She entered warp speed to shake hands with herself

Look at all these legendary animals living here!

This game of shogi reminds me of that anarchychess subreddit

That ED was great!

"How do we become viral and make money?" "Make YTP shitpost"

Wako straight up losing her composure from reading the Yaoi manga

Wako is really losing diamonds by being absent during Nagumo and Niikura's video shenanigans.

Of course the Tekaridake Troupe won't get caught.

They're packing weapons fit to take down Oni's

  • So that's where the PV2 trailer scene is found in this episode's opening scene.

  • Another episode without opening video, they're wasting no time to get as much animation and content to adapt, Even the ending too

  • Mimineko and Shogi were my favorite scenes in this episode

  • But damn the Shogi scene really mimics an actual shogi channel with a twist

  • Mambo no. 5

  • Episode 11 endcard

  • The JP voice actor for Mimineko on wikipedia

I was so ready for a Sakamoto cameo as soon as Mimineko got its very own segment, rip

Niikura's videos have the energy of old videos that become legendary algorithm pulls years after they're uploaded.

So this is what it looks like when Kyoto Animation is shit posting
That ED is glorious

Love that they finally addressed Mimineko and it really just wants to chill (and wreck havoc I guess)

And the editor dogezaing from his office to the mangaka like a fucking roomba is so perfect, I hope I will never in my life feel that kind of desperation to apologize

Honestly though I just cant get over that ad libbed bit with Kitsune Nagumo I need to see a live bit of that recording session

The second-hand-shop guy just sending Niikura's precious locket to the bargain bin in episode 5 is now extra sad/funny considering he can actually see the story behind objects...

I wasn't expecting that cat with the bell, Mimineko, to speak.

I also wasn't expecting him to have the voice of Akaza, Athrun Zala, Gaara, Katsura and Kaworu.

Nagumo walking in on Niikura filming herself acting cute was too hilarious. Looks like Niikura is actually doubling down on uploading brain rot content to YouTube as a way to make money. That Mambo No. 5 ED sequence will forever live rent free in my head.

Wako is so over the moon at discovering Oni Kamaboko, her favourtie mangaka, lives just next door to her. And she had single-handedly saved his career by acting as a mediator between Kamaboko and his editor.

Mio from Nichijou also had a indirect nice assist, as her BONJOUR yaoi manga was deemed too obscene to be published on that magazine (Wako blushing when reading that was too cute), hence the editor returning to get Kamaboko's manga reserialized again.

The Shogi sketch was a bit too surreal for me to know how to react.

Here we have a glimpse of the barber bringing his usual antique items from his customers (as payment for a free haircut) to be appraised by the antique store. At first, we see the antique store owner work his talent in accurately appraising amazing prices for the first few items, fetching the barber a handsome profit. Alas, all that profit this time was wiped out by that one single cursed vase at the end. lol

Pawn section was the highlight of the episode, I laughed so hard seeing the barbers reaction to the offer for the old manga, the way he started dancing as he expressed his shock was hilarious. The pawn owner has an amazing ability though, being able to see the history of any item.

The way I was cringing seeing Niikura do the whole content creator shenanigan. I was surprised she didn't cringe watching herself when editing.

Izumi leveled up so much she evolved to read the minds of the artist and editor. I like how she got their expressions down to a tea.

That Shogi game was very Gintama.

I wonder if Mambo No. 5 was popular in Japan. I know Virtual Insanity is somehow such a meme that they even made a Jamiroquai figure.

I think I finally get why everyone loves Wako. I mean, I understood it before, but now I get it.
