| i'm so confused. i really like weird anime, but wasn't expecting this to turn into this weird out of nowhere. |
  |
| This episode's idea of Vuonna 85 was trippy. The eighties, huh... |
 |
| I really want clean images of the floppy disk girl art from the end credits to use as PC wallpaper. |

| Also want to say after reading negative comments, I thought this was one of the best episodes yet. It made me want to read the manga. Love that there is something deeper going on than just a simple time travel story. It's like a real visual novel. |

| Are we still in the same show? This episode had a whole different vibe to it. It was different from the normal, "let's make a game" setting, this episode got me thinking about stuff. What does it mean to imagine? What does it mean to be human? In the end, it was an amazing episode, I wonder if we will meet Echo 1 or 2 again, this episode motivates me to read the manga and see what happens after the anime ends. |

| wtf did I just watch 😭 |
 |
| This show is such fun. I don't mind the tonal shift at all. |
| Moments like this always make me wonder how far scientific progress can go in just 10-15 years and how backward our current technology will look years from now. |

 |
| @reapercreeper he will since he’s a former mod . This happens in every thread |
 |
| Now he knows how Konoha feels and what she goes through each time. I hope they can bond more over it now. |
| The episode was almost as weird as Stark's post lol |
| I find it amusing how so many posts in this thread are complaining about how confusing, pointless, unnecessary, etc this episode was, when it was literally about the nature & importance of imagination in the face of cookie-cutter, linear thinking 😆 Lol, humans, amirite? 🤷🏻♂️ |

I'm unsure if Echo 1 2 and 3 are aliens or beings from another dimension that were seemingly trying to figure out how to get back home or transcend their existence but needed imagination to do so but they along the way wound up really liking bishoujo games. That was trippy.
Oh so Echo 2 was that girl in beginning of Ep3 that everyone here suspected was a god...well not too far off we were
I wonder if Konoha will be mad Mamoro used up one of her games and got to meet these beings without her
Huh? Do you have a phobia of drinking bird desktop physics toys?

This was one of Konoha's deeper time dives as she goes back to year 1985.
PC-98 is still apparently a thing in this timeline and a company is involved in making a game with such technology. Gotta say, Konoha is bold for getting into this timeline.

Don't think there's been a higher-res post of these, but here's them without the credits:

| Cool to learn a bit about how the industry was in the 80s, would've liked to have more of that. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Personally I think the last thing this (comedy / supernatural) show needed was a full episode devoid of the main character trying in under a half hour to unpack the depths of the human psyche but if some people enjoyed it good for them. |
| I thought Mamoru would travel in the future but now he got in the past in the 80s, but that was.... surprising and confusing with these echo alien guys |

That was a very interesting episode, but one I'm a bit confused on what I just witnessed. Don't really understand what the point this episode was trying to get across other than the power of imagination. Looked quite pretty in the last few minutes though, good directing there.
| @Mcsuper same. loved the concept of sup being mc but the episode kinda makes no sense. And the cast their are ... robots ? kinda hard to find the logic. |
Morpheus: The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work... when you go to church... when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth. Neo: What truth? Morpheus: That you are a slave, Neo. |
| Just when I thought Konoha had an annoying voice, a green haired girl appears... what's with the red band? This was the most bizarre episode I've ever seen. What the heck happened?? |
 This never updates so that's cool |
| One of the best and wildest episodes this season. I loved how it was deep, but not preachy or overly convoluted. Simple, but prescient. Obvious they were aliens from their mannerisms, technology, and outfits. That was quite definitely real, he even laments at the end he wasn't able to bring that merchandise back. Looks like they used that device to open a wormhole and send him back. I thought all of this was fairly obvious on its face. |
 |
| what the hell just happened lol while i understood most of it for the 1st 15 minutes, the rest was so random, is this how people feel watching Evangelion and Steins gate? :D anyway, aliens or whatever, it was interesting to see how Echo1 just makes so many games and how cute Echo2 was with her dressing |

fav "new" girls from spring <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks |
| FUCK! There is only one possible explanation for that fabulous chapter: LSD and acids... very powerful acids! It's the only possible explanation! That and... hehehe with her dressed like that I could let my imagination fly high!   |
| Yep. The 80's on some weird shit as per usual. That's not my time, but it just always comes off as this weird transition time to me. Like art feels like it goes backwards and everything. Seems like an oddly good time to explore what imagination is. |
| Imagination running so wild it can cause time-space paradoxes? SIGN ME THE FUCK UP BABY |
| Wow, too much sci-fi in one episode. 😖 |
| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| The end has HEAVY Kyubey feel into it, i was expecting them to eat the whole world before sending him back to another world |
| That was insanely good. I really really loved that. |
