Aqua trying his best to be an edgelord only to find out that Akane is committed 110%. It really caught him off guard. Also, I love the way they brought this scene to life. With the emphasis this show puts on eye animation, it was a nice touch to actually darken Akane's eyes when she went full Darth Akane.
I'm sure they're both good actors, even with different approaches to the craft, but Kana has the baggage of being famous as a child actor, kind of like Ron Howard, but he's doing fine.
In the last quarter of the episode I kept wishing "please don't end now, please don't end now" haha
At least we might get a full "action" packed episode next week thanks to this cliffhanger 🙏
Yeah he sees himself as not worth of being in this cast, but he seems to be working really hard to improve, so let's hope he puts up a good performance.
