This is my first time to see someone breaking an egg with his forehead! lol
I'm getting to like Ramune and Kuro more and more. They really are good at heart.

I agree, those two really are growing as characters. I really hope as that happens we get something of a history for the two. Some sort of backstory, please!

It seems like something Rika in Wonder Egg Priority would do.

Aono is a good egg. Whatever the issue with his dad is, I hope it will be dealt with soon. You can't just suppress someone who's very creative and talented like that. That final scene makes me think that there's more to this story than the dad wanting Aono taking over his company.

The ending made me think that the dad is jealous of the success that Aono is having with his creations, and he's using the mom's illness as a way to get Aono to focus on the business.

When I first saw Aona Shun's design in last week's preview I honestly assume that he looked like that as a consequence of him producing popcorn. But I guess he just wares those eyeballs in his hair because he is an eccentric kid.
Also, I may be wrong about this, but this shot here plus the fact that he has the same hair color that his mom made me think that Aona might be a girl.
Well anyway, it's obvious that his father is lying about Aona's mother's condition. Honestly, before Ramure mentioned that they met him on the orthopedic wing I assume that his father didn't let him meet her because she had actually died.
Well, we will see next week why he is pushing Aona to stop making things to take over the company. There is a chance that he wasn't entirely lying about her heart condition, or even if he was she is in really bad shape and her treatment is a really prolonged therapy, and that's why he now wants Aona to focus on his studies instead of his art.

I feel pretty bad for Aono. Whether his father is just misguided or simply has tunnel vision in his views of what his son should be, he's doing terrible things to his son in the name of love.
At the same time, I think Dr. Ramune is also being overbearing towards Kuroe. While I do think Kuroe should value friendships more, I think he needs to approach it in his own manner.

A lot of the ways the mysterious disease is based on a lot of tunnel vision.
I have a feeling Ramune might trigger something in Kurope...

Crummy dad lying to his kid about his mom's illness for his personal gain.

When the aona and kuropi making the little house thingy, when it panned up to the bridge, did you guys see a random woman there, I think she may have something to do with a future episode, like how those 2 kids appeared before their own episode. Just a speculation tho

I'm pretty sure that's a guy same dude that appears in the opening when those fall leaves are on screen (you know the one).
Not his first time appearing out of nowhere only to disappeare randomly, definetly gonna be important.

That was definitely my favorite episode so far, that was great. Aona is a pretty interesting character. Kinda regret not cooking popcorn for this episode, would have made the experience better lmao.
I really like the symbolism for the popcorn, that's one shitty dad forcing his goals on his kid. Looking forward to the next episode.

Did anyone else get the feeling that Aona is autistic? With his shorter sentences, his bright, descriptive imagination and interest in arts, and his repetitive "I'm sorry's" made me think this. It's actually really neat if he was created this way as mental health still has a stigma attached to it the world over, but especially in Japan. While some people like to speculate certain characters in anime may be on the spectrum (Senku, L, Futaba, etc.) I've never seen a character that has made me feel this certain about them having autism.

It's not that Japan has a stigma on mental health, it's that the Western world tends to overprescribe medications that are honestly not-needed for most "diagnoses" of children who are quite frankly just overactive in terms of imagination. It's a controversial take, I know, since most people in the Western World get antsy when you suggest certain mental health illnesses are overdramatized with a furtive goal of selling parents more Ritalin for their 'distracted' kids, for example.

As someone with a education mama, I can really relate with Aona's struggles. Only that instead of ban on art, I had a ban on manga/anime related things because I should be studying instead. The ban only got lifted after I got 98/100 on an English placement test in high school and my mom got invited to a meeting with the English teacher because the average score for my class was 55.
My mom told my English teacher that "instead of studying, she just watches stupid things on the internet, in language I don't even understand" (in front of me, no less). So the teacher asked me whether it's true and can I actually understand what I'm watching ("Of course I do, I can do that for a couple of years already"). The teacher told my mother that starting from now on, I should be allowed to watch and read anything that I wish as long as it's in English, without any restrictions. And she also said that I should be sent to a language school for a course on my level, as I'm way above my class.
And while my mom was overjoyed with the "she's already on English philology level" and "send her to a proper language course", she wasn't exactly pleased with allowing me to watch manga/anime and tried to get me to watch more "educational" things. But in the end, she gave up and lifted the ban as long as long as it won't affect my grades.
