Theme-wise, I think I kinda liked the twist that the betrayal part of the episode of Gou betraying himself.
He didn’t allow his friend to throw the game at the end because he didn’t want him to throw his dream away. Or something like that, the two seriously care.
But he clearly thought he still had a chance at winning against him.
And then he loses.
Had he not convinced Tokio to have a fair and square battle instead of walking away from it since Tokio didn’t want to battle Gou for the coins (he’s too sweet I-), he could have won the game. Then again, he probably would have felt guilty of it later on.
So.
He was betrayed.
Not by an outside source.
But by himself.
Or maybe I’m over-analysing I have no idea I have issues with Gou’s episodes narratives but this part is most interesting.
Just fricking watch him have a memory loss and we get memory loss good sad drama about it and it’s my dream scenario for the Mohn plot and I I I I am SO EXCITED FOR THIS EP-
It’s not looking good for Gou regarding PM, he’s not even close to top lol.
And sulks for losing because he wanted a fair battle. C'mon dude. Edit: I more over have an issue that it needed to be added that way. I felt it was unnecessary. And was kinda what I feared…
Otherwise fine ep but the way Gou somehow always needs some drama scene bothers me.
Also huh PM truly ending in just a year, I don’t understand, also adding new rivals THIS LATE feels so badly planned lol.
