As revealed in one of the previous episodes, Akane Kurokawa jumped into the world of acting as a child because she admired Kana Arima. She was looking forward to meeting Kana but soon realized the harsh reality about her personality as she wasn't as nice as she thought she would be.

This origin story will finally be revealed in detail in the upcoming episode. With that, fans will get a deeper look at Akane's character and how she turned up the way she did. This includes her transition from being an innocent actor aspirant to a genius actor.

As fans would know, Kana Arima was previously renowned as a genius child actor. She was most popular for her bell pepper exercises and was also featured in several films due to her amazing acting skills. However, soon after as she grew older, people stopped hiring her, given how difficult it was for her co-stars to match her. Therefore, Kana transitioned into an actress who was easy to work with.

While fans know this backstory, the upcoming episode could delve much deeper into this past. Such a backstory could also possibly reveal what Kana Arima thought of Akane Kurokawa when she first met him in the past as a child actor.

While Kana has had trouble calling Akane her rival, before the opening of the stage play, she made sure to express her goal to Akane. She thought of herself to be the complete opposite of Akane. Hence, she wished to defeat her in acting and was glad that she got the opportunity to do so on stage.

With the previews suggesting Kana vs. Akane in the upcoming episode, fans could finally find out which one of the two female actors is the better actress, Kana Arima, the once genius child actress, or Akane Kurokawa, the one renowned as a genius actor right now.
