A.I may destroy humanity, but social media long before justified it.

Akane, liker her lack of presence suggests, snuck out of nowhere this episode to steal the central drama. I didn't even realize she was a main girl through the op or anything. Aqua was a bit serendipitous to catch her, wasn't he? He had shown roughly zero interest in her this whole time, but I guess was keeping tabs on her mental health? Did I miss something?
