What happens in the episode

This episode advances the idol-project mystery by putting the group under another demand from the agency-and-Wall system. In PopRot terms, the important movement is not only the task itself, but how the girls process being turned into performers before they feel emotionally ready.

The key viewing angle is the gap between public idol polish and private discomfort. The show keeps asking whether a group created by orders can become a real unit once the members start seeing one another’s fears, histories, and strengths.

Watch or skip?

Watch. 22/7 is character-forward, so even setup-heavy episodes matter for understanding later group tension. Completionists should also watch the extra episode because it closes the anime experience as bonus material.
