For some reason, I love Momoe's personal complications more out of the four. Her character really needs to be invested heavily, she brings some interesting topics in the table.

Anyways continuing from the last episode, Ai and Rika fights this sensitive idol fan and manages to win the day. While Momoe meets Miwa (which is really beautiful), and just as I say that, she was actually a molested girl by an executive related to his dad. Dear lord, that is a hard thing to live with every day and it really goes to show how Wonder Egg Priority can go mature in its episodes.

Skipping away from that though, Momoe meets Ai and they have a fun conversation. With Neiru and Rika joining, the Wonder Four is finally completed. As a friendship blooms between the four, let's see how they can solve each other's problems and weaknesses as a whole.

the whole girls suicides vs boys suicides comment rubbed me the wrong way, hopefully they don't just leave it like that. also i'm super interested to see momoe's backstory in full. maybe she rejected the because she was scared of being judged by her peers? or was it internalised homophobia? hopefully they don't go down the route of "momoe was straight so her friend killed herself lol"

Personally, my best episode so far.

Another new character with her own issue as well + more details on the existence of Wonder Eggs c/o Acca and Ura-Acca. I find their gender views in relation to suicide surprising but I think they did not mean that as a conclusive truth but rather as a statistical info. Had to research a bit for that matter.

Thoughts summarized here.

wonderful episode. Momo is now part of the team! So I've seen some comments saying Momo is a tomboy or a Trans or maybe even a lesbian. I can't say much about the tomboy part but she's clearly a girl and wants to be perceived that way, in the few scenes we see she seems uncomfortable when referred to as a boy. And her being a lesbian..hmm I'm not too sure. In the flashback we see her friend try to start something with her but we don't exactly see her reciprocate it.
My guess is her best friend was in love with her but maybe she didn't feel the same way so she committed suicide and momo feels responsible for it and that's why she's trying to get her back..
Also Momo is related to the creepy teacher huh..

From what I understand, Momo is a tomboy and she just wanted to be treated like a girl. As you can see, she's having an identity crisis every time the girl she saved kissed her. She also cries when Rika said she's handsome because of her huge shoulder. She's glad when Ai tells her she's just a normal girl crying
Truth is absolute but human perception of truth is always relative.

Btw I just found this article talking about that dialogue about suicide in episode 4:


https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2021-02-07/wonder-egg-priority-director-shares-cut-context-for-mannequins-sexist-dialogue-scene-in-episode-4/.169258


Basically Neiru was against ura-acca and Acca's ideology about suicide, but the director decided to cut the sentence after the "what!?!?!?" she said before.

Injured in suicide dream world = recover in dream world; receive injury IRL

Petrified in suicide dream world = recover in dream world; nothing happens IRL

????????

This was a good episode, but it feels as if the stakes have been diluted.

I've been wondering this whole episode if Momoe was trans, turns out she just happens to look androgynous. I wonder what is the context behind all that, it seems to be more than her simply being a tomboy (though it is clearto me that she isn't trans). I really like her character for now, I'm looking forward to her backstory.
One thing that confused me a bit though, is the whole thing about boys committing suicide for different reasons than girls. I'm a girl so I'm not really in a position to truly know, but based on my experience boys can have the exact same kind of struggles as girls, they're really not that different actually so it made me a bit uncomfortable to see the show agreeing with this stereotype about boys not being the emotional type.

Edit : Oh wait, actually that whole thing was intentionally questionable, okay, I take back what I said. But it's a shame some dialogue has been cut, it makes the scene confusing.

Ai did great in this episode. The animation was on point as well.
Ai waving those penlights was adorable to me while that music in the background. With Rika's help, Ai managed to defeat that thing and protected those two girls. The episode was rather colorful since the episode name itself is 'Colorful Girls'. Lol

dude its japan its known for being right wing or conservative or traditional thats why the right wingers of 4chan for example loves that country so much

anime is trying to evolve to globalization left wing standards though slowly but surely


And that's why this show is simultaneously trying to make social commentary and broadcast some pretty old-fashioned stereotypes about "boys are ambitious, girls are emotional"?

@Chida No, good for you, of course, but it scares me when people turn yuri into such a fetish that it's already good in itself, no matter in what context or where.

Very heavy as usual. I loved the scene where Momoe changed from boku to atashi. Still not sure how she feels about her gender identity. She has the same last name as that one teacher which is kinda sketch. Specifically if it is true that he is pedo (and the reason why Koito killed herself), then it's likely that Momoe was sexually assaulted as well, and could be the reason she started dressing and talking like a he.

A wonderful episode. It made many trans between Momoe's and Ai's battles, which seemed to divide the content, but in fact the two scenes can be linked in some ways, so it doesn't look like chaos.

Momoe actually wants to be treated as a female, and many parts show Momoe actually does not like her current image but forces herself to maintain it. Only when there is no one around will she show her feminine side, but even at this time she still deliberately prevents herself from showing such a side. Given the fact that she used "boku" to call herself and changed to "watashi" after her psychological defense was broken in the second half, I have an idea that Haruka was rejected by her and for some reason she committed suicide. She thought she killed Haruka, so she began to punish herself by pretending to be a man?

Plus I think the conversation between Acca and Ura-Acca about gender and death is quite interesting. Come to think of it, the "temptation of death" can't mean the idea of "I want to die because the other guy died"? So the battles actually cannot save the dead friends, but only let the MCs die or get saved from the temptation of death? But it is too early to conclude, whether the ones who are saved are the suiciders or the four girls. I guess it will be revealed later!

