Wait—did MyGO!!!!! really just fall apart like that?
As this episode ended, many viewers hadn't expected the story to develop in such a way.
Could it be that MyGO!!!!! was about to repeat the same mistakes as CRYCHIC?
But after thinking it over, they felt that probably wouldn't be the case.
After all, this is an anime—the main cast is bound to go through hardships and setbacks.
And besides, this was only the plot within the anime.
The MyGO!!!!! in reality… should be fine, right?
Still, even though her past made her somewhat understandable, Nagasaki Soyo's performance in this episode was practically that of a villain!
Some Soyo fans even said that while they originally liked her, now they liked her even more!
This bad woman is just irresistibly charming!
Of course, they would never admit that they were captivated by those stunning close-up shots of her.
That said, more viewers still felt that what Soyo did in this episode was indeed a bit too much.
Meanwhile, the band girls at Kamijou Mutsuki's home, after the small interlude just now, had fully focused their attention back on the screen in front of them.
Even though it was just an anime's plot, they were still very curious about how MyGO!!!!! would develop.
Was this really the end?
Or was there still a turning point?
No—normally speaking, it had to be the latter, right?
[Soon, Episode 10 of MyGO!!!!! began playing.
"What happened after that? I mean the band."
Right from the start—something rare—the anime showed a conversation between Shiina Taki and Yahata Umiri.
"It's over."
Facing Umiri's question, Taki's mood was extremely low.
Clearly, at this moment, she saw MyGO!!!!! as just another CRYCHIC.
Then, the scene quickly shifted from Hanasakigawa Girls' School to Tsukinomori Girls' Academy.
"…Soyo must be feeling pretty relaxed, right?"
"Not really."
Nagasaki Soyo chatted with the friends beside her with a fake smile, completely ignoring Wakaba Mutsumi standing nearby—let alone taking the initiative to speak to her.]
Soyo, are you cold-shouldering Mutsumi again?
Facing the somewhat subtle gazes of the girls around her, Soyo was almost used to it by now.
In these past two episodes, she could be said to have done every bad thing possible—aside from the "cat," every girl in MyGO!!!!! had been hurt by her. She was practically a full-on villain.
Right now, Soyo was genuinely a little afraid that these MyGO!!!!! girls might just treat her like a boss to be defeated.
Could it be that her role in this anime wasn't part of the main cast, but actually the antagonist?
She couldn't help but start doubting that herself.
["I failed again,"
After the culprit briefly appeared, the scene finally shifted to Takamatsu Tomori.
"Everything."
"Everything."
"I hate sadness."
"I hate feeling upset."
As Tomori's inner monologue continued, the scene showed Chihaya Anon.
She stood there, listening to the "traffic light trio" chatting.
"Good morning, Tomori!"
Seeing Tomori arrive, the three of them greeted this class favorite.
Instead, Anon—who usually had the best relationship with Tomori—only glanced at her, then took the initiative to start chatting with the trio, as if deliberately ignoring Tomori.
The three girls in the anime exchanged looks, astonished.
These two can actually have a falling-out?
Did the ship they supported just sink?]
After Soyo, now Anon is doing this too?
However, even Shiina Taki didn't have any intention of blaming her.
After all, anyone who went through what she experienced would probably be upset.
Instead, Anon herself felt a bit guilty and was there comforting Tomori.
["I don't know how to express it,"
Along with Tomori's monologue, the story seemed to plunge straight downward.
"But I still want to say it properly."
"I hope you'll listen carefully."
It was as if Tomori had returned to how she was at the very beginning—alone once again, like history repeating itself.]
Uwaah… Tomori…
Watching this part, the band girls in the living room—as well as the other viewers in front of their screens—felt their hearts ache.
Even though they knew, following anime conventions, it was unlikely for MyGO!!!!! to end here, they still couldn't help but feel worried.
Where's that guy Kamijou… right, he's not in the anime…
As she watched the events unfold, Chihaya Anon subconsciously thought of Kamijou Mutsuki, but quickly snapped back to reality.
Wait, since when had she started relying on him so much?
Was this… their original fate, if no one had interfered?
Just as the girls were lost in their thoughts, the anime finally reached a turning point.
[When she was feeling down, Takamatsu Tomori went to the planetarium as usual.
However, this time, Misumi Uika happened to be sitting beside her—and couldn't get her seat to open.
Then, with Tomori's help…
"Ah—"
Caught off guard, Uika fell backward, ending up lying face-to-face with Tomori.
The distance between them was only two or three centimeters.]
Wait, what kind of development is this?
Seeing this scene, Shiina Taki instantly frowned.
Kamijou Mutsuki and Anon were one thing—but what's with this blonde now?
"Uika…"
Sumita Mana shot her partner a resentful look.
First it was that Sakiko, and now Tomori—just how many "good little sisters" do you have behind my back?
"It was just an accident!"
As for Uika herself, she blushed and waved her hands repeatedly.
It didn't seem like much from her own perspective in the anime, but from a third-person view, the scene really was easy to misunderstand.
"Waaah… but I feel like Uika hasn't cared about me as much lately."
"I told you, Mana—we'll always be the best partners, right?"
But only partners.
Sneaking a glance at Sakiko Togawa—who was off to the side in her maid outfit—for some reason, Uika felt a bit guilty.
Recently, because of Sakiko, she really hadn't been as attentive to Mana.
After all, Sakiko was her "white moonlight."
It was hard for her to say that she cared more about Mana as a partner.
And since this scene in the anime was indeed just a somewhat dramatic accident, Mana didn't take it too seriously.
Still, one thing puzzled her.
Uika seemed to go to the planetarium quite often, right?
Could she really not handle a seat mechanism?
["Thank you for helping me."
After Misumi Uika thanked her, the two girls began enjoying the simulated starry sky in the planetarium.
However, after it ended, Uika actually took the initiative to talk to Takamatsu Tomori, even offering her encouragement.]
Because of this, Chihaya Anon and the others naturally expressed their thanks to Uika.
But they all felt that this part of the scene was somehow a bit unnatural.
[After receiving Uika's encouragement, Tomori seemed to have figured something out. She began writing lyrics, and even took the initiative to approach Anon.
"Do a live with me."
"What about Soyo?"
As expected, Anon refused.]
Watching this scene, the real-life Anon couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.
She could understand her anime self—she might feel sorry for Tomori, but after going through something like that, it really wasn't easy to reconcile so quickly.
