Kasa7 was traumatizing. I hope all of you are okay. I aren't.

Here's a summary for people who are suffering from shock-hysteria-brain-fever-shock:

[WxS gets their own stage to perform a play. In the play, William(Kasa) goes to heaven, and with the help of an angel(Emu), visits his daughter Amelia(Nene) who killed him accidentally in a struggle. Escaping from heaven is a big sin, and the big angel(Rui) banishes angel!Emu, but legally he can't send a man in heaven to hell unless they do something bad enough to be sent to hell himself. To do this, he tells William that Amelia will go to hell for killing him and will lose her memories, causing her to forget him and suffer forever with no reason why. He also tells him that to prevent this, William could kill Amelia and cause the both of them to go to hell. It'd be a shitty situation, but at least they wouldn't have to forget each other. William decides to take the angel up on this and goes to kill Amelia, but in the end he is incapable of doing so when Amelia begs him to stay in heaven and promises not to forget him even when she goes to hell.

However, because of all this, big Angel broke the rules of heaven by sending William to earth and is killed by Emu Angel. William, who was given a human body, is not allowed to return to heaven, and the angel allows him to stay on earth with his loving daughter. ]

Wow that was long. So their play went on for 2 weeks, but around the first few performances Sakaki comes to visit them and offers acting advice. Because he was the one who recommended WxS to the stage in the first place( and because he's influencial and famous) they take him up on this offer, and the FIRST THING this bitch decides to do if tell them all to do a 5 minute acting challenge where they must kill their loved ones. Yeah.

(He says he was only interested in training Tsukasa but the other 3 stuck by him)

This practice is rough, and it causes EMU to have a mental breakdown over the thought of hurting her brothers and sisters. Tsukasa struggles at first(as he should) saying that he could not imagine hurting his beloved family, but he slowly makes progress that improves the show. HOWEVER, one practice, Sakaki 👿stops a distressed Tsukasa who he claims "wasn't getting anywhere" because he was upset thinking about killing his parents, and tells him to stop imagining it and if he has anything from his past to back up upon????? 🚨🚨🚨🚨

Why would you say that to someone???

Tsukasa mentions a moment in the past where he came back home and there was no one there and he spent many hours alone and scared in that massive-ass tenma house while his parents missed all his calls and basically clean forgot about him because they were with a very sick Saki. Sakaki decides that is a good enough "base".

{He also says Tsukasa's too good and straightforward of a person to understand 'selfish' feelings, but he was too good it was a little strange. there's a cliffhanger here}

To further explore these feelings, Tsukasa asks his parents to leave the house for a night as he has a flashback(loved the special effects of the house distorting around baby Tsukasa) and remembers the day in further detail. He talks about how despite understanding his parents had to be there for Saki, who was so sick they never knew what tomorrow would bring, he selfishly cursed them for forgetting him. Because he was so disgusted in himself for being this 'selfish', he banished the memory and stopped thinking about it. (Oh my poor baby............why........)

Saki comes home with cake. Tsukasa tells her and their parents to stop talking to him for the remainder of the show's running time. I really hope he ate that cake at least tho. He deserves it.

He goes into a trance as he starts to obsess over pushing his mother off the top of the stairs. Sakaki encounters him, blanked-eyed and muttering to himself on the way home from practice, decides he's doing a-okay and LEAVES HIM THERE. 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

Also Asahi is completely MIA throughout the course of the story. Considering he had a close relationship with Sakaki during Kasa6, it's interesting to wonder why.

Kasa tells the rest of WxS to stop talking to him and almost kills Len in his acting trance when he comes to visit him. Rui tries to warn Sakaki AGAIN(he warned him once near the beginning of the exercise) that this was extremely harmful to Tsukasa's emotional health, but Sakaki brushes these concerns off for the sake of acting. However, it reaches a point, and WxS confront him and tell him he cares about them. He cries They cry they do wonderhoy.

Tsukasa has a breakdown on stage(that's where the card art comes in) but overall, the show is a success. He is so fatigued by the end that he almost collapses and Emu and Nene have to help carry him. Sakaki, who is watching from the audience, observes that Tsukasa has not "Fallen fully" and is not "completely gone" yet.

After the show, Rui struggles with his emotions about Tsukasa's method acting. One one hand, Sakaki's method brought Tsukasa's acting to heights Rui was unable to, but at the cost of causing Tsukasa severe emotional peril. Rui is protective and grapples with how to direct Tsukasa in the future.
