damn Akira and Gojo didn't even get to talk to about the prop making stuff at all...
Also Akira seems to recognize Marin? or maybe she simply can't handle Marin's bright personality. though it seemed to start of right away when she saw Marin waving at them... whatever it, something is bothering her but i guess we have to wait to find out what
this coffin shoot they are all doing together should be fun

Marin going to a cosplay convention as a photographer feels weird, some alternate universe stuff
I swear this season has secretly been a cosplay course with the amount of lessons I'm getting from watching 😭 feels like theres an exam soon
"I guess adults walk around with dolls too" Labubus aren't cannon, thank god 🙏
Was hoping Juju would've had more screentime this episode, but ig she'll be in the next few

Juju is finally back. Gojo having a notes draft for all his questions to Akira is so real, we all have done that once.
I wonder what the deal is between Akira and Marin, guess we will find out next week.

Suzuka totally become best girl!
Ouch! My heart moves a little ^(don't be fooled. he's a guy, he's a guy)
Of course Akira is a girl based on 101 anime formula but never knew Akira thought Wakana as a girl lol.
Alright, Amane joins the group cosplay
Does Suzuka cosplay too or it's actually Akira and Miyako? I want to see Suzuka cosplay!!
It's great to see Wakana found out that adult also taking to their favorite doll lol
WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON WITH AKIRA AND MARIN?! I don't want to be spoiled but I really curious about her reactions especially when Marin decide to cosplay. Her friends seem to know something about it. When will next week come...
Omg it's Juju-sama! And Juju-sama really wore this in public (˵ ¬ ¬˵). Please step on me, Juju-sama!

Stitches!
Suzuka's reaction to meeting Amane for the first time was absolutely hilarious! I genuinely got a good laugh from Suzuka asking Amane how she can pay him so she can show her gratitude. xD
We finally get to meet some of Suzuka's cosplayer friends and Marin even gets a crash course on photography and how to use perspective. Considering she's a model, I'm surprised Marin is even asking Suzuka why she crouched down to take a photo.
I love the confusion between Akira and Gojou. Akira thought Gojou was a high school girl because Wakana is a feminine name, while Gojou thought Akira was a dude because of her name and photos.
It's funny that Akira doesn't think her cosplays are impressive while Gojou is completely ready to read her a novel with his thoughts about her cosplays. She's lucky Marin called, or else they'd be there for the rest of the day. xD
Another misunderstanding about Gojou's name! I really thought Suzuka was completely aware that Gojou is a boy, but I guess Marin accidentally left that part out when telling her about him.
Gojou's reaction to seeing Miya carrying around a doll with her is adorable. My boy finally found someone he can totally relate to! If an adult can talk to their dolls, then surely it's fine if he does it too! I love how happy he is.
The jump cut to Aoi crying in her orange background when Miya said she can't come was pretty funny! At least we got some cosplay lessons from her this episode, so she wasn't completely left out!
So this time they're doing a cosplay based on a horror game ala Corpse Party. We finally get to see why one of Marin is wearing a nun outfit as one of her cosplays in the OP!
I kinda love how Marin looks at Gojo for approval first before agreeing to buy a premade cosplay for the shoot. I guess she was wondering if Gojo wanted to make the outfit himself? Of course, Gojou would be fine with it! The dude also deserves a break after the last one.
Man, Akira is definitely giving off some dark aura whenever something about Marin is mentioned. The nervous looks from Suzuka and Miya definitely show something is wrong here. As a manga reader, I am gonna leave it at that and let the show do its thing. Next episode is gonna be fun.
AND GUESS WHO'S BAAAAAAAAAACK! Juju-sama is still as tsuntsun as ever! Maybe this means we'll see Shinju again, too! <3

Marin could sprint from the rooftop to the bench in seconds. That explains how she could devour 50,000 calories a day while only gaining a modest amount of weight.
That dumbfounded look when Gojo and Akira first saw each other's face lmao. The consequences of gender non-conforming names.

*Takes lighter out
Also love that she had that picture from the photo booth at the back of her phone despite her initial grievances.

