Thanks for subbing!

Just finished watching the episode!

Loved the 99.9 reference made by Airi.
I'm glad that Chikara is married to Akari. Her saying no first is only out of concern for him, but they're both genuinely good people and their dynamic works.
That bit about Chikara not minding the grandma repeating her story and letting Takuya cry on his shoulders were really heartfelt.

I suspected the grandma had dementia and it must suck for Takuya to have his only family forget about him. His outbursts were justified. Like yea, his grandma raised him and now he has the obligation to return the favour. It's his only family after all. But I also I understand his feelings of wanting to be selfish and doing things for himself. He's also quite young and it's not easy to suddenly become the caretaker. But we know he's actually a good kid.
That scene where grandma almost took her own life because of her love for her grandson was quite sad. But it wouldn't have solved anything as it would just place a guilty conscience in Takuya's head (bc again, he's a good kid).
I'm glad that it worked out in the end, but I'm sure irl, it will continue to be a challenge for them. Quite fitting when she started playing Sukiyaki. A good choice for a theme song too.

Also, interesting that Grandma realised Chikara's been observing them from the cafe across their building. I wonder if the other neighbours will also start to notice him as well.
