Wouldn't they find it odd to see that she's featured twice? I mean, personally I would ask that question if it was my first time.

But there was a nice symbolism there, Midori surrounded by shadows, possibly seemingly emerging from the shadow of the canopy.

Also, I looked into the ED, and while the foreshadowing you all interpreted is nice and all, there's just one tiny detail they might've intentionally left out: Kengo's not wearing the jumper.
