THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
A 3-day Galapagos Island trip for the design team, they really do need a break from all that creative work on concocting real animals. But yet...the weird designs DO NOT STOP, and Kimura's alien lookalike is one.

The onsen experience is Heaven and Hell for the men and women respectively though. Trying to throw unusable animal designed seafood for a hot pot, yeap. Meido designing sharks in such a test environment, another animal approved: the hammerhead and saw sharks. But instead of saving Kimura, it's raining...sharks?

OH, a crime scene of a dead Mizushima? Time to play Among Us once again with the foodie detective Kimura. Kanamori's flamingo design is part of the case...being pink and spouting pink fluid. Interrogating everyone else without a basis to find the real culprit, mending into Mizushima's rattlesnake vs. Unabara's squirrel instead.

...which leaves the last thing: the note that everyone cannot leave. For one I'd thought that Shimoda is gonna commit suicide, but hiding in the sea is a villa for a surprise from Ueda and Tsuchiya. So it happened that the squirrel wanted to bite Mizushima's head and Shimoda protecting it with the ​ashtray, HEH. So there wasn't a crime scene to begin with.

Enjoy yourselves, Heaven's Design Team!

There are so many details in this episode, I love that Kanamori is joining the female onsen, this anime is very open mind. The unidentified culprit is kinda like detective conan. Sharknado, and snake scarf, alien, etc. I'm ready to abandon Darwinism and side with Creationism LOL

Another good episode. This time, it was a vacation kinda episode for all of them since they do a lot of work and they also need some time off. Great to see all the female gang enjoying the Onsen and the males were just not enjoying, I guess.
Also, Mizushima being dead and all of them trying to find out the criminal was quite funny.
We got Hammerhead and Saw Shark and then a rattlesnake and California ground squirrel accepted in this episode.

Pretty good episode, although i think it wasn't focused on the animals as much as the previous ones. I'm relieved that the "mandatory onsen/hot spings episode" wasn't as stupid as they usually are. I don't know if it was intentional or not, but nice Sharknado reference. Also, was the murder scene a reference to the Danganropna series? The culprit being a black figure with expressive eyes looked exactly as they do in these games. Maybe it wasn't intentional and that's just how they were portrayed.

I'm pretty sure that was a Detective Conan reference :)
It's using the same way to depict the culprit and exists a bit longer than the Danganronpa games.

Huh? Kanamori is a woman. She's a trans woman, so she's chilling with the other girls.

It's a reference to Conan and Kindaichi.

Even at their vacation, they were all still productive designed all of those adorable animals.

Onsen part strongly weird with those alien thingy. But its meat surely tasty enough to forget. Someone drunk onto the ocean, but its created a good hammerhead shark and sawshark. The shark tornado ended up their misery.

The detective part ridiculously fun to watch with all of those mystery. Its led them to created a flamengo, the male version of animal who's breastfeeding his childs with its self-producing crop milk at its throat.

The end of the day used a good ancient grudges fight between a rattlesnack and the brave american squirrel as the conclusion. What about the case? Who care shit, and them enjoy the scenery after that! So, yeah, enjoy your relaxation, designers. All of your good work were all very appreciated....

Good episode. So much for a vacation lmao, but at least they can get to enjoy the dragon palace in the end after all that wild stuff that happened in the hot springs. Those references were cool though, some detective conan references probably and sharknado lmao. First I've heard of a squirrel that fights snakes damn.

the last part that interests me are the Squirrels vs Rattlesnake...these squirrels can hold their own dealing with those pesky snakes!
i hope in the future eps they will include HB! Honey Badgers!
4/5.

I almost cried at this episode seeing a trans women in the women’s hot spring, it’s very nice to see representation. It’s the bare minimum but it makes me smile so much :’)

Man, I really like this show but these shitty subs are doing their hardest to ruin it.

They are all genderless angels/divine beings. None of them really care who bathes with who.

I'd like to agree with you but note quite. If they (writers) really wanted them to be genderless and wouldn't care who bathes with whom then there wouldn't be 2 baths that separate them in the first place. It could've been one large hot spring where everyone can partake similar to a swimming pool. It should've been that way if they were genderless.
"Manga readers are annoying, all they do is complain or spoil the anime we discuss in an anime forum.
They should really do their whining at manga forums.

It's nice of god to give them a vacation. Thou the vacation wasn't as relaxing as it should have been. The whole murder case thing was kinda funny.

No, he was actually designed by the design team though God put in the final work of his creation. Still, he's essentially a child compared to the rest. That's why he struggles with writing, he's essentially a toddler despite being born in an adult body.

The squirrel bit taught me something new today... and with the cuteness of the animation for the snake and squirrel this episode was top-tier!

Nice movie references from Alien to Sharknado. Seems like the murder mystery has been solved, hopefully Mizushima can rest now in heaven.

Sharknado pun and tool based sharks. I'm glad they're painting sharks in a positive light there
