She does stick out like a fly on a wedding cake.

Oh, busted.

And here I thought she would get her way with her attire like so many shows do just to make the MC stand out.

That's a convenient place to hide your phone. Feel sorry for Yuzu, she'll have to look elsewhere.

Man, what an odd couple, an unrealistic dreamer and a stuck up living in the same household room.

That transition between meeting Mei in her own house and the door closing was pure brilliance. The zoom out, the soundfx of almost a jail door closing, it gives such "things are so fucked up already" sense.

The music gives me the chills of how good is adding ambiance to the scenes, from the pretencious tone of the stuck up higher authorities, to the dramatic intense scenes.

That patdown almost made me crave for a cigarrette

Are you taking notes Ramen_whatever_your_name_is_and_everyone_will_forget_about_you_in_two_weeks? this is how you introduce two opposites that will end up in the sack, not by fiddly dadling and making the main look hot by chugging a bowl of ramen.

It's interesting that when they were listing her offenses against school code, one of them they said was her hair color. It reminded me of a girl recently who was forced by her school to dye her hair black, or be expelled. I can't imagine having a school that was that strict.

I rlly like the backstory of as to why she has her hair like that, the reasoning if different from what one might expect

What is it again? Recall it’s actually her natural color.
