'Love and Lies' Episode 5 Spoilers: Can True Feelings Finally Bloom When 4 Friends Go on a Camping Trip?
Nejima and friends are off on a camping trip on the next episode of the Japanese speculative romance anime series "Love and Lies."
The brief preview shown at the end of the previous episode reveals that all four teenagers will be coming on the trip organized by Nejima's mother. It will be interesting to see how their interactions will be like, especially after the kiss Nejima and Misaki previously shared at school. It was also for this reason that Nejima literally begged his best male friend, Nisaka, to come along.
How will this camping trip turn out? Will Nisaka's being there really help Nejima deal with the confused feelings he has for Misaki, the girl he likes, and Ririna, his government-assigned marriage partner? On the other hand, will it only cause him to further delay confronting his own feelings?
