And now Momo is realizing that, while he was ahead of her
before, she's now trying more things than he is.
It feels like things are finally starting to even-up between the
characters and the bands, and thus each character gets to deal with
that now.
For a surprise plot, we got to see a romance for their manager, Yana.
I hadn't seen that coming, as we haven't gotten much attention from
them (or at least I hadn't paid them any real attention), but it was a cute little scene. It was a little scene-stealer,
honestly.
I really like all of the characters at this point. I want Nino and
Yuzu to reach their potential and do the things they want to do; and
I just want Momo to do good and be happy with it. Plus there's all
the side characters.
I'm excited to see how this series goes from here.
