天下制覇

Sadly, that may have been the height of the episode.

Area0 put up a promo for their next game. It looks… kind of the same as all the rest but with fewer gauges this time. Also, Total Eclipse is off this week, instead airing a "pre-climax special" which was just a recap/clips show. I’m also really not sure that you can call the current non-arc a climax in any way, shape, or form. The ending was the only new part of the episode.

Impressions:

Very dull episode, but at least it continues to be incomprehensible. That’s at least better than being utterly bland and unnotable in every way which most of the first half was. They’re in a… hot spring town. And they go into the hot springs. But the antagonist is there too, getting his de-balled junk blasted by a tengu stream. This is how we spent the first 12 minutes before he wandered off to the red light district and began glowing for inexplicable reasons. Apparently this is so important an event that it’s going to stretch across multiple episodes into an entire arc. That’s right. "He’s glowing," is the plot for an arc.
