This is a strong episode, I'm tempted to call it the only good thing to come out of Flash. A critique of pedestalization of women, and otaku sexuality particularly. It's enjoyable to see Yuri relish the pleasures of the body, mainly her sexuality and eating (sadly, no peeing though) in opposition to the unliving, sexless, hungerless, excretion-less "pure" ideal. Julian is maybe the only time somebody is drawn in shoujo style in anything Dirty pair. Enjoyed being now able to pick out two of the the references to other anime in Yuri's costumes (aside from her 80s uniform, ofc): the Cat's Eye leotard and Mary Antoinette from Versailles no bara.

This episode was episode probably derived from the original series episode with a similar premise, but this is the only time I can say Flash actually improved on the original.

I felt the same like user above. This episode is a criticism about idealization that happens in otaku heads.

This episode had potential, but i feel it was bad executed. One would think Julian would be crazy for having the real Yuri for 3 days, but he didn't even cared, and continued reparing his Yuri doll. In the end Yuri won't be able to fullfil everyone's dream of retiring in her/his 20's.

the concept behind this episode was actually very very good, serious and important to discuss.
the idealization of women is a real problem a lot of people tend to have.
also I like a lot the original yuri's outfit, a nice callback
