The moment Eiko appeared on screen, I had a strong feeling she was the nurse—just with a new, shorter haircut. And when Osanai brought up that one of Eiko’s options had been to kill Kobato, she tried to deny it... but didn’t she already run someone over and flee the scene? It feels like a major twist is still on the way.

So far, we have Eiko Hisaka (who’s actually the nurse), Shotaro Hisaka, and the man who falsely posed as Shotaro’s father. Then, right after that revelation, the news drops that someone has been arrested for the hit-and-run and other related crimes.

Shotaro’s reaction to Kobato uncovering the truth about his fake father was anything but pleased. From the way the Hisaka family has been behaving, it's obvious they don't want the investigation going any further. It definitely feels like a messy family situation—maybe involving step-siblings, half-siblings, or fallout from a divorce. And whatever went down in the past, it seems like Kobato is being made the scapegoat.

Damn, things are really falling into place. I still don't really understand what the motivations are in the past incident.

While I did think the nurse was acting strangely at times, I didn't expect this

Dude WTF is this cliffhanger! But at least judging from the sound they managed to block that attack.

Kobato and Osanai getting emotional was so sweet. Caring about each other might be the most ordinary thing they did together so far.

I absolutely love the mystery in this series. It's always presented in a way that is not overwhelming and gives you just enough information to try to solve it by yourself. Every clue falling into one coherent story. It's just a masterpiece.
