I think many people are missing the beauty of this episode.

This is essentially the story of Easter Island which is largely considered the historical metaphor for humanity as a whole... i.e. Earth = Easter Island

We watch this and laugh at how obnoxious the fairies can be while we're blindly doing, essentially, the exact same thing.

This could very likely be one of the best episode's of anime I've seen.

I thought this was the reason why people loved it so much? Well, at least for me it is.

This was undoubtedly the best episode so far. The Rise and Fall of "Mago-chan's" Empire.

I honestly don't really get why people love this episode so much. I thought it was good and hammers home that this show is actually a social satire instead of a comedy, but not incredibly amazing. At least, I won't agree that this is the Best Episode of Anime Ever because this one, although funny, wasn't 'crying, choking, can't breathe, sides hurt, might vomit, losing oxygen' funny which other shows have managed to do to me. I do agree with another user here. That Beard episode from Dennou Coil was much better. Similar content and themes as this, but nothing can top "YASAKO IS DEAD".

Also, I just want to point out something. It feels to me that this episode ended at a very heartwarming note. The ending credits sequence had Watashi interacting with her Grandpa and noting to herself that "The last time Grandpa hit me was before I left for school",a surprisingly personal remark, before stating that she has returned to her old everyday life. This feels to me completely out of left field and unrelated to the rest of the episode before it. Sure, one can say that it symbolizes the hope that still exists for man when a civilization falls, however other than that, it's just so random. It's similar to back in the Pioneer/Voyager arc wherein the latter half of the second episode was startlingly dramatic. It feels like this show is trying to hammer in this heartwarming tone to go along with its sarcasm, and while I feel that it does sometimes succeed in doing so (The Time Paradogs Arc really enriched The Assistant's character), it often ends up feeling random and inconsistent.

This might be one of the best 20 minute episodes I've seen, period. We witnessed the rise and fall of a nation and it was cute and hilarious all throughout!

To think something so small and adorable could give rise to a whole civilisation and bring it to ruin in the span of a few weeks, my favourite arc so far.

What an episode. Prior to this one, this show has been 6-7/10 for me, but this episode in particular is 10/10 - simply amazing from the first and till the last line. It could have easily become preachy and heavy-handed, yet it didn't. (I've actually left the first comment on these forums simply because of how much I've enjoyed this one)
