This article seems wayyyy too early in the show's run to make sense. Some of the author's plot synopsis seems to be based on promotional material rather than the show itself (I don't read blurbs before watching and I got no indication of why the main character has writers block for her movie, but the article confidently states it's because she's never been in love).
The anime was visually stunning, but it seems like it hasn't really given us its plot trajectory or laid out its themes yet, and you wouldn't necessarily expect it to from one episode. I'm not confident the article is wrong, but I just hate that algorithms put journalists and content creators in a position where they have to put things out when they're most topical, even if it's more speculation than observation at that point.
This is indeed something that the blurb states very straightforwardly.
