From the few glimpses we got, seems like the new girl might be from a pretty well off family. Maybe her dad is a big shot producer? That would explain her looking for talents, potentially wanting to strike out on her own. Real curious to see where sensei is taking us with that !

My wild guess from a month ago ended up being pretty close :O

Another plan is in motion.

With you there.

Since her father is a music producer and is interested in meeting Mitsuki, there’s a possibility that Mitsuki could get signed to a record label (if we view it optimistically).

Having seen what the "industry" does to artists, I would say there's nothing optimistic about that at all...

Not particularly fond of this girl, either, tbh.

You ever feel like something has been going on far too long

My bad, I get where you're coming from, by how poorly the industry treats its artists.

Real eyes, realize, real lies

i'd love to see them to star to figuring things out by their own, like Mitsuki doing something impulsive and triggering Aya to say some big deal or vice verse
Mitsuki letting out something like "but I wrote them for you." after a arguer (proceding to be the most sapphic song ever) making Aya actually going to search and translate n being like Bella figuring out Vampires
and Narita and Co be surprise but also proud but also "HOW THE FUCK THOSE TWO ROMANCE INCOPETENTS AND OBLIVIOUS DORKS COULD DO THIS TO ME???? (organize a whole fucking prom for them to confess, and they doing it by the soda machine 3pm on a Wednesday)

I like the idea, the only problem would be that a Wednesday afternoon is the perfect day and time for a confession, and neither of them is that smooth or experienced enough to do it on purpose or lucky enough to do it on accident. I personally am still holding out for them to have a "MANGA MOMENT" (the accidental push at just the right time for a quick kiss) preferably in front of Uncle Joe or the friend group or both.

My headcanon for how they'll end up kissing is that Mitsuki will have just finished making a big romantic gesture like playing Aya a song and revealing that she wrote it for her (but like as a friend y'know, not in a gay way or anything like that), and Aya will be so overcome with emotion that she'll just grab Mitsuki's face and pull her in and kiss her HARD, probably causing Mitsuki to short-circuit.

The new girl is speed running Mitsuki meeting her parents… new girl about to invite Mitsuki to her home before Aya does, AND THEYRE NOT EVEN FRIENDS

That kohai is NOT someone to be underestimated OML

If we’re viewing it optimistically, he could own his own label and he’s like, one of the few good ppl in the industry? Or at least knows a good label to sign her to? Or at the very least, could encourage her to pursue music further?

I’m hoping n im coping

Hime's dad kinda looks like Steve Albini. the famous late audio engineer and producer from the late 80's to 2020's. I wouldn't be surprised if Sumiko included him as a tribute since Albini is synonymous for producing with many bands from the 90's to the last ones of 2024.

I feel like we're getting this close to this moment. that's what I'm hoping for. or a different variation of what y'all describing.

Oh goodie, Dad is one of those snobs. I admit sometimes a cover doesn't live up to expectations subjectively, but it seems he treats it all objectively. UGH.

Really miss when the music was the yin to yuri's yang but now it feels more like an entree with an optional side dish

I'd believe it, and if so, I appreciate that this character shares his cantankerous nature as well

rereading the whole thing bc vol.1 just came out in english and..

Makes me chuckle to see yuri referred to as the "yang" in your comparison.

Exactly my point! ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) (apologies, my bad for not conveying it properly)

The just do it on the back of Narita's jacket is like a hint at what his saying to Aya :D

I did not realize that lol

That’s so sweet

Mitsuki COULD say no. Please say no!

Really hopin Aya doesn’t run away (or if she does run, Mitsuki runs after her) and waits for Mitsuki’s answer.
