TREASURE – Mysterious Class Episodes 7 & 8

The final chapters of this fantastic mini-series bring all the tension, emotion, and unexpected twists we could have hoped for. First up, we pick up right where episode 6 left off—the class now knows Haruto is the ghost, but the real question is: what happens next? Our pre-episode predictions range from eerily accurate to completely absurd, but honestly, that feels fitting for a show that thrives on both mystery and playful unpredictability.

As the truth sinks in, a divi...

WayV – Playing a Drawing Game Will Drive You to Tears… of Joy

WayV take on a drawing relay challenge, and the results are as chaotic as you’d expect. The game requires one member to draw a clue on another’s back, with that person then attempting to recreate the drawing based solely on what they felt. This continues down the line until the final member presents their masterpiece and guesses the original clue—though whether it resembles anything close to reality is another story.

Split into two teams, it quickly becomes clear that som...
