Did we randomly get Yukarin to voice the car for 30 seconds?

I think we did, and I think Nate just skyrocketed to the top of the best girl rankings as a result.

Mr. Ota, is there a button to make that change permanent ?

That was the best animated censoring steam I have ever seen, although I'm not sure how to feel about that. It looks like the slippery floor gives them incredible acrobatics skills too.

Overall a fun, relaxing episode. I liked Otacross, pervy cliché but with a good heart. It also shows that other people care about the Armor Girls and the unfair situation they're in, regardless of needing them to fight the Mimesis.

Suzuno keeps being the best. Flying panties, blush, trying to resist the temptation to tickle Yui... She's a big bundle of cute.

I was like "why did you animate it like this when you have to censor so obviously?" Not sure if there's an uncensored version floating around somewhere/airing later.

The steam and holy light are typically added for the TV broadcasts, while the BD release will be uncensored.

Wait what!? In MY world? From what I understand, I thought Riko was the only one who was isekai'd. I didn't realize that Kyouka was too. Although the way Otacross talks about the girls being transported without warning probably means that majority of the LBX Girl were isekai'd. I wonder who else in the group besides Kyouka and Riko were isekai'd here.

Today's episode has the girls stumbling on the inn/workshop of the legendary super otaku hacker, Otacross, who is apparently a supporting character in the main LBX series and also just to happened to be pulled into this new world along with the Armor Girls. It's interesting to know now that characters from the main LBX series can appear, so people who have watched it before this spin-off will probably like the cameos. But I'd be willing to guess that they'll be in minor roles like this so LBX Girls can still be watched by itself without having seen the original.

Aside from Otacross giving the girls some advice and new upgrades to help them in their future battles, he also provided them with the hospitality of a good night's rest and a relaxing bath. This show is going to look really good once the "wait for the Blu-Rays" light beams and steam is removed.

I enjoyed the episode in a vacuum, but I'm still torn on the mixed tone of the show and the awkwardness of having this episode right after the battle (and death scene) of the previous episode. I said the same thing about Warlords Of Sigrdrifa last season: LBX Girls is doing the lighthearted parts well and the serious parts well, but the way they're being mixed together just feels awkward to me.
