Yandere Dark Elf episode 8 recap

The episode begins with Sakura Mochida lost in thought, unable to decide what to illustrate for a comic event. Suddenly, she recalls Mariabelle, and inspiration strikes her mind. She quickly draws something and seems pleased with it.
The next day, Sakura shares her illustration with Mariabelle and Hinata, who love it immensely. Sakura mentions she has been interested in anime and manga since childhood, which is why she enjoys drawing doujinshi. She reveals that she was inspired by Bell and Hinata to create a fantasy story about swords and magic.
Meanwhile, Sakura asks Bell and Hinata if they would cosplay and help her sell the doujinshi at the comic event. Mariabelle, who hasn't participated in anything like this before, reluctantly agrees. Following this, the episode shows Sakura taking Bell's measurements. During their conversation, Mariabelle invites Sakura to cosplay with them at the event.

Finally, the day of the event arrives. Sakura, Bell, and Hinata appear wearing vibrant dresses as they head to their booth. While Sakura's doujinshi doesn't sell at first, she eventually gets a customer. After that, a crowd gathers around her booth. Sakura feels overjoyed, as she never expected her work to sell so well.
Meanwhile, Hinata reflects on the time he spent with Bell and the others in the other realm, glancing at the dress he is wearing. He comments on Sakura's diligence and passion. The episode concludes with Sakura Mochida thanking the duo for their support.