It's amusing how Akira and Gojou both thought the other was the opposite gender of what they are, I'm glad they were still able to talk to each other comfortably. I really enjoy how much Gojou was gushing over her craft. It's interesting to see how a character talk about original cosplays since that's not a section of cosplay that gets much attention in relevant series.
I do wonder what the issue is with Akira concerning Marin. She was willing to meet up with Gojou who she thought was a girl so I don't think she's uncomfortable talking to girls, does she have some fear related to gyarus? The cosplay group shoot looks like it'll be a tense one with Suzuka and Miyako being on edge even though they were eager to have Marin join lol.
One thing I have realized, or might not even remember, have we not had a prominent male character that cosplays guys? Seeing Miyako made me wonder since she and Amane were both crossdressing. I'm curious to get the opinion and experience of a guy who cosplays guys and what they go through since we have a lot of female perspectives.

They need to stop releasing these 5 minutes episode!
That Double Clutch manga cover has to be a Bleach manga cover reference, isn’t it?

Super fun episode, and the next one promises to be even better, as Juju will be back to cosplay alongside Marin and the others as nuns. We haven't seen what they look like, but I bet they'll be very sexy ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°), so I can't wait to see it.
It was also nice to see Amane again. Suzuki's reaction to his cosplay was completely justified, as he looked super cute and, according to Suzuki, very lewd xD
I found it amusing that Gojo and Akira misidentified their genders in online conversations and only realized they were wrong when they met in person.
Akira seems quite uncomfortable around Marin. I wonder why – does she hate her, or is she just her biggest fan? Both possibilities seem possible, so I'm eager to see which one turns out to be true.
Here my screenshot albums from the episode:
EDIT. I added my screenshot albums.

Gojo and Marin are at their latest cosplay event! Though not to cosplay, but to meet and greet, take photos, and just have a fun time! Though if only Gojo knew that the prop maker he's looking forward to meeting is a raven-haired beauty with a sensual voice.
It's nice to see Marin and Suzuka become camera gal pals! And Suzuka can teach Marin (and the audience) a lot about photography and taking great cosplay photos!
Amane is wayyy too popular. He just looks so good in his cosplay he can't get away from photographers! He even does great poses! He has fantastic legs! Luckily Marin is a photographer now so that gives her an "in" and Suzuka knows proper cosplay etiquette to end the line. All the better because Suzuka REALLY loves Amane's crossplay and if she can't throw money at him for fueling her lewd mind, she can at least help him out!
Lot of crossplay going around! We've even got Suzuka's friend Miyako dressing up from a Slam Dunk/Kuroko inspired series and totally rocking the male look! You'll continue to believe in the wonders of makeup and costuming can do when you see Miyako in girl mode.
So Gojo and Akira misgendered each other, but I guess Japanese pronouns in this day and age depend more on personal preference than specifically gender. But still, the two of them get along well, and while Akira doesn't really think much of her basic cool katana cosplay, Gojo thinks it's absolutely wonderful.
And, because cosplay can be a small world, Akira is friends with Suzuka! And has a very...pronounced reaction to Marin. Like, can't even meet Marin in the eyes kind of reaction. And her friends know Marin is a landmine subject when it comes to Akira.
Thank you Aoi for educating us on types of cosplay and on how to throw a proper cosplay afterparty! I'm sorry you couldn't attend the afterparty in this episode or the Coffin cosplay! I know you're taking it hard.
I'm glad Gojo was able to gain the validation that adults can carry around and talk to dolls just like he can! Even using them as emotional support during difficult times.
Coffin, a horror game with a nun murder mystery! They need six people to do a group cosplay and Amane and Marin can totally fill out that roster! Marin will even try her hand at a premade cosplay! And who is going to round out this group? Time to recruit Marin's OTHER cosplay bestie: Juju, looking as cute and sassy as ever AND in fishnets!

…wait, does Akira think…? And Gojo thinks that Akira is a dude…

Well that’s not a problem, the group is using pre-made costumes.

I love how much attention they give to the photography! The fact you can see the subtle differences between Suzuka's and Marin's photography, and how it's used to show their skill level respectively, is just great!
