Why it matters
The episode makes the case that Kurumi's problem is addiction rather than finance, since watching a fellow trader succeed without her is the enabler that pulls her back in.

Kurumi's return to trading is framed as inevitable rather than impulsive. The episode shows her filling the gap with bonsai, tarot and camping books, then treating those pursuits as motions she can abandon once she has said she tried. A pachinko session costing 5,000 yen does nothing for her, and the episode gives the reason: she dislikes it because she cannot understand it, whereas forex is a system she grasps while it drains her. The charts stay up on her monitor throughout, nominally because she is consulting for Mebuki.
