THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Well I thought the episode was pretty fun with more game mechanics. (looks like the game focused one some fantasy themes with main heroine)

Nene got quite a bit this episode as a part time debuggger. She needs more confidence as Aoba's friend! Yum pudding...

Nene is more childish than Aoba xD
It looks like she will still be a debugger in those next episodes, or maybe just one

(give Hifumi more screen time!)

Nenecchi is the best girl, in this show. So naturally, this is the best episode, so far.

Also, she seems far more competent, and knowledgeable, in regards to her job, than Aoba has ever seemed to come off. Those notes were badass. I wonder, if she'll get hired permanently.

I like how Umiko is still scary to anyone who doesn't know her true personality. xD.

Fun episode, No service this week though. :3

As expected Nenecchi did join the company and as a debugger as well. As fun as it may look, Beta Testing/Debugging is a pretty tedious job.
We actually got some shots of the game itself, It reminds me of something but I'm not able to pinpoint what I find the game similar too.

Nenecchi is quite good at her job, That's a lot of notes she has there. Sophia-chan alive route ftw.
It's also funny to see Nenecchi's fickle opinion on the company xD

The pudding theft mystery was adorable, It was so sweet of Rin to cover up for Nenecchi. I was actually surprised she even noticed in the first place, Quite the vigilant and reliable AD she is.

With that attitude of Nenecchi having and with Umiko that seems watching her pretty much, it will be lots of fun in the company. And now Rin has one more person that thought her as a "mother" figure.

Welp it was an episode to show more of Nenecchi's character so I suppose that could certainly be the case. Need more Aoba x Hifumi and Nene has certainly found her special someone ;D

Rin is certainly the series mom; OTP with Ko-chan also ;p

I'm just not seeing the appeal of Nene playing a larger role in this series. She was beyond annoying, truly childish (but not in a cute way), and made this episode my least favorite so far. I've generally felt that this show is about a 5/10 overall, since that's about my tolerance limit, and it's a featherweight show that's not bad for Summer viewing. I now wonder if New Game! will even rate a 4. Amaama to Inazuma is so much better in every way, and even Kono Bijutsubu ni wa Mondai ga Aru!, also a lightweight show, at least has somewhat more engaging characters. Blah.

A 100 yen pudding...That's like a dollar right? I love how Kou and Rin decided to make a big deal out of it. Well, the lesson here is it's still stealing even if the item in question is a dollar or a penny. Not like Nenechi intended to steal the pudding..Although, I wished Nenechi just confessed that she stole but I'm satisfied with how this episode ended.

Also, Nenechi's voice reminds me of that protagonist's little sister from Amagami SS..Am I the only one?

Haha, debugging..They make it look so easy and fun here. That's what I love about this anime in the first place..

5/5 Might be the best episode yet. I laughed way more than the last episode and that "Air-con scene" in episode 5.

Finding a male in a moe anime is like finding a fly in your soup they don't belong their and you don't wan't the touch it again.

Umiko scaring the testers and Nene in particular which was funny to watch.
Nene was very funny too watch in general with her behaviour and way of doing things.

Nene's voice is beyond annoying; it's so grating and reedy. Not happy at all with this episode: prolly due to the focus on Nene, who is an okay... -ish character with a plaguy voice. It's a bit of a shame she appears to be staying for a while, judging by the preview. All the previous episodes were 4-5/5 for me, but this one was just way below the average. 2/5.

When Nene joined the company, I knew its going to get more interesting. Her reactions are so funny. She may look like she's childish and lazying around, but I'm surprised she'a good debugger that got Umiko complimenting her. The company should hire her.

Rin is so nice and such a clever and sharp woman. She knew Nene was the culprit and had a hard time and found a way to make her kind of apologize. She's such a dear. A sweetheart. I like her, but I like her even more this time.

This episode made me smile and giggle. A good way to start the day.

