Studio in Uproar In #6, an unexpected development unfolds on the final day. As the members gather in the living room for "Destiny's Confession Time," they are prescribed an "okusuri" (medicine/device) that states, "You are free to confess or not. If there is someone you want to convey your current feelings to, please express them as they are." However, a certain event causes a clash of emotions between the male and female members, leading to exclamations from the studio like "Have you ever seen a romance show like this!?"
