this has been quite a ride. it's interesting, started off thinking we were going into a slightly extreme (and well done) enemies-with benefits to lovers story, which, yeah, i'm a total sucker for, but it's ended up going in a much darker but probably more interesting direction.
the one i feel worst for right now is hashimoto. kuroda's ambition might be thwarted but she's honestly well rid of them. hashimoto got a glimpse of the depths of shirakawa's psychopathy and is likely tied to her for the moment.
