  I never would’ve thought that reaction “Wow just like magic” can be used in such a context…

  While this attitude Shizuka had may throw some people off, I think this could be some form of her dissociating after witnessing a traumatic event

  I guess all the happy shots from the trailer were just in Takopi’s mind.

  I think we also may be seeing some events through Takopi’s eyes as an unreliable narrator, like those sparkle effects around Shizuka’s face. I guess we’ll find out in the next episode whether this was what I think it was or the show is starting to lose its footing by trying to be too edgy and doing things just for the shock value

    Shizuka is deeply hurt and unhappy person. Considering that any reaction is not abnormal in that case. After years of pain anything goes, just to end the suffering. In that case it looks like she thought about killing either the source of the pain or herself.
    Honestly watching this show makes me feel so frustrated. I feel like there’s so much you could do to end (relatively peacefully) this suffering but nobody’s taking an action. I understand this happens in many cases but still… We’re on the bad route and I feel like suicide wasn’t the worst of them…
