Pretty causal episode.

Seriously though, the silliness of this show is so weird at times. So Rina tries to show off her shooting skills but...not working out well. I kinda miss Suzuki now, she's been off the picture except in the backgrounds.

Kouta missed out on his change for bromance.
Well it was obvious that he could not win against an invitation from Izumi.
Still he interrupted their conversation in the end.

And we got to see some parts of Izumi we didn't see before.
It was also nice to see the other characters.

Kouta feeling down after finding out Itsuki was going out with the president. Sat down on the bench. Cosplayers talked to him. Happy. Took photo with them. Then feeling down again. lol

I thought that something strange happen that Kouta was stuck in the game. But turns out not. That ending with Aika though. Something serious is coming up in the real world?

That at the end tho. I wonder if she's the only one who can travel between the online world and the real.... (at least that's what I think is happening). We, that's it for the introductions. I wonder next episode is where things start for rea....l

Pretty corny episode but I liked it.

Rina was pretty darned cute.

In a dark place surrounded by callous walls. lmao

But yeah, something looks up with the Aika. Wonder if the PSO world is connected with the real world with that last scene.

That was a fun convention based episode lol

Was nice to see the rest of the party IRL as well as to see them interact with one another but my goodness Itsuki and Izumi make such a great couple

And it looks like Aika is definitely from the PSO world considering that now stuff from the game is also seeping into the real world like she has

How cheesy lol
I thought he was stuck in some dark room with the door locked but it turns out he was stuck in the restroom because it had no toilet paper.

Prez eating the crumbs from Kouta's cheek, ok that's so calling for a couple relationship even if prez keeps denying it.
The shooting scene would have been better if Kouta actually helped her get the teddy bear.The whole outside group was saying, "no one can talk to her".
But overall it was nice episode. Prez's clothes very casual and cute.

I'm going to make a far off guess and say that the blonde girl is actually from the "game world" that somehow came into ours to search for other "portals" and kill whatever came out of it.

At least that is what my impression is at the end of this episode.

"I want nobody, nobody but you..."

I think this can still go two ways; the first is that digital entities are becoming real possibly due to the D-Arkers' powers or whatever, similar to Digimon. The other is that ARKS actually does exist in this universe, and that the game is a front for a training and operative-selection program so they can immediately add competent fighters to their number. I think the latter's more interesting, but considering the show's performance so far it'll most likely be something similar to the former option.

Pretty boring except that during the narration you discover who I really am the Itsuki friends and for the final putting some curiosity. Drawings and animations in the media, I hope that in the next episode you find out more about the character Aika.

I thought Kouta was abducted/dragged in the game, but he just got lost and had a tummy emergency.

Seeing the Prez acting all casual and cute was nice.

I'm sure Suzuki acts so much in-character, because it is her character.

Do Japanese MMORPG players actually role-play this hard regularly?
