As of the sixth episode of BanG Dream! YUME∞MITA, Ritsu joins her childhood friend Arale and the rest of MewType, leaving behind the dangerous dynamic with her former group Fairy Bouquet and antagonist Viola. The episode's analysis highlights the repaired but still fragile friendship between Ritsu and Arale, and the potential support Ritsu may find in bandmate Nonoka.
The sixth episode of BanG Dream! YUME∞MITA marks Ritsu's official entry into MewType, reuniting her with childhood friend Arale. The move ends her time with Fairy Bouquet, where she was tormented by the antagonist Viola, but the analysis notes the reunion is not a clean break. Arale and Ritsu still carry communication gaps from Viola's interference, and the pair have yet to fully bridge the distance that kept them apart.
Among MewType's members, Nonoka stands out as the most likely source of immediate support. She has already shown a willingness to shield fellow members from online harassment, a trait that could prove vital for Ritsu, who is more sensitive to such pressure. The piece frames this stage as a natural point to assess how each band member might connect with Ritsu as the story moves forward.
