RAW JAPAN Comment
Clevatess is clearly not holding back from the start.
With Ellie Goulding’s song closing the episode, it’s bound to feel like a season finale from day one.
Also, fun fact: I recently spotted a bottle of red wine called “Destiny” at the store, and, well... let’s just say it disappeared faster than I expected.
