JUST FINISHED IT. wahhh… it was so cute, the way that ichika saki shiho and kohane all tried their best to reassure minoharu that they’ll stay friends despite not being in the same class. another aspect of it is i really really felt minori’s growth from the start of the story in this event, i loved seeing minori genuinely full heartedly seriously think about her future as an idol and her priorities, and how they show her family’s involvement in her dream. “one year wasn’t that long but i enjoyed my normal high school life” BROKE ME !!!! it was so precious to see this side of minori’s life, this is also one of the first times we’ve seen her be uncertain since all the other times she’s always been the force to propel the other members forward. i’m so excited for what’s to come with mmj in the future, they already foreshadow it with “i’m sure there will be troubles in the future, but i hope you always remember the the feeling of wanting to deliver hope you have” i’m so GAHHHH. minori will actually see the idol industry in full now, i hope nothing dulls her shine
