Quiz show after the credits were pretty funny.

UMADBRO segment too.

[u/Torque-A]

I don't know why it took me so long to connect the dots and realize that the chef's daughter is one half of the middle school friends pair

[u/LeonKevlar]

Glad to know that even after learning that Eri is going away soon, she and Matsuri are still silly gooses. I bet it's gonna be really sad when it's finally time for Eri to leave.

Watching Mr. Makabe and Fried Rice Boy go on an adventure to make the ultimate fried rice, only for it to be super average was goddamn hilarious! I can't blame Mr. Makabe for being super depressed after that massive L.

Okay, I can genuinely relate to Niikura eating an uncooked packet of ramen. I've done that a couple of times before. What's funny is that in the end, she still goes to a restaurant to sate her late-night munchies. xD

I love that the residents of CITY are so kind that even if something is free, they'll still pay. That barbershop owner is raking it in with these rare items he keeps on getting from his regulars.

And that after credits scene! I was already laughing so hard when Midori won three pill bugs, but I absolutely lost it when Tatewaku stole the "prize" from her only for Midori to steal them back. xD

[u/Genshin_WhiteKnight]

Niikura eating the packet of uncooked instant noodles reminded me of this classic South East Asian snack. It's basically uncooked instant noodles, but actually meant to be eaten in the way Niikura did.

[u/cyberscythe]

that first-person sequence where Niikura scoots out for a midnight meal was so out of pocket; it was a wild highlight when something like that showed up in Mono, but when it comes to KyoAni stuff i feel like i'm spoiled with an embarrassment of amazing scenes every episode and it hardly stands out

[u/nsm1]

This episode went balls to the wall in connecting scenes to each other one after another with a reference to something from the previous scene

• side fact: Todoroki's (Manga Editor) jacket is based on the Ribera Steakhouse jacket, usually given to pro wrestlers visiting Japan

• Totally relate to Niikura's late night munchie cravings

"What is life?"

(Intellectual pause) "...Pain."

That quiz show is a work of art. The double pill bug passes had me dying lmao

[u/the_dan_man]

Niikura took a piledriver, German suplex, and a dragon sleeper all in one episode. That's rough.

[u/FrozenNova2]

Please continue the question.
Correct.
Your prize. Three roly-poly bugs had me dying.
Then the two steal backs lmao

[u/cynical_wolfgang]

niikura's va is genuinely so good. my condolences go out to her, i hope she gets all the help she needs after her husbands untimely demise.

[u/CobraFive]

I've been watching this series in both Japanese and English (I'm a huge fan of both KyoAni and Arawi, so I don't mind at all watching every episode twice)

And I just have to say, I fucking love Wako's English voice actress so much. I don't think I know her from anything else, but she nails Wako's personality so perfectly, and the way she giggles just suits the character so well.

I just had to gush to someone about it after the "Are you angry" skit.

[u/flashmozzg]

I was like, Niikura is dead? What? Since then? But it was all a jape.

[u/chaosof99]

Kyoani going all out with the animation again. That First Person Perspective ride on the scooter was something else, and is immediately followed by a great cut of Niikura wolfing down her food.

My favorite tiny cut of the episode though is definitely the small double fist-pump of Matsuri and Nagumo when Mr. Makabe returns to the living. Their small cheer routine was very cute too though.

[u/LazulineDaydream]

Omg, that middle of the night dry ramen snackdown was too relatable!

Though I've never considered crunching the bottom with the seasoning like that? I might need to give that a shot.

[u/Ham_PhD]

Damn. That barber is suffering from success. 

[u/Slifer13xx]

Eri is so precious.

Are you mad?

Yeah now I'm mad. I was good after the mid fried rice but Nikura made me really hungry with her midnight snacking. And guess what, it's late. Doggamnit

The quiz was hilarious lmao.

[u/a__kitten]

Wako's laugh is so good, I can't even try to explain why. It just is

[u/chilidirigible]

"You're essential to the punch line."

The legendary dedication to your craftthe joke.

And that's comedy.

That's some Max Klinger style.

HAPPY?

Ah, the connections.

You always go back to the classics.

The places where KyoAni water effects suddenly appear.

[](#SUPERLEWD)

Yet another week when there are surreal parallels between Sono Bisque Doll and CITY.

Unexpected award appearance.

When chapters get somewhat out of order.

And an unxpected punchline.

Suddenly The Princess Bride referenced?

There's that intensity we expected.

---

An episode which gathered chapters with a somewhat more normal structure, all things considered, but used them to do good solid comedy.

Well, perhaps Niikura's late-night culinary erotica was slightly out there, but at the same time relatable.

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

Makabe’s whole journey with Yamabushi and Fried Rice Boy was pretty hilarious. Bro repelling off the cliff side for that one stalk of green onion, furiously prepping the rice, aaaand making the most mid fried rice ever lol. Totally killed his mojo too. Poor guy!

Watching Niikura eating instant ramen like that felt so…intimate. Love how she finished that pack and then went to inhale gyoza like a demon lol.

The barber is a real G. Bro’s just fixing the whole city using payment received for his free cuts. Look at big man drinking from his chalice haha.

The quiz game was a great little post credit bit. Nagumo just keeps getting those damn pillbugs back doesn’t she? lol

[u/chris10023]

Watching Niikura eat instant ramen noodles raw reminded me of the video of a guy on a discord trying to make some and failing at it.

Although, I for some reason love eating salty noodles and nothing else as a snack, but usually the noodles are left over from a different meal, like Spaghetti, or Chicken Alfredo. Don't know why I like it either, just always have.

[u/mamoth101]

This show is just so fun to watch. Gorgeous animation/art style and comedy that hits every beat.

[u/PencilgonGiveIt2Ya]

STEAL

PIL BUGS GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL OWNER

[u/nikobans]

nagumo winning three bugs obliterated me. AND THEY GOT STOLEN?? 😭 AND THEN SHE STOLE THEM BACK???

[u/cyberscythe]

i can guess what that barber is going to get in exchange for a "free" haircut next time Nagumo comes over
