Ep. 19: Kyoko struggles with acting while Sho and Mimori face emotional tension

Kyoko feels frustrated about her inability to kill Sho like an angel, prompting her to call Moko for advice. She imagines killing Moko’s lover but calls Ren instead, leaving a vague voice message to hide her issues. On set, Kyoko displays deep anger before filming a scene where she cries with angelic grace, shocking Sho and causing him to forget his lines. Workers note the pair looks like a couple, and despite teasing, they perform perfectly. Later, Mimori visits Sho, crying because she believes he thinks of Kyoko. Sho hugs her, but his manager intervenes. Kyoko reflects on how Sho once ignored her tears as a child, leading her to cry alone with Corn, who was actually Ren. When Ren calls, Kyoko lies about having a wonderful day. Sho takes the phone, ending the call by claiming her appearance in his promo increased her fame, a remark Ren recognizes as coming from Sho Fuwa.
