Lol, they got tricked again, but in the end they discovered her brother, and he is a hikikomori too.

They're under a trio of morons these guys, getting tricked at that level.

She actually managed to trick them again XD

So Megumi's borhter is what Sato could have become if he didn't stop playing the game. He's... Really pathetic. This is really good to watch though, I hope there is some kind of good solution for Megumi and her brother. Though this is not the kind of anime that guarantees happiness... Except for the resolution of the suicide island arc.

lol damnit he got fooled twice. But yeah it's kind of your fault in the first place buying those excessive products and then you also have a useless brother.

At this point every episode that this fillery shit goes on I'm reducing 0.5 from my final rating. There are just so many things wrong with this arc (I'm counting both the pyramid scheme and the MMO here since they're connected) it's not even funny.

"Thank you! Tell your friends about books!" "I will!" Was that a weird dub adlib they kept in for shits and giggles? Tell your friends...about books? Maybe Sato should read some real literature though.

"I get it! Suck me dry!" Misaki bursts the fuck in, "Can I help?". That was absolutely intentional.

Instant food has no correlation to being depressed/a hikikomori. I eat a ton of vegetables every damn day and still am depressed and want to avoid people lol.

All three of them got scammed! Damn, snake oil salesmen and women are tricky.

I actually feel sorry for Megumi, so far deep in this pyramid scheme, with her "pet" actually being a nastier version of Sato/her brother that she's been forced to take care of. He literally saw a group of people behind him and broke down crying.

Of course, if any of the shit she was actually selling worked, she'd be able to use it on her brother.

Wow, Sato's stupidity apparently rubs off on others too. It looks like they find yet another messed up person who's an even worse hikikomori than Sato. This was a "meh" episode but at least the pyramid scheme arc seems to come to a close soon.

First the suicide arc, then the MMO arc and now a pyramid scheme...
The start was great, but it (and Sato) keeps going downhill. You think he'd get his shit together after the boat scene with Misaki, but no. It's the classical "oh, you solved this, but now you will have to solve the next problem we created because reasons. And we still barely know anything about Misaki.

Sometimes she seems to be smart, although you could tell that she was weird with the way she "counsels" Sato. Oh dear, I really hope they will be able to turn the corner and make the ending worth the journey.

ugh, this was so stupid to the point of being annoying, but i guess they made the situation just to bring them to the class rep's house and meet her brother. still there could've been another way of doing it. i still have hopes for the last few episodes, let's see how it evolves

I thought, how could they fall for it, even though they came prepared? But if we were in that situation, it might not be as crystal clear...

Good episode. Though, I gotta say I'm not sure where the series is heading at the moment. It seems like it's going to expand on Megumi and her brother. Can't wait to see the next episode!

I was like "don't listen to the class rep" the whole time. It's painful to watch the three of them being scammed.

Now I don't blame Satou for what happened last episode. I expected better since Misaki was with them but they all got tricked. At least Misaki's book have brought them to reality!

Agreed. With six episodes left there's not much time, unless this is all part of the final arc. Otherwise I hope there will be a proper finale anyway.

i kind of agree with others that are annoyed. this has been going on for too long with barely any development. at least the suicide arc opened up the possibility for major growth but it's like everything has been shit since then and we're just spinning our wheels here.

Guess they can't refrain from another bait manipulated by Megumi! She just has her ways with her words. How does it feel to be tricked Yamazaki and Misaki? BAKA!

Megumi is too deep into this mess and not only that, if she does not do this job, she will lose the income needed to support herself and especially; her hikikomori older brother. She sure does have strong compassion for her brother to go this far for him.

I think they are getting dumber and dumber with each episode, lol. I'm shocked that Misaki fell into that as well.

They bought that cheap talk and became members of that financial pyramid. Good that they managed to quit as fast as it was possible.

About Satou's highschool friend's brother... take a closer look, lads: this is how a real hikikomori looks like. Not Satou, but that guy.

The series is good so far, I’m watching it with pleasure. It’s giving me different feeling: happiness, sadness and so on. It was a bit sad that Hitomi will marry Jogasaki, a part of me would have seen Satou with her but it was obvious that it wouldn’t happen.

Plot convenience; It turns out that the random guy Satou and Yamazaki formed a party with to kill the dragon lives with Megumi, the representative of Satou's class, and they also visited Megumi just at the right time when he's playing and angry hitting the ground -but I'll assume he does that most of the time-, and they sneaked into his room just at the right moment.

He's also the reason Megumi called Satou in the first place, because he happened to shout a random player's name and she happened to hear her classmate's name just at the right moment.

The world is certainly small.

Oh wow they all fell for it. How wonderful. I was facepalming throughout the first half of this episode:| but hey at least they went and confronted Kobayashi.
Also her brother is even worse off than Sato. That scene was kinda scary but it was mostly depressing.

initially reminded me of aria from hidan no aria reading manga about "how to get pregnant"


but read the goddamn book goddamnit.

thank god she did.


Just cancel the loan before helping the boy.

I thought yamazaki and misaki wouldnt fall for the pranks. but thats a nice book on evading manipulation misaki has. I would like to read it sometime.

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.

i see a lot of hate for the class rep, but she is really just another gear in the machine, forced to drag the other crabs lower in the bucket just to crawl a little higher. i am really glad, though, that Satoh and the gang didnt get suckered again.

Well now I know how to avoid getting sucked into a pyramid scheme.
I'd also like to add that Satoru isn't even a real hikikomori anymore, he's just using it as a shitty excuse for his shy behavior.

Why tf didn't they read the book first before trying to "cool off" the first time? Now they're going to feel bad for Kobayashi and her failure of a brother and they'll keep the products.

I do agree with the person above me. A hikikomori wouldn't go to someone's house in order to get out of a pyramid scheme, much less call a stranger.

Seeing all fell for it gave me a stroke 😭

Satou, no, you're NOT a hikikomori. I'm so sick of you thinking you're a hikikomori. No, you're not. You're not even close to being a hikikomori. I see you saying "I haven't gone out for a week" that's nothing, most of hikikomoris can easily stay at their home for months, for example, this guy rigth there.
