    What's going on?

    I wasn't bored during this episode, but there was ZERO plot progression. Instead of Aqua's mission, it was a full-on side story about script writing. WTF. I at least expected the script writer to commit suicide or something which would have upped the drama, but no, nothing.

    Also Abiko is a cunt and I hope she gets her comeuppance.

    "She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court

    I'm pretty sure that the series itself is more interested in showing the entertainment industry than in either the reincarnation or the murder. movies, idols, reality show, tv production and now theater.

    sig made by Itachi-y2k5, thanks, dude!
    Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.

    You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.

    That's bad then, because the mystery is the exciting premise of this show.

    Aqua only joined this stage production to get info from the person who might know something about Ai's dalliances. So, what do you expect to happen before he has any chance to get that info? He needs to be patient and do what has to be done to get that info. Presently, it's his only lead.

    Anyway, this is a showbiz series. Aqua is the only one trying to do something else, of all the cast. Even Ruby has no such interests. She's trying to make it big in the idol business, following Ai's footsteps. So, obviously this isn't going to be all about solving a crime, like an episode of Derrick or Der Alte. Rather, the author has decided to make minimal progress with the mystery, dosing it sparingly over the series, with the focus being on the entertainment industry. It's kind of like a thing that's supposed to make this series a little bit different compared to most showbiz titles, but in the end this still is a showbiz title.
