“Fidgeting and Wandering”
In another series, Mitsumi faces a tougher time in high school due to her fish-out-of-water personality and unconscious confidence in spite of that.Between last week’s her first day to this week’s ill-timed joke while introducing herself, Mitsumi is still figuring out her way in both a much bigger community as well as how she fits into the social ecosystem of high school. Part of what makes her so refreshing though is that, so far at least, none of her missteps have been attributed to a flaw in personality, but more to her naivete, something that’s already managed to find her a few admirers.

Shima is yet another nice twist in a series that could’ve succumbed to easy tropes and character archetypes. While Shima possesses the cool boy attitude, popular already amongst his peers, Episode 2 reveals that all is not what it seems in his laid-back appearance. A few moments hint at this, most apparent when he loses an ounce of his friendliness when he tells of a member of the drama club for hounding him when it’s clear he has no interest in joining or in revealing his ties to acting.
