| Natsuko in a nutshell. But I admire her passion for creativity and using her skill to the limits. This episode's action and fighting gave another cinematic look. They fought a monster centipede and it came together in an exposive fashion. Unio deserves some credit for its efforts too though. Same with Memmeln and Luke. This was a team effort. |
 |
| Was confused in the beginning since the last episode ended on that cliff hanger. Well they got her to say yes pretty easy. I thought there would be more of a push needed. Wth is that preview haha. Wasn't the backstory episode I was expecting but looks like they're gonna tackle the first love theme. |
| ๐ท |
| "Maybe I can't fly, but you can" Uh, no thanks Unio, I will take the stairs. |

| Stairs seems to be too mundane for a homage, but this one in particular might be the one in Utena? |
 |
| It really did take a group effort to defeat that monster. When they work together they look unstoppable. |
| AHHHH MY HATERS TO LOVERS SHIP IS SAILING FOR SURE!! Look how Luke looks at Natsuko man he’s so in love with her ๐ best episode yet. Natsuko finally realizing she can’t do everything by herself, planning the battle strategy with everyone and even getting justice back in the fight!! It only took 6 weeks, but they’re finally a team now. Huge milestone for Natsuko development. YURIFICATION!! Natsuko and Memmeln crumbs?? So cute how Natsuko is still a Stan of all the characters in the show and wants to draw their faces lol. Luke’s reaction when she said she could draw all his expressions was so cute! Justice overcoming her pain and damaged wing to help Natsuko in the fight was soo touching. That unio kicking Luke scene was so dope. You can tell Mappa are having so much fun with this show and it comes through in all the character interactions and big fights. Nice to see them doing something besides WSJ shit. Ending is toooo cute. Luke’s heart is unlocked. That confession coming soon |

| Natsuko was ultimately saved from that attack but she learned a very valuable lesson that she doesn't have to do everything all alone. She has comrades who are there to protect her and take care of her work in her place, both in this world and the real world. She needed this lesson very quickly. The Void was very close to its goal but Justice came in clutch alongside the other Nine Soldiers and this time around, Natsuko's main job was to assist Luke, Unio, and others which she wonderfully did through those stairs. Justice gave his all in this episode. I really like him. Memmel was indeed very cute in this episode as well as Natsuko. And, now everyone is realizing that Luke has fallen in love with Natsuko and how much he cares about her. It's very cute. Next week's ep. I can't wait to see it. We finally gonna see Natsuko's backstory and the theme of her 'First Love'. And, it's a special one since the staff really liked it as well. |

| @Pre_Yum It's true Natsuko doesn't have to do everything alone and she needed that lesson, but that doesn't mean she's magically going to be able to co-op with other people perfectly. That's the real struggle in life. Hyped for the next episode! I'm pretty sure Natsuko's "first love" is her love for the "art of animation" lol. |
| I mean, Memm did sum it up in a sentence. With Natsuko being reckless ect.. really does fit. But you can see the developing friendships, so it all works out. Nice to see them be friendly with each other Luke's pose for the Nine Soldiers with the L on his forehead XD awesome Nice for them to prepare for the rematch, making a sword guy simply won't cut it against the evolving monster. It might have been better off keeping a liquid form instead of becoming a giant centipede Poetic for Unio's horn to fall off after how much it was jabbed in places XD And I'm glad to see Justice overcome wing problems to carry Natsuko + desk up to the others. |
  |
| It's nice to see Natsuko learning and realizing that it's good and beneficial to everyone involved to work as a team. On that note it looks like Justice did not rescue Natsuko in the previous episode but she was instead blown away and healed by Memmeln. |
| it was a good ep this time she didn't fight alone... |

| natsuko is a playmaker this time ye she is learning teamwork now natsuko in pony tail is beautiful next episode is titled first love ye luke is the first love of natsuko the reason she started drawing like hinted in this episode when natsuko said she knows how to draw all the expressions of luke |
| Great teamwork dealing with that void. I thought Natsuko would stay arrogant, but at least she opened her eyes and accepted help. There were some beautiful moments in the animation. Seriously, was today's summoning just a staircase? |
| Great episode. This anime is getting better and better every episode. |
| This is my fav ep so far by a long shot! finally getting to see everyone actually work together was great and hopefully Luke and Justice reconciling means we'll see more of him in the future! I can't wait for the meta plot to start picking up more steam now that we've established who all the characters are and how they interact (mostly)! |
 |
| My expectations were subverted with that Justice subplot. I was certain he would intervene in the last episode's cliffhanger! I like team player Natsuko, seeing everyone shine was cool. |
 |
| defintiely a sleeper series lol |
   |
| I was really confused at the start, they didn't show anything from the last episode's ending and just moved along like nothing happened. Glad to see Natsuko is no a team plyer, even Justice came back to help everyone. |

| Natsuko finally learn to work together with the others is nice and all, but... I can't stress it enough, Natsuko only draw stairs this week to make the other nine soldiers did something lmao It's only giant centipede at the end, surely she just can draw gundam with sword or something |
Shirobako is AOTY 2015. Deal with it. |
| Natsuko was saved off screen by the Voild attack before making its way to the last town, she continues to struggle with trusting her teammates as Natsuko is the one who changed everyone's fates. Thankfully Natsuko was able to provide support for the next void monster attack and letting Luke deliver the final blow this time. Luke is falling harder and harder for Natsuko that even Justice is starting to take notice. |
 |
Well, Natsuko did really turn the tide into their favor. and I like that she's beginning to work cooperatively with others. I was wondering where the other "Nine Soldiers" are... I'm glad that they answered it here. |

| Natsuko is growing (finally). This time she only drew stairs. Can't she give wings to everyone or jetpack or something instead? Or that's not how it works, I wonder? |
| This aníme is superb. A love letter to anime as a medium from throwbacks to classics through Natsukos drawing to modern. The most remarkable thing is the pacing though. It feels like we've seen this cast for much more than just 6 episodes, which doesn't happen much in anime. |
 |
| Like A Dragon; Luke... Flew. ๐ซ๐ชฐ |
 |
| This episode was SICK; That fight was HYPE and the animation was AMAZING!!! The voice acting on this episode was also very well done!!! I also really love when they blend the last scene of the episode with the ending music; WHAT AN AMAZING EPISODE!!! |
My Candies:   |
| This was definitely a... different direction for the show. Not really sure it added any value to the storyline, however. |
 |
| OK, that fight was pretty exciting, creative and satisfying. The show is turning out to have more heart than I initially thought. A little disappointing that Natsuko didn't draw anything cool, but I get that that's the point. |
