Last week, Tsuge and Minato grew closer when Tsuge used his powers to help Minato reconcile with Rokkaku by sharing his experience of growing apart from Adachi when he was a struggling writer. Kurosawa began using Adachi’s powers to flirt with him at work. Adachi was offered a position at a faraway branch, but decided to not tell Kurosawa about it because he didn’t want to be apart. Kurosawa was frustrated when he learned that Adachi didn’t involve him in this decision. We left them parting on bad terms because Adachi was unable to express himself.
I don’t know how I would cope with my crush reading the romance novel I wrote about them.
Thank you, Tsuge, for being direct with Adachi. Sometimes you need your bestie to tell you when you’re being an asshole. They’re also on your side, so they’re going to help you get your head out of your ass.
OOF! That judge just crushed Minato.
Okay, I really love that we’re getting multiple versions of Tsuge encouraging Minato not to give up. I love the scooter running out of gas as a metaphor.
Get you a man willing to commit blasphemy and drive across the city for you.
Getting emotional about Minato’s friends being here to support him because Tsuge encouraged Minato to open back up to them.
Now, Tsuge, why did you say you had ulterior motives? That’s so ridiculous. Just tell this man you like him.
My boy lost!
Oh, Tsuge, you are killing me, my dude. You’ve heard Minato’s thoughts. He doesn’t dislike you!
Well well well. My boy got picked up by SHOWTA!
Adachi is just going to Nagasaki for 10 days! All this drama for 10 days? I’m going to shake him!!
We’re really in it now, girls! Both of our telepaths are in their own heads too much. I like the focus on the sides this week instead of spending an entire episode on our leads moping about each other.
Ortho's voice actor Aoi Shouta's industry career began when he applied for a karaoke contest at age 17 that was cancelled due to inclement weather. Event organizers selected him from his audition tape to participate in a musical festival, where he won the grand prize.
After singing a cover of Koda Kumi’s “1000 no Kotoba” (featured in Final Fantasy X-2) at a national competition, he was immediately picked up by an agency.
His major debut single Negai Boshi was released on July 26th, 2006 under the name SHOWTA.

In a “Style of the PRINCE” interview Aoi explains that he had always been interested in a career in anime and video games but his agency recommended against it, citing his lack of experience.
Three years into his singing career he quit his agency to pursue a career in the anime/game industry.
His video game debut was in 2011’s “Black Robinia”, followed shortly by his anime debut eight months later in “You and I”.
He has since voiced characters as Magic-kyun! Renaissance, Dynamic Chord, 2.43: Seiin High School Boys Volleyball Team (all three with Leona's Umehara) and Uta no Prince with Lilia’s Midorikawa Hikaru. (thank you @peppermint-angel for the additional information!)
He has had over 20 lead roles in anime, nearly 50 lead roles in video games and appeared in over 30 stage musicals. As of last month he is a freelance voice actor and singer.
In an interview with CONTINUE magazine Aoi says that he spent the years from his third year in elementary school to his first year of middle school as a hikkikomori, never attending classes.
As a child he underwent intensive training to become a professional tennis player.
While identifying as male Aoi has expressed that he doesn’t like being restricted by expectations of what he should and shouldn’t do as a man and often styles himself androgynously.
He was cast in the role of Mermaid Princess “Marina” in 2016’s stage musical “The Smile Mermaid”.
I LOVE THIS SONG!! I first listened this song years ago but at that time I didn't know the singer was Shota Aoi! omg omg omg! No wonder why I love his voice on all that otoge! TT_TT
