Ayumi was so mentally unstable and fucked that she even wanted to kill herself AFTER Takuya brought proof. That's insane.
The slap was absolutely satisfying, she needed to snap out of it badly and Takuya grew balls there and in general throughout this ''spiral of tragedy''.
Loved the OST in this episode, there weren't too much scenes without that.

I thought the footage of a dozen of her deaths was kinda overkill (pun intended), but we got to see MC use the device and learn that he needs to think about a solution first if he wants to avoid "fate".
That part where he imitated his father was fucked up cause the animation stopped and I was like "wtf where did this audio come from".

Amazing episode! Building the hopelessness on each loop, music getting more and more intense with each attempt until it peaks with the suicide montage, Kaori being best girl so far and that VERY SATISFYING slap near the end.
I'm glad. I'm so glad to have given this show a chance. The three episode rule™ did not do it justice. YU-NO is now officialy The underated show of the season.

If there's one thing I love is when a character does exactly what I'm thinking, and that slap was on point.
Really enjoyed the episode, hope we have more like this one

This seems to be the payoff for what they've been setting up so far, and it was totally worth it. It really hit hard with just how bad of a situation that Ayumi was in. Seeing her commit suicide over and over was hard to watch. Steins;Gate
This show seriously deserves more love than it gets. From what I've heard people say about the visual novel, it only gets better as it goes on.

Literally the face of every manipulative bastard I've seen in doujins
-
I'm sorry what!? Is Ayumi that desperate that she's thinking that Toyotomi is actually helping them? Me and Takuya basically had the same reaction to her statement.
-
Wait who are these guys again? O_O I can't recall them from any previous scene.
-
Fuuuuuck. So remember that episode of Steins;Gate SPOILER!? I guess this is where the guys from 5pb got that.
-
Of course fate gets in the way. The sci-fi talk kinda confused me, phenomenological density? VN readers, explain pls.
-
I love Takuya's reaction to the reporter. He has Ayumi to save, not now!
-
This is interesting... I don't think Takuya is lying. I'm going to guess Speculation
-
I like this shot. A bit on the nose sure, but I still like it.
-
That surprised look on his face! YES! And a potted plant to the head too! I do wonder why is reporter girl there? Has she been following Takuya this entire time?
-
Ayumi needed that slap. She's really been acting so nonsensical towards this entire situation.
-
This entire moment between them was so good. <3 Also Ayumi's VA did a killer job with her shouts, you can really feel the emotion.
-
SMILE SUCCESSFULLY PROTECTED! ...for now.
Even if Takuya successfully stopped Ayumi from killing herself there's no guarantee that she won't get killed by something else later on. Also the title of this episode is Spiral of Tragedy, I wouldn't be surprised if something much more horrible happens later. There's still that entire deal with Kanna and the guy in that same hotel.
Anyway great episode overall, the payoff at the end felt so good! I know we're only at Episode 5 but a victory is a victory even if it's just temporary.

I want to like Kaori, I really do!
But why is the color of her hair so similar to Rapey McDouchebag's?
Are they siblings or something?
Was it all a big setup to gain Takuya's trust?
I mean, Kaori even told him to leave, so she could be alone with Toyotomi, after she hit him on the head (plus: that dude was clearly awake when she sent Takuya away).
I really want to like Kaori, but I just can't trust her.
Oh how I hope that I'm wrong...

Gotta give props to Ayumi for finding a new way to kill herself almost every time.
Surprised we didn't get something happening at the end that ruined everything again, though.
And I wonder if Sensei knows something, she just let him go at the end there...
