The one-word title for the episode is genius as usual. So many layers / levels of metaphors (? if that is the right term): alluded to in the definition of “curse”, Asa’s and Emiri’s friendship, society’s treatment of women / sexism, maybe more that I missed.

Also Kasamachi’s relationship with his toxic father, treatment of people who somehow stand out from the crowd for one reason or another. But not only the ones that could fit under the term curse, positive ones too, like Makio’s and Asa’s mother-daughter sort of relationship in the long term. It’s impressive how this show manages to juggle so many complex issues in such a short timespan and make it feel natural and interesting. Truly great episode again.
