Oh good, we found something stupider than Re:Zero's evil dog.

Impressions:

My god. Did they really explain what a festival is and then have a montage of setting up for a festival? And then a second montage of the festival? I can't even comprehend the logic behind the 'thing' of this episode either. People come from far and wide to see the world famous pop star perform, but the secret special awesome thing is… instead of her performing, some random-ass girl will sing badly! Everyone will love that! Because… she's the protagonist's sister? It's already a transparent ad for CDs, but Christ. It's almost enough to make one forget the especially godawful maid sequence thing, where everyone still supposedly thinks the petite C cup with glistening shaved legs is a male after forcibly stripping 'him.' Are we even trying anymore?

As for the rest, like usual, who even knows? Or cares? The fact that they felt like it was a good use of time to explain what festivals are is clue enough that this episode wasn't going to be accomplishing jack squat. We check in with a few characters who are just sitting around and/or screaming obnoxiously, and a cleaveage haver whose character design shows up in every other LN to date goes around knocking out random characters who I'm not even certain are named. Also, there are roombas. Because what else is a better tool of subterfuge than large, obtrusive, whirring robots getting underfoot?

Closeups of faces and bad animation.
