What to Expect in Rent-a-Girlfriend Season 5 Episode 2?

In the first episode of this season, we saw that Chizuru finally opened up to Mami and mentioned how it’s wrong to reveal the truth without Kazuya knowing, as she is finally aware that Mami is the one lying and that she is dangerous. While Kazuya deserved every bit of his fate, it is also true that Mami is deliberately sabotaging his life.
In the next episode, we can expect Mami to finally snap. However, his anger wouldn’t be of a typical type, as the trailer of this season (posted on the Crunchyroll YouTube Channel) suggested that she would find a way to get the truth out to Kazuya’s grandmother.
Furthermore, we can expect Ruka’s aid as well. While Ruka doesn’t like Chizuru, because she wants Kazuya all for herself, she has shown many times that she can be trusted when the situations really demand it. We would likely see the reactions of Kazuya’s friend Yoshiaki Kibe and Kazuya’s grandmother. That moment can become the highlight of the entire season.