Now all the four MCs have appeared. Then let's see how the story will unfold, including what happened between the teacher and Momoe, what happened to Koito, and what happened to Neiru.

And where the four MCs are in the dreams and what they involve:
Ai's: school - school violence.
Rika's: flower garden - fan circles.
Momoe's: station - gender awareness.
Neiru's: ???

So only Neiru's dream has yet to be described, but there is no relevant description in the ED, nor does it show the image of her younger sister.

Why was Ai so surprised to hear "Sawaki"? The fights were a little bit dragged on but they had to put those last parts as well (when the targets actually helped Ai+Rika and Momoe).

Another good episode. I see that they will address LGBT + themes.
Well, it's a good thing they didn't forget that girls are immortal on that plane. I thought you were going to forget by the end of ep 3.
About Momoe, I felt it was going to be something with a subversion of the stereotype, as she doesn't feel comfortable being seen as a boy and just dressed “as one” to fit the expectations of others. What about the surname Sawaki, is she related to Sensei?

Those fangirls that were being saved by the main characters in the previous one and this episode as well were funny with their reactions, haha.

I like Momoe, way more than Rika.

Speaking about Rika, I think that she might be different deep inside and only pretend to be selfish or ignorant.

While the traumas can be considered dark for what they cover, the story goes through them at a pace that leaves little impact as none of it is allowed to properly marinate and emotionalize onto the viewer.

At this rate I've changed my expectations on this show as it seems much more light hearted than it's premise makes it out to be so I don't really expect the quality of the story to ramp up more than what I'm seeing so far, but we'll see.

Well damn didn't expect Neiru to do highlevel gymnastics..oh and also being the president of her own company. I'm glad Neiru bluntly told Rika that she isn't funny with the whole irritating wallet thing. Momoe's masculine appearance made me totally overlook her last name (the same as Ai's teacher) until Ai was suprised by it, I wonder what the connection is.

Hm.. So what is this all show metaphor of?.. Like.. It seems that persons, who they're trying to save - that they are in position that they're about to die.. So.. When/if they'd awake.. Would they die in front of persons, who fight for them?.. If so.. Would it be metaphor.. For.. Accepting the death of someone by seeing other people in related situations?.. Only with time you'll understand your feelings more.. As well as will see more people in close similarity situations.. And then you'll finally understand and accept?.. Something like that?.. Not necessary, of course.. Just random thought..

How long is this anime going to keep making these half-hearted dramas? Literally the dramas so far are nothing but a shitty drama to try to move the audience.

I won't even complain because they don't explain many things, because there are still more episodes ahead that I'm 100% sure will have a lot of ridiculous drama.

Ohh I didn't even realise Momoe has the same last name as the teacher dude, either way I really like Momoe so far- her character seems pretty relatable to me in a weird way

And now we've seen all main 4's dreams and backstory except Neiru's. I hope next episode or just some point in the future we learn more about Neiru

The episode was fine but two battles at the same time is kinda annoying to follow. Still, the rest of the episode was great and the new character is a nice adittion!

Huh, a speech about how the factors that drive guys and girls to commit suicide are fundamentally different from each other; I wonder if that's just gonna go uncontested for the rest of the anime. That's an OOF for me personally, Madoka Magica all over again. Other than that the show has been really good so far, though.

This series is seriously wonderful and purely fun.
Now this is really in line of what I'd hope for a story.
Saving girls in dire need from their traumas and etc!
I guess there are some message behind every scene in this series which is really intriguing.
And yeah, I really love these kinds of story...
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

I think Momoe dresses like a guy because maybe her father molests her because she was attractive to him. Dressing like a guy makes her less feminine so her father seems to be less interested in her. I'm thinking the school counselor that visits Ai is actually Momoe's father or a relative who molests her. I didn't catch the quick flashback Momoe was having during her fight with the first egg that was showcased but I'm pretty sure it was showing along the lines of being molested.

I want to add one final point that at the end of these four girls' ordeals that the person they want to see most from suicide do not actually come back to life. Instead each character learns to cope with the suicide in this way by constantly grabbing eggs that relate to them in some way. They may or may not see them again but I think it will only be temporarily until they too disappear like the rest of the eggs.

Why do all the wokes keep on forcing a delusion that a tomboy is trans? SHE even confirms SHE is a GIRL. She was very confident saying it (you don't have to be, nobody's 100% comfortable in their own body because we're not dolls). As if you even need to confirm something you're not "trying" to be, but actually are.
I wonder why they like stereotypes so much and that 20th-century stereotypes equate to what genitals you should have. "She is often mistaken for a boy" - the people here are like literal NPCs in this show.

And the girl was doing it because she was sexually assaulted (it was pushy and desperate, not romantic), not because she's a lesbian.

That's a rather odd reason as to why there are no boys who purchase the eggs or emerge from the eggs.
But I suppose the reverse trap is the closest we'll get to there being a prominent male character.

I didn’t expect this series to have serious topics like SH and SA. I actually never seen an anime handle topic like this! Which is interesting. It’s a sensitive topic, and I’m glad they're taking it seriously. Speaking about the dream, using the egg people’s accessories as a weapon is such a fun and unique technique! It makes the fights way more exciting. I also love each character’s weapon. Though Ai’s looks silly to me. I love all the girl's dynamics!! They have such a cute friendship. I’m kind of confused about Momo’s story but she seems like a cool character overall!! Sad that she keeps getting harassed though :(.
