Notes: In the next episode preview at the end, we opted to translate Alice’s “producer” as “manager,” even though they’re using the English word. The Japanese definition of this word is actually pretty different than the English definition of it, and having already seen episode 4 at this point, our feeling is that “manager” better fits her intentions.

A note about “Middle School”, especially for those in the US: Middle School in Japan is equivalent to grades 7, 8, and 9 in the US (and typically ages 13-15). Where the confusion lies for this is that in many parts of the US, this is referred to as “Junior High School”, and “Middle School” is grades 6-8 instead (ages 12-14).