I like the direction this show has taken. Umiko and Nenecchi are great additions. When Nenecchi was shown in episodes 1-6, she was definitely a background character that was always at the end of the episode talking to Aoba on the phone (I couldn't remember her name at that time to be honest). The pudding caper with Nenecchi and Rin ended with both doing the right thing. While Nenecchi didn't have the guts to apologize(partly to protect Aoba), she at least undid what she had done, and Rin was one cool senpai to keep Nene's anonymity.

Kind of weird that nobody even suspected Nenecchi during the whole pudding thing, as they were suspecting that she was a spy the day before, but whatever.

Overall, good episode. Wasn't quite as annoyed with Nene as most of the people here seem be.

I've held a position doing quality assurance for a game company so I can confirm the position is way more difficult than people give it credit for. Not only do you have to deal with the monotony of playing the same thing over and over and over again you have to deal with a non-functional product that could ruin what little fun you were having.

With that said the post credits pointed something out that never crossed my mind at all - comparing the product to previous releases. The products I've worked on were all new IPs so I never ran into that situation, but it is nice to know that the writers of this series have actually sat down and thought about what goes into the development of video games.

So this is my message to the rest of you - don't pass this series off as completely fictional. The overall environment and mood this show has set up is actually extremely realistic to the atmosphere in (American) game companies. Working at a game company that respects its employees and embraces their inner nerds is the best feeling in the world.

Meh, wasn't feeling it this episode. Nenechi came out as annoying more than anything so it kinda ruined the episode for me. This episode was her moment to shine so I guess she won't be too much of a focus from now on which I hope is the case.

Having Nene be the featured character this week was a good idea. Her presence gave it a more refreshing atmosphere. Hopefully Nene is in this a little more because her childish personality is quite entertaining. Thought it was real sweet that Rin covered for Nene when she found out Nene took the pudding. It was very kind of her to take some of the guilt off of her as well.

I'm starting to become a big fan of Umiko. How she interacts with Nene was just great. Need more of her too.

So Nene is working part-time at Aoba's workplace because she's got too much time on her hands with two months of summer vacations. Lol when she was asking how long Aoba's summer vacations are. And the supervisor for the parttimers is Umiko lol. She scares Nene while she was out to surprise Aoba. Lol Aoba noticed Nene but was just playing along and then Nene called for help.

Nene picks out the tiny things which would be ignored by most which turns out to be very useful. And thanks to a bug, Sophia-chan can be saved. But then you don't progress further. Doesn't really matter though since at least Sophia-chan doesn't die. Sophia-chan must live and that's all that matters.

Lol Nene accidentally ate Yagami's pudding and Rin made an announcement to everyone about it making it even more difficult for Nene to come and apologize. Rin made accidentally eating someone's 100 yen pudding such a big deal. And Nene places a replacement pudding in the fridge with an apology note the next day. That was nice of her.

Amusing stuff here. Nene started being a pain in the ass but Umiko dealt with her with only her presence. Lol no one takes the director seriously because she isn't ever serious herself. I mean, she would willingly tell a spy everything if she was cute enough. And I think she meant it. Now they will be taking some time off or at least won't be coming in or would be coming in less (as per the next episode's title). The beta's out so the work is relatively less since the game is nearly finished. They're only left with some finishing touches. And they will be going for a bath together. Also, Nene has some pretty decent sized boobs. Just had to mention that.

Cute and heartwarming non-ecchi episode.

Nene is a nice addition to the workplace.

It's great she would be still working there in the next episode

I enjoyed this episode pretty well. Nene is a nice addition the the team working on the game.

Sure, she might be working part time along with a bunch of others, but it's still an important and tireless task in playing the game and taking note in anything take causes the game to become glitchy or freeze outright.

Add to that Nene is a hardcore fan of the franchise, so it's easy for her to spot the odd dialogue or scenario takes too similar to the earlier games, which the production took note of and fixed it.

Her voice is cute, although others here are either fine with it or find it annoying. Still, compared to Flora from the Asterisk War, Nene's voice is much, much, MUCH more bearable. =D

Next week is the return of the fanservice as the group visits the indoor baths. Looking forward to it! =)
