I am a big fan of this manga and so far I am of two minds on this adaptation. First is that the humor is still there and still funny. In particular this episode gave us one of my favorite characters (Manda) and one of my favorite recurring gags (Dragon Kirio). However, the pacing feels really slow. I feel like the comedy would hit more if the episode was just sped up like 15% or something.











This continues to be simultaneously one of the most baffling yet compelling things I have watched in some time. It was really interesting how they had the occasional focus of Ame playing a piano version of Internet Overdose sprinkled through the episode. Speaking of Internet Overdose, it seems like they just released an official Anime Version of the MV. Weirdly, it is a bit more coherent than the original that was released with the game.
This episode marks where a lot of people will evaluate whether to continue watching or not (three episode rule). I can’t really say where this is going to go, but it has my full attention.
