I revert back to the opening statement often and in a lot of ways it’s referred to differently depending on the character. Aya appearing from the past, Kota refusing to shed light on the past that Aya wasn’t apart of. For Erika, it feels like she tries to chase after both of their “starlight” wanting to replicate Aya’s to become a source of light for Kota and wanting Kota shine once again. The scene when Kota asks if they should date she stands under a street light it’s artificial. Now that I think about it both Aya and Erika have been shown under stage lights, hmm. Realizing she can’t catch up to Aya she writes on a tanzaku wishing for her to return, she could’ve wished for Kota to return her feelings but didn’t. I interpreted her doing so in a way she wishes for Kota to get her light back but she knows it’s stuck in the past with Aya.
