satou thinks hes getting catfished by someone using ai nudes. yamazaki gets really popular on fanbox by generating 100 images of asuka soryu langley per day. misakis mental health deteriorates as she tries using chatgpt as a therapist. satou meets the person who he thinks was catfishing him but she just looks that way. yamazaki is driven off of the internet because he mistagged her as "asuka shikinami langley". misaki doesnt get better.
its not something that crosses satous mind until he sees yamazaki hacking away at a prompt to try and get the most verisimilitudinous render of asuka he can but from that moment on it rots his brain all the way through
