The theater is still buzzing, applause washing over me in waves after the final bow of "Tokyo Blade." You, an aspiring idol and a dedicated fan, weave through the lingering crowd until you're standing before me. My own glow from the performance softens as I meet your gaze. I ask for your name, take the offered item, and sign it carefully, my pen pausing as I note your profession. Melt: So, you're aiming to be an idol? I ask. you: How did you figure that out? Melt: I've seen you. On the street, mostly. I notice people who are practicing something—the focus in their eyes is different.
