Ep. 8: Rio konfrontiert ihre Körperbildprobleme und verschmilzt nach einer stürmischen Nacht mit ihrem Klon

8

Rio explains she has struggled with her confidence about her body; while a part of her enjoys the attention, the other dislikes having her appearance be the cause of it, leading to the former manifesting as her clone. Realizing the other Rio was posting the images online; at the train station, she receives a threatening message from an unknown user and asks Sakuta to go home with her. That night, Sakuta convinces Yuma to visit and the three play with fireworks on the beach before making plans to visit the fireworks festival. The next day, the Rio at Sakuta's house runs away, forcing him to search for her in the rain; he finds her at school, but collapses from a cold. In the hospital, Sakuta reassures Rio about being herself. She later calls her other self and asks to go to the festival, unifying them. (Source: Wikipedia)
