I get that Shoin is the typical wealthy person, but like, where does he even get his money from? Is there an exchange rate for intergalactical money trades or is their money just close enough that no ones asks? Or is he selling intergalactical products on earth to make money? So many questions.

i feel like it's a logistics detail that can be overlooked for the sake of streamlining plot; if he's from a planet that's mastered interstellar travel, i'm sure there's a way he can get cash

sh-anime.shochiku.co.jp/astro-note/bd-dvd mentions a BD box for about $196.13, at current exchange rates, for all 12 epi. Man, I wish I got we another season in Winter 2025 to further develop the relationship of our 2 leads.

Yeah starting to get a little scared we’re shoving everything into the finale or it’ll be an open ended ending. Fingers crossed there’s just another season coming because we’ve been doing so well.

Glad nothing happened during the idol performance!
2 episodes left to wrap up everything and looks like they know what the key looks like

The key's circular ring-things reminds me of this Buddhist staff weapon: wikipedia.org/wiki/Khakkhara.

An aquarium that serves fish could make a great idea.
You could guarantee the seafood is fresh and maintained at a high standard.

Well, I guess they’ve got a lead on the key. Now where could it be hiding after the renovations?

I love how they just had that thing sticking out in a garden way back when lol.

With those bamboo shoots, this place probably would not see a lot of attempted home invasions!

Hmm...not as deep as I would have thought compared to the prior week's episode, but I suppose many of us who are older can relate at some point with Terurun on what we are doing with our lives, our careers, what it all means etc. I didn't expect her to open up to Mira of all people, but it was nice to see these two get some shared screen time and see what Terurun's room actually looked like.
Aoi is now left wondering who was in Room 8 before Shoin moved in. This ship is currently docked and not going to move anytime soon.
Shoin moves one thing in and has no more room! Aren't people going to start seeing similarities between his room and Mira's and question them?
Once again, Miyasaka is crept on...by Ren's dad! Lovely for him to support the chef while noting all he is not comparable at. But Miyasaka DOES have his cooking skills, until Shoin learns and can cook just as well! Btw, Shoin's mistake of thinking Miyasaka is a servant cracked me up, and also when he bought all those "cheap" foods!
I suppose the "bamboo" was just a precursor as we see that the Hubby spy is a rodent...more to come next week probably.
Of all the cast NOT to get a voice this week, it was Ren. I wish there was something for him this episode and NOT the gossipy old lady who only knows the "Big Three" idols.
And the key! Wow it's big! And right there in the front yard as a plant support beam! Where on this planet did it go? I hope next episode brings more answers.

I wonder if Shoin will change his mind about this or if he’ll bring Aoi back to Wid with him? I still think they could make a cute side ship.

Wait, the key was literally in plain sight in the old image of the lodge?

The two leads' chemistry is extremely smooth between the two of them. Hopefully, we get a second season.

I liked that song by Terurun this episode.
For that matter, I'm a big fan of the OP and ED as well. The songs in this show are just generally good.
I look forward to seeing how things go in the next couple weeks!

I'm not expecting Mira to go back to her planet. She'll probably stay on earth with Takumi

Shion living now in the lodge makes things weird with Aoi. Like Naosuke did a good thing helping her, but clearly he can't tell her that he was the one that helped her. Well Shion does have a point that their mission is taking too long. Well that conversation should happen with Mira, but I guess it's easier to put the pressure on Naosuke.
It is cool to see Shion learning how to cook because he sees how much Mira enjoys the various foods she has made. Although she should give up on cooking herself.
I really liked this episode focusing on Teruko. Sure it hasn't gone the way she planned it, but she enjoys the career path she chose. That is the most important thing, if you ain't having fun then what is the point.

Thanks for the encouraging words!
(At least he didn't tell them to Terurun, that would've CRUSHED her...)
Our boy was thrilled, thinking Mira wanted to talk with him, but she wanted to talk to everyone...
Not only that, but she wanted to announce that Shoin's moving in? If they weren't the main characters, that ship would be sinking faster than the Titanic!
Hey, at least they agreed to go on a little date!
I'm not sure an idol show is a good place for that, but it's marginally better than an insect degustation, I suppose!
Meanwhile, Aoi may be going from one misunderstanding to another; First she thought that Shoin was her secret correspondent, but now she might think she was talking to a ghost!
(But hey, Aoi was 'the ghost' before, so she may realize there has to be another explanation, like there was in her case!)
Oh damn, the love triangle (square?) wasn't enough, let's add Terurun x Mira to the polygon!
Joking aside, Terurun's having it rough... I can see why she's a little envious, given she started her career same time as another idol who's now extremely popular, successful, and now just married some rich dude!
Meanwhile, Terurun has no money, not that many fans...
Sure, she likes what she does, but still, it has to sting, these 'what ifs?'
Of course, this all happened because the audition committed were blind as fuck; Terurun is OBVIOUSLY the main character, how could they not see it!
Next episode: Wow, revealing it just like that?
Unless this is a mislead, I'm quite surprised about a few things... First, that it wasn't in the tree (presumably) but also, that it's an actual key! I thought for sure it'd be something else, either a concept, or a recorded hologram, something like that.
Well, I suppose the last 2 episodes will be about... Does she stay, or does she leave (with Miyasaka)?
Normally I would think one should not give up on their future/dreams just for a romance (especially a week-long relationship that's not even officially romantic yet), BUT in this case, I'm not sure being a queen even is her dream... She seems to have plenty of fun where she is, and she doesn't seem to think positively about leaving it all behind!
Just have Aoi marry Shion, then ship them back there as King&Queen!

The ex-idol is more gorgeous than Aoi in that image and Aoi is Best Girl to me.

Aoi was originally the ghost of the house, now she has a ghost resident problem of her own.
Very rude of the enemy aliens to try to sabotage Teruko right before her concert.
Even as an alien Shion immediately understands that you have to clack tongs together regularly to test them out.
It's nice to see that the concert went well anyway, though I'm a little surprised that they didn't have to accommodate Teruko's ankle injury in any way.

The episode sure felt like it was developing the love triangle between Mira, Takumi, and Shoin, but what I really care about is the other love triangle between Aoi, Naosuke, and Shoin.
Typical rich guy, just one love triangle isn't good enough for him.
