I'm a little worried for Ikuto here. Yeah, he wants to be a designer and he definitely has the vision for it, but can he lead as a chief designer? Probably not at first. Will he be able to stand his ground when his team is unable to accomplish his vision? Because most of the series now, Ikuto is used to taking and accomplishing orders without fail, but also had to compromise a lot. He's quite the passive character, so he might be unable to apply the pressure necessary as chief designer, but we do know he's learning when he subconsciously emitted that pressure on the manufacturers for the towel fabric.
